    Firstly, know that anything is possible with God. I believe a lying and deceptive spirit is behind it. Like all other addictions, your brain and mind is made to strongly believe what you are addicted to helps you greatly in some way and you CAN'T stop.

    I was heavily depressed and sickly in my early twenties but I wasn't very fervent with God at the time. I watched an erotic movie one day and I got to ejac.late. My depression lifted and my pains were temporarily gone. And that was the beginning of long years of suffering, guilt and more depression and addiction. The devil lied to me to keep at it to always get that temporary relief and no matter how much I tried to stop, after a while I got back to it. Even the act itself introduced a pain in my leg. But I never ceased to pray. I prayed to battle the spirit of lust and did everything to not behold sensitive pictures and avoided watching TV generally. The brain replays pictures in the mind so you have to be sensitive to what you see.

    One day, I was led to pray and fast for a different thing I needed from God and that was how my total deliverance came. I never ceased to cast out the spirits of lust and deception and MSTbtion at every prayer opportunity. I just decided after keeping myself for the whole month in fasting and prayer and having being strengthened, there was no going back. God healed and delivered me. In short, it took prayer, fasting and a lot of discipline/dedication for my deliverance. I pray God speaks to you through this and deliver you in Jesus' name; Amen.

    My dear, the first step to overcoming masturbation is taking responsibility for your action. Nobody forces you to do it. You just do it. Next you need to understand that like every other addiction, there is a reason behind it. This takes us to the 4w question. Why, what, when, and where.

    i. Why do u masturbate? To get a lift out of depression or to fulfill your sexual urges.
    ii. What remindes you about your body sexually?
    Pornographic pictures, erotic movies and books etc.
    iii. Where do you masturbate?
    In your bedroom or in the bathroom
    iv. When do u masturbate? In d mornings or late at night.

    After answering these questions, do away with pornographic material and quit visiting their sites. Try not 2 b alone in your room or delay in d bathroom. When you wake up, hurry out d bed and open d doors and windows. Don't go 2 ur bed until ur truly sleepy and exhausted(exercise wil help u.) Go to the bathroom often, don,t try to hold urine it can get you horny.
    I will like you to know that, overcoming masturbation is a process. You won't wake up one morning and its gone, no. Its gradual. At first, you may seem to be falling back but don't let the devil glory over your life. If you fall get back up!

    May the Holy spirit strengthen you.
