Hello! I will remain quiet on who I am!
but here it goes!
I have been married for almost 10yrs! i battle everyday all day with sexual sin!
not sure why i am being tempted so much but it seems like i am losing this battle no matter what i do or when i pray and ask for forgiveness, those sexual thoughts come back to my mind and i feel like i can not erase them until i fulfill them. i normally visit an exotic club and use the vip rooms for pleasure or contact an escort service i wear protection at all times and normally only get rubbed on...i really need help and not sure where i should go!! any suggestions advice or prayers will greatly be appreciated!
Thanks!

Hi lostsoul1114,
Have you read all of the articles on the BG homepage about how to recover from SA? This usually requires individual counselling with a christian counsellor with experience helping those with SA, and/or group recovery meetings and accountability partners.
Praying for you...

I can only come at you from where I have been and where I am today. I understand what you are saying and that you are in a fog. Doing what you are tempted to do. Some of this is because you have always done what the devil has told you to do.
What I did is start with prayer,everytime you leave where you are at. Work home shopping ask for help from Him that loved you so much He dies for you.
Next have a list of places, and ways to get to where you need to go, that do not lead passed the "old haunting places".
When like leaving work/meeting call your SO so you will not have "that time" you need to act out. Make yourself accountable. When you use the computer sandwitch yourself with somesort of accountability. "It takes 20 minutes to do what I need to do, I'll call as soon as I have turned off the computer."
Have a list of "positive things" that you can do when tempted. Take a walk, do the laundry, wash the car..... If you are married, and your a man, ask the wife to make,and keep a real "honey do list". It not only lets you be able to check off the things that need to be done but it also will make her a happier spouse. 
Find an accountability partner one that will hold you accountable. It's hard to tell someone "Man, did I blow it today"
I have always found "the lists" a way to make myself or remind myself of the positive life style, instead of just doing that things I will regrete later. Would not hearing the birds sing better than walking out of a parlor checking that nobody has seen you?
There is no temptation that He has not also given you a way out.
