Scripture Union Daily Guide 27th June 2026 Outline
To abuse family relationship is to have ill feeling towards one another (2 Samuel 13:1-2). Amnon was controlled by lust, not love. The evil advice from Jonadab lacks godliness ( 2 Samuel 13:2-5). Notice how Jonadab was described in 2 Samuel 13:3b. We should not only carefully consider the thoughts we entertain, but we must be careful the company we keep (Proverbs 4:23; 1 Corinthians 15:33). We see the power of evil thoughts, impulses and not evaluating advice before taking action. How do we differentiate love from lust (2 Samuel 13:14, 15)?
While love does not demand its way, lust is harsh and demands its own way. Lust wants immediate satisfaction which turns to rejection, self-disgust and hatred. Why was Tamar reluctant to leave Amnon’s house after she was raped (2 Samuel 13:16-20)? Rape is forbidden (Deuteronomy 22:28,29). It ruled out a lady’s chances of marriage in Israel. What must we put in place to discourage these evil actions in our families?
Why did David not go beyond being furious over Amnon’s actions with disciplinary actions (2 Samuel 13:21,22)? Amnon being his first son, next to succeed him as king and David’s adultery with Bethsheba may be the issues. In what specific ways have you been settling the painful issues of the past of your life to enable you arrest the same issues in your children? Notice what was said about Absalom in 2 Samuel 13:23 and avoid it.
Closing Prayer
LORD, help me not to be the source of evil in others especially my children by failing to give up evil life styles capable of reproducing itself as was the case of David and his children
