The enemy comes not but to steal, kill and destroy.We must realize that there is nothing good in the enemy.He is a liar and the father of them.Yet many of us get caught daily in the web that he has woven, to capture and destroy that which God has created.The enemy is not going to be in a red suit with horns on his head,often times he will look just like that we are seeking in through the lust of the flesh,the lust of our eyes and the pride of life.
In our story today the enemy came in the image of a beautiful woman.There si a reason God tells us be not unequally yoked.See delilah was a deciever.She pretended to be one thing in order to destroy that which God had created.See much like Eve in the garden,Delilah was pleasant to look at in Samson eye, and it was the lust of his eye, that lead to the lust of his flesh, which caused him to tell delilah the secret of his heart.It is the deception of the enemy which causes us to surrender to him our hearts and hinder our relationship with God.Samson kept toying with her when he should have left her presence.Many of us are playing footsie with the enemy when we should leave him alone.
Satan is real,and as we see in our story after Delilah decieved Samson, she went on to destroy his life. He had to repent and return to God.Satan has decieved many and went on to destroy their lives.the only way back is to repent and turn back to God to be saved.
