Just read this part of the bible. Its shows what sort of king Saul is he is a king of the people not in a good way. He desires that his subjects adore him. He proclaimes a minor victory to all. He easily loses heart when he is confronted by a powerful enemy. He also try to use God as a lucky charm making sacrifices to him seeking his favour. However Godd desires obedience to his word. God takes away the kingdom from Saul for an act of disobedience. He is not living a life of faith but one of sight.
This makes us and the readers long for a King that listens to God a man after Gods own heart. This person arrives at Christmas. He is also able to deal with all our enemies sin death and Satan.
In short trust the King Jesus no matter what you present experience.
