Today on Meditating the Word, Samuel anoints Saul; Saul is made King; Saul rescues the City of Jabesh, Saul is Confirmed a King; and Samuel gives a Farewell Speech.

Father God, thank you for your Word, and thank you for your faithfulness. May we always recognize that you are our King, and we serve you alone. You have set authority in place, and we recognize the positions of authority and don't rebel against them, but we follow you first and foremost. Help us to be faithful, Father, as you are faithful. Amen.
