anna – the widow
Anna lived in the temple Mary and Joseph brought Jesus to for purification rights after birth. Simeon recognized the baby for who he was and declared that he would bring salvation to Israel. Anna was only married seven years before her husband died and left her a widow. She knew sorrow but she also sought God. She fasted, prayed, and was relentlessly faithful, and at 84 years she laid eyes on the Prince of Peace and went out to tell anyone who would listen that redemption had come. Leadership lesson: You are never too old to work for the Lord.
HANNAH – WOMEN OF SUCCESS BY PRAYER

The story of Hannah offers many important lessons.
- The story of Hannah offers many important lessons.
- Second, she praised and thanked God when He did not answer her prayer. Next, she kept her commitment to the Lord, even though it must have been difficult.
- Finally, God blessed Hannah beyond what she had asked for. In the end, Hannah was not only the mother of Samuel but of three other sons and two daughters.
The story of Hannah is also an inspiration and encouragement to women struggling with infertility or for some reason unable to have children. Hanna’s attitude of prayer and dependence on the Lord is a good example for us today.
