David, Nabal, and Abigail: Wisdom in the Face of Wrath – 1 Samuel 25:1–31


Listen Later

📖 Today's Passage: 1 Samuel 25:1–31 In today's episode of Reading the Bible Daily with Dave, we witness a moment of crisis and grace. Samuel has died, David faces insult from a fool named Nabal, and Abigail steps in with remarkable wisdom that turns aside wrath. This chapter is a powerful reminder of how quickly we can fall from faith to flesh—and how God's grace often comes through unexpected people. Abigail's intercession not only saves lives, but points us forward to the gospel itself. In this episode, you'll learn: • What Samuel's death meant for Israel • How David's response to Nabal nearly led to disaster • Why Abigail's wisdom and courage stand out in Scripture • How her example foreshadows the work of Christ 🧠 Key Themes: Humility, spiritual vigilance, gospel grace, peacemaking, godly wisdom, and self-control in leadership. 📚 Series: Reading the Bible Daily with Dave 🗓️ Date: June 17 👤 Host: Dave Jenkins 🌐 Ministry: https://servantsofgrace.org/reading-the-bible-daily-with-dave/
