READ: Judges 16:4-21
But he that is married careth for the things that are of the world, how he may please his wife.
1 Corinthians 7:33
If you are part of this world, you will be influenced by women. But the love of the Lord must be the biggest thing in your life. The success stories of ministry are always of men who did not live to please any man. They are stories of men who did not live to please any woman. You cannot please God and please your wife. You cannot please God and please a woman. You cannot please God and please your friends.
Samson was not destroyed by his wife! Samson was destroyed by a friend! Samson was not destroyed because he had sex with a woman. Samson was destroyed because he yielded to the influence and pressure that came on him from a woman.
Beware of the manipulations of a woman you love! Beware of the decisions you take because of a woman you love! Beware of loving your wife more than you love the Lord. You cannot love two masters. You cannot love two things. Let us focus on loving the Lord.
Truly, there is no other person that is worth loving as much as you love the Lord.
There is a door of destiny in the ministry. When you pass through that door you will not love any human being dearly again. You will love the Lord, and you will love only people that the Lord wants you to love.
Every person you love, who becomes a rival to the Lord, will be a source of pain to you. God is a jealous God and He wants to own you and keep you to Himself! If you love the Lord, you will not love any other master. Let us love the Lord with all our hearts and put aside all challenges to this love
