Hannah The Power of Prayer

1 Samuel

Our God is the true and living God that is the God of compassion and the God of Glory!

When we go back and look into the Old Testament history and we see God being glorified in the work that He did to bring the children of Israel out of the Egyption bondage they suffered. He heard their cry and brought them out with a mighty arm. We learn from the children of Israel as He brought them out that they were not as trusting as they should be. There was a very dark period in their history recorded in the Book of Judges. When you go throught that you see the wickedness and it’s just appalling. It’s terrible to think about all the things that happened back then.

But, as we are thankful for the sunrise and the light of the day on the horizon, certainly that is the time in the history of God’s people that we are going to talk about tonight. A time in which the Spirit of the judges was about to end and a godly faithful woman was instrumental in bringing this about. So, let’s open our bibles to the book of 1 Samuel and let’s read together about this godly woman named Hannah.
