SEX AS IT RELATES TO WORSHIP

The relationship we have with God is compared many times as a relationship between a man and a woman. The church is God’s bride and the Lord shower the body of Christ with His love. Hebrews 13 vs 4 says that, marriage is honourable to God because it is the reflection of the union of God the Father, the Son and the Holy Spirit (Genesis 1 vs 26, And God said, Let us make man in our image, after our likeness :’). His goal for marriage is to be one with us. He wants us to experience the same type of oneness that is shared with Jesus Christ, the Holy Spirit and Himself. Therefore, we are the reflection of their image as a spirit being, but possesses a soul which resides in a body - created for God’s own pleasure – spirit, soul and body – a reflection of God, Jesus Christ and the Holy Spirit. God instituted marriage to practise the reflection of this oneness. (Genesis 2 vs 24, ‘therefore shall a man leave his father and his mother, and shall cleave unto his wife: and they shall be one flesh).
Sex was not intended to be enjoyed outside of marriage, it was made for marriage and procreation. This intimacy and oneness is what we are to enjoy first with God in trinity then with a husband or wife. Sex is an act of worship, -  you lay down your spirit, soul and body, surrendering all you are to your lover in an act that sometimes isn’t up to five minutes, exchanging blood and soul ties with all his/her past lovers in just one moment and sometimes, for someone who won’t give a thought towards you afterwards or sacrifice his/her own life for you - this intimacy was what God intended to have with His children, (Ezekiel 16 vs 8, ‘I have caused thee to multiply as the bud of the field, and thou hast increased and waxen great, and thou art come to excellent ornaments: thy breasts are fashioned, and thine hair is grown, whereas thou wast naked and bare. Now when I passed by thee, and looked upon thee, behold, thy time was the time of love; and I spread my skirt over thee, and covered thy nakedness: yea, I sware unto thee, and entered into a covenant with thee, saith the Lord GOD, and thou becamest mine).  Wisdom is profitable, don’t live carelessly anymore, (1 Peter 4vs 2 says, ‘That he no longer should live the rest of his time in the flesh to the lusts of men, but to the will of God’). When you experience the fellowship of and the communion with God, the Father, Son and the Holy Spirit what you have is an orgasm much greater than the climax of sexual intercourse. Like , Romans 12 vs 1 says, I beseech you therefore, brethren, by the mercies of God, that ye present your bodies a living sacrifice, holy, acceptable unto God, which is your reasonable service’. Serve God with your whole being, spirit, soul and body with all you are and have.
God hates adultery and fornication (Galatians 5 vs 19, Now the works of the flesh are manifest, which are these; Adultery, fornication, uncleanness, lasciviousness,’) it is a sin that is directly against God - for don’t you know that your body is the temple of God, ‘1 Corinthians 6 vs19’? This is the only sin committed against your own body. Once you commit it, the Lord turns His face away from you, for He will not behold sin. It is an abomination to the Lord. He sees it as an idolatry, harlotry and blood shed, (Ezekiel 23 vs 37, ‘That they have committed adultery, and blood is in their hands,’). The sin of fornication and adultery defiles you as God’s temple and it is an abomination, a sacrilege. 1 Corinthians 6 vs 16, asked, ‘And what agreement hath the temple of God with idols? For ye are the temple of the living God; as God hath said, I will dwell in them, and walk in them; and I will be their God, and they shall be my people’. You virtually slaughter your destiny and your seeds on its’ alter (sex), from that moment your glory shifts. You start to smell, you lose your youthfulness, beauty and even in most cases your health. You become filthy and stain with blood, (Ezekiel 24 vs 7, ‘For her blood is in the midst of her; she set it upon the top of a rock; she poured it not upon the ground, to cover it with dust ;’). You become forsaken and like a city whom no man wants to enter. You are now like a filthy rag, people talk about you and give you names. Instead of being the Lord’s pride and joy, you are now a second class citizen, (Ezekiel 16 vs 35-41, ‘Wherefore, O harlot, hear the word of the LORD: Thus saith the Lord GOD; Because thy filthiness was poured out, and thy nakedness discovered through thy whoredoms with thy lovers, and with all the idols of thy abominations, and by the blood of thy children, which thou didst give unto them; Behold, therefore I will gather all thy lovers, with whom thou hast taken pleasure, and all them that thou hast loved, with all them that thou hast hated; I will even gather them roundabout against thee, and will discover thy nakedness unto them, that they may see all thy nakedness. And I will judge thee, as women that break wedlock and shed blood are judged; and I will give thee blood in fury and jealousy.  And I will also give thee into their hand, and they shall throw down thine eminent place, and shall break down thy high places: they shall strip thee also of thy clothes, and shall take thy fair jewels, and leave thee naked and bare. They shall also bring up a company against thee, and they shall stone thee with stones, and thrust thee through with their swords. And they shall burn thine houses with fire, and execute judgments upon thee in the sight of many women: and I will cause thee to cease from playing the harlot, and thou also shalt give no hire any more’). God’s presence leaves you, (Isaiah 57 vs 15, ‘for thus saith the high and lofty One that inhabiteth eternity, whose name is Holy; I dwell in the high and holy place,). Then you get consumed in your ways/passions and forget the Lord entirely. (Isaiah 47 vs 10, ‘for thou hast trusted in thy wickedness: thou hast said, none seeth me. Thy wisdom and thy knowledge, it hath perverted thee; and thou hast said in thine heart, I am, and none else beside me’ and Isaiah 59 vs 2, says, ‘But your iniquities have separated between you and your God, and your sins have hid his face from you, that he will not hear.).
A lots of things are done in ignorance, there was no one to tell you, none to guide in the right path but today, Jesus comes into your heart, and He sits as an intercessor to intervene on behalf of the truth and right. Showing you the way to victory and righteousness. God wants to be your husband, (Isaiah 54 vs 5-14, for thy Maker is thine husband; the LORD of hosts is his name; and thy Redeemer the Holy One of Israel; The God of the whole earth shall he be called. For the LORD hath called thee as a woman forsaken and grieved in spirit, and a wife of youth, when thou wast refused, saith thy God. For a small moment have I forsaken thee; but with great mercies will I gather thee. In a little wrath I hid my face from thee for a moment; but with everlasting kindness will I have mercy on thee, saith the LORD thy Redeemer….; so have I sworn that I would not be wroth with thee, nor rebuke thee. For the mountains shall depart, and the hills be removed; but my kindness shall not depart from thee, neither shall the covenant of my peace be removed, saith the LORD that hath mercy on thee. O thou afflicted, tossed with tempest, and not comforted, behold, I will lay thy stones with fair colours, and lay thy foundations with sapphires. And I will make thy windows of agates, and thy gates of carbuncles, and all thy borders of pleasant stones….. In righteousness shalt thou be established: thou shalt be far from oppression; for thou shalt not fear: and from terror; for it shall not come near thee.‘). He wants to fill that emptiness – everywhere you thought it is a man or woman’s love that can fill it – what you were seeking for can only begotten from God your Maker. Until you are made whole, you won’t find true love. Until you return to the Lord, your emptiness can’t be fill up. He is the one you have been searching for, the only one who can fill the gap, the one who understands your make up and the only one who knows the right kind of man or woman for you. Stop searching and receive Jesus into your life. He will make you beautiful/handsome and he will marry you out to his own, (Isaiah 62 vs 3-5, says, ‘Thou shalt also be a crown of glory in the hand of the LORD, and a royal diadem in the hand of thy God. Thou shalt no more be termed Forsaken; neither shall thy land any more be termed Desolate: but thou shalt be called Hephzibah, and thy land Beulah: for the LORD delighteth in thee, and thy land shall be married. For as a young man marrieth a virgin, so shall thy sons marry thee: and as the bridegroom rejoiceth over the bride, so shall thy God rejoice over thee.’). There is a God’s choice for marriage, He has a plan and a purpose for marriage. It is the preparatory ground for the Church’s expansion.
As you come to Jesus, the blood of Jesus will clean off the blood stains, this very moment, the penalty of these sins will be blotted out by Christ’s blood that was shed. He took away the penalty when He was nailed to the cross and the Bible says, curse be any man that is hanged on the cross, ‘Galatians 3 vs 13’. So Jesus has become the curse or penalty for the sin of fornication and adultery.  Cry out with true repentance, cut off every of those soul ties and be wash by the blood of Jesus, (Ezekiel 16 vs 9, ‘Then washed I thee with water; yea, I thoroughly washed away thy blood from thee, and I anointed thee with oil.). Come into a new covenant with Jesus, (Hebrew 12 vs 22-24, ‘But ye are come unto mount Sion, and unto the city of the living God, the heavenly Jerusalem, and to an innumerable company of angels, To the general assembly and church of the firstborn, which are written in heaven, and to God the Judge of all, and to the spirits of just men made perfect, And to Jesus the mediator of the new covenant, and to the blood of sprinkling, that speaketh better things than that of Abel.’)
Be made whole!
Thank you, Jesus!

Relate And Love Your Life!
