It’s Getting Hot Out There!

We all know Nelly’s song and have danced to too!  It’s getting hot out there and if you’re single (or married), it may be getting hot inside you, too! So be careful because fire is hot and you don’t want to be burned.  Don’t forget, sometimes the price of making a mistake is way too high!  It's Getting Hot Out There!Spring is here and summer’s right around the corner and the crazy has already begun.  Folks, just like the flowers and trees, are in full bloom.  As soon as it seemed to get hot I started seeing folks outside half-dressed, scoping out who’s available to play.

I’ve had more than my share of dealings with the demon of lust and it took me about two years to get dominion over it, and another six years maintaining that control over it, so I know it quite well.  So, what do you do when spring comes and the lust inside you wakes up or turns up its heat?

Most “grown folks” do whatever they feel they are big and bad enough to do, and we’ve all done things that we have later come to regret.  So let’s just be honest and put all of the cards on the table. Mark 7: 21-23 (nkjv); For from within, out of the heart of men, proceed evil thoughts, adulteries, fornications, murders, 22 thefts, covetousness, wickedness, deceit, lewdness, an evil eye, blasphemy, pride, foolishness. 23 All these evil things come from within and defile a man.”  Aren’t you tired of being by yourself?  Are you dancing with the demon of loneliness?  Do you just want someone to love and to love you back?  Or do you just want to have some “no strings attached” sex?

Wherever you find yourself, it’s okay.  No judgments here because I did my own thing too – until Jesus!

We all know that love and lust are not the same thing, and they sure don’t come from the same source.  God is love, but lust comes from Satan.  Which one controls you?  Most of us have given into the lust demon and when we did we were left empty inside (James 1:14-15; We are tempted by our own desires that drag us off and trap us. 15 Our desires make us sin, and when sin is finished with us, it leaves us dead), mad at ourselves – again!  But, once you connect with Jesus and you submit control of your life to Him, being a “ho” is never okay again.

Now if love is what you’re after, then start with loving yourself inside your dark places.  Start accepting where you are, who you are today, and sit with God to develop a plan of action that will shine God’s light into those dark places and drive the demons that live there out.  But, how do you do that?

Well, let’s use Esther as an example.  Esther needed to become queen to save her people, so she submitted one year of her life to being trained to be a queen and to attract the king.  Esther 2:12; Now when every maid’s turn was come to go in to king Ahasuerus, after that she had been twelve months, according to the manner of the women, (for so were the days of their purification accomplished, to wit, six months with oil of myrrh, and six months with sweet odours, and with other things for the purifying of the women (kjv). What kind of training to become a queen have you submitted to?  Most women want to be treated like a queen and to marry a king, right?

When I thought I was ready to get married, I went to God and asked Him to teach me how to be a queen because I wanted a king.  I did the homework and passed most of the tests.  God is so good that He let me take the tests I failed over until I passed them.  I learned quickly to do the work whether I liked it or not, whether I agreed with God or not.  I’ve now been married for nine years and my king keeps getting better and better.  But, that’s because we follow God’s lead in every area of life.  By the way, to all the fellas reading this, it works the same way – in order to marry a queen you too have to be trained to be a king.  Check out Jimmy and Karen Evans if you think you’re ready for training.

It's Hot Out There!So make what you want clear inside yourself and talk to God about it so you can develop a plan to work this summer, because it’s getting hot outside and Satan plans to burn you inside his flames.  I don’t care how cute this dude is or how sexy and big her butt is, you better know who sent these people to intercept your life and don’t get caught in the “wolf in sheep’s clothing” trap!

However, if you do choose to wild out, because that’s your choice, be safe and protect yourself.  I know how attractive “hot” is so don’t get it twisted, mistakes come with a price to be paid (thank God for His mercy and grace that is new everyday), but you don’t want to pay with your life!

It’s getting hot outside!  How hot are you?

    You said it all! This word applies to all the ages and you grown and sexy folk better use some wisdom! It might be getting hot out there but that doesn’t mean take off all your clothes.
    Turn on the air conditioner and stay cool!
