Samuel Anoints Saul as King

Questions to consider:

1. What does this passage teach you about God?
2. What does this teach you about humanity and the world?
3. Samuel is clearly opposed to Israel’s request for a king and knows the negative outcome from what God has communicated to him, yet he responds to God in obedience. How does that contrast the religious leaders of Israel? (1 Samuel 2:12-21)
4. How do you respond to God’s call to obedience? When was a time that obedience didn’t seem to make sense? Did you choose obedience or disobedience?

Let’s Pray:

Father, help me to respond to your Spirit in obedience, not out of obligation. Remind me that your call on my life is for your glory and my good.
