Men get tempted everyday and none can escape sexual temptation. Sexual temptation starts in mind indeed. Input from audio and visual engage with our weak flesh. It really depends how we respond that determines the outcome. But God always provides a way out.
Principles learned in dealing sexual temptation are daily communion with God as well as commitment for winning the lost. Nevertheless, a deeper relationship and committed accountability serve as check and balance in men’s life. Not to forget a defensive prayer.
Proverbs 7:6-27 illustrates a good example on how a man can guard himself from falling into sexual temptations. Self-control is important as we are bearing the image of God. How can we shine if we are not setting a barrier with sexual sins? Persistently guarding our mind - it’s not that easy as it says though. Avoidance is another measure and finally guard what we see, hear and read. We can do all these with God’s help.
