AFTER SAYING "I DO", WHAT CAN YOU DO? - Part 4 (Conclusion)
I CAN’T THINK ABOUT JESUS
AND HAVE PASSIONATE SEX WITH MY SPOUSE.
IT WILL RUIN THE MOOD!
Your entire life is a form of worship… even when you are popping popcorn, grocery shopping, going to an amusement park, exercising, eating, watching a spectator sport, a soldier in the army, a bank teller, etc. You are a LIVING sacrifice. Everything about you is an offering to the Lord as your reasonable worship. You don’t have to be “spooky spiritual” to be a worshipper!
Romans 12:1 (Amplified Bible)
I APPEAL to you therefore, brethren, and beg of you in view of [all] the mercies of God, to make a decisive dedication of your bodies [presenting all your members and faculties] as a living sacrifice, holy (devoted, consecrated) and well pleasing to God, which is your reasonable (rational, intelligent) service and spiritual worship.
When I say your sex life is a form of worship, what I am NOT saying is that you have a mental image of Christ on your mind while you are making love to your spouse. What I AM saying is that you must have an understanding of your roles, biblical principles as your moral code and also a correct view of sex as a form of worship. This will help you set boundaries and adhere to them.
It is because of the passages in Corinthians and Ephesians that I view sex as a form of worship. Yes, of course in a marriage we want physical pleasure and we get it to, (it’s a fringe benefit to the covenant of marriage -- HALLELUJAH!!) God's word is not against the physical pleasure we receive. There is a book in the bible called the Song of Solomon…wooo hooo… very very passionate!!! When you get a moment read it.
Never forget that you take the Holy Spirit with you everywhere you go; that includes your marriage bed. If you and your husband have a foundation of viewing your sex life as a form of worship, you will have a Song of Solomon experience and experience sexual pleasure that only God can give!!!
Here's an excerpt from the Song of Solomon Chapter 4
THE BRIDEGROOM
10 How delightful is your love, my sister, my bride!
How much more pleasing is your love than wine,
and the fragrance of your perfume than any spice!
11 Your lips drop sweetness as the honeycomb, my bride;
milk and honey are under your tongue.
The fragrance of your garments is like that of Lebanon .
12 You are a garden locked up, my sister, my bride;
you are a spring enclosed, a sealed fountain.
THE BRIDE
16 Awake, north wind,
and come, south wind!
Blow on my garden,
that its fragrance may spread abroad.
Let my lover come into his garden
and taste its choice fruits.
You were your husband’s sister in Christ BEFORE you were his bride! And he should understand and even articulate that to you. Men when you consider what I have just written, forget the ungodly thought of you sleeping with your sister. God’s ways and thoughts are not the same as ours! That woman remains your sister even after you are married. Your mother is your sister; your father is your brother. Your son is your brother; your daughter is your sister. Remember to keep all things in BIBLICAL perspective.
Mark 3:31-35 (KJV)
31There came then his brethren and his mother, and, standing without, sent unto him, calling him.
32And the multitude sat about him, and they said unto him, Behold, thy mother and thy brethren without seek for thee.
33And he answered them, saying, Who is my mother, or my brethren?
34And he looked round about on them which sat about him, and said, Behold my mother and my brethren!
35For whosoever shall do the will of God, the same is my brother, and my sister, and mother.
CONCLUSION:
What can be done in a marriage bed is not a matter of a list of Do’s and Don’ts. What happens in the bedroom is between husbands, wives and the Lord. Both husbands and wives need to examine the entire Ephesians passage in context. With clear understanding of biblical roles, MUCH prayer, communicating your sexual desires, fantasies, likes and dislikes you may be able to come to a compromise that is beneficial to both in your reasonable service of worship.
I speak wisdom and understanding and a blessing on the sex lives all the married couples who are sons and daughters of the Most High God.

Greetings Minister Tracy:
It's a great subject that you are brining up!
I'd like to submit a web site for those who might be interested. There are some Rabbinic teachings here that I may not agree with but we can cover those when and if they are asked. I don't have much time to dialoge here today, so I will just give the web page:
