One of the powerful lies the enemy of your soul whispers in your ear is that “I have no choice. I just can’t help myself. I have to look, I have to lust, I have to masturbate! After all, I’m only human. God will understand.”  Yes, you are only human, and yes, God understands, but you DO have a choice. You always have a choice, and you can help yourself (through Christ). You don’t have to lust, you...

Proverbs 2:6 says, “For the Lord gives wisdom; from his mouth come knowledge and understanding.” The way you are assured to experience permanent victory versus temporary success is through the daily study and application of God’s word. I don’t want you to miss this. It is only “from his mouth” that you will receive wisdom, knowledge and understanding. Only “from his mouth” will you discover how to...

We need to invite God to speak into our heart and be our teacher, our leader, and our God. God says (Jeremiah 29:12-13) “Call upon me and come and pray to me, and I will hear you. You will seek me and find me, when you seek me with all your heart.” In this week’s episode we focus our attention on how prayer is an integral part of our pursuit of purity. So let’s learn how to pray, pray, and then pr...

OK, so maybe you don’t get drunk, and you don’t misuse over-the-counter drugs; you may not overeat or blow your top in anger, or cheat, or steal, or any of a number of “vices.” You might be looking in the mirror thinking “I’m a pretty good person overall.” However, anytime you choose to put King Me on the throne of your heart you are standing before the King of kings, you appear before the Righteo...

Are you – or a family member or close friend – struggling with sexual purity? Do you find yourself fighting a never-ending battle? Are you feeling discouraged, convinced that you’ll never be free from the lure of lust, the pull of porn, and the magnet of masturbation? Welcome to what promises to be the launch of a powerful change in your life. This is The Point of Purity Podcast. I’m your host, St...

You CAN be free! Not just “free for a while”–I mean totally, permanently F-R-E-E free! However, this kind of freedom doesn’t come easily and it’s not going to happen overnight. It has taken time to create this habit, and it will take time and effort to gain victory over it. Welcome to The Point of Purity Podcast. This is episode 91, and in this week’s episode we continue with our new series focuse...

The Lord your God–the Almighty, all-powerful, most holy Creator of the Universe, Heaven’s victorious and Mighty warrior– is with you ! He not only dwells within you, but He also surrounds you. He is in your midst. He hasn’t left you. He hasn’t forsaken you. He hasn’t given up on you, and He never will. Welcome to The Point of Purity Podcast. I’m your host, Steve Etner, Author, National Speaker, an...

Thirst can be a powerful motivator. When thirsty, a person might do just about anything to quench that thirst. That thirst begins to dominate your thinking, which in turn strongly influences your words, your attitude, and your actions. It leaves you with a “gotta have it no matter what” mentality. What about you? When you find yourself sexually “thirsty” and feeling like you’re going to shrivel up...

When you question God’s Word, you then begin to doubt whether it is really absolute truth. You begin to focus your attention upon King Me and all the perceived “rights” that are being denied you. You are now viewing God’s standards as burdensome and unloving. From there, it’s a simple step into thinking about all the pleasures sin can afford – and you allow yourself to think about those things apa...

Every word of Scripture is important to and inspired by God. So, if each and every word is important to God, then it should be equally as important to us. In the garden of Eden, Satan planted a tiny seed of doubt in Eve’s mind. She let herself think about Satan’s suggestion vs. God’s promise; and as a result her response to the Devil was tainted. In this episode, we are going to continue our deep...

Isaiah 26:3 says that God “will keep in perfect peace him whose mind is steadfast, because he trusts in you.” What an amazing promise! When your mind is completely focused upon God, having total confidence in Him no matter what may be happening around you, God promises to keep you in a place of complete safety. A place where you are able to experience a quiet contentment and soundness of mind. All...

Your eyes and your ears are the gateways into your mind. What you allow to enter through either gate will impact your effectiveness for Christ. That’s why Proverbs 4:23 says, “Above all else, you must guard your mind. Welcome to a very special episode of The Point of Purity Podcast. I’m your host, Steve Etner, Author, National Speaker, and Purity Coach for The Pure Man Ministry. In this episode no...

What is the purpose of a guard? A guard keeps watch for the enemy. He understands that the enemy is near, intent on his destruction. A good guard knows that the enemy could attack at any moment. The guard is posted to protect the camp, sounding the alarm, and giving the call to arms when the enemy approaches. An effective guard is always on high alert. In this week’s episode, we continue our discu...

Have you ever stopped to consider that the people and things around you have an impact upon what and how you think? The things you see and the things you hear have a direct influence on the things you think, which in turn strongly impacts the things you do. Your mind plays a very important role in your pursuit of purity and godliness. This is why Proverbs 4:23 commands us to “above all else, guard...

Before we can truly delight in God’s Word we must understand that the Bible is God’s Word written to show us who God is and who we are before Him.  The Bible teaches us how to live lives that are holy and pure. It shows us how to say “no” to sin and yield our lives in full surrender to God – living a life that truly glorifies Him. It is vital to every part of your life that you invest your time in...

I’m going to ask you a question. Ultimately the answer requires you to be brutally honest, not with me but with God. Are you ready? Here it is: How do you FEEL about God’s Word? Say what? You’re kidding me, right? Nope. I’m quite serious. How do you feel about God’s Word? Assuming your answer is something like “I Love God’s Word!” let me ask you this: Do your actions support that answer? This is e...

What is true prosperity and success? The world would say it’s achieved when you have such things as a happy marriage, your kids honor and respect you, you have a solid position at work, you’re bank account is growing, and you’re enjoying great health. While all those things may define the American dream, they are not God’s definition of prosperity and success. We tend to make everything about us....

I think it’s safe to say that you would love being prosperous and successful in life – right? Whether it’s at work, in your finances, or your marriage, your friendships, on the list can go. Is there anything wrong with that? Of course not. However, we must keep in mind that prosperity and success, as the world defines it, is not to be our primary goal.
