DELIVERANCE FROM LUST

But among you there must not be even a hint of sexual immorality, or of any kind of  impurity, 
or of greed, because these are improper for God's holy people. (Eph. 5:3 NIV)

Father,

I come boldly before Your throne of grace and mercy to find help and strength my time of need.  Lord Your word says to watch and pray so that we will not enter into temptation, for we know that the spirit is willing, but Father my flesh is weak. Lord, I submit myself to You, for Your word says that if we submit ourselves unto You, that we could resist the enemy and he would flee from us.  Lord I am fully submitted to You, all that I am, all that I ever hope to be.  I surrender unto You. Father, I am weak but thou art strong, I know in my weakness You are made strong.  I know that my strength is not in my will to withstand the devil and his many temptations, but my faith, my strength, my hope is in You.  Therefore, Lord I confess that I am strong in You, and in the power of Your might.

Father, in the name of Jesus, I cast down every wicked, lustful, lascivious, and unclean thought of the enemy in the name of Jesus Christ of Nazareth.  I refuse to allow any thoughts of the enemy to enter in; I dismiss them from me in the name of Jesus.  Father, I pray that You will cause me to think upon those things which are pure, honest, and of a good report, and I pray that You will not allow my mind to wander into idleness, but to stay upon the name of Jesus.

Father, I thank You for revealing the evil lustful spirit that was trying to confuse me.  I thank You for not allowing me to be drawn away by his words of flattery, his lustful eyes, or his gifts of deceit.  I thank You for not allowing me to be overcome with lust in my eyes, for I know the eyes are the door to the heart, and Your words says to guard my heart with all diligence.  So Father, please help me to guard my heart by the words that I speak. Father, I pray that You will place upon me the whole amour of God, so that I will always be able to stand against the tricks of the enemy.  I pray that You will lead and deliver me from every temptation of lust, sin, and evil. 

In the name of Jesus, I take authority over Satan, every principality, every evil spirit, and every spirit of wickedness in high places.  I bind them up in the name of Jesus Christ and render them helpless from operating in my life.  In the name of Jesus I bind and cast off ever spirit of lust, adultery, fornication, lasciviousness, and uncleanliness in my life. Father, I surrender my body to you as a living sacrifice, and I recognize that my body is the temple of the Almighty Living God and a dwelling place for His Holy Spirit and I rejoice in knowing that the blood of Jesus Christ covers me. 

Satan, in the name of Jesus, every stronghold, You have tried to bring against me has been rendered helpless, powerless and ineffective to operate in my life, by the authority of Jesus Christ! I put off all forms of lust and put on the new nature of righteousness, purity, and honesty. Jesus has defeated satan in my life, and now you are under my feet, and your power of lust and sin is broken in my life. 

Father, I thank You for hearing my prayer, and delivering me from the tricks of the enemy.  I thank You for Your word and how it is established in my heart and in my life.  I thank You for giving me power over the enemy, I thank You for strengthening me so that I will not defile my body, and that it will be a temple for the Holy Spirit.  Thank You Lord, for restoring me, for cleansing me, and for forgiving me for my weakness.  I praise You; I give You all the glory and say Hallelujah to the name of Jesus. 

In Jesus name Amen
