sex addiction is from the mind. Get your mind busy with a worthy cause. Find a busy job. Get offline or try not to log into porn sites, and you will not think about sex.

You can only quit your addiction when you are determined to do so by asking God for help. On your own you may never be able to overcome that sin of fornication because with man it is impossible but with God all things are possible.


The Bible says that whatever is born of God overcomes the world...


God means business with only those who display sincerity in seeking His help.


However, there's something you can do to avoid fornication...you must always RUN away from it...flee it! Don't think or argue with sin...flee!
Do you stay under a burning roof? Unless you have a death wish, your reflex action should be locating the nearest exit to escape. In the same manner your reflex action should be to run away from any appearance of lust and temptation leading to fornication.


Moreover, the Bible also says that God is faithful who will make a way of escape/exit with every temptation.


Therefore, there is really no excuse to fall into the temptation of fornication when God is ready to help when you call and He has given us the key to escape from temptation by letting us know how to react to it as well as already placing exit routes from temptations.


That is not all. The Bible also says that God will never permit us to be tempted beyond our strength or capacity. It means that every temptation that overtakes you was permitted to do so because God knows you are well able to overcome it. Those in heaven today and those in hell all faced temptations which they could all overcome. We all do. No one is spared except, of course, little kids who had not gotten to the age of responsibility before they died.


Lastly, we are humans and we will still stumble and fall at one or two occasions. That is why we should always maintain a repentant heart knowing that we can fall at any time. There is no such thing as a sinless saint but there are holy saints. All God wants to see is your sincerity in following Him and He will do the rest.


Do read Ephesians 1:4 if you want to know how to live a holy life daily.

Jn. 1:12 Yet to all who received him, to those who believed in his name, he gave the right to become children of God.

Any person who has been baptized into Jesus Christ has been given the right to become like God. In order to become like God, a person should spend time with God as first thing every morning, just like Jesus Christ did while he was here on earth. In order to enter the presence of God, you plead the blood of Jesus Christ.

• When you spend time with God, the most important thing that you will ask for is that God gives you the Holy Spirit. Also ask God to strengthen you with power in your inner being through the Holy Spirit (Eph 3:17). You need to be anointed with the Holy Spirit and with power every morning, so that you could go about doing good (Act 10:38).

• Armed with the Holy Spirit and power, you can put to death fornication or any other sin in your life by the Holy Spirit:

I plead the blood of Jesus Christ against the sin of fornication. In the mighty name of the Lord Jesus Christ, I put to death the spirit of fornication in my life by the Holy Spirit of the Most High God.

• Receive the Holy Spirit everyday and put to death fornication and every other sin in your life by word of faith. You will continue to grow in holiness.

Ja. 4:7 Submit yourselves, then, to God. Resist the devil, and he will flee from you.

Never give up. Learn from each fall. Prayer is only half the solution. You must learn to FORCE your body to obey you.


According to Apostle Paul, "But I keep under my body, and bring it to subjection: lest by any means, when I have preached to others, I myself should be a castaway" (KJV).

The English Standard Version expresses it better - But I discipline my body and keep it under control, lest after preaching to others I myself should be disqualified.


Know that the flesh is our greatest enemy. It is up to us to put the flesh under tight leash. The flesh, as a result of the Fall of Adam, is NATURALLY corrupt and always desires the things that are contrary to the will and nature of God, therefore, we must always kill it by denying it what it wants. If you always gratify its desires then you will always fall into sin. Always say NO to the sinful and evil desires of the flesh.


God deals with our spirits but wants us to deal with our souls and bodies...however, He will always help us in ways we cannot imagine if we ask for it.


As long as we live, we will always struggle with the flesh. It is so normal. It is called the good fight of faith. Learn to starve the flesh by forcefully refusing to give it what it wants if its desires are sinful....then little by little you will master the art of overcoming the flesh.


Read Romans 6:7. Very beautiful secret of taming the flesh.


May God give you grace to please Him and live a victorious life in Him.

Yes...Jesus said that He is in us, and we are in Him. Once the Holy Spirit lives in you, everything evil acts in your live will stop naturally. Everyday we learn new things, I realised that the moment I began to fall deeply in love with God, certain things now irritate me. For instance, I couldn't bring my eyes to look at the television the other day, when watching a movie with my family and they got to a scene that had worldly music and dances. Before now, those things never affected me.

Pray to God for help but help yourself by staying away from Porn. No one is born an addict so its not natural.

Simple,grin Change your diet.
The things you watch or listen to affects your habitual actions. You are no difference from what you hear and watch. What the world offers portrays sex, sex, sex angry. So take your eyes off the wrong music, videos etc. Keep your gaze on Jesus. Give Him your heart, presence, and attention. cool
Thanks.
