Scripture Reading: 1 Cor.6:9-20.

Memory verse for the week: Lev. 6:13

‘And the fire on the altar shall be kept burning on it; it shall not be put out. And the priest shall burn wood on it every morning, and lay the burnt offering in order on it; and he shall burn on it the fat of the peace offerings.’ (NKJV)

Two young ladies arrived at a meeting wearing clothes that were quite revealing their body parts. Here is what the chairman of the occasion told them. He took a good look at them and made them sit. Then he said something that they may never forget in their life. “Ladies, everything that God made valuable in this world are well covered and hard to see, find and get.”

“Where do you find diamonds? Deep down in the ground, covered and protected. Where do you find pearls? Deep down at the bottom of the ocean, covered up and well protected in a beautiful shell. Where do you find gold? Way down in the mine, covered over with layers of rock and to get them, you have to work hard and dig deep down to get them. He looked at them with serious eyes and said, ‘Your body is sacred and unique’. You are far more precious than gold, diamonds and pearls, and you should be well covered too.”

So he added that, “If you keep your treasured mineral just like gold , diamond, and pearls, deeply covered up, a reputable mining organization with the requisite machinery will fly down and conduct years of extensive exploration. First, they will contact your government (family), sign professional contracts (wedding) and mine you professionally (legal marriage). But, if you leave your precious minerals uncovered on the surface of the earth, you always attract a lot of illegal miners to come mine you illegally, everybody will just pick up their crude instruments and just have a dig on you just freely like that, keep your bodies deeply covered so that it invites professional miners to chase you.”

ACTION WORD: STOP THOSE SKIMPY, NUDE CLOTHES.

PRAYER POINT:

  1. I shall not defile my body, the temple of the living God, in the name of Jesus.
  2. Affinity with the world in my heart, die by fire, in the name of Jesus.
