Genesis4verse1 ‘And Adam knew Eve his wife; and she conceived, and bare Cain, and said, I have gotten a man from the Lord’
There is nothing that God does without a purpose in his mind. This is also true about the subject of sex! There is a divine agenda for sex! God doesn’t want man to be like an animal; this is why he created us in his likeness and Image. Therefore, he expects you to walk in dominion over your sexual desires and instincts! This is not true for everybody and is why God is sending this series of lessons your way today! My dear reader, one of the ways you can walk in victory in the area of your sexuality is by knowing the purpose of sex. Sex has certain purposes and so far, I have shared 2 of such purposes with you. Today by his grace, I want us to examine two more reasons for sex. If you are ready for this, let’s examine them right away.
3. For pleasure and enjoyment in marriage. God created sex to be enjoyed and not endured but you must understand that this has to be under marriage. Heb13v4. The Almighty created sex to give joy, pleasure and satisfaction in marriage. Evidence also abounds in scriptures about this truth, as seen in Proverbs5verse18-20 and in several other places in the Bible. In fact, scientific evidence also testifies that sex will add the following benefits to someone’s life, i.e., greater cardiac health, menstrual regularity, lower depression, lower anxiety, increase marital satisfaction, reassures a woman of her husband’s love for her, reduce friction in the home, prolong longevity among several other benefits. So, my dear friends, I believe you can now see what God is trying to achieve through sex.
4. For procreation. Yes, this is another important reason for sex. It takes a woman and a man to have a child. I know that there are many ways through medical science that a woman can conceive, but the truth remains that the semen has to be taken from a man. A man and a man cannot give birth to a child or vice versa. So one of the reasons for sex is for conception purposes. This is God’s order and how the world has been populated over time. Gen4v1-2.
Dearly beloved, I believe that you can see what Jehovah had in mind by creating sex! These are some of the purposes he seeks to achieve through humanity. I pray that this understanding will empower you to walk in victory in the area of your sexuality in Jesus name, amen.
