In the book of 1 Samuel, chapter 3, the Lord spoke to Samuel.
But Samuel did not know it was the Lord, for he had never spoken to Him before.
Three times, Samuel woke up to the Lord speaking to him, and he ran off to Eli to see what he wanted. By the third time, Eli knew it was the Lord speaking to Samuel, so he told him that it was the Lord.
The fourth time God spoke to Samuel, he told Him that his servant is listening.
God told Samuel the threats he was going to take out on Eli's clan. The next morning, Samuel told Eli what the Lord had told him.
Word spread quickly about Samuel and considered him a prophet.
