2 Samuel 16

Read chapter

Dear God,

Thank You for Your Word and for this chapter. Thank You for reminding me that even in the midst of betrayal and hardship, Your plans and purposes will prevail. Help me to trust in Your sovereignty and not be overcome by fear or bitterness.

Please give me the grace to respond to adversity with faith and humility, just as David did when he was faced with the cursing of Shimei. Help me to trust in Your justice and not seek revenge on those who may wrong me.

I pray for the strength to endure and the wisdom to discern Your will even in difficult circumstances. May I always turn to You for guidance and find rest in Your presence.

In Jesus’ name, Amen.
