In this week's episode we looked at the lives of Saul and David and how important preparation was in their process of becoming King.

Israel out of impatience, consistently asked God for a king, ignoring the fact that God was their ultimate King, so the Lord made Saul king of Israel. It is believed that the Lord did this to teach Israel a very important lesson.

God made an example out of Saul. In Saul becoming King; he failed miserably, walked in disobedience and lost many battles. Israel soon realized that God was their ultimate king of Kings.

In the words of Benjamin Franklin, "If you fail to prepare, you prepare to fail." Saul was not prepared to be king but David was. As a matter of fact, David was being trained and prepared to be king all his life without him realizing it.

Compared to Saul, David walked in humility, honored the Lord and led Israel into many victories. This shows the power of preparation. While preparation does not always feel good, it is absolutely necessary for who the Lord has called you to be.
