Working Scripture: Genesis 3:6
Gen 3:6 And when the woman saw
that the tree was good for
food, and that it was
pleasant to the eyes, and a tree to be desired to make one wise, she took of the fruit
thereof, and did eat, and gave also unto her husband with her; and he
did eat.
INTRODUCTION
One day,
I asked the youths if they knew the meaning of ‘lust’. Everybody
answered
with a ‘yes’. Then I asked whoever that had lusted after anyone to raise
up his or
her hand. Only a few raised their hands. I, also, raised my hand. The
others
that did not raise their hands were laughing at us who raised our hands. I
asked
them why they didn’t raise their hands but they could not answer but kept on
laughing.
I concluded they either did not know the meaning of lust or were just
pretending.
Let’s
face it. Almost everyone who is old enough to understand the meaning of ‘lust’
has
lusted after one person or the other, at least once. This teaching will help
you
to understand
the meaning of lust both biblical and practically, determine if you are
in lust and
what to do to overcome it.
WHAT IS LUST?
Lust can simply
be defined as desiring, craving, longing to have or doing
what is ungodly in preference to that which comes from God. Anybody can
lust after anything. There could be lust after food like children of Israel did
in the wilderness, lust after music, lust after clothe or lust after anything
once it is ungodly. But since we are dealing with youthful sexual lust, I will
paraphrase lust to be desiring, craving, longing to have
or doing an ungodly sexual act especially by the Youths.
FIVE STAGES OF
LUSTS
I was made to
understand that the fall of Adam by Satan through Eve was due to Eve’s
undergoing the complete stages of Lust after the forbidden fruit. Let us look
at our working scripture.
From the
underlined in our working scripture, we can see the processes or stages that
Eve went through:
1. She made eye contact with
the forbidden fruit and could not take her eyes away from it. {pleasant to the
eye).
2. Her heart desired to have a
taste of the fruit (a tree to be desired).
3. In between, before she took
the fruit, she must have planned how to pluck the fruit.
4. She carried out her heart
desire by eating the fruit. She took action (and did eat)
5. Consequently, she became
lost to death (God’s judgement).
These five
stages that Lot went through led sequentially one to another. Each stage is
lust on its own and is sinful. Let us look at these five stages in practical
ways at they affect youths.
FIRST STAGE OF
LUST (THE CONTACT STAGE)
Lust at this stage is given
by the acronym below.L -LOOKING
U -UNCONTROLLABLY at
S -SEXUAL
T -TARGETS
This is the
stage where a youth gets in contact with his/her sexual target. The primary
agent here is the eyes. The eyes of a youth come in contact with his/her sexual
targets and lose control. The target may be a chorister singing worship, the
pointed nose of a female/male, the eyelid of a female, the moustache of a male,
the uncovered straight legs of a female/male, the muscular frame of a man or
any sensuous part of a female/male. Some youths even lusts after unclad
mannequins in boutiques. Other lustful sexual targets include pornographic
images and videos on magazines, Facebook, Whatzapp, YouTube and so on. Once, I saw a video on the internet of a man
that saw a statue of an unclothe female. He was so much lost in lust that he
went to hug the statue and began to caress it. Lust can be so burning. Burn it
before it burns you.
Once, you are
lost in control of looking at any ‘sensuous’ part of an opposite sex, and the
image feel pleasant to your sight, then you are engrossed in what the scripture
calls ‘the lust of the eyes’.
1 John 2:16 For all that is in the world, the lust of the
flesh, and the lust of the eyes, and the pride of life, is not of the
Father, but is of the world.
The lust of the
eyes is a sin and not of God. This was the first thing that happened to Eve in
the garden. She started looking
uncontrollably at the forbidden fruit and it was pleasant to her eyes.
The first stage
of lust which we refer to as the contact stage if not dealt with quickly will
lead a man/woman to the second stage which has to do with the heart. This we
shall look at in the second part of this teaching.
The main purpose of this teaching is to help Youths overcome Lust in whatever stage he/she might be. But we need to let them understand in clear terms what Youthful Sexual lusts are. After going through the 5 stages of sexual lust, then we begin how to overcome each stage of lust. Watch out for the second part of this teaching on this site.
PRAYERS
1. Lord, Jesus Christ, set the fire of Holy Ghost
in my eyes and burn off all the spirit of lust working inside them.
2. Cast out the lust out of my eyes by the
finger of God.
3. Do not allow
me to fall to lust like Adam and Eve
4. Destroy every
trap of seduction on my way by the fire of God.
5. My eyes will
not send me to hell fire in Jesus’ name.
