Topic: LESSONS FROM HANNAH’S LIFE
Memory Verse: Heb. 13:8
“8 Jesus Christ is the same yesterday, today, and forever.”
Bible Reading: 1 Sam. 1: 1-3
“1 Now there was a certain man of Ramathaim Zophim, of the mountains of Ephraim, and his name was Elkanah the son of Jeroham, the son of Elihu, the son of Tohu, the son of Zuph, an Ephraimite. 2 And he had two wives: the name of one was Hannah, and the name of the other Peninnah. Peninnah had children, but Hannah had no children. 3 This man went up from his city yearly to worship and sacrifice to the LORD of hosts in Shiloh. Also the two sons of Eli, Hophni and Phinehas, the priests of the LORD, were there.”
SERVING GOD ISN’T AN IMMUNE TO CHALLENGE.
The Lord our God is the same in all situations. He changes not, come what may. He can never change His mind because of our situations. Serving God, seeking God and worshipping Him is not a guaranty to a free-challenge life, No. But it’s always a path way out of all forms of difficulties for genuine Christians.
From the story of Hannah, we were made to know, that, her husband, Elkanah, was a Godly man, who observe yearly Shiloh in his days. His way of life shouldn’t have attracted childlessness to his lovely wife, Hannah. They were suppose to be in the position to tell God, “we don’t need children again” but reverse was the case. That you are fervent in God’s house doesn’t make you immune to challenges.
I want you to know that, the God of the Mountain is still the God in the valley. The God in surplus is still the God of scarcity. Hannah never quitted during her time of loneliness despite the mockery. Challenges are real and free for everyone but serving and seeking God brings genuine victory over them all.
I pray with you this morning, those challenges that seems endless will come to an end in Jesus Mighty Name. God is with you, He changes not.
Have A Great Day Ahead.
