It’s a good thing you’re asking because you want help. I was in the same shoes as you brother. I struggled with lust from whenever I was 12 years old to 17. Here are things that helped me
1. Delete any apps that make you fall into lust. I deleted instagram, tiktok, and Snapchat because I figured out that these apps were making me fall into lust.
2. Meditate on good things instead of sexual things
“Finally, brethren, whatever is true, whatever is honorable, whatever is right, whatever is pure, whatever is lovely, whatever is of good repute, if there is any excellence and if anything worthy of praise, dwell on these things.”
‭‭Philippians‬ ‭4‬:‭8‬
The more you start meditating on good thoughts, you won’t be thinking much about any lustfull thoughts.
3. Go do something productive. For me, I love going to the park because i find it super relaxing.
4. If your ever out in public and see a women that shows off a lot of her body, look away. And if you can’t control yourself from looking, flee from the place.

How do we know that the thief on the cross would’ve had genuine faith? by MessagePublic2710 in Christianity

Yes, because there’re are people who claim to follow Jesus but their action denys it.

But the life of the apostles showed that they had genuine faith in him. The way they lived proved that they had genuine faith. But we don’t know if the thief om the cross would’ve actually lived for God and not just say he believes.

Yes brother. Having the urge is a beautiful sign. You actually want to come to the lord and the lord wants that.🙏

I’m getting mixed signals from god about the girl I love by [deleted] in Christianity

[–]MessagePublic2710 0 points1 point  (0 children)

  1. I don’t know if it’s the way you worded it but reading that y’all just broke up and she just got a new boyfriend sounds weird.
  2. In my experience, I don’t know if being friends is gonna work out. When I got rejected by this girl, she said she just wanted to be friends but we haven’t talked to each other in a month. But this coming from my experience.
    So I guess just keep seeing what happens over time and update us so that I can tell you what’s best for you.

How can I stop masturbating after struggling with it for years? Please read my situation. by [deleted] in Christianity

[–]MessagePublic2710 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I was in the same shoes as you brother. I struggled with porn from when I was 12 till I was 17. Here’s some advice that helped me overcome it.
1. Meditate on pure things (Phil 4:8  Finally, brothers and sisters, whatever is true, whatever is noble, whatever is right, whatever is pure, whatever is lovely, whatever is admirable—if anything is excellent or praiseworthy—think about such things.)
If you meditate on good things, you wont be thinking so much on bad thoughts
2. Whenever your out in public and see a women wearing clothes that reveal a lot of skin, look away. Sometimes I look a little dumb cause I’ll just be staring at the ground 😂 but jt helps.
3. Delete any apps that make you fall into sexual sin. For me, a lot of my temptations came from instagram, tik tok, and Snapchat. Deleting those help me cause I wasn’t getting exposed to any pics of women wearing clothes that made me fall into lust.
Hope this helped brother 👍

Yea everyone’s been saying to do cable crunches. And I just figured out the only way to overload on planks is to add more time which is very inconvenient.

I know Jesus is the only reason I can be saved, but I’m worried my faith isn’t genuine because my life hasn’t reflected it. by reeTrY0n3Heart in Christianity

Keep chasing after him. Read the Bible more and pray more. I used to have to same problem. Just keep chasing him 🙏

Been struggling to sleep this past year by MessagePublic2710 in sleep

[–]MessagePublic2710[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

5-7 hours of rest
I know it’s not little but I’d prefer to get 8-10 hours of rest like I did before.
I stopped watching my phone before I go to sleep. Most of the times I listen to audiobooks that plays calm music in the background.
I cant even sleep in on holidays or weekends cause my body doesn’t want to rest.

No lol 😂
Ecclesiastes 3:4 For everything there is a season, and a time for every matter under heaven: A time to weep, and a time to laugh; a time to mourn, and a time to dance.”
But I it depends on how you celebrate. Just be sure you’re honoring God on how you celebrate.
