🪘💕In our anchor scripture for today, touching a woman that’s not one’s spouse is forbidden. It also means that a woman touching a man that’s not her husband is equally abominable.
🪘💕A MERE TOUCH??
Why would God forbid a “mere touch” of the opposite sex? It’s because what appears as a “mere touch” is so much more than that.
The truth is: there’s a transmission of power; real, tangible and destructive erotic power when you touch a person of the opposite gender that’s not yours by the covenant of marriage.
So, what’s our lesson for today? It’s that as there’s a transmission of negative erotic powers when one touches a man or woman that’s not their marriage partner, so also is there a transmission of positive and constructive erotic energies when spouses touch each other. And this power should be happily harnessed by spouses.
🪘💕HARNESSING YOUR EROTIC POWERS
Everything on earth requires and depends on some form of power to function.
One of the powers your marriage runs on is erotic power. And it’s important that this power is always ON in your union. Not just when you’re in the mood for sexual intimacy.
This means that spouses ought to use the power of touch daily instead of once in a long while as it’s the manner of many couples.
In the garden of Eden, the permanent state of nakedness stirred the spouses to touching one another often. And that constant contact and connection kept their mutual passion, affection and desire for each hot and blazing. This is what it should be in your marriage.
Touching each other keeps you emotionally, romantically and physiologically connected and “hot”.
🪘💕YOUR TOUCH SPEAKS
Touch is comparable to God’s presence in the lives of His redeemed children. Your touch says to your spouse: “I’m with you.” “I love “, “You’re indeed dear to me”, “I find you attractive and huggable.” And much more.
Physical touch is critical to building a strong, thrilling and an ever-young romantic marriage.
Touch covers: holding hands, gentle caresses on the shoulder, cheek or arm.
It entails hugs, embraces, massaging each other, scratching one another’s back, thighs, abdomen, lovezones, etc.
🪘💕TOUCHING ENGENDERS LONGEVITY
According to studies, everyone needs at least 10 meaningful and loving touches every day to live out their lives to it’s fullest expectancy.
Hugging, embracing and touching each other adds years to your lives as spouses. Shouldn’t the knowledge of this encourage you to keep connecting with each by “touch” since it holds such rich rewards?
So, get touching! And don’t stop.
