I noticed that ever since I made this account there's been alot of growth, change, events, and improvements it feels unbelievable to me

I've only began believing in God (the one from the Bible, yes, I believe the devil is real aswell) around when I was 15(still 15 years old)

I think I made this account late 2020 and alot has happened since 4 years of drawing&posting on this account

I used to curse so much and rehearse innapropriate songs, have groups of "friends", getting myself into drama, rushing myself was bad for my mental health

I began feeling suicidal since 13 or 14 years of age, making these gore and hateful posts.

I ended up getting addicted to sexual lust and fleshly childish desire.

Big changes happened once I turned 15 though and I made a post talking about my birthday on the exact night I turned 15

God changed my life so much I began posting way less, almost no more cussing, started off with a few post about God (I deleted them since it was bad advice though, delivered with confusion and fear in my heart at that time)

God pulled me through that though, and I began to disconnect from other groups of "friends" I used to have

I noticed I also got better with my art (obviously that is guaranteed to happen over time, but it is huge improvement from back then)

So much has changed since. I'm feeling alot more thankful for my life and alot more innocent than I used to be.

Count this as my testimony for you guys, it was all thanks to God.
Abide in Christ as he abides in you, without him you cannot do anything.

I think I know what to say to help with that

The Bible says we have 2 sides to us, the flesh and the spirit

Our flesh has the sinful nature and our spirit shares the same desires God has.

Both our flesh and spirit contradict eachother, which is why we get tempted to sin but the spirit is willing to resist sin.

You can weaken your flesh though, doing stuff that build your spirit up like praying to God, reading the Bible, (Btw, it's not supposed to be read in order)
and fasting &praying (<- most effective) will all build your spirit and weaken the flesh

And pretty much, rely on God's power, your own power won't deliver you from sin

This helped me alot regarding resisting temptation of my addictions especially lust.
