How To Handle Sexual Feelings(Conclusion).. By Samson Ajilore..

 Purity Is Power!

Finally Let There Be None Among Us Who Profess Christ Who Will Go About And Defraud His Or Her Fellow Brethren, Don’t Take Advantage Of A Sister Or Brother By Allowing The Devil To Use You To Seduce Them Or Lure Them Into Sexual Sin. “For This Is The Will Of God, Your Sanctification: That You Should Abstain From Sexual Immorality; That Each Of You Should Know How To Possess His Own Vessel In Sanctification And Honor, Not In Passion Of Lust, Like The Gentiles Who Do Not Know God; That No One Should Take Advantage Of And Defraud His Brother In This Matter, Because The Lord Is The Avenger Of All Such, As We Also Forewarned You And Testified” (1Thes. 4:3-6 NKJV). 

We Must Not Yield Our Body As Instruments Of Unrighteousness But We Must Learn To Keep Our Passions Under Control. This Is One Of The Reasons We Should Be Careful We Do Not Dress In Sexually Suggestive Ways But In Modesty And Godliness. The Holy Spirit Has Come To Enable Us To Do So, That’s Why We Are Commanded To Do So. God Will Not Command Us To Do What We Don’t Have The Ability To Do. If We Do Not Judge Ourselves God Will Judge Us.

There Is Abundance Of Grace For Those Who Have Fallen Because Jesus Christ Is Our Lawyer And High Priest Before The Father, So We Can

Come Boldly To The Throne Of Grace And Obtain Mercy. However, We Shouldn’t Get Complacent And Relaxed In Sin. There Are Those Of Us Who Are Struggling With One Sin Or The Other But There Are Also Those Who Have Given Up In The Strive Against Sin. This Is What Paul Whom I Believe To Be The Author Of Hebrews Was Talking About When He Said, “You Have Not Yet Resisted To Bloodshed, Striving Against Sin” (Hebrew 12:4 NKJV)

Keep Your Eyes On Jesus Not On Your Sins Or Sexual Feelings:

“Therefore We Also, Since We Are Surrounded By So Great A Cloud Of Witnesses, Let Us Lay Aside Every Weight, And The Sin Which So Easily Ensnares Us, And Let Us Run With Endurance The Race That Is Set Before Us, Looking Unto Jesus, The Author And Finisher Of Our Faith, Who For The Joy That Was Set Before Him Endured The Cross, Despising The Shame, And Has Sat Down At The Right Hand Of The Throne Of God”  (Hebrews 12:1-2 NKJV).

                               

There Are Those Who Have Run This Race Of Christianity Before Us And We Are Not Faced With Any Temptation Today Which They Did Not Face. These People Have Gone From Glory To Glory And They Are Now Like Spectators, Cheering Us As We Run Or Own Our Race. Now, We Must Be Careful To Lay Aside Every Weight Of Sin Because As Spiritual Athletes, Sin Is A Burden That Can Really Slow Us Down If We Give Ourselves To Be Controlled By It. 

We Have Victory Over Sin In Christ Because The Law Of The Spirit Of Life In Christ Has Made Us Free From The Law Of Sin And Death (Rom.8:1-2) So, We Shouldn’t Keep Our Focus On Sin But On Christ And His Perfection Because He Is The Author And Finisher Of Our Faith; He Is The One Who Sets Us Out In The Faith Walk And He Is The One Who Will Perfect Us In That Race. Whatever Has Your Attention Rules Your Life So, Don’t Give Your Attention To Your Weaknesses, Give It To Christ And You Will Rise Above Your Challenges.

Christ Intercedes For Us Each Day And He Is Able To Protect Us To The Very End Because Of His Never Ceasing Intercession For Us. “But He, Because He Continues Forever, Has An Unchangeable Priesthood. Therefore He Is Also Able To Save To The Uttermost Those Who Come To God Through Him, Since He Always Lives To Make Intercession For Them. For Such A High Priest Was Fitting For Us, Who Is Holy, Harmless, Undefiled, Separate From Sinners, And Has Become Higher Than The Heavens”(Heb. 7:24-26 NKJV).

We Shouldn’t Be Afraid Of A Fall But We Should Concentrate On The Lord, Feed And Walk In His Word And Trust In His Boundless Love To Carry Us Through. He Loves Us Too Much To Let Us Fall Away. “Now To Him Who Is Able To Keep You From Stumbling, And To Present You Faultless Before The Presence Of His Glory With Exceeding Joy, To God Our Savior, Who Alone Is Wise, Be Glory And Majesty, Dominion And Power, Both Now And Forever. Amen.” (Jude 1:24-25 NKJV). Thank God He Is Able To Keep Us From Falling And Present Us Faultless Before The Father In The End Of All Things. His Grace Is Sufficient For Us And His Strength Is Made Perfect In Our Weaknesses (2 Cor.12:9).

THE END..
