Who is Your Hero? Hannah's Hero

1 Samuel 2:1-2

Hannah had prayed with a bitter heart. Now her heart expresses joy.

Joy is lasting but happiness is fleeting.

Hannah’s joy comes from her position “in the Lord.”

“My horn” is in reference to power.

Hannah’s power comes from her position “in the Lord.”

The greatest power over people is sin. But those that are in Christ have power over sin. Romans 6:5-14

She can smile at her enemies because the Lord has saved her. Nothing and no one can take that from her. Romans 8:31-39

God is Unique

1 Samuel 2:3-8

If it is unfit for others to hear it is unfit to say.

Everything you do and say must be done knowing that the Lord is the God of knowledge.

God is the hero of those who need heroes. See also Matthew 5:3-6 and James 4:6

Christ is Empowered

1 Samuel 2:9-10

How the Lord blessed Hannah:

  1. The Lord gave Hannah the power to go home without Samuel. 1 Samuel 2:11.
  2. The Lord gave her an opportunity to visit her son on a regular basis. 1 Samuel 2:18-20
  3. The Lord blessed Hannah with more children. 1 Samuel 2:21
  4. The Lord allowed Hannah to see her son grow in God. 1 Samuel 2:21
  5. The Lord gave Hannah a prophecy that is the first utterance. 1 Samuel 2:10.
Your Hero, Too

Is it happiness or joy that fills your heart?

What has power over you? People? Emotions? A situation?

Have you trusted in the Lord’s salvation or on in your own strength?
