Scripture Reading: Genesis 34: 1-2.
Memory verse for the week: Job 14:7
“For there is hope for a tree, If it is cut down, that it will sprout again, And that its tender shoots will not cease.”(NKJV)
SCRIPTURAL WISDOM ON HOW TO AVOID BEING RAPED
- Be careful of those you call your friends especially if you haven’t known them for too long.
- Be assertive. There is no need to be polite when anyone is making unwanted sexual advances. Firmly tell the person “No”. Learn to say no!
- Keep personal information private. Be wary of meeting with anyone whom you met on the internet.
- Always keep your phone charged. It could be your saving grace someday.
- Don’t dress seductively. Why would you want to attract potential rapist by your dressing?
- Yell “police”, “fire” (or whatever your local emergency number is). This could attract help from a passer-by if you are waylaid.
- Above all always cover yourself with the blood of Jesus. If it is not the Lord who watches over the city, the guards are wasting their time Psalm 127:1(ERV)
ACTION WORD: WISDOM IS THE PRINCIPAL THING.
PRAYER POINT:
- I shall not be a victim of any unfortunate circumstances, in the name of Jesus.
- Every foundation of rape in my ancestry, catch fire, in the name of Jesus.
