I
remember one day that I fasted and prayed that I should be delivered from
masturbation, that same day, I gave in to the flesh and devil and still
committed the sin again. I want to share with you how God delivered me and if
you follow the same way wholeheartedly you will be delivered from masturbation,
any other sexual sin and destructive habits. You can share this write-up with
someone who needs it or as a guide to counsel someone if you are not addicted
in any way to sexual sin.
Take
time to prayerfully read what I am about to share with you. I am praying for
you and I know you have the victory already. Sit down with this message alongside with your Bible and make
sure you read every Bible passage. YOUR DELIVERANCE WILL COME BY FAITH IN THE
FINISHED WORK OF CHRIST AND NOT BY DETERMINATION.
- Know that God is not happy with
Masturbation. It is a secret sin known only to you, devil and God.
“For there is nothing hid, which shall not be
manifested; neither was anything kept secret, but that it should come abroad.”-
Mark 4:22.
It is a sin and it is the manifestation of lust in your
heart. “Ye have heard that it was said
by them of old time, Thou shalt not commit adultery .But I say unto you, That
whosoever looketh on a woman to lust after her hath committed adultery with her
already in his heart.”- Matt 5:22-28.
- Believe that it is possible to
be delivered no matter how many years you have been in bondage to the sin
of masturbation. Matthew 19:26, Mark 9:23,Mark 10:27,Job 42:2,Luke
18:27.What you don’t believe you can never become.
- For you to be delivered you must
be born-again.
There is need for you to be genuinely born-again. I
know from experience that it is possible to be born-again and still be addicted
to masturbation and other sins but for your deliverance to be possible you must
be saved. When you become saved, you don’t want to commit the sin again and
each time you do it you are unhappy and you have guilt in your heart. You must
be unhappy with your sinful state as a child of God for you to be delivered.
When you become born- again all that you need to live a holy and pure life is
already in you. When you do sinful things it is not the real you that is
committing the sin. You must live out the real you in Christ by faith. 2
Corinthians 5:17, John 1:12, Ephesians 2:1-8.
- At the point of Salvation or now
you must confess the sin of masturbation in particular to God, ask for His
mercy and ask him to deliver you. The confession must be from your heart
to God your father who is able to save you.
“He that covereth his sins shall not prosper: but
whoso confesseth and forsaketh them shall have mercy.”- Prov 28:13
“He who keeps his sins secret will not do well; but
one who is open about them, and gives them up, will get mercy. “-Prov
28:13(BBE).
- Abide in God: “Thy words have I hid in mine heart, that I might not sin against thee.”- Psalm
119:11
Psalm 37:31, John 15: 3, 5, John 17:17. The word of
God has power to sanctify your heart and make you holy. After you have been
saved you must as a matter of necessity abide in God. This means you take your
time of fellowship and personal communion with God more important than any
church service or any work you are doing for God in the church. You must walk
with God consistently before working for God. It is possible for you to be
known in the Church or your school fellowship for a lot of things yet living
with secret sins. As a matter of importance set a specific time to worship God,
read your bible and pray every morning preferably before 5.30am. Spend minimum
of 30 minutes. Get a quiet time book where you record the daily lessons, your
prayer points, memory verses and any instruction God may give to you. If you
don’t spend time with God you can’t live above sin. Sin will keep you away from
the Bible but the Bible will keep you away from sins. You can set apart a
particular day every week to fast and wait on God. Make fasting part of your
life.
- THIS IS VERY IMPORTANT. After
you become born-again and you confess all your sins and the sins of
masturbation in particular, you now have to overcome the sin by FAITH IN
CHRIST. It will take your faith to overcome. What do I mean? Seeing
yourself the way the Bible sees you, confessing the word of God instead of
giving in to depression, you must believe the Bible. According to Romans
6:1-14, when you become born-again and you are baptized in water (WATER
BAPTISM IS VERY IMPORTANT, GO AND DO IT IF YOU HAVE NOT DONE IT). You are
dead with Christ, dead to sin, alive unto Christ and alive unto
resurrection. As a result of your salvation and water baptism, sin no
longer has dominion over you because you are no longer living under law
but under grace. THIS IS HOW I WAS DELIVERED. WHEN I COMMITTED THE SIN UNWILLINGLY,
INSTEAD OF BURYING MY HEAD IN GUILT, I ASKED FOR GOD’S FORGIVENESS AND I
STARTED CONFESSING THE WORD OF GOD AS CONTAINED IN ROMANS CHAPTER 6. I
TOLD THE DEVIL; THIS IS NOT WHO I AM, I AM GOD’S RIGTEOUSNESS IN CHRIST
JESUS, SIN SHALL NOT HAVE DOMINION OVER ME FOR I AM NOT UNDER LAW BUT
UNDER GRACE. MASTURBATION I OVER COME YOU IN JESUS NAME. I AM DEAD TO SIN
AND ALIVE UNTO RIGHTEOUSNESS. I CAN DO ALL THINGS THROUGH CHRIST THAT
STRENGTHENS ME. I KEPT CONFESSING THE WORD INSTEAD OF FEELING GUILTY. ANYTIME
I WAS TEMPTED TO DO IT. I REBUKEDTHE DEVIL AND QUOTED THE WORD. I TELL MY
FLESH AND THE DEVIL; I AM DEAD TO SIN, I AM DEAD TO MASTURBATON, I DIED
WITH CHRIST AND I RESURRECTED WITH HIM UNTO RIGTHEOUSNESS. I CAN DO ALL
THINGS THROUGH CHRIST THAT STRENGHTENS ME. IF YOU FALL INTO THE SIN AGAIN
ASK FOR MERCY AND KEEP CONFESSING THE WORD BY FAITH. IF YOU DO THIS
FAITHFULLY YOU WILL SEE THE REALITY OF GOD’S WORD IN YOUR LIFE. Read
Romans chapters 5, 6 &7 using different versions prayerfully and
confess who you really are in Christ every day. Romans 6 gave me the
victory. It is not by struggle, it is not by determination, it is not by
principle, and it is not by resolution. IT IS BY FAITH IN CHRIST AND WHAT
HE HAD ALREADY DONE FOR YOU ON THE CROSS. JUST BELIEVE IT, CONFESS IT EVEN
IF WHAT YOU ARE EXPERIENCING AT FIRST IS CONTRARY VERY SOON YOU WILL BEGIN
TO EXPERIENCE YOUR TRUE IDENTITY IN CHRIST.( Romans 8:2, Gal 5:18,Rom
12:1-2, Col 3:5,James 4:1, 1Peter 2:24,1 Peter 4:2, Psalm 119:133, 2
Timothy 2:11).
- CONFIDE IN YOUR SPIRITUAL
LEADER: THE POWER OF SECRET SIN IS DESTROYED WHEN IT IS CONFESSEDTO A
TRUSTED PERSON OR IN THE PUBLIC. This is another thing that helped me to
overcome masturbation. I opened up to my spiritual father. He was my
pastor then but more than a pastor. He is a father. Look for somebody that
you see regularly who is a father and that you can confide in. The person
should be spiritually matured and you should have great respect for that
person. The person might not necessary be your pastor. He could be a
leader in your church or another church. He might be your colleague but
more spiritual than you are. James
5:16, John 9:31, Proverbs 15:29. The person will be able to pray for you
and ask you from time to time how you are doing.
- WATCH WHAT YOU READ, WATCH, HEAR
AND WHERE YOU GO: Destroy the photos of all your past girlfriends, burn
CDs that makes you desire sex, stop watching movies that promotes
immorality, stop listening to music that makes you feel excited. These are
what the bible means when the scriptures says that you should forsake your
sins. Break relationship with all sin partners. Watch careful what enters
your ear, what you watch with your eyes (internet inclusive, books you
read inclusive) and where you go. WHEN YOU ARE ALONE IN YOUR ROOM LEAVE
THE DOORS WIDE OPEN, WHEN YOU GO TO THE BATHROOM, DON’T LOCK THE DOOR BUT
CLOSE IT. WHEN YOU ARE AT HOME ALONE KEEP YOURSELF BUSY WITH THE WORD OF
GOD, PRAYERS OR WATCHING CHRISTIAN MOVIES. WHEN YOU GO TO THE INTERNET USE
THE COMPUTER WHERE EVERYONE THAT ENTERS CAN SEE WHAT YOU ARE DOING.RENEW
YOUR MIND WITH THE WORD OF GOD. PROVERS 4:20-27.
- CONTINUE TO SERVE GOD: Don’t
allow the devil to stop you from serving God. Continue to put your
personal relationship with God as first priority, and then serve God in
your church. Seek the baptism of the Holy Spirit with the evidence of
speaking in tongues. Speak in tongues everyday for some minutes 15 min,
30min, 1hour or more. As you serve God with commitment He will continue to
sanctify you and make you acceptable unto Him. John 15:5-6,Luke 13:7-9
- NEVER GIVE UP ON GOD, NEVER GIVE
UP ON YOURSELF, AND KEEP THANKING GOD FOR YOUR DELIVERANCE, PRACTICE ALL
THAT I SHARE WITH YOU. SET YOUR EYES ON HEAVEN AND THE REWARD OF HEAVEN ON
DAILY BASIS. YOU ARE DELIVERED IN JESUS NAME. I PROCLAIM YOUR DELIVERANCE
IN JESUS NAME. I COMMAND THE DEVIL TO LOOSE HIS GRIP OVER YOUR LIFE AND
DESTINY. ENTER INTO YOUR INHERITANCE OF FREEDOM, JOY, PEACE AND PROGRESS
IN GOD. COLOSIANS 3: 1-25
THE DEVIL IS
ALWAYS HUNTING A PRECIOUS SOUL. YOU WILL MAKE IT. YOU ARE SO PRECIOUS TO GOD HE
CANNOT AFFORD TO LOSE YOU TO THE DEVIL. HAVE FAITH IN GOD.
