1 Chronicles 10:1-11:19
Saul
"was unfaithful to the Lord." Help us, Lord, not to become like Saul
who "did not keep the command of the Lord ... and did not seek guidance
from the Lord" (1 Chronicles 10:13-14). Saul had started well. At the
beginning, everything had looked so promising. What went wrong? Lord, we
think about Saul - and we think about ourselves. It happened to Saul.
It can happen to us. Drifting away from You happens when we start to
lose interest in worshipping You, reading Your Word and speaking to You.
Everything falls apart. We become like Saul - a shadow of what we once
were. we wonder, "Can things be turned around?" Yes! Your Word is alive.
Your Spirit is alive. Renew in us the life that comes from Your Word
and Your Spirit.
