27 You have heard that it was said, ‘You shall not commit adultery.’28 But I tell you that anyone who looks at a woman lustfully has already committed adultery with her in his heart. 29 If your right eye causes you to stumble, gouge it out and throw it away. It is better for you to lose one part of your body than for your whole body to be thrown into hell.
33 Again, you have heard that it was said to the people long ago, ‘Do not break your oath, but fulfill to the Lord the vows you have made.’ 34 But I tell you, do not swear an oath at all: either by heaven, for it is God’s throne; 35 or by the earth, for it is his footstool; or by Jerusalem, for it is the city of the Great King. 36 And do not swear by your head, for you cannot make even one hair white or black. 37 All you need to say is simply ‘Yes’ or ‘No’; anything beyond this comes from the evil one.
Lust is something very difficult and very distracting in my life and I admit it. I am actually having this problem and BOOM, God straight away address this problem in day one itself. HOW GREAT IS OUR GOD? '
Secondly, Jesus is trying to tell me that do not say words and dont mean it. Do not say I'll pray for you and dont do it. I have learnt this from a good friend of mine Gilbert who often tell me this sentence. "let you word but weighty?' something like that.
Let's not pretend that this is easier than how it is. Choose a life that is blinded one side than a life to be thrown into a moral trash pile.
I love Jesus and I definitely would choose What Jesus will Do.
From today forward with God's help, i will not think or look lustfully to any people from the opposite gender, and also not say words or promise anyone even if is religious and i dont mean or do it.
Thank you Jesus.
