🎙 Episode Summary
In today's episode, we trace the final downward spiral of Samson—a man chosen by God but overtaken by his own desires. Judges 16 is a tragic yet illuminating story of what happens when God’s gifts are used without God's guidance. From Gaza to Delilah, from strength to blindness, this chapter lays bare the fruit of the flesh—the spiritual and moral consequences of walking in disobedience.
But this is more than a cautionary tale. It's also a testimony to grace. Because even at rock bottom, even after betrayal, lust, and failure, God wasn’t finished with Samson. And He’s not finished with you.
🔑 Key Themes
🙏 Reflection:
Where have you been relying on God's gifts while ignoring God's voice? Ask the Lord: “Strengthen me, I pray—just once more.”  Then turn back to Him with open hands, and watch grace begin to grow again.
