Samson
had just won a great Victory over the enemy. Then he found himself in incredible
thirst. Have
you ever been there? Right after a miracle in your life, it seems like the walls are
closing in on you. I know this has happened to me. It
appears that although the enemy can't stop the LORD
from blessing you, he can come in the back-door and try to steal what Joy you have. In
the Scripture above, Samson had just slain 1,000 Philistines with a donkey's jawbone.
You can only imagine the energy drain fighting a thousand soldiers must have been.
He was not just casually thirsty. It
was a life or death situation. But, the LORD
moved right in to save him and Samson remained a judge of Israel for 20 years. The
LORD is with you in the battle, and HE
does not forget you when it is done. You can count on HIM
being there by your back-door to make sure you retain that Victory. JESUS
