Q & A

Why do those called to a higher purpose often struggle with lust?

Those called to a higher purpose often face struggles with lust because it's not just a physical temptation, but a spiritual battle. The enemy targets individuals with divine callings to weaken them and hinder their purpose.

Can you give examples of biblical figures who struggled with lust?

Yes, examples include King David, who fell into lust with Bathsheba, and Samson, whose strength and calling were overshadowed by his weakness for Delilah.

Why does the struggle with lust seem to hit harder for those chosen by God?

The struggle with lust seems harder for those chosen by God because it is a spiritual attack. The enemy knows that if they can corrupt a chosen one’s purity, it could derail their spiritual growth and purpose.

What does the Bible say about spiritual warfare in relation to lust?

The Bible emphasizes spiritual warfare in Ephesians 6:12, stating that believers wrestle against principalities, powers, and spiritual hosts of wickedness. Lust, in this context, is seen as a tool used by the enemy in spiritual warfare.

What is one reason why lust is a powerful temptation for those with divine callings?

One reason is that individuals with spiritual sensitivity are often more aware of both God's presence and the enemy's tactics. This heightened sensitivity makes them more vulnerable to temptation.

How does isolation contribute to the battle against lust for those with a divine calling?

Isolation creates a vulnerability, as chosen ones often walk a path that others don't understand. Without strong accountability or spiritual connections, lust can become a private struggle, making it harder to overcome.

What is the relationship between a high calling and stronger spiritual attacks?

The higher the calling, the greater the spiritual attacks. Lust is one of the enemy's tactics to distract and weaken those with a high calling, preventing them from fully realizing their purpose.

How do emotional wounds contribute to the struggle with lust?

Emotional wounds, such as rejection, abandonment, and past heartbreaks, can open doors for lust. These unhealed scars make individuals vulnerable to seeking comfort in lust as a false way to fill the emotional void.

Why do those with strong spiritual gifts often struggle with lust?

Even those with powerful spiritual gifts struggle with lust because they are still human. The flesh remains weak, and without consistent spiritual practices like prayer, fasting, and renewal of the mind, the battle against lust becomes more intense.

What are some ways chosen ones can overcome the battle with lust?

Victory over lust is possible through spiritual discipline, accountability, and healing. Regular practices like prayer, maintaining strong spiritual connections, and seeking inner healing can help chosen ones overcome this struggle.
