Questions
1. Does this describe how you are feeling today
about your struggle with Web porn use?
2. What are the results of sin in a person's life
as described by this verse?
Practical help
As with the practice of any sin, a Christian
struggling with a porn habit will experience sadness, discouragement,
feelings of helplessness and hopelessness, and even unhealthy physical
symptoms. Smut is a strength robber!
Here, have a dose of good
news. There is forgiveness and freedom and a future for those who know
Jesus as their Savior. Forgiveness: In Christ, your sins are all
covered by His shed blood. (Ephesians 1:7) Freedom: Jesus has now
broken the power of sin and you are free to walk with Him in
righteousness. (Romans 6:11-13) Future: He has begun to change you
already, and He will finish what He has started. (Philippians
1:6)
There is hope for the man or women struggling with Web
porn. Turn your attention upon Jesus today. It will make all the
difference for you.
Psalm 31:24 —
Be strong, and let your
heart take courage, All you who hope in the
Lord.
