    Just as Samuel needed to learn how to apply what he had heard, we need teachers to rise up and teach the young people how to hear and apply His message to them.

    Hearing the Voice Of The Lord 1 Samuel 3:19-21 19 And Samuel grew, and the LORD was with him, and did let none of his words fall to the ground. 20 And all Israel from Dan even to Beersheba knew that Samuel was established to be a prophet of the LORD. 21 And the LORD appeared again in Shiloh: for ...read more

    God often deals with us at night. In the deepest night God brings Israel out of Egypt. At night God wrestles with Jacob. At midnight God looses Peter’s chains. At night Paul hears the Macedonian call. In the middle of the night God calls Samuel to serve.

    Night Calls – Part One: “A Call to Serve” 1 Samuel 3:1-21 Introduction: God’s word declares that “God is light and in Him is no darkness at all” As such we often equate times of trouble, of difficulty, of spiritual lows with the night. We speak of the thief coming in the night; of death stalking at ...read more

    Samuel - Speaking The Words Of God Series

    A short talk given at an early morning communion service. Samuel was young, but his first task after coming to know the Lord was to speak hard words from God to Eli (his mentor!) Will we also speak the truth, in love, to others?

    Samuel was a child, with priestly responsibilities (an interesting fact!) and he was being mentored by Eli in the Temple. Jesus primarily focused upon 12 men. Who has God entrusted to you, to teach and train in the ways of the Lord? “In those days the word of the Lord was rare; there were not many ...read more

    Samuel was ready to hear from God. He had a servant’s heart (practice), he was in the tabernacle (proximity) and he was willing to listen (position).

    This Kyle Idleman message begins in silence. Sometimes we talk too much. To hear God, we need to be where He speaks, confirm His voice, avoid distractions, & respond with obedience. (34 PP slides/posters are available on request)

    Who Is Called?

    Every believer is called to belong to God. Paul indicated to the Christians at Rome that both he and they had the same calling (Rom. 1:1, 6). Likewise, he wrote to the believers in Ephesus that just as there is one Spirit and one body (that is, the church

    Who Is “Called”? 1 Samuel 3:20 Are only certain people “called” by God to do important work for Him, such as the prophet and judge Samuel (1 Sam. 3:20)? The issue of “calling” tends to be confusing, largely because it deals with significance. Sometimes people talk about their day-to-day ...read more

    How are we supposed to know when God is speaking to us? How do we know when we are hearing from God or it is an idea from our own brain? 1 Sam 3 has four essential truths of guidance for us in answering this very important topic of hearing God’s voice.

    God is calling us first to salvation, then after salvation He calls to serve Him.

    Introduction: I played a joke with the congregation. I had someone call my cell phone while I began to preach. I would stop the call several times and say it must be tele-marketer and would stop the call. My phone rings again, this time I answer it. I pretent it is God talking to me on the phone.

    Do you really have God’s call upon your life? If so, what has He disclosed to you? What are you doing about it? Have you consulted your mentor or pastor about it? Are you completely captivated by God?

    God is trying to talk to all of us, but will we heed the still, small voice of God?

    My boyfriend Brian and I spend a lot of time walking and hiking. We go all over the place – the woods, the beach, sometimes just around the block. Some of the trails are really flat and wide and easy to walk on. Others are rocky and steep. On almost every hike, we hit a stretch of trail ...read more
