1 Samuel 10:9

Samuel
New life and rebirthThe Holy SpiritIdentity and self-worth

7 When these signs have come, do as the occasion demands, for God is with you.

8 And you shall go before me to Gilgal, and surely I will come to you to offer burnt offerings and to sacrifice peace offerings. Wait seven days until I come to you and show you what you are to do.”

As Saul turned to leave Samuel, God changed Saul’s heart, and all the signs came to pass that day.

10 When Saul and his servant arrived at Gibeah, a group of prophets met him. Then the Spirit of God rushed upon him, and he prophesied along with them.

11 All those who had formerly known Saul and saw him prophesying with the prophets asked one another, “What has happened to the son of Kish? Is Saul also among the prophets?”
