The enemies -the Lords of the Philistines laid their hands on Samson, and made mockery of him to the extent that Samson could not withstand the same but rather prayed for God's help and agreed to die with his enemies.
Beloved, it is a painful thing when a believer that has been casting out demons etc through the power of the Holy Spirit now becomes a caricature of his enemies. It is a painful thing for an unbeliever that a believer has been a source of encouragement to, and now for such an unbeliever to become someone that mocks such a believer.
You do not have to be there before you will know the kind of pain and shame that Samson passed through before he prayed such an horrible prayers: Numbers 16:28-30 says:" And Samson called unto the Lord,
and said, O Lord God, remember me, I pray thee, and strengthen me, I
pray thee, only this once, O God, that I may be at once avenged of the
Philistines for my two eyes. And
Samson took hold of the two middle pillars upon which the house stood,
and on which it was borne up, of the one with his right hand, and of the
other with his left.30 And
Samson said, Let me die with the Philistines. And he bowed himself with
all his might; and the house fell upon the lords, and upon all the
people that were therein. So the dead which he slew at his death were
more than they which he slew in his life".
Beloved, may your enemy never humilate you and your household in Jesus name.
May you never become a caricature of your enemies in the mighty name of Jesus.
You will fulfil the plan of God for your life and you shall be celebrated in the mighty name of Jesus.
Have a glorious day, and happy new month.
