Meditate on verse 12.

Be strong, and let us show ourselves courageous for the sake of our people

and for the cities of our God; and may the LORD do what is good in His sight.

David’s kind intentions to send condolences were misunderstood and assigned as false motives by Hanun, the Ammonite king. Messengers sent on behalf of King David were horribly humiliated by Hanun, resulting in war between David’s armies and the combined forces of the Ammonites and Arameans. Under the command of Joab and Abishai, the Israelites were victorious.

Have your intentions, words, and actions ever been misunderstood? Christians are often lied about and humiliated by those who do not know God and His Word. Be encouraged by the story of David and Hanun. “The LORD is faithful, and He will strengthen and protect you from the evil one” (2 Thessalonians 3:3). King Jesus and His armies will be victorious (Revelation 19:11-21).

Pray 2 Samuel 10:12 over yourself and those for whom you stand guard as a faithful, prayerful watchman (Isaiah 62:6-7).

“LORD, help _______ and me be strong, and let us show ourselves

courageous for the sake of  Your people and for You, God.

  LORD, do what is good in Your sight.

In Your name, Jesus~”
