  • Samuel Confirmed as a Prophet

    Samuel Confirmed as a Prophet
    2026/07/26
    How does God call someone, and how is that calling confirmed? Although Samuel had faithfully served in the sanctuary, he did not yet recognize the Lord’s voice. Three times he went to Eli before Eli understood that God was calling the boy and instructed him to answer, “Speak, Lord, for Your servant is listening.” God then gave Samuel a difficult message concerning Eli’s household. Samuel was afraid to deliver it, but he faithfully spoke everything God had revealed. As Samuel continued to grow, the Lord remained with him and allowed none of his words to fail. Eventually, all Israel recognized that Samuel had been confirmed as a prophet. God’s calling is not limited by age, natural talent, status, or human importance. God calls servants, gives them the ability to accomplish His purpose, and asks them to remain faithful; whether the results appear successful or not. Every believer is called to serve and to bear witness to what God has done. Sermon Notes 1 Samuel 3:1 Samuel as a boy ministered to the Lord. The word and visions from the Lord was rare in those days 1 Samuel 3:2 & 3 Eli’s eyesight was decreasing. Samuel sleeps in the temple 1 Samuel 3:4 – 9 The Lord calls Samuel, but not knowing it’s God, goes to Eli in response to the call. After the third time Eli tells him it is the Lord calling and tells him what to say 1 Samuel 3:10 – 14 The Lord stans and tells Samuel what He is going to do with Eli and his household 1 Samuel 3:15 – 18 Samuel doesn’t want to tell Eli what the Lord said, but Eli compels him to 1 Samuel 3:19 - 21 Samuel continued to grow, the Lord was with him and all Israel knew that Samuel was confirmed as a prophet

  • Different Sons

    Different Sons
    2026/07/19
    Samuel was still a boy, yet he faithfully ministered before the Lord under Eli’s guidance. His mother, Hannah, continued supporting his calling by making him a linen garment each year. Samuel grew in stature and in favor with both God and people. Eli’s sons, Hophni and Phinehas, were the opposite. Though they inherited positions of priestly service, they did not know the Lord. They abused the sacrifices, exploited the people, dishonored the Tabernacle, and used their ministry for personal gain. Eli confronted them verbally but failed to remove them from service or take decisive action. This sermon examines the difference between inherited position and genuine faithfulness. It challenges parents, church leaders, and believers to help young people serve God, honor the Lord above family loyalty, take ministry seriously, and respond to correction with repentance. God offers forgiveness through Jesus Christ. The question is whether we will follow Samuel’s example of faithful service or harden our hearts like Eli and his sons. Sermon Notes 1 Samuel 2:11 Samuel as a boy ministered to the Lord 1 Samuel 2:12 The sons of Eli were worthless and did not know the Lord 1 Samuel 2:13 – 17 Examples of their conduct as priests 1 Samuel 2:18 &19 Samuel ministered before the Lord in linen clothing made by his mother 1 Sameul 2:20 Eli blessed Samuel’s parents because of their dedication to the Lord 1 Samuel 2:21 Hannah has 5 more children 1 Samuel 2:22 – 25 Eli hearing his sons misconduct tells them to stop but does not act 1 Samuel 2:26 Samuel grows in stature and in favor with the Lord and men 1 Samuel 2:27 – 36 The Lord judges Eli and his house and gives him a sign when the judgment will take place

  • Two Prayers

    Two Prayers
    2026/07/12
    Two prayers from Hannah’s life: one prayed in deep distress, and one prayed in joyful praise. Hannah was barren, provoked, misunderstood, and grieved. In her pain, she poured out her soul before the Lord and made a vow that if God gave her a son, she would dedicate him back to the Lord. Eli the priest misunderstood her at first, but after hearing her heart, he blessed her prayer, and Hannah left no longer sad. God answered her prayer, and Hannah gave birth to Samuel. But the story does not end with answered prayer. Hannah fulfilled her vow and returned Samuel to the Lord. Then she prayed again, not in sorrow, but in praise, exalting God for His holiness, strength, justice, and faithfulness. Hannah's reminds us that prayer should not only be passionate when we are asking God for help. Our praise and thanksgiving should be just as passionate when He answers. Whether God says yes, no, or wait, we are called to trust Him, rejoice in Him, and give Him the glory. Sermon Notes 1 Samuel 1:1 – 8 A man had 2 wives, one had children and the other was barren because of the Lord 1 Samuel 1:9 – 11 Hannah prayed, wept in distress and made a vow to the Lord 1 Samuel 1:12 – 16 Eli, the priest misinterpreted Hannah’s prayer and condition 1 Samuel 1:17 & 18 Eli says may the Lord grant your prayer and Hannah leaves no longer sad 1 Samuel 1:19 – 23 God grants Hannah’s prayer and has a son 1 Samuel 1:24 – 28 Hannah fulfills her vow 1 Samuel 2:1 – 5 Hannah prayer is full of praise to God
