Do What God Wants

Lord said to Samuel: "How long will you mourn for Saul? Did not he seeing I have rejected from reigning over Israel? Fill your horn with oil and go. I'm sending you to Jesse of Bethlehem, for among her children I have selected a king for myself. "

1 Samuel 16: 1-13

This verse is motivated by the dissatisfaction of mankind, the chosen king. God let them get exactly what they want. Elected Saul as king. Saul was no longer eligible, Israel requires a person to hold the scepter. Samuel does not know and can not imagine who could be substitutes kingship Saul? Unless God knows. Then the Lord revealed Himself to Samuel, "... he was seeing I have rejected from reigning over Israel? I'm sending you to Jesse of Bethlehem, for among his children have chosen king for Me. "('1). This is the first time Samuel heard God has chosen the right direction of someone to replace Saul. The people of Israel have not chosen this man, Samuel hesitation and fear. Samuel said, "How can I go? If Saul hear it, he will kill me ... "('2).

Brother, why until Samuel panic, fear? Where the eyes of Samuel addressed? This is all because Samuel is not focused on God, the eyes of Samuel just focus to Saul. Actually, just follow what the Lord said. God instructed Samuel to go to Jesse: "You must bring in your hands a heifer of the animals from the pasture, and shall say: I have come to sacrifice to the Lord. Then invite Jesse to the sacrifice, and I will tell you what you must do "('2-'3).
