They can use their power for either good or evil.
Motives are the deciding factor unto God
luring a man into temptation - ignoble
pleasing her husband -Noble

That applies to all of us on every level--spiritual, psychological, carnal.

Rev 19:7-8 Let us be glad and rejoice, and give honour to him: for the marriage of the Lamb is come, and his wife hath made herself ready. And to her was granted that she should be arrayed in fine linen, clean and white: for the fine linen is the righteousness of saints.
Absolutely, we must be accountable for ourselves unto Christ and be washed with the water of his word relying not on our own understanding.

The bible is true even to the faults of a man or woman of God.
Samsons experience with Delilah was an example to NOT be followed, as it led to his downfall
Just as Adams was to Eve.
What should be discerned is when one is being led to the slaughter by thinking in the flesh
...when instead one must submit to be led by the Holy Spirit...At all times.

Gods help to dicern

1 corithians 12

7
But the manifestation of the Spirit is given to every man to profit withal.

8 For to one is given by the Spirit the word of wisdom; to another the word of knowledge by the same Spirit;
9 To another faith by the same Spirit; to another the gifts of healing by the same Spirit;
10 To another the working of miracles; to another prophecy; to another discerning of spirits; to another divers kinds of tongues; to another the interpretation of tongues:
11 But all these worketh that one and the selfsame Spirit, dividing to every man severally as he will.

Both people are allowed to choose whom they wish to be with, it is not necessarily arranged.
And then you make it work with Gods principles and leadership with actions backing your faith.
Love is an action coupled with emotions, not strictly a feeling toward someone.
God shows he loves us, by what he did for us in sacrificing his son for our better good.
He also shows he loves us as his children in disciplining us when it is for our better good.
he also shows he loves us by being a just God and not going back on his own words.
The motives behind his reasons motivate the resulting actions in a manifestation of his Love, and are also dependant upon our submission and obedience to him.
If Faith without works is dead
I would also assert that love without actions behind it is also dead.

If only everyone will do this hmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmm

There is a great story of a man who was Abraham's servant who Abraham sent back to his homeland to get a bride for his son, Isaac. Abraham gives this man ten camel loads of wealth to purchase a bride for Abraham's son, the "bride's price." He is trusted by Abraham. The man is just a servant and has no wealth of his own! Yet, off he goes for hundreds of miles with a king's ransom and no supervision to pick out a wife for Isaac. When he gets there he falls down on his face and cries out to God that he might do right in his choosing the right woman for his master's son. He puts forth a test and Rebekah, the wife to be, passes the it in flying colors. The servant gives all the wealth to Rebekah and her father and takes her back to Isaac, God had given his master's son a chosen bride.

WHAT ARE 3 WAYS WE DREAM ?
Deen islam -Dreams in Islam

"Abu Hurayrah narrated Muhammad (S) said, "There are three types of dreams: a righteous dream which is glad tidings from Allah, the dream which causes sadness is from Shaitan, and a dream from the ramblings of the mind. (Sahih Muslim)"

There is more than one possibility for this situation.
I mentioned that marriage was not necessarily arranged...in some yes but not in all situations.
You mentioned Samson, the first wife he chose he saw her and simply told his parents, bring her to me.
He, this man of God was allowed to choose.
In some situations it is a consolation.
If one is stumbling or acting improperly toward one they are engaged to but not yet married, what does the bible suggest the better alternative is than to burn with passion?
Wait
Or Marry
Or if a widow brings judgement upon herself for allowing her sensual desires to overcome her dedication to Christ, what is she permitted to do as a consolation for having broken her first pledge?
Burn with passion?
Or Marry?
God can and will lead two people together that are suitable,
as well one is allowed to even marry an unbeliever, though that is not using much wisdom.
Just when you think you've got it all figured out...Think again. ;)

The devil is the serpent...

Rev 12:9 And the great dragon was thrown down, the serpent of old who is called the devil and Satan, ... (NASB)

...who is male:

Gen 3:1 Now the serpent was more crafty than any beast of the field which the Lord God had made. And he said to the woman, “Indeed, has God said, ‘You shall not eat from any tree of the garden’?” (NASB)

The translation of "he said" in Gen 3:1 is a direct translation of the Hebrew: http://www.scripture4all.org/OnlineInterlinear/OTpdf/gen3.pdf

dreams come from God
dreams come from oneself or concscience
dreams come from the devil
