Lord, i ask you to please take this sin of lust out of my heart, as Satan is always trying to control my emotions but i quickly turn my thoughts to you. I’m asking for your forgiveness and to help me be the representative for you and to receive the peace and wisdom and strength to stay focused on your love and your glorious gift of salvation and what awaits us in heaven.
Rom 13:14 But put ye on the Lord Jesus Christ, and make not provision for the flesh, to fulfil the lusts thereof.
By making no provision for the flesh one makes decisions to control one’s thoughts so that when a thought turns to the flesh, one can redirect it to something else.
2Co 10:5 Casting down imaginations, and every high thing that exalteth itself against the knowledge of God, and bringing into captivity every thought to the obedience of Christ;

Right. There is personal participation involved. A person must discipline themselves to say no. He must learn to say no of his own accord. God or the Holy Spirit will not interfere in anyone’s free will, we must make a daily choice. If we sin and choose to go through with it without saying no, it was no one else’s choice but his own.
Some loved the darkness more than the Light. Because their deeds were evil. Some loved the light enough to learn to say no and saying no two times makes it even easier and disciplines one’s soul.
Tell those women NO my Brother! It gets easier every time you do say no!. Then your Holy Spirit help comes alive in a big way…!!!
I find it nearly impossible to lust after someone who i earnestly pray for. Who i try to love.
Lust kills love. Love kills lust.
