Volume 10-46, 2 Samuel 22-24, Psalm 108
https://biblehub.com/nkjv/2_samuel/22.htm This is why you just can’t “read” the Bible, you must study it. Verse 1, “Then David spoke to the Lord the words of this song, on the day when the Lord had delivered him from the hand of all his enemies, and from the hand of Saul.” If this is a song, shouldn’t Continue reading

Volume 10-45, 2 Samuel 20-21
https://biblehub.com/nkjv/2_samuel/20.htm It doesn’t matter how good you are, how well you treat others, how much of a Christian you are, you will always have foes. They will either be arrogant and have no respect for you simply because of their own self-absorption, they will be jealous of you or your position, or they will think Continue reading

Volume 10-44, Psalms 41, 55, 2 Samuel 19
https://biblehub.com/nkjv/psalms/41.htm These psalms were written by David while his army was at war with the men of Absalom. When David returned to Jerusalem after the death of Absalom, he was caught between a rock and a hard place. Even though Absalom was full of wickedness and had every intent to kill his own father, as Continue reading

Volume 10-43, Psalm 63, 2 Samuel 17-18
https://biblehub.com/nkjv/psalms/63.htm Remember we are studying the Bible in chronological order, including the psalms that are known. We just finished the majority of the psalms that have already occurred in addition to those that were unknown, but as I stated before, we will still encounter different psalms in the future. And Psalm 63 was a psalm Continue reading

Volume 10-42, 2 Samuel 15-16
https://biblehub.com/nkjv/2_samuel/15.htm We’ve spent a lot of time studying the Book of Psalms, then a few chapters in the Book of Chronicles, and how we have to go back and pick up where we left off with King David. And the last we studied, Absalom had killed his brother Amnon, then Absalom fled. Joab was trying Continue reading

Volume 10-41, 1 Chronicles 23-27
https://biblehub.com/nkjv/1_chronicles/23.htm David is growing old and near the sleep of death, and he makes his son Solomon the King of Israel. But before he dies, he reorganizes (my word, not God’s), the Levites. Remember, the Levites did not receive in inheritance in the land of Israel as their tribe was to minister to the people; Continue reading

Volume 10-40, 1 Chronicles 22
https://biblehub.com/nkjv/1_chronicles/22.htm A radio station I used to listen to on my way to work had a short blurb each morning called “Shower Thoughts”, and it was always something that was dark humor (just like mine) or something really wacky. For example, one was “If you take a donut hole, and put it in the hole Continue reading

Volume 10-39, 1 Chronicles 21
https://biblehub.com/nkjv/1_chronicles/21.htm Just for refresher, I’m studying the books of the Bible in chronological order, the timeline of the events as most feel they transpired. The problem with the Book of Psalms, which we just finished, is that the author and the time period in which they were written is unknown, so we had to cover Continue reading

Volume 10-38, Psalms 147-150
https://biblehub.com/nkjv/psalms/147.htm As I read Psalm 147, there was no particular verse that stood out to me, yet the psalm in it’s entirety did. What the psalmist says strikes me as the description of a father. We know God is our Heavenly Father, but his actions and character are virtually the same as our earthly father. Continue reading

Volume 10-37, Psalms 132, 134, 137, 146
https://biblehub.com/nkjv/psalms/132.htm Psalms 132 and 134 are songs of ascents, like others in this section of the Bible. Apparently the term was derived from fact that Jerusalem sits on a high hill, and the children of Israel would sing these songs as they ascended the hill to Jerusalem for one of the three annual Jewish Festivals.
