Saul – The Lord Hath Rejected Thee

Saul – The Lord Hath Rejected Thee

The Lord Hath Rejected Thee

I Samuel 15:22-26

What Saul Was Provided By God I Samuel 10

God provides bread to eat vs. 4

God provides a band to worship God vs. 5

God provides the Spirit vs. 6

God provides people to follow Saul vs. 26

 

Initially Saul understands it came from God 11:12-13

His downfall comes from thinking it came from him

 

What Saul Tries to Provide Himself

13:1-4 Saul never corrects the saying; he took credit for someone else’s victory

13:7-11 The people were leaving Saul, so Saul acted to bring them back

14:24 He thinks the battle is about him

14:52 He is not satisfied with the people God gave him; He took any person he could find the might help him

15:1 God gave Saul another chance

15:24 Saul sinned, however, he had a reason

15:30 He didn’t care about the punishment; he didn’t want to look bad in front of others

 

If we do anything right or well it is from the Lord

Everything we do it is for God’s glory

One day we will give an account

Someday we will understand it is all about Him

 

Luke 17:10 We are unprofitable servants
