TOPIC: GET RID OF LUST
NOVEMBER Wednesday 14th
TEXT: Genesis 39: 4-12
KEY VERSE: But I say unto you, that whosoever looketh on a woman to lust after her hath committed adultery with her already in his heart. Matthew 5: 28
Lust is a corrupt and immoral desire in the heart of a man or woman towards the opposite sex. It may start with appreciating the natural character, beauty, talent and the composure of the person. This may grow into desiring to be in the company of that opposite sex often, to see, look at and interact with that person. This also goes with impure thoughts and a strong desire for sex. Lust may lie hidden in the heart unknown to the other. It may also manifest openly in word and action. Lust is a strong satanic force that destroys Christian purity and damns the soul of the unwatchful in hell fire. It is promoted by the indecent dressing and nakedness on the streets, offices, and schools. It is also promoted by pornography, blue films, indecent shows on the television and unnatural closeness between men and women.
The spirit of lust is strong and compelling. It requires violent and practical approach to overcome it. Flee fornication. Joseph had to flee from Potiphar’s wife. Faith in Christ for His salvation and persistent spiritual warfare against the thoughts and forces of lust will certainly deliver you. Sometimes you may need to confide in some mature Christians for assistance in counselling and prayers. Use the word of God; the name of Jesus; the blood of Jesus; confession of faith; prayer and fasting; and spiritual discipline for your victory in this battle. Every true believer everywhere is engaged in the battle of holiness and heaven. Lay hold on eternal life and fight the good fight of faith as a youth, a single Christian, or a married person, a widow or widower, even a physically challenged person. The cloud of lust covering your mind shall certainly roll away in Jesus name, Amen.
Thought for the day: pray without ceasing
Song for the day: Holiness unto the Lord is our watchword and song...
Bible reading for the day:
Ezekiel 7-9; Hebrews 10:24-39
