A message to the spinsters this ‘valentine’ season!

WHAT IS YOUR WORTH?

‘ But you are a chosen people, a royal priesthood, a holy nation, God's special possession, that you may declare the praises of him who called you out of darkness into his wonderful light.’ 1 Pet 2:9

I was doing a research on how valentine originated that is being celebrated every February 14 and I discovered that the initial purpose have been greatly abused today.
It is the day most of our unmarried (and even some married) ladies defile themselves in the name of celebrating ‘love’.
Many, like Esau (Gen25:29-34) sell their destinies cheaply on this day just because of ‘catching fun’ for few minutes that could run into a few hours. A lot are ready to get defiled just for a mere hibiscus flower which some men use to express love to the gullible, with a different motive of just getting them laid.
From our text above, the bible says you are a royal priesthood; you are God’s special possession to declare His praise at all time.
It is a pity that most Christians, especially the Christian ladies don’t know who they represent; they don’t know the value God has placed on them. No wonder the saying that ‘when the purpose of a thing is not known, abuse is inevitable.
Valentine is not a time for kissing, caressing, smooching or having sex (among the unmarried) to show love. Even the married ones are to show it to their spouse, not man/woman friend or colleagues in the office or friends in school.
The way our ladies and even men value themselves will determine how they cherish their body.
Some churches are even planning along on how they will celebrate this day and encourage our youth to defile themselves all in the name of ‘Valentine’. I am not against church doing program for valentine, but the motive behind it should be right must be godly.
Believers should know what their worth is and not allow the wind of the valentine season to sweep them off from the presence of God.
May God help us!
