Clear priority

Saul realized that his troops were rapidly slipping away. 9So he demanded, “Bring me the burnt offering and the peace offerings!” And Saul sacrificed the burnt offering himself.

Saul replied, “I saw my men scattering from me, and you didn’t arrive when you said you would, and the Philistines are at Micmash ready for battle.

“How foolish!” Samuel exclaimed. “You have not kept the command the Lord your God gave you. Had you kept it, the Lord would have established your kingdom over Israel forever. 

 “Perhaps the Lord will help us, for nothing can hinder the Lord. He can win a battle whether he has many warriors or only a few!”7“Do what you think is best,” the armor bearer replied. “I’m with you completely, whatever you decide.”

Suddenly, panic broke out in the Philistine army, both in the camp and in the field, including even the outposts and raiding parties. And just then an earthquake struck, and everyone was terrified.

Then Saul and all his men rushed out to the battle and found the Philistines killing each other. There was terrible confusion everywhere. 

Lord God my Father,]

Help me to keep you as the priority in my actions, defeat my enemy and allow me to stay focused on your glory and not on my struggles.

In Jesus name I pray,

Amen
