🇺🇸Pray For The Peace of Jerusalem🇮🇱 (6/28/26)[Prayer]

Personalities
1 Samuel 1-18
1Â Now there was a certain man of Ramathaimzophim, of mount Ephraim, and his name was Elkanah, the son of Jeroham, the son of Elihu, the son of Tohu, the son of Zuph, an Ephrathite:
2Â And he had two wives; the name of the one was Hannah, and the name of the other Peninnah: and Peninnah had children, but Hannah had no children.
3Â And this man went up out of his city yearly to worship and to sacrifice unto the Lord of hosts in Shiloh. And the two sons of Eli, Hophni and Phinehas, the priests of the Lord, were there.
4Â And when the time was that Elkanah offered, he gave to Peninnah his wife, and to all her sons and her daughters, portions:
5Â But unto Hannah he gave a worthy portion; for he loved Hannah: but the Lord had shut up her womb.
6Â And her adversary also provoked her sore, for to make her fret, because the Lord had shut up her womb.
7Â And as he did so year by year, when she went up to the house of the Lord, so she provoked her; therefore she wept, and did not eat.
8Â Then said Elkanah her husband to her, Hannah, why weepest thou? and why eatest thou not? and why is thy heart grieved? am not I better to thee than ten sons?
9Â So Hannah rose up after they had eaten in Shiloh, and after they had drunk. Now Eli the priest sat upon a seat by a post of the temple of the Lord.
10Â And she was in bitterness of soul, and prayed unto the Lord, and wept sore.
11Â And she vowed a vow, and said, O Lord of hosts, if thou wilt indeed look on the affliction of thine handmaid, and remember me, and not forget thine handmaid, but wilt give unto thine handmaid a man child, then I will give him unto the Lord all the days of his life, and there shall no razor come upon his head.
12Â And it came to pass, as she continued praying before the Lord, that Eli marked her mouth.
13Â Now Hannah, she spake in her heart; only her lips moved, but her voice was not heard: therefore Eli thought she had been drunken.
14Â And Eli said unto her, How long wilt thou be drunken? put away thy wine from thee.
15Â And Hannah answered and said, No, my lord, I am a woman of a sorrowful spirit: I have drunk neither wine nor strong drink, but have poured out my soul before the Lord.
16Â Count not thine handmaid for a daughter of Belial: for out of the abundance of my complaint and grief have I spoken hitherto.
17Â Then Eli answered and said, Go in peace: and the God of Israel grant thee thy petition that thou hast asked of him.
18Â And she said, Let thine handmaid find grace in thy sight. So the woman went her way, and did eat, and her countenance was no more sad.

Personalities
1 Samuel 1-18
1 Now there was a certain man of Ramathaimzophim, of mount Ephraim, and his name was Elkanah, the son of Jeroham, the son of Elihu, the son of Tohu, the son of Zuph, an Ephrathite:
2 And he had two wives; the name of the one was Hannah, and the name of the other Peninnah: and Peninnah had children, but Hannah had no children.
3 And this man went up out of his city yearly to worship and to sacrifice unto the Lord of hosts in Shiloh. And the two sons of Eli, Hophni and Phinehas, the priests of the Lord, were there.
4 And when the time was that Elkanah offered, he gave to Peninnah his wife, and to all her sons and her daughters, portions:
5 But unto Hannah he gave a worthy portion; for he loved Hannah: but the Lord had shut up her womb.
6 And her adversary also provoked her sore, for to make her fret, because the Lord had shut up her womb.
7 And as he did so year by year, when she went up to the house of the Lord, so she provoked her; therefore she wept, and did not eat.
8 Then said Elkanah her husband to her, Hannah, why weepest thou? and why eatest thou not? and why is thy heart grieved? am not I better to thee than ten sons?
9 So Hannah rose up after they had eaten in Shiloh, and after they had drunk. Now Eli the priest sat upon a seat by a post of the temple of the Lord.
10 And she was in bitterness of soul, and prayed unto the Lord, and wept sore.
11 And she vowed a vow, and said, O Lord of hosts, if thou wilt indeed look on the affliction of thine handmaid, and remember me, and not forget thine handmaid, but wilt give unto thine handmaid a man child, then I will give him unto the Lord all the days of his life, and there shall no razor come upon his head.
12 And it came to pass, as she continued praying before the Lord, that Eli marked her mouth.
13 Now Hannah, she spake in her heart; only her lips moved, but her voice was not heard: therefore Eli thought she had been drunken. 14 And Eli said unto her, How long wilt thou be drunken? put away thy wine from thee.

The next "Personality" we will be exploring is that of the Prophet Samuel. He was the last of the Judges of Israel, before there were any kings. He had a long and fruitful life (and even shows up briefly AFTER his life ends), and like many great Bible Characters, was a "sprout from dry ground", ie: a child born from a woman who was considered infertile.
Samuel's mother Hannah wasn't infertile due to age or injury; she just wasn't getting pregnant. Her husband wasn't neglecting her, in fact he was very attentive to her and didn't care whether she had children or not. He had another wife who was having kids, but must have sensed that Hannah was more loved. Because of this, she abused Hannah, and made Hannah even more miserable.
Hannah's family were very devout, and brought sacrifices to the Temple, in keeping with the Law of Moses.
But, when Hannah goes to the Tabernacle, she does something remarkable. She actually PRAYS, pouring out her heart to God. This implies something that puzzles even Eli, the High Priest. He sees this distraught woman in the throes of profoundly personal prayer.
I don't want to sound disrespectful, but it would seem that Eli, despite his position as High Priest, doesn't have a clue about an actual Relationship with God, and he mistakes Hannah's fervent prayer as "drunkenness".
Although this event is separated from the Day of Pentecost by centuries, the Apostles were accused of the very same thing!

For whatever is hidden is meant to be disclosed, and whatever is concealed is meant to be brought out into the open. (Mark 4:22)

Joining in prayer for the Peace of Jerusalem and for our beloved America-250.
Have you noticed so many turning points in Scripture—like from the Judges to the Kings—hinged on the faith and prayer of women?
