The Blessed Path

Text: Genesis 39:10 “And it came to pass, as she spake to Joseph day by day, that he hearkened not unto her, to lie by her, or to be with her.”

Introduction:

Good for you Joseph, a big hoorah!

Wonderful example,"He learned to stand where, No man Stands Alone”

Joseph: Not sure where all that he had recieved his character from, but it was not from Egypt. Egypt would amount today to our worlds way. The devil is all over the worlds way of , suckers, fools, stooges, nincompoops, ding-dongs.

The Devil laughs: When innocence, purity, virtues are gone and Bible values are discarded, given away or ignored. Following Gods will, will by-pass many Hard-aches, Hurts, Harms and Haunting decisions.

This is a good read called staying in the Castle for young folks to read and ponder that can help make the journey a prosperous spiritually and blessed way. Recommend the booklet “Staying In the Castle.”

The Faithful Journey: Will take Work, Dedication, Diligence. Must be willing to enact some laws into your life. Listen will, the devil knows you can not unscramble eggs. By God Great grace you can walk the blessed road.

Royal vows: by Gods grace “I will arrive at the marriage altar”:

Arrive at the Marriage, with the one God has created for me. Saved and sincere one.

Arrive at the Marriage altar, morally pure.

Arrive at the Marriage altar, prepared to fulfill the roll God has given each. To further His will not hinder.

I. Cling to His Royal Laws (a Must):

Eve Genesis 2:21–24 “And the Lord God caused a deep sleep to fall upon Adam, and he slept: and he took one of his ribs, and closed up the flesh instead thereof; And the rib, which the Lord God had taken from man, made he a woman, and brought her unto the man. And Adam said, This is now bone of my bones, and flesh of my flesh: she shall be called Woman, because she was taken out of Man. Therefore shall a man leave his father and his mother, and shall cleave unto his wife: and they shall be one flesh.”

A. Seek that one, the ONE GOD has for you!

1. Saved?

2. Spiritual, not carnal. Not Cains way but Able’s, Seth’s way.

3. God only took one rib, not six and said date around and let me know which one you want. Eve was Adams perfect fit. He was incomplete with out her.

B. The Empowerment of you: The nne in which will make you a better you, more completed you, an empowered you! Eve had part of Adam inside her (a rib). The world, run by Satan works hard to ruin you as fast as he can, to awaken desires long before it is time. To ruin and smear God’s wondrous design.

C. Seek and Trust God would bring the one to pass: Relax, Rest and Reside in the garden, stay in the garden.

D Seek To Prepare: This time is about preparation not pursuit. Wait until you are ready, matured, have a game plan. Prepare to lead, make your mate a better mate in following Gods pursuit for their lives.

E. Seek God Conformation: How will you know. Gods will is discernible by those in Gods will. So, stay in the will of God. Live in the transformed mind (see from Gods perspectives). No candidate who refuses to separate from this filthy world is a candidate.

Note: Wise-men still seek him :)

II. Chastity Laws (Need Kept): Make them, Keep them for purity.

Deuteronomy 23:21 “When thou shalt vow a vow unto the Lord thy God, thou shalt not slack to pay it: for the Lord thy God will surely require it of thee; and it would be sin in thee.”

A. Guard Gods standards: Not lowered, Not ignored or Not over looking it.

Exodus 20:14 “Thou shalt not commit adultery.”

1 Corinthians 6:18 “Flee fornication. Every sin that a man doeth is without the body; but he that committeth fornication sinneth against his own body.”

Hebrews 13:4 “Marriage is honourable in all, and the bed undefiled: but whoremongers and adulterers God will judge.”

1 Thessalonians 4:3 “For this is the will of God, even your sanctification, that ye should abstain from fornication:”

B. Guard your mine: There will be much aimed at lowering you defenses. Here is some help to ponder:

1. Guard the Seeing gate: Psalm 101:3 “I will set no wicked thing before mine eyes: I hate the work of them that turn aside; it shall not cleave to me.”

2. Guard the Purity Gate:

Romans 12:21 “Be not overcome of evil, but overcome evil with good.”

Philippians 4:8 “Finally, brethren, whatsoever things are true, whatsoever things are honest, whatsoever things are just, whatsoever things are pure, whatsoever things are lovely, whatsoever things are of good report; if there be any virtue, and if there be any praise, think on these things.”

3. Guard The Excusing Gate:Never make excuses to justify lusts attack.

James 1:15 “Then when lust hath conceived, it bringeth forth sin: and sin, when it is finished, bringeth forth death.” Try to stay away from places and positions that increase lust problems.

Places of temptation

Proverbs7:7–8 “And beheld among the simple ones, I discerned among the youths, A young man void of understanding, Passing through the street near her corner; And he went the way to her house,”. Places of temptation:

Hours of Temptation:

Proverbs 7:9 “In the twilight, in the evening, In the black and dark night:”

Attire of temptation:

Proverbs 7:10 “And, behold, there met him a woman With the attire of an harlot, and subtil of heart.”

4. Guard The Lower Character Gate: Those who are of low character, those who cannot keep their hands to themselves (male or female), those who use flattery suggestive talk. Proverbs 7:15–21 “Therefore came I forth to meet thee, Diligently to seek thy face, and I have found thee. I have decked my bed with coverings of tapestry, With carved works, with fine linen of Egypt. I have perfumed my bed With myrrh, aloes, and cinnamon. Come, let us take our fill of love until the morning: Let us solace ourselves with loves. For the goodman is not at home, He is gone a long journey: He hath taken a bag of money with him, And will come home at the day appointed. With her much fair speech she caused him to yield, With the flattering of her lips she forced him.”

5. Guard The Boundary Gate: Like touch. 1 Corinthians 7:1 “Now concerning the things whereof ye wrote unto me: It is good for a man not to touch a woman.” What will you do ahead of time about Hugs, Hand holding, a Kiss, A Rubbing by someone, etc,

III.Counsel Godly (To Be Followed):

Proverbs 19:20–21 “Hear counsel, and receive instruction, That thou mayest be wise in thy latter end. There are many devices in a man’s heart; Nevertheless the counsel of the Lord, that shall stand.”

A. Parents: Proverbs 6:20 “My son, keep thy father’s commandment, And forsake not the law of thy mother:” Beware of those who want to drive a wedge between Parents and you. give your Parents veto power.

B Pastor: Hebrews 13:17 “Obey them that have the rule over you, and submit yourselves: for they watch for your souls, as they that must give account, that they may do it with joy, and not with grief: for that is unprofitable for you.”

C. People of Godliness: Proverbs 15:22 “Without counsel purposes are disappointed: But in the multitude of counsellers they are established.”

IV. Calamitous Hope For Your Wedding: Satanic and Demonic.

A. Stained and Soiled: In Life, In Testimony, In Walk.

B. Out of God’s will: Chances of fulling Gods will be very slime for the future, rather than thrusting it onward. Missing of the perfect calling of God for you.

C. Ill-prepared: For blissfulness spiritually.

D. Braking of parents hearts:

E. A marriage more liken Cain’s than Able’s:

Closing Notes; Make The Royal Laws Your Laws!!! AMEN!!

If you have wrecked them: Your Testimony then Repent and come clean. You can not unscramble eggs but you can make a meal from them. Acknowledge the wrong doing and go on doing right from that point of repentance. Brake the cycle of wrong, wicked, stench, foul, ect grip! And start now!!!
