I think Samson was a man of God who instead of listening to God, listened to a deceitful woman always insisted on doing things his own way which lead to his destruction. He was boastful about having strength, never gave God the glory for giving him that strength. He didn 't have that strength without God 's Spirit filling him with it. Sometimes we too become proud boastful like Samson we have to suffer the consequences of our sins, but God never stops loving us, just like God never stopped loving Samson he never lost his salvation. God does not take that away. He promised eternal security we are saved by grace. Samson was chastised for his disobedience to God by losing his life with the philistines, yet he was saved through the fire. All that he accomplished accounted for nothing because of the choices he made, but in the end his life stood for something . When Samson turned to God prayed , God restored his strength one more time God still used him to deliver the Israelites at that time. God can always work in any situation, regardless of how futile it looks!
