Consecrate: Hannah’s Story

Welcome to the latest episode  featuring a powerful sermon by Pastor Lynda Heron as part of our "Consecrate" campaign based on Joshua 3:5. Today's sermon is titled "Hannah's Story," drawing from 1 Samuel 1:1-28.

Pastor Lynda begins by examining the story of Hannah, a woman who endured the pain of barrenness and the societal pressures that came with it. Despite her struggles, Hannah's desperation for the move of God led her to the altar, where she laid her desires before the Father. Lynda challenges listeners to reflect on their own barren areas and approach God with genuine desperation, laying everything down at His feet.

 Continuing her exploration of Hannah's story, Lynda highlights how Hannah carried the pain of her situation and expressed it fully to the Lord through prayer. She encourages listeners to embrace the act of crying out to God, dispelling the misconception that crying is a sign of weakness. Lynda emphasises the importance of being vulnerable and transparent in prayer, as God understands our emotions and desires to meet us in our pain.

 Moving forward, Lynda emphasises the power of prayer and the importance of seeking God's presence above all else. She urges believers to share their needs with fellow believers and pray together fervently, trusting in the Lord's sovereignty and ability to answer prayers.

 Finally, she reflects on Hannah's ultimate fulfilment of God's promise in the birth of her son, Samuel. She reminds listeners that every good thing in our lives belongs to God and encourages them to remain desperate for God's presence above all else. In times of need, Lynda urges believers to trust in God's timing and surrender to His will, allowing Him to work in their lives according to His purpose.

 Join us as we delve into the inspiring story of Hannah and learn valuable lessons about perseverance, prayer, and trusting in God's promises. Tune in to this episode for a message of hope and encouragement as we journey together in consecration and faith.
