Judges 16:10
Then Delilah said to Samson, "You have made a fool of me; you lied to me. Come now, tell me how you can be tied."

Women were certainly Samson's downfall. Did Samson not see what Delilah was trying to do? I think he knew. I think his lust was so great that he didn't care. I think that he was so confident in his strength that he didn't care. Sometimes we want what we want regardless of the consequences. In verse 20 we are told that Samson did not know the Lord had left him. He was totally surprised at the consequences of his actions. How could this happen? Wasn't he chosen by God for this roll? We can be the same way. As the elect, the chosen, the believers in Christ...do we become so confident in our position that we behave in the same selfish self centered manner as Samson. We want what we want when we want it. We don't think through the consequences. We don't stop and take a look at the big picture. We forget that our purpose is to glorify God in everything we do. "Lord, Samson was deceived by the woman because he allowed her to deceive him. Open my eyes. Do not let me allow deception in my life. In Jesus' name."

She pretends to be embarrassed at what Samson has done to get him to tell her the real reason for his great strength. Why is he listening to her is hard to rationalize. This too has to be the will of God. (Amazing)
