I Samuel 3:1-4 What Did You Say?
Why Don’t We Hear God? • Is God silent? Psalm- 102:1-2 • Unconfessed sin- Psalm 32:3-5 • Little or no time in the Word- Psalm 119:9,11
What Can We Learn from Samuel’s Calling • The people of Israel were not feeding on God’s Word-v.1 Amos 8:11 II Timothy 4:2-4 • Parents and leaders didn’t care Ezekiel 34 1) Steeling from God 2) Open sexual immorality 3) No vision Proverbs 29:18 4) The Light was growing dim Exodus 27:20-21
What Kept Samuel from Hearing God? • The Word had not been revealed to him v.7 Deuteronomy 6 • Parents and leaders did not encourage God’s calling in his life
God is faithful • God calls Samuel repeatedly v.4,6,8,10 • God does not give up on his people v.8,9 Ezekiel 18:8,9 • The Lord speaks personally and repeatedly to each of us v.10 Psalm 139:13
The Lord has heard! Samuel
