"The thief comes only to steal, kill and destroy," John 10:10. We play a part in our own downfall, but the temptation is from the devil

James 1:13 (NIV)
When tempted, no one should say, "God is tempting me." For God cannot be tempted by evil, nor does he tempt anyone;

Our sexual nature is a blessing from God, allowing us to enjoy an intimate relationship with our spouse. It is man that has corrupted that.

God can make it work for your benefit though by using our realization of our errors to better is through the spirit.

You were running a good race. Who cut in on you to keep you from obeying the truth? That kind of persuasion does not come from the one who calls you.
Galatians 5:7‭-‬8

But the fruit of the Spirit is love, joy, peace, forbearance, kindness, goodness, faithfulness, gentleness and self-control. Against such things there is no law.

Those who belong to Christ Jesus have crucified the flesh with its passions and desires. Since we live by the Spirit, let us keep in step with the Spirit.
Galatians 5:22‭-‬25

Then how are we still suffering from it eventhough we have asked for help numerous times? And wasn't peter given the thorn to humble him. I think it was peter who was given a thorn from the devil to humble him

Because it does not make sense asking God not helping us through our weakness. Listen to this sermon

Even though peter asked for the thorn to be removed three times Jesus told him to keep it

No temptation has overtaken you except what is common to mankind. And God is faithful; he will not let you be tempted beyond what you can bear. But when you are tempted, he will also provide a way out so that you can endure it.
1 Corinthians 10:13

That time when you're thinking ago I looking at some porn and you get a call or somebody interrupts you son other way and you're given the choice to say, "well I can just wait," or "this is destructive, I shouldnt do this."

I understand but there are numerous times where I prayed and read my bible and I still would fall. I m trying to berealistic here

The temptation would be unbearable sometimes and other times I would give in because of my weak nature

@Bullarrd yeah I have noticed a bunch of times where God created an escape

I know the feeling but you have to understand how humans work. We are a spirit being with a soul (emotions) living in flesh(body). Your flesh will do anything to enable that habit. God's words affect it but your flash will still want it

And even after we get some reading or hearing the word, or praying,the enemy will come to try and take it away from you. To test you and see if you're really committed to God and his will. Read Matthew 13, the parable of the sower

I've also had this thoughts, but I agree will Bullarrd. Not sure if you ever so the video your mind on internet porn, but it help explains why our body/ mind wants porn.

James 1:14 says: each person is tempted when they are dragged away by their own evil desire and enticed.
