1Samuel ; Chapter 3 Verse 1-4
The Lord Calls Samuel
The boy Samuel ministered before the Lord under Eli. In those days the word of the Lord was rare; there were not many visions.
2 One night Eli, whose eyes were becoming so weak that he could barely see, was lying down in his usual place. 3 The lamp of God had not yet gone out, and Samuel was lying down in the house of the Lord, where the ark of God was. 4 Then the Lord called Samuel.
سموئیل کو خدا کی پکا ر
3 لڑکا سموئیل نے عیلی کے ماتحت میں خداوند کی خدمت کی۔ ا ن دنوں اکثر خداوند نے براہ راست لوگو ں سے باتیں نہ کی۔ وہاں رو یا عام نہ تھی۔
2 ایک رات عیلی ، جسکی آنکھیں اتنی کمزور ہو گئیں تھیں کہ وہ بمشکل دیکھ سکتا تھا ، اپنے بستر پر پڑا تھا۔ 3 خداوند کا چراغ ابھی تک جل رہا تھا سموئیل خداوندکی مقدس عمارت میں اپنے بستر پر پڑا تھا۔ خدا کا مقدّس صندوق اس مقدس عمارت میں تھا۔ 4 تب خداوند نے سموئیل کو پکا را
My point of view about above verses
Eli said to his sons that if someone sin against another man – God may mediate for the offender but if anyone sins against Lord- who will intercede for them – but they didn't listen to their father as it was Lord’s will to put them to death
God wants us to give him importance more than anything in the world - worship Him, offer Him and all will go well with us - otherwise be prepared for punishment as God punished Eli and his sons and raised Samuel up for priesthood
Lord called Samuel - how wonderful is it if God calla us - as He called Samuel by name
May God give us wisdom to understand Him through His Word as He speaks with us through this - and apply it in our lives to have a blissful life on earth
