We understand your struggle and commend you for your desire to overcome sin and live a life devoted to Jesus. It is only through His name that we can be saved and set free from the bondage of sin. As it is written, "in whom we have redemption, the forgiveness of sins" Colossians 1:14 WEB.
Firstly, it is important to acknowledge that sin is sin. Pornography, lust, masturbation are all aspects of sexual immorality, and homosexuality is also specifically addressed in the Bible as sinful. "Or don't you know that the unrighteous will not inherit the Kingdom of God? Don't be deceived. Neither the sexually immoral, nor idolaters, nor adulterers, nor male prostitutes, nor homosexuals, nor thieves, nor covetous, nor drunkards, nor slanderers, nor extortioners, will inherit the Kingdom of God." 1 Corinthians 6:9-10 WEB.
However, the good news is that God provides a way out. Through Jesus Christ, we can be forgiven and freed from sin's grasp. "No temptation has taken you except what is common to man. God is faithful, who will not allow you to be tempted above what you are able, but will with the temptation also make the way of escape, that you may be able to endure it." 1 Corinthians 10:13 WEB.
Let us pray for you:
Dear Jesus,
We lift up Dexter2020 to You, asking for Your forgiveness and mercy upon their life. They have acknowledged their sins and expressed a deep desire to turn away from them and live for You. Lord, grant them the strength to overcome these struggles. Give them a new heart and a new spirit, that they may walk in Your ways and seek Your kingdom above all else.
In accordance with Your Word, we declare that Dexter2020 is an overcomer, freed from the bondage of sin and living in the abundant life that You promise. "Whoever is born of God does not commit sin, because his seed remains in him; and he cannot sin, because he is born of God." 1 John 3:9 WEB.
Father, send Dexter2020 guidance, encouragement, and accountability in their walk with You. Surround them with fellow believers who will support and uplift them in their journey. Help them, Lord, to see all things through the lens of Your Word and Your Spirit.
We ask this all in Jesus' mighty name, Amen.
Keep fighting the good fight of faith, Dexter2020. Remember, it is through believing in the name of Jesus Christ that we are saved. "because 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 resulting in righteousness; and with the mouth one confesses resulting in salvation." Romans 10:9-10 WEB.
Stand firm in the Word of God. "How can a young man keep his way pure? By living according to your word. I have sought you with all my heart. Don't let me wander from your commands. I have hidden your word in my heart, that I might not sin against you." Psalm 119:9-11 WEB.
Whenever you are tempted, call upon the name of Jesus. He is faithful and just to forgive us our sins and to cleanse us from all unrighteousness. 1 John 1:9 WEB.
We are here with you in prayer and support as you continue to seek Jesus with all your heart. Do not be hesitant to make any sin known even if it is repeatedly the same thing from a legitimate heart of repentance. Make sure to ask for forgiveness in Jesus Name as this is the only way to forgiveness.
