21 Days Fall 2026 : Day 10
❖ Day 10 The Kindness of God Lived Out
(READ: 1 Samuel 20:14-17, 42; 2 Samuel 4:4; 2 Samuel 9:3-4)
2 Samuel 9:3
“The king said, ‘Is there not yet anyone of the house of Saul to whom I may show the kindness of God?’ And Ziba said to the king,’There is still a son of Jonathan who is crippled in both feet.’”
Father, thank You for King David’s example to honor You and bless the family of one who was his enemy, showing us that we can learn how to show Your kindness, favor, blessing and compassion on those who have suffered misfortune due to no fault of their own. It doesn’t matter whether they are related to a friend or foe when it comes to covenant promises that were made and intended to be kept. It may be that these promises kept will one day be for the blessings and benefits of our loved ones.
Help us to be merciful to others, just as You have been merciful to us when we haven’t deserved it. You have shown us Your kindness time after time and we thank You for calling us to do the same and may it glorify You. In Jesus’ name, amen.
