You live in a world that is much more complicated than the world I lived in when I walked on Earth. Worldly knowledge has increased. People have many more choices than I had, and this has given My enemy a platform to give you many more unholy thoughts than ever before in history.
The only way that you can avoid being entangled with the three worldly lusts is to guard your mouth, eye, and ear gates to your mind. The three worldly lusts are: the lust of the flesh (seeking to fulfill your five senses in an addictive, obsessive way); the lust of the eye (vain imaginations, covetousness); and the lust of the pride of life (thoughts that exalt themselves against Me and trusting in yourself and your own resources instead of Me).
Of course, you are in the world, but not of the world. This is why the first choice you have to make every day is to go My way. Offer your body as a living sacrifice, make a covenant with your eyes not to behold evil, and ask My Holy Spirit to guard your tongue from speaking evil.
