What does it say?
Samuel reminded God’s people of His faithfulness. When Samuel warned the people of the consequences of disobedience, they repented and asked him to intercede for them.
What does it mean?
God is faithful. His commitment to Israel was unwavering, even in their rebellion. Samuel took a moment to have a candid conversation with Israel, reminding them of a few things God had done for them in the past. God’s people reacted with fear and humility. In that moment, Samuel knew the people could either turn away, or they could turn to God in repentance. He gently reminded them that God had chosen them as His people and would be faithful to that commitment. Samuel also reminded them that God’s faithfulness should compel them to fear and serve the Lord with their whole heart.
How should I respond?
God knew your doubts, your fears, and your rebellion before you were born. Yet He remains faithful to His commitment and promises to you. Even when we look to relationships, money, success, or a myriad of other distractions for our security, God is faithful. Look back – what has God done for you in the past? What is He doing right now? Like Israel, God’s record of faithfulness should compel you to serve Him with your whole heart. Ask Him to help you reflect His faithfulness. The choice to live solely for Him won’t necessarily make your life easier, but it will definitely be worth it.

1 Samuel records the transition from the time of the Judges to the time of the monarchy. Although they were both selected by God and anointed by Samuel to be king, the divergent paths of King Saul and King David demonstrate that faithfulness and obedience to God are far more important than title or position.
