Day 155 Bible Readings – 2 Samuel 5: 19 (ESV)

2 Samuel 5 & 6, Acts 2: 1-21, Psalm 89: 19-29

2 Samuel 5: 19 (ESV)

“And David inquired of the Lord, “Shall I go up against the Philistines? Will you give them into my hand?” And the Lord said to David, “Go up, for I will certainly give the Philistines into your hand.”

I love verse 19 from 2 Samuel 5. Even after David became king over all of Israel, he still consulted with Father-God on what to do about the Philistines. He not only asked Father-God if he should go up against the Philistines, David asked if he was going to have victory. Father-God told David he would give David victory over the Philistines. David gives believers in Jesus Christ an example of how important it is seek to Father-God’s guidance and advice in everything we do, even after we achieve in life everything that was promised to us. David shows us that we need to make prayer the first thing we do when we need to make a decision in good times and bad times. I try to pray to Father-God now for every decision I make, large or small, so I can be assured that I have God’s guidance for everything in my life.

If you enjoyed reading about my thoughts on this Bible verse, find yourself a good Holy Spirit filled church where you can hear the word of God preached to help you develop a deeper relationship with Father-God, Jesus Christ, and the Holy Spirit.
