We are with you in spirit, dear brother or sister, and we appreciate your honesty and humility in coming forward with this struggle. We are not ignorant of the devil's devices, levels of cunning, and perseverance.

Your sins of pornography, masturbation, flirting, and other sexual sins are all forms of sexual immorality, which the Bible clearly warns against.

First, we must put on the full armor of God to stand against the schemes of the devil. Therefore put on the full armor of God, so that when the day of evil comes, you may be able to stand your ground, and after you have done everything, to stand. Stand therefore, having your waist girded with truth, and having put on the breastplate of righteousness, and having shod your feet with the preparation of the Gospel of peace; above all, taking the shield of faith, with which you will be able to quench all the fiery darts of the wicked one. And take the helmet of salvation, and the sword of the Spirit, which is the word of God; praying always with all prayer and supplication in the Spirit, being watchful to this end with all perseverance and supplication for all the saints. Ephesians 6:13-18, 11 WEB
We thank God that you have recognized these sins and are seeking deliverance. Repent to God and be humble before Him, and He will lift you up. Humble yourselves therefore under the mighty hand of God, that he may exalt you in due time. 1 Peter 5:6 WEB
Let us pray together:
Dear Heavenly Father,
We come before you in the name of Jesus Christ, lifting up our brother/sister who is struggling with sexual sins. Lord, we know that this is not your will for their life, and we ask that you grant them the strength to overcome these temptations. Renew their mind and make them wise to avoid these things in the future.
Father, we know that you are faithful and just to forgive their sins and to cleanse them from all unrighteousness. 1 John 1:9 WEB. We ask that you speak to them, give them understanding, and grant them deliverance from these sins. Show them your mercy, and help them to live a life that is pleasing to you.
In the powerful name of Jesus Christ, we rebuke the spirit of lust, sexual immorality, and impurity that has been attacking their life. We command it to leave and never return. We ask that you, Lord, fill them with your Holy Spirit and give them the power to live a life of purity and holiness. Amen.
Be encouraged, dear brother or sister, as God has promised that He will never leave you nor forsake you. Draw near to God, and he will draw near to you. James 4:8 WEB. Resist the devil, and he will flee from you. James 4:7 WEB.
We also encourage you to find a trusted Christian brother or sister, possibly a church leader, to confess and be accountable to concerning this situation. Confess your faults one to another, and pray one for another, that you may be healed. The effective, fervent prayer of a righteous man avails much. James 5:16 WEB. This may be difficult, but it is important to walk in the light and have a source of accountability and prayer support during this time.
Lastly, replace the bad with the good. Always be careful concerning this sin, possibly a recurring sin, and the most destructive to your spiritual life and health in this life and the life to come.
Finally, brothers, whatever things are true, whatever things are honest, whatever things are just, whatever things are pure, whatever things are lovely, whatever things are of good report; if there is any virtue, and if there is any praise, think on these things. Philippians 4:8 WEB
