Daily Scripture & Questions
1 Samuel 25-27 Nabal greatly insulted David.  How did God use Abigail to keep David from avenging that insult?  How is David's trust (see 26:22-24) a pattern we should follow?
 
Family Devotions—Scripture & Questions
Read I Samuel 25:1-38. Do you ever get mad when someone insults you? How did Abigail keep David from making a big mistake by getting even with Nabal in his own strength? Is there anyone you want to get even with right now?
 
Biblical Prayer Focus
Psalm 58:6-9
 "O God, break the teeth in their mouths; tear out the fangs of the young lions, O LORD!  Let them vanish like water that runs away; when he aims his arrows, let them be blunted.  Let them be like the snail that dissolves into slime, like the stillborn child who never sees the sun.  Sooner than your pots can feel the heat of thorns, whether green or ablaze, may he sweep them away!"

Give the heavenly Father the things that churn you up inside.  Be honest with Him about the folks who are treating you or other people wrong.  Plead for justice for the oppressed and vindication for the harassed.
