Today we hear the end of the story of Samson. God was gracious over and over to Samson, but he was too entrenched in his fleshly desires, ignoring God and chasing what he wanted.

We need to heed the warning from Samson's story. We need to guard ourselves from our fleshly desires. Put on Christ and decide everyday that you're going to live for Christ. Make choices that keep you from giving in to your desires that will pull you away from God.

Brother Dave shares the message today out of Hebrews 10, he talks about the ineffectiveness of Old Testament sacrifices versus the effectiveness of Christ's sacrifice.

We continue in Judges and the story of Samson. In this portion of scripture we see Samson being ruled by his desires.

Do you ever struggle wanting something so much that the desire rules you? This is the everyday struggle for Christians.

Read, Memorize and Meditate on the Word of God. Understand your position in Christ and deny the desires of the flesh, put on Christ.

In the story of Samson we see the Lord use an imperfect couple to help make a way for the deliverance of the people of Israel.

We are all imperfect, however we should do our best to be theologically sharp and walk in Christ in order to be able to point others to God.

Can God use you if you're compromised or if you still need to grow and change? or repent?

Jephtha is the next Judge that the Israelites ask to lead them. He is not a perfect leader. He does things that are not smart, however, the Lord uses him.

We are all imperfect, yet the Lord uses us in many ways. Its our job to stay humble and meek and listen for His calling on our lives. We have to learn to trust the Lord and obey, ask the Lord to help our unbelief and repent when necessary.

In the absence of Pastor Kevin, David Egesdal preaches on the story of the Prodigal Son from Luke 15.

Identify your sin.

Take ownership for your sin.

Ask the Lord for forgiveness.

Replace the lies you were believing with Truth.

Walk in righteousness with the Lord.

The story continues. Gideon has died and now Israel has done evil in the sight of God. The children of Israel did not remember the Lord their God.

God is faithful.

God always remembers us even though we don't always remember Him.

God worked through Gideon and then Gideon struggled to maintain his personal walk with God. This serves as a warning for everyone.

We should seek to humbly honor the Lord in all we do. Do you let God impact your walk?
