Daily Bible Reading Day 111

1Samuel 30-31; Luke 17:20-37. David and his men return to Ziklag only to find that the Amalekites have raided it and taken everything, including wives and children. So David calls for the priest's ephod and inquires of God. God says go, and they go. They find the Amalekites and kill almost all and take back their possessions, wives, and children. Meanwhile Saul and Israel fight the Philistines but they are too strong. They kill Saul's sons and Saul falls on his sword.

This section is about the kingdom of God and judgment. But not final judgment. It's about God judging Israel for crucifying Jesus.
