If we are struggling with a particular sin over and over, scripture gives advice on many of the ways we can resist temptation: 

 - Don't become arrogant if you think you have beaten a particular sin (I Cor 10:12). 

- Look for a way of escape (I Cor 10:13). This might be avoiding situations where you commonly encounter the temptation, seeking accountability so you have no unsupervised capability of indulging the temptation, replacing a trigger (such as TV or computer use) with time with God (such as Bible study or prayer), etc. 

- Pray (Luke 11:4) - Confess sins to other Christians (James 5:16). They can help in both accountability and intercession. 

- Put on the armor of God, daily (Eph 6:10-20) - Analyze the source and root of the sin, and any lies one may be telling oneself about it (James 1:13-15) 

- Seek medical help or therapy if needed (As some sins are addictions, which affect brain chemistry) 

- Analyze one's social circle and priorities. Do they show friendship with the world, or with God? (James 4:4-6) 

- Be humble (James 4:6, James 4:10, II Chron 7:14).  

- Submit to God and resist the devil. This means submission in obedience and heart to the Lord, but standing firm against the attacks of Satan. (James 4:7-10)
