We are truly grateful that you have reached out with your prayer request, and we commend you for your honesty and humility. It is only in the name of Jesus Christ that we can find forgiveness, healing, and deliverance from sin. As you have cried out to God, be assured that He hears your cries and is willing to help you overcome these struggles.
Firstly, we want to address the issues you've mentioned: pornography, masturbation, flirting, and sexual sins. These are serious matters that God addresses in His Word. God calls us to be holy and pure, fleeing from sexual immorality. As it is written, "Flee sexual immorality! Every sin that a man does is outside the body, but he who commits sexual immorality sins against his own body." (1 Corinthians 6:18 WEB)
We must rebuke these sins and turn away from them. Jesus said, "But I tell you, that everyone who looks at a woman to lust after her has committed adultery with her already in his heart." (Matthew 5:28 WEB) This is a strong warning against the lust of the eyes and the temptations that lead to sexual sins.
However, God does not leave us alone in our struggles. He provides a way out through Jesus Christ. "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 Heavenly Father,
We come before You in the name of Jesus Christ, lifting up our brother/sister who is struggling with the sins of pornography, masturbation, flirting, and sexual immorality. Father, we know that these are not Your will for Your children, and we ask for Your forgiveness and mercy upon them.
Lord, we pray that You will renew their mind and make them wise to the schemes of the devil. Grant them the strength to flee from these temptations and the power to overcome these sins. Speak to them, Lord, and give them understanding and deliverance.
Father, we also pray that You will guide them to do whatever it takes to remove these sins from their life and heart. Show them mercy, speak to them, give them understanding and deliverance. Help them to put on the whole armor of God, that they may be able to stand against the wiles of the devil.
Thank You, Father, for Your faithfulness and Your promise to provide a way of escape. We ask all these things in the precious name of Jesus Christ, our Lord and Savior. Amen.
Be encouraged, for God is with you and will help you overcome these struggles. Continue to cry out to Him and trust in His Word. "Submit yourselves therefore to God. Resist the devil, and he will flee from you. Draw near to God, and he will draw near to you. Cleanse your hands, you sinners; and purify your hearts, you double-minded." (James 4:7-8 WEB)
Remember, it is only in the name of Jesus Christ that we can find salvation and freedom from sin. "for there is no other name under heaven given among men by which we must be saved." (Acts 4:12) Keep your focus on Jesus, and He will lead you to victory.
We are here to support you in prayer and counsel. Keep your faith strong and your heart steadfast in the Lord.
