My struggle also started at eleven years old. I am now twenty and I still struggle but I continue to rely on the Lord and pray.❤

@@gamingwithchristian8505 Hey man! Let's be accountable to people.

I've heard a lot of people say they have this problem. However I don't think it's something inescapable. The Bible tells us no to make provision for sinful temptations, and indeed to flee from them. If certain social media is causing you to sin, then cut it off and throw it away, as Jesus would say. It may be you can just re program your social by disliking etc, but if there is no way around the content that causes you problems, is it really too radical to say just delete it? If this is effecting your relationship with Jesus, then isn't it worth it?

I’ve been struggling for the last 7 years of my life I’m now 19. I’m doing a lot better my advice is to delete all social media for like a month. It will help reset you brain and open your eyes to the earths natural beauty

@@chris-tb1xk thank you 😊

This is a very good point 🙏🎯👏 the more you eat the more you will think about food. Samw principle.

100% true.

I’m in that position right now, I pray and fast but still go into p0rn easily, I pray about it but go back, I hate it, I watched endless videos how to stop but I can’t stop, I know it’s bad but, it feels hopeless

@@jojobro123 I will pray for you 🙏 ❤️ I've been dewling with porn myself since I got exposed to it at 11 years old. Do you mind me asking if your male or female?

@@jojobro123 porn is a legitimate addiction. I'd definitely look into the app he mentions. Install a web blocker on your phone and laptop. Get a physical alarm clock and keep your phone out of your room at night.

yes i agree. although its probably harder for a man to understand a woman's point of view as well as a woman so i would bet it'd be rather difficult to make a good video like this. not impossible though.

That is true, but I think Isaac is better equipped to talk about his male experience. He could make a collab or recommend content from a Christian woman if he wants to cover more angles.

It’s applicable across the board. I think the only difference is the specifics of where each sex is getting their pornographic media, like you said. I struggle with same-sex attraction and this totally applies to me even though he’s not addressing lusting after men.

@@lewisedwards4058agreed, also i struggled with that too, God is good and helped me overcome! just wanted to encourage you

You might want to check out Girls Gone Bible. I have listened to some of their podcasts before and they both have interesting journeys to Christianity. They have videos uploaded in KZfaq as well. I hope this helps!

2 Corinthians 10:5 “Casting down imaginations, and every high thing that exalteth itself against the knowledge of God, and bringing into captivity every thought to the obedience of Christ;” King James Version (KJV) When the thought comes to you go immediately to your Bible, it is the emphatic living breathing word of God and has the ability to change you but you must repent and be baptized and read the Bible every day Shalom Brother

That’s the right thinking. I still struggle with lust on occasion, but I can confidently say I’ve shaken porn and masturbation. Social media contained the most triggers. Set screen time limits and have a friend set the passcode. Or even delete it. You got this!

@@benz_4_ducksgaming844 Yes social media feeds us the soft p*rn constantly. More and more videos are talking about it. So completely deleting it is really the only option. Screen time is great too. For me, who doesn’t really have many friends, I just started to change the screen time passcode like 5-10 times over and over really fast within 5 minutes, and then I can forget what it was. The next thing is to also change your Apple ID password to something really complicated (Apple ID is used to reset the screen time passcode). Use a password generator with lots of numbers and letters. Write down the password and then leave the piece of paper at work or something.

Jesus can heal anyone. It’s important to treat everyone with kindness and care, because that’s what Jesus would do. God bless you 🙏

What makes you so sure God intends a virgin wife for you?

​@@nataliej.3579the Lord works in mysterious ways. A virgin wife may be a stretch but at the same time a gem. Honestly, I think what the guy ment was a godly woman, as described in the Bible, but we (as men) must also have to strive to be worthy ourselves.

While a wife is a good thing, it's not the excellent route to go after one because of your burning passion You need to replace an old passion with a new one. My brother it's time to pursue harder after the Lord with passion. The danger with thinking that a wife is the solution is that if the Lord doesn't give you one, you stand to fall into sin Let's eliminate that possibility by focusing on the will of God for your life. What does the Lord want for you? Why did He make you? How can you please Him? Trust me, if you take your time to pray to the Lord about this and also study the scriptures, your old lusts will be tempered by your new passions You don't need a wife first, you need to seek the kingdom. I can help you. Can we talk?

@@akinoluolusina I understand what you mean but I don’t put it above God. I grew up in a divorced household afraid of my parents for different reasons. I have always craved affection and since 11 porn filled it for me. All I have ever desired is a godly virgin wife and that is what I pray for daily. I’ve never dated nor used any manner of substance and have no friends. I was raised Christian and now have truly come to God. I seek to put Him first but I don’t know how to find my calling. I don’t see a way forward or direction in my life and a wife would be a purpose to give me hope, affection, and love. Right now I’m just waiting for the Lords return, ww3, or 2nd rev war. I will be married and I will marry a godly virgin wife because I will not be unequally yoked. I understand your meaning but I am pursuing God first and learning more about Him and His love all the time. That doesn’t get rid of my hunger for sex though. I don’t crave porn but I do crave masturbation and I have resisted so far. I am a young man and all I have ever wanted is to feel the love of a woman but porn filled it. Now that the porn is gone I need a wife. I will court the one God leads me to or to me and I will become the best godly man that I can be for her. I won’t put it above God but it takes priority in my life above every other thing but God. Thank you. God bless.

This is encouraging. Thank you friend. I will try this and hopefully I will come back and thank you again.

It’s something I’ve struggled with breaking free from, it’s like every time I try to distance myself away from any sexual desires is like I run right back into it

@@thecrazydisneyparksfanatic921 You need to get accountability if you don't have it. I mean, have Christian men in your life that you regularly (weekly at least, more often is better) talk to and encourage/hold eachother accountable to be pure. If you don't know anyone you can trust, find a support group in your area. Confessing and repenting to God leads to forgiveness, but if you want real healing you need to bring the body into the equation be intentional about reaching out to them when you are struggling with temptation. "Is anyone among you sick? Let them call the elders of the church to pray over them and anoint them with oil in the name of the Lord. And the prayer offered in faith will make the sick person well; the Lord will raise them up. If they have sinned, they will be forgiven. Therefore confess your sins to each other and pray for each other so that you may be healed. The prayer of a righteous person is powerful and effective." - James 5:14-16

Have you tried to go to a deliverance minister? I struggled with the same thing till I went to GVBC in Tennessee to attend their mass deliverance on Sunday nights.

anything u want me to pray for specifically?

There's some kind of root. You have to figure out what it is. Pray for God to reveal it to you then attack the root with prayer

Praying for you brother. The Lord pulled me out of the mud, and I pray he does the same for you and the rest of the brothers struggling in these comments. I pray that he gives you awareness and understanding that will finally break the chains. In Jesus name

In the course of flapping around have you consciously gotten closer to the Lord by any chance? Have you decided to seek Him intensely and consciously make Him Lord over your life? When you say flapping around in the wind, it almost sounds like you haven't had any direction for 30 years. Is that by any chance what you meant?

@@akinoluolusina Sounds familiar...

@@jonathandicken3301 how do you mean? Someone has told you this before?

Agreed I think this is meant for the majority though. If someone is truly a Christian saved by God then its a detox they need. I have yet to see an example of a true Christian who is demon possessed.

Agreed

​@@harrymonster06 I'm sure you have actually but you just didn't know that what they had was a demon. I mean do you see demons? Mind you not all demons manifest violently especially when they're not being cast out I think you should learn more about this subject before you make conclusions. There are two teachers with sermons here on KZfaq that might help in your search Listen to Derek Prince teach on the subject of demons, I don't think anyone does it as well as him The you have to look for Ita Udoh's teaching in healing from oppressive spirits They are both hear ion KZfaq. May the Lord grant you understanding

making excuses about a "demon" is just a cop out, it's an efficient way to not take any accountability of oneself

@@LucianC137 sometimes the problem is actually demonic. Demons are real and they bind people truly

Monogamy and loyalty are primordial in a serious relationship. If she can't abide by the standart conditions, she isn't worth the effort. Fooling yourself and accepting her deviance will only lead you to emptiness, in the end.

@@desprezolorde True, but is it what Christ would do? I can forgive, but can I forget? That would be the hard part.

Well, here is the biblical answer if you are a Christian-it may be hard to hear, but it is what the Bible says: She is not the one for you. This is not because of her having had sexual partners before (that's certainly something that Christ can wash her clean of and make her a good wife for a future man, if she comes to Christ). Rather, Christians are forbidden from marrying non-Chrisitians, so as long as she is not a Christian she is not marriage material for you (I believe Jews who convert to Christianity are still Jews, but it sounds based off of what you said that she is not a Christian). 2 Corinthians 6:14-15 says "Don’t be unequally yoked with unbelievers, for what fellowship do righteousness and iniquity have? Or what fellowship does light have with darkness? What agreement does Christ have with Belial? Or what portion does a believer have with an unbeliever?" I think this passage probably applies beyond just marriage, but choosing who you marry is one of the biggest areas that it applies. I know it's rough man, and I will pray for you. But please don't think that this is the only chance for you! I am also in my late 20s and am single and often discouraged about finding a wife, but then I've got friends who didn't get married until their 30s or 40s. "I have to go with what I can get now even if it's not the best God has for me because it will be too late otherwise" I think is a lie the enemy uses to tempt us to make bad decisions. At the very least, it is listening to and obeying fear, and that's no way to live or walk in in the Spirit. Believe me, you do not want to marry someone who does not love Jesus. It's not that God *can't* make something good out of it, but it's the foolish course of action, like saying that you *could* survive driving your car off a bridge (dramatic example, but hopefully you get the point).

Religious J don't follow the old testament they follow the talmud, which allows s a of miners. Look it up. kethuboth 11b

@@kylethedalek Easy question, Kyle. Forgiveness requires repentance. You can only forget if you know it won't happen again. However, since we don't, do not and you will be aware to not fall on the same trap again. Learn to read the deception, to not be fooled by her or anyone.

Are you still struggling? Are you looking for help?

@@akinoluolusinaYes I already found Help and I’m comfortable with my sexuality

I've been watching it on and off since 13. We are in the same boat. I have been trying to step away from "LGB" labels and media after 10+ years. I've started walking on the path to be born again last year, but it's been extremely hard because of addiction. I have backslid a multitude of times, and I feel like a failure and a mistake every time. I need crucial help. Unfortunately, corn addiction in women isn't called about as much as it is in men.

I don’t know if you’re Christian. But as Christians (which I assume a lot of the commenters are), we get convicted by doing these things because it does not align with our faith and pleasure should ultimately be found in Jesus not self indulgence ❤

That would be because you aren’t a Christian

How are you watching Porn when you’re in a relationship? You’re cheating on your wife
