Faith in action

Whenever talked about, Samson is mostly known for his Superman strength (Jud.14:6), his locked hair, and his infamous relationship with Delilah (Jud.16). Very rarely do you hear of Samson’s faith. Despite the fact Samson was dedicated to God before birth (Jud. 13:5-7), he was a flawed and sinful man. His actions led him to do the opposite of what God wanted. He was spiritually disobedient, yet the Spirit of God stayed with him until his hair was cut. Samson’s hair symbolizes his connection with God. Once severed, it was lost (Jud.16:20-21). Many of us are like Samson. You are a dedication to God. He has a purpose for your life. Despite your sins, God still has love for you just as he did for Samson. The new growth for Samson signifies new relationship rebuilding of faith in God. No matter where you are in life you can go back to God. Faith led Samson to pray. Through faith Samson did his greatest deed for God (Jud. 16:28-30).
