Repent of your sins and let the old you be buried and be raised up a new creature in Christ (Acts 2:38; Acts 3:19; 2 Corinthians 5:17)
- Fornication
1 Corinthians 6:9-10
Know ye not that the unrighteous shall not inherit the kingdom of God? Be not deceived: neither fornicators, nor idolaters, nor adulterers, nor effeminate, nor abusers of themselves with mankind,
Nor thieves, nor covetous, nor drunkards, nor revilers, nor extortioners, shall inherit the kingdom of God.
Ephesians 5:3,5-6
But fornication, and all uncleanness, or covetousness, let it not be once named among you, as becometh saints;
For this ye know, that no whoremonger, nor unclean person, nor covetous man, who is an idolater, hath any inheritance in the kingdom of Christ and of God.
Let no man deceive you with vain words: for because of these things cometh the wrath of God upon the children of disobedience.
1 Corinthians 6:18-20
Flee fornication. Every sin that a man doeth is without the body; but he that committeth fornication sinneth against his own body.
What? know ye not that your body is the temple of the Holy Ghost which is in you, which ye have of God, and ye are not your own?
For ye are bought with a price: therefore glorify God in your body, and in your spirit, which are God's.
1 Corinthians 6:13-17
Meats for the belly, and the belly for meats: but God shall destroy both it and them. Now the body is not for fornication, but for the Lord; and the Lord for the body.
And God hath both raised up the Lord, and will also raise up us by his own power.
Know ye not that your bodies are the members of Christ? shall I then take the members of Christ, and make them the members of an harlot? God forbid.
What? know ye not that he which is joined to an harlot is one body? for two, saith he, shall be one flesh.
But he that is joined unto the Lord is one spirit.
Galatians 5:19-21
Now the works of the flesh are manifest, which are these; Adultery, fornication, uncleanness, lasciviousness,
Idolatry, witchcraft, hatred, variance, emulations, wrath, strife, seditions, heresies,
Envyings, murders, drunkenness, revellings, and such like: of the which I tell you before, as I have also told you in time past, that they which do such things shall not inherit the kingdom of God.
CONFESS AND REPENT OF YOUR SIN OF FORNICATION RIGHT NOW AT THIS HERE MOMENT. PRAY FOR GOD'S STRENGTH AND WISDOM TO BE IN YOU, AND GO AND SIN NO MORE.
You will face one temptation or another, but understand, as told in 1 Corinthians 10:13, that we are able to overcome it, and with any temptation, God, who is faithful, will also provide us a way
to escape. Take the escape! Take the exit immediately and don't go back. It may be a random phone call or text, it may be your coat getting caught on the door, your TV or music stops working or God uses someone on there to give you a message, or some random thing disrupts the moment, etc. It may be a thought, or a moment of strength, or a scripture verse coming to mind,
may be anything, because God is creative. It will often look like a coincidence, but it is a way of escape. Take the exit, because there is not promised a second chance to escape the temptation. So escape the temptation as soon as possible, even if it doesn't look like the cool or
nice thing to do. Run for your life. And be wise to steer away from situations likely to lead to temptation in the future.
Stay free from that which the Lord has freed you from when you turned to Him. "For if I build again the things which I destroyed, I make myself a transgressor." -Galatians 2:18
Read 2 Peter 1:1-11 and do verses 5-7.
