2 Samuel 2:8, 9

2 Samuel is all about Jesus! This 9-day plan will walk you through the book of 2 Samuel by reading just a chapter or two a day. Each day is accompanied by a short devotional and video that explains what’s happening and shows you how each part of the story points to Jesus and his Gospel.

2 Samuel depicts the ascension and reign of King David following the death of Saul and Jonathan. David united the kingdom, established Jerusalem as the capital city, and extended the territory of Israel. At the crescendo of the book, God promises David that "your throne shall be established forever" (2 Samuel 7:16). Despite David's wickedness, God ultimately fulfills his promises to David through the person and work of Jesus Christ.

But throughout the Bible, we see that when God calls someone forward, obstacles are simply part of the journey—not the end of it. In this Bible Reading Plan, explore the life of David to see how faithful obedience and trust in God’s strength enables us to keep moving forward, even when the path is blocked.
