2. The people of Israel had no king…

3. But they had Judges

4. And the Judges would settle any
arguments between people

5. But the people were tired of judges
and wanted a king instead.

6. So they asked the prophet Samuel to
ask God for a king.

7. A farmer named Saul was looking for
his missing donkeys which escaped
their barn

8. Saul went to find the prophet Samuel
to ask where his donkeys might be.

9. Samuel told
Saul that God
had chosen
him to be the
first King of
Israel

10. Saul just wanted to find his missing
donkeys. Samuel told him to walk
down the road.

11. On the way
he met a man

12. The man told him where to
find his missing donkeys

13. Then he met three
men.

14. One with 3
goats, one
with 3 loaves
of bread, and
one with a
bottle of
wine.

15. Then he met a bunch of prophets

16. And Saul danced with
the prophets

17. And Samuel found Saul and
anointed him king over Israel

18. But when the time came to
present Saul to the people….

19. Saul didn’t want to be king, so
he went and hid.

20. But Samuel found Saul and anointed
him king in front of all the people.

21. And Saul was made the king in
front of everyone.

22. Years passed, and it turned out that
the country of Israel had some
enemies…

23. The Philistines were camped out
along the border with Israel

24. Saul was told by Samuel
to just wait 7 days and
Samuel would come

25. And then Samuel would come and
make an offering to the Lord.

26. But Saul got tired of waiting and
decided to do it himself.

27. Suddenly Samuel appeared and asked
what Saul was doing!

28. Why couldn’t you wait for God?

29. After this God sent Samuel to the
house of Jesse.

30. Samuel was
to choose a
new king
from Jesse’s
sons.

31. But as Samuel looked at each
one, he didn’t feel God’s spirit.

32. He asked Jesse if he had any more
sons?

33. Jesse said he had a younger
son, David

34. David was a shepherd.

35. David takes care of the sheep all
day.

36. So they waited until David came
back from watching the sheep.

37. And then Samuel anointed him as
God’s next chosen king in front of his
brothers.

38. The Philistines came back though.
And David’s older brothers went to
be in the army.

39. Jesse asked David to take his
brothers some food and supplies

40. When David arrived he found the
two armies facing one another.

41. But now the Philistines had a champion
– Goliath. They were daring anyone to
come fight their giant.

42. But everyone in Saul’s army was
too scared to go fight him.

43. But David went up and told King
Saul that he would fight Goliath.

44. Watching the sheep I have to
fight off wild animals.

45. I have killed a lion and a wolf with
my slingshot

46. So King Saul insisted that David
wear his armour.

47. But it was too big for him.

48. So David went
out against
Goliath with just
a sling.

49. David told Goliath that Israel had
God with them

50. And David killed Goliath, and the
Israelites won.

51. David became a hero. He went to
live in the palace, and eventually
married the Princess Michal.

52. Sometimes, to sooth the king, David
would play his harp.

53. But this time King Saul was jealous
and angry

54. King Saul
threw a spear
at David.

55. Fortunately it missed. And David went
back home.

56. The soldiers came to David’s house
looking for him.

57. Michal told them that David was
asleep.

58. But she had wrapped up blankets to
look like someone was sleeping in the
bed.

59. And David escaped from the
soldiers out the back.

60. From that point on, David was
on the run from King Saul.

61. And one day David and his men were
hiding in a cave when King Saul came
into the same cave to rest.

62. King Saul didn’t know David and his
men were hiding in the same cave.

63. And David found King
Saul asleep in the cave.
And he cut off a piece
of his robe to prove he
had been there.

64. And David
called out to
King Saul as
he left the
cave and
showed the
cloak.

65. Then Saul let David know that he
wouldn’t hunt him any longer.

66. Saul promised David that he
wouldn’t try and hurt him again.
