Bible Passage: I Samuel 3: 1-10 (KJV)

1 And the child Samuel ministered unto the LORD before Eli. And the word of the LORD was precious in those days; there was no open vision.

2 And it came to pass at that time, when Eli was laid down in his place, and his eyes began to wax dim, that he could not see;

3 And ere the lamp of God went out in the temple of the LORD, where the ark of God was, and Samuel was laid down to sleep;

4 That the LORD called Samuel: and he answered, Here am I.

5 And he ran unto Eli, and said, Here am I; for thou calledst me. And he said, I called not; lie down again. And he went and lay down.

6 And the LORD called yet again, Samuel. And Samuel arose and went to Eli, and said, Here am I; for thou didst call me. And he answered, I called not, my son; lie down again.

7 Now Samuel did not yet know the LORD, neither was the word of the LORD yet revealed unto him.

8 And the LORD called Samuel again the third time. And he arose and went to Eli, and said, Here am I; for thou didst call me. And Eli perceived that the LORD had called the child.

9 Therefore Eli said unto Samuel, Go, lie down: and it shall be, if he call thee, that thou shalt say, Speak, LORD; for thy servant heareth. So Samuel went and lay down in his place.

10 And the LORD came, and stood, and called as at other times, Samuel, Samuel. Then Samuel answered, Speak; for thy servant heareth.

MEMORY VERSE: “And the LORD came, and stood, and called as at other times, Samuel, Samuel. Then Samuel answered, Speak; for thy servant heareth.” – 1 Samuel 3:10

LESSON INTRODUCTION:

You cannot hear, if there is no call from somewhere or someone. Also, you can only answer to a call that you hear. A call can come from any quarters. However, being able to recognise the voice of the one calling is very crucial for every child of God. May God give us hearing ears, seeing eyes and listening hearts, in Jesus’ name – Prov. 20:12; Matt. 11:15.

TEXT REVIEW: I SAMUEL 3:1-10

i. For God to call you, you should be a child of His. I Samuel 3:1a.

ii. Before God will call you, you must prepare your ear to hear and listen. I Sam. 3:4a. The Bible says, the Lord has opened my ear, he wakened my ear morning by morning”. Isaiah 50:4-5.

iii. Whenever God calls, He wants people to answer. I Sam 3:4b. “I was not rebellious” Isaiah 50:4.

iv. God values availability. “And he answered, am I”. I Sam. 3:4-5; “I was not rebellious, neither turn away back”. Isaiah 50:5c.

v. God loves those who run by the callings, “And he ran to Eli and said, here am I” I Sam. 3:5; “…. Write the vision, and make it plain that he may run that readeth it”. Habakkuk 2:2.

vi. God prefers those who keep the night watch. Samuel, though lay down, yet, he heard the Lord’s calling and responded-I Sam. 3:5-6. Night watch produced miracles from troubles. Matt. 14:25-27, Psalm 119:148.

vii. God prepares before He proclaims. He prepared Samuel by calling him three times. He did not proclaim until He was sure Samuel was fully ready. I Sam 3:8-9. viii. God speaks to holy instruments though he may be young. That means, God prefers holiness to corruption. God prefers innocence to godless adulthood. I Sam. 3:10
