THE HANNAH'S STORY





image copyright Siyanspires 2018


So today... when I woke up, the first thing I did was not to  look at Pinterest thankfully.
When I picked my phone up, I read the first Book of Samuel that talks about the Long wait and the Miraculous conception of Samuel.

So it was quite different yet similar to the story I was told in kindergarten. Or perhaps it was because I had a new perspective to the story.

So Hannah's Husband  ELKANAH (not so sure about the spellings) love her so much that he gave more fold than he gave Penninah (cant be bothered to get the spelling right). So this actually means he really loved her dearly.

But what I'm actually worried or what got me Awestruck is that Elkanah loved Hannah so much, why did he marry another wife?

Could it mean he got another WIfe thinking Hannah might not have children?

what do I know?
I wasn't there so I cannot say...

But what really Struck me was? EAch Time Hannah cried and start to worry about  been childless, her hubby keeps saying
Yo!!  Am I  not more to you than 10 Sons...

I really would have love to watch Hannah's expression...
But you know what?
If Hannah didnt loose heself and roll on the floor at Shiloh, she wouldn't have begot Samuel
If she has said Yes, my Husband is more to me than 10 Sons, we wouldn't  have Samuel, because she would have accepted her fate.

Sometimes we have to be ready to  BREAK..... and BReak real hard
some people get so Comfortable with the chains and they cant Imagine their Life out of it,

We have to hold his Garment........just like the woman with the issue of blood.
We hAve to fight for our name to change  just the way Jacob did  with the Angel.

Jacob wrestle with the Angel to have his name change to Israel.
Like Hannah she held on to God, and God gave her Samuel

And she said.....For this child I have prayed
And the Lord answered  me😃😃

#Shalom

YOUR ROD AND STAFF

Image
Image from Google I grew up in Sub-Saharan Africa, a place with lots of plantation and vegetation, a place where Rod signifies  discipline  and Staff   Signifies Royalty and Authority.  A    place where everything is totally different from the status quo of the Western World.   9.999 out of 10 African Parents  use a rod as  a means to discipline their children. Sadly a child that has no rod to put him to order is believed to Stray, Stray away, Get lost in the wilderness of life.   Have you ever wondered why the Rod comes before the Staff in the bible, God our heavenly father, uses his rod to chastise us when we stray from his path, after which he comforts us with his staff after we’ve come back to him. He then prepares a table before us in the PRESENCE OF OUR ENEMIES…   Tell me , how better can that get? what more  can you ask for?  You have a Father that loves you well enough to correct you,  a Father who loves you enough to comfort you, a Father who loves you

LAMP UNTO MY FEET, LIGHT TO MY PATH!

Image
  WOW!!!  2020 AD(After the death of our Lord), I mean it's not over but we can both attest to the fact that it's been an extraordinary year!  Don't give me an horrible look cos the fact that you are able to read this actually means it's an Extraordinary year!, Our life has been transformed, for most of us forever!  Sigh! But you know one thing that has been constant! The word of God! During the course of the week, one verse stood out for me "The word of GOD is a lamp unto my feet and a light to my path" Let's break it down.... Imagine having a lamp under your feet? How is that even possible! But that's what the word God does. Having a lamp unto a feet  means  we will never walk alone,  We will never be confused,  we will never be in darkness,  we shall always know what to do! I want the Lamp! The word of God is also a light unto my path!  This is deep! well, it depends on the context that which you are looking at it from, in my own terms, it simply me
