1 Samuel 2 - Hannah's Prayer and Eli's Sons

Joy in God can overflow even in hard places. In 1 Samuel 2, Hannah’s prayer rises with praise and confidence in the Lord who lifts the lowly and humbles the proud. Yet the same chapter contrasts that joy with the corruption of Eli’s sons, who treated the Lord’s offering with contempt. Pastor Paul shows how God sees the heart, weighs motives, and honors those who honor Him. Here we learn that worship is not just songs or sacrifices—it is surrender, reverence, and living in a way that reflects God’s character.Subscribe to Through the Bible with Pastor Paul for verse-by-verse teaching through all 66 books of Scripture.
