1 & 2 Samuel (Program #4) – The History Concerning Samuel (2)
In the days of the Old Testament priest Eli, the priesthood among God’s people Israel was waning and has become stale. The situation was deteriorating and yet God desire to move on the earth even to change the age. But rather than doing something miraculous from the heavens God did what He has always done when He desires to go further with His purpose and move on the earth. He found persons that would co-operate with Him, that would be one with Him. In this instance, He found a weak and fragile and suffering sister among His people, named Hannah. Her co-operation was to pray a prayer that matched God’s need and God’s desire. And from this prayer came a son, Samuel whom the Lord’s used not only to turn that age but ultimately to bring in David and help to bring forth Christ. In God’s move He always limits Himself to work and co-operation with man.
