Strength unto his king. For years Hannah had been seeing through a glass, darkly (1 Cor. 13:12), but now by prophetic eye she tells of her faith in Christ’s final and complete triumph. As God has exalted her “horn,” so will He exalt the “horn” of His Anointed (see Phil. 2:9-11). May it not be that many living in this last generation will permit the Lord so to lift them up from the midst of their evil environment that, like Hannah, they will sing a song of praise and thanksgiving to Him on the sea of glass (Rev. 14:3)?
