Why Sin Against Myself?

1 Corinthians 6:18 "Run from sexual sin! No other sin so clearly affects the body as this one does. For sexual immorality is a sin against your own body."

      Sweet Lord, I wish this verse had been drilled into my brain as a child at home and in our culture so in my adolescent and early twenty years I would have had a rock solid basis to say no to myself and my youthful lust and to say no when pressure was applied to conform to the world at that time.  And Lord, the climate is so much more loose and permissive than it ever was back then.  We need to protect our, our children's, and grandchildren's minds and hearts by seeing, and helping them see, the reality of this.
      Sexually transmitted disease (STD) would not be a factor in world, there would be no need for the vaccine that is now being pushed onto children against certain types, there would  be no need to fight about whether to give free contraceptives to our students in middle and high school.  Abstinence teaching is coming back, but it is slow and is coming against a lot of resistance even though the stats prove the detriment of promiscuity on not only the body, but also the minds of those who participate. 
      I believe the lie of evolutionary thinking promotes this type of behavior: We are mere animals after all and have no soul, no eternity to embrace or fear, and there certainly is no Master Creator that would hold anyone accountable for their actions.  Therefore the body is just a shell to house our brains and innards.  With that type of thinking, there is no real reason to abstain except for medical reasons.  You, Lord, know that is never enough reason.  We know that STD's, drug abuse, smoking, and alcohol can be killers, but folks do it anyway because the enemy whispers to us that those things will never happen to us just to someone else.  There has to be a higher reason!
      Lord, we need Your intervention in a big way to bring revival to our country and to the world.  I know we are more in the end times if not simply because of time passage, because of what we see happening in the world as a whole.  Even so, Lord Jesus, quickly come!
