Saul & David

Saul & David

(1 Samuel 16)

• Do you know what God's people wanted a king?

• Saul started off as a good king but after a while he turned away from God

• God wanted a new king in place so he sent Samuel off to find one

• Did you spot the name of the town where David lived?  Where have you heard of that town before? 

• Why did God choose David to be king not any of the other brothers?

• Have a chat about the kind of skills David had that would be useful for a king.

• The Bible says that God knows each one of us and knows everything about us.  In Luke 12 verse 7 it says that he even knows how many hairs are on your head!  Isn't that amazing?!

• God knows everything about us and he loves us!
