*Today’s Scripture :*
1 Samuel 2:21, NKJV
The Eternal One showed His favour toward Hannah again, and she conceived and gave birth to three sons and two daughters, and her son Samuel grew up in the presence of the Eternal One.
*Today's Word :*
Hannah had been married for many years but remained barren. She came to a place of deep distress and cried out to God. In response to Hannah’s passionate prayers, the Lord gave her a baby boy named Samuel whom she dedicated to the service of the house of the God. That could have been a wonderful end to the story, but God likes to exceed our expectations. She asked for one son, but look at God’s goodness. He said, in effect, “Hannah, you’re satisfied, but I’m not. I’m going to show you My favour again and again, and bring you more children than you ever imagined.”
What you’re believing for may not have happened yet. It may be taking a long time, it may be discouraging, but as with Hannah, God is faithful. He’s not only still going to bring it to pass—that would be good enough—but God is going to do more than you asked for. He’s going to visit you again and again with His favour. He’s going to show out in another way. You’ve had your Samuel, but it’s just the start - many more are on the way coming!
*Prayer For Today :*
“Father, thank You that You know best when it comes to the things I desire and ask You for. Thank You that You keep doors closed and take me through challenges I don’t understand, but You also open doors wider than I can ever imagine. I believe that You will show me Your favour again and again. In Jesus’ Name, Amen.”
