Joshua Eze hi Joshua. Thank you for sharing and being transparent. I dealt with masterbation a few months ago. I thought well I guess this is it. but that's not true. I stopped one day. and did not look back.i don't want to again. that's the cycle it left me in. I go to the gym often too or workout and keep myself preoccupied. it's true idle mind is the Devils playground. some ppl don't get it. but I constantly pray that God would help me during this season. since I am also waiting to get married. it's not easy..😨 lol. but it will be worth it in the end. 😄😉👍👊 So God bless you Josh please keep me in your prayers. praying for u as well.🙏✌
Greetings man of God. I just started today watching something of your work...and it is right on point..But I will say the truth of God's will for our lives takes the ability and faith to endure it all.It takes the spiritual insights of who God is and who he sees us as...learning to see what God sees...any who...GN
With a wife overseas and being lonely, bored at times and with my hormones raging I fall deep into masterbation and porn. It's so so hard. Pray for me, anyone. Amen
have you ever noticed that these preachers and churches give long speeches about how you should not have sex but they never give speeches about how you should be keeping Sabbath and the other 9 commandments? It is because they don't keep them.
Nana Love, be greatly encouraged sis. God loves you and He will never leave you nor forsake you. Don't ever give up, the victory is already your's!!! May God bless you.
+Greg Zeno Like the brother says, you gotta get busy, fill your life with work, surround yourself with godly people, help the church etc etc..you'll start to find that the more you keep yourself busy doing things for God, the less you'll even think about sexual things
+Greg Zeno ..Stay busy and pray my brother, pray pray pray, get on your knees each time, whenever you come across anything of a sexual nature, run away, do not let your eyes be drawn to it. Even if it means getting rid of your computer, TV, Iphone or whatever.
Greg Zeno ..This is why you need to pray everyday my brother, get serious about God and he'll get serious about setting you free from the spirit of lust, may the lord guide you and be with you, I am praying for you my brother.
I'm watching this today in 2017, after having fallen to sexual sin. I can say that this is the most depressing feeling and one of the lowest points. It feels exactly as you described. You are enticed, you fall to it, then you don't feel like you should or can go to God, so you feel empty, and then the cycle happens again. Each time this has happened I feel lower and lower. But I am going to talk to God today, I believe He can help me make it through. I believe He loves me.
csauls I myself was falling for this because I thought i was going to get love from a guy because I tought he truly cared for me. But everytime i went back to that same situation knowing so well that i should not be going to it , i cama back more and more empty especially when i felt ashamed to pray and ask for forgiveness and I would then falk back into my depression and hit the bottle. a cycle of empytness at the bottom of a bottle and at the end of sexual sin always the same cycle. I am now focusing my life with Jesus and the Most High and even though i long for that love for companioship Jesus strenghtens me everyday and I have been truly learning so much . keep praying seek your love from Jesus and the Most High and your life gets better.
God's love for you is as big as the universe. It's unshakeable and he has a legion of angels and extra back up on standby just for you. Everyday !! Just go to our loving father God and confess all your sins (sex, lies, gossiping or anything else). Ask for the Holy Spirit to guide you henceforth. Then show your real contrition by cutting all ties with the person or situations that make you stumble. Otherwise, you will remain a a treadmill to nowhere. You cannot steal often and ask a Judge to let you off each time. Satan (Harsatan "the accuser") will use your guilt and your complicity to manipulate you into despair and more sins. Jesus already nailed all your sins to the cross, wiped you clean with his precious blood, and restored you to Gods original plan as described in Genesis - be fruitful and multiply by SUBDUING and having DOMINION over EVERYTHING on earth. Hod bless you.
I stayed 5 years without masturbating, but I neglected my spiritual duties and I have relapsed lately. I'm desperated, sad and full of guilt, but I believe God will make me win again. Help me praying for me.
Actually no. Repent and get baptized and pray for a spouse.. and THEN God will give the best man/woman for you. You must come to marriage being clean. So if you're still in sin you must be cleansed by the only way possible: the blood of Christ. Stand up to your sins by loving Jesus more than your sin and flesh. He must increase and we must decrease. "Watch and pray, that you enter not into temptation: the spirit indeed is willing, but the flesh is weak." (Matthew 26:41 KJV) So PRAY PRAY PRAY and RESIST always. FLEE the devil and he will depart from you. FLEE. Anytime you're tempted, get busy! Leave that chair and computer, leave that room. Go walk, go run, go cook, do something anything that will separate you from acting upon that sin. Go sit with your mom your family, call a friend whatever. But most importantly do not starve your spirit, that way satan cannot overpower you, for there is POWER in the Word of God. And you know it. Keep praying and reading the Word, and seek counsel from people you know have overcome this sin, whether it be a friend or online such as these youtube videos. Amen brother Bruno. Keep the good fight of faith and God bless you all.
Praying for you! Stay close to God, and it'll get easier. Even through a relapse, God's grace is sufficient for you and He is fighting with and for you. Yeah, it's a daily fight, an exhausting fight, but you've already won because God said so! "Where sin abounded, grace did much more abound." Hope this helps as you continue on this journey in purity :)
It makes sense because fasting starves the flesh and sexual sin is of the flesh. But as we are starving the flesh we HAVE to sow into the spirit by reading HIS word and maintaing daily communion with God!!!
Samuel Kitandwe so funny you should say that because I’m fasting starting today for the purpose of overcoming sexual sins. It’s almost like your message was confirmation.
The wage of sin is death for sure there's consequences after someone sin...he pull himself away from the protection of God and the enemy can easily get him due to the door that person has open in his/her life...thats why repent and renounce all bad thing and ask God to deliver you and read and meditate the word...
Here is how I overcame and still overcome sexual sin everyday. Worship and prayer/entering into Gods Presence. When I first started off I had a lot of temptations, I would fall into sin because I would run to pornography or to have sex instead of running to my secret place and entering his presence. When I began worshipping and praying when I had strong temptations, it would rip them away. His presence burns every sin. Fasting will definitely help with those long term addictions as well.
Praying for you Keishamae! Don't beat yourself up, because that's what the enemy wants. He wants you to condemn yourself with guilt and shame, but God loves you in spite of your struggles. Overcoming sexual sin boils down to exhibiting self-control and spiritual discipline. Understand your weaknesses and avoid putting yourself in those tempting situations, which in turn will allow God to strengthen your resolve. Without self-control and spiritual discipline (prayer), one thing can quickly lead to another. Some people subscribe to the flawed theory, "Look but don't touch, touch but don't taste, taste but don't swallow." That is a recipe for disaster. Momma used to say if you can't handle the heat...stay out of the kitchen! I have a ton of videos on my channel that deal with this. Be Blessed! 😃
Keishamae and Melissa I PROMISE it is easier than how people make it appear... there are biblical steps to take and a deep of understanding which when used makes it easier to fight
Keishamae Thomas One thing that has helped me is keeping my focus on God. Before I came to God and fully gave myself to him my mind was fill of lust. I could see a guy walking down the street and that would send my mind wandering. I needed to first get my mind on God and fully on him. I had to get rid of music and only watch sermons because of how bad my mind was. When lust tries to pop up or my body was not in line with my spirit I had to get a hold of God right then and there. Hope this helped you.😊 praying for you!
Keishamae, I found this to be a struggle and I think that once we decide that we want to be free, we out number our flesh. Our Flesh, Our Spirit being, and our Holy Spirit...once we decide to which side we want to please we overcome the other ( but it has to go beyond just words). I told myself that I want to side with God and what's right so I tapped into His power, which went beyond my own, to do so. I turned from everything that presented an opportunity dor me to be fed lust (music, movies, books, ppl, social media, etc) Then I watched clean movies, listened yo christian radio music, read scriputes that targeted my struggle, read scripturs about God's power, and I talked to God, asking for his help and strength. No, it wasn't all roses and sunshine at first, but it got easier. However, once free, don't go back bcuz it will be harder the next time. I love you and pray for me as I pray for you
mess up our thinking.. really bad. there was a sunday in church and a sexy lady sit beside us with with mini skirt. you dont want to look because you want to hear the preaching. all of the sudden it becomes a distraction... hate those situations....
Whn I whack off to particular porn acts I get get an orgasm but don’t get guilty anymore which tells me something mysterious about Dad who is God all mighty
Bros wer red blooded males, would be on too it if she was encourage to dress not so sexy but we have dad to talk too about his very sexy daughters tht r a visual pleasure for us alll. I’m glad I can think off it till dad says nah son whch means hel empower us up to either, ither this I know he knows tht went flesh and gives us “HS” for council so we don’t act or anyfing else
As a survivor of molestation and incest this really spoke to me. I've been battling sexual addiction for the past 11 years now, I've been caught in a cycle of self defeat and I want out!! Pray the me💔
The story of Mary Magdelene will inspire you to realise that God knows your past and what was done to you but loves you with a tremendous love and will give you victory! It's guaranteed! check out this message that speaks about that th-cam.com/video/g2gSBMTJzHQ/w-d-xo.html
Poor baby. It's going to be okay. At the age of 5 I was molested by my own brother and it wasn't until I was 25 that God released me from that bondage and healed me. Get into a good bible based church that is on the up and up and never look back. Stop dating for a while and take some time to connect with God who lives inside of you. You can be healed from this. Im praying for you gorgeous one.
antoinette wilson: Well said. This may be a subject of taboo for some people, but there are men & women, both young and old, married and single, who are struggling mightily in the area of sexual purity. The Bible tells us that we should not be ignorant of the enemy's devices. Let’s be intentional about exposing the devil, and help those who are bound in sexual sin realize that the blood of Jesus has the power to break every chain! 🙏🏾 th-cam.com/video/WX4Vd6-1EF8/w-d-xo.html
I recently dumped my boyfriend because that's all he wanted. I want a man of God in my life and I will be patient about that. All I know is I am done and although I'm still figuring out my purpose in life, God will lead me in the right way.
I'm a 24yr old virgin man and I'm sick of falling victim to sexual sin. It's extremely hard not to give in when you feel "left behind." I'm not messing up anymore, I'm doing everything I can to stop sexual sin because I'm getting married soon. I'm remaining pure for marriage no matter what.
I dont want to be boastful, be it far from me Lord but it seems that the sexual sin is the only sin I really struggle with. It is so powerful and the urge to commit it is so strong it's absolutely unbelievable. I believe that the sexual sin is by far the hardest sin to defeat, by far. King David himself who had an amazing humble heart for God couldn't resist it. This sin is incredible. Praise God for everyone who has concquered it in the name of Jesus Christ. Amen.
I still haven't overcome my sexual sin, I do it when I'm depressed or anxious. I know it's a sin and I don't even like it but I just do it anyway, may God have mercy on me.
Flavio Sousa God will, but you need to motivate yourself and want this to come to an end...you need to make the decision and start taking actions snd God will help and strengthen....be encouraged in Jesus name
Flavio Sousa - It will help to remember that your body is a temple of the Holy Spirit in you which is from God. You are not your own. 1 Corinthians 6:19. Use this mantra each time the urge hits you. It doesn't matter if you still fall to temptation. Keep using it. Eventually the word of God will triumph over your old pattern. I was in bondage for 34 years until I devoted my life to God through Jesus. It took 2 years to break my cycle of anxiety, despair, poor sleep, and sexual release. Now I stand firm on the Word of God when I am anxious because I KNOW that he watches over his Word to perform it. Isaiah 55:11-12
Flavio Sousa I would like to recommend if I may , a video that I feel will help you with your strong hold ....TH-cam "Christian and Masturbation" >( channel MotivatingU2win)
We have two persons inside ourselfes, one wich loves sin and one wich hates it. This is one of the keys of getting free. Lets say you eat a delicious meal at a chinese restaurant, then you find out it was cat meat, you would most probably want to vomit. Yet when hungry we do things that are nasty and we do not want, we dampen our feelings so much down that we even will eat a cat just to feel well. Thats the same thing with addiction to lust. You do not want it, you simply do not want it. Dont give up.. change your mindset, accept the pure side in you and hate the sinful side inside of you and you can change. visit my ch.. and blg for more info.
this is the first time me seeing hearing & discovering this.....& this was so POWERFUL,like he said & she said "SIN" will ALWAYS make you feel guilty & if it was so good it wouldn't make you feel guilty.
You got to fast. The more you fast and be on constant prayer the more you feed the spirit and weaken the flesh. The flesh is weak is but the spirit is willing. Can you speak in toungs? If you can as you're fasting speak in toungs then do spiritual warfare by commanding the demons out of your body.
He is talking RIGHT! I've been abstinent for 2 years and its not that bad. However, I do miss it but I've come too far to stop now. if it's God's will for me to get married then so be it. Until then, my body belongs to the Lord. BTW..I'm 37 years old and at my sexual peak but I'm still holding on. God is able to keep me from falling.
I find the abstinent part easy but masturbation is the challenge. I am so aware now what enters my eye to an extent that I have stopped watching most TV series and most type of films for they mostly contain a lot of sexual content like the bible says" its better to cut your hand off to stop it from sinning" so this is my approach. I continue to pray to God about it but I too have to play my part by being careful what I watch or read as the devil is always ready at the door waiting for it to open.
Thank you so very much for your words. I have been stricken with sexual sin from a very young age. I have struggled for many years trying to rid myself of it and always felt guilty when I failed and did not stop cold turkey. Thank you for letting me know it is a process and giving me solid steps to overcome this sin. Bless you.
I regret losing my virginity and having multiple sexual partners when I was in my early twenties. Now at 26 I feel this constant loneliness and every day is a battle. Stay pure at all cost and don't watch porn. Don't start. Run away from it.
I'm there too brother God can still redeem us for our wives, He still has a plan He can use our failure to make us more determined to cling closely to Him and to be examples to others
I am so aware now what enters my eye to an extent that I have stopped watching most TV series and most type of films for they mostly contain a lot of sexual content like the bible says" its better to cut your hand off to stop it from sinning" so this is my approach. I continue to pray to God about it but I too have to play my part by being careful what I watch or read as the devil is always ready at the door waiting for it to open. As soon as the thought comes to mind pray and get up go take a walk, shower or find another form of distracting yourself and in time you will overcome it. Also truly ask yourself "Do I love God, Do I?" because if you do you can resist this. You can try what I have mentioned plus lots prayer, worship, reading the word and fasting.
Loved the realness in this video. I've struggles with sexual sin since I was 4. It's not something you just turn off and can walk away from. Like he said, it's a process. Little by little you slow down and break it but only with the strength of Jesus.
Mines started at 6 or 7 it creeped in by first playing little house games with other kids letting them touch on me ..... and then I found my moms porn collection at 9 it was a done deal after that I’ve struggled since then and I’m 23 years old .....
Thanks for sharing this video. I'm currently starving the beast and I'm on day 45. I've noticed other insecurities coming out in my emotional life that I used to mask with sexual sin. The layers start to peel away slowly and sometimes the urge to relapse gets stronger. But like you said, having a purpose is power in the face of lust. Please pray for me. God bless!
You got to fast. The more you fast and be on constant prayer the more you feed the spirit and weaken the flesh. The flesh is weak is but the spirit is willing. Can you speak in toungs? If you can as you're fasting speak in toungs then do spiritual warfare by commanding the demons out of your body.
SIMINI Remove whatever is causing you to be tempted, whether it's your internet access, social media, TV, or whatever. You don't need to go all out. I Put Pornblockers on my computer. Deleted safari internet off of my IPhone, I delete My Instagram app before I go to bed every night. The Bible says flee from sexual immorality, and that's how you do it. Fasting and prayer is VERY powerful as well.
+Hayden Rose I hear you. He was right. We need to starve it. Believe me it is true. If you feed the born and sexual appetite, it grows like s fire. I had a problem with this and its true. Read the word and get closer to him. But be on guard, the enemy will know when you are getting closer to our father and he will throw everything at you and the kitchen sink. Mark my word(s) he is a roaring lion running and seeking to devour. So GET IN THE LIVING WORD of our father. And last. Put on some soft worship music when you sleep.
How do I overcome sexual sin as a 27 year old virgin? 1. PRAYER PRAYER PRAYer!!! 2.I declare God's word when deceptive thoughts come: e.g My body is the temple of the Holy Spirit, I have the mind of Christ. I rebuke the thoughts and send them back to the devil. 3. I may have to do a lot of rebuking and epenting if I entertained sexual thoughts through what I read, what I see on social media or tv, what I listen to....e.t.c. Above all let Jesus be the center of your sexual life. Only in him will you be able to overcome this sin.
Sister I'm going through a same I'm virgin 28 yr old now but sometimes I tempetd by social media ,tv but I'm keeping praying for that some how I feel that's why my career and personal life is not in track
3 Simple tips 1. You need the guidance of the holy spirit day by day 2. Constant prayer for your struggles 3. Fasting Jesus he is a chains breaker When Jesus set you free you are truly free. Thank you Jesus I am free. 🙏🙌🙏
I have a problem with wanting to be wanted. I'm almost 23 and a virgin but I have treaded close to crossing the line and I've been tempted and been in appropriate in my thoughts. Please also pray for me to overcome this weakness.
Wanting to be wanted... That feels like it says a lot, perhaps more than just about sexual temptation. It's possible I'm reading more into it than there is there, but I can't help but think that might suggest you're wanting to be loved and accepted for who you are. That's a journey of vulnerability. Are you familiar with Brene Brown? You might look her up on TH-cam if this resonates with you at all.
Remain strong there are many out there that wish they were your position believe me it's the best thing. And u are not missing nothing out there.. I regret i even started it. Biggest regret.. I pray God blesses you with a good man..❤
Dear let the Bible be close to you all the time, bind the word of God around your neck and write them on your heart. i have been struggling this sexual sin and i pray God will deliver me. i believe that if i keep the word of God in me i will overcome it.
Whoever is reading this please pray for me... I'm struggling really hard with this... I keep relapsing constantly... Please think of me when you are praying. I really want to get out of this... Thank you so much...
I know what u going thru. God is with you. You need to take a stand against the enemy and put every thought under the subjection of the Holy Spirit, it a daily walk by cutting the flesh and yes the temptation would come, but you have to speak God word over it. Jesus have already won the victory so you would not have to go thru it.
When he said “Who are you doing it for” it really hit me. How can I continue to sin when God loves me and his only request was don’t sin. God loves all of us, once you really take that in you will feel some way about going against your creators will. It’s never worth it brothers and sisters, the guilt is too strong.
Answer to title's question is easy: God provided (non-porn) occasional masturbation as the solution for the drive to have sex. NO fornicator goes to Heaven. www.docdroid.net/luebEz1/the-only-2-things-you-must-know.doc
Really wanna meet you guys who commented, I am just happy to see how people want change in their life and run to God at first, be all blessed. And to us who struggle in a certain addiction may God help us all.
Lynette Smith instead praying for your wants and needs. Try praying for knowledge and understanding. To pray for a husband is to pray for something to fufil your physical body the flesh. Pray in the spirit and ask God for spiritual eyes so you can see things from God's point of view.
Lynette Smith Faith without action is dead. Put yourself in situations where you are more likely to meet a husband. But not sinful environments like the club lol
Try praying for people that you know who are married. Whether they have great marriages or broken marriages. I believe as you sow seeds of prayer on behalf of their marriages, God will turn your focus from you to others. Your husband will come as you continue to be busy about the things of God. Try not to make marriage an idol sis. Blessings
I have overcomed a long battle that I struggled with for many years. I use to be addicted to pornographic videos and I struggled with masturbation. But now I have overcome it and I'm so happy.
Happy to see this from a Young man. You’re right on point. I know much older men who are STILL struggling with sexual sin. So, it doesn’t get better with age. You have to start with a renewed mind. Remember this, SIN ALWAYS TAKES YOU FURTHER THAT YOU THINK YOU WILL GO. It will lead to destruction. And that is the enemies plan for you. Be blessed.
Sexual sin is the hardest sin to conquer for me personally. Even me giving my life to the Lord on 7/22/18 and through the studies that I've done since esp in Proverbs(31 day challenge) and other scriptures, I still succumbed to the the sin of lust and adultery three weeks later. Temporary pleasure isn't the way. I told people about my breakthrough and I don't want to be hypocritical to the people that I know and love. Pray for me❤
At 2:12 he said, “short, short, leggings pants..” sometimes people don’t know that they may look good but are tempting other to lust at their bodies. So be mindful of how you dress. Is it to get people attention or just to look respectful. This I believe goes both ways male or female... ( I’m speaking to believers on this topic. Unbelievers don’t feel wrong for how they dress. )
I loved the speakers' use of imagery. The idea of "starving" a sin is very appropriate.. Romans 6:11 states, "Even so consider yourselves to be dead to sin, but alive to God in Christ Jesus." How does something die? You starve it. Thank you so much for this video. I also think if anyone is on here struggling, the fact that you are seeking help and watching this video is a wonderful start. Thank you iamunplugged! I am going to watch more :)
wow!! wish my soon to be ex husband could hear your words. our marriage is over because of his porn addiction, and he doesnt even understand that. 8 years down the tubes. His sickness nearly killed me, but God saved me and gave me courage to leave. To cut the soul ties. So many people out there with hidden sin, and they just cant be open and honest about it. Cause when you truly love someone, you can forgive and go past. But when people stand in pride, they ruin themselves and all around themselves. Sad but true! I am a survivor and now i love myself again! God is good, and yep....we all need to be held accountable and have friends who hold us to it!
God would never tell you to leave your husband stay with him, and pray for him and show him scriptures that will encourage him to consider his behavior and pray to God to heal your marriage, give you patience while enduring this frustration and pray that God would give him awareness. Don't give up on your marriage, remember what is written that if you divorce your spouse and marry another you have committed adultery. Jesus says that all adulterers shall never enter the kingdom of God.
Divorce over porn? Porn aint right, but I don't think you have to divorce over porn. It's not real physical cheating. You should have encouraged him or he should have gotten help to beat the addiction.
Please be aware that there are lost demons involved and anyone dealing with these situations needs deliverance. Seek deliverance even if it’s self deliverance on TH-cam.
This video has blessed so many lives! We need more people to speak on this subject that is sometimes seen as "taboo" if you will. What a beautiful thing it is to see people walking in God's righteousness and experiencing the FREEDOM only HE can give.
bruh, thats real spill right there, God bless u brother for your courage to speak on that, its a huge problem for all of us men out there in this over sexualized world we live in
God I needed this!!!! I'm so glad he didn't say asking God will make you quit but said you have to desire something greater(marriage) than the here and now and God will help you in that process but it's up to you
Thank you so much.... Being someone who struggles daily with confusion about my sexuality, this can be hard because I can be tempted by either gender and I really need to keep my heart submitted and obedient to God's word. I used to be enslaved by pornography but HALLELUJAH PRAISE God I have been freed from that sin.... And the sins that go along with it. It has been a long journey, and even now at times my heart gets a little bit too loose or undisciplined..... And it's only God's grace, man. Only His love and His power and the blood of Jesus that has made me pure. Amen!!
This video was great! I appreciate your authenticity. Lately, I've been neglecting my relationship with God and I found myself stuck in this trap for a lil while now and watching this video helped me realize what's more important. Which is serving God, not my fleshly desires.
God's kindness leads you to repentance. (Rom 2:4) Know that you are SO loved. So loved. Don't run away from Him. Seek Him. You will find Him. He will show you the why of your life. He will set you free.
Something that helps me is watching nde videos of hell testimonies, when you hear these testimonies it snaps you back into reality and makes you feel like there’s ABSOLUTELY NOTHING IN THIS WORLD that is worth the eternal agony of being 100% separated from our almighty loving God!
I cannot believe this was a random video that just happened to load and it is exactly what I am going through! this blew me away, amazing video. My issue is you try to quit and you may get some success, but then you are dragged back farther and deeper than before. Its so difficult, I don't know what to do.
It's so true... Satan wants us to feel like since we have sinned we aren't worthy of His ❤ - there is a great prayer for those who have had their sexuality activated by molestation or sexual assault..
when you feel you cant control any longer n just wana do it .Just fall on your knees before God.the lust starts losing its power even before you start Praying. and the only expression of the joy of overcoming that powerful Sin is by Prasing God.
Wow! He gave such a powerful message. And I know this video was from 2015 but then WOW! 37 yrs of age and he was a virgin? I've never heard that come from a male. But I thank him for preaching such a wonderful message. I have come to realize that human flesh is very weak and the more you feed it its desires the more you get weaker in spirit. I am trying my best to live a godly live at the moment but sometimes I fall short, please pray for me friends! Please.
Im single,sexy and beautiful no matter what I have on.I can wear a dress to my knees and I still get sexually harassed.ive been promiscuous and guilty.im fighting also.have 3 persons who wanting to marry me but they want me to live in fornication 1st..I compromise for a year already I got really depressed.i know I was living in sin
Excellent video! No one can tell others how to triumph over this stuff unless they've struggled and overcame it! You can conqueror this through Christ and a strong support system. Be encouraged :)
This year has been the worst for me in my late 30s. But I've been used by men over and over and 2018 is for change. I need to work on my spirituality so maybe I can meet my husband and see my worth. I've been low and feeling suicidal and sexual sin leaves you in a lonely place
DivaGirl10 wow, It’s great that you’ve realized yourself that you are ready for a change. Something I’ve struggled with is feeling like “once I find the right guy, he will give me my worth and I will feel complete”. But I’ve had to realize that, a guy is not who our worth comes from. We can get married, have a husband who loves us and thinks we are the most beautiful women in the world, but we will still won’t feel worthy. God is the one who gives us our worth. You do not have to wait for a husband to feel worthy! We are daughters of the King! He tells us through the Bible how precious we are too Him. You are loved, God loves us so so much and you are worth so much to Him! ❤️
I literally just went through this! I don't want to pray about it bc however I feel afterwards, I just have to deal with the repercussions because I did this. But this popped up in my suggestions definitely for a reason. Smh
This is the first video I am watching of yours bro, and I feel so empowered. Hallelujah! I definitely had to subscribe, and will be peeping more of your stuff. It is always a blessing finding someone you can relate to. #Blessings #Peace
This is one of my biggest trials. Ive prayed. I was celibate for a year n a half. Ive been watching porn since 9 years old. I ask Him to take the desire away from me... Idk I feel so lost. Isk what to do with my life or where Im headed... Idk...
Aurielle G.: Well said sis.

Preach that truth Brother! Thanks for the honesty and being candid! I literally am in the same boat...i have been a porn addict for 16 years which is half of my life. I have tried all these programs to stop and NOTHING has worked. Only this year, I sincerely prayed to Jesus to give me the strength to resist the temptations when they came up and so far this is the cleanest I have been in my whole life. I have slipped up about 3-4 times in the space of a week but since then i have resisted. And i am grateful for this from the Lord, and its those moments when i am grateful that i doubly pray to resist temptation, because i am weakest when I think Im making good progress. Ill be honest, porn/masturbation/sexual lust is so alluring but in 16 years, not once has it made me feel good after. EVERY SINGLE time it makes me feel guilty and ashamed so Ive learnt that its just not worth it. I thank the Lord for continuing to give me strength to overcome...I pray for all of you out there going through the same struggle!!
I’ve been struggling with this... what I did was fasted and mediated with the Lord, while fasting I drink water, anyways I’ve struggled with this and I did a water fast where I only drank water for 24 hours and while fasting I prayed and I watched ministries and I worshipped the Lord, because the battle is going on in the spiritual realm , you can’t see it, so I was fasting from sexual immorality and I was seeking answers from the Lord, while fasting I began getting into the Spirit and praying in the Spirit, and Jesus my Lord gave me answer to overcome and how to overcome it.. anyways that’s what I did... and I’ll be fasting and praying again this week just to make sure and be clear of what needs to happen and what I need to do. Anyways basically I did a 24 hr fast and the whole time I personally didn’t play any games, watch anything but ministry, and a religious tv show. And I also kept my mind focused on what I needed help with and ask the the Lord and seeking Him out, and I would listen to worship music, and begin to worship the Lord
Thank you for posting this video. I needed to watch this today. From my understanding, we need to be baptized by the Holy Spirit to stop sinning. God bless y'all!
Even when you are baptized by the Holy Spirit you still sin. Turn your eyes to the Word of God everyday, pray, communion with believers, pray in the Holy Ghost every day, have an inner desire to stop sinning, chase after God, put on the whole armour of God...Keep pressing! But if you fall remember we have a High Priest who sympathizes with our weakness. Never give up.
@@nigoogwu155 No you don't, once the holy spirit enters in, you cease from sin, if you haven't ceased from sin you are not saved, you havn't been saved yet. In fact, if you don't cease from sin, you cannot enter the kingdom of God, according to Jesus Christ.
Sexual Sin is like any other sin, it is like a MAGNET that PULLS YOU to surrender to it, due to YOUR OWN CONCUPISCENCE or your own DESIRE for it. It is due to something that is living within you and that you have to put to death. This can have you in a vicious cycle for years, like me, and although you may be able to on your own strength overcome it momentarily by avoiding certain people, situations and scenarios, it will return and catch u unguarded at some point because it is living within you. I didn't listen to the whole thing because the 1ST BROTHER hit it RIGHT on the SPOT when he said: "You have to love the one you're sinning against, more than your sin, “ and that is the TRUTH. It takes FALLING IN LOVE WITH JESUS and that's where it ends. PERIOD. And some ppl may say, but I love Jesus and I still fall into recurring sexual sin??? NO you DON'T. I am telling you from my own experience that you love it more than you do Him because to love Jesus is to OBEY Him. But the good news is that once in love you will you come to hate whatever sin may be chaining you down and keeping you from total freedom in Him to live for Him, become a true worshiper and to be able to "love the LORD your God with all your heart, all your soul, all your mind, and all your strength.' Jesus said: “ IF (conditional) YOU CONTINUE (OBEY, ABIDE)in my word Then are ye my disciples indeed; And (then) you will know the truth, and the truth (JESUS) shall make you free. “Verily, verily, I say unto you, Whosoever commits sin is the servant of sin. And the servant abides NOT in the house for ever: but the Son abides ever. If the Son therefore shall make you free, ye shall be free indeed.” BE FREE. It happened for me and it can happen for you too. God Bless You.

Joshua Eze hi Joshua. Thank you for sharing and being transparent. I dealt with masterbation a few months ago. I thought well I guess this is it. but that's not true. I stopped one day. and did not look back.i don't want to again. that's the cycle it left me in. I go to the gym often too or workout and keep myself preoccupied. it's true idle mind is the Devils playground. some ppl don't get it. but I constantly pray that God would help me during this season. since I am also waiting to get married. it's not easy..😨 lol. but it will be worth it in the end. 😄😉👍👊 So God bless you Josh please keep me in your prayers. praying for u as well.🙏✌
Greetings man of God. I just started today watching something of your work...and it is right on point..But I will say the truth of God's will for our lives takes the ability and faith to endure it all.It takes the spiritual insights of who God is and who he sees us as...learning to see what God sees...any who...GN
With a wife overseas and being lonely, bored at times and with my hormones raging I fall deep into masterbation and porn.
It's so so hard. Pray for me, anyone.
Amen
Joshua Eze easy for you to say you knew you'd be married. I'm 13, I'm too close to the second coming.
have you ever noticed that these preachers and churches give long speeches about how you should not have sex but they never give speeches about how you should be keeping Sabbath and the other 9 commandments? It is because they don't keep them.
Who ever reads this....pray for me ❤
Nana Love I prayed for you, Hun. May God's will be done in every area of your life.
DimpledRae thankyou
Nana Love okay ❤️
Nana Love, be greatly encouraged sis. God loves you and He will never leave you nor forsake you. Don't ever give up, the victory is already your's!!! May God bless you.
Nana Love aye we can get married so u dont gotta deal with it 😭💯 I'm JP😭😂 but aye its a option 😩😏
sexual sin is one of the most overwhelming sin and very powerful. .
+Greg Zeno Like the brother says, you gotta get busy, fill your life with work, surround yourself with godly people, help the church etc etc..you'll start to find that the more you keep yourself busy doing things for God, the less you'll even think about sexual things
+Peace Dweller i see..stay busy to get your mind off the urge
+Greg Zeno ..Stay busy and pray my brother, pray pray pray, get on your knees each time, whenever you come across anything of a sexual nature, run away, do not let your eyes be drawn to it. Even if it means getting rid of your computer, TV, Iphone or whatever.
+Peace Dweller we all struggle with sexual immorality. .the only solution paul gave was get married..staying busy don't work
Greg Zeno ..This is why you need to pray everyday my brother, get serious about God and he'll get serious about setting you free from the spirit of lust, may the lord guide you and be with you, I am praying for you my brother.
I'm watching this today in 2017, after having fallen to sexual sin. I can say that this is the most depressing feeling and one of the lowest points. It feels exactly as you described. You are enticed, you fall to it, then you don't feel like you should or can go to God, so you feel empty, and then the cycle happens again. Each time this has happened I feel lower and lower. But I am going to talk to God today, I believe He can help me make it through. I believe He loves me.
csauls yes he loves us so much and he's sooo merciful! You can definitely do this 😊🙏🏾. I'm on my journey too.
csauls I myself was falling for this because I thought i was going to get love from a guy because I tought he truly cared for me. But everytime i went back to that same situation knowing so well that i should not be going to it , i cama back more and more empty especially when i felt ashamed to pray and ask for forgiveness and I would then falk back into my depression and hit the bottle. a cycle of empytness at the bottom of a bottle and at the end of sexual sin always the same cycle. I am now focusing my life with Jesus and the Most High and even though i long for that love for companioship Jesus strenghtens me everyday and I have been truly learning so much . keep praying seek your love from Jesus and the Most High and your life gets better.
God's love for you is as big as the universe. It's unshakeable and he has a legion of angels and extra back up on standby just for you. Everyday !! Just go to our loving father God and confess all your sins (sex, lies, gossiping or anything else). Ask for the Holy Spirit to guide you henceforth.
Then show your real contrition by cutting all ties with the person or situations that make you stumble. Otherwise, you will remain a a treadmill to nowhere. You cannot steal often and ask a Judge to let you off each time. Satan (Harsatan "the accuser") will use your guilt and your complicity to manipulate you into despair and more sins. Jesus already nailed all your sins to the cross, wiped you clean with his precious blood, and restored you to Gods original plan as described in Genesis - be fruitful and multiply by SUBDUING and having DOMINION over EVERYTHING on earth. Hod bless you.
Praying for you, girl❤️ hope you've made progress
csauls I'm praying my sister
I stayed 5 years without masturbating, but I neglected my spiritual duties and I have relapsed lately. I'm desperated, sad and full of guilt, but I believe God will make me win again. Help me praying for me.
Bruno Sunkey same :/ I dont even know what triggered it. all I know is I'm struggling.
Actually no. Repent and get baptized and pray for a spouse.. and THEN God will give the best man/woman for you. You must come to marriage being clean. So if you're still in sin you must be cleansed by the only way possible: the blood of Christ.
Stand up to your sins by loving Jesus more than your sin and flesh. He must increase and we must decrease. "Watch and pray, that you enter not into temptation: the spirit indeed is willing, but the flesh is weak." (Matthew 26:41 KJV) So PRAY PRAY PRAY and RESIST always. FLEE the devil and he will depart from you. FLEE. Anytime you're tempted, get busy! Leave that chair and computer, leave that room. Go walk, go run, go cook, do something anything that will separate you from acting upon that sin. Go sit with your mom your family, call a friend whatever. But most importantly do not starve your spirit, that way satan cannot overpower you, for there is POWER in the Word of God. And you know it. Keep praying and reading the Word, and seek counsel from people you know have overcome this sin, whether it be a friend or online such as these youtube videos. Amen brother Bruno. Keep the good fight of faith and God bless you all.
Praying for you! Stay close to God, and it'll get easier. Even through a relapse, God's grace is sufficient for you and He is fighting with and for you. Yeah, it's a daily fight, an exhausting fight, but you've already won because God said so! "Where sin abounded, grace did much more abound." Hope this helps as you continue on this journey in purity :)
Praying for you all
Repent and give your life to YAH The Eternal Father my brother, YHWH-EL-YISRAEL is the only One Who can save you.
u will be amazed at how much fasting helps in overcoming sexual sin..
That's interesting... I'd love to hear your testimony if you have... (no obligation or anything)
Samuel Kitandwe Indeed
It makes sense because fasting starves the flesh and sexual sin is of the flesh. But as we are starving the flesh we HAVE to sow into the spirit by reading HIS word and maintaing daily communion with God!!!
Goodness Ifebigh Excellent Sis. For he or she who sows to the Spirit will of the Spirit reap life.
Samuel Kitandwe so funny you should say that because I’m fasting starting today for the purpose of overcoming sexual sins. It’s almost like your message was confirmation.
I saw a church marquee the other day with this statement: "Sin first fascinates us...then it assassinates us"!
Marvin Jones
Thts cause satan users it’s too kill all tht don’t know
Wow!
Facts!
Marvin Jones wow. Good quote!
Sin will not just lead you guilty, sin will cost your life.
And ur soul
Amen
@@stephanyward4964 ty 💖
The wage of sin is death for sure there's consequences after someone sin...he pull himself away from the protection of God and the enemy can easily get him due to the door that person has open in his/her life...thats why repent and renounce all bad thing and ask God to deliver you and read and meditate the word...
That’s right Samuel, if you let Satan in he will have access to all areas of your being, including your physical and mental health!
The regret don't come a day later...even 2 seconds later 😂😩
Bruh😭😭
for real
RIGHT...the gratification ain't worth the filth the person dumps on you😲all that glitters ain't gold
Here is how I overcame and still overcome sexual sin everyday. Worship and prayer/entering into Gods Presence. When I first started off I had a lot of temptations, I would fall into sin because I would run to pornography or to have sex instead of running to my secret place and entering his presence. When I began worshipping and praying when I had strong temptations, it would rip them away. His presence burns every sin. Fasting will definitely help with those long term addictions as well.
Amen! God bless you brother!
Jared thank you bro I’m definitely fasting and praying
Amen
This fasting strategy was adviced by he prophet Mohamed when he said " If you can't marry , then you should fast "
Jared Hey, I have a great TH-cam video on how to abstain from sexual immorality, please watch it & subscribe to my channel thx
I'm struggling with this! People please pray for me.
Praying for you Keishamae! Don't beat yourself up, because that's what the enemy wants. He wants you to condemn yourself with guilt and shame, but God loves you in spite of your struggles. Overcoming sexual sin boils down to exhibiting self-control and spiritual discipline. Understand your weaknesses and avoid putting yourself in those tempting situations, which in turn will allow God to strengthen your resolve.
Without self-control and spiritual discipline (prayer), one thing can quickly lead to another. Some people subscribe to the flawed theory, "Look but don't touch, touch but don't taste, taste but don't swallow." That is a recipe for disaster. Momma used to say if you can't handle the heat...stay out of the kitchen! I have a ton of videos on my channel that deal with this. Be Blessed! 😃
Keishamae Thomas same! pray fo me as I pray for you too
Keishamae and Melissa I PROMISE it is easier than how people make it appear... there are biblical steps to take and a deep of understanding which when used makes it easier to fight
Keishamae Thomas One thing that has helped me is keeping my focus on God. Before I came to God and fully gave myself to him my mind was fill of lust. I could see a guy walking down the street and that would send my mind wandering. I needed to first get my mind on God and fully on him. I had to get rid of music and only watch sermons because of how bad my mind was. When lust tries to pop up or my body was not in line with my spirit I had to get a hold of God right then and there. Hope this helped you.😊 praying for you!
Keishamae, I found this to be a struggle and I think that once we decide that we want to be free, we out number our flesh. Our Flesh, Our Spirit being, and our Holy Spirit...once we decide to which side we want to please we overcome the other ( but it has to go beyond just words). I told myself that I want to side with God and what's right so I tapped into His power, which went beyond my own, to do so. I turned from everything that presented an opportunity dor me to be fed lust (music, movies, books, ppl, social media, etc) Then I watched clean movies, listened yo christian radio music, read scriputes that targeted my struggle, read scripturs about God's power, and I talked to God, asking for his help and strength. No, it wasn't all roses and sunshine at first, but it got easier. However, once free, don't go back bcuz it will be harder the next time. I love you and pray for me as I pray for you
To overcome sin, stay in the presence of God always!
Beautiful
Amen
porn: promises so much and delivers so little
Charlie Bailey This is so true.
mess up our thinking.. really bad. there was a sunday in church and a sexy lady sit beside us with with mini skirt. you dont want to look because you want to hear the preaching. all of the sudden it becomes a distraction... hate those situations....
Whn I whack off to particular porn acts I get get an orgasm but don’t get guilty anymore which tells me something mysterious about Dad who is God all mighty
Bros wer red blooded males, would be on too it if she was encourage to dress not so sexy but we have dad to talk too about his very sexy daughters tht r a visual pleasure for us alll. I’m glad I can think off it till dad says nah son whch means hel empower us up to either, ither this I know he knows tht went flesh and gives us “HS” for council so we don’t act or anyfing else
Charlie Bailey if u masturbate without lusting is it okey or unclean
As a survivor of molestation and incest this really spoke to me. I've been battling sexual addiction for the past 11 years now, I've been caught in a cycle of self defeat and I want out!! Pray the me💔
I'm sorry for what you went through. I'm will keep you in prayer
Praying for you, darling. Hope you're doing better ❣
The story of Mary Magdelene will inspire you to realise that God knows your past and what was done to you but loves you with a tremendous love and will give you victory! It's guaranteed!
check out this message that speaks about that
th-cam.com/video/g2gSBMTJzHQ/w-d-xo.html
Poor baby. It's going to be okay. At the age of 5 I was molested by my own brother and it wasn't until I was 25 that God released me from that bondage and healed me. Get into a good bible based church that is on the up and up and never look back. Stop dating for a while and take some time to connect with God who lives inside of you. You can be healed from this. Im praying for you gorgeous one.
antoinette wilson: Well said. This may be a subject of taboo for some people, but there are men & women, both young and old, married and single, who are struggling mightily in the area of sexual purity. The Bible tells us that we should not be ignorant of the enemy's devices. Let’s be intentional about exposing the devil, and help those who are bound in sexual sin realize that the blood of Jesus has the power to break every chain! 🙏🏾

This man speaks the truth in the biggest way. Sexual sin is so hard to overcome!
Hector Gonzalez it sure is I can't go long without it
I recently dumped my boyfriend because that's all he wanted. I want a man of God in my life and I will be patient about that. All I know is I am done and although I'm still figuring out my purpose in life, God will lead me in the right way.
Am here don't look for dear we can chat and build a relationship based on God foundation.
👏👏👏know your worth 👏❤️
Aye amen 🙏 what does light gotta do with darkness 🤍
I'm a 24yr old virgin man and I'm sick of falling victim to sexual sin. It's extremely hard not to give in when you feel "left behind." I'm not messing up anymore, I'm doing everything I can to stop sexual sin because I'm getting married soon. I'm remaining pure for marriage no matter what.
I dont want to be boastful, be it far from me Lord but it seems that the sexual sin is the only sin I really struggle with. It is so powerful and the urge to commit it is so strong it's absolutely unbelievable. I believe that the sexual sin is by far the hardest sin to defeat, by far. King David himself who had an amazing humble heart for God couldn't resist it. This sin is incredible. Praise God for everyone who has concquered it in the name of Jesus Christ. Amen.
I am trying my all to avoid this sin.Lord give me courage
You sound like you are praising the SIN itself!!
I feel the same way! It's definately my biggest problem. You're in my prayers.
I can totally relate!
Amen
HE KEPT IT REAL...I HAVE BEEN LEARNING TO CONTROL MYSELF AND IT'S GETTING BETTER BUT IT'S WORKING...
I still haven't overcome my sexual sin, I do it when I'm depressed or anxious. I know it's a sin and I don't even like it but I just do it anyway, may God have mercy on me.
god will. we all sin but we're human so it can't be helped. just be a good person outside of the sin
Flavio Sousa God will, but you need to motivate yourself and want this to come to an end...you need to make the decision and start taking actions snd God will help and strengthen....be encouraged in Jesus name
Flavio Sousa - It will help to remember that your body is a temple of the Holy Spirit in you which is from God. You are not your own. 1 Corinthians 6:19. Use this mantra each time the urge hits you. It doesn't matter if you still fall to temptation. Keep using it. Eventually the word of God will triumph over your old pattern.
I was in bondage for 34 years until I devoted my life to God through Jesus. It took 2 years to break my cycle of anxiety, despair, poor sleep, and sexual release. Now I stand firm on the Word of God when I am anxious because I KNOW that he watches over his Word to perform it. Isaiah 55:11-12
Thank you so much for your reply, it was the Holy Spirit that inspired you and you have no idea how important how timely and important this was.
Flavio Sousa I would like to recommend if I may , a video that I feel will help you with your strong hold ....TH-cam "Christian and Masturbation" >( channel MotivatingU2win)
This video ended up in recommendations after I entered the guilt stage after my sin. Please keep me in your prayers. I am tired and drained.
fynlilmama "they that wait upon the Lord shall renew their strengt..."
We have two persons inside ourselfes, one wich loves sin and one wich hates it.
This is one of the keys of getting free. Lets say you eat a delicious meal at a chinese restaurant, then you find out it was cat meat, you would most probably want to vomit. Yet when hungry we do things that are nasty and we do not want, we dampen our feelings so much down that we even will eat a cat just to feel well. Thats the same thing with addiction to lust. You do not want it, you simply do not want it. Dont give up.. change your mindset, accept the pure side in you and hate the sinful side inside of you and you can change. visit my ch.. and blg for more info.
this is the first time me seeing hearing & discovering this.....& this was so POWERFUL,like he said & she said "SIN" will ALWAYS make you feel guilty & if it was so good it wouldn't make you feel guilty.
SpamHusky that's was so helpful to me
A
You got to fast. The more you fast and be on constant prayer the more you feed the spirit and weaken the flesh. The flesh is weak is but the spirit is willing. Can you speak in toungs? If you can as you're fasting speak in toungs then do spiritual warfare by commanding the demons out of your body.
Very good....
Dan Master this is so true
And if u can't speak in tongues what do you do?
Kinesha Green You pray in English (or any language you're comfortable with)😊
Dan Master I wanna heal from depression for hiw long do I have to fast?
He is talking RIGHT! I've been abstinent for 2 years and its not that bad. However, I do miss it but I've come too far to stop now. if it's God's will for me to get married then so be it. Until then, my body belongs to the Lord. BTW..I'm 37 years old and at my sexual peak but I'm still holding on. God is able to keep me from falling.
Farrah Array I was able to stop for three years until I relapsed. I'm trying to do better now. pray for us both :'3
I find the abstinent part easy but masturbation is the challenge. I am so aware now what enters my eye to an extent that I have stopped watching most TV series and most type of films for they mostly contain a lot of sexual content like the bible says" its better to cut your hand off to stop it from sinning" so this is my approach. I continue to pray to God about it but I too have to play my part by being careful what I watch or read as the devil is always ready at the door waiting for it to open.
Rina Riya You r right !
Farrah Array hopefully you get married soon
Farrah Array I look up to you. I'm 38 and want ton live a chaste life again so I don't feel so used anynore
We aren't sharpened because we are around a bunch of dull knives.... *SNAPS*
Thank you so very much for your words. I have been stricken with sexual sin from a very young age. I have struggled for many years trying to rid myself of it and always felt guilty when I failed and did not stop cold turkey. Thank you for letting me know it is a process and giving me solid steps to overcome this sin. Bless you.
I regret losing my virginity and having multiple sexual partners when I was in my early twenties. Now at 26 I feel this constant loneliness and every day is a battle. Stay pure at all cost and don't watch porn. Don't start. Run away from it.
I'm there too brother
God can still redeem us for our wives, He still has a plan
He can use our failure to make us more determined to cling closely to Him and to be examples to others
thankks man
Same
I was too ugly a person for that to happen to me... and at 25... I'm still a virgin
Same here...facing the same problem of watching pornography..and willing to give it up completely...please pray for me..
Thank you. I needed this. "The idle mind is the devil's playground."
mine is masturbation, pray for me..

I continue to pray to God about it but I too have to play my part by being careful what I watch or read as the devil is always ready at the door waiting for it to open. As soon as the thought comes to mind pray and get up go take a walk, shower or find another form of distracting yourself and in time you will overcome it. Also truly ask yourself "Do I love God, Do I?" because if you do you can resist this. You can try what I have mentioned plus lots prayer, worship, reading the word and fasting.
Rina Riya thanks alot
Yeah bro just be careful what you watch on tv ,tv is not the same no more
Jesus Fan I really appreciate the time you spent for this
d Kl thanks brother, a word is not enough to thank you..
Loved the realness in this video. I've struggles with sexual sin since I was 4. It's not something you just turn off and can walk away from. Like he said, it's a process. Little by little you slow down and break it but only with the strength of Jesus.
Since I was 5
Mines started at 6 or 7 it creeped in by first playing little house games with other kids letting them touch on me ..... and then I found my moms porn collection at 9 it was a done deal after that I’ve struggled since then and I’m 23 years old .....
Thanks for sharing this video. I'm currently starving the beast and I'm on day 45. I've noticed other insecurities coming out in my emotional life that I used to mask with sexual sin. The layers start to peel away slowly and sometimes the urge to relapse gets stronger. But like you said, having a purpose is power in the face of lust. Please pray for me. God bless!
Yo I respect you for talking about this Infront of a group of people.
Real talk bro
im under the spell of sexual sin its overwhelmingly depressing
Start by removing whatever is causing you to sin. That's what I did and it helped a lot
You got to fast. The more you fast and be on constant prayer the more you feed the spirit and weaken the flesh. The flesh is weak is but the spirit is willing. Can you speak in toungs? If you can as you're fasting speak in toungs then do spiritual warfare by commanding the demons out of your body.
SIMINI Remove whatever is causing you to be tempted, whether it's your internet access, social media, TV, or whatever. You don't need to go all out. I Put Pornblockers on my computer. Deleted safari internet off of my IPhone, I delete My Instagram app before I go to bed every night. The Bible says flee from sexual immorality, and that's how you do it. Fasting and prayer is VERY powerful as well.
Hayden Rose thank you.
+Hayden Rose I hear you. He was right. We need to starve it. Believe me
it is true. If you feed the born and sexual appetite, it grows like s fire.
I had a problem with this and its true.
Read the word and get closer to him. But be on guard, the enemy will
know when you are getting closer to our father and he will throw everything
at you and the kitchen sink. Mark my word(s) he is a roaring lion running
and seeking to devour. So GET IN THE LIVING WORD of our father.
And last. Put on some soft worship music when you sleep.
How do I overcome sexual sin as a 27 year old virgin?
1. PRAYER PRAYER PRAYer!!!
2.I declare God's word when deceptive thoughts come: e.g My body is the temple of the Holy Spirit, I have the mind of Christ. I rebuke the thoughts and send them back to the devil.
3. I may have to do a lot of rebuking and epenting if I entertained sexual thoughts through what I read, what I see on social media or tv, what I listen to....e.t.c.
Above all let Jesus be the center of your sexual life. Only in him will you be able to overcome this sin.
read the bible a lot aswell.. trust me.. it Really hepls above all(well, for me personally but I'msure it'll help a lot out there too..)
Amen
amen

I have a problem with wanting to be wanted. I'm almost 23 and a virgin but I have treaded close to crossing the line and I've been tempted and been in appropriate in my thoughts. Please also pray for me to overcome this weakness.
Don in a Dress God will see you through dear💜
Wanting to be wanted... That feels like it says a lot, perhaps more than just about sexual temptation. It's possible I'm reading more into it than there is there, but I can't help but think that might suggest you're wanting to be loved and accepted for who you are. That's a journey of vulnerability. Are you familiar with Brene Brown? You might look her up on TH-cam if this resonates with you at all.
Remain strong there are many out there that wish they were your position believe me it's the best thing. And u are not missing nothing out there.. I regret i even started it. Biggest regret..
I pray God blesses you with a good man..❤
If the thought comes to you’re mind it isn’t a sin... if you dwell on it, it is a sin
Dear let the Bible be close to you all the time, bind the word of God around your neck and write them on your heart. i have been struggling this sexual sin and i pray God will deliver me. i believe that if i keep the word of God in me i will overcome it.
Whoever is reading this please pray for me... I'm struggling really hard with this... I keep relapsing constantly... Please think of me when you are praying. I really want to get out of this... Thank you so much...
I know what u going thru. God is with you. You need to take a stand against the enemy and put every thought under the subjection of the Holy Spirit, it a daily walk by cutting the flesh and yes the temptation would come, but you have to speak God word over it. Jesus have already won the victory so you would not have to go thru it.
Keep speaking life of the Spirit to your body. From time to time you would see it's chipping away, remember it's a process. God is with you
PRAY Bible
Lust is a very hard sin to conquer. We cannot conquer it by ourself. We need the power of the Holy Ghost to overcome the temptations of lust!
Amen
:50 - "Love the one your sinning against more than the sin!" Priceless Wisdom... from the mouth of babes. Amen
Thanks for being so candid! I needed this!!!!
Angela Beasley I understand. I'm struggling with it too. May we all pray for each other.
"It's hard to sharpen somebody when you got private sins." WOW and AMEN!
When he said “Who are you doing it for” it really hit me. How can I continue to sin when God loves me and his only request was don’t sin. God loves all of us, once you really take that in you will feel some way about going against your creators will. It’s never worth it brothers and sisters, the guilt is too strong.
As a guy in his 50s who has been alone for most of my life who struggles with this-this is one of the best things I've seen Thank You Joshua.
I needed this. It's time to make a change
Answer to title's question is easy: God provided (non-porn) occasional masturbation as the solution for the drive to have sex. NO fornicator goes to Heaven. www.docdroid.net/luebEz1/the-only-2-things-you-must-know.doc
Really wanna meet you guys who commented, I am just happy to see how people want change in their life and run to God at first, be all blessed. And to us who struggle in a certain addiction may God help us all.
7:18 - if sin was so good it would not make you feel guilty! Amen
I hear what y'all are saying. However, it's hard out here for a single, 36 year old woman who loves Jesus who has prayed and prayed for a husband.
I'm sorry you're in such a rough place. It sounds pretty hard. I hope God shows you a bit more of why he has you there and what he's doing in it.
Lynette Smith instead praying for your wants and needs. Try praying for knowledge and understanding. To pray for a husband is to pray for something to fufil your physical body the flesh. Pray in the spirit and ask God for spiritual eyes so you can see things from God's point of view.
Lynette Smith Faith without action is dead. Put yourself in situations where you are more likely to meet a husband. But not sinful environments like the club lol
You could date my brother...
Try praying for people that you know who are married. Whether they have great marriages or broken marriages. I believe as you sow seeds of prayer on behalf of their marriages, God will turn your focus from you to others. Your husband will come as you continue to be busy about the things of God. Try not to make marriage an idol sis. Blessings
I have overcomed a long battle that I struggled with for many years. I use to be addicted to pornographic videos and I struggled with masturbation. But now I have overcome it and I'm so happy.
How did you do it
be careful what you crave, before you become its' slave...thank you for this message brother Joshua, we need to talk about purity.
Don't let it get to the moment. Make a quality decision before hand, not to put yourself in situations that allow for sexual sin to take place.
1:50 - "What I practice in my single life, is what I am going to do in my married life!" 💪🏾🤜🏾SUPER FACTS!!🤛🏾💪🏾 🙏🏾🙌🏾👏🏾
Happy to see this from a Young man. You’re right on point. I know much older men who are STILL struggling with sexual sin. So, it doesn’t get better with age. You have to start with a renewed mind. Remember this, SIN ALWAYS TAKES YOU FURTHER THAT YOU THINK YOU WILL GO. It will lead to destruction. And that is the enemies plan for you. Be blessed.
Sexual sin is the hardest sin to conquer for me personally. Even me giving my life to the Lord on 7/22/18 and through the studies that I've done since esp in Proverbs(31 day challenge) and other scriptures, I still succumbed to the the sin of lust and adultery three weeks later. Temporary pleasure isn't the way. I told people about my breakthrough and I don't want to be hypocritical to the people that I know and love. Pray for me❤
At 2:12 he said, “short, short, leggings pants..” sometimes people don’t know that they may look good but are tempting other to lust at their bodies. So be mindful of how you dress. Is it to get people attention or just to look respectful. This I believe goes both ways male or female... ( I’m speaking to believers on this topic. Unbelievers don’t feel wrong for how they dress. )
Gotta love this guy. I'm 70, and I know what he is saying is true. I've seen marriages destroyed because of sexual misconduct including pornography.
it really starts with your mind, we need to renew it everyday with the word and prayer to stay strong.
This is so incredible how it's put.
I loved the speakers' use of imagery. The idea of "starving" a sin is very appropriate.. Romans 6:11 states, "Even so consider yourselves to be dead to sin, but alive to God in Christ Jesus." How does something die? You starve it. Thank you so much for this video. I also think if anyone is on here struggling, the fact that you are seeking help and watching this video is a wonderful start. Thank you iamunplugged! I am going to watch more :)
wow!! wish my soon to be ex husband could hear your words. our marriage is over because of his porn addiction, and he doesnt even understand that. 8 years down the tubes. His sickness nearly killed me, but God saved me and gave me courage to leave. To cut the soul ties. So many people out there with hidden sin, and they just cant be open and honest about it. Cause when you truly love someone, you can forgive and go past. But when people stand in pride, they ruin themselves and all around themselves. Sad but true! I am a survivor and now i love myself again! God is good, and yep....we all need to be held accountable and have friends who hold us to it!
RB rockerkatze Jesus made me look good thank you god ✝🤗
God would never tell you to leave your husband stay with him, and pray for him and show him scriptures that will encourage him to consider his behavior and pray to God to heal your marriage, give you patience while enduring this frustration and pray that God would give him awareness. Don't give up on your marriage, remember what is written that if you divorce your spouse and marry another you have committed adultery. Jesus says that all adulterers shall never enter the kingdom of God.
Divorce over porn? Porn aint right, but I don't think you have to divorce over porn. It's not real physical cheating. You should have encouraged him or he should have gotten help to beat the addiction.
Please be aware that there are lost demons involved and anyone dealing with these situations needs deliverance. Seek deliverance even if it’s self deliverance on TH-cam.
Thanks for my sermon. When you are a man this is a 24/7 battle. Church helps to stem the onslaught. Pray no more good dudes get taken out by the enemy
This video has blessed so many lives! We need more people to speak on this subject that is sometimes seen as "taboo" if you will. What a beautiful thing it is to see people walking in God's righteousness and experiencing the FREEDOM only HE can give.
This really suprised me,man those are good words God bless.
bruh, thats real spill right there, God bless u brother for your courage to speak on that, its a huge problem for all of us men out there in this over sexualized world we live in
Jesus helped overcoming my homosexuality sins🙏🏾
Really!
Have you stoped?
God I needed this!!!! I'm so glad he didn't say asking God will make you quit but said you have to desire something greater(marriage) than the here and now and God will help you in that process but it's up to you
Thank you so much.... Being someone who struggles daily with confusion about my sexuality, this can be hard because I can be tempted by either gender and I really need to keep my heart submitted and obedient to God's word. I used to be enslaved by pornography but HALLELUJAH PRAISE God I have been freed from that sin.... And the sins that go along with it. It has been a long journey, and even now at times my heart gets a little bit too loose or undisciplined..... And it's only God's grace, man. Only His love and His power and the blood of Jesus that has made me pure. Amen!!
This video was great! I appreciate your authenticity. Lately, I've been neglecting my relationship with God and I found myself stuck in this trap for a lil while now and watching this video helped me realize what's more important. Which is serving God, not my fleshly desires.
Lust is a powerful sin very hard to overcome it. I used to be full of lust but now I hate my sin no wonder God hates sin I agree it is disgusting.
God's kindness leads you to repentance. (Rom 2:4)
Know that you are SO loved. So loved.
Don't run away from Him.
Seek Him. You will find Him.
He will show you the why of your life.
He will set you free.
Something that helps me is watching nde videos of hell testimonies, when you hear these testimonies it snaps you back into reality and makes you feel like there’s ABSOLUTELY NOTHING IN THIS WORLD that is worth the eternal agony of being 100% separated from our almighty loving God!
this is what helped me overcome sexual sin !!!! i just keep thinking about the end reward that god has prepared for us
Alleluia.. Hosanna in the highest.. All you guys counsellors AND listeners...
It's so difficult and can be dangerous for me . I want to stop
heyy man
I would love to know how are you doing now
Me too I want to stop pray for me
Brother so encouraging thank you. Praise God for brothers & Sisters like you all... 😊😊😊
Yassssss! He keeps it sooooo real. God brought me to this channel. Thanks Jesus 🙏
I cannot believe this was a random video that just happened to load and it is exactly what I am going through! this blew me away, amazing video. My issue is you try to quit and you may get some success, but then you are dragged back farther and deeper than before. Its so difficult, I don't know what to do.
It's so true... Satan wants us to feel like since we have sinned we aren't worthy of His ❤ - there is a great prayer for those who have had their sexuality activated by molestation or sexual assault..
Michelle Rukny What prayer is that?
true guess am also affected by that but i forgive who dd that 2 me
Self discipline must be applied!!! What brother said about telling people is trueeeeeeeee okay! Repent, confess, renounce chile alll dat!!!
when you feel you cant control any longer n just wana do it .Just fall on your knees before God.the lust starts losing its power even before you start Praying. and the only expression of the joy of overcoming that powerful Sin is by Prasing God.
It's 2020 and this message is still helpful🙌🙏.
Best 7 minutes and 29 seconds of my life.
Young man, you indeed are walking in the wisdom of the Lord!! God bless and keep you Sir!!
Wow!
He gave such a powerful message.
And I know this video was from 2015 but then WOW!
37 yrs of age and he was a virgin?
I've never heard that come from a male.
But I thank him for preaching such a wonderful message.
I have come to realize that human flesh is very weak and the more you feed it its desires the more you get weaker in spirit.
I am trying my best to live a godly live at the moment but sometimes I fall short, please pray for me friends!
Please.
Im single,sexy and beautiful no matter what I have on.I can wear a dress to my knees and I still get sexually harassed.ive been promiscuous and guilty.im fighting also.have 3 persons who wanting to marry me but they want me to live in fornication 1st..I compromise for a year already I got really depressed.i know I was living in sin
Excellent video! No one can tell others how to triumph over this stuff unless they've struggled and overcame it! You can conqueror this through Christ and a strong support system. Be encouraged :)
This year has been the worst for me in my late 30s. But I've been used by men over and over and 2018 is for change. I need to work on my spirituality so maybe I can meet my husband and see my worth. I've been low and feeling suicidal and sexual sin leaves you in a lonely place
DivaGirl10 wow, It’s great that you’ve realized yourself that you are ready for a change. Something I’ve struggled with is feeling like “once I find the right guy, he will give me my worth and I will feel complete”. But I’ve had to realize that, a guy is not who our worth comes from. We can get married, have a husband who loves us and thinks we are the most beautiful women in the world, but we will still won’t feel worthy. God is the one who gives us our worth. You do not have to wait for a husband to feel worthy! We are daughters of the King! He tells us through the Bible how precious we are too Him. You are loved, God loves us so so much and you are worth so much to Him! ❤️
Devan Serene thank u!
Can we chat?This is my line:+260953597343
i like how open he is... he is a real G
I literally just went through this! I don't want to pray about it bc however I feel afterwards, I just have to deal with the repercussions because I did this. But this popped up in my suggestions definitely for a reason. Smh
There's a purpose far beyond the struggle. Hallelujah. Do they do more of these videos. This was great. Full video?
keeping busy and praying always amen
This is the first video I am watching of yours bro, and I feel so empowered. Hallelujah! I definitely had to subscribe, and will be peeping more of your stuff. It is always a blessing finding someone you can relate to. #Blessings #Peace
This is one of my biggest trials. Ive prayed. I was celibate for a year n a half. Ive been watching porn since 9 years old. I ask Him to take the desire away from me... Idk I feel so lost. Isk what to do with my life or where Im headed... Idk...
Aurielle G.: Well said sis. This may be a subject of taboo for some people, but there are men & women, both young and old, married and single, who are struggling mightily in the area of sexual purity. The Bible tells us that we should not be ignorant of the enemy's devices. Let’s be intentional about exposing the devil, and help those who are bound in sexual sin realize that the blood of Jesus has the power to break every chain! 🙏🏾

Preach that truth Brother! Thanks for the honesty and being candid! I literally am in the same boat...i have been a porn addict for 16 years which is half of my life. I have tried all these programs to stop and NOTHING has worked. Only this year, I sincerely prayed to Jesus to give me the strength to resist the temptations when they came up and so far this is the cleanest I have been in my whole life. I have slipped up about 3-4 times in the space of a week but since then i have resisted. And i am grateful for this from the Lord, and its those moments when i am grateful that i doubly pray to resist temptation, because i am weakest when I think Im making good progress. Ill be honest, porn/masturbation/sexual lust is so alluring but in 16 years, not once has it made me feel good after. EVERY SINGLE time it makes me feel guilty and ashamed so Ive learnt that its just not worth it. I thank the Lord for continuing to give me strength to overcome...I pray for all of you out there going through the same struggle!!
We truly need Jesus to fight for us this battle of sexual sin.
been hard to let this go and turn away from patterns I set a long time ago.
good listen. thanks.
I’ve been struggling with this... what I did was fasted and mediated with the Lord, while fasting I drink water, anyways I’ve struggled with this and I did a water fast where I only drank water for 24 hours and while fasting I prayed and I watched ministries and I worshipped the Lord, because the battle is going on in the spiritual realm , you can’t see it, so I was fasting from sexual immorality and I was seeking answers from the Lord, while fasting I began getting into the Spirit and praying in the Spirit, and Jesus my Lord gave me answer to overcome and how to overcome it.. anyways that’s what I did... and I’ll be fasting and praying again this week just to make sure and be clear of what needs to happen and what I need to do. Anyways basically I did a 24 hr fast and the whole time I personally didn’t play any games, watch anything but ministry, and a religious tv show. And I also kept my mind focused on what I needed help with and ask the the Lord and seeking Him out, and I would listen to worship music, and begin to worship the Lord
Hats off to this man speaking the truth...real talk! Amen brother thanks for the advise and I hope this overcomes others too
Thank you for posting this video. I needed to watch this today. From my understanding, we need to be baptized by the Holy Spirit to stop sinning. God bless y'all!
Even when you are baptized by the Holy Spirit you still sin. Turn your eyes to the Word of God everyday, pray, communion with believers, pray in the Holy Ghost every day, have an inner desire to stop sinning, chase after God, put on the whole armour of God...Keep pressing! But if you fall remember we have a High Priest who sympathizes with our weakness. Never give up.
Angela Ogwu that is not true. If you walk by the spirit you won’t fall into sin.
jelaya Stewart all have sinned before the glory of god
@@nigoogwu155 No you don't, once the holy spirit enters in, you cease from sin, if you haven't ceased from sin you are not saved, you havn't been saved yet. In fact, if you don't cease from sin, you cannot enter the kingdom of God, according to Jesus Christ.
This was a good video... I pray that God continues to use you guys in great & major ways.
Sexual Sin is like any other sin, it is like a MAGNET that PULLS YOU to surrender to it, due to YOUR OWN CONCUPISCENCE or your own DESIRE for it. It is due to something that is living within you and that you have to put to death. This can have you in a vicious cycle for years, like me, and although you may be able to on your
own strength overcome it momentarily by avoiding certain people, situations and scenarios, it will return and catch u unguarded at some point because it is
living within you. I didn't listen to the whole thing because the 1ST BROTHER hit it RIGHT on the SPOT when he said: "You have to love the one you're sinning against, more than your sin, “ and that is the TRUTH. It takes FALLING IN LOVE WITH JESUS and that's where it ends. PERIOD. And some ppl may say, but I love Jesus and I
still fall into recurring sexual sin??? NO you DON'T. I am telling you from my own experience that you love it more than you do Him because to love Jesus is to
OBEY Him. But the good news is that once in love you will you come to hate whatever sin may be chaining you down and keeping you from total freedom in Him to live for Him, become a true worshiper and to be able to "love the LORD your God with all your heart, all your soul, all your mind, and all your strength.' Jesus said: “ IF (conditional) YOU CONTINUE (OBEY, ABIDE)in my word Then are ye my disciples indeed; And (then) you will know the truth, and the truth (JESUS) shall make you free. “Verily, verily, I say unto you, Whosoever commits sin is the servant of sin. And the servant abides NOT in the house for ever: but the Son abides ever. If the Son therefore shall make you free, ye shall be free indeed.” BE FREE. It happened for me and it can happen for you too. God Bless You.
Best answers I've ever heard to this question.
