1 Sam 12: 23
23 Moreover, as for me, far be it from me that I should sin against the Lord by ceasing to pray for you, and I will instruct you in the good and the right way.
The Prophet frequently entered God's presence and spent time in the Holy of Holies, interceding on behalf of others asking for God to intervene for thier lives, even for a nation. He was trained to do so, sleeping in the holy of holies before the ark of the covenant when young.
1 Sam 3:3
The lamp of God had not yet gone out, and Samuel was lying down in the temple of the Lord, where the ark of God was.
Even when the ark was taken by the Philistines, we do not see him in distress, unlike Eli who was worried for the ark when it was captured, he on the other hand was at peace. He knew that the ark could take care of itself. God will defend His own name and glory. nothing seemed to stop the man. he still continued to enter into the presence of the lord to pray and intercede for others as he had always done.
