Tonight's family reading · Nora Springs, IA

David and the Giant — a 5-minute devotion for Nora Springs, IA families

1 Samuel 17 · Courage that comes from God, not size

An army stood frozen for forty days while a giant shouted at them. A shepherd boy walked out with a sling and five smooth stones, saying the battle belonged to God. One stone was enough.

This works best in Nora Springs, IA as a bedtime reading. Lights low, 1 Samuel 17 read slowly, the memory verse said twice, then the prayer. Younger children fall asleep on "courage that comes from god, not size"; older ones usually want to argue about it first, which is fine.

Memory verse

“The battle is the Lord's, and he will give all of you into our hands.”
1 Samuel 17:47

Table question

What is the giant you are most afraid of right now — and who is standing with you?

30-second prayer

God, the thing I am scared of looks much bigger than me. Remind me tonight that the battle is yours. Amen.

Make it stick: ask the same question again at breakfast tomorrow. Answers change overnight, and hearing that change is how a child learns that courage that comes from god, not size is something you practise, not something you know.

Tomorrow: David and Jonathan become friends (1 Samuel 18:1-4). ArkQuest queues the next reading automatically, so nobody has to decide what comes after tonight.

Question 1 of 33 left · ~30s

On Mount Carmel, Elijah rebuilt an altar of twelve stones before calling on the Lord. What did the twelve stones represent?
