Wives, submit to your own husbands, as to the Lord. For the husband is the head of the wife even as Christ is the head of the church, his body, and is himself its Savior. Now as the church submits to Christ, so also wives should submit in everything to their husbands. Husbands, love your wives, as Christ loved the church and gave himself up for her, that he might sanctify her, having cleansed her by the washing of water with the word, ...Ephesians 5:22-33
“Therefore a man shall leave his father and mother and hold fast to his wife, and the two shall become one flesh.” Ephesians 5:31
He answered, “Have you not read that he who created them from the beginning made them male and female..Matthew 19:4
But from the beginning of creation, ‘God made them male and female.’ Mark 10:6
Indeed, we can look through the Bible and see the heart of God and the design of God for humanity and when it comes to marriage and what God has created male and female to be, husband and wife. We can't deny the design of God - He has a purpose for both male and female. He knit them together as husband and wife for a purpose.
The bible is very plain in this, either you read the Bible in other languages, the message is clear. God created 'man' and 'woman'. We don't find any passages saying that same sex are in marriage or we as the creature can choose our own sexuality, we can do whatever we think is right. Why can't we?
1 Corinthians 6:19-20,"Do you not know that your bodies are temples of the Holy Spirit, who is in you, whom you have received from God? You are not your own; you were bought at a price. Therefore honor God with your bodies."
We see that we are not our own but God's creation. We all belong to God who is the Creator of us all, unless you do not believe there's a God created you and me. Unless you do not think so. If you do know there's a God created you and me, then we shall know that our body is the temple of God (the Holy Spirit is in you, living in you when you confessed that Jesus Christ is your personal Savior). We are bought at a high price which cost Jesus his own life for our sins. We are purified and live with a clear conscience because of the Blood of Jesus. So, our whole being belong to God alone and we do not have the final say but God. We are not the ruler of our own being but our submission shall be to the God who created us. Whatever we think is right, does not mean it is right in the sight of God. We need to align what we think and feel to the WORD OF GOD instead. For His Word is the ONLY TRUTH!
Know that the Lord is God. It is he who made us, and we are his; we are his people, the sheep of his pasture. Psalm 100:3
Are you struggling with your sexuality? Struggling is one thing, knowing the fact is another thing and actually the most important thing you need to hold onto - the fact is that God created you to be a male or a female, God created you for a purpose even you might not feel it or see it right now. Perhaps you would rather be to be the opposite sex or you might wonder in your heart, why not created me to be the opposite sex, i felt like or thought like the opposite sex sometimes. You might feel uncomfortable with the sex God created you to be right now. Somehow FACT IS FACT and God created you to be a particular sex and God has a purpose for you.
Seek you, pour out your heart to Him now. It is okay to get a bit confused or frustrated. God is there and please take the time and courage to seek Him and pour out your heart, ask Him for things you do not understand, believe and know that God is there for you, He will give you all understanding. Pray that the Holy Spirit will guide you into all truths, let the love of God to shield you from all deception. I know that God will guide you and give you clarity for your next step.
We all struggle in many different ways in our lives on earth. Confusion, deception and temptation are all around us by the way. Yield to Jesus, Turn to Him in faith, Pour out your heart to Him. He loves you so dearly!
Now the Lord is the Spirit, and where the Spirit of the Lord is, there is freedom. 2 Corinthians 3:17
Out of my distress I called on the Lord; the Lord answered me and set me free. Psalm 118:5
So Jesus said to the Jews who had believed him, “If you abide in my word, you are truly my disciples, and you will know the truth, and the truth will set you free.” John 8:31-32
“Because he holds fast to me in love, I will deliver him; I will protect him, because he knows my name. When he calls to me, I will answer him; I will be with him in trouble; I will rescue him and honor him. Psalm 91:14-15
May the Lord bless you. Stay blessed and protected in the name of Jesus. Amen.
