I’ve been praying the Rosary and the Divine Mercy every day now for a while and even the prayer to Saint Michael and I go to daily Mass and Adoratoin of the blessed Sacrament… but yesterday and today 2-3 x’s I was tempted in my mind with lust, even though I haven’t been tempted that way for a while now.

I think it’w the evil one messing with me/attacking me, becasue lust used to be a real problem/struggle of mine.

Thanks so much

p.s. just for the info. I’m 34 and single, no girlfriend or nohting like that at the moment…
 
I’m praying for you.

It’s good that you pray the Rosary and attend mass on a daily basis. I would love to be able to attend mass daily. What a blessing.

Here is something that has helped me. Not necessarily with lust, but in general.

When you are being tempted, does a sense of frustration arise? It does with me.

And that frustration is energy. And that negative mental energy (frustration) can be converted into positive energy, prayer fuel.

Especially if the prayer is for others. Like your loved ones or for priests and bishops and the Pope. Or for the environment. Or a prayer to prevent nuclear war.

Maybe try to channel that frustration (at being tempted) into prayer fuel.

Maybe this comment is helpful or appropriate, I don’t know.

Have a good day.
 
Hay Jason,Hello Im George.
St Benedict had that same thing happen to him,Lustful thoughts and pictures pop’d up in his mind right after a little black bird was flying all around his face.It was a demon attempting to influence the Father Benedict away from GOD.I too have this struggle.
Here is the St Benedict Jubilee medal and read About.

The great thing is that you recognize it for what is really is.
*Don’t be scared of it,its just thought and Your on guard.
Kik out the thought,Rebuke it, in any way you’d like.
Your in charge, not it.All Glory Be to GOD!
 
the more you are getting strong the more you are going to be tempted since the stronger is going to be your capacity to face the tamptation.

May Lord gracve be with you, with your intention, may our Lord see your effort and forget you weakness, may Jesus be in your heart when the devils knock, may you rely upon His force and not in your capacity to resist, may the Lord not leave you to your own will and strenght but guide you and support you.
May our Lord blesing be with you.
 
Sweet Jesus please help Jason with his temptation to lust. Give him mercy and strength to fight it with You by his side. Ward away any evil that may be around him. †
 
O my Jesus
Forgive us ours sins,
save us from the fires of Hell, lead all souls to Heaven, especially those most in need of thy mercy.

Lord have mercy,
Christ have mercy,
Lord have mercy.
 
August Queen of Heaven! Sovereign Mistress of the angels! Thou who from the beginning hast received from God the power and mission to crush the head of Satan, we humbly beseech thee to send thy Holy Legions, that, under thy command and by thy power, they may pursue the evil spirits, encounter them on every side, resist their bold attacks and drive them hence into the abyss of eternal woe. O Good and Tender Mother,thou wilst always be our love and hope, send the Holy Angels to defend us and repel the cruel enemy far from us.
Holy Angels and Archangels, defend us, protect us! Amen
 
Hail Mary,
Full of Grace,
The Lord is with thee.
Blessed art thou among women,
and blessed is the fruit
of thy womb, Jesus.
Holy Mary,
Mother of God,
pray for us sinners now,
and at the hour of death
Amen.

St. Jude, pray for us!
 
May you keep up the good work with your prayer life and resist the devil solid in your faith. May you pray zealously and often for the strength and grace you need to resist temptation and remain in a state of grace. Amen.
 
“This…is what I pray before the Father from whom every family, whether spiritual or natural, takes its name: Out of His infinite glory, may He give you the power through His Spirit for your hidden self to grow strong, so that Christ may live in your hearts through faith, and then, planted in love and built on love, you will with all the saints have strength to grasp the breadth and the length, the height and the depth; until, knowing the love of Christ, which is beyond all knowledge, you are filled with the utter fullness of God.”
“Glory be to Him whose power, working in us, can do infinitely more than we can ask or imagine; glory be to Him from generation to generation in the Church and in Christ Jesus for ever and ever. Amen.” [Ephesians 3: 14-21]
