The Game of Flirting

“Can a man scoop fire into his lap without his clothes being burned? Can a man walk on hot coals without his feet being scorched?” –Proverbs 6:27-28

Flirting?

Does it really matter?      

Flirting is perhaps the oldest and most trusted  weapon the enemy, Satan, has used to draw and deceived mankind into the pit of sin and wickedness.

Flirting is the mother of tempatation; as temptation is the mother of sin.

Flirting is simply a deliberate choice, will or act of putting oneself in a position of being tempted or lured into problem or sin.

Flirting is creating a doorway by your own self-will for the Devil and Sin to creep into your life.

It is all about building a house when you know you will not live in it…

I ask you, “Why will someone get to a door if he knows you is not interested to come inside or enter”.

This is the attitude of a Flirt, “I like to get to the door, but I don’t feel like entering. I just want to stay and play around the door.”. IT DOESN’T MAKE ANY SENSE!

Flirting is a game of deception, lies, disguise, hypocrisy, flattery and seduction. It is a creative attitude displayed  by a person in order  to make people believe what is not true.

God is not a Flirt. There is no flirting in His Nature. God is honest,straightforward, truthful, original and sincere.

The game of flirting has been a deadly parasite that has diverted and destroy the destiny and lives of many young  people today. People flirt around the door of sexual immorality and God warned  to flee from it!

If you study the Life of Samson in the Bible, you will find out that he was a Flirt. He used his wisdom, power and abilities to flirt and play game. He ventured  into sexual immorality and ended up losses his eyes, power and life.

Flirting is an profitable activity. It is one of Satan tricks to waste, steal and divert the destinies, visions and gifts of young  people without them  knowing.

Joseph in the Bible was not a Flirt. He feared God and saw sexual immorality as wickedness and evil. Therefore when His Master’s wife came to romance him, he ran for his life. 

FLEE…for this is the right attitude we must develop if we want to overcome sexual temptations.

How  many of us see flirting as a sin? 

How  many of  play around sin and then say, “After all, I haven’t committed the sin?” How  many of us kiss and romance someone and say, ‘well it is okay, we did not have sexual intercourse.”

There is a proverb that says, “IF YOU DON’T WANT TO EAT THE APPLE, THERE IS NO NEED TOUCHING IT”.

The Bible says, “do not give the devil a chance”.

Many so called Christians have boyfriend and girlfriend, yet they claim they want to remain a virgin! What a stress…what a deception.

Flirting is self-deception. It comes from the spirit of lust. You said you don’t want to have sex, yet you like to watch pictures and videos of naked people having sex. Who is deceiving who?

It is time to examine yourself. Life is a battle field, and not a game house or a theater. It is time to separate yourself from careless and care-free living. It is time to live a life of self-respect, integrity and honesty.

‘It doesn’t matter’ is the attitude that has destroy many destinies.

Don’t live a life today that will be full of regrets and pain tomorrow.

I am speaking from experience.

Stop the game of flirting…

Live the sexual moral life
