God Chooses a New King
Use Left/Right to seek, Home/End to jump to start or end. Hold shift to jump forward or backward.
Saul was brave and led Israel into battle, but he struggled to obey God completely. First, he offered a sacrifice that only the priest was supposed to offer. Later, when God gave him another chance to obey, Saul only followed part of God’s command and tried to make excuses. Samuel reminded him that obeying God is better than offering sacrifices.
Because Saul would not fully obey, God sent Samuel to Bethlehem to find a new king among Jesse’s sons. Samuel thought the tallest, strongest son looked like a king, but God said He looks at the heart. Finally, young David was called in from watching the sheep. God chose him, and Samuel anointed David with oil. David returned to the fields, waiting for God’s timing to become king.
Talk about it:
- Why was Saul’s “halfway obedience” a problem?
- What did Samuel mean when he said obeying God is better than sacrifice?
- Why didn’t God choose Jesse’s oldest son?
- What does it mean that God looks at the heart?
- How can you obey God completely this week?
