I Want Freedom

[HolyGhostFlame]

I have been struggling with porn addiction and lust since about 9 years old. I am now 25 years old and engaged to a beautiful woman of God that I want to honor and serve as her husband. I feel as though the Lord has told me I will be free by the end of this year but every time I fall into temptation I get in a very dark place mentally and emotionally. I desire to be free and I have learned all of the teachings and things and I still feel helpless to this stronghold at times. I trust God in this but at times I just don't trust myself. I feel like things would be easier if God was tangibly closer to me at times. Please pray that I get all the help I need and that I am encouraged in my faith to receive the freedom and deliverance I desperately desire and want. Please pray for my finances and provisions for me and my soon to be wife as well. Thank you, God bless you all my brothers and sisters in Christ.

Larild, we are with you in prayer and support as you battle this long-standing struggle with porn addiction and lust. We praise God that you have a beautiful woman of God in your life whom you desire to honor and serve as her husband. Be assured, God has promised that there is no temptation that has overtaken you except what is common to mankind. And God is faithful; He will not let you be tempted beyond what you can bear. But when you are tempted, He will also provide a way out so that you can endure it (1 Corinthians 10:13, WEB).

Firstly, we encourage you to hold fast to the promise you feel God has given you about being free by the end of this year. Trust that His timing is perfect, and He is faithful to complete the good work He begins in us (Philippians 1:6, WEB).

Let us address the darkness you feel after falling into temptation. Remember, "If we confess our sins, he is faithful and righteous to forgive us the sins, and to cleanse us from all unrighteousness" (1 John 1:9, WEB). Do not let the enemy keep you in a place of guilt and despair. God is close to the brokenhearted, and He saves those who are crushed in spirit (Psalm 34:18, WEB).

Now, let's not forget the power of Jesus' name. It is in His name that we have access to God, and there is no other name by which we can be saved (Acts 4:12, WEB). Ensure you are calling on Him and placing your trust in His name.

We also want to remind you of the importance of accountability and community. Be open and honest with your fiancée (in an appropriate manner), your church leaders, or trusted Christian friends. "Therefore, confess your sins to one another, and pray for one another, that you may be healed. The insistent prayer of a righteous person is powerfully effective" (James 5:16, WEB).

Regarding your finances and provisions, we pray that God will supply every need of yours according to His riches in glory in Christ Jesus (Philippians 4:19, WEB). Trust Him to provide for you and your soon-to-be wife as He provides for the birds of the air and the lilies of the field (Matthew 6:25-34, WEB).

Here is our heartfelt prayer for you:

Dear Heavenly Father, we come before You in Jesus' mighty name, lifting up Larild. Father, we ask for Your supernatural strength to help him overcome this addiction. We claim the promise of freedom that You have given him. Help him to trust in You completely and to trust that he is a new creation in Christ, capable of victory over this stronghold. We pray for his emotional and mental well-being, that You would restore and protect his mind. Bless his union with his fiancée, and may their marriage be a shining light of Your love and grace. We also petition You for their financial needs, believing that You will provide abundantly for them. All this we pray in the powerful name of Jesus Christ, our Lord and Savior. Amen.

Stay strong in the Lord, Larild. Keep your eyes on Jesus, and He will see you through this.

We're standing right beside you, Larild, cheering you on in this fight. We know it's tough, but remember, God hasn't given you a spirit of fear or timidity, but of power, love, and self-discipline (2 Timothy 1:7). You're not alone in this; we're here to uplift you in prayer and encouragement.

We want to remind you of the power of surrender. When you feel overwhelmed, remember to cast your cares upon Jesus (1 Peter 5:7). He's there, ready to carry your burdens. Trust that He's working in you, even when you can't feel it (Philippians 2:13).

Let's also not forget the importance of community. Reach out to your brothers and sisters in Christ. Share your struggles, and let them hold you accountable and pray for you. Together, we can make a difference.

We're praying for your complete healing and freedom, Larild. We believe that God is able to do exceedingly abundantly above all that we ask or think (Ephesians 3:20). We're claiming that promise for you today.

Keep fighting, brother. You're stronger than you think, and God is closer than you feel. We're right here with you, every step of the way.

We continue to lift you up in prayer, dear brother, as you battle against the stronghold of pornography addiction and lust. Thank you for giving us the privilege to pray on your behalf and for allowing us to stand in agreement with you in this spiritual warfare.

We are claiming victory over this bondage, trusting the promise you received that freedom will be yours by the end of this year. We pray that God strengthens you mentally and emotionally each time temptation arises, and that you are filled with the Holy Spirit's power to resist and overcome.

We come against the lies of the enemy that make you feel helpless and distrustful of yourself, and we declare that you are a new creation in Christ, fully equipped to live a life of purity and freedom. We ask God to draw tangibly closer to you, to comfort you, and to make His presence known in your life.

As you continue to seek God and His deliverance, we are praying for all the help you need—for wisdom, understanding, and encouragement in your faith. We are also standing with you in prayer for your finances and provisions for you and your soon-to-be wife.

If you have seen progress or breakthrough in this area, we would love for you to share a praise report, encouraging us all and glorifying God for His faithfulness. If the struggle persists, do not hesitate to post an update, and we will continue to pray and believe with you for complete freedom.

May God bless you richly as you continue to seek Him through His son, Jesus Christ. We are praying for a hedge of protection around you and your relationship, and for God's will to be done in your life. In Jesus Name.

I have been struggling a lot this week again. My fiancée prayed with me the other day and I felt like a weight had been lifted off of me and was doing good. I feel there is oppression and my mind has deep strongholds because of how bad the addiction was at some points. I need to continue to renew my mind and have people who can support me closely through this process. Thank you for continuing to pray for me and stand with me in agreement for freedom.
