I'M NOT WHAT YOU THINK
Judges 16:6 (NKJV)
So Delilah said to Samson, "Please tell me where your great strength lies, and with what you may be bound to afflict you."
Have you ever seen a movie or read an illustrated book about the life of Samson? He is usually depicted as a giant hulking character, like Schwarzenegger in his prime. Samson was known for his superhuman strength, it would be a reasonable assumption that he looked that way, but he did not. Samson's physical prowess was undetectable in his appearance, and that is why the Philistines did everything they could to discover the secret to his strength.
As Christians, we face a similar dilemma. We are beyond human, yet we live in a world where we are judged on our outward appearance. To the average human eye, we look like mere mortals, and we may appear weak, but we are not. The Bible says we have a treasure in our earthen vessels, meaning our bodies. We carry God, the omnipotent creator of the universe, and there is nothing weak about us.
The governments of this world include us in their census counts. They number us among the billions of human beings on this planet, but we are not from here. So, do not get perturbed when people look down on you and think you are just like them or even lesser. They did the same thing to Jesus. Hold your head up today and walk tall because God is in you.
PROPHETIC DECLARATION
