Today we are no longer slaves without any rights and totally powerless. No situation can compel us so much that we cannot run away as Joseph did.

Be aware of the fact that any relationship outside marriage is a sin against God and choose to keep yourself pure. Stay away from such temptations, avoid possible situations or places that could lead to a sexual act outside marriage.

Talk to your fiancé about choosing to stay pure until marriage, and ask the Lord to keep you from temptation.

Jacob expected that after 7 years of hard work he would be with his beloved Rachel, instead he was deceived and on his wedding day he received Leah. He worked hard for 7 more years for the one he loved. How long do you have to wait? If need be, 7+7 years.

Why wait until marriage to have sexual relationships if you're engaged? Because you never know what’s going to happen on your wedding day. There were many cases where on the wedding day the bride or groom decided, for various reasons, not to marry. Keep yourself pure until you get married.
