Reflection on First Samuel

Adoring God thru Thanks & Praise

The purpose of First Samuel 
is to record the life of Samuel,
Israel’s last judge, thru reign and
decline of Saul, the first king;
and the choice and preparation
of David, Israel’s greatest king.
Establishing a monarchy did
not solve Israel’s problems.
What God desires is the genuine
devotion of each person’s mind
and heart to Him. No government
or set of laws can substitute for
the rule of God in your heart & life.

On Monday, we learn from 1Sam 1
that God Cares about Our Concerns.
On Tuesday, we learn from 1Sam 7
that God Is Our Mighty Helper.
On Wed, we learn from 1Sam 10
that Spirit of God Empowers Us.
On Thursday, we learn from 17
that God Delivers the Faithful.
On Friday, we learn fr 1Sam 20/22
that God Cares for Downtrodden.
On Sat, we learn from 1Sam 30
that Gracious God Is Our Strength.

Let us humble ourselves and pray
and seek His face. Help us O God
be Christ’s disciples who Adore You:
For You Care about Our Concerns;
especially when are Downtrodden;
For You are worthy of our Thanks
as You Deliver and Empower Us;
For You are worthy of our Praise
being Mighty Helper & Our Strength.
In Jesus’ precious name, Amen.
