Hello there and Happy Sabbath. 00:00:01.36\00:00:02.80 Come on in. We're about to meet with the King. 00:00:02.83\00:00:05.13 ¤ ¤ 00:00:52.28\00:00:53.62 Hello, welcome to our worship time. I'm so glad you came back. 00:00:53.65\00:00:56.42 Come on in and join us. Hello 00:00:56.45\00:00:57.92 Auntie Cecily. It's so good to see you again. 00:00:57.95\00:01:00.26 Ah, it's good to be here, Auntie Nat. I really enjoy just having 00:01:00.29\00:01:05.43 worship with the children each Sabbath. 00:01:05.46\00:01:07.06 Yes, I can't believe another week has already gone by and the 00:01:07.10\00:01:10.70 kids are already here in the lounge room with us to welcome 00:01:10.73\00:01:14.74 the King. How are you kids? Fine, good. Ah, that's good. 00:01:14.77\00:01:18.71 Now Auntie Cecily I know that you want to say hello to someone 00:01:18.77\00:01:20.41 who's been watching the program. 00:01:20.44\00:01:21.94 Yes, I want to say hello to Cara in Victoria, Australia. Hi Cara. 00:01:22.01\00:01:27.05 I'm so happy that so many of you are joining us in worshipping 00:01:27.08\00:01:32.02 the King. Can you remember who else we need to say hello to? 00:01:32.05\00:01:36.22 Yes, it's Teddy. How are you Teddy. I'm so glad that you're 00:01:36.26\00:01:40.16 on the couch with us again. Aunt Cecily, can you please say a 00:01:40.20\00:01:44.07 prayer for us to open our worship time? 00:01:44.10\00:01:45.87 Yes, I'd love to. Let's bow our heads. Dear Father in heaven, 00:01:45.93\00:01:49.87 we thank you so much for keeping us safe during the week. And we 00:01:49.90\00:01:53.51 thank you for this Sabbath and we just pray that you would be 00:01:53.54\00:01:57.11 with us now as we worship you. In Jesus' name, Amen. 00:01:57.15\00:02:00.75 Amen. Do you know we have blessings to share with other 00:02:00.78\00:02:04.35 people on the Sabbath. It's a really good thing to do. And 00:02:06.55\00:02:12.43 Caleigh I'm going to get you to read the blessing that we can do 00:02:12.46\00:02:15.26 Take a meal around for someone who's unable to prepare food 00:02:15.30\00:02:22.70 for Sabbath. 00:02:22.74\00:02:24.07 Wow. That is such a great idea, especially for an older person 00:02:24.11\00:02:27.24 or someone who's had a difficult week and they can't 00:02:27.28\00:02:29.74 prepare food for the Sabbath. That would be great wouldn't it? 00:02:29.78\00:02:33.35 Do you sometimes help mom or dad cook a meal to take to someone 00:02:33.38\00:02:36.82 else? Can you think of a meal that you would like to prepare 00:02:36.85\00:02:40.26 with your mom to take to someone? Salad. Well I think 00:02:40.29\00:02:43.96 that would be a great blessing to someone, especially because 00:02:43.99\00:02:46.73 of circumstances they couldn't prepare a meal for the Sabbath. 00:02:46.76\00:02:50.00 I think that would be a terrific blessing. Aunt Cecily you have 00:02:50.03\00:02:52.80 a blessing to share with us as well. Can you please share that 00:02:52.83\00:02:55.54 with us? 00:02:55.57\00:02:56.91 Yes. Do you remember our talk last Sabbath, we discovered that 00:02:56.94\00:03:01.68 if we love Jesus we'll not be afraid of His second coming. 00:03:01.74\00:03:05.85 Later on we'll study about Samuel and how God spoke to him 00:03:05.88\00:03:10.29 when he was a young boy. This was to prepare him for a great 00:03:10.32\00:03:16.09 work that God wanted to do through him. When Jesus returns 00:03:16.12\00:03:20.43 He'll speak with a loud voice. You can read about that in 00:03:20.46\00:03:24.70 1 Thessalonians 4:16-18. It says the Lord Himself will descend 00:03:24.73\00:03:30.21 from heaven with a shout and with the voice of an archangel 00:03:30.24\00:03:35.18 with the trumpet of God and the dead in Christ will rise first. 00:03:35.21\00:03:40.12 Then we who are alive and remain shall be caught up 00:03:40.15\00:03:43.28 together with them in the clouds to meet the Lord in the air and 00:03:43.35\00:03:48.06 thus we shall always be with the Lord. Therefore, comfort one 00:03:48.09\00:03:53.36 another with these words. Isn't that an amazing promise. So our 00:03:53.40\00:03:58.67 family and friends who died believing in Jesus will be 00:03:58.70\00:04:02.60 raised from the dead at Jesus' second coming and those of us 00:04:02.64\00:04:07.08 who are alive at Jesus' second coming will be taken to meet the 00:04:07.11\00:04:11.51 Lord in the air and He will take us back to heaven. Let's 00:04:11.55\00:04:15.18 comfort one another with these words just as the verse tells 00:04:15.22\00:04:18.82 us to and believe in God's promises. 00:04:18.85\00:04:21.96 Oh Amen Auntie Cecily. That message gives us so much hope 00:04:21.99\00:04:27.33 and comfort. What do you think? Yes. I think it does. Look who's 00:04:27.40\00:04:31.93 arrived. Thanks Pastor Rick for joining us again in our worship 00:04:31.97\00:04:36.47 Oh, glad to. And I heard or 00:04:36.50\00:04:39.74 understand that you're studying 00:04:39.77\00:04:42.94 Samuel. Is that right? I've a song about Samuel. This is 00:04:42.98\00:04:46.92 called Samuel. 00:04:46.95\00:04:48.28 Pastor Rick, can we sing A Little Talk With Jesus? 00:05:43.94\00:05:46.91 Ah, that's a great choice Caleb. Let's sing it together, and 00:05:46.94\00:05:50.68 we'll sing it through twice. 00:05:50.71\00:05:52.05 And again. 00:06:10.50\00:06:11.83 Pastor Rick can we please sing the Sanctuary Song. 00:06:33.15\00:06:40.80 That's a lovely song, the Sanctuary Song. 00:06:40.83\00:06:42.16 We'll sing it again. 00:07:26.44\00:07:27.78 Thanks Pastor Rick. It's always so good to praise God in song. 00:08:06.98\00:08:10.59 Now guess what? Dr. John is back with some more wonderful 00:08:10.62\00:08:15.99 stories for us. We learn so much from his stories, don't we? Yeah 00:08:16.02\00:08:20.16 Let's go and join him in his study. 00:08:20.20\00:08:22.83 Hello boys and girls. I'm Dr. John and welcome to story time 00:08:22.86\00:08:27.60 and welcome to boys and girls wherever you are. I want to tell 00:08:27.64\00:08:32.47 you the story of little Lynn Barnhart. He was born almost 96 00:08:32.51\00:08:37.28 years ago in New Zealand. He had some sadness. He lost his mommy. 00:08:37.31\00:08:42.15 He had to live an orphanage, but his daddy got him back and 00:08:42.18\00:08:45.82 trained him up. He loved Jesus. He didn't know what he wanted 00:08:45.85\00:08:50.36 to do. He was very smart. But the war came and he was sent way 00:08:50.43\00:08:55.23 up to New Guinea. He didn't want to shoot people so he became an 00:08:55.26\00:09:00.04 army medic, looking after wounded soldiers. And after the 00:09:00.07\00:09:04.74 war he thought, I like New Guinea. I want to live here and 00:09:04.77\00:09:09.38 he opened a leper hospital. And he did so much walking and when 00:09:09.41\00:09:14.82 you go to New Guinea you're either going up or you're going 00:09:14.85\00:09:19.65 down. You're going up or down. There are 800 mountain chains. 00:09:19.69\00:09:25.29 And as he was walking sometimes he'd see bzzzz. There we go an 00:09:25.33\00:09:31.63 airplane he said. I want an airplane. He loved to fly and he 00:09:31.67\00:09:37.97 begged the church leaders, Please, get me an airplane. 00:09:38.01\00:09:41.68 And finally he got his airplane. It was the happiest day in 00:09:41.71\00:09:49.05 Pastor Barnhart's life. A brand new airplane! A Cessna. And you 00:09:49.08\00:09:56.39 know, he was so happy. I have flown with him many times 00:09:56.42\00:10:03.03 sitting in that seat. He did many hours, but one day he was 00:10:03.06\00:10:09.24 up in the highlands and he was with the natives and before he 00:10:09.27\00:10:14.94 could take off again he had to get the airplane propeller... 00:10:14.98\00:10:21.32 Now airplane propellers are very important, but don't walk into 00:10:21.38\00:10:25.62 them. He had to turn it around so it would be ready to start 00:10:25.65\00:10:30.39 when he pressed the button. And as he was turning it, all of a 00:10:30.43\00:10:35.16 sudden it coughed and the propeller spun and got him in 00:10:35.20\00:10:39.97 the leg and there was only that much skin left holding his leg 00:10:40.00\00:10:46.41 on. The doctor was going to take it off. This here is the 00:10:46.44\00:10:52.28 propeller that chopped Pastor Barnhart in the leg. They were 00:10:52.31\00:10:55.88 going to take his leg off and he said please don't take my leg 00:10:55.95\00:11:00.62 off. I'll never be able to fly again. I'll never be able to 00:11:00.66\00:11:05.96 walk in New Guinea. And they had a very good doctor in New 00:11:05.99\00:11:10.47 Guinea and they carefully got the blood vessels back but his 00:11:10.50\00:11:14.70 leg was in a terrible state and they few him down to Sydney and 00:11:14.74\00:11:20.48 he got a very clever orthopedic bone doctor who put his leg back 00:11:20.51\00:11:25.65 together. And I knew that doctor very well because it was my 00:11:25.71\00:11:31.92 father, Dr. Bryan Hammond. And Dr. Hammond fixed his leg and he 00:11:31.95\00:11:38.16 was able to walk again. He had to use a stick and this was 00:11:38.19\00:11:44.73 Pastor Barnhart's stick. It has a crocodile chasing a dog. And 00:11:44.77\00:11:50.84 when he learned to walk properly again, he came to my father and 00:11:50.91\00:11:56.95 said, I want to give you a present because I'm not going 00:11:56.98\00:12:00.98 to use this stick anymore. I'm going to go back to New Guinea 00:12:01.05\00:12:06.45 and to fly my beloved plane. And you know, he did. He flew for 00:12:06.49\00:12:11.69 many, many years. He had so much experience, even though he 00:12:11.73\00:12:16.93 was only a nurse, he did operations on people who were 00:12:16.97\00:12:22.67 speared and cut and they fell down cliffs, he fixed broken 00:12:22.70\00:12:28.34 bones. He was the most marvelous doctor who was ever only a nurse 00:12:28.38\00:12:34.48 and a pilot. You know, he came back here and he flew planes for 00:12:34.55\00:12:40.66 many years until he was over 90. He had a little plane, an 00:12:40.69\00:12:46.49 ultralight and my son now owns that plane and he's fixing it up 00:12:46.56\00:12:50.87 and he can fly it around. Pastor Barnhart was the greatest of our 00:12:50.93\00:12:55.40 mission pilots and we had many wonderful pilots. He and Pastor 00:12:55.44\00:13:00.24 Winch used to fly the plane that had this propeller which is no 00:13:00.28\00:13:05.08 used. Pastor Barnhart is now sleeping in Jesus and one day 00:13:05.11\00:13:10.62 he will fly again. He's not going to need a propeller, he's 00:13:10.65\00:13:16.12 not going to need wings. He will fly with the angels and we look 00:13:16.16\00:13:20.86 forward to seeing Pastor Barnhart in the kingdom of 00:13:20.90\00:13:24.60 heaven. 00:13:24.63\00:13:25.97 Welcome back boys and girls. If you haven't got your Bibles 00:13:26.00\00:13:29.00 ready yet, go get them now so you can follow along with us. 00:13:29.04\00:13:31.51 Kate, can you please say a prayer for us to open our Bible 00:13:31.54\00:13:33.98 study. 00:13:34.01\00:13:35.84 Dear Father, thank you for the many blessings you provide for 00:13:35.91\00:13:40.78 us. We thank you for our Bibles and ask you to help us to 00:13:40.82\00:13:44.72 understand what we read. Please be with the children who are 00:13:44.75\00:13:48.66 watching at home. In Jesus' name Amen. 00:13:48.69\00:13:51.13 Amen. Thanks Kate. Now Bethany we studied about two people last 00:13:51.16\00:13:56.33 Sabbath. Who were they? 00:13:56.36\00:13:58.00 Ruth and Naomi. 00:13:58.03\00:13:59.37 And what happened? 00:13:59.40\00:14:00.74 Ruth wanted to follow Naomi so Ruth could follow her God. 00:14:00.77\00:14:04.11 That was a good story wasn't it? Today, boys and girls, we're 00:14:04.14\00:14:08.34 going to a new book in the Bible and that is 1 Samuel. Now Anna, 00:14:08.38\00:14:12.55 you're going to read our first reading. We're going to read 00:14:12.58\00:14:14.15 our first reading. We're going to read about a man named 00:14:14.18\00:14:15.72 Elkanah. Can you read 1 Samuel 1:2-5. 00:14:15.75\00:14:22.19 And he had two wives; the name of one was Hannah and the name 00:14:22.22\00:14:25.99 of the other Peninnah. Peninnah had children but Hannah had no 00:14:26.03\00:14:30.03 children. This man went up from his city yearly to worship and 00:14:30.07\00:14:34.44 sacrifice to the Lord of Hosts in Shiloh. Also the two sons of 00:14:34.50\00:14:38.84 Eli, Hophni and Phinehas, priests of the Lord were there. 00:14:38.87\00:14:44.08 And whenever the time came for Elkanah to make an offering he 00:14:44.11\00:14:49.62 would give portions to Peninnah his wife and to all her sons and 00:14:49.65\00:14:55.12 daughters, but to Hannah he would give a double portion for 00:14:55.16\00:14:58.39 he loved Hannah although the Lord had closed her womb. 00:14:58.43\00:15:02.10 Do you think having more than one wife is a good idea. No. 00:15:02.13\00:15:05.53 No. We have studied many times how much stress that causes on 00:15:05.57\00:15:08.90 a family. When the family visited the sanctuary, even 00:15:08.94\00:15:11.41 though Hannah had no children, Elkanah would give her a double 00:15:11.47\00:15:15.38 portion of the offering because he loved her so much. But let's 00:15:15.41\00:15:19.38 see what Peninnah's reaction is. Matthew can you please read 00:15:19.41\00:15:23.32 1 Samuel 1:6-7. 00:15:23.35\00:15:25.49 And her rival also provoked her severely to make her miserable 00:15:25.52\00:15:30.43 because the Lord had closed her womb. So it was, year by year 00:15:30.46\00:15:35.10 when she went up to the house of the Lord that she provoked 00:15:35.13\00:15:39.77 her; therefore, she wept and did not eat. 00:15:39.80\00:15:42.50 Mmm. So Peninnah gave her a really hard time and harassed 00:15:42.54\00:15:46.81 her so much about not having children the Bible tells us that 00:15:46.84\00:15:50.68 Hannah was miserable. Do you think that's a nice thing to do? 00:15:50.75\00:15:54.62 No. I don't think it is. So Hannah went to the door of the 00:15:54.65\00:15:59.15 sanctuary and prayed and Kate can you point to the gate of the 00:15:59.19\00:16:03.66 sanctuary of the tabernacle there. Yeah, that's probably 00:16:03.69\00:16:06.70 where she went to to pray. Okay I think that's a very good place 00:16:06.73\00:16:10.40 to go. It's always good to pray to God isn't it. Kate, can you 00:16:10.43\00:16:14.07 please read 1 Samuel 1:11. 00:16:14.10\00:16:17.81 Then she made a vow and said, O Lord of hosts, if You will 00:16:17.84\00:16:23.01 indeed look on the affliction of your maid servant and remember 00:16:23.04\00:16:27.38 me and not forget your maid servant but will give your maid 00:16:27.42\00:16:31.49 a man child, then I will give him to the Lord all the days of 00:16:31.52\00:16:35.56 his life and no razor shall come upon his head. 00:16:35.59\00:16:38.86 So Hannah is promising that she will give her first child 00:16:38.89\00:16:42.56 back to the Lord if only the Lord would allow her to have 00:16:42.60\00:16:46.20 a child. Now I just read something interesting that no 00:16:46.23\00:16:49.77 razor shall come upon his head meaning that she was going to 00:16:49.80\00:16:53.38 dedicate her child to the Lord's service as a Nazarite. Now first 00:16:53.41\00:16:57.71 Eli comes across Hannah praying so fervently that he thinks that 00:16:57.75\00:17:02.05 she's drunk and he calls her on it. Let's see what Hannah's 00:17:02.08\00:17:07.92 response is. Caleb can you please read 1 Samuel 1:15, 17. 00:17:07.99\00:17:12.86 But Hannah answered and said No, my lord, I am a woman of 00:17:12.89\00:17:17.80 sorrowful spirit. I have drunk neither wine nor intoxicating 00:17:17.83\00:17:23.10 drink but have poured out my soul before the Lord. Then Eli 00:17:23.14\00:17:27.54 answered and said, Go in peace and the God of Israel grant you 00:17:27.58\00:17:31.95 the petition which you have asked of Him. 00:17:31.98\00:17:33.72 Okay, so Eli, the head priest, sent Hannah home with a 00:17:33.75\00:17:38.79 blessing and verse 18 tells us Hannah was no longer sad. 00:17:38.82\00:17:43.22 I think when we have great burdens like Hannah's, going to 00:17:43.26\00:17:47.26 God in prayer is a positive thing to do. Let's look at our 00:17:47.30\00:17:51.23 memory verse. We're going to go to James 5:13 and boys and girls 00:17:51.27\00:17:55.50 at home, James is in the New Testament. We're going to read 00:17:55.54\00:18:01.04 that together. So where your bookmarks are James 5:13. 00:18:01.08\00:18:06.58 Let's read that. 00:18:06.61\00:18:07.95 Is anyone among you suffering, let him pray. That is a very 00:18:07.98\00:18:14.52 good promise for us to remember. So let's see what happens next. 00:18:14.56\00:18:21.00 J J can you go back to 1 Samuel and read us 1 Samuel 1:20. 00:18:21.03\00:18:27.94 So it came to pass in the process of time that Hannah 00:18:27.97\00:18:36.54 conceived and bore a son and called his name Samuel saying 00:18:36.58\00:18:39.41 because I have asked for him from the Lord. 00:18:39.45\00:18:42.98 Wow. So did God answer her prayer? Yes. Yes He did. Now 00:18:43.02\00:18:46.89 when Samuel was a small child, Hannah took him up to the 00:18:46.92\00:18:50.79 sanctuary on a yearly visit. Let's see what she says to 00:18:50.83\00:18:54.63 priest Eli. Aunt Cecily you're going to read 1 Samuel 1:26-28. 00:18:54.66\00:19:00.60 And she said, O my lord, as your soul lives my lord, I am the 00:19:00.64\00:19:05.81 woman who stood by you here praying to the Lord. For this 00:19:05.84\00:19:10.51 child I prayed and the Lord has granted me my petition which 00:19:10.55\00:19:15.98 I asked of Him. Therefore, I also have lent him to the Lord 00:19:16.02\00:19:20.86 as long as he lives he shall be lent to the Lord. So they 00:19:20.89\00:19:25.69 worshipped the Lord there. 00:19:25.73\00:19:28.66 Wow. So Hannah had such great faith to leave her child at the 00:19:28.70\00:19:33.70 sanctuary with Priest Eli. Let's see what happens next. 00:19:33.74\00:19:38.37 Something happens in the sanctuary. Anna, can you 00:19:38.41\00:19:42.81 Now the sons of Eli were corrupt They did not know the Lord. 00:19:42.84\00:19:48.25 So we know from 1 Samuel 1:3 that Eli's sons' names were 00:19:48.28\00:19:53.29 Hophni and Phinehas. They were doing unholy things in a holy 00:19:53.32\00:19:58.13 place. Priest Eli their father had neglected to reprimand his 00:19:58.16\00:20:02.76 sons and he let their behavior continue. Finally the children 00:20:02.80\00:20:08.10 of Israel complained so much to Eli about his sons that he 00:20:08.14\00:20:13.41 goes to his sons. Eli pleads but no avail, they still sin before 00:20:13.44\00:20:17.41 the Lord. In verse 27 the Bible tells us that a man of God came 00:20:17.45\00:20:21.02 to Eli to warn him of his sons' behavior, but again it all falls 00:20:21.05\00:20:24.59 on deaf ears. Okay, Bethany let's see what's happening now. 00:20:24.62\00:20:29.22 1 Samuel 2:18-21. 00:20:29.26\00:20:33.70 But Samuel ministered before the Lord even as a child wearing a 00:20:33.73\00:20:37.47 linen ephod. Moreover his mother used to make him a little robe 00:20:37.50\00:20:41.50 and bring it to him year by year when she came with her husband 00:20:41.54\00:20:45.41 to offer the yearly sacrifice. And Eli would bless Elkanah and 00:20:45.44\00:20:49.54 his wife and say, The Lord give you descendants from this woman 00:20:49.58\00:20:53.35 for the loan that was given to the Lord. Then they would go 00:20:53.42\00:20:57.02 to their own home and the Lord visited Hannah so that she 00:20:57.05\00:21:00.62 conceived and bore three sons and two daughters. Meanwhile the 00:21:00.66\00:21:05.06 child Samuel grew before the Lord. 00:21:05.09\00:21:07.56 Thanks Bethany. So Hannah visited her son once a year 00:21:07.60\00:21:10.77 She didn't forget about him even though she took him to the 00:21:10.80\00:21:14.10 sanctuary and she brought a robe which she had made for him. 00:21:14.14\00:21:17.41 And Priest Eli continued to bless Elkanah and Hannah and how 00:21:17.44\00:21:21.14 many more children did Hannah have. Five. She had five more 00:21:21.18\00:21:24.88 children. Kate can you please read 1 Samuel 2:26. 00:21:24.91\00:21:31.09 And the child Samuel grew in stature and in favor both with 00:21:31.12\00:21:39.13 the Lord and men. 00:21:39.16\00:21:40.50 Thanks Kate. Let's look at our Torch Light now because Mrs. 00:21:40.53\00:21:43.40 White's writings shine something on that verse for us. Caleb can 00:21:43.47\00:21:47.37 you please read that for us. 00:21:47.40\00:21:51.44 Though Samuel's youth was passed 00:21:51.47\00:21:55.44 at the tabernacle devoted to the worship of God, he was not free 00:21:55.51\00:22:03.22 from evil influences or sinful example. The sons of Eli feared 00:22:03.25\00:22:07.12 not God, nor honored their father; but Samuel did not seek 00:22:07.16\00:22:11.03 their company nor follow their evil ways. It was his constant 00:22:11.06\00:22:14.93 endeavor to become what God would have him. This is the 00:22:14.96\00:22:18.60 privilege of every youth. God is pleased when even little 00:22:18.63\00:22:22.27 children given themselves to His service. 00:22:22.30\00:22:24.54 Wow. Thanks Caleb, that was beautifully read. Isn't that a 00:22:24.57\00:22:28.44 lovely promise for us. God can use even children for his 00:22:28.48\00:22:32.28 service. So God blessed Samuel for choosing to follow Him. Now 00:22:32.31\00:22:36.55 because of the sin of Eli's family and the Israelites 00:22:36.58\00:22:41.82 following the Gods of the Canaanites, God was not 00:22:41.86\00:22:44.43 communicating or revealing Himself to His people. But 00:22:44.46\00:22:46.93 something very special happened because of Samuel's faithfulness 00:22:46.96\00:22:51.47 Let's read what happened one night when Samuel and Eli had 00:22:51.50\00:22:54.87 gone to bed. J J you're going to read that for us in 00:22:54.90\00:22:57.97 1 Samuel 3:4-7. 00:22:58.01\00:23:00.44 ...that the Lord called Samuel and he answered, Here I am. 00:23:00.48\00:23:07.45 So he ran to Eli and said, Here I am for you called me and he 00:23:07.48\00:23:16.22 said I did not call. Lie down again, and he went and lay down. 00:23:16.26\00:23:21.70 Then the Lord called yet again, Samuel. So Samuel arose and 00:23:21.76\00:23:27.54 went to Eli and said, Here I am for you called me. He answered 00:23:27.57\00:23:33.07 I didn't not call, my son. Lie down again. Now Samuel did not 00:23:33.14\00:23:40.55 yet know the Lord nor was the word of the Lord yet revealed 00:23:40.58\00:23:47.99 to him. 00:23:48.02\00:23:49.36 Thanks J J. Aunt Cecily can you please read 1 Samuel 3:8-10. 00:23:49.39\00:23:54.23 And the Lord called Samuel again the third time, so he arose and 00:23:54.26\00:23:59.67 went to Eli and said, Here I am for you did call me. Then Eli 00:23:59.70\00:24:04.71 perceived that the Lord had called the boy. Therefore, Eli 00:24:04.77\00:24:09.71 said to Samuel, Go lie down and it shall be if He calls you that 00:24:09.74\00:24:16.38 you must say, Speak Lord, for your servant hears. So Samuel 00:24:16.42\00:24:20.96 went and lay down in his place. Now the Lord came and stood 00:24:20.99\00:24:27.03 and called as at other times, Samuel, Samuel and Samuel 00:24:27.06\00:24:33.03 answered, Speak for your servant hears. 00:24:33.10\00:24:35.07 Wow. So God decides to speak to Samuel. He was only a child. 00:24:35.10\00:24:39.67 What an amazing honor that was. We are told that Samuel was only 00:24:39.74\00:24:44.28 about 12 years old when this happened. So God was preparing 00:24:44.31\00:24:48.48 and going to use Samuel in a very special way to do his work. 00:24:48.52\00:24:51.92 Thank you boys and girls for reading along with us.

Come back next week and 00:25:58.49\00:26:01.66 we'll study about that together. Aunt Cecily, shall we go over 00:26:01.69\00:26:04.83 the memory verse we learnt in our Bible study today. 00:26:04.89\00:26:07.53 Yes, this is an easy one to remember. Say it with me 00:26:07.60\00:26:10.20 together boys and girls. 00:26:10.27\00:26:13.44 James 5:13. Is anyone among you suffering. Let Him pray. 00:26:13.47\00:26:19.51 J J we've come to the end of another worship time. What 00:26:19.54\00:26:25.55 did you learn from our worship today? 00:26:25.58\00:26:28.82 That Samuel had faith in God. 00:26:28.88\00:26:31.95 Yes, he certainly was faithful even though there was a lot of 00:26:31.99\00:26:34.82 evil around him. And he's a good example of what we should be 00:26:34.86\00:26:38.53 like today and that we should stay faithful, no matter what. 00:26:38.56\00:26:41.86 Yes, that's a good example isn't it? Auntie Cecily do you think 00:26:41.90\00:26:44.63 we're about ready to sing our blessing song to the children 00:26:44.67\00:26:47.37 at home? 00:26:47.40\00:26:48.74 Yes it's sad, but it's a lovely way to say good bye to everybody 00:26:48.77\00:26:55.98 So let's turn around and do that 00:26:56.01\00:26:57.61 ¤May God bless you and keep you and fill your heart with love¤ 00:26:57.65\00:27:12.59 ¤May God guide and protect you and watch you from above¤ 00:27:12.63\00:27:22.27 ¤As Sabbath after Sabbath we greet the day of rest¤ 00:27:22.30\00:27:32.51 ¤The day the King of glory has sanctified and blessed¤ 00:27:32.55\00:27:42.72 ¤Good bye my friends till we meet again¤ 00:27:42.76\00:27:47.53 ¤For another day with the King¤ 00:27:47.56\00:27:51.77 Good bye.
