Awesome facts about sex you didn’t know

Human beings are naturally fascinated with sex; it’s a desire that God put in us at creation but many of us make the mistake of awakening it before its due time. These days we hear of casual sex, flings, one night stands and many other titles attached to sex. However, let’s take a moment to ask ourselves this question; are all this names the real reason God created sex? The real purpose why God created sex is to bring glory to his name but most times we do otherwise.

The act of sexual intercourse carries a lot of physical and spiritual significance that we tend to forget. Sex is not really something that should be done anyhow with just anyone. It is sacred and its sacredness is even portrayed in our different cultures. Let’s look at a few significance;

Ø  Sex is likened to a soul tie; what do I mean? God intended sex to be a union of two lives into one uniting with him (God) in a blood covenant; gen 2:24, 1 Corinthians 6:12-20. A covenant is an agreement done with blood and it’s not to be treated lightly. Sex ties your soul to your partner. Take a moment to ask yourself; do you want to tie your soul to just anyone? Do you want to tie your soul to multiple partners?

Ø  There is a transfer of spirit during sexual intercourse; when you have sex with someone, he/she owns a part of you and vice versa. A part of your spirit is transferred to that person while you receive a part of his own. We should take note that this transference includes both problems and virtues. In order words you can inherit problems through premarital sex, problems you wouldn’t have ever had otherwise. God intended this transfer for marriage alone and it happening outside marriage is dangerous.

Ø  Sex is a divine gift and as such shouldn’t be misused; everything God has given us including sex is good and is primarily for his glory. When you engage in premarital sex, you are not using God’s gift wisely and you stand a risk of enmity with him. Trust me; you don’t want that for yourself. Sex within the context of marriage is beautiful and glorifies God in its entirety.

Ø  Each time you have sexual intercourse with someone, you leave a part of yourself behind. The longer you engage in the act of premarital sex, the more you leave behind. How does that sound to you? As you go on and on you lose yourself until there is almost nothing left. So when you eventually find your special someone you are like an empty vessel.

Ø  Sex exposes you to a vulnerability that can only be covered for in marriage; in sexual intercourse you lose touch of your surroundings and get lost in the act. This makes you vulnerable to any kind of attack. That’s why God created marriage as an umbrella under which sex should exist. In marriage the Holy Spirit acts as a covering during sexual intercourse but outside marriage there is no covering and your soul is exposed. Therefore you are liable to attack whenever you engage in premarital sex so make your choice wisely.
