KING SAUL 1 SAM.15: 20-26

Soon after Saul was made king of Israel, God gave him an assignment to Amalekto utterly destroy the people because they opposed the Israelites when they left Egypt. This means that nobody should be spared neither young or old. Saul organized the soldiers and went to  the Amalekites and defeated them but not in the way that Saul was instructed. The Israelites destroyed everything but spared the goats, sheep and other valuables. Above all, King Agag of Amalek was spared and they took him captive. This was Saul’s sin and God was not happy with him.

 

When Samuel confronted him on this, he lied to him. God had revealed everything to Samuel. When Samuel questioned him on the bleating of sheep and other animals, Saul claimed that it was the people that brought those things for sacrifice to the Lord. Saul did not admit his fault, rather, shifted the blame on the people.

King Saul, the first king of Israel, is a prime example of the consequences of disobedience. In the Bible, there are several instances where Saul disobeyed God’s commands, and as a result, he suffered severe consequences. Here are a few examples:

1. Disobedience in Battle: In 1 Samuel 15, God commanded Saul to attack and completely destroy the Amalekites and all their possessions. However, Saul disobeyed and spared the Amalekite king and some of the spoils of war. As a result, God rejected Saul as king, and Samuel prophesied that God would take the kingdom away from him.
2. Jealousy and Envy: Saul became jealous of David’s popularity and success and sought to kill him. He disobeyed God’s command to protect and care for David, who God had anointed as the next king of Israel. This disobedience led to a long and bitter feud between Saul and David.
3. Seeking guidance from forbidden sources: In 1 Samuel 28, Saul was facing a battle with the Philistines, and he sought guidance from a medium, which was forbidden by God. This disobedience led to the downfall of Saul and his sons, who were killed in the battle.

The consequences of Saul’s disobedience were severe and included losing his kingship, losing his relationship with God, and ultimately losing his life. Saul’s story serves as a reminder that disobedience has serious consequences, and we should always strive to obey God’s commands

As a result of Saul’s disobedience, God rejected him as king and chose another to replace him. Samuel pronounced God’s judgment on Saul, saying “Because you have rejected the word of the Lord, He has also rejected you from being king.” (1 Samuel 15:23)

Saul’s disobedience had serious consequences not only for himself but also for his people. His failure to obey God’s commands led to a cycle of sin and suffering that plagued his reign. It also set a bad example for future leaders who would follow in his footsteps.

Saul’s story is a powerful reminder that obedience to God is essential for success in our lives, whether we are leaders or not. Disobedience can have severe consequences that can affect not only us but also those around us. It is essential that we strive to obey God’s commands and follow His will, even when it may be difficult or uncomfortable

KING SAUL REJECTED AS KING 1 SAM16:14-23

As a result of his disobedience, God rejected Saul as king. This rejection made the Spirit of God to leave him and an evil spirit from the Lord tormented him. Whenever he is tormented, he could only be relieved when he listened to music. David was called to the palace because he was very skillful in playing the lyre.

KING SAUL AND HIS THREE SONS DIED SAME DAY 1 SAM.31: 1-13

The Philistines had a long battle with the Israelites. However, the Philistines gained an upper hand at Mount Gilboa. Saul and his three sons- Jonathan, Malchishua and Abinadab were killed. The Philistines cut off his head, stripped off his armour and put it in the temple of Ashtaroth and fastened his body to the wall of Bethsham.

After Saul and his sons were killed in battle, the Philistines took his body and his sons’ bodies and hung them on the wall of Beth Shan. They also took Saul’s armor and placed it in the temple of their god, Ashtaroth, as a trophy of their victory.

DISOBEDIENCE OF THE YOUNG PROPHET 1 KGS. 13: 11-24

God sent a prophet from Judah to prophesy in Bethel. King Jeroboam was at the altar, burning incense. He prophesied that God would raise Josiah to reform the religious situation of the land. This angered Jeroboam and he stretch out his hand as a way of command to capture the prophet. Immediately he did that, his hand dried up. Jeroboam begged the prophet to ask God to restore his hand which he did and it was restored. The king was pleased and asked the prophet to come and refresh himself with a reward. The prophet refused because God had told him not to take anything when he was to go back.

When an old prophet was informed of this, he went after the prophet on his ass whom he met sitting under an oak tree. He asked if he was the prophet and the latter confirmed it. He told him to come and eat but the young prophet told him what God said to him. However, the older prophet lied that an angel of God told to bring him back so that he could refresh himself.

 

When they were eating, God told the old prophet to tell his younger counterpart that his body will not be laid in his father’s tomb. When he was on his way back, he was killed by a lion.

The story of the disobedience of the young prophet is found in 1 Kings 13:11-24. Here is a brief summary:

A young prophet was sent by God to Bethel to denounce the idolatrous practices of King Jeroboam. The prophet was given strict instructions by God not to eat or drink anything in the land, nor to return by the same way that he had come. The young prophet delivered his message to Jeroboam and started on his way back, but an old prophet from Bethel intercepted him and invited him to his house to eat and drink.

The young prophet refused, citing God’s command not to eat or drink anything in the land. However, the old prophet claimed to have received a vision from an angel telling him that the young prophet should come to his house and eat and drink. The young prophet was convinced and went to the old prophet’s house, where he ate and drank.

While they were eating, the word of the Lord came to the old prophet, who rebuked the young prophet for disobeying God’s command. The old prophet prophesied that the young prophet would not be buried in his ancestral tomb because of his disobedience. As the young prophet left the old prophet’s house and started on his way back, he was attacked and killed by a lion.

The disobedience of the young prophet led to his untimely death and dishonor. This story serves as a warning to us about the dangers of disobedience and the importance of obeying God’s commands, even when they seem difficult or inconvenient. It also teaches us the importance of discerning the voice of God and not being swayed by the words of others who may claim to have a word from God
