Saul Meets Samuel
Questions to consider:
- What does this passage teach you about God?
- What does this teach you about humanity and the world?
- This chapter sets up the proclamation of a king for Israel and introduces a key figure in the history of Israel. What do you learn about Saul from this chapter - character traits, physical attributes, etc.?
- While Samuel knows exactly what is going on, Saul is in the dark about his future until chapter 10. What do you think would have been going through your mind if you were Saul? How is the guiding hand of God on display in this chapter?
Let’s Pray:
Father, thank you for moving in ways I can’t see; for being present in the smallest moments. Help me to walk in obedience, especially when I don’t understand what you are doing.

About this Plan
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.
