Misunderstood Kindness, Conflict, and God’s Victory | 1 Chronicles 19 Oct 4, 2025

In today's episode of Reading the Bible Daily with Dave (October 4, 2025), we turn to 1 Chronicles 19. David's act of kindness to Hanun is misinterpreted, leading to conflict with the Ammonites and their allies. Yet even in the midst of misunderstanding and hostility, God shows His faithfulness, protecting His people and giving them victory through His chosen king. Scripture: 1 Chronicles 19:1–19 Theme: Misunderstood kindness leads to conflict, but God grants victory through His anointed king. Christ-Centered Hope: Just as David's kindness was rejected, so Christ's kindness was rejected by men. Yet through His death and resurrection, Christ triumphed, securing eternal victory for His people. Key Takeaways: • Good motives may be twisted by suspicion, but God's purposes prevail. • True courage flows from confidence in God's sovereignty. • Opposition to Christ, God's anointed King, is always futile. Tomorrow's episode: 1 Chronicles 20 – Further Victories, Even Over Giants. For more from Reading the Bible Daily with Dave visit: https://servantsofgrace.org/reading-the-bible-daily-with-dave/
