Samson went to Gaza, and there he saw a prostitute (Delilah), and he went in to her. Judges 16:1
You will ask me, "Jimsen, why do some people take time to change." The reason is that if God changes them immediately they will leave God. You will ask, "Jimsen how is that possible? Self confidence is a kind of deception from God. They will think that they have gained enough strength to overcome everything and they will leave God. They will be deceived by the devil, making them think that they will never again go back to their old. It is nothing but a deception. If the branch falls off from the tree will it still be green? No! It has to be in the tree for it to remain green and bear fruit and survive.
When self confident people, leave God, they might not have gained enough strength to overcome their temptations. They are not willing to take the medicine (hear/ read Bible) prescribed by God, because they think they will be able to overcome by their own strength. When a patient who is recently discharged from the hospital is weak. If he doesn't continue to take the medicines prescribed by the doctor, he will not gain enough strength for the healing to complete. Instead, he might get more affected. Hence, God works in every individual, basis who we are and how we are going to progress when we are changed. God through a procedure brings about a slow but steady change, so that we never return back to our addictions and wrong choices. He helps us completely overcome it, that we never get tempted by it again.
God is warning you on the inside, listen to the warnings and you will not end up making poor choices. God is trying to save you from making wrong decisions, which is trying to ruin your life. God will not force you, but He will surely warn you. The final choice remains with you, whether you want to take the warning or not.
