Theological / Devotional

To Amasa. David had promised Amasa that he would be his commander in chief (ch. 19:13), and he kept his promise. A grave crisis had arisen, and Amasa was ordered to have the army in readiness within three days to crush the revolt. For a new man this was not an easy task at such a time of division and turmoil.
