CREATING AN ATMOSPHERE OF LUST
TEXT: 2 Samuel 11:2-3; Gen.34:2
KEY VERSE: I made a covenant with mine eves: why then should I think upon a maid?"Job 31:1
David inquired-Instead of suppressing that desire which the sight of his eyes had kindled, he seeks rather
to feed it; and first enquires who she was; that if she were unmarried, he might make her either his wife or
his concubine.
In the first place how could any woman of delicacy expose herself where she could be so
fully and openly viewed? Did she not know that she was at least in view of the king 's terrace?
Was there
no design or plan in all this? From this passage we can see how Beersheba the wife of Uriah created an
atmosphere of seduction for King David to fall, she was washing herself outside, instead of inside her
bathroom where no one will see her nakedness.
Her husband was not around so she probably decided to
position and bath herself outside the building where she can easily be seen from the storey building
probably she is aware that the king always walk around his roof top in the evenings.
So she set herself to
create an atmosphere of lust to attract the king's attention.
Therefore when she came he lay with her,
she too easily consenting, because he was a great man, and of great fame for his goodness too.
Surely
(thinks she) that can be no sin with such a man as David is the mover of Israel. Zeph. 1:8.
Today, it is so disappointing that even Christians are creating atmosphere of lust and seduction.
It is now a
general practice that they are now obeying and following the rules of the fashions of the world, "dressing
to look sexy."
Why do you as a Christian join the worldly to put on short or skimpy skirts or gowns that
expose your thighs, laps and legs to pollute the hearts of your brothers with immoral thoughts and to send
them to hell fire?
Remember you will pay for it, be warned, you are making yourself an agent of
Jezebel and a distributor of sinful thought and desires.
You are creating an atmosphere of seduction and lustful
desires.
Why are you happy with your wicked way of dressing that is sending your brothers to hell fire and
yet you claim not to know or understand the implication, using cosmetic make-ups, slitted or pencil skirts
and trousers, artificial hairs, padded bra, or women trousers? As an obedient and truthful Christian you
should know that any clothing that shows fitness on your breast to disclose the size and shape of your
breast is seductive and cannot glorify God.
It is all the same as if your breast is bare, dressing that has
fittings on your buttocks, hips, thighs or laps distracts and sends lustful signals to men at first sight.
Therefore just covering your flesh or body with clothing is not enough, care must be taken to also
consciously cover the shape, curves and cleavages of your body from being seen by others.
Every woman
knows that if a man is able to feed his eyes on the shape of their breast, buttocks, hips, laps or cleavages he
will be aroused and lust after them.
That is why the worldly have found a way of putting the shape of the
sensitive parts of their body for public display through the wearing of seductive clothing.
Prov. 6:25 "Lust not after her beauty in thine heart; neither let her take thee with her evelids."
