Day Nine. #RunToWin
At the mention of the name Samson, we are quick to think of his powerful exploits, but as I searched the Scriptures more, I think of his lust for women too.
Samson was singled out by GOD in his generation for exploits, but he nearly missed the podium.
Samson did not fancy money like Judas, I don't think he was given to wine or material things either--his lust was after women.
There is some bad news here: we all have our "species of lust!"
But every person is tempted when he is drawn away, enticed and baited by his own evil desire (lust, passions).
And our lust doesn't kill us immediately, it gradually injures us, leaving us weaker with each blow, before finally knocking us out.
If injured, a footballer only misses a few minutes, in order to get help from the medic, but if he pretends to be fine, and refuses help, he will definitely miss many games afterwards.
There's only one place to return to, for treatment this evening. It is The Throne of Grace.
That's where I'm headed right now.
Hope you're coming too?
