In the Bible, some mothers come out as role models of faith, one of whom is Hannah. Let us learn from the prayers of Hannah who overcame her affliction by
prayers.
第１ポイント.The first is to pray, trusting in the LORD solely, and pouring out our souls to Him. Hannah could have appealed to her husband or Peninnah, but she chose to pray, pouring out her soul to the LORD, because she believed it was He that would resolve her problem. Though it is very important to consult with others, the most essential is to pray to the LORD, pouring out our souls.
The second is to get a conviction in prayers. At the point when she ended up with her prayer, her problem was not solved yet, but she herself was changed and went back to the place of her problem. That was because she got a conviction over the protection and guidance from the LORD in her prayers. It is vital also for us to get a conviction from Him in our prayers.
The third is to walk faithfully to the LORD after we pray. After Hannah was given a son Samuel by the LORD, she certainly dedicated her son to Him. She fulfilled her vow. Our steps after the prayer also do matter. Let us fulfill our vows!
The LORD hears our prayers. We are strongly recommended to pray, relying on the LORD, and pouring out our souls to Him. Do not give up! In light of whole church, let us pray together in full accord!

<The Verse of the Bible>
Do not regard your servant as a worthless woman, for all along I have been speaking out of my great anxiety and vexation.”
