I Samuel 11:7
“The terror of GOD seized the people, and they came out, one and all, not a laggard among them.”
“And the Lord made the people afraid of Saul’s anger and all of them came out together as one.”
Man’s perspective sees Saul take command and establish power by intimidation. I Samuel shows us it is God who gives Saul’s words and actions power to raise Israel to arms. God is at work here, not Saul.
Lord, keep me humble, always remembering you are the power of my life.
