03/27/2026 – “Old Testament Pentecost” / “Now the Lord is the Spirit; and where the Spirit of the Lord is, there is freedom. We all, with unveiled faces, are reflecting the glory of the Lord and are being transformed into the same image from glory to glory, this is from the Lord who is the Spirit.” 2 Corinthians 3: 17 – 18 / see John Gill commentary below – verse 18.
The Strength Of Samson
Friday, March 27, 2026
“Samson was bound by his enemies with two new ropes. But when the Spirit of the Lord came upon him in power, the ropes became like charred flax. The bindings dropped from his hands as nothing. You might be dealing with a bondage in your life, maybe a habit or bondage to anger, lust, fear, a thought, temptation, gloom, or whatever. If something has you bound up, look at Samson. He was bound, but what happened? The Holy Spirit came on him and his bonds became as nothing. So in your life and walk, if you want to be free from bondage, the answer is live by the Spirit of God. The more you live by the Spirit, the more you’ll be free from any bondage of the flesh. The more you walk, rejoice, move, and press on in the Spirit, the more you’ll be walking in freedom. In the Spirit of God, there’s freedom. When you start living and moving in the Spirit, the bondage and chains are going to become like burnt flax. You’ll shake them off and go forth, to live a life of freedom and overcoming victory.”
From Message #1042 – Old Testament Pentecost
Scripture: 2 Corinthians 3:17
TODAY’S MISSION – Today, walk in the power of God’s Spirit and shake off the chains of bondage like burnt flax.
