How The Powerful Become Powerless

 Samson Had Been Raised Up To Lead And
Deliver Israel
 He Was Consecrated To A Nazarite Vow
 A Nazarite Vow Was A Promise That He

Would Put God First Always
Samson Had Many Spiritual Advantages

 He Came From A Good Home
 He Had An Attractive Nature
 He Had A Good Religious Tradition
 He Had Experienced Holy Spirit Power
 He Had Seen Answers To His Prayers
 1 John 2:15-17 (NIV) (15) Do not love the

world or anything in the world. If anyone
loves the world, the love of the Father is not
in him. (16) For everything in the world--the
cravings of sinful man, the lust of his eyes
and the boasting of what he has and does--
comes not from the Father but from the
world. (17) The world and its desires pass
away, but the man who does the will of God
lives forever.
 THREE BASIC COMPONENTS OF

WORLDLY LIVING & THINKING:
1. To want things to please ourselves -
- “Cravings Of Sinful Man”
2. To want the things that we see –
“The Lust Of His Eyes”
3. Too proud of the things that we

have – “Boasting Of What He Has And Does”
WHAT WAS SAMSON’S PROBLEM?
 He Did Not Obey God’s Word
 He Did Not Love God’s People
 He Did Not Give Honor To God

 When A Person Who Has Been Set Free Allows
Sin Back In Their Lives It Will Make Them Captive

offer yourselves to someone to obey him as
slaves, you are slaves to the one whom you
obey--whether you are slaves to sin, which leads
to death, or to obedience, which leads to
righteousness?"
How Does Spiritual Bondage Occur?
 Prov 5:22 (NIV) "The evil deeds of a wicked

man ensnare him; the cords of his sin hold
him fast."
 Evil Deeds And Cords Of Sin Make It

Impossible To Walk Or Move
How Can I Be Truly Free?
 It’s Through Christ Living In Us That We

Can Know True Freedom
 God’s Spirit Living In Us Empowers Us To

Live For Him In This World
