NOTE: This Summons Message was released on 01/20/22, but I was instructed to not publish it till now.
Ruben was summoned in the usual way. The angel came, tapped him on the shoulder, said, "You're summoned," and they walked the steps into Heaven. When he began releasing this to me it was just during our usual mid-morning FaceTime conversation. He wasn't wearing his tallit, just regular work clothes, so at first I didn't realize what was happening until I noticed his countenance and voice had changed; the anointing was on him. Then I began recording. Some of you who are familiar with The Journey will notice the absence of Ruben's prayer, description of Heaven's aromas and the people he observes. He explained when I asked him, that this experience was very different. He was taken in the spirit back in time to watch, as if he had been present, when these events happened. You might want to go to this earlier Summons Message and read of a similar experience, under Summons Messages for the year 2017. The date is 11/18/17 - MICHAEL & JERUSALEM.
For The Journey and Ruben,
Judy
Ruben: .....it's about forgiveness, and a man. A man that was anointed. A powerful man, but he had a weakness and there was a price to pay. The man was Samson.....
And he fell into a spell, a spell such as would attract him to a woman. His season was up just like anybody else. But the woman that was so beyond beautiful, more than anybody could ever imagine; what was her desire? Her desire was not to live the way she used to live. She wanted more. More riches, more wealth, and to be acknowledged. So the devil said, I can give you all the wealth you need if you help me with this man. So she was up to being bought.
But deep inside this woman had feelings for Samson. She did care, in her own way. But was still thinking about beautiful things, rubies, jewelry, clothing, things she could wear, maids here and there, servants. All she had to do was find out a secret. A secret that was only given to Samson. Nobody knew. So she had to seduce him. Win his trust with love, compassion; his heart, his mind and spirit. Even get down to the soul, because in the soul was the secret. And it was very deep in his soul because nobody knew, only the Father and Samson. So she really had to paint herself more than she could have imagined.....and to fall in love, not realizing that by falling love she would care more than she could imagine, in a very deep and different way.
Yes, she was human. Yes, she had feelings. But there was a price like anything else. There was a price because of what she'd done and what she was committed to do. She gave her soul. So it was forgiveness. Finally Samson decided that she could be trusted and so it slipped--didn't take much, it slipped. What no man, no woman ever knew. Only the Spirit and the Father. By seducing Samson in darkness--by darkness, evil, weakness.
Can you imagine how many spirits were surrounding Samson waiting to hear his weakness, his power, his might, his authority, his zeal, his love, his compassion--what he believed in? Surrounded with demons ready to hear? Oh, they celebrated alright. They jumped with joy, laughter, with fire. That's the only way to destroy a man of God is to find out their weakness--what is their secret? So Samson spoke something that he never should have because of what he really felt for this woman. A woman that he could trust. A woman that he would do anything for. My power comes within my hair...... Nobody would believe it, not even the woman. Not even the woman that would say, your hair!? You get your strength from your hair!? How could that be? Because they don't know the difference between the Spirit and the anointing, and what they assumed was probably some kind of energy, or liquid, or something he ate or practiced.
His strength was within his hair because within his hair was the root, the root into his soul. Deep, deep root. What grew in his head was the root--root of power, of strength, blessing, anointing. The more that he kept it long, the more it grew, the anointing would always be there. Then he could fight and fight legions and legions of soldiers because he prayed to the Father. He asked the Father, "Let me be victorious over my enemy." But it was like having angels fighting with him in battle. Angels that no one could see. No one could ever understand, and you could hear it over and over that he could defeat an army, a legion, with the jaw bone of an ass! A bone? A jaw bone? Really? That bone never did break. Never shattered. There were angels surrounding Samson helping him strike every blow! Every blow.
But this woman pursued him. Played with his hair, said, "What is your secret that I can have some?" But Samson was already wrapped in the web of being deceived by love, beauty, scent. So he said the word, "It's in my hair." So this woman says, "You mean if I cut this hair you'll be as normal as any man?" "Yes." And you could see the demons flying all around him, we know his secret! We know his secret! We can defeat him now, we can defeat him! Sure enough,
Samson became as weak as anybody else. Had no strength, no will, no power anymore. The Spirit had left him. The Spirit that was in him but left because of what he said. He revealed the secret. He revealed a covenant that was meant for him, no one else. So the covenant was broken. And they tortured Samson like they would anybody else.
This woman was still in love with him, still cared for him. Oh, yeah, she got rewarded alright. But what they did to Samson by whipping him, using him like a mule going in circles all day grinding grain like a slave, and burning out his eyes so he would never be able to see. Can you imagine your eyes being burned out, not being able to see your skin anymore, or who was in front of you, or your loved ones? Pure darkness? He was wrapped up in a web of darkness. How is it he lost his sight by a blade so hot it would take his vision away?
But this woman would try to go and see him only to find out that he could not see her. She did not know, she would just go and see him whenever she could. But to find out that something happened, that she had feelings for Samson, not realizing what was the cost. Was it better this way, that Samson could not see what she had become? That's what she wanted him to see. Look at me now, look where I'm at. Could you give me all this? You went village to village, you traveled. That was her intention, to show what she has now. But that didn't mean anything to her anymore after realizing that he could not see.
But Samson's time was up. They brought him into an arena where thousands of people could go watch different events, but the main attraction was Samson. They said about Samson that he was a god with supernatural strength. They mocked him. Over and over and over they mocked him. So you can call this, spirits. How they laughed at him, mocked him, how they tried to trip him, used their spears to pierce him till he bled.....and he could not see. Soldiers mocked him saying, "Where's your strength now Samson? Where is your God?"
But he requested one thing. To put him in the center of this arena's pillars. Sure, why not. They didn't know what was going to happen. But there was a purpose. As Samson was led he asked, "Is this the center of the pillars?" "Yes, what are you going to do with it?" And out of no where the woman appeared behind him and said, "I'm sorry. I did not know. Can you not free yourself Samson? Can you not free yourself?" Samson told her, "Do not be concerned. I don't want you here because something great is going to happen. Go back where you belong." Then Samson cried out to the Father. "Father, I'm sorry. I'm sorry and I ask for forgiveness. Forgive me for what I have done. I'm not asking for life, but give me strength once more so I may die with my enemies. Let me die here."
And the woman was still behind Samson, and she heard all this. And she said, "If you are Samson's God, grant what he is asking. And I ask you to forgive me for what I have done to Samson."
So, forgiveness. Forgiveness is a powerful word. Forgiveness. Do we make mistakes? Yes. Do we say things we shouldn't say? Yes. Does our neighbor, or in church, or our co-workers; do they say things to us, or our sons, our daughters, our mothers, fathers, that hurt deeply, but do we forgive? If we do not forgive then the Father won't forgive us.
“Be gentle and forbearing with one another and, if one has a difference (a grievance or complaint) against another, readily pardoning each other; even as the Lord has [freely] forgiven you, so must you also [forgive].”

““And when you pray, make sure you forgive the faults of others so that your Father in heaven will also forgive you. But if you withhold forgiveness from others, your Father withholds forgiveness from you.” Matthew 6:14,15 TPT
“So also My heavenly Father will deal with every one of you if you do not freely forgive your brother from your heart his offenses.” Matthew 18:35 AMPC
Yeshua asked the Father to forgive those who crucified Him. "And Jesus prayed, Father, forgive them, for they know not what they do...." Luke 23:34 AMPC
