The (Modern Day) Nazirite Vow For Young Men & Women

{ Adapted from A Leaders Heart Devotional, J.Maxwell }

Through the vow of the Nazirite (see Numbers 6), God provided a way for both men and women to specially consecrate themselves to the Lord for a special time and purpose. Leaders such as Samson made this vow, committing to abstain from wine and strong drink, to leave their hair uncut, and to avoid contact with corpses. They gave up certain rights or options in order to live at a higher standard.

​They did so not to stand in judgment of others, but to discipline themselves against the temptations of the day.

How can today's (young) men and women apply the principle behind the Nazarite vow?
