If you watch porn, you do so because you love sin, you love porn, you love yourself. What is the first commandment? Love The Lord, above all else. That is what must be done. You must begin to fall in love with Christ, and see the truth of his surpassing worth as true beauty, to take pleasure not in your sin and your own way, and you begin to love keeping The Lords command and his holiness more than the allure of sin, which promises to satisfy but is always, always a lie. Pray to the Holy Spirit for a heart that loves and sees Jesus beauty. Read the Word, everyday. Everyday. Mandatory, no questions, miss days at your own peril. Pray constantly for wisdom to come to you by the Spirit, and for remembrance to always rely on, and lie in The Lords strength, not yours. Blessed is the man that resists temptation, for when he is tried, he shall receive a crown of life, which The Lord has promised to those that love Him. Amen. The Lord is able to free you from all bondage by his steadfast love and grace. What is too much for the arm of The Lord? Brethren, I love you, rejoice, Christ has overcome!
Jesus Christ saved us to have a personal relationship with Him. All else naturally follows-sanctification, good works, fruit in your life. When you have been saved, healed, delivered and set free, you cannot contain the love of Christ, it spills out of you and overflows to those around you. When you are so in love with Jesus that your main desire is to please Him, the things of this world (such as lust of the flesh) start to lose their grip on you entirely. You lose the desire for those things because your sole desire is Him, and Him alone. I pray that this is a personal revelation to every believer and disciple of Jesus Christ. Blessings!
