The power of prayer-8

Syllabus-38

"And Eli looked upon her face, while Hannah prayed before the Lord." 1 Samuel 1:12

Hannah had no children because she was barren. Who else but Hannah would understand how miserable it is to be barren in a married life? But she believed in God and in His great power. So she decided to pray to God without ceasing. Eli was the priest at the temple of God in Shiloh. One day Hannah went to the temple and prayed and wept before the Lord for a long time. She was praying in her heart, but her lips were moving. She prayed so long and so passionately that Eli thought she might be drunk with wine.

The difference between traditional and formal prayer and emotional prayer can be clearly understood from that incident. Although Eli was a priest of God, he never entered the life of prayer. The prayer and worship he did in the temple was habitual. And those who came to the temple to pray would pray habitually. Eli the priest's idea of ​​prayer was not above this. But Hannah's prayer was not a habitual prayer. She came to understand God with deep faith. The desire to have children had become so strong in her life that she did not pay attention to anything else. What people would think if she prayed long or prayed with tears, or what Eli the priest would think, these thoughts did not exist in her life. True spiritual prayer is not comparable to all of these. Hannah's situation was also like that. Therefore, a great work was accomplished in her prayer. The blocked uterus was freed. Hannah conceived. Blessed be the name of the Lord!

"He makes the barren woman a wife, a joyful mother of children." Psalm 113:9.
