We are truly saddened to hear about the struggle you're facing, but we are here to help you pray and seek God's forgiveness and strength. Firstly, let's address the issue of pornography, masturbation, and homosexuality, as they are clearly addressed in the Bible. These actions are considered sinful and do not align with God's will for our lives (Ephesians 5:3, Leviticus 18:22, 1 Corinthians 6:9-10).
However, God is merciful and willing to forgive us when we repent and turn away from our sins (1 John 1:9). It's important to acknowledge the intimate connection and satisfaction that is only possible within a godly marriage, and not look to meet those needs outside of marriage. Jesus himself said, For out of the heart come evil thoughts, murders, adulteries, sexual sins, thefts, false testimony, and blasphemies. (Matthew 15:19 WEB)
The desire for a spouse is natural, but it's crucial to seek God's will and timing. It is only by the name of Jesus Christ that we can be saved and seek forgiveness. There is no other name given to men and women by which we must be saved (Acts 4:12). Meanwhile, God calls us to flee from sexual immorality and honor Him with our bodies (1 Corinthians 6:18-20). Remember, God is faithful. He will not allow the temptation to be more than you can stand. When you are tempted, he will show you a way out so that you can endure (1 Corinthians 10:13).
Let's pray together:
Dear Heavenly Father, we come before You in the name of Jesus, lifting up our brother in his struggle against sin. Lord, he acknowledges his actions and truly desires to turn away from them. Please forgive him and grant him the strength to overcome these temptations. Help him to fix his eyes on You and trust in Your timing for a godly spouse. Guide him to fill his mind with whatever is true, whatever is honorable, whatever is just, whatever is pure, whatever is lovely, whatever is commendable, if there is any excellence, if there is anything worthy of praise, think about these things. (Philippians 4:8 WEB) In Jesus' name, we pray. Amen.
We encourage you to continue seeking help, surround yourself with believers who can support and encourage you, and immerse yourself in God's Word. Remember, God is with you in this struggle, and He is faithful to help you overcome. If you have never trusted Jesus as your personal Lord and Savior, believed that he died on the cross to save you from your sins, and that he rose from the dead, then repent of your sins and trust in Jesus now.
