based on 1 rating

| 247 views

Hannah’s prayer in 1 Samuel 2 is not polished theology from an ivory tower; it is worship forged in pain, humiliation, unanswered prayer, and finally—astonishing grace. And at the heart of her song stands this thunderous confession:

There Is No Rock Like Our God – 1 Samuel 2:2 Introduction: When the Ground Beneath You Shakes We are living in a world that feels increasingly unstable. Economies wobble. Moral certainties erode. Identities shift. Trust in institutions collapses. People are searching—desperately—for something ...read more

There was a day wnen the people of God would go to church, not just to sing songs about God or to hear stories about what God did in the past, but they came to church to meet with God. To see His power and His glory.

THE GLORY OF GOD: I came across this humourous story on the internet recently: Little Johnny had been misbehaving and was sent to his room. He emerged a couple minutes later and informed his mother that he had thought things over and had even said a little prayer. The mother was very happy and ...read more

When clay is soft and pliable it is easy to make an impression on. When it becomes dry and hard change doesn’t come easy. In fact it can’t come unless the potter applies water and pressure to bring a pliable nature back to the clay.

JEREMIAH 18; Go down to the shop where clay pots and jars are made. I will speak to you while you are there.” So I did as he told me and found the potter working at his wheel. But the jar he was making did not turn out as he had hoped, so the ...read more
