1 Samuel 3

The report of the prophet Samuel’s birth, how it came to be, and how God used the process to capture the heart of a mother and father to reveal His will to them is worth another look. This morning, let me give you the outline for those 21 verses in chapter 3 and today, read them for yourself. You could entitle the chapter: Discovering God’s plans for me.

1 Samuel 3:1 Be faithful in the little things and seek to please God in private. Be diligent even when God is silent.

1 Samuel 3:2-10 Wait for God to open doors for you, preparation takes time!

1 Samuel 3:11-14 Be ready to listen and obey.

1 Samuel 3:15-18 Share all of God’s Word in love.

1 Samuel 3:19-20 Stay teachable and faithful to declare only God’s Word and not your own.

1 Samuel 3:21 Let God establish you, do not seek a position for yourself, simply seek the Lord.

May the Lord show you His will for your life,
