 Self-pleasure is amazing. It is healthy. It is normal. We should all be doing it. There are so many benefits from it. Hold up. Wait a minute. Self-pleasure or masturbation present themselves as a convenient solution to sexual frustration or to the desire for sexual pleasure. But this is why I want to warn you against it. It goes in direct opposition to God's design for sexuality. Our sexuality was designed to be expressed in the covenant union of marriage. Therefore, man shall leave his father and his mother and hold fast to his wife and they shall become one flesh. And beyond that, masturbation isn't a solution to the problem. Once becomes, weekly becomes daily. It doesn't leave you satisfied for long and leaves you in a state of guilt and shame. Friend, God's design is so much better. How can a young man keep his way pure by guarding it according to your word? With all my heart I seek you. Let me not wander from your commandments. I have stored up your word in my heart that I might not sin against you. Saturate your life with Scripture. Confess quickly when you fail. Don't stay in that place of guilt or shame. Through Christ you can find victory.
