Hannah: Asking in Faith
Hannah is an excellent biblical example of asking in faith. She had married a man named Elkanah—and so had someone else. Through the years, Elkanah’s second wife, Peninnah, bore several sons and daughters to him, while Hannah remained barren. Hannah longed for a baby of her own.
Finally, one year Hannah went to the doorway of the tabernacle and wept and prayed to the Lord in great anguish, asking for a son and vowing to give him to the Lord. The Lord heard Hannah’s request and answered it. Nine months later she bore a son named Samuel, who grew up to become the prophet and judge of all Israel.
Would Samuel have been born if Hannah had not asked God to give her a son? The Bible seems to answer, “No.” Samuel appeared on the scene in direct response to Hannah’s heartfelt request.
