WAITING ON GOD
Today's reading: 1 Samuel 11-15

"So he demanded, Bring me the burnt offering and the peace offering! And Saul sacrificed the burnt offering himself." 1 Samuel 13:9 NLT

Yes, the Philistines were breathing down his neck.

Yes, he had been appointed by God to fulfill a role.

Yes, Samuel had been summoned, but had not arrived.

Yes, he and his troops were in a pickle.

But to rush in and do what God had specifically said not to do? To take over for God? To step in and play God himself?

We'd never do that, would we?

It never ends well when we do!

Wait on the Lord. Be patient. Trust that God will act on your behalf when the time is perfectly right.

Or...go ahead with your own attempt and see how far that will get you.
