well today was not a good day for me. I fell to the temptations of porn and self gratification. I was tired and weak at the time, and I didn't turn to God to delivered me. I went out of my way, to get this stuff. I mean man there was no fight in me. I need to set my self right with God. I have to go now, but can everyone reading this pray to God for me, to not back slide, and that God helps me get out of this whole. My name is Anthony, please pray for me.
God bless !

praying for you iron..and I also encourage you to take authority over your own spiritual life and remove the source that you are obtaining porn from...if it is the computer get rid of it if it's going to make you fall, if it's movies, trash them etc.
I know we all have moments of weakness in one area or another but we all also have to make willful choices to deny flesh what it wants too.

Dear Lord, Please help Anthony and his struggle. Please be by his side in his time of weakness and lift him up. Please let him know you care even tho he has sinned. Let the Holy Ghost fill him and rid him of Satans terrible ideas.
Anthony, I know you can do this. I know that you can get through your struggle. Grab your Bible and slowly read on....try the book of James. It is one of my favorite books in the Bible. It helps keep me on the right path. Everyone of us struggle and mess up bud. You recognize that you have and want to do better. Now repent and move on. You know you have a weakness so put on some armor and next time WIN the next fight. When I say put on your armor, i mean that you should fill your soul of God's Will throught the Bible, pray to him even more and harder, invite him to each one of your daily activities. I hope that i helped. Just rely on God, and you will make it!!

Hey, man I know the struggle that you are in!! It is a daily battle against the enemy(the world ,the flesh and the devil). What can make me fall? Practically anything thats what! Just walking out the front door, with the way that woman can dress, is all it really takes. My own imagination! This is a sex saturated culture that we live in with a lure to sexual pleasure around every corner. Their seems to be know way to truley remove myself from the temptatin for sexual pleasure.I can through out the T.V., the computer and anything else in my house that is a source of temptation!! Then I have to leave the house and there it is !! Billboards, magazine racks at the check out in the grocery stores. Girls walking around half naked. Mans it's tough!!
What the Lord has been getting accross to me is the need to win the battle in the mind!! Rejecting the first sinful thought that comes to mind. Not allowing myself to dwell on any lustful thought. This is not easy, it takes much work as I am finding out.. Romans 12:2 "let God tramsform you into a new person by changing the way you think" are thoughts is where the battle is won or lost.
So lets pray for each other!! I am in this same battle with you!!
If and when we fall, and were disappointed with ourselves and feel shame. Lets stand up and praise God anyway. He always worthy regardless how I feel about myself!!!
If you don't have a good filter on your computer http://www1.k9webprotection.com/ go here
it is free and very good filter. Just have spouse friend or parent set password.
