Men must actively invest in their marriages and prioritize holiness to counteract the addictive nature of sexual sin. Practical defenses include utilizing accountability software like Covenant Eyes and memorizing specific "ammo scriptures," such as Psalm 101:3 and James 1:12, to immediately counter lustful thoughts.
