NKJV 365 Day Reading Plan

Day 223 of 365 Samson is one of the greatest puzzles in the Bible. He had the potential to be something great for God-like you-and to lead people out of their backsliding. Humanly speaking, Samson had super-human qualities. Physically, none were stronger. Mentally, he was sharp, clever. Of Samson it was said, "He shall begin to deliver Israel out of the hand of the Philistines" (Judg. 13:5). God intended him to turn on the light, stand in the gap, turn the tide. But Samson was the "he-man" with the "she-weakness." His life illustrates wasted potential. Don't let this happen to you! Taken from Start! The Bible for New Believers Judges 13:24 NASB 24 Then the woman gave birth to a son and named him Samson; and the child grew up and the L ord blessed him.
