   Today in the Word 1 Chronicles 11:1-9

   Today in the Word we are looking at 1 Chronicles 11:1-9. If you struggle to read the bible, or wonder if you're getting everything out of it that you could, then let's look at it together! Today brings us to David becoming king and taking Jerusalem. But there's a little backstory behind these nine verses that I think will add some good context. See you tomorrow!

   Today in the Word

   Today in the Word: 1 Chronicles 7-10 includes some gems hidden among the list of names. Among them is a description of the men of the tribe of Asher: choice men, brave warriors and outstanding leaders. What a beautiful thing to pray for the young men (and older ones too!) in your life. There's also a note about the men who were the gatekeepers in the tent, tabernacle, and the musicians too! And finally, there's a recap of King Saul's death and the sad reality that he walked away from God.

   Whole-hearted Devotion

   We're skipping some names and sections of chapters, and moving on to Joshua 14 and the account of Caleb. Caleb was one of the spies who came back to Moses and whole-heartedly encouraged the rest of the children of Israel to take the land God had promised. He trusted God completely. Now, 40 plus years later, he was waiting to finally obtain the land he was promised. Takeaways: 1. God's promises are reliable. What God says is as good as done. 2. We will always be at war. We don't retire from being a Christian, and so the battle rages on until God takes us home. 3. Age is just a number. Young or old, we are entirely usable to God until he brings us home. Blessing and commission: May God grant you great power to influence many for kingdom good and God's glory, and may you trust in God's promises and use them to fuel the important kingdom work God has equipped you to do.
