Read Ezekiel 36, Read 2 Corinthians 11:2
The Lord Jesus Christ is the bridegroom the church is HIS bride. You as a saint of GOD are a part of the bride. Therefore, you are espoused in marriage to the Lord Jesus Christ. You comprise HIS wife. Are YOU faithful to the Lord Jesus Christ? Or have you got a cheating heart?
You may be an individual who does not really want to be saved. You may have thought you did but after considering the cost; you don't' want to pay the price of faith. In fact, you may have a cheating heart. When the excitement of hearing the person's name is gone, it's time to settle in. Don't go looking for someone else to get a thrill. Make sure that you come home to the Lord Jesus Christ and stay there.
If you don't want to pray anymore, is it because you have a cheating heart? If you don't want to fast anymore, is it because you have a cheating heart? If you don't want to dress modest anymore, is it because you have a cheating heart? If you don't want to read your BIBLE, is it because you have a cheating heart? If you don't want to go to church anymore is it because you have a new lover now? Is that new lover the flesh, the world or satan?
The Lord can help you change again so that you are no longer living outside of the place HE has for you. Why do some saints want to lie? Why do some saints want to steal? Why do some saints rob GOD? It's because they are married but with a cheating heart.
Why are there some saints that expect others to do all their work for them? The person may be saved but with a cheating heart. When you want to skip out on GOD for the flesh, you aren't acting like you love the Lord Jesus anymore. When you love anything more than the Lord, aren't you cheating on HIM? Don't be married with a cheating heart!
