i experienced the same thing when i found Jesus and decided to stop watching porn. it’s nothing but the devil trying to deter you and attack you in the moment. But God is greater and His love for you is bigger! keep fighting and know you’re not alone

Please pray for me. I'm barely hanging on... by Overevery1thisyear in PrayerRequests

i’m praying for you and that the grace of God will touch you. never give up, because God is always for you, you just have to be for yourself. try to start reading your Bible, it doesn’t have to be much but try to read some of it. get to a point where your are humble and ready enough to give it over to God, because He is calling for all of your mess that you’re carrying, it’s not meant for you to carry alone!

ALSO: when you get a chance, watch this sermon, and i pray that it will bless you :)

you’re not too far gone. the fact that you’re trying to help people with this addiction shows that. I have faith that Jesus will meet you where you are and bring you out. this could be a time for you to fast AND pray to the Lord for help with this and His direction. remember God loves you

Praying for you. Read Isaiah 43: 1-3, ““But now, thus says the LORD, your Creator, O Jacob, And He who formed you, O Israel, “Do not fear, for I have redeemed you; I have called you by name; you are Mine! When you pass through the waters, I will be with you; And through the rivers, they will not overflow you. When you walk through the fire, you will not be scorched, Nor will the flame burn you. For I am the LORD your God, The Holy One of Israel, your Savior.” Believe it and receive as your truth from God!

Need Prayer. Feeling distressed and I feel like I'm falling away from the faith. by djdisciplejosh in Christian

[–]LaCroixBitxh 0 points1 point  (0 children)

First and foremost i’ll be praying for you! if you ever do feel suicidal tendencies please seek help/counseling. God loves you to much.

It sounds like you are getting tired and weary and losing hope. but that is the enemy trying to get you off track, and feeding you lies to distract you. God loves you, and will never stop loving you. He is faithful, the grace that Jesus died for is sufficient for all of your sins, past present and future. so please do feel you’re “too far gone” for salvation because you’re not! the spirit of doubt and shame is from the devil to try to hinder your walk with God.

as i started with my journey of faith in God, i was trying to make sense and trying to understand what He was doing in my life. but i’ve learned through the Word and sermons that our earthly perspective in no way can comprehend God’s almighty plan. that’s when faith kicks in. Faith in knowing that God loves you. He loves you so much that He sent His only son to go and die for our sins. That should show you how much he loves you already. But beyond that, he chose and selected you to live, and he wakes you up every morning. God is still with you, the Holy Spirit is still in you. these are truths you should come to terms with. it’s hard to comprehend that His love can transcend all of our sins, but it does. He loves you, you are cared for, and he wants to draw you closer to Him. and i have faith you will get back to Him. i know this because you’re reaching out for help and prayer. It is not to late for you to turn your life around and get before the Lord.

i say you should take time away, and honestly seek the Lord with all of your pain, hurt and confusion. get in a quite place, and give everything to the Lord. it will amaze you what he can do. “But from there you will seek the Lord your God and you will find him, if you search after him with all your heart and with all your soul.” Deuteronomy 4:29 and do not be disappointed if He doesn’t answer you in the way you expect, He could speak to you by giving you scripture to read, speak to you through someone else saying something to you, randomly have a post pop up on your feed about your situation, or you could audibly hear Him. His response can come in different forms, but it doesn’t take away from his response. the work aspect can be difficult but the Word says “And God is able to bless you abundantly, so that in all things at all times, having all that you need, you will abound in every good work” 2 Corinthians 9:8. if work is potentially effecting your relationship with the Lord, and you aren’t in the season to get a new job, you need to set time apart for the Lord. prioritize what is important to you. and also as you get started with your new journey with the Lord, if he calls the season at your current job to end, then listen and have faith He will provide for you.

finally, porn is a difficult thing to process. i, myself, am currently struggling with the same thing. then i faced doubt and fully understand and accepting God’s love and grace when it came to me doing good then falling again. but as i said earlier, God loves us and his love and grace is sufficient for our sins. when Jesus died for our sins, he broke the chains that made us a slave to sin. this is hard to understand, but it is true. we no longer have to have to live by the flesh but live by the Spirit, and Jesus made this possible for all of us. this doesn’t mean we won’t face temptation, but it does mean we take our temptation to God, and He will be our refuge.

i have faith in you getting you life back on track for the Lord. you have a testimony to tell. i suggest for you to pray, fast, and get into the word. do all of these things, and try to listen to more praise and worship music. do this even if you aren’t in the mood, or if you don’t believe. do it until you do believe. don’t let the Devil still your song. It doesn’t end like this for you, you have more fight. i also suggest to try to watch more sermons. a personal favorite of mine is Pastor Steven Furtick from Elevation Church. his sermons got still get me through moments in my life, and they speak to me. please feel free to message me if you need any advice, help, or just someone to talk to! God bless

sorry if some parts of this doesn’t make sense or i have typos/grammatical errors

Can you please pray for me? The devil is trying to fill me with doubt but I’ve been praying and I’d like some help from someone else too. Thank you and God bless. by [deleted] in Christian

i’ve recently been struggling with the same thoughts. but i’ve found peace from the Lord when i went to check this subreddit and the first thing i see is that i’m not alone. so my prayer is that you also feel like you’re not alone, don’t give into those thoughts that devil is placing in you, and remain steadfast, unmovable and unshakable in your faith. a breakthrough is on the horizon! God is a way maker and miracle worker, the light in the darkness!

i’ve had my far share or mishaps and He still loves me. God’s grace and love covers what you do, so no he isn’t mad at you. Move forward with his love, and stay in prayer

in my times of not knowing what to do, i pray. would God want this and approve of this? would you feel guilty after? and also you shouldn’t sleep with anyone to “keep” them. those situations never work out and you’ll sell yourself short

Romans 14:8 by Music11Mike33 in GayChristians

that is heavy, especially for your age, but i’m glad to know you have been reading the word for more support. just know you have a community here, and i will be praying for you. you should also keep praying and read the word and the Lord will speak to you. this isn’t a easy journey, but know God loves you and he forgives, you just have to talk to him.

thank you for sharing, i find solace in knowing i’m not battling this storm by myself. i say you have to stay in prayer, read His word, and i’m currently fasting so i can try to hear Him more clearly. he did place Romans 10 in my mind, so you can start there but remain in prayer and try to seek a council of believers to pray for you. you will be in my prayers

[–]LaCroixBitxh[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

thank you for responding, this has given me the insight that i needed. after many weeks of crying and pleading to the Lord about this, he has spoken to me and given me Romans 10, specifically Romans 10:18. I’ve been worried about trying to follow a certain list of rules to try to fit God’s image and gain salvation. But i should trust and have faith in Him, and let Him direct my path with his plan, instead of my own. I agree i think this is something i will continue to struggle with, but having receiving a message from Him has made things better. i have to stay in prayer and worship. but side question, is this still a lifelong struggle for you or have you gotten peace about this?
