Caught in the riddle


It's been a long time since I can remember eating Lyle's Golden syrup, but I do remember the famous scripture they have quoted on their tins, “Out of the eater, something to eat, out of the strong, came something sweet”. (Judges 14). Samson told the riddle to his enemies to confound them. We get so caught up in the riddle that we miss one of the most beautiful analogy's in scripture.

God gave Samson supernatural strength to kill the lion. He kills the lion and then comes back some time later and there is a bees hive with sweet honey in it. Can you think of a new testement scripture this mirror's? Romans 8:28...All things work togther for the good of those who love the Lord and are called according to his purpose.

When Satan tries to take his best swing at us, God will give us supernatural spiritual strength to overcome his evil and turn his evil plans into something good that that benefit our lives. Talk about the ultimate outwit, outsmart, outplay!
