July 14 Introduction Saul is instructed to attack the Amalekites and to destroy everything they have. However, Saul allows his men to keep the best sheep and cattle to offer as a sacrifice to God. Samuel confronts Saul with his sin of disobedience, and the LORD rejects Saul as king. Today’s Scripture: 1 Samuel 15:29 (GNT) [Samuel said to Saul:] “Israel’s majestic God does not lie or change His mind. He is not a human being – He does not change His mind.” Today’s Reading 1 Samuel 15:1-35 Reflect Samuel tells Saul that it is better to obey God than to offer sacrifices (verse 22). What was Saul’s act of disobedience? How does Saul respond to Samuel (verses 15, 20, 21)? What does Saul ask of Samuel (verse 30)? Have you ever experienced consequences resulting from disobedience? Pray Glorious and majestic God, teach me to obey You and to serve You faithfully. Forgive me when I disobey and fail to act in accord with Your will. In Your mercy, restore me to a right relationship with You. Amen. Prayer Concern Those who are seeking forgiveness. Tomorrow’s Reading 1 Samuel 16:1-23: David is anointed king.
