M.asturbation Has Eaten Deep Into My Life. I Want To Stop by donez(m): 5:39pm On Oct 13, 2013
I have been stuck in this evil shell for the part 8 years i have tried any possible way i can to stop it but all to no avail.sometimes i take it as a normal way of life.i have listened to several messages against it, i have read many books, i have been counselled, what haven't i done .i have even asked God to punish me if i try to do it again just to threaten myself from doing it. One suprising thing is that nothing really sparks off the urge in me most of the times it occurs spontaneously. Many a time i had made up my mind to stop this afterwards give me at most 2 weeks and i will start feeling heavy and the need to discharge, also something in me keeps telling me that if i can abstain from it for 6 months i will see positive changes in my life. To me, this sounds like passing a camel through the eye of a needle because i have not even gone a month without it for the past 8 years. Can i really stop it. Pls help

Unless you identify a real need to want to stop it, I'm afraid there's little or nothing u can do. Besides, masturbation isn't a sin as far as I can tell, it has no side effects and if u read medical and psychological books, they tend to confirm these facts.

Why manipulate OP's post and making changes by putting words in OP's post

OP wrote ". . . suprising thing is that nothing really sparks off the urge in me, most of the times it occurs spontaneously"

and you came up with "In the process of stimulating urself, u picture some n.ude girls in order to help boost d pleasure."

The fact is, if you want to stop it you will stop it. But you still love it and you can't control yourself. Four things i want to share with you:
1)Try to reduce your dosage slowly. If you go 3 times a week, reduce slowly to 2, then 1 time in 10 days, then 2 times a week, and keep reducing it.
2)Get a girl, if you are capable enough get married.
3)Try to be as busy as possible. Never be idle
4)Any time you feel the hunger coming up, tell yourself you own your body and not that little boy between your legs.

There's nothing wrong with masturbation. See it as God's gift and alternative to fornication.


or commit fornication and ask for forgiveness.. smiley

@donez

Complete abstinence of a habit for 21 - 30 days will be enough to stop or break it

so far you've only done 2 weeks i.e. managed to do 14 days

Set another date to stop the habit,

and after 21 days, return back to update us how you fared
Re: M.asturbation Has Eaten Deep Into My Life. I Want To Stop by Nobody: 7:45pm On Oct 13, 2013
Watch the kind of food you eat which makes you heavy and feel honey. Abstain frm them first then pray. Thats how i stopped mine.

Everybody saying stop hav not helped him.
How does he stop?
The best advice shud come from fellas who've been there too for that long or longer but came out.
Even Jesus had to experience life as a human to save humanity and in the process he "learnt obedience by the things he suffered".
Jesus knows what it is like to b severely tempted because He was tempted in all areas but he didnt giv in.

OP, stop listening to these religious ignoramuses jo. Másturbation is perfectly normal behaviour. Everybody does it from time to time including all those holier than thou pastors posting rubbish on this thread.

You have nothing to be ashamed of and doing it is not going to harm you in any way.

If you want to stop, it's really just a matter of self control. It's easier to do so if you have another séxual outlet like a wife or girlfriend. And most guys do it less as they get older so you'll probably grow out of it.

But like I said, it's perfectly normal. Stop worrying and enjoy your life.

Gal 5:16 says, “I say walk in the Spirit and you will not fulfill the lust of the flesh.

Walking by the Spirit entails Regular studying of the word of God, Praying at all times, constant fellowship with other Christians, being active in the things of God, and any other thing you know that will please God.

Brother, I can imagine what you are going through but I can assure you that coming out to ask for help is the first step you have taken to overcome this problem.

Here are some steps I believe that can help you out:

1. You need to accept that you can't stop it by your power but only through God.
2. You need to really start a programme that will involve regular study of God's word especially bible passages which condemn it.
3. You need to destroy anything that stimulates you that is still in your possession and avoid movies, musics, pictures, and environments that
contain obscenity.
4. You need to get an accountability partner i.e. someone you can be reporting your progress to. This should be someone you know is HIGHLY
UNDERSTANDING and can respect your privacy.
5. Visit www.settingcaptivesfree.com and take their 60-day programme. You are most likely going to be given an accountability partner there.
It is free of charge.
6. Don't give up even when you keep falling. God will surely help you out.
7. Endeavour to preach it to those who need the deliverance from it.

God bless you.

Get busy. Do you have a job or something you do frequently? When you get busy, you hardly have time to do all that. When the urge comes, take your mind off it and do something else. You can take a walk. Have control over it and be determined. My 2 cents.

I hope this word for today will help you.

Alwaystrue: Getting 'Unstuck'! (1)


Tuesday, 15 October 2013

'...He rewards those who earnestly seek Him.' Hebrews 11:6 NIV

Icy winters tend to bring multiple pile-ups with cars in snow-filled ditches waiting for tow trucks to rescue them. The drivers have different reactions.
Some surrender to feelings of being powerless,
Others get frustrated and deepen the rut they're in.
But the wise think rationally of steps they can take.

In life, getting stuck isn't always an option; but staying stuck is! Good news: no matter how long you've been stuck, the right attitude can get you moving again. So here are some attitude changers:

(1) Forgiveness. The guilt that follows failure can immobilise you long-term, but forgiveness liberates you - freeing up your energy and creativity. Forgiveness is two-dimensional: First, you must receive God's forgiveness for your failures. Things you've done: betrayal, angry words, dishonesty, broken promises etc. Things you haven't done: love unexpressed, responsibility avoided, a child, parent or spouse neglected, the truth withheld. Heartfelt confession always brings God's forgiveness! (1 John 1:9) Second, you must forgive those who've failed you - parents, siblings, children, bosses, spouses, friends, enemies etc. Severing the chains to your past restores your options for the future

(2) Faith. When you've been stuck for a long time, forward momentum can seem impossible. You lack direction, energy and confidence. What to do? Getting traction requires a willingness to act in spite of your feelings. God calls this 'faith' and He always responds to it! 'He rewards those who earnestly seek Him.' When you act like you believe, God will reward your faith - and the feeling of faith will follow your action!


SoulFood: Ex 25-27, John 3:22-36, Ps 89:15-37, Pr 26:20-22


Osmiley This is the Word for Today

You have circled this mountain long enough...now go North Deut 2:3. You need more time for studying the word and knitting yourself with the sword of the Spirit for this is how to resist the devil.
Resist Him like Jesus did....'It is written'.

I have said a prayer for you. You have God's grace....use it! GET UNSTUCK.

Masturbation is a serious & spiritual problem, it just like been addicted to hard drugs. I'll advice you to watch Emmanuel tv (TB Joshua Ministries) for various testimonies on the related issue. You will know what to do thereafter. You can't help Yourself no matter how hard you try.
