It’s easy to not have sex with anyone when you’re not dating. I stayed sexually pure for many years while I was waiting for God to bring me to my husband. Then, it happened. I met the man I was going to marry.
We met at a Christians United for Israel meeting in Washington, D.C. Honestly, I really wasn’t romantically attracted to him at all. It was just good fun and fellowship with a few fellow believers.
Then we started conversing on the phone long distance, and one thing led to another when we met in person again. Let’s just sat all of my constraint went out the window as I was swept off my feet.
Come on, I know it’s happened to you, too. You had great intentions to honor God with your body until you met him.
What is this conditioning that lures so well the child of God into sexual sin? Is the hook that invisible? The bait that tasty or shall I say FINE!
Whatever the case, he’s not worth it. The pain, the shame, the loss, the disappointment, and especially the separation from your Heavenly Father is not worth a few minutes or even an hour of sex.
Think about it. Why are you having sex anyway? Are you getting to know him? Well, I’m here to tell you that you don’t have to have sex with him to get to know him. In fact, sexual sin could misconstrue your desire to get to know him better in so many ways.
Instead, why don’t you take your time, do it right, God’s way, instead of doing it all night with a man you’re not married to.
Father God loves you and doesn’t want to see you heartbroken, alone and bitter. That’s the road of sexual sin, a lonely, bitter road of regret.
