Lesson 360: JOSEPH: A STUDY IN DIVINE FAITHFULNESS – PART 6

INTRODUCTION:
In the last part of this series, we saw that everything that God allows is for a purpose, that sufferings always bring out the best in every person and that promotion is of the Lord. Today, as we continue our study, may God bless us richly in Jesus Name. Amen.

1. ADULTERY AND FORNICATION: THE DEVIL’S NO 1 WEAPONS
Joseph was tempted sexually, as it was then, so it is now Heb. 13:4. Satan know how much God hates adultery and fornication, that is why he uses them as his number one weapons against growing Christians. Today, he has many “brothers” and “sisters” who are nothing but agents of the devil himself around. Gen. 39:7-12; Exo. 20:14; I Thess. 4:3-7; Pro. 5:15-21; Pro. 5:3-5; Pro. 6:27-29; Pro. 6:32; Eph. 5:3; I Cor. 6:9, 15-20

2. KEEP YOURSELF PURE
Joseph refused to yield to the temptress Eph. 5:27. He refused to take the sugarcoated poison. Adultery and fornication are very potent poisons. Don’t take them. Keep yourself pure and unspotted. James 1:15; I Pet. 2:11; Matt. 5:22; Ps. 24:3-4; James 1:27
