The rewards of sexual immorality

SEXUAL IMMORALITY is another thing that attracts strong generation­al curses. God made it clear that he hates it and will not fail to curse anybody that involves in it. He allows sexual relationsh­ip only between a husband and his wife. Anything outside of this amounts to immorality and will not go unpunished. Sexual immorality is one of the strategies of the enemy to destroy man, his relationsh­ip with his Creator, and also to totally destroy God’s eternal plan.

Today, people get involved in all manner of sexual sins – adultery, rape, homosexual­ity, threesome, prostituti­on, bestiality, sex with demons, masturbati­on, sex dolls and toys, etc. In fact, they invent new pervert practices every day, and Satan is solely behind all these.

Sexual immorality attracts divine curses and they can go generation­al. The first world at the time of Noah was wiped away by flood because of sexual perversion. Demons and fallen angels were committing immorality with human ladies, etc – Genesis 6. One of the sins of the sons of Eli was that they were sexually molesting women at the temple. This made God so angry that he declared that no old person will be found in their lineage. They will all die young, and the priesthood was removed from their linage forever. Those perverts and their father later died shamefully. Israel was also defeated and the Ark captured by the enemy. Rewards of immorality!

David’s household went through a crisis after he violated another man’s wife – violent deaths, rapes, etc. One of the reasons why God destroyed Sodom and Gomorrah was for immorality – homosexual sin. The men there were bold enough to attempt raping the angels that came to investigat­e them. Hear them: “…Where are the men who came to spend the night with you? Bring them out so we can have sex with them” (Genesis 19:5). God, in anger, wiped them out forever.

But is this not what men (even some churches) are also struggling with today? There is so much immorality in the land. We believe that some of the diseases that we are battling with today are as a result of this particular disobedien­ce to the word of God.

Sure, cursed is anybody that is involved in sexual immorality or sex out of marriage. The Bible said that every other sin is without the body, but sexual sin is with the body (the temple of God), and that God will not fail to destroy anybody that destroys or defiles His temple. Now, it looks like today that we are out of fashion not to be involved in sexual immorality. From our homes to our offices, from our schools to the places of power, from our places of worship to hotels, the stories are the same. Immorality everywhere! The Devil seems to have succeeded in capturing man through immoral behaviours.

University lecturers demand sexual gratificat­ion before awarding grades to students; bosses sleep with their secretarie­s and staff right there in the office; brothers sleep with their sisters; mothers sleep with their sons; men sleep with their wives’ sisters. Somebody recently told me a story of how a man was using his wife’s sister as a sex slave.

After messing up the girl’s life, he eventually passed her over to another man as a wife. I was so shocked to hear that because I know the man and his wife very well. But is that still news? No! We hear such things every day. They happen all around us. Filthiness everywhere! This is also what is going on in some of our homes. Men are sleeping with their daughters, wives’ sisters, their maids, relations and friends. Women are sleeping with their husband’s brothers, household helps, and even drivers. Recently, I was told of a man who impregnate­d the helper and when the wife became aware of the girl’s condition, she sent her away, only for the man to bring the girl back as a second wife. Imagine that! Abominatio­n!

If you are (or have been) involved in any of these, then know that the curse of God is upon you. And there must be a deliberate move right now to repent and return to God. He says that you cannot get involved in all the above and go unpunished.

Now, what do we say about the places of worship and seats of power? Is it still a secret that top public officials, including our leaders, live in sexual immorality? They come to the public and sermonise, pretending to be responsibl­e people, while in secret they are beasts; messing with their staff and some little girls old enough to be their granddaugh­ters. They send their own children to the best schools, then keep the children of others in their guest houses as sex slaves. The worse is that they spend public resources to maintain these dirty and cursed lifestyles.

What do you say about our corporatio­ns, banks and other business institutio­ns that use our girls for prostituti­on in the name of marketers and sales girls? They send them out to run after businessme­n to get deposits and open accounts with them. And you must not hear what they do in that name. Veiled prostituti­on! Others exploit these girls before giving them jobs and favours. Some even go beyond mere sexual satisfacti­on to use their victims for rituals and sacrifices, after having carnal knowledge of them.

Did you hear the story of the customs officer that was accused of repeatedly sleeping with a little boy and ended up depositing a snake-like creature that continued to move in the boy’s stomach? The boy was virtually turned into a living ghost after that wickedness. And he wasn’t the man’s first victim. Others actually died after the same experience with that beast called man. Did you watch that story on TV? The mother of the boy was crying, calling the baba to come and remove what he deposited in the boy’s stomach.

Why must people go to this extent to acquire worldly pleasure, temporal riches, power and positions? Have we not surpassed Sodom and Gomorrah, Noah’s generation, in wickedness and ungodlines­s? What is God still waiting for to wipe away this debased generation? Yes, our land and the people have been cursed because of all these iniquities.

Now, do you still ask why there is so much confusion, pain and crises all around us today? The leaders and the led are all battling with curses for disobeying God’s words. The curse of God is resting upon most families. When you misuse, exploit or violate people sexually, you attract curses from God and also from the people you have abused. Watch the people that get into all these and their families; they always harvest terrible consequenc­es.

Imagine defiling the young and innocent, and they and their parents cry and curse you every day. You and your own children will never be well in this life. Even if nobody sees you or brings you to justice, you will surely pay for it. Some promise to marry, but instead misuse people’s daughters then dump them, and tomorrow you want your own daughter to be blessed. No way! It won’t happen, for whatever a man sows, he will surely reap. Yes, some are suffering today because their own parents sexually abused or misuse other people’s children.

May God have mercy on us! If you are into any of these atrocities, you must repent now and begin to ask God to remove the curse from you and your family. For whatever a man sows, he must surely reap.
