Sermon: 9/13/26- Thursday's Devotional
God Acts Even When We Do Not Ask
Reading: Romans 5:6-8
One of the most striking details in Samson's story is that the Israelites never cried out to God for deliverance. They did not ask. They did not pray. They did not even recognize their need. And yet God sent a deliverer anyway. He initiated. He acted. He made good on His promises to a people who were not paying attention. This is the nature of grace. Paul describes in Romans how God demonstrated His love not when humanity was seeking Him, but while they were still far off. You do not have to have everything right before God moves on your behalf. He has already moved. That is the gospel.
