Sin thinks it is the winner but in the end there will be a resurrection, a catching away, a rapture, of the saints. Thank God one day Jesus came forth and put to open shame all of the works of the devil and gave victory over sin. All Saul could do was fall on his face as every knee will bow and every tongue will confess in that great day of the Lord. God has departed, the prophets can't help me, dreams won't give me rest, and I don't know what to do. Saul was a man that had exhausted Grace, turned a deaf ear to genuine repentance, and marched headlong into the judgement of God without a thought of breaking the laws of God.
Sin always finds a pitiful, useless excuse.
Someone else to blame, someone else's fault, and someone else for help, when only God can help. Samuel preached his last sermon from the grave to a man whom he loved dearly while alive. He wept for Saul after God had rejected him. He prayed for Saul that God would forgive him. He interceded for Saul that God would not take the kingdom away from him.
