Have you ever been mistreated or misunderstood?
Have you been the person that others take pleasure in making you feel bad?
What did you do about it?
Did you disregard God’s Word and sought to exact vengeance on your adversary rather let God? Or, did you misuse Scripture and say in your heart “an eye for an eye and a tooth for a tooth?”
What do u do when the adversary is using people to attack you?Remember
Turn to the next slide Ephesians
We don’t fight people.
We fight the Enemy
Should we remember God’s instructions that “Vengeance is Mine, said the Lord, and He will repay!”
Should we remember that Bod’s Word that “many are the afflictions of the righteous but the LORD will deliver them from them all.”
Should we follow God’s instructions to “casted all your cares on the Lord because He cares for you.”
Remember, Hannah who was hassled daily.
She endured a heckler day other day.
Read (1 Sam.
1:6-7) Stop at “she provoked her”
The riding and taunting caused her to be sore, grieved, and frustrated.
Read the end of verse 7
In a state of grief, she became ABASED before the LORD
In a state of grief, she made an APPEAL to the LORD
In a state of grief, she made an ASSERTION before the LORD
Title: From Weeping to Worship
I: When I saw the Sacredness of God
EXP: Hannah prayed that no one is holy like the LORD.
God is so far from us.
He deserves our worship
II: When I saw the Shrewdness of God
Exp:
III: When I saw the Sovereignty of God
EXP: Hannah recognized the Sovereignty of God.
She found herself in a situation with a loving husband but she was barren.
She had a wealth but she was being ridiculed.
Yes, she relied on the Lord.
Yes, she desired a child.
Yes, her husband had 2 wives.
Yes, she wept and sobbed.
Hannah prayed (look at verse 6-7)
IV.
When I saw the Softheartedness of God
EXP: She was
Belittled because she had no baby
Cutdown because she had no child
Scoff at because she had no son
(verse 8-9)
With the removal of her reproach, it proved that the LORD is Softhearted or Merciful
With the removal of the mocking from the other wife, it proved that the Lord is Softhearted or Compassionate.
With the removal of the stigma of being barren, it proved to Hannah that the Lord is just who He says He is.
Hannah was being tested to see if her yearly trip to the temple was just a ritual or was it real worship.
God is the source of her joy!
She didn’t rejoice in the prize.
She rejoiced in the LORD.
She didn’t rejoice in the product.
She rejoiced in the LORD.
She didn’t rejoice in the answered prayer.
She rejoiced in His Person.
Just like Hannah you and I may have counseled other that He is a Softhearted (Merciful) God
Just like her, you and I may have quoted Scripture that God is a Sovereign
Just like Hannah, you and I may have told other we are relying on the only Shrewd (Wise) God
Just like her you and I may have testified that God is is a Sacred (Holy).
But what happened when your life got turned upside down
What happened when your body turned on you?
What did you do when your family turned on you?
What did you do when you had trouble on every side?
What happened when you were perplexed?
What did you do when you were persecuted?
What happened when you got cast down and God seemed far away?
Hannah humbled herself- She said I can’t but the LORD can
She called on the LORD in prayer
She made a vow to the Lord
With her words “if You will” she recognized that it is based on the Mercy and Will of God
With her promise she recognized that everything belongs to the LORD anyway.
