Who would have ever thought in their minds to survive a great test of being single and still save. Living a life completely over to the will of God for his services. One man may think what does this really mean. Does it means to completely surrender to the will of God or does it means I can slip and fall every now and then and say God forgive me? God forbid, What shall we say then? Shall we continue in sin, that grace may abound? ( Romans 6:1) No more excuses for our failures dealing with fornication and adultery. It is time to live a life of holiness travailing in the spirit, interceding for one another so we can survive the great battle of temptation.

Every man is born with a desire which is a part of nature; however nature itself has to become subject to the power and the will of God. Our bodies are the the living temple of God and we should not defile the temple of God. The old temple which represents the church, the building was rend into two. And behold, the veil of the temple was rent in twain from the top to the bottom; and the earth did quake, and the rocks rent; (Matthew 27:51) Now that we represent the new temple in the power of his resurrection we should no longer be tied with the yoke of bondage to be obedient the sins of nature. For in that he died, he died unto sin once: but in that he liveth, he liveth unto God. Likewise reckon ye also yourselves to be dead indeed unto sin, but alive unto God through Jesus Christ our Lord. Let not sin therefore reign in your mortal body, that ye should obey it in the lusts thereof. Neither yield ye your members as instruments of unrighteousness unto sin: but yield yourselves unto God, as those that are alive from the dead, and your members as instruments of righteousness unto God.

(Romans 6:10-13) And the graves were opened; and many bodies of the saints which slept arose, And came up out of the graves after his resurrection, and went into the holy city, and appeared unto many. (Matthew 27:52-53) God wants the saints to allow the graves in their lives to be opened, no more sheets, and for them to walk out of their graves into the resurrection power of Jesus Christ. Living your life as a complete sacrifice, holy and acceptable unto God. This is not a measure of Judging but a measure of life to direct into the right path of righteous. No one will be able to enter into the kingdom of God with spots, wrinkles, or blemishes so it is time to get it right. Pray and ask God to make you whole, complete me oh God, create in me a clean heart and renew a righteous spirit within me. Put me back on the Potter's wheel and mold me into a righteous vessel so I can see you God for who you are. I can not get a complete relationship with you until you deliver my soul from this great woe that continues to work against my spiritual walk with you God.

Present the prayer of Paul, For we know that the law is spiritual: but I am carnal, sold under sin. For that which I do I allow not: but what I hate I do. If then I do that which I would not, I consent unto the law that it is good. Now then it is no more I that do it, but sin that dwelleth in me. (Romans 7:14-17) And learn the power of travailing in the spirit to become one in Christ. For we know that the whole creation groaneth and travaileth in pain together until now. And not only they, but ourselves also, which have the first fruits of the spirit, even we ourselves groan within ourselves, waiting for the adoption, to wit, the redemption of our body. For we are saved by hope: but hope that is seen is not hope:for what a man seeth, why doth he yet hope for? But if we hope for that we see not, then do we with patience wait for it. (Romans 8"22-25)There is victory after the wait so do not allow Satan to take away your victory by defiling your temple. Keep the faith for one day you will be able to say "I fought a good fight and I have finished my course."
