Problems With Po*******hy? READ...
My Beloved Children,
I want to reach out to help those of you, who struggle with po*******hy. In the previous edition I shared a word from the heart of the Father, about overcoming s*xual struggles. I this edition I want to go a bit more in depth about breaking free from po*******hy.
I turned my back on po*******hy when I gave my life to Jesus Christ (25 years ago) and the Lord helped me stay free, all these years.
I believe He gave me some keys, that helped me stay free, which I want to share with you.
It's a dragon
The major key is to know that when you look at po*******hy you are not actually looking at humans. You are looking at demons in humans. This is such a huge key. The people you look at, are just puppets in the claws of spirits that use them to destroy others.
It's more than just a human activity. The real power behind po*******hy is not the lust of your flesh, it's a spirit, that works worldwide to destroy men and woman, who are dearly loved by God.
Once the Lord told me that po*******hy is a spiritual DRAGON. Later I saw a christian book about po*******hy and the title was 'Slaying the dragon of s*xual addiction'. I then had the confirmation that I had indeed the voice of the Lord about this accurately. It is a spirit.
The Bible says we are not waging war against flesh and blood but against principalities in the heavenly realms.
'Be strong in the Lord and in the power of His might. Put on the whole armor of God, that you may be able to stand against the wiles of the devil.
For we do not wrestle against flesh and blood, but against principalities, against powers, against the rulers of the darkness of this age, against spiritual hosts of wickedness in the heavenly places.
Therefore take up the whole armor of God, that you may be able to withstand in the evil day, and having done all, to stand.' (Ephesians 6:10-13)
This is a major key to overcoming po*******hy: know that you are engaging with DEMONS, not just people. Having virtual s*x with a demonic spirit suddenly seems a whole less attractive, doesn't it?
It destroys you!
The second key to overcoming this demonic trap, is knowing it brings DESTRUCTION. It destroys your mind and your heart. You lose true love and become a slave of lust. Your mind is defiled and the ability to love purely is damaged. It also destroys marriages, relationships, happiness, peace, purity, God's call for your life, and so much more.
Jesus said satan is a liar and murderer, who comes to steal and destroy. Recognize this strategy behind po*******hy: it destroys you.
So if you allow this in your life, you open the door for darkness that will kill, steal and destroy your life. Don't do it. It's absolutely not worth it.
It can wreck your calling
A third key to overcome this pitfall, is knowing po*******hy can hinder God's amazing call over your life. It may stay hidden for a long time, but in the end it will blow up your life and ministry and it will damage or even completely wreck God's dream over your life.
Hidden sin is always exposed, sooner or later. Just think of the many famous men of God who have fallen, the past years.
Sin never helps you, it always hurts you. Always. Stop it and overcome this dragon.
Become a warrior
A fourth key is: make a decision to become a modern day dragon slayer. The may sound a bit strange, but what we need these days is true knights of the Lord. Soldiers of Christ. Not with words, but in actions.
Real men and woman, who fight the monsters in the darkness, when nobody is looking.
It's easy to speak the right words on a platform. It's a whole different thing to be like David in the Bible, who fought the lions and bears, with nobody to applaud! Only God saw him and helped him, in the lonely wilderness.
Make a decision to be a true warrior. Be prepared to suffer and to persevere. Recognize attacks and tackle them.
One monday, I came out of a series of amazing meetings where the Lord had touched people with His love and power. How glorious! The next day I was alone in my office, on the top floor of our home, and I felt tired, after the days of ministry. I was weak and vulnerable.
Suddenly I felt a thought creeping into my head: "Go on the internet and look for some s*xy pictures!" I was shocked, because I never did this. It felt as if a spiritual lioness leaped upon me, trying to overpower me.
How did I overcome it? I RECOGNIZED IT FOR WHAT IT WAS: AN ATTACK.
When you know you are in a war, that helps you to recognize and overcome! You know: this is not me, it is the enemy who tries to let me fall, after the great victory I have experienced.
So be a warrior, know there is a war, and fight like a real soldier, who is willing to take a beating, but he won't back down!
Get on your feet!
The fifth key is also crucial: when you fall, stand up again. Satan wants to throw you down in the dirt, only to jump on top of you and accuse you, so you would stay down.
Don't stay in the dirt. Stand up again, shake it off and move forward.
You must know that GOD IS ON YOUR SIDE! He sees the attacks, and He is here with you, to help you overcome! Stand up, repent, shake it off, cleanse yourself with the blood of Jesus Christ, put your armor on again and move forward.
Falling down is not the defeat - staying down is!
Cast the spirits out
The sixth key is: if you believe there may be a spirit connected to your struggle with s*xual sin, then seek prayer for deliverance with other christians who are filled with the Holy Spirit. This may be helpful for some, who can't seem to break free.
You can also set yourself free, by loudly proclaiming, with all your heart:
"I have been bought by Jesus Christ with His own blood. I belong to Him and Him alone! My body is a dwelling place for the Holy Spirit and I am holy and pure. Jesus Christ is my Lord and my King. He reigns over me, my body, my life, my family. Every knee MUST bow to Jesus Christ. He is the Lord of lords and King of kings. I have been cleansed and forgiven by HIS BLOOD. I command every demon to leave me now, in the name of Jesus Christ! Satan, leave me, and every spirit that is not from the Lord Jesus Christ, leave me and my life and my family."
Keep proclaiming His authority over your life and body. I often pray this, for very area of my life. I encourage you to copy this prayer and pray it regularly.
Pray in an aggressive way: rebuke the enemy and cast him out. This is a key to breakthrough. Speak to the enemy and command him to leave you, in the glorious and victorious name of the Lord Jesus Christ, who died for you at the cross and who rose from the dead, now reigning as the highest name above all names, forever and ever. He is the Lord of all, and every knee MUST bow down to Him.
So cast out the demons in His mighty and holy name and receive the complete and total CLEANSING of your body, soul and spirit.
Repent, receive forgiveness and cast out.
S*x is a gift
The last key: please now that God created you as a s*xual being. S*x is a gift, not a curse. If you stay pure and holy, then He can bless you with godly intimacy, as He intended. Then it is a source of joy and not a source of suffering and shame.
Advice for women
If you are married, then please do not refuse the s*xual in*******se with your husband. Many men suffer because their partner doesn't understand their God-given desire for s*x.
It can destroy marriages, drive men to despair so they seek satisfaction elsewhere, and it brings a lot of emotional pain.
Men don't only need s*x for the release of their hormones, but also to know their wives really LOVE them. That's why the apostle Paul said:
'The husband must fulfill his duty to his wife, and likewise also the wife to her husband.
The wife does not have authority over her own body but yields it to her husband. In the same way, the husband does not have authority over his own body but yields it to his wife.
Stop depriving one another, except by agreement for a time, so that you may devote yourselves to prayer, and come together again so that Satan will not tempt you because of your lack of self-control.' (1 Corinthians 7:3-5)
This is very important. If you struggle with this, seek counseling please. It's not worth destroying your marriage.
Respect your partner, love him, serve one another also with your body. It is an act of love, when you allow your partner to come to you, even if you struggle with it, for whatever reason.
This is love in action. Christ gave up Himself for our salvation, as an example.
Don't manipulate
I know some women manipulate their husbands with s*x, with is a serious sin. Please don't do this - ever! Don't force your husband to do what you want him to do, by allowing or refusing s*xual in*******se. That is so hurtful and wrong.
Serve him, honor him and love him.
For many women, whose husband is not serving the Lord, it can be a key to major breakthrough, if you start truly LOVING and serving him. This is what Jesus showed us: love and sacrifice is the key to overcoming evil.
Show respect, stop fighting, but love, serve, bless, honor, etc.
That will touch his heart with the heart of God. And it will set you free from a demon of rebellion and manipulation.
God is with you
Know the Father is ON YOUR SIDE. You are not fighting God, okay? He is fighting WITH you and He gives you amazing grace, to overcome sin.
Know His grace, His love, His mercy, His compassion, His long-suffering, His patience, His heart FOR YOU and this will help you break free from the suffocating grip of this snake.
You are destined for victory. Christ payed for you with HIS OWN BLOOD.
May His light shine very bright in your life. Let's be pure, as He is pure. He is light and in Him there is NO darkness at all. He called you into His light, now WALK in His light.
