This week's Bible Story is the story of Samuel.

We met Samuel last week. Hannah prayed to have a baby, she promised God if she had a son she would raise him to work with Eli and serve God always.

The Beginner's Bible

A Voice in the Night

1 Samuel 3

When Samuel was a little boy, Hannah brought him to live at the tabernacle. She had promised God that Samuel would serve Him all his life. The priest Eli would now take care of Samuel. He would teach Samuel about God. 

One night while Samuel was sleeping, he heard a voice say, "Samuel!" He ran to Eli and said, "Here I am."

But Eli said, "I did not call you." Then Samuel went back to bed.

Samuel hear a voice call his name two more times. Each time, Samuel ran to Eli. Finally, Eli told Samuel, " I think God is speaking to you. Next time say, "Yes, Lord, I am listening."

Then Samuel went back to be. "Samuel, Samuel!" the voice said again. This time, Samuel answered, "Yes, Lord, I am listening."

From that moment on, Samuel gave messages to God's people. He was a special prophet of God.
