Israel Demands a King
Use Left/Right to seek, Home/End to jump to start or end. Hold shift to jump forward or backward.
Israel has never had a king like the other nations because God has always been their King. But when Samuel grows old and his sons become unfair judges, the people demand a king to lead them and fight their battles. Samuel feels hurt, but God explains that the people are really rejecting Him. Even after Samuel warns them that a king will take their sons, daughters, land, animals, and food, the people still insist.
Meanwhile, Saul is searching for lost donkeys when God leads him straight to Samuel. Samuel anoints Saul with oil, showing that God has chosen him to become Israel’s first king. Later, when all Israel gathers to meet their new ruler, Saul is nowhere to be found—until God reveals he is hiding among the baggage.
Talk about it:
- Why did Israel want a king like the other nations?
- What warning did Samuel give the people about having a king?
- How did God lead Saul to Samuel?
- Why do you think Saul hid when it was time to be introduced as king?
- How can we choose God’s plan instead of just trying to be like everyone else?
