The Game is Life

WK 5: Sexual Healing

Pastor Larry Davis

When we Divorce God from Sex:

We destroy HIS IDEA.

We practice sexual IDOLATRY.

We meet our NEED because of our GREED.

1 Now for the matters you wrote about: It is good for a man not to marry. 2 But since there is so much immorality, each man should have his own wife, and each woman her own husband. 3 The husband should fulfill his marital duty to his wife, and likewise the wife to her husband. 4 The wife’s body does not belong to her alone but also to her husband. In the same way, the husband’s body does not belong to him alone but also to his wife. 5 Do not deprive each other except by mutual consent and for a time, so that you may devote yourselves to prayer. Then come together again so that Satan will not tempt you because of your lack of self-control. 6 I say this as a concession, not as a command. 7 I wish that all men were as I am. But each man has his own gift from God; one has this gift, another has that. 8 Now to the unmarried and the widows I say: It is good for them to stay unmarried, as I am. 9 But if they cannot control themselves, they should marry, for it is better to marry than to burn with passion. 1 Corinthians 7:1–9 (NIV)

For Healing to Begin We Must:

Invite God to BE FIRST. (5)

Make it about your SPOUSE’S NEEDS. (3-4)

Understand we are in different SEASONS for different REASONS. (6-8)

Today: Get REAL and avoid the STEAL. (5a & 9)
