1 Samuel 15
In every GodÕs given assignment, when your purpose is for personal gain, you will gain distraction. Distraction from God is an indirect decision to fail. God sent Samuel to King Saul of < ?xml version='1.0' encoding='utf-8'?>Israel. 1 Samuel 15:3, ÒNow go and attack Amalek, and utterly destroy all that they have, and do not spare them. But kill both man and woman, infant and nursing child, ox and sheep, camel and donkeyÓ The command was to do; SaulÕs desire was to undo. He had his own reason for God and not the reason of God for Him. When you begin to have your reason for God instead of GodÕs reason for you, you have indirectly or directly taken the position of God, and your purpose has overtaken GodÕs gain. Saul did not destroy as directed by GodÕs command. 1 Samuel 15:9, ÒBut Saul and the people spared Agag and the best of the sheep, the oxen, the fatlings, the lambs, and all that was good and were unwilling to utterly destroy them. But everything despised and worthless, that they utterly destroyed.Ó You have no business to change His given reason for His assignment. Ask God to give you the grace to carry out what He trust you for. When you fully persecute His reason, you will pass, and when you fail before Him, He will regret sending you. 1 Samuel 15:11, ÒÔI greatly regret that I have set up Saul as king, for he has turned back from following Me and he has not performed My commandmentsÕ And it grieved Samuel, and he cried out to the LORD all night.Ó God always has a reason for His command. Ask God to help you not to violate His reason.
