God&#8217;s intention was that Saul would use the kingship to build up God&#8217;s kingdom, but it soon became clear that Saul&#8217;s intent was different. Yes, He desired to build a kingdom, but not God&#8217;s kingdom. What Saul sought was to build a kingdom for himself under the guise of God&#8217;s kingdom. Of course the Lord knew Saul&#8217;s heart, and he moved secretly and quietly behind the scenes to prepare a king for Israel that was of His choice, and who would build up God&#8217;s kingdom, and even pave the way for Christ, the King, to eventually be brought forth. Who was this one chosen by God? Well, let&#8217;s turn to the book of Ruth chapter 4, &#8220;And Salmon begot Boaz, and Boaz begot Obed, and Obed begot Jesse, and Jesse begot David.&#8221;<\/p>\n<div itemscope itemtype=\"http:\/\/schema.org\/AudioObject\"><meta itemprop=\"name\" content=\"1 &amp;amp; 2 Samuel (Program #13)\" \/><meta itemprop=\"uploadDate\" content=\"2024-09-17T06:05:21-05:00\" \/><meta itemprop=\"encodingFormat\" content=\"audio\/mpeg\" \/><meta itemprop=\"description\" content=\" 1 &amp;amp; 2 Samuel (Program #13) - The History Concerning David (1)\r\n\r\nWhen the children of Israel asked God for a king, He responded by giving them Saul, a tall, handsome, capable man who also was victorious over the Israel's enemies.
