For fellow believers who struggle with sexual immorality
I recently posted about this, but I think it didn't offer the help I intended so I will lay a list out of what has finally helped me out of all forms of sexual immorality.
- Remove games, shows, social media, or anyother form of content that has sexual themes.
- Replace music with worship or instrumental music.
- Read the Bible everyday
- Pray often, just commune with God, not asking for anything just spending time with him
- Acknowledging that your going to mess up, it's more about the mindstate then the sin itself. Because the goal is to desexualize your brain
- Acknowledge that the hypersexual world we live in today is not normal, and that basically everything regarding sex today is demonic.
- Accept that you can't do it in your strength and that the Holy Spirit will guide you and cleanse your heart one day at a time.
- Trust in his promise that if he started a work in you, he will finish it. So just trust in Jesus, and continue to resist and fail and repeat until eventually your mind is renewed to the point of the sin being completely disgusting to you.
- Pray to God concerning your struggles
- Be willing to leave behind things that you previously enjoyed.
- Understand that marriage isn't a ticket to unlimited sex and that many people abuse the gift of marriage.
- Understand that many forms of sex today are actually sinful
- Learn to run from sin with your eyes.
- Become sensitive to sexual sin. If she looks like a pornstar she is a pornstar(This one's going to get me in trouble)
It reminds me of these verses in the Bible.
Matthew 11:28-30: Come to me, all you who are weary and burdened, and I will give you rest. 29 Take my yoke upon you and learn from me, for I am gentle and humble in heart, and you will find rest for your souls. 30 For my yoke is easy and my burden is light.”
Ezekiel 36:26-27 (NIV): God promises to put a new spirit within you and cause you to walk in His statutes.
Zechariah 4:6 (NIV): "...‘Not by might nor by power, but by my Spirit,’ says the Lord Almighty".
