I was hoping someone introduced romance novels. I was never into porn, but I believe the romance novels are more problematic. I started reading romance at 13. Romance novels require your full attention and immersion in the fantasy. The romantic fantasy cloaks the sin. Everyone knows to hide their porn because they know it is wrong. You can walk into a room and romance novels will be on full display.

@@ryanbailey8588 You are ignorant Ryan. Google the effects porn has on not only your brains chemistry but your entire personhood as a whole! Emotions towards women, even men become jaded and cold, Self centred and numb. Your drive for life is exuded your passions and ability or willingness to act on opportunities runs dry. Porn is not biology, it is a means to dump a concentrated saturation of chemicals you are not meant to be absorbing at that magnitude. Women taking advantage of mens financial resources is not in the same league as you tricking your body you have access to endless partners at the same time whenever you want them with no effort whatsoever. As your pleasure decreases you will find more and more fucked up shit to drain yourself to. That's not who you have to be. A serial killer said it best, porn is dangerous.

As a 22 year old virgin, I definitely struggle with this. I turn to this sinful act as a void from feeling lonely and inexperienced in comparison to those around me. What I can say about sexual sin is that it's at a all time high because people desire pleasure and will get it however and wherever they can get it. All I ask is for prayer. Thanks y'all. ❤

I was a virgin at your age too and I was also watching it then too in large part because I wasn't able to freely speak on sexual feelings I was having at the time with people who would point me to God. The only people I could be open with were non Christians who told me it was natural and normal. Although sexual desire is natural, obsessing over it is not. I suggest to find someone to point you to God, someone you can be open with about your desires and someone who doesn't find it taboo.

This was so good. As a woman who struggled not only with porn but also sex addiction, I was and am very visual. After being introduced to porn I couldn’t get those images out of my head. So without pressing play on a vhs tape or go to porn sites, I just closed my eyes and could see those images play the sounds of moans and groaning and satisfy my desires through Masturbation. It became my vise when tired and frustrated seasons of my life.But then it turned into OMG I can’t stop and didn’t want to because it helped me sleep away all of the things I didn’t want to deal with. As a single believer I still struggle with wanting to satisfy myself and I justified it by believing the lies of the enemy ( it’s not like you’re having sex with anyone). One day I heard Holy Spirit say “Are you done yet?” I literally cried like a baby😩James 1:13-15 MSG jacked me up. I felt so dirty. Needless to say the now conviction leads me to repent.

I personally found out during those years that I struggled badly with porn, it always affected my meditation on God's word, my imagination was really distorted, I couldn't plug in my emotion into God's word anymore, I was burning out easily, my will was taken over, the things I wanted to do, I couldn't do them anymore, and I felt totally miserable, I got to a point where I was hardened in my heart, then I discovered the exposure I was faced with in my heart ultimately was set to destroy me...Until I saw that scripture in Rom 8:1. If a man's heart can be distorted, every aspect of his life will be affected, because it is with the same heart he makes decisions in everyday affair, with the same heart he relates with God, so I believe on the path of healing, the same way the heart was exposed to porn, that same heart must be exposed to God's word, the heart must be immersed in this truth, that I have been set free......I don't know how long it will take, but I know constant exposure to God's word does change the heart, it heals and strengthens the heart, it doesn't matter the number of years the person has been held bound.

Your husband mentioned that he didn’t know why in his dream he sat in a rocking chair because the only place you have one is in the nursery. But I think that it’s amazing that even to the smallest details the Lord was trying to speak to him in the dream. Caregivers use rocking chairs to hold their babies and rock them to sleep, rocking chairs represent relaxation, you sit back and chill... so it coincides with the message of resting in the Lord.

I was a sex worker, but before that, I was addicted to porn because I was both molested and exposed to porn at a very young age. I became a Christian in my 20s, and struggled with a porn addiction right up until my early 40s. I kept praying and asking God to deliver me because it made me feel dirty and ashamed. A couple of months ago, He did. It was like a chain that held me, snapped. I haven't watched it since. Now the temptation is non-existent, but it happened because I really wanted to be free and kept asking because I was in spiritual distress.

I’m 20 & a few months ago I completely stopped watching porn and masturbating because I watched porn before I went to sleep one night and woke up to a sleep paralysis episode. It was the most frightening thing I’ve ever experienced because it was so real. The demon was stroking my thigh and I couldn’t move so I was scared that it was going to have sex with me or something. When it was over I hit my brother n law up and say hey I had this sleep paralysis episode and it was so scary & he asked me what did you do before you went to sleep? And I immediately said I can’t do this anymore. I believe that porn and masturbation is an agreement with the spirit of Lust and if you open yourself up to that it is severely detrimental. I thank God that I no longer have the desire to watch porn anymore. There are still a lot of things I am dealing with when it comes to Lust like fornication that I am still working through but I’m taking it one step at a time and I know for one thing that my spirit needs to be cleansed of those images or fantasies that I picked up while watching porn.

Matthew 5:27-28 KJV [27] Ye have heard that it was said by them of old time, Thou shalt not commit adultery: [28] but I say unto you, That whosoever looketh on a woman to lust after her hath committed adultery with her already in his heart. John 8:31-32 KJV [31] Then said Jesus to those Jews which believed on him, If ye continue in my word, then are ye my disciples indeed; [32] and ye shall know the truth, and the truth shall make you free. Romans 12:2 KJV [2] And be not conformed to this world: but be ye transformed by the renewing of your mind, that ye may prove what is that good, and acceptable, and perfect, will of God. Ephesians 4:22-24 KJV [22] that ye put off concerning the former conversation the old man, which is corrupt according to the deceitful lusts; [23] and be renewed in the spirit of your mind; [24] and that ye put on the new man, which after God is created in righteousness and true holiness. Ephesians 5:25-27 KJV [25] Husbands, love your wives, even as Christ also loved the church, and gave himself for it; [26] that he might sanctify and cleanse it with the washing of water by the word, [27] that he might present it to himself a glorious church, not having spot, or wrinkle, or any such thing; but that it should be holy and without blemish. All these scriptures are saying: 1- According to God's holy standard, when we look at someone lustfully in our heart, the act is already done in the sight of God. So porn is dangerous because it makes us adulterous in God's sight. 2- If we continue in the Word, we will lay hold on the Truth and it shall set us free. 3- We are not to be conformed to this world, but to be transformed by the renewing of our mind. 4- We need to receive Jesus Christ, and then be renewed in the spirit of our mind, so we can put off the old man which is corrupt according to the deceitful lusts and put on the new man which after God is created in righteousness and true holiness. 5- Also, know that on top of the blood that has taken away our sins, the water of the Word is what cleanses us, makes us spotless and without blemish, so that Christ can receive us. You are loved, just receive Jesus, follow Him and forget the former things which were all based on a lie and deceitful lusts. God bless you, love from Nigeria.🇳🇬🙏🥰❤

kzfaq.info/get/bejne/oMlka7Bq18e4mJc.html This is my home church and this message got me out of the most crippling season of anxiety I battled. Months straight of rocking myself to sleep praying to be healed and listening to worship music as I tried to fall asleep. I found power in the testimony within this video of Pastor Kevin’s daughters story. Just knowing that she overcame it. Knowing that it IS possible gave me strength. I told myself, “it wasn’t always like this, so it’s not going to be!” The best advice I can give is: learn your triggers, stay present when you feel it creep up. You need to distract or trick your mind. If I start to feel anxious I freestyle in my head, things I see as I’m walking or sitting or wherever it tends to happen. It keeps me rooted to where I currently am. If you play an instrument, do that. For me acoustic guitar calms me and puts my mind on playing. Heck, if you don’t play an instrument, learn! It’ll give your mind soemthing to do literally activate new brain cells and pathways. There’s multiple Ted talks on the brain and functions. Once I learned you can literally change your brain and way of thinking, it unlocked a whole new outlook for me. No longer was I a slave to my fear and anxiety. But with time and repetition and speaking truth into it UNTIL it became true, I fought. And Faith was my fuel. I pray you find your own strength and when you can’t seem to find it, lean on His! Bless you, Emma. You’re not alone. Not today, not yesterday and not tomorrow. 💙💙💙

The Sex and City DVDs, the trashy Romance novels I was still holding onto, the slightly provocative clothing... And this went a long way in me not being able to stay delivered.

I loveeee that you guys are talking about this topic because everything you spoke about is on point. I’m a 22-year old girl (in case you can’t tell from my African name😂) and I started watching porn when I was 13 or 14 and I always convinced myself that it wasn’t wrong because “it’s not like I’m having sex” and I never realized how it was affecting me until I was in church and those images would flash in my mind and I didn’t know how to get rid of them. The weird thing was that I would always catch myself looking at men’s private part area especially when in church and that’s when I started hating it. But even with the hate, I still looked at porn, I would even get into relationship and be very firm about not having sex before marriage but I’d still watch porn. And then in 2019 I remember watching porn and just waking up repenting soooo much the next morning and the worst part was that I felt as though watching it that time had taken something out of me, and that day I cried out to God that He would help me because I’m tired of always repenting. After that I realized that the reason I was watching porn was because I wanted to feel loved, I wanted to feel like I was worth it, which was a very interesting (for lack of a better word) because I’m a confident person and I thought I had an unshakable sense of self, but after that I realized that what I need is just for God to heal me and to know Him more than I did. And I’m only realizing this now, but a few months (about 4-6 months) after that moment, I started being filled with hunger for God, like I just want more of God and seeking Him has been an amazing rollercoaster of days where I feel like I’m getting to know God more and then other days of getting tired because I’m not where I want to be in my relationship with Him. And on one of the days where I was feeling a bit tired and I had just watched a sermon where the preacher touched on porn, I remember thinking to myself “With the hunger for God I’m feeling right now, if it was the old me, I would have ran to porn a long time ago, but now I don’t even have the desire for it, no cravings, NOTHING” and all I can say to that is TO GOD BE ALL THE GLORY.

Wow wow wow!!! This is amazing🙌🏾🙌🏾 praise God for taking your desire of porn away and replacing it with a yearning, hunger & thirst for more of HIM in your life! I pray that The Lord send His spirit to continue to encourage you & spur you on in your journey. Remember, it’s a marathon, not a race and even when you “feel” like you’ve reached a pinnacle in your walk with Christ, there’s ALWAYS so much more to learn and know about His character & word💜

Love this! We have a similar story. I was introduced at a younger age. I never really knew what the root of it was even still to this day. Same year as you, I was heavily convicted and I got down on my knees, repented, and have been free since then. The masturbation part though.... that was another journey. I had to fast and pray to be free. I no longer have the desire for neither, no cravings, etc. I remember when I used to do it, I could also feel something leave me. Like something died inside of me. BUT GOD. Im freeee. Its still a struggle sometimes bc images flash in my mind from time to time. Constantly need my mind to be renewed.

So... Preston's dream almost had me in tears... for years my father has ALWAYS said to me, "Baby girl, the devil is patient." And as Preston was describing how the wolf was stealthily walking towards his home and being very intentional about how to enter his domain: patiently seeing how to open the windows or peer into the house, it was a literal picture of what my dad always taught me. The devil is patient and if we don't sit in our own rocking chairs of trusting in Jesus, not just with porn, but in every other void, empty and even ignored places of our lives where we just go about life on our own, the enemy will use our complacency in not resting/trusting in Christ as a tool to cleverly enter in. Because... just as much as God wants us, Satan does too, even though his intent is to lead us away from a life on earth as well as an eternity with the Heavenly Father. Thank you both so much for this video in Jesus name.

I was about to watch porn just now and then when I went to turn of the lights I asked myself, “is this worth sacrificing everything I prayed for to watch this”. The scripture “if my people who are called by my name will humble themselves and pray and seek my face and turn away from their wicked ways, THEN will I hear them from heaven and heal their land.“ I can’t expect my prayers for my relationship, and friendships, and college application, and this grant I’m applying for, and me taking care of my grandparents, etc. to even be heard if I deliberately continue in my wicked ways. (Let alone I don’t please God) And none of that including where I’ve gotten with God is worth losing to watch porn right now. So I exited out of the website and came here. Thank God this video is so long. I’m gonna be too tired to watch porn after this and I’ll probably not want to watch it after the end of this 😭

Jackie, I want to piggy back what you said about erotic literature and it’s popularity due to a woman’s desire for security, which heightens our attraction to the masculine characters that take control. I think the other part of that is a woman’s desire to relinquish control. Women tend to be the busy bodies, making sure everyone else around her is good and taking less time for self care. So much so that it is almost fantasy-like to hand that control over and let someone else take the reigns to make sure we are good, too. I think that’s what makes erotic literature such a secular treat for women...the actual handing over of control.

That 20 min mark convicted my heart. Whew. Porn has been a part of all of my life for most of my life (introduced to it at age 4/5, and my earliest memories in general start at age 3). It’s always been like a quick fix for me when feeling unpleasant levels of emotional stress (anger being the root, but also fear, worry, guilt, shame, etc.) that I feel I cannot regulate otherwise. It has also been a form of rebellion for me whenever I'm being called to do something I feel unprepared for. So there are segments of my life I recall it being a more salient practice than it was at other times. At 34, I am tired, and have been for some time. I keep coming back to God after I stumble, but I find myself feeling similarly as I did at ages 13-16 or ages 20-22 or 28-30, where I start to feel hopeless. I have a therapist, a coach, and a developing circle of support, but it just never feels like enough.

Thank you for being so vulnerable and open about the struggles of porn addiction, I personally wasn’t a big fan of porn but I loved romance novels and erotic stories but those started to feel boring to me, so I switched to porn and let me tell you every time I would watch it I’d feel so empty and gross inside. I knew it was wrong to watch it but I still continued because I was trying to fill a void. I even started telling myself that I don’t need marriage because it’ll be as uneventful as porn. So far it’s been a month since I’ve stopped watching porn or reading any erotic/romance novels, but I know that this is a battle that I will have to continue to fight through God’s help and strength. Sorry for the long response, but I really liked your vulnerability so I felt inspired to share my struggle as well. Keep going God’s on our side 🙌🏾

Is the woman you really want something you seen in a porn ? Like has the porn you’ve watched influenced the kind of woman you want sexually to settle down with? Like if you’re into multiple partner porn ... do you want a woman who is down with that based on the type of porn you watch ?

God sees you. Try fasting and praying/reading scripture, running to God to fight temptation. You’ll be starving your flesh and getting fed spiritually. I hope you’re experiencing longer seasons of deliverance.

Thanks for the honesty. But if watching a vid of someone have sex still means you don’t have that person.

Thank you guys for this video. The rocking chair is about comfort and consistency. Rocking chairs go back and fourth. It’s a representation of how we have to always go back to gods word to move forward in his promise. Going back to him would have helped you move forward in your marriage. But instead you went back to porn and backwards in your walk towards the purpose. We get so tired of repeating the process but when we stop, the process ends too. You can not fight the devil if you aren’t sitting at Gods feet and going back to him whenever we feel led to stray to our worldly comfort and run from being consistent in the word and in meditation with him. This is what came to me. I pray you keep trusting God to help you stay away. You’re so strong and the lord has carried you all through so much. You are both helping so much!

I LOVE how the Perry's be having these conversations and revelation after revelation just be pouring out and each person is able to benefit and understand God in a new dimension!!! That's the unmatchable and beautiful bond of unity you get when speaking with fellow genuine believers! That's what I call relationship goals!!! 💗💪🏾❤️🙏🏾

It makes women "objects" , and and when a woman feels like her husband treats her like an object rather than a person, there can be no true intimacy. I can totally relate to what Preston says about "releasing their lusts". And amen to Jachie's comment about the church needing to talk about sex from the pulpit. It's not a dirty thing, it's the enemy who has perverted sex, and it needs to be talked about. Porn is a worship disorder, people worship their way into their addiction and so they need to worship their way out, gospel gospel gospel! I love the way you put it Jackie, Jesus is the bread of life, only he can satisfy, "If I need comfort, look to Jesus, if I need love, look to Jesus, etc." And the sheep allegory is so good. May the Lord use this conversation for his glory and for the good of the lost sheep.

This is such a deep discussion that gives hope in Jesus Christ!😀🤩😍 My favorite part is when y'all said, "Faith is fighting and resting is fighting."👏🏽👍🏽✔ That really resonated with me and I couldn't help but think about God's Seventh Day Sabbath from Friday Sundown to Saturday Sundown which is a weekly date and reminder of how we should rest in His power and love because He is the Creator, Redeemer, Provider and Sustainer.❤💯 God bless you immensely for this encouraging message!😊🙌🏽🙏🏽

I’ve seen so many pornography videos in my feed lately. Either videos like this or ppl with testimonies of how God delivered them from this sin. I know this is God talking to me. I’ve struggled with pornography for over 13 years now. Breaking this chain is something I’ve been praying fervently for during these 21 days of fasting.

You guys, This content is stuff I thought no content creator in the Christian realm discussed to such blunt, gory, truth telling ways. This has accessed so much information about the real internal struggle of lust that I've battled with for so many years. Thank you guys for sharing this, and being able to deny yourself and talk about such seemingly embarrassing issues in your marriage and personal lives. Big big fan of this type of convo. God Bless!

I think for many porn addiction starts with wanting love and security, and when we don’t have that or to the extent we truly desire it’s easy for us to interpret that wanting as lust and then give into it. I think making that realization is a first step, and then the next step is to find the kind of love and security we want in Christ Jesus because He has already proven (through His work on the cross and His gospel) that there is no greater love than His and no safer, secure place outside of Him.

Also, it’s crazy how I overlooked “the shield of faith” in the armor of God. I always run to “the sword of the Spirit which is the word of God.” I guess my brain made the connection that a sword will be the best and greater than a shield. I definitely look at the armor of God differently now. The Lord shows me daily how much faith and trust in Him is our ultimate. Oh, the word about rest! My God! 🙌🏾👏🏾
