The message in this quote is not just a suggestion—it is a command pattern seen all throughout Scripture: when it comes to lust and temptation, God does not tell you to fight it… He tells you to flee.

Look at the life of Joseph in Genesis 39. When temptation came through Potiphar’s wife, Joseph did not stand there trying to “rebuke” lust or reason with it. The Bible says:

“And it came to pass… she caught him by his garment, saying, Lie with me: and he left his garment in her hand, and fled, and got him out.” (Genesis 39:12, KJV)

He ran. He left everything behind—even his reputation, even his garment—because he understood something many people today ignore:

Some battles are won by running, not resisting in place.

The Word of God confirms this again in 1 Corinthians 6:18:

“Flee fornication…”

Not manage it.
Not negotiate with it.
Not pray while staying in it.

Flee it.

Why? Because lust is not a small temptation—it is a consuming fire that destroys souls, homes, and destinies. Samson played with it and lost his strength. David lingered and fell into sin. But Joseph ran—and kept his integrity.

Child of God, hear this clearly:

Temptation will talk.
It will look appealing.
It will feel urgent.

But sin always hides a hook behind the bait.

That is why your victory is not in how strong you are—
your victory is in how fast you obey God and get out.

Jesus said:

“Watch and pray, that ye enter not into temptation…” (Matthew 26:41, KJV)

Notice—He didn’t say “stand in it and prove your strength.”
He said don’t enter it.

So when that message comes…
When that image appears…
When that person draws you in…

RUN.

Run from the conversation.
Run from the place.
Run from the habit.

Because every step away from sin is a step closer to God.

Joseph ran from lust—and ended up in purpose.
If you run today, you’re not losing…

you’re preserving your soul. 🔥
Yes that is true in

1 Thessalonians 5:22-24 KJV
Abstain from all appearance of evil.

[23] And the very God of peace sanctify you wholly; and I pray God your whole spirit and soul and body be preserved blameless unto the coming of our Lord Jesus Christ.

[24] Faithful is he that calleth you, who also will do it.

The phrase "destroy destiny" is synonymous to DEATH. You should try and read more

] Read Various cultural/religious texts and gain more insight..the proof is already written in black and white.

Moses raised a serpent and asked people to look up to it so that they would be saved from an injury.
The serpent is also an illustration of persuasion to know good and evil...

So you need the serpent structure (in the cranium) to eat the fruit of the knowledge of good an evil so that you can be able to provide solutions)..

The question is , have you ever seen what the human brain looks like?

lack of sleep or anxiety directly affects the prefrontal cortex of the brain, responsible for will power.

apart from the bible story but in real life scenario joesph missed a golden opportunity to wealth and power by controlling the kpekus of a powerful ministers wife,it is a rare opportunity not to be missed that will open doors when used with wisdom or backfire most dramatically if misused

So what are you driving at? We should not pray against temptations?
Joseph was even lucky to escape, because they got him arrested and took him to prison. If not she will get him. What if in a situation where all your livelihood to feed your family depends on that job with that kind of temptation? And there's no way out except you quit the job. Now, tell me what you'll do in this kind of case? Maybe you're a single mother of five, no support from anywhere. Please continue telling me what you'll do o. Or maybe you as a man, you travelled to America and Trump's wife as your MD is wooing you, and she has already promised you heaven and earth including your permanent stay with your family in Nigeria, please what will you do? Remember, nothing happens without God's plans kiss
This is why the black man is the butt of mankind and the world. No respect from anywhere because na anywhere belle face as far as black man is concerned.
Do u even need to be godly to abstain from what u know is evil. Well let me shock u, u don't need God to do what is right all u need is conviction - something a black man lacks.
Muslims girls in France have refused to go to school because they wouldn't allow them wear hijab, Muslims wont take capsule medication because the gelatin in them comes from pork. These are people convinced about their faith and are unyielding irrespective what's thrown at them. That's why Islam is spreading fast here in the west NOT because it's true but because people noticed the conviction.

Oyinbo people don't joke with conviction. Wherever they see one, they respect it. because they themselves know they conquered the whole world thru conviction.
Unfortunately they look at black man and see no evidence of conviction in anything. The black man stands for nothing of value. Black man is ruled by his emotions and how he feels at that moment, nobody respect such character.

Is it everyone who falls into immorality that dies?
Did King David die for his adulterous act with Bathsheba?
You just want to type something that is not meaningful.
Simply put sexual immorality will surely affect the one involved but telling people that they will die for committing fornication or adultery will only lead many astray because it doesn't.
God only said He won't allow immoral people in His kingdom. 1Corinthans 6:9-10

Jesus is not from our planet that is why he had nothing to do with SEX but we are descendants of Adam created to procreate (engage in sexual pleasures) so if we are talking about SEX Jesus is not an option because he never had anything to do with SEX as a perfect spirit son of God who has a mission to accomplish on planet earth.

So back to what you want to teach David committed adultery and he didn't die instantly therefore stop lying if you don't understand God's word.

Jesus has everything to do with SEX and other topics in your head

He was there when Adam was created

He existed before Abraham

He delivers teaching on marriage, adultrey etc

In the beginning was the Word, and the Word was with God, and the Word was God. 2 He was with God in the beginning. 3 Through him all things were made; without him nothing was made that has been made. 4 In him was life, and that life was the light of all mankind. 5 The light shines in the darkness, and the darkness has not overcome[a] it.

Now we know that you have a demon! Abraham died, as did the prophets, yet you say, ‘If anyone keeps my word, he will never taste death.’ 53 Are you greater than our father Abraham, who died? And the prophets died! Who do you make yourself out to be?” 54 Jesus answered, “If I glorify myself, my glory is nothing. It is my Father who glorifies me, of whom you say, ‘He is our God.’[a] 55 But you have not known him. I know him. If I were to say that I do not know him, I would be a liar like you, but I do know him and I keep his word. 56 Your father Abraham rejoiced that he would see my day. He saw it and was glad.” 57 So the Jews said to him, “You are not yet fifty years old, and have you seen Abraham?” 58 [b]Jesus said to them, “Truly, truly, I say to you, before Abraham was, I am.

Interesting that an all-powerful God repeatedly tells humans to run from temptation instead of removing it. If the solution is always "flee," then the credit belongs more to human self-control than to divine intervention. Joseph ran because Joseph chose to run, not because God made the temptation disappear.
it's called Freewill, it has being built in humans from the beginning.

What the devil is fighting is your freewill, he wants to subdue it so that you can bow to him.

If you look deeply into yourself, you will notice that you are like God because you carry His image.

In that same western world, we've seen and heard about womenn calling the police for their husbands just because their husbands did not alow them have peace with their boyfriends, and lastly the man will arrested and thrown out of his house, just to allow his wife enjoy with her boyfriend.

Ọmọ Jesus is not involved in SEX we are talking about SEXUAL immorality and its imperfect humans that needs this.

Did Jesus run away from any woman?

The answer is NO!

The only recorded temptation Jesus had with a woman was the case of one promiscuous Samaritan woman while Jesus was driving the conversation towards preaching about an acceptable form of worship {John 4:22} the woman was thinking about the young goodlooking Jewish man talking to her and the type of water he meant. John 4:15
Jesus never run away from her but quickly changed the topic asking for the woman's husband {John 4:16} trying to continue the seeming romantic conversation she said she had no husband {John 4:17} then Jesus told her all what she's hiding that's the time she realized she's been talking to a prophet! John 4:19

So Jesus never run away from adulterous women instead he stood his ground and declared God's message to them but imperfect humans can't stand such most especially when the woman involved has authority over you.

What i said is if you have authority to send are away there is no sense in living your office simply because one woman whom you could easily ban from entering your office is seducing you!

Stop exposing your level of ignorance

He delivers teachings on marriage yet never married. He is the master of all topics

He doesnt need to experience them all to instruct you on how to live.

We are Jesus followers not David followers

The word Christian = Christ + followers

The passover is just about the Endocrine system of the body.

When the messenger(hormones) needs other systems(blood,fluid) for optimal body function. When the other organ systems are not in synchronism with the Endocrine system, the body is as good as dead.

The promiscuous Samaritan woman at Jacob's well asked Jesus for what kind of water? John 4:15
Why did Jesus suddenly change the subject? John 4:16

Later you will claim being knowledgeable.😁

If a promiscuous woman meets a lonely young and handsome man who asked her for a drink what do you think could be going on in her mind?
Ọmọ humble yourself and learn!
Jews (Jesus' people) don't talk to people from Samaria so whatever makes Jesus talk to that promiscuous woman she felt Jesus is trying to woo her not until he asked for her husband!🙂

oga no legally married man will be thrown out of his house because his wife is unfaithful. stop with the lies.

The case is usually the couples are divorced or separated and the husband has no right to the joint house anymore. so whatever the ex-wife does with the house is none of his business. same way the ex-wife cannot barge into your new home anymore without your permission.
stop will all this fake victim mentality, the law applies both ways.

example is kanye west demanding to enter the house he paid for to see his kids without first asking permission from the legal occupant of the house- his ex- wife kim kardashian. she refused him entry because she was with her partner when kanye came calling.

You must get rid of fats blocking your vessels/organs to allow flow of oxygen.
When organs are starved of oxygen, they die. Bring a gift from the peace offering. An offering made by fire, (it's not an offering destroyed by fire....) so you need oxygen for Endocrine system to function properly.
Most people die from a primary root...; hypoxemia(low oxygen in blood)
