Hannah rejoices that God, not luck or human effort alone, ultimately controls our financial status and social standing. As Charles Spurgeon notes, Hannah had a 'clear view of the sovereignty of God,' seeing His hand overruling all mortal things. This truth provides a foundation for trusting God in every circumstance.
