[:en]Scripture Reading: 2 Samuel 24:1-17
Biblical Truth: The most devastating sin that David committed was pride. It led him to sin by taking a census of his forces to assess his military strength. This sin resulted in the death of 70k people. But unlike others, David did not try to rationalize or justify himself and blame others. He took responsibility to his actions and entrusted himself into God’s hand.
Personal Application: Let us follow the example of David to take responsibility for our actions. Let us confess our sins and ask forgiveness and restoration.
Prayer: Lord, have mercy on me for all the wrongs I have done.
