Read through the Bible in 2 Years: Judges 16

Judges 16 has lessons for both men and women. I have been blessed with two sons as well as two daughters. I see lessons here for both of them.

Sons: Be careful who you fall for. The wrong woman will lead you in the wrong direction. Strong men can become weak men in a woman’s hands. Get to know who a woman really is before you give her your heart. When you see that she has a selfish, manipulative, deceitful spirit, RUN!

Daughters: Be careful how you use your seductive powers. You can manipulate a man into doing things both you and he will regret. Just because you can, doesn’t mean you should. Don’t manipulate men, making them your puppet. It will only lead you astray.

Heavenly Father, I pray for my sons and daughters. May their hearts belong to You. May You be their greatest treasure. Protect them from the sins of deceit and manipulation. Teach them to guard their hearts. Fill their hearts with pure, holy desires that they would love what You love and hate what You hate. In the Name of Jesus Christ I pray. Amen.
