Sexual Desires

Sexual desires

Many people suffer with the sexual effects of the body, haven been programmed by Satan’s worldly ways of thinking this has been trouble for many people for it is written, “ such shall have trouble in the flesh.” 1st Corinthians 7:28

Through the Word of God we can find comfort and direction concerning the thing, which many of us call natural behavior.

Is it natural for people to act like animals during mating season; is it natural for two adults or two children to indulge is sexual behavior not being married one to another?

The Bible says, “The body is not for fornication but for the Lord and the Lord for the body.” 1st Corinthians 6:13

But the Bible let’s us know that it was predicted that this problem would increase after each generation for it is written, “In the last days perilous times shall come, men will become lovers of pleasures more than lovers of God.” 2nd Timothy 3: 1-4

To avoid the wide spreading effects of Satan’s way of thinking, “ we are to present our bodies as a living sacrifice, holy and acceptable unto God, which is our reasonable service.” Romans 12:1

If we began wanting to have sex out of wedlock and become too curious about sex then we are to get married because sex is only permitted to the married for it is written,
“In marriage all is honorable and the bedroom is undefiled: but whoremongers and adulterers God will judge.” Hebrews 13:4

It is not God’s desire that every man or woman is to be married for it is written, “to the unmarried and widows, it is good for them if they stay single but if they cannot contain their sexual desires let them marry, for it is better to marry than to burn.” 1st Corinthians 7:8-9

And again, “It is good for a man not to touch a woman. nevertheless to avoid fornication let every man have his own wife and let every woman have her own husband. Let the husband render unto the wife due benevolence and likewise also the wife unto the husband.” 1st Corinthians 7: 1-3

It was never intended for people to look upon one another as sex objects this was inputted by Satan’s worldly way of thinking, for Jesus says, “ who so ever looks on a woman to lust after her has committed adultery with her already in his heart.” Matthew 5:28

From the time we were born Satan has been programming us through the television, family members, classmates, co-workers, religious organization, and so much more.

The word sex or the word sexy is not in the Bible, yet there are magazines and contest for the sexiest people alive.

What does the word sexy mean? If the word sex means to indulge in intercourse with someone does the word sexy mean that it is a person who you would like to have intercourse with?

We are not slaves to our flesh bodies for it is written, “ let not sin reign in your mortal body, that you should obey it in the lust there of, neither yield your members as instruments of unrighteousness unto sin.” Romans 6:12-13

We are not to indulge in acts of sexual behavior while unmarried no matter what they say is accepted in this world for it is written, “ abstain from fornication, you should know how to possess your vessel in sanctification and honor.” 1st Thessalonians 4:3-4

We all belong to God and having sex out of wedlock is not the way of God for it is written, “ know you not that your bodies are the members of Christ, shall you then take the members of Christ and make them the members of an harlot? 1st Corinthians 6:15

Ladies you are jeopardizing your souls when you are sleeping with these men.

Gentle men you are jeopardizing your souls when you are sleeping with these ladies.

For it is written, “ know you not that the unrighteous shall not inherit the kingdom of God? Be not deceived no fornicators shall inherit the kingdom of God.” 1st Corinthians 6:9-10

So the next time you find yourself being stimulated by your sexual desirers I suggest that you remember what the apostle Paul said, “ I keep under my body and bring it into subjection: lest that by any means, when I have preached to others, I myself should be a castaway.

Wake up people, from the deception of Satan, break the cycle of letting your flesh rule.

Until next time I love you,
