(一) 撒母耳事奉最可貴之處:神的肯定與祝福
─ 耶和華與他同在,使他所說的話一句都不落空(3:19)
─ So Samuel grew, and the LORD was with him and let none of
his words fall to the ground.(3:19)

對神撒母耳說話的記載
:
─ God spoke and worked through Samuel-
the whole book is filled with narrations of God speaking to Samuel:
耶和華呼喚撒母耳
耶和華又呼喚撒母耳 (3:4, 6),
the LORD called Samuel.
Then the LORD called yet again,
Samuel! (3:4, 6)
耶和華對撒母耳說
(3:11, 8:7, 22, 16:1,
7), 耶和華的話臨到撒母耳說
(15:10)
the LORD said to Samuel
(3:11, 8:7, 22, 16:1, 7), Now the
word of the LORD came to Samuel, saying
(15:10),
掃羅未到的前一日、耶和華已經指示撒母耳說
(9:15)
Now the LORD had told Samuel in his ear the day before Saul
came, saying
(9:15)
耶和華又在示羅顯現、因為耶和華將自己的話默示撒母耳、撒母耳就把這話傳遍
以色列地 (3:21)
Then the
LORD appeared again in

II.
The most important mission of Samuels ministry: leading the people to turn
back to God wholeheartedly, and serve Him only
─ 至於我,斷不停止為你們禱告,以致得罪耶和華。我必以善道正路指教你
們。(12:23)
─
Moreover,
as for me, far be it from me that I should sin against the LORD in ceasing to
pray for you; but I will teach you the good and the right way. (12:23)
v
撒母耳是聖經中最好的禱告榜樣之一
v
Samuel is one of the best biblical examples on
praying
在他的祭司中有摩西和亞倫、在求告他名的人中有撒母耳、他們求告耶和
華、他就應允他們 (詩99:6)
Moses and Aaron
were among His priests, And Samuel was among those who called upon His name;
They called upon the LORD, and He answered them. (Psalms 99:6)
耶和華對我說、雖有摩西和撒母耳站在我面前代求、我的心也不顧惜這百
姓
(耶 15:1)
Then the LORD
said to me, Even if Moses and Samuel stood before Me, My mind would
not be favorable toward this people. Cast them out of My sight, and let them go forth. (Jeremiah 15:1)
(三) 撒母耳事奉最美好的果效

years in all
and all the
people of Israel mourned and
sought after the LORD.
(7:2-4,
