      Celibacy is not difficult if you avoid watching certain movies, self pleasuring, constantly praying for God to take away the desires for physical intimacy (which cannot be fulfilled), and keeping active! I doubt my celibacy tenure will ever end!

      @@Anthony-yy3kcI 100% agree. Also I began pleading the blood of Jesus over my body parts too so that the Lord would cover them each time I would get urges or sexual thoughts. I still have thoughts at times and the desires though not as frequent as before, I pray instantly they come on and speak Gods word casting down those vain imaginations which exalt itself above the knowledge of God. I can’t recall which particular scripture it is from, but it works the more I speak it over myself and plead the blood.

    Once you understand celibacy You will understand your own energy. Once you understand your own energy. Then your purpose in life will be added to you because you begin to attract high vibration people and manifest the things you want and deserve in life.

      I used to have problems with masturbation too, until I listened to a message by Prophetess TIPHANI Montgomery talking about if the Holy Spirit resides within us, it is a violation of Him and she likened it into rape and I kind of felt that made sense. There was Biblical application to it and I also listened to the whole dark side of porn from ex-stars who got saved and the spiritual attachment and delay of our marriages or demonic agendas within masturbation and watching porn allowing perversion into my life. So it helped me to abstain! It’s almost a full year for me now fully as I fell off the celibacy journey last year March, after a really bad health span where I nearly died. God bless you sisters for sharing what God is doing in your life @LaLa Jenkins. It’s inspiring and has fired me up hearing sisters speaking so openly unashamed (as church at times makes you feel so crazy talking about it). I feel that’s the main reason why we fall off, because we hide it. So Praise God for His daughters speaking out! ❤❤❤ praise God and God bless you!

    Soror omg this message blessed me! I’ve been abstinent since 3/30/2016. I answered my calling to ministry and graduated from Howard University with a Master of Divinity degree. Nevertheless, as a Preacher it’s so hard because I too feel called to be someone’s wife but I want to give my body as a sacrifice to God as I preach the Gospel. However, this journey of abstinence is HARD and I thought about giving up and your video popped up( talking about divine intervention 😩). I know this was God telling me to keep going and my prayers of marriage will be answered in God’s divine timing! Thank you for your testimony 🤗💕 it feels comforting to know I’m not alone in this journey of abstinence….

    I desire someone who is abstinence like me and they support and compliment my journey and not hinder it. I have been abstinence for years. And I have had other women tell me nobody is going to want someone like me or that no man is going to want me. I have had men tell me what happens if it's not good it's a bunch of excuses. I have a hard time with meeting men nowadays because everybody is hooking up on social media. When I am running errands or walking in the mall I don't get approached at all. I just stopped praying to God about a man. It is hard. Because I feel like God has forgotten about me. And I am in my 30's the struggle is real. I didn't have a high school sweetheart or marrying anybody after I graduated from college. Awesome video.
