First Presbyterian Church of LaGrange Texas

1 Samuel 2:1-10 is Hannah's prayer of praise and thanksgiving after God answered her prayer for a son, Samuel. Her song, a poetic expression of her profound joy and faith, proclaims God's unmatched holiness, power, and sovereignty over life and status. It teaches that God lifts the humble and brings down the proud, a pattern of reversal of fortunes that serves as a warning to the arrogant and a message of hope for the faithful.
