*This weekly newsletter will share about the Bible Breakdown podcast, things about RLC, and my favorite things from around the web. My prayer is it will help you know God better.
Hello friends. Happy Saturday!
ποΈ Behind the Breakdown Recap
We are finally ending the genealogies. Whew. Now we get into some of the greatest stories in the entire Old Testament. I cannot wait to read them together.
π§ My Favorite BibleBreakdown Episode This Week>>>
π Scripture. πͺ
(1 Chronicles 10:13-14) So Saul died because he was unfaithful to the Lord. He failed to obey the Lordβs command, and he even consulted a medium instead of asking the Lord for guidance. So the Lord killed him and turned the kingdom over to David son of Jesse.
Observation: Saul had such a great start but such a tragic end. The book of Proverbs says that a strong beginning does not guarantee a strong conclusion. We cannot rest on yesterday. We must win the day, or tomorrow will be lost. This doesnβt mean we strive for perfection but pursue a closeness with the Lord daily. We trust Him to lead us and never lean on our own understanding. We consistently lean into Him so He can direct our paths.
Application: Imagine what you would like people to say about you one day. Is the way you are living going to deliver it? What do you need to adjust?
Prayer: Thank You for leading us when we donβt know where to go and cannot see our way ahead.
