GO IN PEACE!

"She was in bitterness of soul, and prayed to the Lord and wept in anguish" (1 Samuel 1:10).
She was a brokenhearted women named Hannah. She was in terrible pain at heart as the Lord had closed her womb and she didnot have children of her own. People around her made her feel miserable about not having any children.
Hannah was inconsolable and was crying as she prayed. She poured out her heart to the Lord, making a vow to let her child serve all the days of his life, if God answered her petition.
She received God's word through a man named Eli, the Lord's priest.
Eli said to Hannah,
"Go in peace, the God of Israel grant your petition which you have asked of Him"
Hannah believed God's message completely and her face was no longer sad. Look at her faith!!
According to her faith, she was blessed with a son and she dedicated him to serve the Lord as promised.
The Lord not only hears your urgent prayer in the way we usually mean- but His hearing can mean that He agrees with your request and grants it. This was how the Lord heard Hannah's brokenhearted prayer.
The Lord is same even today and He hears you too!! He knows the anxieties and longings of your heart (psalm 37: 4,5)
Every drop of tear you shed, the Lord stores in His bottle. (Psalm 56:8).
His ears are open to your cry. He says to you today, "Go in peace, your request is granted".
Receive His promise through Faith.
And whatever things you ask in prayer, beleiving, you will receive.(Mathew 21:22).
When you work, you work.
When you pray, God works!
Amen!!
~Blessed Christian.
