Christian Devotional – July 14, 2015

Read 1 Samuel chapter 8

VERSE:

1 Samuel 8:22a–The Lord answered, “Listen to them and give them a king.”

TRUTH:

When we pray and beg God for things, sometimes God gives us what we want. In this case, having a king did not turn out well for the people. We must be careful what we are praying for and make sure that it is in line with God’s will for us. If not, God may give us what we ask for, and we end up wishing He hadn’t.

RESPONSE:

Father, I want You , so I will pray to have more of You. I desire You in my life. Thank You for all that You have done for me and please only give me Your best, even when I don’t know what that is at the time.
