Key Scripture: 1 Samuel 9:3, 15 – 18 (Saul turned from a donkey seeker to King of Israel)

1 Samuel 9:3 (NKJV); Now the donkeys of Kish, Saul’s father, were lost. And Kish said to his son Saul, “Please take one of the servants with you, and arise, go and look for the donkeys.”

1 Samuel 9: 15 – 18 (NKJV); 15 Now the Lord had told Samuel in his ear the day before Saul came, saying, 16 “Tomorrow about this time I will send you a man from the land of Benjamin, and you shall anoint him commander over My people Israel, that he may save My people from the hand of the Philistines; for I have looked upon My people, because their cry has come to Me.” 17 So when Samuel saw Saul, the Lord said to him, “There he is, the man of whom I spoke to you. This one shall reign over My people.” 18 Then Saul drew near to Samuel in the gate, and said, “Please tell me, where is the seer’s house?”

God had pre-determined or ordained it.
Our God declares the end from the beginning (Isaiah 46:10 NIV)
God is able to turn our frustrations into divine set ups for our breakthroughs [Luke 5:1 – 6 – disciples led by Simon Peter hadn’t caught anything all night [v5a] and had given up, but they obedience to Jesus’ command was their breakthrough].
Examples of Divine Set ups [examples 2 to 6 are just for mentioning, no need to project scriptures] – Project only no

The Crushing of Satan at the Cross [1 Cor. 2:7 - 8 NKJV; which (God’s wisdom revealed by the spirit) none of the rulers of this age knew; for had they known, they would not have crucified the Lord of glory. 2:14 -15] – Jesus came as the 2nd Adam (we shall revisit). In Gen 3:15, God speaks to the serpent (Rev12:9) and pronounces judgment on him.
Mordecai Honoured (Esther 6:1 – 11) - That night the king could not sleep; so he ordered the book of the chronicles, the record of his reign, to be brought in and read to him (Mordecai had exposed scheme to execute king – Esther 2:19 – 23)
Esther (a Jewish exile & orphan) made a queen (Esther 1:10 – 12, Esther 2:17 – 18). - Queen Vashti stubbornness was a divine set up for Esther’s divine elevation (from a slave girl to a queen).
Joseph divine connection with King’s Cup Bearer in Prison (Genesis 40:12 – 15) – Cup Bearer informed Pharaoh about Joseph prowess in dream interpretation & Pharaoh quickly sent for him (Genesis 41:9 – 14).
David (shepherd boy) killing of Goliath (1 Samuel 17:17 - ) – His being sent out by his father to check on his brothers was a divine set up for his divine elevation. Stayed in palace, had favour with all Israel and Judah (1 Sam 18:14 – 16) & became King Saul’s son-in-law.
Ruth’s resolve to stick to Naomi (Ruth 1:16 – 19) – her divine set up to be married by Boaz and end up being in the lineage of Jesus (Obed the father to Jesse, and Jesse the father of David).
Saul Chosen to Be King of Israel
1 Samuel 9:1 – 27 to 1 Samuel 10:1 – 16 (Saul turned from a donkey seeker to King of Israel)

1 Sam 9:15 – This was a set up by God – Divine set up.
