“So Saul died for his transgression which he committed against the LORD, even against the word of the LORD, which he kept not, and also for asking counsel of one that had a familiar spirit, to enquire of it; and enquired not of the LORD: therefore he slew him, and turned the kingdom unto David the son of Jesse.”
1 Chronicles 10:13-14 KJV
Saul died in disobedience, disobedient to God. He didn’t obey God’s words. Instead of praying, he went to a witch to seek guidance. Because he didn’t go to God for help, God took his life and turned the kingdom over to David.. It was sad that Saul made the choices that he did, to his own detriment as the wrath of God came upon him. We thank God for Jesus because anyone who believes in the Son of God has everlasting life; and those who do not believe in Jesus Christ, shall not see life, but the wrath of God abides on them. Jesus, on the Cross through His Sacrifice, took the wrath of God on Himself. Surely He has borne our griefs And carried our sorrows; Yet we esteemed Him stricken, smitten by God, and afflicted. But He was wounded for our transgressions, He was bruised for our iniquities; the chastisement for our peace was upon Him, and by His stripes we are healed. Thank You Jesus for the new covenant You made with all humanity, may everyone believe and receive You. Amen!
