SEX AS A WEAPON

Couples find themselves in this position all the time. Boy meets girl. Boy pursues girl. Boy falls in love with girl. Boy starts relationship with girl. Boy and girl argue. Girl withholds sex from boy. The ultimate way for a woman in the relationship to get back at her beau is to stop the sex pipeline. This may be hard to believe, but God wants us to enjoy the bodies of our wives/husbands. Sex is something that is beautiful between husband and wife and it should not be held captive by either. Share your body with your spouse. If you start to hold back on sex it opens the door for infidelity. It does not justify it, but it opens a crack in the armor. Monogamy is hard enough without putting our own obstacles in the midst like not having sex with our spouses to prove a point. 1 Corinthians 7: 5 says, "The husband should give to his wife her conjugal rights, and likewise the wife to her husband. For the wife does not have authority over her own body, but the husband does. Likewise the husband does not have authority over his own body, but the wife does.Do not deprive one another, expect perhaps by agreement for a limited time, that you may devote yourselves to prayer; but then come together again,so that Satan may not tempt you because of you lack of self control." Take heed to these words next time one of you wants to prove a point in the relationship. Sex is an important part of a healthy relationship not be taken lightly of ransomed off. We belong to one another, our bodies are given to our spouse the moment you give them your heart. Cherish your spouses body/feelings as you do your own. Stay thirsty my friends....
