One Year Bible: Day 139 - 1 Samuel 2:27-4:22; John 11:1-44; Psalm 64:1-10
In
the days of Samuel’s youth, “the word of the Lord was rare” (1 Samuel
3:1). Nevertheless, “the lamp of God had not yet gone out” (1 Samuel
3:3). God began to do a new work, with Samuel at the very heart of it.
This new work was like a “resurrection”, out of the ashes came life –
“Jesus called in a loud voice, ‘Lazarus, come out!’ The dead man came
out” (John 11:43-44). This is the kind of thing that God was doing in
Samuel’s day: “See, I am about to do something in Israel that will make
the ears of everyone who hears about it tingle” (1 Samuel 3:11). The
results of such a mighty work of God are described in Psalm 64:9-10:
“All people will fear; they will proclaim the works of God and ponder
what He has done. The righteous will rejoice in the Lord and take refuge
in Him; all the upright in heart will glory in Him!”
