“Let us bring the ark of our God back to us, for we did not inquire of it during the reign of Saul." Perhaps this is the problem. The reason Saul and the children of Israel had so much trouble.
It is the reason people have trouble today, they don’t ask God what they should do. There does seem to be a lot of asking to be saved after we find ourselves in a mess, but maybe there would be less if we stopped and asked God before the mess.
These people as the church today were supposed to be the people of God. They and we have rituals and routines but are we inquiring of God?
I have heard it said when all else fails read the instructions. How much easier would life be if rather than trying to fix what is messed up, we learn what we should be doing in the first place? This is what we need to be looking for to make life better, God's advice in the first place.
