Father, grant us wisdom and discernment. Open our eyes, hearts and minds to know You more. Allow us to see your kindness and live your truth. We pray in the name and authority of Jesus, the way, the truth, and the life, according to Your good and perfect will. Amen.
“So David sent messengers to the men of Jabesh Gilead, and said to them, ‘You are blessed of the LORD, for you have shown this kindness to your lord, to Saul, and have buried him. And now may the LORD show kindness and truth to you. I also will repay you this kindness, because you have done this thing. Now therefore, let your hands be strengthened, and be valiant; for your master Saul is dead, and also the house of Judah has anointed me king over them.’” (2 Samuel 2: 5-7 NKJV)
