In this episode of Bible Bytes, I walk through the moving story of Hannah from 1 Samuel, reflecting on her honest and persistent prayer, her vow to dedicate Samuel to the Lord, and God’s faithfulness in answering according to His perfect timing.
We explore practical applications for today: bringing our deepest needs to God without pretense, keeping our promises with integrity, trusting His timing in seasons of waiting, and investing in the next generation through mentorship and discipleship. I close with encouragement to remember God’s past faithfulness as fuel for hope and perseverance, and I preview our next episode on Hannah’s prayer of praise in 1 Samuel 2:1–10.
