2 Timothy 2:22 Flee also youthful lusts: but follow righteousness, faith, charity, peace, with them that call on the Lord out of a pure heart.
The world is field with lust. People are out to get what others have, without a desire to pay the price. The lust for money, sex, fame, riches, power or position is alarming in our days. This has caused divisions in our families, marriages, government, churches, schools, among others. But the Almighty God says "flee from lust".
Don't wait because you are strong. Flee from every thoughts and activities fueled by lust, for it contaminates anyone it comes in contact with. Choose your friends wisely and separate yourself from the lusting generation.
It's when we flee from lust that we create in our hearts room for righteousness, faith, charity, peace at all times. In order to live in these, we must surround ourselves with people with pure hearts. Ask the Holy Spirit to direct you to the right people, whose lives will add value to the Divine mandate in your life. God expects us to be free from the bondages of lust.
Let's pray together.
Heavenly Father, thank you for your word today. Please forgive us of any lust in our hearts before now and help us to live free from the entanglements of this world as we live in righteousness, in Jesus name. Amen.
