He inquired of the LORD, but the LORD did not answer him
by dreams or Urim or prophets.
I Samuel 28:6 NIV
Why is God silent towards Saul?
Won’t God answer everyone who seeks Him?
Not always; apparently not when you are in a place of judgment as Saul is.
King Saul has rejected and is currently rejecting God’s previously revealed will.
Since Saul doesn’t care to obey God in what he already knows, God will not give him more to know.
Not that different from our own lives.
We want to know God's will for our lives, but often when it is revealed we respond with a "No thanks, try again!"
The saying goes, "Don't ask for an answer if your aren't willing to hear the response!"
And so we pray, "Our Father . . ."
