I'm not sure where to post this since there is no section here for Praises! Anyways I will post it here for those who are coming here with a prayer request.Your answer may be right here in this post & I believe this will encourage & strengthen you:
Hi all,
I am happy in the Lord to share this praise report.I am sure someone here must be praying,so all glory to God.After I posted my prayer request for deliverance from chat rooms & porn during the end of May.By the sheer mercies & grace of God,I made a decision not to go back into the chat rooms or porn rooms.Everyday during the month of June God kept giving me the grace. Honestly I don't now how this happened.Nothing short of a miracle.I kept praying each day that i should not fall.Although it was a pretty busy month & there were other reasons such as health issues & being busy which helped me stay off these evils I know it is nothing but the grace of God.The first few days were tough (after almost 10 years of these addictions) but then everyday I would look at the calendar & keep praising God.
However here is one thing that happened & I share this so that we will never rely on our own abilities or become over confident in ourselves.I fell back on the last day of June ! Although the Lord may not even remember it as he forgets our sins when we ask Him to forgive.Even though I fell that day I was still so excited that God gave me a clear warning about it in a dream.On the 30th morning I had a dream that I was walking on a street ,crossing several houses .And one particular house was very empty & dark inside although it was painted clean outside.And then I began to walk on finding something strange in that house.At the close of the dream I found myself walking back on the same street & approaching the same house & then I woke up.My first thought was about that stage house that stood out in the dream.Immediately I felt God reminding me of this passage in Luke 11: 24When an unclean spirit comes out of a man, it passes through arid places seeking rest and does not find it. Then it says, ‘I will return to the house I left.’ 25On its return, it finds the house swept clean and put in order. 26Then it goes and brings seven other spirits more evil than itself, and they go in and dwell there. And the final plight of that man is worse than the first.”…-Anyways I didn't care about it too much & although I felt the urge to pray about it I really did not pray too much about it.With 29 days of clean behind me you can say I got a bit proud about myself.I was sitting to read the Bible that morning & immediately i got a fb message from a girl I should not have added.Well long story short very gradually the temptation grew & that night I fell! I was amazed how subtle & crafty the devil can be & how cautious we ought to be.
SO by posting this I plead to God that i would never more be proud about my spiritual achievements but I give Him all the glory & honor in all humility for the victory He has given me.So whoever you are reading this I want to say there is no shortcut or tricks to overcome this but just humble submission before God that will give you the victory.
I want to say that God is on this site as I have never had such victory in the past.I may not come back to this site except occasionally to post of the future victories in my life which I shall receive by the great mercies of the almighty savior.I think it is healthy for folks like us to avoid the computer as faaaaaaar as possible ! Please continue to keep me in prayers.
PS:I am expecting a miracle healing in my body from all my afflictions.Please pray for my healing & also for the grace of God to keep me from falling throughout this month,this year & the years to come.Oh Lord have mercy on me & all of us reading this,that we will live a pleasing life for You.
