Saul was commanded by God through Samuel to destroy everything in the amalekites city for this is God's wrath against them for attacking the israelites in the past.
Saul was to destroy everything. Absolutely everything. But he didn't cause he valued worldly treasures more than obedience to God.
Sin leads to sin. Sin grows. His sin of greed soon led to the sin of lying to God.
Let us value obedience to God more than the fleeting treasures of this world. Let us not let sin have a foot hold lest it grows like yeast does to bread in our lives, leading us in a downward spiral.
