Demonic act

People ask after understanding the anatomy of a man is the question is masturbation a sin? Since man is structured in a way that his semen gathers periodically in a sperm bag, either he likes it or not, and the sperm need to be released, or you stopped in one way or the other, since man needs to release a use of the sperm, why then is masturbation considered a sin? But it's important to note that another way of releasing sperm for a guy is through wet dreams yet the Bible does not condemn it. The issue with masturbation is that when a man masturbates, he needs to put up an image of a feminine gender in his mind, of the image of his partner to be able to accomplish such an act. Now the act of imagining itself is the beginning of the wrong. It is equal to adultery according to what Jesus said with the Gospel of Matthew chapter five, verses 27 to 28. You've heard it once said to those of old that you shall not commit adultery. But I say to you, at whoever looks at a woman to lust for her, has already committed adultery with her in his heart. So the process of lusting after a woman even without physically making out with her is a sin. masturbation, however, has to be accompanied by this mental picture in mind. Besides this, there are a number of other reasons why masturbation is wrong, and it can destroy one's life. So here are some of the consequences of masturbation. Number one

It creates a feeling of guilt. Majority of believers know that it is wrong to masturbate. They know that God's biblical principles does not approve masturbation. Still, many of you do it, which creates a sense of guilt, because he know you shouldn't be doing it. And if care is not taken, the sense of guilt becomes overwhelming, and swallows up all of God's words to you. And you slowly begin to fall into condemnation. Now what condemnation does is that it draws you farther away from God. They begin to draw back and you accept the world's definition of acceptance of masturbation. And before you know it, you've gone far away from God. Number two

It leads to low self esteem. Watch it. Men who practice masturbation regularly have this feeling of inferiority, you feel inferior to every other person in the room. They feel as though they're the abnormal ones in the room. And many times, believers who masturbate cannot body state so in public, and whatever you're doing that cannot be boldly stated publicly, would sooner or later lead to a decrease sense of esteem for the fear of people finding out or the fear of lack of self control.

Number three

it can ruin your marriage, present, or future. Frequent masturbation can create a feeling of sexual satisfaction from one's partner, and it can make you long to masturbate after copulating with your spouse. Imagine a scenario where a husband and a wife copulate, and afterwards, the woman stands up, goes to the toilet and begins to touch yourself. Then her husband finds out it can create a sense of incompetence in the husband, because every man wants to satisfy his woman. In the same way, a woman finding her husband masturbating just after the copulate, she can be distraught. Women are more expressive beings. And she soon begins to feel like what really is the point of surrendering her body to you, since you can easily satisfy yourself sexually. In another light, people who masturbate may not enjoy copulation with their spouse, and they may see no need for sexual intercourse, thereby depriving the spouse the right to their body, causing them to be sexually starved. Make no mistake, masturbation can also lead to swinging your marriage. And this is where a spouse is no longer aroused to be with his or her spouse and resorts to having intercourse with another married spouse. Yes, it does happen.

Number four

it can become an addiction. Now I for one know someone who feels sick if he doesn't masturbate. He has fever and diarrhoea until he masturbates and he can't stop himself. He will leave class to go to his room and masturbate. At some point. It got so bad that he could masturbate anywhere, and it began to affect his daily life. He couldn't concentrate in class. He couldn't really go out with his friends without excusing himself to masturbate, and his life was almost destroyed because he couldn't stay sane without masturbating.

Well, thank God for quick help and therapy sessions.

Number Five

Masturbation creates the need for an increase in pornographic content. So due to the fact that people need to have an image in their minds while engaging in masturbation, porn helps a lot with that. It grants a good deal of access to nude women, sexual scenes that create an atmosphere for arousal, the moaning sounds that ate the process of masturbating. Now, the effect of pornography is also alarming. Because the more pornographic content a person takes in, the harder it is to stop masturbating. And the more a person masturbates, the harder it is to stop watching pornographic content. So when watching porn, there's a release of dopamine in the brain. This is the same substance released when using addictive substances. When dopamine is constantly released, the brain attempts to reduce its release. And this leads to reduction in excitement when using porn. And this makes the user need something more extreme to experience the same level of excitement he felt when he started. Now this leads to a constant desire for porn. And starting to use of pornography is not an easy choice, but stopping is a more difficult choice. l. Number six

Medically, masturbation can lead to prostate cancer. Although still largely under investigation, a 2008 study revealed that frequent sexual activity during a man's 20s and 30s increases risk of prostate cancer, especially if he masturbated regularly. Masturbation can start as a seemingly harmless activity, but sooner or later, it becomes an uncontrollable one. The Bible says something profound in the book of Proverbs chapter 16, verses 32 that it is better to have self control than to conquer a city. Now this emphasises the importance of being able to control one's body. Now self control is a fruit of the Spirit.

Conclusion

The believer must clearly be able to control his body. Now don't forget that the devil is constantly looking for an opening to penetrate the believers life. And this opening can be masturbation. It is possible for you to be a tongue talking believer and get be struggling with masturbation. The gifts of God My dear friend, without repentance. So this means that it is very possible for you to still operate in the gifts of the Holy Ghost and be struggling with masturbation. It doesn't make it right. Rather, the enemy's giving you a reason to defend it and to continue doing it. Now that thought that you won't survive without masturbation is a lie from the pit of how you were surviving before you began to masturbate, and it will only ruin you. The effect is very subtle, and you might not even notice it. It creeps in on you like a thief in the night. Once the devil is able to find an opening through masturbation to attack you, he allows you to feel comfortable doing it. And you think it's normal after all, here a man and slowly becomes an addiction. And when this happens, you begin to breed an atmosphere for demons. The once spiritually fervent and kingdom oriented believer begins to get carried away with carnal stuff. It doesn't happen at once. Because the devil is way smarter than that. What was the atmosphere for demonic presence is there anything can happen? It becomes a safe haven for sin to dominate. And it can even lead to sexual intercourse with multiple sexual partners. Then you begin to wonder how did the man of God a woman of God get here? Beware, dear believer, masturbation destroys lives. Now it doesn't matter why you started. It doesn't matter whether it's due to peer pressure, or to deal with some challenges facing you. Maybe a desire to know how it feels like maybe even exposure to sexual relations by outsiders, like rape, sexual assault from uncle's aunties. It's not worth the consequence at all. So make up your mind to constantly renew your mind with God's word. Meditate on your victory. Speak to a counsellor. Don't hide it, and intentionally pray to God and stay away from anything. And stay away from anything porn. For example, porn or microwave graphic sexual scenes in your mind, disassociate from your friends who believe it's normal. Because you don't need them. You definitely do not need these people. Masturbation kills, but God saves. Thank you for listening. And God bless.
