    This sermon is to remind us that every person that we encounter in life is not always our firend. And by the way...smiling faces do tell lies.

    Introduction: We as Christians have to be ever so careful who we associate ourselves with. We have to be careful who we allow to be in our space. We even have to be careful who we allow in our homes. My father would always say, Watch your friends and your enemies can’t hurt you. Sometimes your ...read more

    A look at several (from entertainment and science) who started out as failures but became great successes. Samson is our model of one who started well, failed miserably, but was restored.

    The Restoration of a Failure Judges 16:20-22 Today I want to start by looking at some Famous Failures. 1. He was fired by a newspaper editor for lack of creativity and imagination. 2.

    The truth is, we have our own “Achilles’ heel.” These are areas of the enemy’s favorite target points. We may fall like Samson (only He knows) except when we lean on God’s grace in the spiritual battle. When God gives special abilities, the more we shall

    Samson: The Final Chapter, Part 1 Series

    Contributed by Jonathan Spurlock on Apr 20, 2020
     | 4,087 views

    Samson went back to Philistine land twice, after his escape from Gaza , looking for love. He got more than he bargained for. When he met Delilah, and told her the secret of his strength, that led to the final chapter of his life.

    Introduction: Samson, by this time, had survived a number of encounters with the Philistines, Israel’s enemy and rulers at the time. This final chapter of his life is not the best chapter, in that he fell into an enemy’s trap. That would cost him his sight, and led to the cost of his life. Even ...read more

    When these events took place, Samson was in trouble and he knew it. The final chapter of his life concludes with a very significant event. May we learn from Samson: trust God, but don't make the same mistakes he did!

    Introduction: When the events of this story took place, Samson is in the Philistine prison in Gaza (16:21); his head was shaved and he was bound in fetters of bronze (brass, KJV). He was sentenced to grind (grain?) in the prison house. Even worse, he was blind—the Philistines had put out his eyes ...read more

    Manipulation is a demonic spirit that one must be delivered from, so that one would not manipulate others and one would not be manipulated.

    What is manipulation? In my own understanding, manipulation is: • An act of tactically influencing another person mind into thinking or doing what they would not have otherwise thought or done. • A demonic and afflicting spirit, because of the characters it exhibits.

    based on 5 ratings
     | 5,555 views

    Although his life is filled with one exciting adventure, Samson had a fatal attraction to the Philistine world. We must be careful about what claims our attention and dominates out thought life. If you get too close to the world, the world will dine you, wine you, blind you & bind you.
