BIBLE READING: 1 Samuel 1:10-20
10 And she was in bitterness of soul, and prayed unto the Lord, and wept sore.
11 And she vowed a vow, and said, O Lord of hosts, if thou wilt indeed look on the affliction of thine handmaid, and remember me, and not forget thine handmaid, but wilt give unto thine handmaid a man child, then I will give him unto the Lord all the days of his life, and there shall no razor come upon his head.
12 And it came to pass, as she continued praying before the Lord, that Eli marked her mouth.
13 Now Hannah, she spake in her heart; only her lips moved, but her voice was not heard: therefore Eli thought she had been drunken.
14 And Eli said unto her, How long wilt thou be drunken? put away thy wine from thee.
15 And Hannah answered and said, No, my lord, I am a woman of a sorrowful spirit: I have drunk neither wine nor strong drink, but have poured out my soul before the Lord.
16 Count not thine handmaid for a daughter of Belial: for out of the abundance of my complaint and grief have I spoken hitherto.
17 Then Eli answered and said, Go in peace: and the God of Israel grant thee thy petition that thou hast asked of him.
18 And she said, Let thine handmaid find grace in thy sight. So the woman went her way, and did eat, and her countenance was no more sad.
19 And they rose up in the morning early, and worshipped before the Lord, and returned, and came to their house to Ramah: and Elkanah knew Hannah his wife; and the Lord remembered her.
20 Wherefore it came to pass, when the time was come about after Hannah had conceived, that she bare a son, and called his name Samuel, saying, Because I have asked him of the Lord.
MESSAGE:
Women go through a lot of ridicule and mockery due to many issues, but only some of them stand strong in the face of such challenges. One of such women was Hannah, who prayed to God with great faith and all her strength. When Peninnah mocked her, rather than insult or fight back, Hannah poured out her soul before the Lord, crying for a child. At the appointed time, God heard her heartfelt cry and blessed her with six children, including Prophet Samuel.
When people abuse or insult you over what is beyond your control, you do not need to fight them; rather, run to God for comfort and strength and remain steadfast in Him. When people mocked me for having a vision of building the largest auditorium for God’s church, I ran to Him for help and prayed fervently until He sent destiny helpers and resources for the project.
My dear child, whenever you are faced with challenges or obstacles, learn from Hannah; do not fight your enemies physically. Instead, go on your knees and pray to God until an answer comes.
KEY POINT
Father, please give me a miracle that will make my enemies rejoice with me.

Here To Eat Of Hidden Manna Sent From Heav’n,
Over Yonder He The Victors Palm Shall Bear,
And A Robe Of White, And Golden Crown Shall Wear.
