SUMMARY (1)
In our previous study, we learnt that;
Samson’s actions was in fulfilment of the goal and purpose of his birth.
Believers should not
revenge
the
wrongs
others
do
to
them
.
The Spirit of God
came
upon
Samson;
yet
God
did
not
approve
his
wayward
lifestyle: God
departed
from
him
when
he
sinned
.
When the believer is baptised in the Holy Ghost, he is filled to live and serve the Lord.
Prayer opens the gate of heaven. It moves the hand of God and supplies every need.Slide4

In our this study, we
shall
see
:
What lust
means:
It is an uncontrolled desire for something, especially sexual immorality that satisfies the flesh and always has a ruinous end
.
How Samson
became
blind
and
en
slaved
because of his uncontrolled
desires
.
Samson never allowed God to
conquer
him
:
Although he was a great conqueror, he was not disciplined and depended on his own
strength
.
The result of
Samson’s
unequal
yoke
and
what
led
to
his
fall
.Slide5
