THE PURPOSE OF TEMPTATION IS TO DISTRACT YOU FROM YOUR PURPOSE. #repost @sisterblair7994 Do not lust in your heart after her beauty or let her captivate you with her eyes... Can a man scoop fire into his lap without his clothes being burned? Can a man walk on hot coals without his feet being scorched?- Prov.6:25,27-28 #lust Love and lust. Too many people mix them together. And too many people get hurt for doing so. #lusting #sexualtemptation No man is free who is not master of himself. #temptation #seekingpleasure Satan continues his efforts to make sin less offensive, heaven less appealing, hell less horrific, and the gospel less urgent. Don’t be ignorant of Satan’s devices. The Word of God leaves no doubt about the existence or nature of hell. With clarity and authority, God has told us everything we need to know about hell, and how to avoid it through the merits of Christ. #lustquotes Guard your thoughts, and there will be little fear about your actions. #lustyquotes The desire to love is to give. The desire of lust is to get. #coveting Desire of having is the sin of covetousness. #covetousness If you do what is right, will you not be accepted? But if you do not do what is right, sin is crouching at your door; it desires to have you, but you must rule over it.- Gen.4:7 #desire Sin gratifies Satan. When lust or anger burn in the soul, Satan warms himself at this fire. #desiring God didn't create you to become one-flesh with several different people. He made one man. One woman. To become one flesh. #sin The LORD God said, "It is not good for the man to be alone. I will make a helper suitable for him.”- Gen.2:18 #sinning Flee from sexual immorality. All other sins a person commits are outside the body, but whoever sins sexually, sins against their own body. Do you not know that your bodies are temples of the Holy Spirit, who is in you, whom you have received from God? You are not your own; you were bought at a price. Therefore honor God with your bodies.- 1Cor.6:18-20 #ruleoversin But the man who commits adultery is an utter fool, for he destroys himself. He will be wounded and disgraced. His shame will never be erased.- Prov.6:32-33 (at Mount Juliet, Tennessee) https://www.instagram.com/p/Byn2sJUl242/?igshid=1bagtuaysj7gh

How can I control my hormonal urges?

Even if we understand that sex is meant for marriage, that doesn't automatically stop our hormones or keep sexual desires in check. Be prepared for those temptations by growing in your relationship with God through prayer and reading His Word; looking for God's escape routes—and running for them (1 Corinthians 10:13); taking control of your thoughts (2 Corinthians 10:5) and choosing not to dwell on sexual fantasies (Matthew 5:28; Philippians 4:8); and spending time doing things that express your true self in a way that honors God (1 Corinthians 10:31).
