6 For which things’ sake the wrath of God cometh on the children of disobedience:.
BIBLE IN ONE YEAR: Numbers 8-10; Mark 5:1-20
MESSAGE:
Today, we will consider a different aspect of defilement. Some people claim to be undefiled, yet, they engage in sexual acts other than sex itself. One of such acts is masturbation. Some people are of the opinion that it was not mentioned in the Bible, therefore, it is not wrong. My child, masturbation is an ungodly act that should not be practised by any true child of God. Can anyone boldly put his or her bed in an open space and masturbate? No, instead, it is done in secret when nobody is watching. Anything done in secret is darkness and sinful. In fact, the Bible says woe unto them who do things in the dark (Isaiah 29:15).
Another reason is those who masturbate do it while having sexual fantasies which are usually as a result of watching pornography. Should a child of God watch pornography? No (Psalm 101:3). In addition, masturbation brings guilt. There is usually this guilty feeling that immediately robs those who do it of their peace after the act. If it is right, why feel guilty? To be undefiled is to be pure within and without. Shun this ungodly act. Be pure.
PRAYER POINT:
Father, help me to be pure within and without.
HYMN 19: WHAT CAN WASH AWAY MY STAIN
- What can wash away my stain?
Nothing but the blood of Jesus;
What can make me whole again?
Nothing but the blood of Jesus.
Chorus:
Oh! precious is the flow
That makes me white as snow!
No other fount I know, .
Nothing but the blood of Jesus.
2.For my cleansing this I see –
Nothing but the blood of Jesus;
For my pardon this my plea –
Nothing but the blood of Jesus.
3.Nothing can for sin atone,
Nothing but the blood of Jesus:
Naught of good that I have done,
Nothing but the blood of Jesus.
4.This is all my hope and peace.
Nothing but the blood of Jesus:
His is all my righteousness
Nothing but the blood of Jesus.
