We don’t just fall into temptation—we drift there. Slowly. Subtly. Boundaries aren’t about fear; they’re about wisdom, protection, and purpose. If you're serious about honoring your wife, your calling, and your walk with Christ, then you’ve got to take relational boundaries seriously. This is about more than staying out of trouble—it's about staying faithful, staying focused, and staying clean in heart and mind.
Our springboard for today’s discussion is:
"But among you there must not be even a hint of sexual immorality, or of any kind of impurity..." — Ephesians 5:3 (ESV)
The enemy doesn’t always come at you with a sword—sometimes he comes with a smile. A seemingly innocent text. A “harmless” lunch. A growing emotional connection that was never meant to be yours. The fall doesn’t start in the bed; it starts in the mind. It starts with compromise. God’s standard isn’t “how far is too far?” It’s “not even a hint.”
Your marriage is sacred ground. Your mind is a battlefield. Your mission is too important. That means you’ve got to set boundaries—and stick to them. Never alone with another woman. No flirty banter. No secret conversations. It’s not legalism—it’s leadership. Real men lead by protecting what matters most.
Relational boundaries don’t weaken your freedom—they guard it. They don’t hinder love—they protect it. You’re not just guarding against adultery—you’re standing watch over your marriage, your integrity, and your God-given calling.
Question of the Day:
What boundaries do you need to reinforce right now to protect your marriage and your mind?
Let’s Pray:
Father, give us the wisdom and strength to set strong boundaries in our relationships. Help us to honor our wives, protect our minds, and live above reproach for Your glory. In Jesus’ name, Amen.
Let’s Get To Work!
