2 Samuel 23:13-14

What if the life you really want and the future God wants for you are hiding right now in your biggest problem, your worst failure, your greatest fear? Inspired by a little-noticed incident from the Old Testament, these devotionals will teach you to be a “lion chaser” as you discover the richest opportunities in the least likely places.

2 Samuel 23 is more than a list of names, it’s a blueprint for courageous, loyal, kingdom-minded living. In this 5-day devotional, you’ll walk through the lives of David’s mighty men and discover the power of hidden faithfulness, unshakeable courage, defending God-given territory, sacrificial loyalty, and how God uses unlikely people to accomplish extraordinary things. Their stories will challenge you, inspire you, and remind you that God still shapes ordinary believers into mighty warriors. This plan will help you step into your calling with boldness and faith.

Every man is called by God to embrace his vulnerability and strive for connection; to fight and take ground in the sacred terrain of relationships. David’s life serves as a blueprint for men who urgently need to abandon isolation and the cultural lies of unhealthy individualism. Ten Men is a powerful call to rally toward the brotherhood we were created to experience. These devotions are best shared with other men who also need to be lifted from their loneliness. Let’s embark on this life-changing journey together!

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.
