       Honesty is key in your meetings, or the meetings won't do you any good. James said in his epistle, “confess your sins to one another and pray for one another, that you may be healed. The prayer of a righteous person has great power as it is working” (James 5:16, ESV). Talking with others can help us with our problems, and prayer will definitely help us. So this means also, number five, that for those of us who mature in Christ in the area of sexual temptation, we need to be willing to come alongside and help our fellow brothers when they need help. But it is important for the person who is struggling to let another sound minded individual know when he is struggling, or how else are we going to help? We should not turn away a brother who needs help, but should take the time to spend with the person who needs the help. Paul told the Thessalonians, “Therefore encourage one another and build one another up, just as you are doing” (1 Thessalonians 5:11, ESV). This is what we do in the body of Christ. We are to help one another, whatever the problem, so that we can all become more mature in following Christ. Plus, our prayers for each other will make a huge difference.
