In this video listen to 1 Samuel Chapter 28, read by David Alley, followed by comments and prayer.

In 1 Samuel Chapter 28 the Philistines are mobilising for full scale war against Israel and David is asked to join them. David and his men are now in a very tricky position. They have played the double agent for years, and now the rubber hits the road where their loyalty will surely be exposed. We will see how the Lord helps David through in the chapters after this. Meanwhile Saul is terrified and enquires of the Lord, who ignores him.

Saul had treated the Lord so badly, killing the priests and chasing the one anointed to be king, is it any wonder God wouldn’t talk to him. However the real reason is that Saul was rejected by God and the Lord was in the process of putting him to death as advised in 1 Chronicles
