Our gracious God is looking to bless and use His people in extraordinary ways, and it is important to believe that personally. So during another time of spiritual decline in Israel, an angel appeared to Manoah's wife, and revealed God's plan to give her and her husband the son they hadn't been able to have. He would become Samson, a judge of Israel and someone for whom the Lord had a specific plan. Their humble and dependent response, and outward commitment to His calling, provides a clear example of how God's power can be expressed in our lives. when we consecrate ourselves to Him.
