Never give up Prayer

Prayer isn't the only thing we do, but it is the first thing we do."

Never give up Prayer.

Reference: 1 Samuel 1:12-13,17, 26-28,2:20-21  CEVUK

Hannah prayed silently to the LORD for a long time. But her lips were moving; Eli replied, “You may go home now and stop worrying. I'm sure the God of Israel will answer your prayer.” Later The Lord Blessed the couple with a son.  She named him Samuel because she has asked the Lord for him. “Sir,” Hannah said, “a few years ago I stood here beside you and asked the LORD to give me a child. Here he is! The LORD gave me just what I asked for. Now I am giving him to the LORD, and he will be the LORD's servant for as long as he lives.”

Eli would always bless Elkanah and his wife and say, “Samuel was born in answer to your prayers. Now you have given him to the LORD. I pray that the LORD will bless you with more children to take his place.” After Eli had blessed them, Elkanah and Hannah would return home. The LORD was kind to Hannah, and she had three more sons and two daughters. But Samuel grew up at the LORD's house in Shiloh.

It was an intense, 140-mile mission driven by fury to eradicate the followers of Christ—a mission sanctioned by the chief priest and spiritual leader but not approved by the Lord. God will halt what He does not permit , and so Saul was abruptly stopped, stunned by a blinding flash of light. In that moment, Jesus commanded him to go into the city, where he would be told what to do next. God has us where He wants us.... Saul had order, but in a split second, the very people he was leading ended up guiding him after a heavenly encounter caused him to lose his sight. Realizing he had been doing the exact opposite of what was right in the name of religion, he experienced a relationship with God for...
