Today's Daily Devotional takes a look at the life of Barzillai, the faithful and dependable octogenarian. The Devotional draws attention to the peculiarity of his loyalty to King David, not bothered about the danger and consequences. The Devotional stresses the fact that though Barzillai was old, he did not use this as an excuse to be slack in his commitment to the king, but remained loyal to David throughout his turbulent and challenging moments. The Devotional concludes by admonishing all to emulate Barzillai in being loyal to Jesus. January 26, 2026.
