What Was So Wrong with Israel Wanting a King?

Israel was to be a different kind of nation. God was their King. He blessed Israel by, among other things, giving them His laws, providing for them, protecting them, and leading them into battle. But as time went on, being led by an invisible King became a bit much for the people. They wanted to be like the rest of the nations; they wanted an earthly king to do all the things God had been doing for them, and this got them in a lot of trouble.Join me for today's Daily Word & Prayer as we see what we can learn from Israel's mistake. Scripture Used in Today's Message1 Samuel 8:1-22Acts 15:51 Peter 2:9If you've not read my book, Takin' it to Their Turf. request a copy on my website, www.CampusAmerica.com.You'll be inspired, encouraged, and learn plenty about evangelism and spiritual warfare through the 70+ stories I share of my campus evangelism expereinces.We send a copy to anyone who donates to our ministry, but if you can't do so, simply request a copy by sending us an email. Who do you know that needs to hear today's message? Go ahead and forward this to them, along with a prayer that God will use it in their life.To find Tom on Instagram, Facebook, TiKTok, and elsewhere, go to linktr.ee/tomthepreacher To support Tom Short Campus Ministries, click herehttps://www.tomthepreacher.com/support************ Do you want to have all your sins forgiven and know God personally? *********Check out my video "The Bridge Diagram" at https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=m0Kjwrlind8&t=1sCheck out my website, www.TomthePreacher.com, to learn more about my ministry and sign up for my daily email.
