Mobile Daily Devotional with Oluboye Emmanuel Week 13, Day 1, Sunday, 23rd March, 2025 TOPIC: LESSONS FROM HANNAH'S LIFE; We are not Immune To Challenges. (1)


TOPIC: LESSONS FROM HANNAH'S LIFE; We are not Immune To Challenges. (1)

One Year Bible Reading: 
Deuteronomy 25 - 27, Luke 5: 1 - 16.

MEMORY VERSE: 
Heb. 13:8
"8 Jesus Christ is the same yesterday, today, and forever."

BIBLE READING:
1 Sam. 1: 1-3
"1 Now there was a certain man of Ramathaim Zophim, of the mountains of Ephraim, and his name was Elkanah the son of Jeroham, the son of Elihu, the son of Tohu, the son of Zuph, an Ephraimite. 2 And he had two wives: the name of one was Hannah, and the name of the other Peninnah. Peninnah had children, but Hannah had no children. 3 This man went up from his city yearly to worship and sacrifice to the LORD of hosts in Shiloh. Also the two sons of Eli, Hophni and Phinehas, the priests of the LORD, were there."

Thinking Point:
Servicing God is an invitation to opposition and trails.

The Lord our God is the same in all situations. He changes not, come what may. He can never change His mind because of our situations. Meanwhile, Serving God, seeking God and worshipping Him is not a guarantee to a challenge-free life, No. But it's always a path way out of all forms of difficulties for genuine Christians.

From the story of Hannah, we were made to know that her husband, Elkanah, was a Godly man, who observed Shiloh in his days. His way of life shouldn't have attracted childlessness to his lovely wife, Hannah. They were supposed to be in the position to tell God, "we don't need children again" but the reverse was the case. That you are fervent in God's house doesn't make you immune to challenges.

I want you to know that the God of the Mountain is still the God in the valley. The God in surplus is still the God of scarcity. Hannah never quitted during her time of loneliness despite the mockery. Challenges are real and free for everyone but serving and seeking God brings genuine victory over them all.

I pray with you this morning, those challenges that seem endless will come to an end in Jesus Mighty Name. God is with you, He changes not.

Good morning, and God bless you.

" Why Are You Afraid?" Bible Passage: Mark 4:36-40. "36. they took Jesus in the boat and started out, leaving the crowds behind (although other boats followed)." "37. But soon a fierce storm came up. High waves were breaking into the boat, and it began to fill with water." "38. Jesus was sleeping at the back of the boat with his head on a cushion. The disciples woke him up, shouting, “Teacher, don’t you care that we’re going to drown?” "39. When Jesus woke up, he rebuked the wind and said to the waves, “Silence! Be still!” Suddenly the wind stopped, and there was a great calm." "40. Then he asked them, “Why are you afraid? Do you still have no faith?” Opposition After Victory  When Jesus was resting in the boat comfortably after His crusade with different signs and wonders. The devil saw that he lost many battles, many of his captives were delivered and set free from their shackles. He was enraged at Jesus. The reason for th...

HOW DO YOU TREAT YOUR PEOPLE?

HOW DO YOU TREAT YOUR PEOPLE?  Who are My people? My people start with my immediate Family, my extended family, my relatives, the folds of believers, my tribe, friends, colleagues and then my Nation. How far can you go to protect your people; Your family, relatives, home and your nation? How committed are you to your people? Hope you are not selfish about your people for greed of money, position, title and wealth? Using Esther As Our Case Study For This Article "6. For how can I endure to see MY PEOPLE AND MY FAMILY slaughtered and destroyed?” Who was Esther? She was a slave and an orphan brought up by Mordecai in Babylon. She was pretty, well trained and loyal to her uncle. Her humble and trained life helped her take over the throne of Vashti. Pride caused the dethroning of the Queen before Esther. Queen Esther was living in immunity as a Queen but used her position to help her people by saving them from nationwide destruction. Esther was a woman who made history til...
