• The General Mental Health Forum is now a Read Only Forum. As we had two large areas making it difficult for many to find, we decided to combine the Mental Health & the Recovery sections of the forum into Mental Health & Recovery as a whole. Physical Health still remains as it's own area within the entire Recovery area.

    If you are having struggles, need support in a particular area that you aren't finding a specific recovery area forum, you may find the General Struggles forum a great place to post. Any any that is related to emotions, self-esteem, insomnia, anger, relationship dynamics due to mental health and recovery and other issues that don't fit better in another forum would be examples of topics that might go there.

    If you have spiritual issues related to a mental health and recovery issue, please use the Recovery Related Spiritual Advice forum. This forum is designed to be like Christian Advice, only for recovery type of issues. Recovery being like a family in many ways, allows us to support one another together. May you be blessed today and each day.

Hey ladies, I remember following this forum years ago and unfortunately, I have continue down this destructive path, I have slept with men for money and became a mistress to a married man.

Lately, I have returned to the gospel and reading the word of God. I strongly believe, God wants me to stop. How do I overcome this demonic soul tie and end this affair? I have prayed for mercy, strength and forgiveness, I have a uncontrollable pull to this man and it is hard for me to let go. I want to do the right things, and live a righteous life for the Lord but every time I get the courage to break away I am pulled back in. I am changing everything in my life that does not align with God's will. I don't listen to ungodly music or read/watch ungodly things. I don't hang out with ungodly people, just my family. I try to speak kindly to others and love them as Jesus does. I want everything in my life to reflect God and this is a huge battle for me.

Please pray for me.

FLover,

Are you part of a church? I think it would be best to join a church and receive counsel from the pastor. I also am struggling to be celibate by choice. I fortunately have a good relationship with my pastor and confide in him when necessary. A Christian without a church or support is bound to struggle with issues that cannot be possibly be dealt with by themselves. We all need help in times of need. I urge you to join a church and receive emotional support from others in church and by the pastor. I also was a stripper once and knew others who went down the destructive path of becoming sex workers. I got out immediately because of this. I thought I could strip for money but not sell my body. But, what is the difference? There is not any. God says to worship your body as a temple. Stripping for money or being a sex worker is not Godly. There is no difference. But, God forgives if we repent and realize that what we are doing is sinful. I became a stripper while I was away from the church. I had poor judgment and still do. I think this is the reason we all need a church to attend with a pastor who will help guide and advise us in times of need. You cannot deal with your issues by yourself. Please find a church and confide in the pastor at church. It has made a difference in my life. I will pray for you to do find a good church with a good pastor. We all walk a narrow path to heaven. It is difficult but don't think you are alone in your struggles. Many of us have done the same thing and know what your situation is. I am praying to God that you will not be alone in your issues anymore. I pray that you make the first move and go to church and talk with the pastor. I use this site for support too but having an actual person to confide in and talk with makes a big difference that cannot be replaced by the internet. God is there for you and calling out to you! Please take care!

Lately, I have returned to the gospel and reading the word of God. I strongly believe, God wants me to stop. How do I overcome this demonic soul tie and end this affair?

Maybe this will help, I don't know. I am trying to live in victory over sexual temptations myself. What God showed me today was that I am trusting my flesh to resist sexual temptation, and this is where I have been failing.

Trusting myself to resist sexual temptation is a bad move. I can't trust myself. I have finally learned this. This video is what helped me:


Trusting in God's rest is what I am doing now.

for anyone who enters God's rest also rests from their works, just as God did from his. - Hebrews 4:10

Sin is work!!! You got to leave your rest in Christ to do it.

We all are in bed with Sin. It's not something we can turn off.
All we can do is ask God to help us overcome our problem dealing
with
Sin.

Hey, thank you for sharing your story.
God cares us and he concerns all we concern, in
Isaiah 40:27-31 International Children’s Bible (ICB) said:
27 People of Jacob, why do you complain? People of Israel, why do you say, “The Lord does not see what happens to me. He does not care if I am treated fairly”? 28 Surely you know. Surely you have heard. The Lord is the God who lives forever. He created all the world. He does not become tired or need to rest. No one can understand how great his wisdom is. 29 The Lord gives strength to those who are tired. He gives more power to those who are weak. 30 Even boys become tired and need to rest. Even young men trip and fall. 31 But the people who trust the Lord will become strong again. They will be able to rise up as an eagle in the sky. They will run without needing rest. They will walk without becoming tired.

You seems a really nice and good christian to me. The devil is trying to attack us everyway, but what I find really powerful, is to always be a blessing to other people. For example, you can read other`s problems in the forums and try to help them out, then God will take care of you . Trust and do good, as the scripture says, really works

I am sending you prayers sister that God will help you break the soul tie with the man. I understand how hard it can be to have a soul tie. I pray that God heals you and soothes your spirit. May Jesus Christ be with you and show you his love.

Just pray a short prayer:
Lord Jesus Christ,
I submit myself to You. I resist all sinful passions, desires, and covetousness in the name of Jesus Christ.
Amen

Pray again and again until all sinful passions, desires and covetousness disappears
