    About this ebook

    How does a nation once so mighty become reduced to nothing more than broken down walls and rubble full of memories of what once was? This is the story told through Chronicles. Throughout this entire book there is a focus on the importance of praising God in every situation.

    Read through 1 and 2 Chronicles, focusing on one verse from each chapter. Christian Devotional Author Kristi Burchfiel returns with her singular style, encouraging people to take 5 minutes out of their day to read through a verse, focus on a truth from that verse, and respond back to the Lord in prayer. Designed to be brief, these devotions are perfect for those readers who don't have a lot of time and yet desire a truth from God's Word to take with them throughout the day.

    I never thought that the difficult times I found myself stuck in would result in a Bible study. As a young pastor’s wife, I found myself digging deep into the book of Ecclesiastes looking for answers to the questions that overwhelmed my life: How do I prioritize my life? What things should I focus on? What do I do when things don’t work out my way? How do I avoid having regrets later on? Those questions and the answers I learned paved the way for my first book Without Regrets. Since then, I’ve experienced the amazing truths that God has for us in the Bible and I am passionate about sharing those truths with others in a way that they can apply those truths to their lives. I write Christian Daily Devotionals, including a devotional for the day, as well as Bible studies and I love to share and to pray for people through my Facebook Page and on Twitter. I also enjoy the opportunity to speak and encourage others whether it’s a small study group or a large women’s conference. I grew up in Valley Center, Kansas and received my Bachelor’s and Master’s degrees from Oklahoma Baptist University in Shawnee, Oklahoma. I’ve been married to my husband D Burchfiel for 16 years and we enjoy our 2 children, Rebekah and Andrew. We currently make our home in Wichita, Kansas where D is the pastor of Southwest Baptist Church.

      Introduction

      What is The Daily Devotional Series?

      The Daily Devotional Series was born from my own personal devotions. As part of my daily time with God, I wanted to be able to read and study a whole book of the Bible at a time to gain background and overall themes. However, I also wanted to be able to focus on one specific thought or idea that I could hold on to and apply for the whole day.

      Ultimately, I decided to take one book of the Bible, read through one chapter a day, and then focus on a truth from one verse in that chapter. This allows me to balance the consistency of going through a whole book in a reasonable amount of time with the specific focus I need for that particular day.

      These devotions are not designed to be an in-depth study of a particular verse, chapter, or book. They are intentionally designed to be brief. Because of this, readers won’t get bogged down in lots of theology. Instead, I encourage the reader to take the time to really focus on application in his or her personal life. The Bible is living and active and applicable in our daily lives and we would do well to integrate its truths into our life.

      How do I use The Daily Devotional Series?

      If you have the time, I encourage you to take the time to read through the entire chapter for each day so you can get the full story and background information that is presented in the chapter. However, realize that is not necessary to be able to follow and learn from the devotionals. Each devotional focuses on one verse from that chapter, the truth in that verse, and a response to pray back to God. Then the next day moves on to the next chapter.

      May you be blessed as you study God’s word and apply it to your life daily.

      About Chronicles

      A promise that held such hope and grandeur falls to ruin and desolation. What causes the decay? How does a nation once so mighty become reduced to nothing more than broken down walls and rubble full of memories of what once was? This is the story told through Chronicles.

      The books of First and Second Chronicles cover a lot of important themes and ideas from the Old Testament. Some scholars credit Ezra as the author, but no confirmed author is agreed upon. While the author is not known for sure, the timeframe for when the books were written was after the Assyrian and Babylonian captivity of the children of Israel. Someone was looking back at the recent past and recording the events so that others could learn from their mistakes.

      The books are categorized as historical books and in a lot of ways they are similar to 1 and 2 Samuel and 1 and 2 Kings in the content and stories they relate. However, the information in Chronicles is condensed and
