Description
Prophet Samuel was a child that was got by the heartfelt prayer of his mother; his mother had been barren. In her prayer, she herself had given Samuel back to God even before his conception. She fulfilled her promise of giving God the child. Samuel rose up to become a great prophet and judge of Israel. Samuel was the last judge of Israel, after whom they had kings. And Samuel saw both the good side and bad side of the ministry. When the people obeyed God under his ministry, he was happy and excited. When King Saul despised and disobeyed the Word and Commandment of God, and hence lost the kingdom of Israel, it was a moment of grief for Samuel. In fact, Samuel mourned for Saul.
