Judges 13:8

Intreated the Lord. Manoah feared that he and his wife might make some mistake in carrying out the instruction, so he sought for further guidance and information. He took his problem to God in prayer, asking the Lord to direct the Man of God to come back and teach them further regarding the training of this promised child. One cannot but admire the faith of Manoah, who fully accepted and believed the Angel’s word. He took for granted that in due time this promised child would be given to them. His faith is in sharp contrast to that of the priest Zacharias, the father of John the Baptist, who asked for a sign when the angel of the Lord appeared to him and promised him a child (Luke 1:18). Blessed are those that have not seen, and yet, like Manoah, have believed.
