Hanna's main adversary was barrenness which gave rise to shame/reproach, mockery, bitterness, anger & lack of joy/heaviness. When God turned back her captivity and gave her a Samuel, she sang a song of thanksgiving to The LORD her deliverer. It's time for us to sing our song of thanksgiving as we remember how God delivered us this year from that barrenness, shame, reproach, mockery, lack, scarcity, destruction, sickness, depression, bondage etc.
1 Samuel
2:1 Then Hannah prayed and said: "My heart rejoices in the Lord; in the
Lord my horn is lifted high. My mouth boasts over my enemies, for I delight in
your deliverance. 2 "There is no one holy like the Lord; there is no one
besides you; there is no Rock like our God. 3 "Do not keep talking so
proudly or let your mouth speak such arrogance, for the Lord is a God who
knows, and by him deeds are weighed. 4 "The bows of the warriors are
broken, but those who stumbled are armed with strength. 5 Those who were full
hire themselves out for food, but those who were hungry are hungry no more. She
who was barren has borne seven children, but she who has had many sons pines
away. 6 "The Lord brings death and makes alive; he brings down to the
grave and raises up. 7 The Lord sends poverty and wealth; he humbles and he
exalts. 8 He raises the poor from the dust and lifts the needy from the ash
heap; he seats them with princes and has them inherit a throne of honor.
"For the foundations of the earth are the Lord's; on them he has set the
world. 9 He will guard the feet of his faithful servants, but the wicked will
be silenced in the place of darkness. "It is not by strength that one
prevails; 10 those who oppose the Lord will be broken. The Most High will
thunder from heaven; the Lord will judge the ends of the earth. "He will
give strength to his king and exalt the horn of his anointed."
