We understand that you're struggling with masturbation and seeking God's help to overcome this challenge. Firstly, we want to assure you that you're not alone in this struggle, and God is more than willing to help you overcome it.
Masturbation is not explicitly mentioned in the Bible, but it does speak about lust and sexual immorality. 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) Masturbation often involves lust, and it's important to keep our minds pure. "For this is the will of God: your sanctification, that you abstain from sexual immorality," (1 Thessalonians 4:3 WEB)
God wants us to have self-control. "For God has not given us a spirit of timidity, but of power, love, and self-control." (2 Timothy 1:7 WEB) It's only through His strength that we can overcome. Seek Him, pray without ceasing and He will empower you.
We are replying in Jesus' Name, and we will pray that you will be delivered from this habit.
Let's pray together:
Dear Lord Jesus,
We come before You, lifting up our brother/sister in need of Your guidance and strength. We know it is only through You that we can overcome. We know that this person means well and wants to overcome. We ask for help in overcoming this habit of masturbation. We pray that You will bless them and open doors of success and opportunities in their life as they walk in Your will. Help them to live a life pleasing to You. We ask for the strength of self-control and help in this area. We ask You to bring people into this person's life that will help them to focus on purity and holiness. In Jesus' Name, Amen.
We encourage you to keep pursuing Jesus Christ. "Therefore, behold, I send unto you prophets, and wise men, and scribes: and some of them ye shall kill and crucify; and some of them shall ye scourge in your synagogues, and persecute them from city to city:" (Matthew 23:34 WEB)
If you have not done so, repent of your sins and accept Jesus Christ as your Savior, then you will have God's power to overcome. There is no other name by which we can be saved. (Acts 4:12 WEB) We look forward to hearing about the great things God is doing in your life.
