When it comes to overcoming sexual sin, we only have two options to flee or to fail..
sometimes like Josef...
sometimes we even have to run from ourselves!

“Joseph was well-built and handsome, 7 and after a while his master’s wife took notice of Joseph
and said, “Come to bed with me!”
8 But he refused. “With me in charge,” he told her, “my
master does not concern himself with anything in the house; everything he owns
he has entrusted to my care. 9 No one is
greater in this house than I am. My master has withheld nothing from me
except you, because you are his wife. How then could I do such a wicked thing
and sin against God?” 10 And
though she spoke to Joseph day after day, he
refused to go to bed with
her or even be with her.
11 One day he went into the house to attend to his duties, and none of the household servants was inside.12 She caught him by his cloak and said, “Come to bed with me!” But
he left his cloak in her hand and ran out of the house.” Genesis 39: 7-12
"RUN FROM SEXUAL SIN! No other sin so clearly affects the body as this one does.
For sexual immorality is a sin against your own body."
1 Corinthians 6:18
So…
"I beat my body and make it my
slave.” 1Corinthians 9:27

If it gets worse…
" And if your right hand
causes you to stumble, cut it off and throw it away. It is better for you
to lose one part of your body than for your whole body to go into hell."
Matthew 5:30
