His wife was unable to become pregnant and had not given birth to any children. 3 The Lord’s messenger appeared to the woman and said to her, “Even though you’ve been unable to become pregnant and haven’t given birth, you are now pregnant and will give birth to a son! 17 Manoah (the woman’s husband) said to the Lord’s messenger, “What’s your name, so that we may honor you when your words come true?” 18 The Lord’s messenger responded to him, “Why do you ask my name? You couldn’t understand it.” 19 So Manoah took a young goat and a grain offering and offered them on a rock to the Lord. While Manoah and his wife were looking, an amazing thing happened: 20 as the flame from the altar went up toward the sky, the Lord’s messenger went up in the altar’s flame. When Manoah and his wife saw this, they fell facedown on the ground. 21 The Lord’s messenger didn’t reappear to Manoah or his wife, and Manoah then realized that it had been the Lord’s messenger. 22 Manoah said to his wife, “We are certainly going to die, because we’ve seen God!” 23 But his wife replied to him, “If the Lord wanted to kill us, he wouldn’t have accepted the entirely burned offering and grain offering from our hands. He wouldn’t have shown us all these things or told us all of this now.” 24 The woman gave birth to a son and named him Samson. The boy grew up, and the Lord blessed him. 25 The Lord’s spirit began to move him when he was in Mahaneh-dan, between Zorah and Eshtaol. SERMON The News!

PRAISE SONG As the Deer Pants for the Water (Maranatha Music) As the deer panteth for the water / So my soul longeth after Thee

You alone are my heart's desire And I long to worship Thee

You alone are my strength, my shield / To You alone may my spirit yield

You alone are my heart's desire And I long to worship Thee

You're my friend / And You are my brother

Even though You are a King /I love You more than any other

So much more than anything /

You alone are my strength, my shield / To You alone may my spirit yield

You alone are my heart's desire And I long to worship Thee

I want You more than gold or silver /Only You can satisfy

You alone are the real joy giver / And the apple of my eye

You alone are my strength, my shield / To You alone may my spirit yield

You alone are my heart's desire And I long to worship Thee

PRAISE SONG How Great is our God (Worship & Song 3003)

The splendor of a King, clothed in majesty / Let all the Earth rejoice / All the Earth rejoice / He wraps

himself in light / And darkness tries to hide

And trembles at His voice / Trembles at His voice

How great is our God, sing with me / How great is our God, and all will see

How great, how great is our God

Age to age He stands / And time is in His hands / Beginning and the end

The Godhead Three in One / Father Spirit Son

The Lion and the Lamb / The Lion and the Lamb

How great is our God, sing with me / How great is our God, and all will see

How great, how great is our God

Name above all names / Worthy of our praise / My heart will sing / How great is our God

You're the name above all names / You are worthy of our praise

And my heart will sing / How great is our God

How great is our God, sing with me / How great is our God, and all will see

How great, how great is our God

How great is our God, sing with me / How great is our God, and all will see

How great, how great is our God
