TOPIC: THE OUTPUT OF YOUR HEART 6: Lust For Opposite Sex.

MEMORY VERSE: 
Proverbs 4:23.
“23. Keep thy heart with all diligence; for out of it are the issues of life.”

BIBLE READING:
James 1:13-15.
“13. Let no man say when he is tempted, I am tempted of God: for God cannot be tempted with evil, neither tempteth he any man:
14. But every man is tempted, when he is drawn away of his own lust, and enticed.
15. Then when lust hath conceived, it bringeth forth sin: and sin, when it is finished, bringeth forth death.
Matthew 15:19.
“19. For out of the heart proceed evil thoughts, murders, ADULTERIES, FORNICATIONS, thefts, false witness, blasphemies:.
Lust for opposite sex is another output of our heart. One can’t keep the eyes closed while moving around, either married or unmarried, but when we have control over the thoughts of our heart, temptation to lust over opposite sex will be defeated with the Help of Holy Spirit. Fornication and adultery is another product which has reck havoc on believers and the world generally. 
What is Fornication?
Fornication–now more commonly referred to as premarital sex–is when two unmarried individuals engage in sexual intercourse. Sex before marriage is now very rampart among youth across the globe.
What is Adultery?
This is a voluntary sexual intercourse between a married person and someone other than that person’s current spouse or partner, either married or unmarried. We can hear these happening around us daily, married person having an affair with different spouse or unmarried.
The most common thing about the two is, they are generated from the thought within us, they were a thought which took control of the body.
Apostle James said, God is not the tempter but we are being tempted into those acts through our thought; what we think and what we allowed into our heart. We lusting over what’s not ours, which is not being able to control the thought of our heart. Many gives excuses for indulging in any of these acts but this is the truth, the thought of our heart need to be changed before we can realised that, we were being controlled by lust. Where is your thought guiding you to and what is dominating your heart? It’s time to tell yourself the truth and resist every thought towards fornicating or adultery, they are sin against Almighty God. Have control over the thought of your heart and your life will be pleasing to God.
God Bless you and Good Morning.
Happy Birthday to all celebrants and Happy Wedding Anniversary to those celebrating today. May you experience God’s fruitfulness in Jesus Mighty name, Amen.
