Reflection on Historical Writings

Trusting God thru His Promises

The purpose of the Historical Writings of Judges and Ruth as well as Ezra, Nehemiah and Esther is to
reveal the redemptive plan of God.
On Monday, we learn from Judges 7
that God Loves to Do the Impossible.
On Tuesday, we learn from Ruth 2/4
that God Is Faithful & Redeems Us.
On Wednesday, we learn fr Ezra 1-3
that God Is Faithful & Restores Us.
On Thursday, we learn from Neh 1/2
that God Puts His Word In Yr Heart.
On Friday, we learn from Neh 8-10,
that God Strengthens & Gracious.
On Sat, we learn from Esther 8/9,
that God’s Mighty Deeds Spur Us.
Let us humble ourselves and pray
and seek His face. Help us O God
be Christ’s disciples who trust You;
for You truly keep Your promises;
for You’re faithful & gracious to us;
for You reveal Your purpose, love
to do the miraculous, strengthen
Your people as well as redeem and
restore us. In Jesus’ name, Amen.
