Bible verses about "desires" | WPNT

Romans 1:24-27

24 Therefore God also gave them up, through the cravings of their hearts for vileness, to the degrading of their bodies among themselves 25 —they had exchanged the truth of God for the lie, and worshipped and served the creature rather than the Creator, who is blessed forever. Amen. 26 For this reason God gave them up to degrading passions; in fact even their females exchanged the natural sexual function for that against nature; 27 likewise also the males, abandoning the natural use of the female, were inflamed in their lust toward one another, males committing the disgraceful act with males, and receiving in themselves the due penalty for their error.

1 Corinthians 6:18

18 Flee from fornication! Every sin that a man may commit is outside the body, but he who fornicates sins against his own body.

Romans 13:13-14

13 Let us walk properly, as in the day, not in carousing and drunkenness, not in sexual orgies and licentiousness, not in strife and jealousy. 14 But put on the Lord Jesus Christ, and make no provision for the flesh, with a view to lusts.

Matthew 6:33

33 Rather, seek first the kingdom of God and His righteousness, and all these things will be added to you.
