In this episode of Reading the Bible Daily with Dave, we turn to 1 Chronicles 10 and the tragic end of King Saul. His downfall was not simply the result of losing a battle but of losing faith in God. The Chronicler reminds us that Saul died for his unfaithfulness—because he did not keep the command of the Lord and sought guidance from a medium rather than from God. Yet, even in this dark moment, we see hope. The Lord turned the kingdom over to David, the son of Jesse, pointing forward to Jesus Christ, the faithful and eternal King. Saul's failure reminds us of the seriousness of God's Word and the cost of disobedience, while David's rise points us to the true King who never fails. Main Points: • Israel's defeat and Saul's death (vv. 1–7) • The humiliation of Israel by the Philistines (vv. 8–12) • The Chronicler's verdict on Saul's unfaithfulness (vv. 13–14) Takeaway: Trust God's Word, cling to Christ the true King, and learn from Saul's downfall the seriousness of obedience and the hope we have in Jesus. Passage: 1 Chronicles 10:1–14 (ESV) For more from Reading the Bible Daily with Dave visit: https://servantsofgrace.org/reading-the-bible-daily-with-dave/
