1 Samuel

DAY 9 OF 42

Saul Leads Israel to Victory

Questions to consider:

  1. What does this passage teach you about God?
  2. What does this teach you about humanity and the world?
  3. In this chapter, Samuel calls the people of Israel to repentance; to turn away from idols and return to God. Why do you think it is so easy for us to turn away from God and seek after other things? 
  4. Most of us are naturally forgetful. In 1 Samuel 7:12, Samuel sets up a stone as a remembrance of how God rescued Israel from the hands of the Philistines. When was a time that you remember God showing up in your life in a significant way? Write about it here as a way of remembering the goodness of God.

Let’s Pray:

Father, thank you for all the ways I’ve seen you move in my life and the lives of people around me. Help me to remember!

About this Plan

1 Samuel

Picture this: a nation chosen by God; a prophet from an unlikely background to help show God’s ways to His people; a king whose fear and unfaithfulness bring disaster; and a man after God’s own heart who changed the nation of Israel forever. This is a story of God’s reign and rule, Israel’s choices and consequences, and two men’s different responses to God.
