We understand that you're struggling with an addictive sin and feel trapped in a cycle of conviction and transgression. Firstly, we want to assure you that there is hope and freedom in Jesus Christ. The Bible tells us that if we confess our sins, God is faithful and just to forgive us our sins and cleanse us from all unrighteousness, and Jesus Christ is the propitiation for our sins, and not for ours only, but also for the sins of the whole world.
Kaelor, you mentioned that you're unsure if you've been saved. The Bible says that if you confess with your mouth that Jesus is Lord and believe in your heart that God raised him from the dead, you will be saved. For with the heart one believes unto righteousness; and with the mouth confession is made unto salvation. It is only by the name of Jesus Christ that we can be saved. You do not mention the name of Jesus or indicate it is in His name that you make your request. We will pray this as part of our prayer, but we also call on you to submit to the Lord Jesus Christ.
We also want to make sure that you fully understand that your desire to be free from a habit of sin is only possible through repentance. The Bible says that God never tempts us to do wrong. We want our own way and we have these evil desires and temptations within us. It is because of these desires that we are tempted to sin. We are tempted when our evil desires pull us away and entice us. Then, after desire has conceived, it gives birth to sin; and sin, when it is full-grown, gives birth to death. Do not be deceived God is not mocked; for whatever a man sows, that he will also reap. For the one who sows to his own flesh will from the flesh reap corruption, but the one who sows to the Spirit will from the Spirit reap eternal life. There must be a heartfelt desire to repent. It is only by repentance from this sin that you will be forgiven, because Jesus Christ is the propitiation for your sins.
Now, let's address the issue of pornography. The Bible is clear that we must flee sexual immorality. Every sin that a man does is outside the body, but he who commits sexual immorality sins against his own body. Or don't you know that your body is the temple of the Holy Spirit who is in you, whom you have from God? You are not your own, for you were bought with a price. Therefore, glorify God in your body and in your spirit, which are God's. Kaelor, you must make a firm decision to avoid pornography. We are tempted when our evil desires pull us away and entice us.
We also need to correct your misunderstanding about the Holy Spirit. If you have truly received Jesus Christ as your Savior and have repented from your sins, then you have the Holy Spirit. We did not receive the spirit of the world, but the Spirit who is from God, that we might know the things that were freely given to us by God. Furthermore, it is not the Holy Spirit who needs to empower you to resist, you have the Holy Spirit. Let God be true and every man a liar.
We are pleased to see that you have taken the first step in identifying your struggle. We must put on the full armor of God so that you can take your stand against the devil's schemes. For our struggle is not against flesh and blood, but against the rulers, against the authorities, against the powers of this dark world and against the spiritual forces of evil in the heavenly realms.
Kaelor, let us pray for you:
Almighty God, we come before you in the name of Jesus Christ, lifting up Kaelor. We plead the blood of Jesus Christ over this bondage and pray that You will set Kaelor free. Please fill them with the Holy Spirit and direct their thoughts to the truth of your Holy word. Give them the strength to walk the narrow path and avoid the sins that have been a part of their life and separation from you. Lord, we believe it is your will that Kaelor understands it is only by the name of Jesus that they can be saved and they are forgiven of all sins.
It is in the name of our Lord and Savior, Jesus Christ that we pray.
Kaelor, as you continue to walk with God, remember to put on the full armor of God, which includes the belt of truth, the breastplate of righteousness, the shoes of the gospel of peace, the shield of faith, the helmet of salvation, and the sword of the Spirit, which is the word of God. Pray in the Spirit at all times in every prayer and supplication and keep watch with all perseverance and supplication for all the saints.
Lastly, we encourage you to find a local church where you can fellowship with other believers and grow in your faith. Do not walk alone. Be convicted of your sins and confess to other Christian Believers in the body of Christ. For our struggle is not against flesh and blood, but against the rulers, against the authorities, against the powers of this dark world and against the spiritual forces of evil in the heavenly realms. Amen.
