[Must Read] 6 Strategies for Fighting Lust

6 Proven Strategies for Fighting Lust.

These are six verified systems for battling LUST. I have in mind men and women. For men it's self-evident. The requirement for fighting against the siege of visual impulse to focus on sexual pictures is dire. For ladies it is more subtle, yet similarly as incredible in the event that we widen the extent of impulse to sustenance or figure or social dreams. When I say "Lust" I mean the domain of thought, creative energy, and want that prompts sexual wrongdoing. So here is one arrangement of systems in the war against wrong wants. I placed it as an acronym, A N T H E M. 

A – Avoid as much as is possible and reasonable the sights and situations that arouse unfitting desire.

I say "conceivable and sensible" on the grounds that some introduction to allurement is inescapable. Furthermore, I say "unfitting want" in light of the fact that not all wants for sex, nourishment, and family are terrible. We know when they are unfitting and unhelpful and on their approach to getting to be subjugating. We know our shortcomings and what triggers them. "Staying away from" is a scriptural technique. "Flee also youthful lusts: but follow righteousness, faith, charity, peace, with them that call on the Lord out of a pure heart." (2 Timothy 2:22). "But put ye on the Lord Jesus Christ, and make not provision for the flesh, to fulfil the lusts thereof." (Romans 13:14). 

N – Say “No” to every lustful thought within five seconds.

Also, say it with the expert of Jesus Christ. "For the sake of Jesus, NO!" You don't have substantially more than five seconds. Give it more unopposed time than that, and it will hold up itself with so much power as to be relatively steady. Let's assume it so anyone can hear in the event that you set out. Be intense and warlike. As John Owen stated, "Be murdering sin or it will execute you." Strike quick and strike hard. "Submit yourselves therefore to God. Resist the devil, and he will flee from you." (James 4:7). 

T – Turn the mind forcefully toward Christ as a superior satisfaction.

Saying "no" won't do the trick. You should move from barrier to offense. Battle fire with flame. Assault the guarantees of transgression with the guarantees of Christ. The Bible calls lusts “deceitful desires” (Ephesians 4:22). They lie. They promise more than they can deliver. The Bible calls them “passions of your former ignorance” (1 Peter 1:14). Just tricks yield. "He goeth after her straightway, as an ox goeth to the slaughter, or as a fool to the correction of the stocks;" (Proverbs 7:22). Double dealing is crushed by truth. Obliviousness is crushed by learning. It must be sublime truth and excellent information. This is the reason I composed "Flee from this things". We must stock our minds with the superior promises and pleasures of Jesus. Then we must turn to them immediately after saying, “NO!”

H – Hold the promise and the pleasure of Christ firmly in your mind until it pushes the other images out.

Fix your eyes on Jesus (see Hebrews 12:2). Here is the place many come up short. They give in too early. They say, "I attempted to drive it out, and it didn't work." I ask, "To what extent did you attempt? How hard did you apply your psyche?" The brain is a muscle. You can flex it with intensity. Take the kingdom savagely (Matthew 11:12). Be merciless. Hold the guarantee of Christ before your eyes. Hold it. Hold it! Try not to release it! Continue holding it! To what extent? For whatever length of time that it takes. Battle! For the wellbeing of Christ, battle till you win! In the event that an electric carport entryway were going to squash your kid, you would hold it up energetically and holler for help, and hold it and hold it and hold it and hold it. 

E – Enjoy a superior satisfaction.

Develop the capacities with regards to delight in Christ. One reason desire reigns in such a large number of is that Christ has so little interest. We default to double dealing since we have little savor the experience of Christ. Try not to state, "That is simply not me." What steps have you taken to arouse love for Jesus? Have you battled for bliss? Try not to be fatalistic. You were made to treasure Christ with everything that is in you — more than you cherish sex or sugar. In the event that you have little taste for Jesus, contending joys will triumph. Beg God for the fulfillment you don't have: "Fulfill us toward the beginning of the day with your immovable love, that we may cheer and be happy all our days" (Psalm 90:14). At that point look, look, and take a gander at the most brilliant Person in the universe until the point when you see him the manner in which he is. 

M – Move into a useful activity away from idleness and other vulnerable behaviors.

Desire develops quick in the garden of recreation. Locate a decent work to do, and do it energetically. "Try not to be sluggish in enthusiasm, be intense in soul, serve the Lord" (Romans 12:11). "Be ardent, steadfast, continually possessing large amounts of crafted by the Lord" (1 Corinthians 15:58). Possess large amounts of work. Get up and accomplish something. Scope a room. Mallet a nail. Compose a letter. Fix a spigot. What's more, do it for the good of Jesus. You were made to oversee and make. Christ kicked the bucket to make you "ardent for benevolent acts" (Titus 2:14). Dislodge misleading desires with an enthusiasm for good deeds.
