Apostle Grace Lubega
Judges 16:16-17 (NKJV): “And it came to pass, when she pestered him daily with her words and pressed him, so that his soul was vexed to death, that he told her all his heart, and said to her, “No razor has ever come upon my head, for I have been a Nazirite to God from my mother’s womb. If I am shaven, then my strength will leave me, and I shall become weak, and be like any other man.”

There are instructions that belong to everyone in the faith. These generic instructions are true for the whole household of God, and every believer is expected to walk in them.
However, there is also a category of instruction that never reaches the crowd. It is spoken when God separates you from the mass of people, pulls you aside from the two, three, or four thousand, and tells you something meant for you alone.
That separation is significant. When God removes you from the multitude and speaks to you privately, it is confirmation that a bigger assignment rests on your life, whether or not you fully understand it yet.
Samson received such a word. The Nazirite instruction concerning his hair was not given to every Israelite of his generation; it was personal, tied to his calling, and it carried the secret of the very anointing that sustained his strength.
Learn to cultivate a life of obedience to the personal instructions from God to you. They may be small, seemingly insignificant but with every decision to obey, you position yourself for more responsibility and greater things that God will do through you.
GOLDEN NUGGET: Isaiah 30:21; John 10:27
FURTHER STUDY: Learn to cultivate a life of obedience to the personal instructions from God to you. They may be small, seemingly insignificant but with every decision to obey, you position yourself for more responsibility and greater things that God will do through you.
PRAYER: Loving Father, I thank You for every personal instruction. I receive grace to obey fully, even when I do not yet understand the weight of what You have spoken. Let me never treat Your instructions as optional or ordinary. In Jesus’ name, Amen.
