And Samuel said, Hath the LORD as great delight in burnt offerings and
sacrifices, as in obeying the voice of the LORD? Behold, to obey is better than sacrifice, and to hearken than the fat of rams.
For rebellion is
as the sin of witchcraft, and stubbornness is as iniquity and idolatry. Because thou hast
rejected the word of the LORD, he hath also rejected thee from being king.
Prayer
Help to always want to obey you,
even if it feels like it is easier to cut corners and disobey.
I want my heart to be far away
from rebelling against you.
I pray that hardheartedness and
stubbornness will have no hold over me.
I pray that my heart will accept
the supremacy of the word of God and I will live by it.
Whenever I fall short, have
mercy as I come to you for forgiveness. Do not reject me as your child, O God.
Thank you for remembering your
covenant with me.
I have prayed in the mighty name
of Jesus Christ. Amen.
