1 Samuel 3:1-21 | Andrew Murch | 1 Samuel continues to put the reader’s head on a swivel. We look to Eli’s family and see that their end is coming, then turn and look at Samuel. This young boy is learning to hear the voice of the Lord. Something that Eli’s family had seemed to forget. We’ve seen this theme continually in Scripture, that when darkness seems to be winning, and all hope seems lost; God is finding a way – that somewhere, light is breaking forth and hope is flickering back to life. The characters in 1 Samuel will show us more than once that when someone fails to hold fast to God’s best for them, he can find another, and often a less likely candidate whom God commissions for His glory. With that, our text will more formally welcome a young Samuel to the scene, our newest flicker of hope, onto the stage of redemptive history in contrast to a family of corrupt priests and derelict fathers.
