Reading – 1 Samuel 9-10

Highlight Verse:

“So they asked the Lord, “Where is he?” And the Lord replied, “He is hiding among the baggage.””
‭‭1 Samuel‬ ‭10‬:‭22‬ ‭NLT‬‬

Saul had a crisis of confidence. From the way he acted, it’s evident that he didn’t trust that God could enable him to rule Israel.

I would say that it was that very lack of trust and confidence that was the undoing of his rule.

It was his lack of trust in God that led some to not follow his lead.

It was his lack of trust in God that led to needing a hero to defeat Goliath.

It was his lack of trust in God that led him to fear and despise that very hero, David.

Sometimes it’s our lack of trust in God that holds us back from accomplishing all that He has for us.

Are there areas where your trust in God is lacking?
How would your life be different if you acted in faith that God could do what He promised to do through you?
