“Let every man abide in the same calling wherein he was called” (1 Corinthians 7:20 KJV). [Instead of the word “Called”, the 1560 Geneva Bible uses the word “Vocation”] Father, thank You for getting us through another week. If we have fallen short in doing Your perfect will, please open our blind eyes for us […]

“But as God hath distributed to every man, as the Lord hath called every one, so let him walk. And so ordain I in all churches. Is any man called being circumcised? let him not become uncircumcised. Is any called in uncircumcision? let him not be circumcised. Circumcision is nothing, and uncircumcision is nothing, but […]

“For the unbelieving husband is sanctified by the wife, and the unbelieving wife is sanctified by the husband: else were your children unclean; but now are they holy. But if the unbelieving depart, let him depart. A brother or a sister is not under bondage in such cases: but God hath called us to peace. […]

“And unto the married I command, yet not I, but the Lord, Let not the wife depart from her husband: But and if she depart, let her remain unmarried, or be reconciled to her husband: and let not the husband put away his wife. But to the rest speak I, not the Lord: If any […]

“I say therefore to the unmarried and widows, ‘It is good for them if they abide even as I. But if they cannot contain, let them marry: for it is better to marry than to burn’” (1 Corinthians 7:8, 9 KJV). Father, as we begin our week we ask that You protect us from evil. […]

“For I would that all men were even as I myself. But every man hath his proper gift of God, one after this manner, and another after that” (1 Corinthians 7:7 KJV).  Father, thank You for the freedom to marry or not to marry. If widowed to stay widowed or to not. We need Your […]

“The wife hath not power of her own body, but the husband: and likewise also the husband hath not power of his own body, but the wife. Defraud ye not one the other, except it be with consent for a time, that ye may give yourselves to fasting and prayer; and come together again, that […]

“Now concerning the things whereof ye wrote unto me: It is good for a man not to touch a woman. Nevertheless, to avoid fornication, let every man have his own wife, and let every woman have her own husband. Let the husband render unto the wife due benevolence: and likewise also the wife unto the […]

“Flee fornication. Every sin that a man doeth is without the body; but he that committeth fornication sinneth against his own body. What? know ye not that your body is the temple of the Holy Ghost which is in you, which ye have of God, and ye are not your own? For ye are bought […]

“What? know ye not that he which is joined to an harlot is one body? for two, saith he, shall be one flesh. But he that is joined unto the Lord is one spirit” (1 Corinthians 6:16, 17 KJV). Father, we are so grateful to have a deep and holy relationship with You. We don’t […]
