1Samuel 1:27 “For this child I prayed; and the LORD has given me my petition which I asked of him”
|
|
Hannah had a longing heart, it was for a child. Her whole being longed for this blessing. For her it was shame in those times not to have a family.
|
We read that “For this child I prayed”. God heard her and prepared the child that was to be born.
|
|
For us we can be doing the same thing. We could put our request in the brackets as well “For this woman / man, I prayed for”. God wants us to be praying even now for our future spouse and that both parties would be prepared for each other and moulded to suit each other.
|
|
Just imagine that right now somewhere in the world there is that dear one you hope who feels the potential sadness you feel and the longings you have.
|
This person LONGS for YOU as much as you long for them.
|
|
Pray for this person and ask God to bless them each day at work at home and church life. Ask the Lord help them through low and emotional times, and lonely times.
|
In doing so you will become part of that person even before you have met them.
|
Pray today “For this I have prayed for and the Lord HEARD me”.
