FAITH CAPSULE: The word of God is strength, secret to keep from the wicked world.

Judges 16

The testimonies of God are His testimonies.
The word of God is His secret.
The word of God is His strength.
When His word locates one, it becomes a portion of such not to become a failure answering to assignment in the word of God.
When the parent of Samson was barren, the word of God that is strength, secret, came to the parents of Samson (Manoah and his wife) as Judges 13:2-5 records, “Now there was a certain man from Zorah, of the family of the Danites, whose name was Manoah; and his wife was barren and had no children. And the Angel of the Lord appeared to the woman and said to her, “Indeed now, you are barren and have borne no children, but you shall conceive and bear a son. Now, therefore, please be careful not to drink wine or similar drink, and not to eat anything unclean. For behold, you shall conceive and bear a son. And no razor shall come upon his head, for the child shall be a Nazirite to God from the womb; and he shall begin to deliver Israel out of the hand of the Philistines.”
The word of God for Samson was a secret to avoid failure in the assignment of God over his life. 
The wife of Samson (Delilah) knows about the strength of Daniel, but she does not know the secret of his God as the strength. 
Judges 16:6 records, “So Delilah said to Samson, “Please tell me where your great strength lies, and with what you may be bound to afflict you.”
Just like Samson, are you one with the word of God (strength) to be kept as a secret?
Samson did not keep the word of God a secret from God but revealed it to the enemy of his life.
Judges 16:15-17 documents how Delilah pressed Samson to reveal the secret of his strength: “Then she said to him, “How can you say, ‘I love you,’ when your heart is not with me? You have mocked me these three times, and have not told me where your great strength lies.” And it came to pass when she pestered him daily with her words and pressed him, so that his soul was vexed to death, that he told her all his heart, and said to her, “No razor has ever come upon my head, for I have been a Nazirite to God from my mother’s womb. If I am shaven, then my strength will leave me, and I shall become weak, and be like any other man.”
Are you keeping testimony of God, His strength, His secret not to become a failure in answering the calling of God?
Learn the testimony of Samson, know to be keeping the word of God as the secret for your strength.
Do not become a victim of the wicked world.

Prayer for today: Ask God to order your mind not to become a victim of the wicked world.
