Daily Bible Reading – May 2022 God’s Renewing Word of Promise预览
May 11
Introduction
In each of the Philistine cities where the Covenant Box was sent, the Philistines were stricken with tumors while the Covenant Box was in their possession.
Scripture Reading
1 Samuel 5:1-12
Today’s Key Verse: 1 Samuel 5:11b
[The Philistines said:] “Send the Covenant Box of Israel back to its own place, so that it won’t kill us and our families.”
Reflect
How many Philistine cities received the Covenant Box? What happened in each city? How do you envision the panic that is described in today’s reading? What did the people ask their leaders to do?
Pray
Loving and merciful God, you are the true and living God. I worship and praise you. Rule in my heart and teach me your ways. Amen.
Tomorrow’s Reading
1 Samuel 6:1—7:1: The Philistines return the Covenant Box.
