DO NOT SHARE IT WITH STRANGERS

Proverbs5:16 Why spill the water of your springs in the streets, having sex with just anyone?17 You should reserve it for yourselves (Couples). Never share it with strangers. NLT. Emphasis mine

A lady called in to a programme on radio, she was asked why young ladies prefer to date married men, she said 'married men know how to care for women than single men'. That's a strange woman. If you ask some married men why they flirt around with young girls, you'll hear a response like 'if you eat a particular type of soup daily, you'll become tired so you need to have a different taste'.

Our society has legalized immorality indirectly, my people believe that a man can flirt around with women because it is normal for men to do so but I want to tell you that sin is not normal. If you're sexually active with a woman or man that you're not married to, such a fellow is a stranger in your life. Delilah was the stranger in Samson's life and after she accomplished her mission, Samson was left empty.

Sexual immorality starts with harmless intimacy which may involve sending of text, visit, unsual body and eye contact. If you're entangled already, please stop. The consequences of immorality isn't worth the enjoyment, Solomon thought he was being kingly when he married plenty women but those strange women made his heart drift from God. If not for the sure mercies of David, God would have torn the kingdom during his time but the punishment for his sins came into effect under his successor.

You are not pure until you are sexually pure( Rev Olusola Areogun).

Action point

Father, deliver me from every entanglement to the sin of sexual immorality In Jesus name.
