A Holy Spirit Strengthened Samson


The angel appeared to Manoah’s wife and told her that she would conceive and have a son. Since the boy had to be set apart as a Nazirite of God, no razor may be used on his head, he was not supposed to drink any wine and eat anything unclean. The lord was going to use him to deliver the Israelites from the hands of the Philistines.

Manoah named his son Samson, the meaning of ‘Samson” was ‘Sun’, it represents light and strength. The Lord set him apart to be holy. As he grew, the Lord blessed him, and he grew up strong and healthy The spirit of the Lord came upon him in power that he could tore. a lion apart with his bare hands as he might have torn a young goat. On another occasion, the spirit of the lord came upon him in power that he struck down thirty men.

Samson has a special birth, he was born out of the will of god. He was born as a servant for the Lord, he had a special mission to accomplish and the spirit of the Lord came upon him in power to equip him to deliver the Israelites from the hand of the Philistines, but Samson did not accomplish God’s will. However, God was able to use the mistakes Samson made to accomplish his desired will.
