The Incredible Samson
Samson is the biblical Hercules, a man of super-human strength who nonetheless could not escape tragedy. Samson’s story is found in the Book of Judges chapters 13-16. He is the last of the major judges who led the Israelites, but he is hardly an ideal role model or savior. Samson breaks vows, marries outside of the people of Israel twice, and functions more as a vigilante than a leader.

The Boy Prophet Samuel
Son of Elkanah and Hannah, Samuel was born in answer to his mother’s prayers. As a child he was placed in the care of Eli, high priest at the tabernacle at Shilo. The Lord called Samuel at a young age to become a prophet (1 Sam. 3). After Eli’s death, Samuel became the great prophet and judge of Israel and restored law, order, and regular religious worship in the land.

During the reign of King Uzziah, King Jotham and King Ahaz... God called a great prophet named Isaiah. He was sent to preach the Word of God to the southern kingdom of Israel. *PAST One day, prophet Isaiah, went to the temple… Isaiah: Glory to God! Today, I will worship my Lord!
Isaiah (thinking): I will offer my strength and my life to my God… Isaiah: I am here Lord, send me! God: From now on, I will send you. You will be my prophet… Since then, Isaiah preached the word of God to all the people of Israel. Isaiah lived for a very long time preaching the words of God until he is old. Isaiah: I will not stop preaching… I may have reached my time of death… but God will continue to send His messengers… to bring His words with wonders. END

Isaiah and The Mystery of the Sent One of God
Isaiah was a hopeful, faithful and loving prophet of God. Much of his message is relevant for our time. Isaiah was a prophet for the kingdom of Judah. Rabbinic tradition has it that Isaiah's father, Amoz (not the same as Amos the prophet), was a brother of King Amaziah. This would make Isaiah first cousin to King Uzziah and grandson to King Joash.

During the 8th century, there was a prophet named Hosea Hosea: I wonder what mission will I receive from God? God: Hosea! Hosea: My Lord? What do you want me to do? God: Bring my Word to the people of the city. He was the messenger of God throughout Israel.
He also revealed the coming punishment and the destruction of Israel because of their evil works. Hosea: Just as God forgives, I also forgive you Gomer … But according to prophet Hosea, God will restore and rebuild His nation, Israel. They will once again experience abundant blessings from God. Hosea (thinking): All these prophecies from God shall come to pass… I must make them ready… Hosea (thinking): I will let them know the message of God… as long as I live. END
