Let’s talk about sex - the...

Olusegun Festus Remilekun

INTRODUCTION: 
 
God wants your marriage to succeed and prosper, and He has given you the blueprint to make your family's happiness possible! The Bible contains rock-solid principles upon which you can build a strong marriage, home, and family. 
 
11 Corinthians 2:14 
‘’Now thanks be unto God, which always causeth us to triumph in Christ, and maketh manifest the savor of his knowledge by us in every place.’’ 
 
Your marriage has an enemy. The enemy who wants to steal kill and destroy wants to devour your marriage.  The victorious family is the family that always record victory in their home and marriage. The attack of the enemy will not scatter them. 
 
Here is the truth that most people do not like to admit: marriage is hard. It is incredibly hard. Spending your life and time forever with someone who is different from you is not quite the walk in the park. It has its ups and downs, its highs and lows. There is disagreement, then agreement. There is breaking, then making, but when handled right, it is incredibly beautiful. 
 
In this mini-book, I will be talking about sex in marriage. In my years of experience as a pastor, I have found out that some believers are more spiritual about this subject because their focus is in making heaven. 
 
I want you to know that God Himself commanded sex between married couples.
