God rejects Israel; Israel pleads for restoration and help for victory against their enemies. “O grant us help against the foe, for human help is worthless. With God we shall do valiantly; it is He who will tread down our foes.”

ACAD – Rejection: 1 Samuel 15
Saul disobeys God’s instructions; God rejects Saul as king. “Has the Lord as great delight in burnt offerings and sacrifices, as in obedience to the voice of the Lord? Surely, to obey is better than sacrifice, and to heed than the fat of rams. For rebellion is no less a sin than divination, and stubbornness is like iniquity and idolatry. Because you have rejected the word of the Lord, He has also rejected you from being king.”
ACAD – Rejected: 1 Samuel 10
Israel continues to reject God while accepting Saul as their king and savior. “Thus says the Lord, the God of Israel, ‘I brought up Israel out of Egypt, and I rescued you from the hand of the Egyptians and from the hand of all the kingdoms that were oppressing you.’ But today you have rejected your God, who saves you from all your calamities and your distresses; and you have said, ‘No! but set a king over us.’”
ACAD – Rejected: Numbers 14
The people of Israel despised the Lord, believed a bad report of the promised land and rejected it. “Then the glory of the Lord appeared at the tent of meeting to all the Israelites. And the Lord said to Moses, “How long will this people despise me? And how long will they refuse to believe in me, in spite of all the signs that I have done among them? I will strike them with pestilence and disinherit them, and I will make of you a nation greater and mightier than they.””
