Your Destiny Lies Ahead

November 13, 2024

Today’s Scripture

The LORD said to Samuel, “How long will you mourn for Saul, since I have rejected him as king over Israel? Fill your horn with oil and be on your way; I am sending you to Jesse of Bethlehem. I have chosen one of his sons to be king.”

1 Samuel 16:1, NIV

Today’s Word

God had told Samuel to anoint Saul to be the first king of Israel. I can see Samuel taking Saul, who wasn’t trained in leadership, under his wing, encouraging him, giving him advice and counsel. He wanted him to succeed so badly. Saul started off well, but over time he started compromising and lost the kingdom. God told Samuel, “I regret that I ever made Saul king.” Samuel got so discouraged by what didn’t work out, wondering why Saul didn’t do better, that God finally told Samuel he had mourned long enough over what was lost. The nation’s destiny lie ahead in the next choice, David, who became the greatest king who ever lived. As with Samuel, you may have done your best, given your heart and soul, but you didn’t get the position, the relationship didn’t make it, or the business didn’t succeed. It wasn’t fair or your fault, but your destiny is not in what you lost, it’s in what you have left. If you stop mourning your loss, you’ll come into something greater, something better, something more fulfilling than you’ve ever imagined.

Prayer For Today

“Father, thank You for new dreams, new relationships, new beginnings, and new seasons. Thank You that after a season of disappointment and mourning over a Saul, You already have a David lined up. I look forward to something greater and more fulfilling than I’ve ever imagined. In Jesus’ Name, Amen.”
