1 SAMUEL
  
1 Samuel 1: 1-3

The Family of Elkanah
1 Now there was a certain man of Ramathaim Zophim, of the mountains of Ephraim, and his name was Elkanah the son of Jeroham, the son of Elihu the son of Tohu the son of Zuph, an Ephraimite. And he had two wives: the name of one was Hannah, and the name of the other Peninnah. Peninnah had children, but Hannah had no children. This man went up from his city yearly to worship and sacrifice to the Lord of hosts in Shiloh.

A certain man
Certain means to be convinced, sure, settled, not having any doubt about something
Lord, deepen my conviction of the divine life that I have received. 2 Tim 1:12.
Grant me revelation of the FULL GOSPEL.
Help me see Jesus drink the cup filled with my old man; crucified on the cross; and help me  know that I’m no longer a slave to sin. Rom 6:6; Exo 1:21; Exo 2:1-2.

The roots of Elkanah

Let my transition from the genealogy of the Adamic race into the divine race be clear and traceable. Gal 2:20.
Let my relocation from darkness into Christ (light) be apparent. Col 3:3.

And he had two wives
Lord, rid me of everything that wants to embrace and settle for a double life of Christ and mammon.
Uproot every old nature that seeks to gain the whole world with CHRIST as the icing on the cake.
Help me practically step into obedience of forsaking ALL so as to gain CHRIST.

Peninnah had children, but Hannah had no children
Grant me grace to de-clutter and completely uproot ALL the seed and children of the Adamic race in me.
Let the seed of Christ inside me grow to full maturity.

Went up from his city yearly to worship and sacrifice
Lord, deliver me from customs; traditions and religion that frustrate and/or limit the glory of CHRIST in me.
