It may have been that Saul was enduring God's discipline when the evil spirit was tormenting him.Holy crap, that site is killing Chrome, even with blocking stuff up. We are often tempted to disassociate unpleasant things and the hand of God, but the Bible makes it clear that He both allows and condones discipline for His children. Someone has said "pain is God's megaphone" and the existence of physical pain, the presence of evil spirits, or the persecution of evil men, can all legitimately be interpreted as discipline from God, our Father, who does not want us to continue in sin, but instead wishes us to bear the "peaceful fruit of righteousness" (Hebrews 12:7-11 Proverbs 3:11-12).

The evil spirit was not a continual presence-Saul was not possessed-but it would often come to him and trouble him. King Saul was the first King of Israel, and after repeated acts of disobedience (1 Samuel 13:1-14 15:1-35), the Bible says "Now the Spirit of the Lord departed from Saul, and a harmful spirit from the Lord tormented him" (1 Samuel 16:14).
