Bible Reading: 1st Corinthians 6:15-20.

Memory Verse: Flee fornication. Every sin that a man doeth is without the body; but he that committeth fornication sinneth against his own body. 1st Corinthians 6:18

The scripture tells us that our body is the temple of the Almighty God. This is to let us know how important our body is to the Almighty God. God dwells in you. Can you imagine that Divinity lives inside of you? As Christians, our bodies are the extension of Christ in this world. This is why we are being admonished not to conform to this world.

All sins are against the Almighty God. Some sins are against those around us when we engage in certain acts, but the sin of fornication is destruction against one’s own body.

Your body is a tool entrusted into your hands by the Almighty God and everyone will give account of what they do with their body. Your body was entrusted to your care by God. The moment a person gives his live to Christ, Jesus Christ becomes the owner and Lord of such a live. Every part of your body becomes a tool in His hand. Your eyes, hands, legs, tongue, nose and every organ of your body becomes His. You can no longer sin with your body; you can no longer walk in the company of the ungodly. You can no longer taste alcohol, Indian hemp, smoke cigarettes, cocaine etc. Your hands become clean for His glory alone. You are no longer the owner of your body. You are only the owner of something that you created. You did not create your body. 

There are different kinds of teachers today who trivialize some things that God has a great disgust for. You cannot play with fire and not have your fingers burnt. Are you the leader of a group and you are abusing the bodies of those God has put in your care? Are you an executive in the fellowship and you are sleeping around with the sisters? Are you single but becoming so impatient that you have started doing what is reserved for married people? You are looking for the ‘Consuming Fire’. You can be sure you will not be able to withstand the consequences. I want you to make up your mind this moment that enough is enough on every unholy relationship and affair against God’s temple – Your body.

Quote: The fastest way to destiny destruction is fornication/ adultery.

Prophetic Word: Receive the spirit of self-control, in Jesus name.

Prayer Point:

Father, I repent of my sins of fornication/adultery. Help me to honour you daily with my body, in Jesus name. Deliver me from lust, demonic covenant, curses and evil foundational spirit that wage war against my soul. Write my name in the Book of life and prepare me for Your heavenly kingdom, in Jesus name. Now, I’m born again, in Jesus mighty name I pray.
