The devils' bait sin, his most effective tool for human destruction:

Sin does not just come for you to engage in it just once and you quit from it....
Sin comes to addict you...
Sin has its sweetness and promises to satisfy your soul each moment and makes you look towards another moment of its sweetness such that it can keep you coming for it over and over again with the devil's aim of keeping you in its pleasure/sweetness till you die inside it without repentance or procrastinated-repentance such that you forget death can come before your intended procrastinated date/time and you will end-up in eternal regret with the devil in hell-fire.

Just 1-second of a particular sinful engagement in thought, words, desires, imaginations or lifestyle then watch out as such sin holds such person down not just for 1-day or 1-week or 1 -year but for very long years unless the mercy of God comes with *His powerful grace to break such person away from sin/the-flesh*
This is why it is very easy to start or engage in a particular sin but it is a *great battle to quit from sin/the-flesh*
thus Jesus declared "He who commits sin is a slave(addict) to sin and a slave does not have a permanent position in the household(Heaven) but a Son abides in the household forever therefore if the Son sets you free, you are free indeed" (John 8:34-36)

Cry to Jesus Christ Crucified now with all your soul, spirit and body to be completely set free from sin and the control of sin because ONLY JESUS SAVES COMPLETELY FROM SIN
thus
"His name shall be called JESUS because He will *deliver* His brothers and sisters from their sin" (Matthew 1:21)

Do not give up in praying, fasting and studying the word of God to receive the NEW LIFE that is incorruptible by sin which JESUS gives through our faith agreement in accepting death of our *flesh/old-being/self* in union with Jesus on the Cross and having our old-dead-self *completely replaced* by *this NEW LIFE OF JESUS CHRIST CRUCIFIED* thus "having been *born again*, not of corruptible seed but *by an incorruptible seed*, through *the word of God which lives and abides forever*" (1 Peter 1:23 )

I am a living testimony that no matter how deep you have dwelt in sin, Jesus will completely set you free if you mean what you say to HIM in prayers about *dying to your flesh in union with HIM ON THE CROSS* and *receiving the new life of His resurrection* because Jesus is *able to save completely those who come to God the Father through HIM anytime or any-day
thus

"By so much was Jesus made *a surety of a better testament*.
23 And they truly were many priests, because they were not suffered to continue by reason of death:
24 But this man(Jesus), because *He continues/lives forever, has an unchangeable priesthood*.
25 Wherefore *He is able also to save them to the uttermost/completely* that come unto God *by Him*, seeing *He forever lives to make intercession for them*.
26 For such *an high priest became us*, who is holy, harmless, undefiled, separate from sinners, and made higher than the heavens;" (Hebrews 7:22-26 KJV)
