Glorify God in your bodyBelievers are bought with a price, meaning our bodies belong to God the Father, the Holy Spirit, and Jesus Christ, and we must glorify Him in them.
Our body is not for sinful pleasuresOur physical bodies are not meant for illegal or immoral sexual pleasures, unrighteousness, or gluttony.
The deception of Satan and the cup of demonsJust as there is the cup of the Lord, believers who indulge in pornography and filthy media are drinking from the cup of demons offered in the world's banquet hall.
Satan's tactic of offering tasty wine firstLike the worldly system or Samson's temptation with Delilah, Satan offers tasty pleasures and riches first before leading people to bitterness and destruction.
The anointing breaks the yokeThe only true solution to overcome these traps is the anointing of the Holy Spirit, confession of sin, and allowing God to set us free.
The three levels of the fear of God in JobJob maintained a strict covenant with his eyes not to lust after a maid, operating out of a deep reverence for the majesty of God.
Lifting holy hands without wrath or dissensionHusbands must not use their hands for unrighteousness, anger, or domestic abuse; instead, they must lift holy hands in prayer.
Maintaining a clean conscience and integrityBelievers must not bend their consciences or engage in deception, such as lying on job experience certificates.
Modesty and avoiding worldly adornmentSisters should avoid the pride and external vanity of the daughters of Zion, covering modestly rather than exposing their bodies to the world.
Refusing hypocrisy and deception in relationshipsWe must not hide the truth or use deceit like Photoshop to alter appearances, because our bodies are for the Lord.
Our body is not for gluttonyThose whose god is their appetite and who hurt their family members over food are worshiping their belly rather than God.Philippians 3:19
Jesus as our example of balanceThough Jesus knew how to fast and sleep on a mountain when homeless, He was balanced and not enslaved to extremes or luxury, living solely to do the will of the Father.
