1 Kings 1-3, Psalm 94
1 Kings 2:3-4 (NLT)
“Observe the requirements of the Lord your God, and follow all his ways. Keep the decrees, commands, regulations, and laws written in the Law of Moses so that you will be successful in all you do and wherever you go. If you do this, then the Lord will keep the promise he made to me. He told me, ‘If your descendants live as they should and follow me faithfully with all their heart and soul, one of them will always sit on the throne of Israel.’”
In 1 Kings 2:3–4, David gives final instructions to his son Solomon before his death. He tells Solomon to walk in obedience to the Lord—following His ways and keeping the commands given in the Law of Moses. David also reminds Solomon of the promise the Lord made to him: that his descendants would continue to rule, if they remained faithful and obedient to Father-God.
These verses remind believers that the Lord is faithful to His promises, and that obedience is part of walking in those promises. David’s words also show that true strength does not come from our own ability, but from living in alignment with the Lord’s guidance. As Solomon was instructed to follow God’s Word, believers today are called to do the same.
David’s lineage continued through generations of kings until the Babylonian exile, and ultimately, the Lord’s promise was fulfilled through Jesus Christ, our eternal King. This reminds us that God’s promises extend beyond what we can see in a single lifetime.
When I read these verses, David’s advice seems simple, but I know from my own life that following the Lord’s will is not always easy. David trusted the Lord deeply and sought His guidance, especially in times of decision. Yet even he faltered when he did not seek or follow the Lord’s direction.
David is described as a man after God’s own heart, and his life reminds me that knowing the Lord comes through engaging with His Word. As I continue to read and align myself with His truth, I grow in understanding His heart and how to live in a way that honors Him.
If these verses resonate with you — if you feel drawn to place your faith in Jesus Christ, the One whose Word teaches us how to walk in alignment with Father-God’s heart — this may be your moment. Open your heart to Him. Speak to Him in prayer. Tell Him you trust Him and desire to walk with Him. He is faithful, and He will meet you exactly where you are.
Heavenly Father, I give You my life. Please forgive me for all my sins and wash me clean through the blood of Jesus. I believe in my heart that You raised Jesus from the dead, and I confess with my mouth that Jesus is my Lord and Savior. I receive Your forgiveness and the gift of salvation. Thank You, Lord—I am saved, I am forgiven, I am clean, and I am made new in Jesus’ name. Amen.
If you prayed this prayer, welcome to the family of Father-God! I encourage you to find and join a Holy Spirit–filled, full-Gospel, Bible-based church where you can grow in your faith and experience the Lord’s love, signs, wonders, and miracles in your life.

Day 93 Bible Readings for April 5 Happy Easter - 2 Samuel 22:33-34 (NLT)
He is risen! He is risen indeed!
2 Samuel 22-24, Psalm 93
2 Samuel 22:33-34 (NLT)
“God is my strong fortress, and he makes my way perfect. He makes me as surefooted as a deer, enabling me to stand on mountain heights.”
n 2 Samuel 22:33–34, we read part of David’s song to the Lord after he was rescued from his enemies. David describes the Lord as his strength, protector, and refuge. He recognizes that Father-God is the source of his security and stability. When we trust in the Lord, we are guided by Him, and He directs our steps.
David uses the image of a deer to describe how the Lord strengthens him. Deer are known for their ability to move confidently over difficult terrain. In the same way, David understood that God gave him the strength and agility to navigate life’s challenges. Because he relied on the Lord, he was able to stand securely, even in uncertain and dangerous situations.
These verses remind believers that David models a life of dependence on God. He consistently sought the Lord’s guidance, especially before going into battle. The Lord protected him through seasons of danger, including when Saul was pursuing him. Despite his difficulties, David remained devoted to the Lord and continued to praise Him.
David’s life also shows that when he failed to seek the Lord, he was more likely to fall into sin. Yet even then, his heart remained sensitive—he repented and returned to God. His example reminds us of the importance of continually seeking the Lord’s guidance in every area of life.
When I reflect on this, I see parallels in my own life. When I ignore the guidance of the Holy Spirit or act on my own desires, I tend to struggle. But when I follow His leading, even difficult situations become easier to navigate. Relying on the Lord brings clarity, direction, and a sense of steadiness as I move forward.
If these verses resonate with you — if you feel drawn to place your faith in Jesus Christ, the One who strengthens you and guides your steps — this may be your moment. Open your heart to Him. Speak to Him in prayer. Tell Him you trust Him and desire to walk with Him. He is faithful, and He will meet you exactly where you are.
Heavenly Father, I give You my life. Please forgive me for all my sins and wash me clean through the blood of Jesus. I believe in my heart that You raised Jesus from the dead, and I confess with my mouth that Jesus is my Lord and Savior. I receive Your forgiveness and the gift of salvation.

Day 92 Bible Readings for April 4 - Psalm 92:12-14 (NLT)
2 Samuel 19-21, Psalm 92
Psalm 92:12-14 (NLT)
“But the godly will flourish like palm trees and grow strong like the cedars of Lebanon. For they are transplanted to the Lord’s own house. They flourish in the courts of our God. Even in old age they will still produce fruit; they will remain vital and green.”
In Psalm 92:12–14, the psalmist describes how those who love the Lord will flourish. Palm trees are known for their long life and ability to thrive even in desert conditions. In ancient Israel, they symbolized resilience, endurance, and victory. In the same way, those who love and obey the Lord are able to flourish even in difficult circumstances. They do not simply survive—they thrive because they are sustained by Father-God.
The psalmist also compares the righteous to the cedars of Lebanon, which were known for their strength, durability, beauty, and usefulness. These trees were often used in the construction of temples and palaces. This image shows that those who trust in the Lord are strong, steady, and deeply rooted in Him.
The passage goes on to promise that those who are planted in the Lord will continue to bear fruit even in old age. They will remain spiritually vibrant and active, rather than declining into fruitlessness. This reminds believers that a life rooted in God does not diminish over time, but continues to grow and produce.
These verses remind me that the Lord’s promises extend throughout every stage of life. As we trust and love Father-God, we can expect ongoing growth and fruitfulness, even as we age. We do not need to fear being forgotten or becoming ineffective, because the Lord continues to work in and through us.
When I reflect on this, I am encouraged to remain rooted in the Lord through His Word and to stay aligned with His plan. As long as I continue to walk with Him, my relationship with Father-God will keep growing and maturing over time.
If these verses resonate with you — if you feel drawn to place your faith in Jesus Christ, the One who sustains you and remains with you throughout your life — this may be your moment. Open your heart to Him. Speak to Him in prayer. Tell Him you trust Him and desire to walk with Him. He is faithful, and He will meet you exactly where you are.

Day 91 Bible Readings for April 3 Good Friday - Psalm 91:14-16 (NLT)
2 Samuel 16-18, Psalm 91
Psalm 91:14-16 (NLT)
“The Lord says, ‘I will rescue those who love me. I will protect those who trust in my name. When they call on me, I will answer; I will be with them in trouble. I will rescue and honor them. I will reward them with a long life and give them my salvation.’”
In Psalm 91:14–16, we read about the Lord’s promises to those who love Him. Father-God declares that He will deliver and protect those who love Him, know His name, and trust in Him. He promises that when we call on Him, He will answer us and be with us in times of trouble. Through His presence and the guidance of the Holy Spirit, He rescues and sustains us. The Lord also promises to satisfy His people with long life and to show them His salvation.
When I read these verses, they encourage me to deepen my relationship with the Lord. I want my life to reflect that I love Father-God and know Him through His Word. I desire to trust fully in His protection and to have confidence that He hears me when I call on Him. I do not want to live with doubt about His presence, but to rest in the assurance that He is with me in every trial, giving me strength and comfort.
Recently, when I was very sick, I felt my faith being tested. I experienced symptoms I did not understand, and at first, I was so focused on how I felt that I did not immediately turn to the Lord. But I continued listening to preaching during the day and Scripture at night. By the third day, I began calling on the Lord to heal me. When I woke in pain during the night, I cried out to Father-God.
By the fourth day, the pain began to lessen, and I became more aware of the Holy Spirit’s guidance in how to care for my body. By the fifth day, I was improving, though I still had some fear that the symptoms might return. But by the sixth day, I knew the pain was completely gone. I called on the Lord, and He answered me. He delivered me, just as He promised.
If these verses resonate with you — if you feel drawn to place your faith in Jesus Christ, the One who answers those who call on Him — this may be your moment. Open your heart to Him. Speak to Him in prayer. Tell Him you trust Him and desire to walk with Him. He is faithful, and He will meet you exactly where you are.
