Bible Reading: Genesis 39: 11-12
Memory Verse: Abstain from every form of evil [withdraw and keep away from it]. 1 Thessalonians 5:22 (AMP)
The best strategy to deploy in the face of sexual temptation is to avoid it before it comes! Don’t let spiritual pride make you overate yourself. A wise man once said humorously, “Don’t walk gallantly in regions where even angels walk cautiously”. Why resist when the Bible says flee? That lady sending wrong signals to you. That brother sending wrong signals to you. He offered to carry your bag after choir practice and wouldn’t give you back until he/she entered into your house.
Friend, are you so naive? All transactions should end before you open your gate. Set boundaries. Don’t think you can handle it. Emotions are powerful weapon. The closer you are to anyone who is not your spouse, the more vulnerable you could become. Why stay when you should run? Samson stayed and became staled. Emotions can overpower knowledge in the face of intense sexual temptation.
Pastors have fallen, group leaders have fallen, bosses have fallen, boys and girls have fallen. Be warned. Take guard. Let him that thinks he stands take heed lest he falls (1 Corinthians 10:12). By ourselves, our strength is feeble. Only Jesus makes the difference in us. Never you take grace for granted if you do not want to bury the future. Remain rapturable.
EVANGELISM IS GOD’S HEARTBEAT.
BE A PART OF THIS.
