Weekly Truth

from the This Is the Old Testament reading plan


Acts 13:17-23

BY She Reads Truth

Scripture is God-breathed and true. When we memorize it, we carry His Word with us wherever we go. 

Test your memory by saying Acts 13:17–23 from memory aloud, reflecting on all you have learned in your study of the Old Testament.

17 The God of this people Israel chose our ancestors, made the people prosper during their stay in the land of Egypt, and led them out of it with a mighty arm. 18 And for about forty years he put up with them in the wilderness; 19 and after destroying seven nations in the land of Canaan, he gave them their land as an inheritance. 20 This all took about 450 years. After this, he gave them judges until Samuel the prophet. 21 Then they asked for a king, and God gave them Saul the son of Kish, a man of the tribe of Benjamin, for forty years. 22 After removing him, he raised up David as their king and testified about him, “I have found David the son of Jesse to be a man after my own heart, who will carry out all my will.”

23 From this man’s descendants, as he promised, God brought to Israel the Savior, Jesus.
—Acts 13:17–2

    DOROTHY- I usually hear about them on podcasts either SRT or some of the other ones I listen to. Different authors are Kelly Minter, Nicki Koziarz, Lauren Chandler, Jen Wilkins, Lisa Harper…I either get them on Amazon or Lifeway or Proverbs 31 ministries things of that nature. They are all on Amazon though so you should be able to find them there.

    Hope Trent, I’ve been thinking of you and praying for you during your TWW. I’ve lost track of time, is it close to testing time? Here is a verse for you during your waiting period: “…be strong in the Lord and His mighty power.” Ephesians 6:10

    Thank you Dorothy. She text me a couple times on her way there. But now there is no cell service plus at this camp all the phones are turned in to focus on Jesus.
