If you see hen chase and mount on a chicken, Is he been lustful or helping the biological continuation of said specie?

Men is polygamous in nature for a biological purpose; This is why your pastor even chase after the most prettiest girls in the congregation even if women are married.

That is why we are higher and intelligent animals... There is an order for procreation... Lust leads to destruction both to self and others.... Lust leads to multiple sex partners which leads to destruction (self) lust leads to coveteousness which leads to war (others)... Lust is just d devils alternative for Gods love which is the real order for procreation

Lust is usually the culprit as far as sexual immorality is concerned. It is a fuel that has a capacity to push people into indulging in sexual immoral acts - premarital sex, extramarital sex, pornography, masturbation, and so on. Lust is one of the devil's most favourite weapons. When he struck with lust, many persons easily find themselves commiting sexual sins and attract afflicting afflictions into their lives.

Lust precedes sin; sin brings about separation from God. Separation from God your Creator will give the devil your enemy an access to ruthlessly plunder your life and destiny here on earth, and get you doomed in hell fire (which is for eternity).


A lot of people out there are under the shackles of lust, and it has vehemently corrupted their heart and mind and thoughts. Lust will always dip people into trouble. Jesus Christ said: "Whoever looks at a woman to lust for her has already committed adultery with her in his heart." (Matthew 5:28). Imagine that. It means the curses attached to the person that indulged in the real act of sexual immorality can also follow the one who only lustfully imagined the pleasures in the heart.

I know a lot of people out there are still battling with lust You reading this right now might be one of them. The good news is that, you can be delivered from the demonic stronghold called lust today.

What should you do? Simply follow these steps:

1. Depend On The Finished Works Of Christ

The Bible revealed that the spirit is willing (to yield to the will of God), but the flesh is weak. Immediately after the fall of Adam and Eve in the Garden of Eden, the human nature became brutally perverted, and it was corrupted into becoming an entity that enjoys sin.

Therefore, you must realise that you can't conquer lust with your own futile attempts and strength. What should you do then? Depend wholly on what Christ has done for you. You must first accept Jesus Christ as your Lord and Savior. If you haven't do that, say this prayer with sincerity:

"LORD Jesus, I accept You as Lord and Savior. I acknowledged that I'm a sinner. Please, Forgive me all my sins and wash me clean with Your precious Blood. Henceforth, I'm Yours alone. Amen".

When you dedicate (or rededicate) your life to Christ, you will have to die to self, and He will resurrect you. He will give you His Holy Spirit to help you live a life devoid of lust. Please, ask the Holy Spirit for help.

2. Empower Your Mind, Heart And Thoughts With The Word Of God

Your heart and mind can't be empty - it must be occupied and filled with something. To prevent lust from dominating your life, fill it then with the Word of God. Equip yourself with the Word of God, and you will be empowered not to sin. The Bible says: "Thy word have I hid in mine heart, that I might not sin against thee" (Psalm 119:11).

The Word of God is power, and it will strengthen you to resist sin of all types. Don't forget, you shall know the truth and the truth shall set you free (John 8:32).

3. Avoid All Lustful Entities And Appearances

While the Holy Spirit is always available and eager to help, you must also realize that you have your role to play.

You should avoid persons whose lifestyle (dressing, conversations, etc) brings about lust. You should ensure you don't give room for the flesh, and should avoid dirty things that erupts lustful desires and thoughts (dirty magazines, books, movies, music, etc). Don't be in places with an immoral atmosphere (clubs, wild parties, and so on) too. Avoid situations that brings breeds lust (intimate contact with sensitive parts of members of the opposite gender, and so on).

In conclusion, you are destined to live a life of purity and holiness, maintaining an eternal intimate relationship with God through Jesus Christ the Lord. This will empower you to adequately fulfill your destiny and have complete dominion over creation.

Most times I wonder how God actually created this and put the so much power in it just as money or even more than money to some.
But who am I to question God on what He has done?
To me, I believe that the best discipline you can offer yourself in this corrupt life is to discipline your mind and private part.

Its worst in males.

My little son, when he wants to sleep, he will come closer to me and start playing with the hair on my body and breast until he sleeps of.

But my daughter is not like that.

I think God just want it to be like that for men, reason best known to him

Most people think that there's nothing wrong if they think lustful thoughts in their minds privately and then go to one corner and masturbate privately later.

After all, they ain't hurting anybody, they say.

Well, people should understand that every thought you have in your mind, even the fleeting ones become manifest and exist as thought forms, real objects in one of the astral planes (known to esotericists as the Astral Black keys) closest to the material plane on which we live currently.

These thought forms live from between a fraction of a second to years. Depending on the intensity of the thoughts.

They exist as thought forms or real objects struggling to extend their shelf lives.

A continuous engagement in lustful thoughts keeps feeding the initial thought form created by you.

It gains a life of its own and it goads you to keep it alive by engaging in more activities that will make you lustful, thereby growing your monster.

The energy you release when you oragsm during masturbation goes to feed this monster you have created.

It follows you around. It has an instinct for self survival and brings familiar thoughts into your mind.

There are other thought forms also floating around in this astral plane created by other people. When you look at a person lustfully and a fleeting lustful thought passes across your mind, you attract other thought forms of the same frequency towards you and your mind becomes overwhelmed with lust.

After having sex or masturbation, you become drained of energy also known to esotericists as vital force.

This, you have lost and it was gained by the demon you created yourself.

And that's why those who have found themselves in the web of lust, sex, masturbation and other unnatural sex activities become addicted and can't seem to free themselves.

It is a slow death indeed. You feed your monster, which you created all by yourself.

But...you can easily overcome and destroy your pet monster if you so wish. Remember, it is just thought form whose continued existence depends on you...

Women are polygamous too. They enjoy it as much as we do. Let's stop making excuses for ourselves.

Good day Sir, You compared man to chickens....you compared man to animals. Look at man 100 years ago and all he has done. Then look at the animal kingdom and tell me that man and animals are the same.

Secondly, you are looking up to another man as standard for your life, a pastor... a pastor is just a man with a title, he faces the same temptations that you face maybe even more.

Finally, You are excusing your promiscuous nature with the phrase, "man is polygamous in nature." Who told you man is polygamous in nature.....in the beginning He created one man and one woman. Where your theory come from?

I mean no harm on your ego. Thanks for your understanding

When you dedicate (or rededicate) your life to Christ, you will have to die to self, and He will resurrect you. He will give you His Holy Spirit to help you live a life devoid of lust. Please, ask the Holy Spirit for help.

2. Empower Your Mind, Heart And Thoughts With The Word Of God

Your heart and mind can't be empty - it must be occupied and filled with something. To prevent lust from dominating your life, fill it then with the Word of God. Equip yourself with the Word of God, and you will be empowered not to sin. The Bible says: "Thy word have I hid in mine heart, that I might not sin against thee" (Psalm 119:11).

The Word of God is power, and it will strengthen you to resist sin of all types. Don't forget, you shall know the truth and the truth shall set you free (John 8:32).

3. Avoid All Lustful Entities And Appearances

While the Holy Spirit is always available and eager to help, you must also realize that you have your role to play.

You should avoid persons whose lifestyle (dressing, conversations, etc) brings about lust. You should ensure you don't give room for the flesh, and should avoid dirty things that erupts lustful desires and thoughts (dirty magazines, books, movies, music, etc). Don't be in places with an immoral atmosphere (clubs, wild parties, and so on) too. Avoid situations that brings breeds lust (intimate contact with sensitive parts of members of the opposite gender, and so on).

In conclusion, you are destined to live a life of purity and holiness, maintaining an eternal intimate relationship with God through Jesus Christ the Lord. This will empower you to adequately fulfill your destiny and have complete dominion over creation.
