Dear Lord, I pray for wisdom for those who keep their vows to the Lord. In Jesus’ name, amen.
Hannah made a vow to the Lord. She asked the Lord for a child. She conceived and Samuel was born. After Samuel had been weaned, Hannah took him to the House of the Lord at Shiloh and made sacrifices. Then she brought him to Eli the priest.
1 Samuel 1:26-28 (ESV) tells what Hannah said when she presented Samuel to Eli.
“And she said, “Oh, my lord! As you live, my lord, I am the woman who was standing here in your presence, praying to the Lord. For this child I prayed, and the Lord has granted me my petition that I made to him. Therefore I have lent him to the Lord. As long as he lives, he is lent to the Lord.”
Hannah lent Samuel to the Lord.
As Samuel grew up, he would used by Lord as a prophet.
