B90X: Day 24

Hello, friends and companions -

I have a question for you. Why was Goliath so surprised when David hit him with a slingshot?

The thought had never entered his head before.
*Ba-dum, chhh!!* :D

The first order of business is to admit that this isn't Michael; it's his sister, Alysha. Mike has been sick this week, and he was doing especially poorly today. I called him about a half hour ago to ask a question, and he could barely focus. Thus, I am doing today's email instead of him. Please pray for a speedy recovery when you think of it!

Second item on the docket --> Today's reading! That is (was?? lol) 2 Samuel 22:19 to I Kings 7:37. Keep on keeping on - we're over a quarter of the way through! If anything is worth the time, this is!!

Questions from today's reading:
1. How many mighty men did David have in all?
2. Which of the three judgments for David's sin occurred?
3. Which of David's sons tried to set himself up as king without his father's permission?
4. How long was David's reign?
5. How many years did it take Solomon to build the Lord's temple? His own palace?

Yesterday's answers:
1. What did David do after his first son by Bathsheba had died? He arose from where he lay fasting and praying, washed and anointed himself, changed his clothes, went into the house of the Lord to worship, and then returned home to eat. (v. 12:18-20)
2. Why did Absalom tell his servants to set Joab’s barley field on fire? Joab would not come when Absalom sent for him. (v. 14:28-33)
3. Which son of David took David’s concubines as the Lord had foretold to David through Nathan? Absalom. (v. 12:11-12, 16:22)
4. Where did Jonathon and Ahimaaz hide to avoid Absalom’s servants? In the well in the court of a man’s house in Bahurim (v. 17:18-21)
5. What did the people in Abel of Beth Maachah do to Sheba the son of Bichri and why? They cut off his head and threw it out to Joab and his men in order to stop their attack on the city. (v. 20:15-22)

God bless,
