10 Promises

One of my favorite Psalms is Psalm 34. One of the promises of God in Ps 34 is that his angel will camp round about them that fear him (vs7). I used this verse in my sermon on Sunday. I want to share with you the rest of the promises of God for those who fear him in this Psalm.

10 Promises in Ps 34.
1. The angel of the camps and delivers them that fear Him. v7
2. There is no want in them that fear Him. v9
3. They that seek the Lord shall not want any good thing. v10
4. The eyes of the Lord are upon the righteous. His ears are open to their cry. v10,15,17
5. The face of the Lord is against them that do evil. v 16
6. The righteous cry and the Lord hears and delivers them out of all their troubles. v17
7. The Lord is near to those who are of a broken heart. v18
8. He saves such as be of a contrite spirit. v18
9. Many are the afflictions of the righteous but the Lord delivers him out of them all. v19

Extract from Pt 3 of God, Love and Sex series

…………….. When a man and a woman enter into a marriage contract, the seal of that covenant is their union physically. To give away your virginity before marriage is far more serious than you ever thought possible…as you give away the seal to your marriage contract.

Someday you will fall in love for real with someone and marry them, and you will wish with all your heart to give them the most wonderful gift you ever could, your purity, but I remind you today you can only give it away once!

Purity is a Virtue! and young people, your virginity is a gift. It is your personal wedding gift that you give your spouse on the night of your wedding.

Girls: Don’t give it to the wrong man.

Guys: Don’t give it to the wrong woman.

Keep yourself pure.

Young People don’t give in to sexual pressure. Don’t even listen to the justification of why you should have sex before marriage.

Learn to Say NO. and here are some practical ways to say no.

10 WAYS TO SAY NO:

1. Everybody’s doing it. If that’s the case, then it shouldn’t be too hard to find someone else then?

2. If you love me you will have sex with me. If you love me, you wouldn’t pressure me. You will respect my feelings.

3. Would you like to get into the back seat? No thanks, I’d rather stay up front with you.

4. Don’t worry, I’ll use protection. You’re going to need protection if you don’t stop pressuring me.

5. Want to go to bed? No thanks, I just got up.

6. You don’t know what you’re missing. That will make two of us, because I’m not going to give you the satisfaction of finding out.

7. Try it, you’ll like it. I’m sure I will with the one I marry.

8. We’ve had sex before, what’s wrong with doing it again? That doesn’t make it right. Besides, I have the right to change my mind.

9. If you won’t sex with me then I don’t want to see you anymore. GoodBye!

10. I can’t believe you’re still a virgin! What are you waiting for? Anytime I want to I can become like you. But you can never again become like me.
