Let Your End Be Better Than Your Beginning

Let Your End Be Better

The story of Samson in the book of Judges is really not a pleasant read, but contains so many teaching points. Let’s look at one. He judged Israel for two decades, but he obviously had a lust problem. “Then went Samson to Gaza, and saw there an harlot, and went in unto her”. He was a type of Christ in his continual success over the Philistines, but he kept allowing women to be his down fall. He had a lust problem for women. So, let’s address lust.

God gave everyone a sex drive. A drive to be with a mate and have children. That’s natural. But too many times we confuse the sex drive with unmet emotional needs. Not enough space to detail them all, but here’s the thing. Take your lust, your desires, good, bad or ugly and ask the Lord to reveal to you the cause of these desires. He WILL fix these issues if you seek Him, are honest before Him and are looking to Him for answers.

Don’t end up like Samson, for sexual sin always ends in death. Spiritual death and sometimes physical death. It’s a tool Satan uses and you can read just where it got Samson, even though he was Chosen by God! Sobering thought, don’t you think?

Let your end be way better than your beginning, by surrendering it ALL and allowing Him to show you truths about yourself. Knowledge is power to overcome.
