One of the most important things you can do
to find freedom from your porn addiction is to pray. There is power in
prayer. Prayer can move mountains.
Prayer is talking and
listening to God. Whenever you catch a lustful pornographic thought
crossing your mind put your mind on God instead and pray. Your porn
addiction can't withstand the power of prayer.
Tell God you need help with your porn
addiction. It doesn't matter how troubled, hopeless or lost you think
you are, God wants a relationship with you. God wants you free from
porn.
Prayer will bring you close to God. Prayer will teach you about
connection. Memorize scripture and your favorite prayers. Repeat them
over and over when you are tempted to give in to lust and porn.
One well know prayer in the recovery movement is, "The Serenity Prayer."
"God grant me the serenity to accept the things I cannot change, to
change the things I can and the wisdom to know the difference."
What you can change is the grip your pornography addiction has on you.
What you can change is your isolation. What you can do is commit to your
recovery. You can eliminate porn from your life today.
You can change how you use your gifts and talents. You can change what
you do with your time. You can change how you treat the people you love.
You can kick your porn addiction with prayer.
You can't change others or others opinions of you. You can't change the
weather, the neighbors or your partner. You can change the grip porn has
on you.
Porn addicts ruin their lives, relationships and finances. You can
change your relationships, finances and your life with the help of God
and prayer.
Commit to praying. When you make your life a prayer you will be guided
in new directions. You will be led to others who can help you.
Prayer will change you. Prayer will make you a better person. Prayer
will bring miracles!
