Prayer For Those Of Us Who Struggle With Porn Addiction
Lord, I lift all of us, Your believers who struggle with porn, up to You. Thank You, Lord, for granting us the grace to become honest about the addictions we’re dealing with. Lord, I pray You guide us all to see You as the God of Grace, not the God of Judgment. Lord, You say you sympathize with our weaknesses. You understand where we are at – even more than we do.
Lord, You didn't just die for us, but You love us, You like us and You are on our side. Please lead us to get his eyes off his sin, and to look at You. While You don't want us to sin, You definitely don't want us to only see ourselves as sinners! By Your grace, we aren't sinners in You, we're saints who struggle with sin (Col 1:21-23). Please lead us out of our shame, and into a healthy view of ourselves, You, and other people.
Lord, You used my sexual addiction to show me how to depend on You, even for just living every day. You showed me my sinful actions were a result of my sinful heart attitudes (my resentments, fears, shames, unresolved pain). You showed me how I could bring them all to You, and to a person I trust (James 5:16). You led me to Christ centered recovery (Celebrate Recovery). You've given me victory over turning to prostitutes, You're giving me more and more victory over my shame, and I know You'll give me victory over pornography.
I pray You lead us all to the answers You have for us. Thanks that we aren't abandonable to You. We're Your little boys! You love us more than we can understand, even so much that while You want to lead us out of his sinful habits, You don't see us as "sinner" or "masturbator" or “porn addict” - You see us as Your adorable little sons (Romans 8).
Lord, if people reading this are like me, they are struggling with accepting that we're not supposed to provide our own solutions to our sin. Honestly, Lord, how could I figure out how to overcome my sin, when I need Your conviction to realize what I’m doing is a sin to begin with? We're supposed to surrender to You so You can show us how not to sin (Rom 8:13). Please lead us to realize we aren’t supposed to have our own answers, but we’re supposed to lean on You for them.
Wow, Lord, I've gone on a bit, haven't I? Thanks for loving each of us as we are. Thanks for loving us so much You want to lead us into victory. I ask that, in Your grace, You lead each of us to do his 2%, so You can do Your 98%.
Lord, if I left anything out of my prayer, I ask you to address all the things I didn't know how to pray for.
Amen
Hang in there gentlemen! God loves You, and I think you are cool. Not many men get to the place where they are as honest as you have been. God will honor that. He's got a direction He wants You to head in to secure His victory over your sin in your life. We're rooting for you!
