TheManOfTheYear:
All of you saying "Get a girlfriend" are just modafucking hypocrites (permit me to sound vulgar). You condemn masturbation and justify fornication, can you listen to yourselves.

Also, for those saying "Go and marry", not everyone is in a position to get married, some are not financially stable, some are still young and just starting life, some are students. Konji is not a respecter of anybody.

Don't get me wrong, I'm not justifying masturbation, but I just feel it is foolish to condemn Peter and praise Paul, furthermore, marriage is not a remedy for sexual immorality, married people still masturbate, married people still cheat and etc.

The thing is simple, if you want to abstain simply occupy your mindset with things to keep you busy, doing it once in a while has no repercussions (health-wise).

It only takes the grace of the Holy Spirit for one to be sexually pure. Y'all take a seat.

Lots of sense in this post. I would have sent you some cartons of Heineken but I will not just because of the vulgar language you used in addressing us cheesy

Nice one cool

Good morning everyone.

The subject refers,
I am a Christian. However, I have been struggling with a whole lot of non-Christian like habit. One such habit is watching pornography and masturbating. This habit has lingered for more than 10 years now.
I am an introvert probably what has made it worse and perpetual.
I don't like this act. But I usually still practice it.

I believe God loves me but he hates this act. I really don't know how to STOP IT.

Pls, I need help. This has really affected my relationship with the Holy spirit, myself, and other people please help.

Also I have discovered that in the past 2 years i have been so disorganized, and forgetful.

At work, I have been termed a LIER. I feel really embarrassed with myself when people give me something and I forget I have been given or I don't know where exactly I kept it. Then I will be asked about the same thing I won't be able to find it. Sometimes I deny it was ever given to me because I can't remember It was ever given to me.

This has brought me a lot of struggles at work(banking) and has made me ever so frustrated with myself.

I WASN'T LIKE THIS[font=Lucida Sans Unicode][/font] before. It so unfortunate this is happening to me.

My prayer life to has gone down the drain it's zero. I attend church service Sunday however due to the current lockdown I can say I don't have any relationship with God!

Please I need help
First of all, you don't know you're in warfare as a Christian. If you know, you would have known that righteousness is God's warfare strategy. If you understand your place as a soldier in the war front 247, you will no take actions that will jeopardize your life and that of those under your command.

Put on the breastplate of righteousness.

When you understand what it means and your place as a soldier of Christ on the war front, when the devil whispers sin to you. You will take yourself you are not putting whole on your amour of righteousness.

Keep telling your spirit this thing (this is war strategy to survive the attack of darkness) till your spirit understands you. When he does, he will control your body to obey but until then. The battleground is your mind.

Pray when you feel like and when you don't feel like.

Install your favourite game into your phone and play it each time you are alone. Try as much as possible to use a phone that can access internet like Nokia torch light and keep out any thing that arouse you from your room and bathroom.

God help u

My brother, you have really take a good step for not keeping this to your self.....first thing you will need to do, is to go back to the father cry unto him to save you ask for the forgiveness of your sin....and let the holy spirit dwell in you....note for you to make him accept you, you must surrender all....I mean ALL.
If you can do this with determination, I surely know our God will help you.....
I advise you to download messages about addiction I recommend my mentor message apostle Joshua selman.....
I see God helping you

Food releases dopamine. Sex between two people that are in love/lust would release dopamine. Listening to certain music you love releases dopamine. drinking water can release dopamine. Scratching an itch can release dopamine. Even daydreaming can release dopamine

You'd agree with me that each and every one of these acts aren't really wrong on their own just because they release dopamine. Dopamine isn't the problem. it's when it gets out of control that problems arise like Gluttony, Extremely high libido. glueing headphones on oneself or dying of electrolyte imbalance due to consuming too much water, scratching your body till it bleeds, spend too much time daydreaming that you become lost in that virtual world
Dopamine isn’t the problem true....but there are habits that are more likely to induce addiction than others..

Bro, breaking from masturbation and pornography is not something you can technically succeed. First, let me tell you that God answer the prayer of an honest man. A man that knows his weaknesses and commit it to the hands of the Lord. Secondly, ask for the help of Holy Spirit to keeps you in all your acts. Thirdly, stay away from any form of immortality. God bless you

anytime you feel the urge to watch porn and masturbate, just remember how miserable and useless you will be after the act, including the amount of loss of energy, nutrients and strength you will incured. your mind will get off it as soon as possible. make use of this strategy and watch yourself conquer pornography and masturbation. my 10 cents.

Everyone is a hypocrite. No one's a sanctimonious being. Apparently most Christians today about 90% struggle with thr sin of masturbation, pornography and fornication.
To be honest with you my brother the fact is that when you pray, you'll still see yourself indulging in such act over and over again which i believe most people on this forum can attest to ,even if you keep your mind pre occupied i bet you'll still falter once again and indulge in such ungodly act. I can't really assure you that you'll be able to overcome this easily it might take an enormous period of time to overcome it that's if only you will. Once you've started there's no stopping it believe me. But you just have to be optimistic about the whole scenerio and believe you can overcome

So you're saying "addiction" is the problem then? if that's it then you're right and addiction is a sign that one has lost "control" so again, control is key

Porn and masturbation addiction is a very strong manipulation of the evil forces of darkness and it will only take God’s intervention through serious prayer and fasting to be delivered from this, Ive been there and I know what I’m talking about.

Only you will pray your way out of this, there is no other way. Only fasting and prayer can completely neutralize this element of the forces of darkness in you.

Do a 3 days dry fasting, with serious prayer during the process. If possible, avoid any occasion of distraction while on this. During the fasting session, pray ceaselessly day and night, with psalms especially psalm 51.

Elements of darkness feed on what the flesh feed, no element of darkness can survive when starved for 72 hours. Do this and give God the glory.

Exactly...be real and sincere when you're talking to God or go to him in prayer. He knows you more than you know yourself....ask for grace and the spirit of God to help you. God likes when we Express our deep real emotions.
