Oh, how the mighty heroes have fallen! Stripped of their weapons, they lie dead. [2 Samuel 1.27]
Saul met his demise on the slopes of Mount Gilboa. Part of that fate was the loss of three of his sons as well (which I assume Saul was aware of). It was a day of tragedy. It was a day of death. It was day without glory.
Did Saul have any idea that morning that it would be his last day? Probably not. Probably Saul had forgotten all about his disobedience to God. Probably, he had put it out of his mind. Probably he thought this day would simply be another day...
Just another day... Not.
Father, help me to understand that disobedience to You never ends well!
