If you are serious about escaping sexual temptation and living a pure and holy life you need to make a covenant with your eyes. Let Job be your example. He, “….made a covenant with [his] eyes not to look lustfully at a young woman” (Job 31:1). The person who is serious about avoiding sexual sin will not window shop.
“For everything in the world—the lust of the flesh, the lust of the eyes, and the pride of life—comes not from the Father but from the world. The world and its desires pass away, but whoever does the will of God lives forever.”
— 1 John 2:16-17 (NIV)
Lord Jesus, deliver us from the lust of the flesh and the lust of the eyes. In Your holy name we pray. Amen.
