SEX SACREDNESS: ENACTING THE COVENANT OF MARRIAGE!<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n

Sex they say – is it of God? Yes it is of God. It’s\na godly, pleasurable act in enacting the covenant of marriage. It’s intent is\nmore than just for pleasure and procreation purpose. However, knowingly or\nunknowingly, it has DIVINE purpose and implications in LIFE AND GRACE. Hence\ndon’t fall into the hands of God’s anger which could be a scare all your life.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

In accessing Sex outside the marital context is not\njust about or called SIN only, it thus hinders the ACT to ENACT the DIVINE\nplans, purposes and pursuits in ones life and the effectual walk with God in\nGRACE and Life in everyway if you intend to have God as your defence, otherwise\ndefenceless.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

IT’S A CHOICE OF LIFE: IT’S EITHER YOU GIVE IN FOR: SELF GRATIFICATION OR FOR DIVINE INTENT IN ONES LIFE IN GRACE AND GODLY LIVING.<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n

If you intend achieving the DIVINE INTENT therefore,\nthen FLEW from all its appearances at any form or formats and PATIENTLY WAIT\nfor your marital set time in grace; and if married, dignify your marital\ncovenant of grace and abscond from extramarital acts and abuses. COLOUR YOUR\nWORLDS IN CHRIST JESUS IN PURITY OF HEARTS, THOUGHTS AND IN ACTS.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

THEREFORE: SELAH – PAUSE AND THINK!<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n

“Now, getting down to the questions you asked in your letter to me. First, Is it a good thing to have sexual relations? 2-6 Certainly\u2014but only within a certain context. It\u2019s good for a man to have a wife, and for a woman to have a husband. Sexual drives are strong, but marriage is strong enough to contain them and provide for a balanced and fulfilling sexual life in a world of sexual disorder. The marriage bed must be a place of mutuality\u2014the husband seeking to satisfy his wife, the wife seeking to satisfy her husband. Marriage is not a place to \u201cstand up for your rights.\u201d Marriage is a decision to serve the other, whether in bed or out. Abstaining from sex is permissible for a period of time if you both agree to it, and if it\u2019s for the purposes of prayer and fasting\u2014but only for such times. Then come back together again. Satan has an ingenious way of tempting us when we least expect it. I\u2019m not, understand, commanding these periods of abstinence\u2014only providing my best counsel if you should choose them”<\/em> 1 Corinthians 7:1\u20146 (Message Bible – MSG).<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n

“Honour marriage, and guard the sacredness of sexual intimacy between wife and husband. God draws a firm line against casual and illicit sex” <\/em>Hebrews 13:4 (Message Bible – MSG).<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n
