Memory Verse for the Week: Matthew 5:27-29 (ESV)

“You have heard that it was said, ‘You shall not commit adultery.’ But I say to you that everyone who looks at a woman with lustful intent has already committed adultery with her in his heart. If your right eye causes you to sin, tear it out and throw it away. For it is better that you lose one of your members than that your whole body be thrown into hell.

“IN HIS HEART …”

VALLEY OF HINNOM

“IT IS BETTER …“

YOU CAN PRAY WITH US …

1. Worship the LORD for his covenantal commitment to us. Praise Him, Father, Son, and Spirit that His love for us is not conditional or consumeristic, it is totally unconditional and steadfast.

2. How have you lived with lustful intent? How have you fantasized and stolen and objectified what was not yours? Confess to the LORD your lack of self-control, your quickness to break your word, and your perversion of looking.

3. Give thanks to Jesus for the way He looks at us. Thank Him for displaying to us what is better than all else offered to us in this world—relationship and intimacy with Him.

4. Where have you seen the breakdown and brokenness from sexual sin, either in your own life or the life of another? Pray for them, ask the Lord to heal and reconcile, and let it be a time to repent of your own sexual deviancy.

5. Ask the Holy Spirit to build in us “whatever is true, whatever is honorable, whatever is just, whatever is pure, whatever is lovely, whatever is commendable” (Phil. 4:8).

Looking Back
