Message of the Day: Sex is the preserve of marital life and between the lawfully married.
Sex outside marriage and outside them that had exchanged marital vows is
unlawful and contrary to God’s purpose. Fornicators and adulterers God shall
judge. No fornicator or adulterer shall inherit the Kingdom of God. Immorality
had no place in the agenda of God. Sex outside marriage and outside married
partners is submission to bestial life. The nature of dogs must not be carried
into sexual life. Sex is strictly for the married who had exchanged marital
vows.
Sex is sacred. It is beautiful. It is
highly pleasurable. It is of God. It must not be abused or misused. It is a
pleasure of depth spanning the married life. It is pleasure of precedence to
procreation. Immediately Sarah was told of impending fruit of the womb, she
knew that sex as pleasure would be involved. Even in old age Sarah was
conscious of the good and great pleasure sex in marriage carries. Sarah laughed
as the encounter reminded her of deepness of interaction with her long time
husband. Therefore Sarah laughed within herself, saying, After I am waxed old
shall I have pleasure, my lord being old also? Genesis 18:12
Let mortals know that sex involves
the soul, the spirit and the body and must not be abused. Abuse of this God
ordained and formulated unparalleled pleasure is a sin against self. It is time
for all involved in illegal sex to repent. And the times of this ignorance God
winked at; but now commandeth all men everywhere to repent: Acts 17:30
Sex is part of the sweetness of
marriage. The Bible endorsed marriage as one means to avoid fornication. Sex
brings into one flesh in marriage. It is an interaction that removes shame of
nakedness. Only the shameless would get into it outside marriage. Sex is due
benevolence in marriage. It is God’s gift before the gift of the fruit of the
womb, it is gift to one another in marriage. Timing is important and is
mutually and understandably promoted as pertains to sex in marriage. One
because of spiritual commitment and the timing related to circles of fertility
or ovulation particularly when couples are set to have children. Ovulation
circle should be known and sex should be approached with duty of care to retain
early conception lest there be avoidable repeated abortions that rough or
rigorous sex can occasion in some women expecting fruit of the womb. See sex in
Marriage 2.
Sex in marriage promotes love,
affection, deepness as it become clear to both that you are relating to one
another as you cannot relate to any outside the sacred institution of marriage.
Consider this biblical advice in lawful marriage: Let her be as the loving hind
and pleasant roe; let her breasts satisfy thee at all times; and be thou
ravished always with her love. Proverbs
5:19.
From You to God: O Lord my God, let sex outside marriage be never mentioned of me in
Jesus name.
Application: Sex
is rough, wrong, dirty, ungodly and leadeth to hell outside marriage.
Foot Note:
Marriage bed is too sacred to be defiled.
