    Samson lost all by compromising his committment to God. Where is his hope? Where is OUR hope?

    And Samson did not know that the LORD had left him. But the Philistines took him, put out his eyes, and brought him down to Gaza. There they bound him with chains of brass, and set him to grinding in the prison house. (Judges 16:20-21) Recall the story of Samson’s downfall. Samson was the original ...read more

    based on 94 ratings
     | 9,520 views

    Samson was on the road to ruin because he fraternized with the enemy, wasted his strength and was deluded by pride.

    The story of Samson begins much like the story of the other judges of Israel. The nation was in misery because of the domination of a rival country that was oppressing them. That nation was the Philistine nation. (Interestingly, the word Philistine is where we get our word “Palestinian,” so this ...read more

    Sin has a way of deceiving us, first by blinding us to its dangers, then by binding us in its power, and finally by making us a slave to its impulses.

     | 38,290 views

    When Samson’s hair was cut he lost his power, the Spirit of God left him. However when his hair grew back and he returned to God his power came back. If we fail God and return our spiritual power returns.
