🇺🇸Pray For The Peace of Jerusalem 🇮🇱(6/10/26)[Prayer]





Personalities

Judges 13

13 And the children of Israel did evil again in the sight of the Lord; and the Lord delivered them into the hand of the Philistines forty years.

2 And there was a certain man of Zorah, of the family of the Danites, whose name was Manoah; and his wife was barren, and bare not.

3 And the angel of the Lord appeared unto the woman, and said unto her, Behold now, thou art barren, and bearest not: but thou shalt conceive, and bear a son.

4 Now therefore beware, I pray thee, and drink not wine nor strong drink, and eat not any unclean thing:

5 For, lo, thou shalt conceive, and bear a son; and no razor shall come on his head: for the child shall be a Nazarite unto God from the womb: and he shall begin to deliver Israel out of the hand of the Philistines.

6 Then the woman came and told her husband, saying, A man of God came unto me, and his countenance was like the countenance of an angel of God, very terrible: but I asked him not whence he was, neither told he me his name:

7 But he said unto me, Behold, thou shalt conceive, and bear a son; and now drink no wine nor strong drink, neither eat any unclean thing: for the child shall be a Nazarite to God from the womb to the day of his death.

8 Then Manoah intreated the Lord, and said, O my Lord, let the man of God which thou didst send come again unto us, and teach us what we shall do unto the child that shall be born.

9 And God hearkened to the voice of Manoah; and the angel of God came again unto the woman as she sat in the field: but Manoah her husband was not with her.

10 And the woman made haste, and ran, and shewed her husband, and said unto him, Behold, the man hath appeared unto me, that came unto me the other day.

11 And Manoah arose, and went after his wife, and came to the man, and said unto him, Art thou the man that spakest unto the woman? And he said, I am.

12 And Manoah said, Now let thy words come to pass. How shall we order the child, and how shall we do unto him?

13 And the angel of the Lord said unto Manoah, Of all that I said unto the woman let her beware.

14 She may not eat of any thing that cometh of the vine, neither let her drink wine or strong drink, nor eat any unclean thing: all that I commanded her let her observe.

15 And Manoah said unto the angel of the Lord, I pray thee, let us detain thee, until we shall have made ready a kid for thee.

16 And the angel of the Lord said unto Manoah, Though thou detain me, I will not eat of thy bread: and if thou wilt offer a burnt offering, thou must offer it unto the Lord. For Manoah knew not that he was an angel of the Lord.

17 And Manoah said unto the angel of the Lord, What is thy name, that when thy sayings come to pass we may do thee honour?

18 And the angel of the Lord said unto him, Why askest thou thus after my name, seeing it is secret?

19 So Manoah took a kid with a meat offering, and offered it upon a rock unto the Lord: and the angel did wonderously; and Manoah and his wife looked on.

20 For it came to pass, when the flame went up toward heaven from off the altar, that the angel of the Lord ascended in the flame of the altar. And Manoah and his wife looked on it, and fell on their faces to the ground.

21 But the angel of the Lord did no more appear to Manoah and to his wife. Then Manoah knew that he was an angel of the Lord.

22 And Manoah said unto his wife, We shall surely die, because we have seen God.

23 But his wife said unto him, If the Lord were pleased to kill us, he would not have received a burnt offering and a meat offering at our hands, neither would he have shewed us all these things, nor would as at this time have told us such things as these.

24 And the woman bare a son, and called his name Samson: and the child grew, and the Lord blessed him.

25 And the Spirit of the Lord began to move him at times in the camp of Dan between Zorah and Eshtaol.

( The King James Version)

During the wild and crazy time of the Biblical Judges, there were some "real characters". Looking at their personalities is like reading case studies in a Psychology Textbook. Back in those days, they didn't have terms like "Narcissistic Personality Disorder" or "Passive Agressive Manipulation", but those conditions existed whether or not the people had scientific words for them. Usually, people would be labeled a "Fool", and that would be that. Here's something I wrote about "The Fool" when we were studying the Book of Proverbs:

"Today's Chapter has a varied group of Proverbs, addressing all manner of folly.

I remember a particular passage from my youth, which was quoted extensively when LBJ picked up a DOG by his ears! Now, that was indeed a foolish thing to do, but the Hebrew word that is translated as "fool" does not mean the same as our English usage. To us, this word means someone who has a cognitive deficit, or somebody who is intellectually challenged. In Shakespeare's day, it meant a jester, or someone who pretended to be a fool but who was really quite clever. A Shakespearean "Fool" could get away with sarcasm and frankness, as long as it made the king laugh. That is not the "fool" of the Bible.

The "fool" in the Bible is morally deficient.
He says in his heart, "There is no God."
He deceives his neighbor and then says "I was only joking" (Grrr...I HATE that!)
He is cruel to animals. (I HATE that too!)
He is not to be trusted with an important message.
He goes back to his folly.
He is lazy and irresponsible.
He thinks he's smarter than anyone else.

This is not some unfortunate person who was born with a low IQ. This "fool" is genuinely wicked.

I've never seen anybody else, much less a President of the United States, pick up a dog by his ears. I hope I shall never see that again!"


By that definition, Samson spent much of his life being a "fool". He was a Miracle Baby, Dedicated to God even before he was born, blessed with parents who adored him, and ended up in a position of honor as one of Israel's Judges. He also had amazing strength that made him a Legend.

He was accustomed to getting everything he wanted, when he wanted it. This would end up being his downfall. The need for "Instant Gratification" made him vulnerable to deceit and ruin. One wonders if his parents spoiled him rotten!

Fasten your seatbelts for the Story of Samson...UNCENSORED.

Come and Pray For the Peace of Jerusalem, For Our FRiends in Need, For Persecuted Believers, and For Our Beloved Nation.

Psalm 91

1 You who live in the shelter of the Most High,
who abide in the shadow of the Almighty,*
2 will say to the Lord, ‘My refuge and my fortress;
my God, in whom I trust.’
3 For he will deliver you from the snare of the fowler
and from the deadly pestilence;
4 he will cover you with his pinions,
and under his wings you will find refuge;
his faithfulness is a shield and buckler.
5 You will not fear the terror of the night,
or the arrow that flies by day,
6 or the pestilence that stalks in darkness,
or the destruction that wastes at noonday.

7 A thousand may fall at your side,
ten thousand at your right hand,
but it will not come near you.
8 You will only look with your eyes
and see the punishment of the wicked.

9 Because you have made the Lord your refuge,*
the Most High your dwelling-place,
10 no evil shall befall you,
no scourge come near your tent.

11 For he will command his angels concerning you
to guard you in all your ways.
12 On their hands they will bear you up,
so that you will not dash your foot against a stone.
13 You will tread on the lion and the adder,
the young lion and the serpent you will trample under foot.

14 Those who love me, I will deliver;
I will protect those who know my name.
15 When they call to me, I will answer them;
I will be with them in trouble,
I will rescue them and honour them.

Amen to your word and prayer. I wonder if Samson was really buff or just a normal person with supernatural strength, I kinda think so. His will was deceived by his strength.
