Daily Guide (Scripture Union) 25th September 2024 Outline:

It is important to have a leader who tells the people what God expects of them rather than what they want to hear. For the Israelites, their sins and rebellion brought them to where they were. How we need more leaders like Samuel today. Outline the steps they took as they returned to God (vs.2-4).

The people then realized that it would only take God to deliver them. We are sometimes tempted to fight our battles in our power. Only when we fail do we retrace our steps and return to the Lord. The Israelites became open to trusting God for their victory knowing that He was the one who went ahead of them. What did they say to Samuel in v.8? Notice the result of the battle having returned to God and trusted Him to fight for them (vs.10-14).

Sacrifices offered to the Lord attract His presence. Who can withstand God when He rises on behalf of His people? The Lord taught the Philistines a lesson that they will never forget. They probably went into this battle with confidence that was based on past victories. But the people had returned to God, and He was fighting for them. With God on our side, victory is guaranteed over the enemy.

* Any new insight or reinforcement of what you already know?

Closing Prayer
Lord, I trust and depend on you. Please grant me victory in any battle I may face.

Offer a prayer of faith in line with Psalms 29:11
“The LORD will give strength unto his people; the LORD will bless his people with peace.”
