The basic message that I read into this was that of obedience to what God has laid before me. Saul did not completely destroy the Amelakites but rather saves the King and keeps the best cattle for a sacrifice. But God tells Samuel that he is not happy with that. There have been many times in my life (including recently) that I have not fully obeyed God and even times when I have refused to completely destroy something from my life, to cut it all out, some root has always remained. But that is disobedience. It keeps me from being the person that I could be.
God says in verse 22 that he prefers obedience to sacrifice, he likes us to do what he knows is best rather than what we think he wants!
The call is for obedience, this will allow me to fullfill my purpose and destiny in God! I should be totally sold out for acomplishing the things God has laid before me and not hold back until that has been achieved.
