NOTE:  This prayer has been recorded TWICE, first for listening and agreeing, then again for repeating. 

 

Many of the major figures in the Old Testament prayed prayers -- some longer, some shorter -- which have been recorded in the scriptures both as examples for us and for our use directly.

These powerful prayers bring both praise and supplication before the Lord, His holiness and His judgments against the wicked and the proud.

It is well worth the time to learn and to pray these prayers, to speak against the kingdom of darkness that the Lord Jesus Christ is seated, victorious, upon His sovereign throne.

 

Hannah's Song of Thanksgiving

1 Samuel 2:1-10  (NASB)

My heart exults in the Lord; My horn is exalted in the Lord,

My mouth speaks boldly against my enemies, Because I rejoice in Your salvation.

There is no one holy like the Lord, Indeed, there is no one besides You,

Nor is there any rock like our God.

Boast no more so very proudly, Do not let arrogance come out of your mouth;

For the Lord is a God of knowledge, And with Him actions are weighed.

The bows of the mighty are shattered, But the feeble gird on strength.

Those who were full hire themselves out for bread,

But those who were hungry cease to hunger.

Even the barren gives birth to seven, But she who has many children languishes.

The Lord kills and makes alive; He brings down to Sheol and raises up.

The Lord makes poor and rich; He brings low, He also exalts.

He raises the poor from the dust, He lifts the needy from the ash heap

To make them sit with nobles, And inherit a seat of honor;

For the pillars of the earth are the Lord's, And He set the world on them.

He keeps the feet of His godly ones, But the wicked ones are silenced in darkness;

For not by might shall a man prevail.

Those who contend with the Lord will be shattered;

Against them He will thunder in the heavens, The Lord will judge the ends of the earth;

And He will give strength to His king, And will exalt the horn of His anointed.
