All I can say is pray that you don't enter into temptation I'm also walking with the lord and I have also had those desires I fulfilled those desires of fornication because there is no other way of saying it specially if its one of the commandants believe me after you fulfill that lustfull desire you get convection and regret in your'e heart then the devil attacks you with condemnation and believe me its not worth it we need to die daily meaning our flesh we are new creatures in Christ seek first the kingdom of god and all things will come to pass.The lord will have the man that he chose for you read the book of
Proverbs there's wisdom..

Beloved, sex is good; it is a mitzvah. Life is also so complicated, as I am sure no-one needs to tell you. While there are many ways of relieving sexual desire without a partner, nothing compares with passionate sex with another consenting adult human being. I know your desire, we are all human and we do what the Master of the Universe has set us to do. This is nature. Yet, there are many reasons why we should temper our natural desire; disease is one that springs to mind. One must be careful. So your marriage did not work out, for this I am deeply sorry and I hope you find a loving partner who satisfies you. This is a modern world pet and we must sometimes move in modern ways, but follow your heart and be very careful. Once you have found someone you trust, respect and love (and desire) then, well, sex will be good. Enjoy. Shalom.

I am happy that you seek to please the Lord. You will find great fulfillment in doing so. But you will need to alter your lifestyle to keep yourself pure. I am divorced and have had to stay away from Romantic Movies, music and TV shows especially if I am feeling vulnerable. But I think the real key is to get busy doing things that are fulfilling to other parts of you.
If you are expressing yourself artistically or musically you will have more of an outlet. How about church choir or be a musician at a christian club, some churches and christian outreaches have and "Art Night"

I think the main thing to ask before you do anything is "will I be able to live with & forgive myself"...hopefully you will find someone to have a real relationship with. Sex without the trust & companionship likely isn't what you desire, considering you weren't satisfied by your former husband.

I am a Christian, and I don't believe God really cares if you have non-marital sex. "Thou shalt not commit adultery" is just that. A lot of people want to translate that into fornication but it does not say fornication it says adultery. That means don't sleep with someone else if you are married and don't sleep with a person who is married to some one else. Period.
The reason non-marital sex was bad in Biblical times was birth control did not yet exist. It is a bad thing for women to have lots of babies by different men who aren't around to provide a good family. But that problem is negated now. I mean, if you're going to follow the Bible by the letter of the law aren't you divorced? (Please forgive me if your husband died). The old testament says you can't remarry unless your husband dies.
It's okay to adapt things to make sense for the world we live in now. As long as you are not hurting anyone you will be fine. Don't sit around and let these desires consume your thoughts and waste your life. If you want experience go get it.

This is how I deal... first ask God for the 'fruits of the spirit" ie. self-control. Then in Phil. 4:8 "fix your mind on what is pure, excellent and worthy of praise." He will help you guard your mind. Remember 'seek first his kingdom and his righteousness, and all these things will be given to you as well.'. Trust in Him, it'll all work out for exactly what we need. Most of the time we can't see all the good God will do for us in His good time. :)

Try to get over your religeous hangups. If God didn't want us to have pleasurable experiences they wouldn't be pleasurable. I think that whatever Gods will originally was, it has been twisted and warped for thousands of years by man. You need to do what feels right in your heart and believe that a loving God would have meant for you to enjoy yourself.

Pray for self-control and a suitable mate.
