Prayer List: Pornography Leads to Sex Before Kissing


kissing

Join us in praying for the victims of pornography during #NoPornovember.

Event organizer Fight The New Drug reports, “Girls and young women are under a lot of pressure to give boys and men what they want, to become a real life embodiment of what the boys have watched in porn, adopting exaggerated roles and behaviors and providing their bodies as mere sex aids. Growing up in today’s porn culture, girls quickly learn that they are service stations for male gratification and pleasure.”

Fight the New Drug cites a scary example of the sexual revolution …

 

A male high school student said to a girl: “If you [give me oral sex] I’ll give you a kiss.”

 

Prayer List

* Pray for children, teenagers and adults viewing pornography to discover what God intended for human sexuality and replace their porn viewing habits with healthy media choices.
* Pray for the Holy Spirit to work in the lives of the porn distributors, filmmakers, actors, actresses, models, photographers, prostitutes, and sex traffickers by convicting them of sin and placing within them a desire to know Jesus Christ and to be holy.
* Pray for sex addicts to be set free from their addiction.
* Pray for Christians counselors, pastors, priests and youth workers to effectively minister to porn addicts and people working in the porn industry.
* Pray for Christians struggling with porn to develop self control and to replace the lust in their hearts with true love.
