Today’s quote and prayer from
“Psalms 365: Develop a Life of Worship and Prayer
On the eleventh day of the eleventh month, we honour those who gave their lives in service for their country with this reading and meditation from Psalm 11.
Today’s Reading: Psalm 11
Listen to today’s reading by Jonathan Dent:
LORD God,
you are my refuge.
Help me to stand my ground
when my faith is under attack
and help other believers to do the same
by the grace of Jesus.
Our faith rests on you,
Lord Jesus.
Amen.

Saul replied,
“You are not able to go out
against this Philistine and fight him;
you are only a young man,
and he has been a warrior from his youth.”
But David said to Saul,
“Your servant has been keeping his father’s sheep.
When a lion or a bear came
and carried off a sheep from the flock,
I went after it,
struck it and rescued the sheep from its mouth.
When it turned on me,
I seized it by its hair,
struck it and killed it.
Your servant has killed both the lion and the bear;
this uncircumcised Philistine will be like one of them,
because he has defied the armies of the living God.
The LORD who rescued me from the paw of the lion
and the paw of the bear
will rescue me from the hand of this Philistine.”
Saul said to David, “Go, and the LORD be with you.”
(1 Samuel 17:33-37 NIV)*

New from David Kitz
James—the brother of Jesus—who was this man? What evidence do we have that this “brother of our Lord” even existed?
David Kitz digs deep into archeology, family dynamics, church history, and the biblical texts. What emerges from his research is a portrait of a decisive, pivotal leader who embodied the will and character of Jesus Christ.
But how did James—James the unbeliever—transform to become a leader who changed the course of world history? In these pages you will uncover the answer and rediscover for yourself the life-changing power of the gospel.
