What makes your strength so great? You see, that was Delilah’s question. And one of Samson’s problems was that he answered that question. A short story takes place in Gaza, one of the major Philistine cities. Samson leaves Israel and heads to Gaza and finds a prostitute and sleeps with her. Delilah proceeds to press Samson to reveal the “secret of his strength. In today’s message, Pastor Wallace teaches about knowing the source of your strength. In the text the enemies mistook the symbol of his strength for the source of his strength. They didn’t listen to the whole answer. His hair was the symbol, not the source. The source of his strength was God, and the ruah, the Spirit of God. What makes our strength so great as African Americans? It is God. There is a correlation between our faith and our struggle.
