I needed to see this! I will fast be off of socials then once I’m off I’m back to socials-it’s crazy, I have a book that I haven’t finished b/c I’m on socials & yes RUclips videos are also my weakness. I really have to break those bad habits with socials
Wheww I got of the media a week ago trying to give myself a break. The only thing I did was got off one and hoped on another. Lord help me break this addiction
The best part I ever did was I took a 2-week break from social media. Read books, visit the park, and live my life routine. No Wifi, no TV, no internet, no phone. I quite feel bad for others who spend too much time tweeting, scrolling, or on their gadgets rather than going out, interacting with someone, and meeting people. It makes me feel so sorry for them.
Just deleted my Facebook and this pops up Kylia you are right on time. Imagine logging into social media everyday but not checking in with God and his word
To my own shame Ive been doing that since i got an internet phone during the lockdowns, got addicted and made an idol of the phone, Lord have mercy, just came across ( 2 Chronicles 7:14 ) hope it helps, thanks for sharing. God bless you.
I just came across your channel as I was searching for a video of this exact content. God lead me to you. I have found myself overly consumed the last few months due to the worldly events (presidential election), that I have lost control on social media and my time overly spent on social media. I want to get back on track with God, my studies, my prayers and my spiritual relationship with Jesus as well. So thank you for this video. I really appreciate the fact that you noted the first step is to “pray”. Because that is very important. Many social media influencers leave out that part. And prayer is the most important part. I love this video and I am now a new subscriber to your channel. Thank you so much, and have a blessed day! 🛐
ohhh geez, this one is for me. i never normally comment on any videos but the Lord has been convicting me of this problem for sooo long. i’ve watched so many self help videos to soothe the addiction been have never broken it. thank you for this, from the bottom of my heart, may God continue to use you!
I wanted to tell you that “geez” means Jesus. I figured out and I wanted to tell you about it because it is so normalized and it is good to have knowledge about this. You can do your own research but this is what I found.
My problem is I feel overwhelmed with the world after being on social media I’m consistent with God and my word devotions and everything everyday it’s just social media make my spirit drained overwhelmed and my mind begins to run rampant so I delete my socials a lot . I feel as if I’m not doing enough but we are all in different seasons in our lives.
Yeah I've been there before and deleting your socials may be helpful in that instance. Or creating an account where you don't follow people specifically but just things you're interested in.
I was definitely addicted to social media. I was way too distracted thinking about what outfits to wear for pics etc. Sooo unnecessary and a waste of time and energy. I prayed on it and God helped me to get over my addiction. Life is way better without social media. ❤
Much needed! Thank you sis! I'm going through a phase of surrender, farfrom social media and really drawing myself close to the Lord Almighty so this video really helped♥️🙏🏾
This was right on time! I woke up feeling off and noticed that this has been common. I need to reconnect and prioritize God so that my identity and the way I see myself is reflective of Him. Thank you! ❤
My current struggle. I recognize that social media is my stronghold. Whenever I get anxious or overwhelmed or even bored, I start scrolling. I know I should be spending that time with God, but the pull is so intense, and I fail every time. Thank you for sharing these tips because this is something that I must do. Keep me in your prayers.
Thank you. I feel seen and supoorted! So grateful I found your channel and am switcjing to positive spirit building videos rather than the doom scroll or gossip or relational sabateurs. So grateful for your work. Thank you!
Thank you so much for this! This has been truly eye opening. I came across the first video of yours called How to Be Still and trust God!!! And then you mentioned this video! These have been such a blessing for me!! God knew what I needed! I subscribed!😊
I have been feeling this way for so long, I’m struggling with it but I want to get closer to god and I have had him talking to me about all of this so I feel like it’s the right thing to do and I know I need to do what he tells me what to do.
I am so proud of you for making this video and hearing from God for all of us. This was definitely a word that he put in your spirit to bring forth. Thank you. I’ve never looked at it this way, and I’m sure this is going to definitely help out I spent too much time scrolling and I will be able to cut it off knowing that I should be spending more time with my best friend and father, the Savior. Thank you.
I needed this just came of a 21 day fast from meat junk food secular music and social media that was the hardest I wanna get back on but don’t wanna depend on it
Thanks for sharing, its an addiction , the following will break any addiction when done from the heart and trust in Jesus Christ alone ( 2 chronicles 7:14 if my people, who are called by my name, will humble themselves and pray and seek my face and turn from their wicked ways, then I will hear from heaven and will forgive their sin and will heal their land.
Thank you so much for this, I delete my socials often and then get back on and delete again. Constant issue I have but definitely going to pray for strength and peace of mind.
I would like to start off by saying thank you so much for your obedience. I've been going through this cycle with social media. I'll delete the apps, but for some random reason I'll reinstall them & the discontentment & low self-esteem cycle starts all over again. Thank you for making things plan & understandable. I'm praying for strength during this journey. I believe I will be able to overcome my anxiety & obtain a clearer mental space with the help of videos like this. Once again, thank you so much!!!
You're always giving timely messages, it amazes me❤ God Bless You. Like almost every video you put out speaks to my current situation is some way or form and this one speaks volumes. I've been struggling so much with social media and recently its been having a negative affect on my productivity and mental wellbeing. I've wanted to delete my social media completely, but in truth I sort of need it for business purposes. So it's been tough trying to navigate how to use it properly. I'm definitely going to try and use the tip about using it on my web browser rather than my phone, as well as praying and really being intentional about how I manage my time off it and when I need to be on it. Pray anyone struggling with this is able to break free from whatever hold social media may have on them ❤🙏
@@kyliajackson Thank you for allowing God to use you as a vessel. I don't typically comment but you are one of three Christian content creators that I watch regularly & your messages almost always are consistent with what I am struggling with. I truly enjoy your channel and your Spirit. May God continue to use you and bless you as you bless so many of us!
This was such a helpful and quite convicting video, thank you so much Kylia for sharing this. I would try and implement these steps trusting that God would help me overcome this addiction.
Very good advice about social media! I found myself grabbing my phone first thing in the morning before getting out of bed. Then I realized this is out of control. (Devil you are a lier) So I immediately did some of the thing you are suggesting here and what a big change. So seeing this video is confirmation of what I did was on point. Thanks as usual for all of your video. Ps. Just so you know I will NOT stop your notifications. They are MUCH needed. 😊God bless you.
I am currently on a Social Media cleanse from tiktok and Instagram. I have also cleaned up some of the You Tube channels I watch and deleted alot. I hope to be able to pull back from this as well.
It’s crazy because sometimes you go on to search up something and then end up scrolling and also hard if you do run a creative page you’re trying to build sometimes i find myself staying on longer than i need
Definitely feel you on that. When I use to manage social media pages I would batch my content and manage the notifications through third party apps so I wouldn’t doom scroll!
Great message! I also encourage people to watch some interviews with Dr. Anna Lemke who wrote the book dopamine nation to help understand the power of addiction to screens and all forms of media, including books, movies, RUclips, etc.
I agree!!! I delete Facebook but i reopened to see"what my friends do" and i close again and this happens for a long time.i don t know why iam doing this can you help me?
I do this too honestly. Like I said social media is not the issue it's our relationship with it. If you only follow the people that you want to see then I don't think it's an issue checking in. Friends post because they want to share that part of their lives.
What an empowering video! Shooting my friendship shot here! I’m a beautiful UK based black woman who desires to make more Christian friends. Say hi if you’d like to connect ☺️
thank you for this! 🤍🤍the timing is so perfect (thank you Lord!) because I'm about to end my social media break, so I love how you addressed the binging that tends to happen right after these breaks. I must be more intentional about praying for a heart change, especially since I've realized that cutting social media out completely doesn't allow me to learn how to be disciplined with it. but ofc breaks can still be helpful when I need to prioritize other things
I needed to see this! I will fast be off of socials then once I’m off I’m back to socials-it’s crazy, I have a book that I haven’t finished b/c I’m on socials & yes RUclips videos are also my weakness. I really have to break those bad habits with socials
Totally feel you on this! So glad it was helpful sis 🤍
Wheww I got of the media a week ago trying to give myself a break. The only thing I did was got off one and hoped on another. Lord help me break this addiction
This sounds exactly like me... Yoh!
Samee, Im doing it too
I deleted Facebook because I had no peace, I recently caught myself being hooked on RUclips & I will continue asking God to overcome for me
Yeah we have to be so careful but God is faithful to help us!
I wish people hadn't created these things
I deleted all my socials but been stuck being on RUclips. Smh ask God to be freed from the shackles of having to be entertained and welcome stillness.
He's always available to help!
This is exactly what I’m going through
@@Brenda-l9isame I’m tryna put God first then entertainment rather then the other way round

I quite feel bad for others who spend too much time tweeting, scrolling, or on their gadgets rather than going out, interacting with someone, and meeting people. It makes me feel so sorry for them.
The guilt I always feel after logging onto social media for hours…Thank you for these tips ❤
My pleasure!

I totally understand! So glad it was helpful!
There is a book called 40 day social media fast. Great book
Sounds good! I'll check it out!
