EFFECTS OF SEXUAL SINS
Memorise: Free fornication. Every sin that a man doeth is without
the body; but he that committeth fornication sinneth against his own body 1
Corinthians 6:18
Read: Judges 16:16-21
Alter his hair was shaved, Samson thought of arising like in
times past to stir up the Spirit, but little did he know that the Holy Spirit
had left him. It was acrobatics without power. It was motion without unction.
It was al! noise without the Noise Maker. The wheat had gone and al I that was
left was the chaff! Sexual sins are great robbers! Samson lost so much to
sexual sin. When he fornicated with a harlot and the anointing was still there
to uproot the city gate of the enemy, he thought nothing was lost (Judges
16:1-3). But a lot had gone even as at that time. This is the deception of sin.
When you sin and it appears all is still well, you will be tempted to continue
in sin thinking all will remain well. If you do, you would have been deceived.
There are many pastors, evangelists, prophets, teachers and even apostles today
who are living in sexual immorality and because they still feel the anointing
in some measure or still hear from God or are still able to perform their
assignments well, they think all they have is intact. No! They have lost a lot!
By the time Samson got to Delilah in Judges 16:4-21, what the
first prostitute started, Delilah completed and he was totally drained. A man
of God who had slept with some sisters observed that after fornicating with
them, certain gifts of God upon his life ebbed while those gifts were later
developing in those two ladies. Those you are sleeping with are stealing your
power, although sometimes, what they took out of the fornicating leader could
also cause great harm in their own lives and families. A time will come when
the fornicator will be totally empty. Through fornication, your sex partners
are shaving your hair - your anointing. Soon, you will also lose your eyes -
spiritual sight. A blind leader is a useless one because he will end up in the
ditch. As a fornicating pastor, you are in bondage to the ladies you are
sinning with as the fear of being reported to your superiors will push you
further into that pit. Also, you can no more preach holiness whenever they are
around. You are also in bondage to your enemies and you will end up working for
the devil if you do not repent (Judges 16:21). All your gains in ministry could
disappear because of sexual immorality! Repent today!
PRAYER POINT
Father, uproot and roast every iota of immorality and lust
operating or hibernating in my life.
