SAMUEL'S CALL Hannah prayed to God and asked Him to give her a son. God answered |
|
What did Hannah ask God to give her? What did Hannah name her son? Where was Samuel taken when he was young? Who was really calling to Samuel? What jobs did Samuel have when he grew up? Has God called you yet? Dear God, Samuel was very young when was called by You. Help me serve You, besides my age (if is the case). At any age, please help me to be helpful to your cause and to others. In Jesus´ Name, Amen. Love, Tia Célia |
Hannah’s prayer, and she named her little boy Samuel. When Samuel was very
young, his mother took him to Eli, the priest. Samuel grew up helping Eli
in the temple. One night, when Samuel and Eli were asleep in the temple,
Samuel heard someone call his name. "Samuel!" He ran to Eli and said, "Here
I am." Eli said, "I did not call; go back and lie down." Samuel heard
someo
ne call his name three times. Eli realized that it was God calling to
Samuel. Eli told Samuel that the next time he heard his name, he should
say, "Speak, Lord, for your servant is listening" (NIV). God called Samuel
again, and Samuel talked with Him. When Samuel was older, God made him a
prophet, priest, and judge over Israel.
