 *Day 108/365 (April 18) PORTIONS TO READ*:


*The deaths of Saul and Jonathan*

Ziklag spoiled - I Samuel 30:1-6 

David pursues the Amalekites and recovers everything- I Samuel 30:7-20 

David's distribution of the spoil - I Samuel 30:21-31 

Battle positions -I Samuel 28:4 

Saul consults the witch of Endor - I Samuel 28:3, 5-19 

Saul's terror - I Samuel 28:20-25

*A thought*:

In God's sovereignty, the destruction of David's home - which outwardly seemed a calamity - was but the preparation for his next phase of service - kingship. The words "calamity" and "sovereignty" are incompatible.

*Week #16 Memory Verse*:

II Corinthians 4:8-9

"We are hard pressed on every side, but not crushed; perplexed, but not in despair; persecuted, but not abandoned; struck down, but not destroyed"
