Lesson 7
Guarding Against Adultery
Key #3 Affection Protection for a Man
The freeway traffic had come to a complete stop and there was no relief in sight. Frustrated, and obviously nervous, the man held the phone out the window and shouted to the driver next to him, “Will you please tell my wife why I’m late?”
When men desire affection, they often mean the acts that lead to intimacy. Experts estimate that a male has a sexual thought every 40 to 50 seconds. For a woman to keep her husband’s attention at home, she must be conscious of the way that he views affection.
In I Corinthians 7:2-5, God gave the following command: “…since there is so much immorality, each man should have his own wife, and each woman her own husband. The husband should fulfill his marital duty to his wife, and likewise the wife to her husband. The wife’s body does not belong to her alone but also to her husband. In the same way, the husband’s body does not belong to him alone but also to his wife. Do not deprive each other except by mutual consent and for a time, so that you may devote yourselves to prayer. Then come together again so that Satan will not tempt you because of your lack of self-control.”
Notice again the first phrase, “…since there is so much immorality…”. The reason the Holy Spirit inspired this passage for the people of that day is entirely the same reason that He has preserved the words for us in this day. Adultery continues to be a blight on the world and the divorce rate hovers around 50% every year. Immorality is as rampant today as it was back then, and these words are just as relevant to us as they were to them. Give special attention to the following three parts of the passage above.
- Duty – Couples must understand that sexual affection is not just a pleasurable side effect to marriage, it is their spiritual “duty.” To fail at this duty is to place a spiritual stumbling block in front of your mate.
With the dominance of immorality in our culture, it cannot be stressed enough how important it is for women to fulfill this duty. Every day the world tries to pull your husband from your arms and into the world of self-gratification. He is being enticed from every direction to leave you and fulfill his needs for affection elsewhere. He cannot buy a loaf of bread without being tempted by the perfect forms of women on the magazine covers that line the checkout lane. He cannot drive down the highway without being lured into ungodly thoughts by suggestive billboards. TV exploits his needs. Radio encourages him to lust. On and on the pressures mount. If you are not aggressively working to keep his attention on you, he will be distracted. - Possession – Because women often seek affection in different ways than men, the needs of a man are not generally high on her desire list. But, when God commanded couples to become “one flesh” in Genesis 2:24, and when He inspired the words of our passage above, He expected His law of possession to be honored. Once a couple has been united in marriage, they are one in God’s eyes. At that point, the wife’s body belongs just as much to her husband as it does to her. Too many women withhold sexual fulfillment as a punishment or a bargaining tool. They manipulate their partner by refusing to meet his most basic needs. A wife must not steal from her husband.
(Important Note: The law of possession does not give men a license to do anything they choose. God calls a husband to honor his wife’s body just as much as he honors his own body and as much as Christ honors the body of His bride, the church. See Ephesians 5:25-33.) - Deprive – The Holy Spirit warns against depriving your spouse of the sexual affection that he needs. To do so is to allow Satan to present a temptation for which there is little defense. The marital bond was designed to be a safety net that keeps partners from falling into the pit of unfaithfulness. When a man is deprived of this safety net, his wife could be guilty of an allegiance with Satan. Help your marriage survive, don’t deprive.
