Thou shalt not covet thy neighbour’s house, thou shalt not covet thy neighbour’s wife, nor his manservant, nor his maidservant, nor his ox, nor his ass, nor any thing that is thy neighbour’s.”
Exodus 20:17
Lust is an intense or unrestrained sexual craving, or an overwhelming desire or craving. Lust has its focus on pleasing one’s self, and it often leads to unwholesome actions to fulfill one’s desires with no regard to the consequences. Essentially, lust is about possession and greed.
You can trade into lust through lust of the eyes, the lust of the flesh, sinning with your Gates, which are your eyes, ears, mouth, skin, and nose, etc. Lust when conceived, brings forth sin, and when it is finished, it brings death. (James 1:15). It is a serious offense before God.
Therefore, think and meditate on every way you have lusted in your heart. Today, repent and ask the Lord to forgive and cleanse you with the blood of Jesus.
Prophecy 1: Receive grace to overcome lust in Jesus’ name.
Prophecy 2: As you step out today, may the grace to stay in the Word rest on you in Jesus’ name.
