“And Samuel grew, and the Lord was with him, and did let none of his words fall to the ground. And all Israel from Dan even to Beersheba knew that Samuel was established to be a prophet of the Lord” ―1 Samuel 3:19, 2019And Samuel grew, and the Lord was with him, and did let none of his words fall to the ground. 20And all Israel from Dan even to Beer-sheba knew that Samuel was established to be a prophet of the Lord. (1 Samuel 3:19‑20).
GOD Himself can put no greater honor upon one whom He has taken into relationship with Himself than to call and commission him to be His spokesman to other men. But with this privilege go great responsibilities. The life should correspond with the message. In Samuel we see consistency of behavior—a walk before God—which gave Israel to know he was Jehovah’s representative, to whom they could turn for helpful counsel and for spiritual enlightenment in a day when there was no open vision (3:1). That is, there were few who had understanding of the mind of the Lord.
I want my life to testify that He can save;
I want to help to make His crimson banner wave:
I want to tell the blessed story every day;
I want to be a light to others on their way.
I want to live as Jesus lived,
I want to love as Jesus loved,
I want to serve and honor Him and
please Him in everything;
I want my life to testify that
He’s my Lord and King.”
―J. P. Scholfield.
