Good morning.

Please I need suggestions.

What kind of prayers should I pray when the temptation arises, which Bible verse should I read?

Please know this is someone who's been addicted to porn for more than 7 years.
First thing first
Today delete all porn in your phone.

Do it right now.
Next step set your phone and Google to filter adult content
Go to Google.com, below, tap 'Settings' then 'Search Settings'. Look for SafeSearch Filters category, choose Filter Explicit Results. Click Save.

Send me your contact as in email let me forward you some ebooks that will help you.
Always pray when the urge comes knocking.
Don't stay alone indoors even if you do open your curtains and door so even people passing can see what happening inside the room. Etc

Load your phone with spiritual or worship songs. so when the urge comes start listening to those worship songs until the urge goes down.

Note: You must also fill your heart with the Word of God. Psamist said " Your Word have I hid in my heart that I may not sin against thee"
Check Colossians 3:16

ILoveDemMANNA:
One of the first steps you should take is to remove the source of temptation from your phone.
Then, instead of planning how you can do the things that have kept you in bondage, consciously avoid situations that expose you to watching porn.
Don’t lose sight of the fact that with time your healthy sensitivities and wholesome desires will grow, and the power of your addiction will fade into insignificance. Also, remember that God doesn’t judge you solely on the basis of your failures but on the basis of what you can become through Christ.
Although your sin is an offense to God,
But, he always loves you.

Exactly...
Maybe I shouldn’t be judgmental...
There is absolutely a wonderful part of you we’re yet to see grin
I forgive you cool

I'm afraid that is not true. I work 7-7 and I still came home to watch porn


Be sincere you watch it to masturbate or you just watch it for watching sake like a movie? Watching porn to ease stress by masturbating is understandable but anything else is misguided addiction

marriage doesn't kill lust just the same way riches doesn't kill greed lipsrsealed

Why do you equate the desire to watch porn and lust? People that watch porn do it because they crave intimacy. The desire to be sexually intimate with the opposite sex is not itself lust. It's a part of our humanity.

HRHQueenPhil:

grin grin grin grin grin boss, unfortunately no prayers or singing can help u here.the solution is to never be idle. What I mean is evry hour has to be u doing something..also build urself up spiritually by attending nathaniel bassey midnight praise and prayer sessions,reading books, listening to tapes. The bible says the Spirit entered into me as he spake unto me and set me upon my feet. And u know God word is Spirit and it's life. So feed ur spiritman so when such thoughts come ,ur Spirit man kills it immediately
Now building urself up bus a DAILY ritual just like gyming to have abs.if u abandon this regimen for just 2 days..dat porn Spirit will return
Also try and get married, solves half of ur issues

Am confident that as u seek to find a way out of ur predicament, Holy Spirit will visit u with more revelation and show u d way out
your advice on never to be idle will have to be looked into ,from my own point of view too much workload, stress, cracking your brain everyday on how to solve problems, anxiety,all of the above has conspired to nearly reduce my horse power to 20%,and it is shocking to be with a pretty girl and not feel anything,no matter her skill and acrobatics, watching porn , masturbation,sex ,all are not bad when it is controlled,but if it's excessive then that's a problem

it's ok to be taught ABC or 1,2,3 but sex isn't something that you learn from professional whores.if you watch it to get entertained that's a different case but to watch it with the intent of practicing what you saw paid actors do is foolishness

Good morning.

Please I need suggestions.

What kind of prayers should I pray when the temptation arises, which Bible verse should I read?

Please know this is someone who's been addicted to porn for more than 7 years.

It is not about the kind of prayer you should pray or Bible verse to read. Scripture says walk in the Spirit and you will not gratify the desires of the flesh. Walking in the Spirit does not mean floating in the air. It means be spirit guided.

When the Holy Spirit guides you he helps you. Realising there can't be vacuum, He helps you to by renewing your mind by the word. Read the word. It is alive, it delivers, it saves. From pornography, unforgiveness, drunkenness, malice and other unrighteous.

Also, you consciously have to stay away from anything that has any form or porn or sex in it. Videos, suggestive songs, photos etc. You can't want deliverance and be around any of those.

And listen, you can't have girl friend. I don't mean female friends. I mean anyone in particular that you call "my girl friend". Abstain from all appearance of evil. Don't tempt yourself.

Now, all I have told you may not happen in a day, but as you yield to the Lord your deliverance will be evident daily. Keep confessing your liberty through Christ's death for you. And stand on the truth that you have been been delivered by his blood.

NB. All these can only work if you have given your life to Christ. Liberty is only guaranteed for those in Christ not someone strolling by. Only as many as believe in him, (saved) are those given the power to be children of God. They are the only free people.

God's speed bro.
