Overcoming Lust

2 Timothy 2:22

Lust comes from three sources:

World – Fight lust at its gates (eyes). From eyes, to thoughts, to actions, to habits, and to destiny David and Samson lost that battle. Job won that battle. Jesus’ eyes are on fire If you don’t fight outside, you’ll end up fighting inside and ruin your furniture The way to fight is to flee Fighting with lust it’s pointless, you’ll lose

Flesh – What you feed lives, you what you starve dies Whoever is fed dominates Walk in the Spirit and you will not fulfill the lusts of the flesh (Galatians 5:16)

Satan - Behind Delilah were Philistines There is such a thing as a spirit of lust – like there is spirit of holiness You can’t overcome spirit with discipline, you need deliverance We crucify flesh and cast out demon not the other way around

Pornography is athletes foot Lust never satisfies, it takes, no commitment, it’s deceptive
