Main Points:
----------------------------------------

How did he become a Playa?
Story of Samson:
Everything about him was Bigger than life
Relationships are made of Decisions the decisions then determine the direction of the Relationships
5 Points:
1. God Beginnings are Good Beginnings many don't appreciate your parents. These beginnings give you purpose
2. First Decision Judges 14:3 Picks a Crazy Wild Woman who is outwardly beautiful but inwardly ugly
3. They make superficial decisions that please themselves off top. The longer you date the longer you'll be together.
Tired of following his parents choices
God knew he would be Rebellious it was profi
4. God knows US Because He Knows US
Even when I make foolish choices God will Still Get His Purpose Done.
5. When you Not doing Gods will Trouble Follows You. Lion attacking him
6. Samson Keeps Secrets
7. Gods not going to stop you from Marrying the wrong person.
8. Some stuff is between You and Your Man. No one else. Ladies close your Mouths. If your Man don't tell You Nuttin' it could be cus you talk too much. Therefore he can't trust you with his secrets. So close your mouth and open your heart then your legs. And then your man will never leave. Paid his debt by killing 30 folks. Judges 14:18
9. Judges 14:20. Wife went to best man. Many will say they are loyal friends but who can find one.
10. Judges 15:7 betrayal causes Samson pain internal wounds. Playas compensate by having many....because any fool can have woman but A real Man will settle down and go for the Challenge of keeping One Good Woman.
11. Samson pays a hoe to keep his secrets he fronts with his boys but emotionally broken.
12. You can't sleep with someone and nothing happen. Can a man take fire into his chest and not be burned?
13. Playa (Samson)fell in love with a Playa (Delilah:Means Consumer)
He loved her but she loved his body.
14. Most men cheat because of Emotional issues. He needs emotional healing. Only 15% cheat because of sexual displeasure.
15. A mans heart revels the man. He gave his heart to the wrong person.
16. Judges 16:20 he didn't know God wasn't with Him.
17. God is still faithful: His hair began to grow. So his Strength Grew. God allows pain to make us Turn to Him. God will let you fall so you end up on your knees.
18. God has got to straighten you up when messed up when folks say Look I thought you were a Christian and look at you. In order to be saved Self as Got to Die. He killed more in his death than while he was at the top of his Game
20. Greater Love has no Man than this than a Man who lays Down His Life
for his friends. This is what God did for us at the Cross. Will you accept his gift.

Samson was looking for a Friend with Benifits but what he got was allot of pain.

God is a real Friend with Benifits:
God will take your Poverty and turn it into Plenty

Take Emptiness and make you Empowered.

Take your depression and deliver you from all your worries.

Give your issues to Jesus. Are you tried of stessin yet? If not God is still waiting. Come home to His arms.


***Start asking God what He wants and God will start listening to you. Rather than telling Him what we want.
