RE: can lust be overcomed

Father...it is your will that we develop self contol and your word gives us the power to do so. Thank you for Steve777 that seeks prayer to support his desire to live in your ways. Help him to know that the answer to his question is a resounding yes. You have given us desire so that we can be loving to wives and husbands and to bring us children and joy. But like anything that is good taken to excess it can be problematic in our lives. Father..help this man to focus on you and your word...give him supernatural power to develop self control...let him know your peace. Your word teaches...I can do all things through Christ that strengthens me. Let Steve777 seek the guidance of Christ daily as he continues on his journey to develop self control. In Jesus name...Amen!

RE: can lust be overcomed

Remember that healing takes place in our hearts, that
GOD IS LOVE.
When one tries to FIX the mind or FIX the emotions often there is failure.
It is our hearts, that we love, so strengthen your heart, move, it is Act Ion (action), by our actions, love, "at all times."
as to the "m" word, I have not seen scripture that says this is sin, there is perversion, that is sin, fornication, is sin, lust, is sin.
Perversion would be doing something that is contrary to the natural laws, that would be in offense to GOD, hurting a child, hurting a spouse, parents, others, the perverting of.
Healing of heart, through THE FIRE, is denying that which is also displeasing to GOD. Make sure to study the scripture for the specifics. It is acting on, that which is on our minds, or in our emotions, that would be offensive to GOD. Stay in your heart, move about ACT (ION/ ACTION)), that it be pleasing to HIM.
I believe that our walk as CHRISTIANS there are tests.
We can be CHRISTIAN & then at times, there is a Lightbulb moment
that lifts us up into HIS ARMS FURTHER.

RE: can lust be overcomed

remember not to add to or take away from The Word.
It is fine to have belief that The Lord is placing upon your heart, & if it is that you are overtaken by temptations, when work toward not abiding yourself, but where there are not specifics in scripture & you beat yourself up, to make them so, then perhaps work on that.
Even a priest in the privacy of a confessional will speak the truth before GOD, in other words, go to The Father in Heaven, if you are concerned. The bible specifies sin, lust, greed, perversion, fornication, murder, there are more, but go to The Word.
If The Lord Shows you in your heart that you need to modify something then perhaps it is so, but always go to HIM.
The Word is Placed Upon our hearts, that we work out our salvation,
"with fear & trembling (that we do not loose salvation).
As to details of a sin that is not specified in The Word, or that The Lord Shows you, work it out with HIM.
God Bless you!

RE: can lust be overcomed

Mother Threasa said that God does not give us more than we can handle. I just wish he didn't trust me so much. The spirit of self control is a fruit/gift of the Holy Spirit. Addiction is a daily victory that you can and will have with God's help. Who can do anything alone. Do not give up. When the urge comes than remember that this feeling will pass as it is your hormones and you do not need to give in to them. It will not be an easy task but you can do it. I can do all things through Jesus christ who strengthens me. I am more than a conquerer by Christ Jesus. God is for us. Find scripture that builds you up and write in on the tablet of your heart until it takes root. It worked for me. I even prayed that I would not have sexual dreams because I did have them. I kept praying until they went away and when they came back I prayed again. I even repented of my sexual dreams and now they rarely occur. When or if they do I will pray and repent again.
