I started thinking about my challenge in the previous WATILITSTP post: to stop-viewing-porn/seeing-someone-other-than-your-spouse and I thought this may be helpful. Here’s a list of thoughts. I’m sure there is more and better stuff out there, but this is too big to ignore.

Top 10 Ideas to get rid of Porn/the other person:

1. Get to know the Holy Spirit. He will bring to mind thoughts that will bring you to the only sure ground.

2. Get rid of the source. Whether it’s your computer/tv/phone, whatever it is get rid of it.

3. Join a trusted accountability group. Get help, don’t rely on your own strength.

4. Join a recovery type group. There are plenty of ones available. XXX Church, Conquer Series, etc.

5. See a professional Christian counselor. They can help discover keys to help equip you.

6. Think strategic like during a war. Know your strengths and limits. Highlight weaknesses and address them: ‘R’ movies, compromising magazines, relationships, facebook, etc.

7. Make sacrifices. A lifestyle of a living sacrifice helps erode temptation.

8. Change up schedules. Avoid a routine by filling your time with different things. Set goals for what you want to accomplish.

9. Hang up a picture of Jesus where you can see it prominently throughout the home. I know it sounds silly, but visual help is good to have.

10. Repeat every day: “I am a child of God. He loves me, so I love Me.” Then do the previous points.
