One of the best affirmations I’ve ever used in prayer when lust threatens to overtake me: “Lord, Your pleasure is my greatest delight.” And if it isn’t your greatest delight, confess that to God: “Lord, Your pleasure has not been my greatest delight, but I know that it should be, and I am asking You to change my heart and mind to please You.” It’s simple, easy to remember, and very powerful.
@@nikolaiosborn1710 You definitely can't break it,it's never been up to you alone.Allow Jesus to help, don't depend on your strength you will fail.Sometimes redemption isn't instant, but as a saved child of God,Even when you fail, declare that You are the righteousness of God through Christ.
@@nikolaiosborn1710 Jesus said, "What is impossible with man is possible with God." That’s a powerful reminder that no matter how strong the temptation, God’s strength is greater. Make prayer a daily habit-especially in moments of temptation. When you're struggling, drop to your knees and ask God for help. Lust is one of those temptations we’re told to flee, not fight. When the urge hits, don’t stay and battle it-run to God instead. Every time you're tempted to watch porn, you'll likely hear that small voice inside saying, "This is wrong." But we often ignore it for the sake of instant gratification. It's time to listen to the Holy Spirit, take action, and choose freedom. That’s the only way to truly break free. May God bless you with his strength and power in times of testing.
I've been praying for God to show me the sins I've overlooked, and today, I watched this video, and a million memories came flooding back. Thank you, Jesus, for being merciful to me.
I just want to say that it’s not something YOU can come over on your own. I struggled with pornography for years, but I only ever overcame it when I stopped trying to do it in my own strength and started doing it through Gods. On our own we our weak but with God I finally strong. He is your father and wants to help, we just have to ask. Fill yourself up with his strength by spending time with him in all you do and be set free by his love. Stop running away from sin and start running towards God. I love you Brother god bless you and may you find peace in his arms, talk to him, be with him, ask him. I will be praying for you and I am proud of you. He is too :)
JLY! Romans 10:9 “If you declare with your mouth “Jesus is Lord” and if you believe in your heart that God raised Jesus from death, then you will be saved.” Love your neighbor- love your enemies! JESUS IS THE ONLY WAY!! God is with you no matter where you are!!! Repent (completely turn away from your ways/sins-turn 180 degrees from your old ways), Declare Jesus as Lord of YOUR LIFE, Believe in Christ as THE MESSIAH and that GOD RAISED JESUS from DEATH!!!! Jesus Loves You!!! 1 John 1:9 “If we confess our sins, He is faithful and just to forgive us our sins and to cleanse us from all unrighteousness.”
@@gradymilholen9979I mean this in the nicest way….. spread the gospel in places on the internet that really need it. This video may be a little hard to get people to be saved as most of us probably are. All love ❤
I'm really trying really hard to stay away from porn. I know I use it a coping mechanism to ignore my stress and pain. I am choosing and declaring freedom. I really want to change. Whoever reads this plz pray for me. I know I can do it, but it's going be hard. No pain no gain
Some thing I've been using is something called the 5 wall method which is -#1: The wall of Routine - essentially stay busy to the point where you're not stressing yourself out but preoccupying your mind to prevent those thoughts from happening. plan your day out #2: The wall of Reaffirmation - what is your why? why do you want to overcome this? if you your why dont make you cry then why try. make sure your reason for overcoming this is as impenetrable as possible #3: The wall of exercise - if you are zonked out at the end of the day your priority is going to be recovery, sleep, food and water. not the instagram models on your phone #4: The wall of escape - if you feel like the sin is going to overpower you, leave that area of temptation and pray, change your surroundings to reground yourself #5: The wall of blockers - put up blockers on your phone or computer to stop you from going to those sites, make it as difficult as possible to commit the sin so it seems less appealing another tip would be putting self condemning consequences if you do it. Read a chapter or two of a book, do 30 mins of leg exercises, delete or restrict your apps for 48 hours things like that. Hoping for the best! Stay strong in the Lord and God bless
@kameronpowell2465 fat-sage means that normal is what society thinks is moral. The absolute standard of morality is something separate and that is what is determined by God.
Honestly, on the reasons why i have decided to stop is simply due to the fact that i was getting tired of asking for forgiveness for the same thing over and over again and feeling disgusted about myself. Yes, God will forgive you and each waking day you are granted is a chance to repent and change direction. However, no matter how much He will forgive us, something needs to tchange inside of us. I believe we need to be able to recognize those things what triggers us to fall or at brings to the edge of the cliff and pray on that. That's my opinion on that matter.
The key to overcoming sexual sin is focusing on God. When we push ourselves to stop doing the act, we lose the power of the Holy Spirit because we don’t lean on Gods strength to overcome it. Actively feeling the temptation and turning to God in that very hopeless-feeling moment, is how we COMPLETELY RELY on God. To feel powerless is how God can be the power in our life. We learn on ourselves to overcome the burden when we try to stop it alone and relying on ourselves to end the cycle/habit. We have already see that relying on ourselves to overcome this has shown over and over we can’t do it alone. But the enemy convinces us over and over that if we try again we can. But we need God. If you keep looking at God, love will grow. That love turns into respect and trust. The respect and trust you have with God through love will be greater than any feeling of temptation. It’s about loving God so much you slowly stop being able to tolerate the si, not about whether you have the power alone to stop yourself. God bless❤️ this helped me over come sexual sin when I stumble.
I agree with you completely. One thing that can help with giving up and giving it to God is by making yourself overly busy in the church. Do everything that they offer. Work as much as you can, study as much as you can. I have benefitted from not doing the things I enjoy doing and instead replacing a lot of my time in the word, talking to people at church or outside of church, prayer, working, studying, working out, bulk eating, etc. Got to a point where I’m too busy to watch porn or masturbate. When I do have that free time would I rather waste it on stuff I hate or watch an episode of the walking dead which I really enjoy? You have to replace unhealthy habits with good ones, God has given us so many tools and yet we refuse to pick up the hammer. I only finally gave my whole life up to God this past July and I used to struggle with sexual sin horribly. For 8 weeks God made my life so much easier. I didn’t fall once, that is the longest I’ve ever gone without falling to temptation, and there were temptations in that time period. October wasn’t kind to me, I fell quite a few times but never like how it used to be. I’d do it about 6-9 times a week before, it turned into like 6 that whole month. I had to put in more restrictions in my life and I’m back on track, but it’s about realizing I can’t do this by myself. God gave me the tools, I just kept forgetting, I had to keep repenting and picking up the tools. (One tool that he’s given me is a community at church, I’ve talked to a lot of people in my inner circle, outer circle, and mentors know about what I struggle with) just reached 3 weeks again, there have been temptations but I just don’t want to anymore. I’m too busy and too many things I want to do take priority. Plus I don’t want to do it. I bet I’ll fail again but it’s how God picks up the hammer for you not how you drop it. I gave up on believing I can use the hammer by myself. God sets my path and I follow it to the nail, my life for His, my master, his doulas. I’m human and I’ll continue to repent for my sins, the ones that I’ll commit when I refuse to think, I’ve recently found a new sin that I’ve been struggling with and it’s my crude jokes. I never cuss, but my jokes can often be inappropriate so I’ve been trying to penetrate how I speak. Always a way to grow, we’re not Jesus but we can try to live more and more like him every day.
JLY! Romans 10:9 “If you declare with your mouth “Jesus is Lord” and if you believe in your heart that God raised Jesus from death, then you will be saved.” Love your neighbor- love your enemies! JESUS IS THE ONLY WAY!! God is with you no matter where you are!!! Repent (completely turn away from your ways/sins-turn 180 degrees from your old ways), Declare Jesus as Lord of YOUR LIFE, Believe in Christ as THE MESSIAH and that GOD RAISED JESUS from DEATH!!!! Jesus Loves You!!! 1 John 1:9 “If we confess our sins, He is faithful and just to forgive us our sins and to cleanse us from all unrighteousness.”
I started looking at the people in porn as if they were friends, if I had to eat with them the next day. I thought about the fact they had bills, a family and probably multiple drug addictions to saturate the spiritual pain. It helped a lot in quitting all pornographic content. It almost feels like I'm abusing the people by thinking of them in a sexual pretense. Invading a private, sacred moment.
My sensitivity to sexual sin has been really off. I've had premarital sex that I justified because it was monogamous, and actually didn't think twice about (or biblically about). When I did focus in and stopped fornicating with a partner, for a time I still masterbated--thinking it wasn't sexual sin/sexually immoral. But I got deeper into the word of God and the pertinent Scriptures: Only the marriage bed is undefiled. Now, as I am never married, I can say the I have over two decades of celibacy, in obedience to the Lord. We talk a lot about lgbtq (and legitimately so) but also, no fornicatir shall inherit the kingdom of heaven either. I praise God that the power of His Holy Spirit has made abstinance easy and natural for me. I'm proud and blessed to have and exhibit self control. Our God is indeed great! 🙌
I've lived a very similar life, my girlfriend and I chose celibacy over a year ago. Up til recently I struggled heavily with porn, I'm finally at a point in my life where I could feel enough was enough. Making both of those choices has taken such a huge weight off my shoulders, I feel free in the blood even more so now. My girlfriend and I relationship with God and with each other has also benefited greatly. I say all this to say I love hearing these testimonies. I think more people need to hear about sexual purity, I encourage to continue to share, sister! I pray God continues to bless you!
It's much easier to avoid temptation than to resit it. It is probably unwise to put yourself in situations that you know will bring temptation just because you think you can overcome it. The fool relies on his own strength, the wise man finds his strength in God.
Perfect timing. It seems like I cannot win this battle. I've been praying and still fall short. I've made it a month at most and I'm in my mid thirties. Even when I resist, I get attacked in dreams. I know lust is one of the seven deadly sins. I really need delivered from this. Thank you for your content.
Ofc u cannot win. Ur supposed to flee, what make u think u, slave to sin by ur own can fight and win against it. I think u need to repent of that mind state, that’s prob why u ain’t walking in freedom. If u saved , u free ; now seek to walk by this graceful freedom by being led by peace
The Bible says “Run from sexual sin! No other sin so clearly affects the body as this one does. For sexual immorality is a sin against your own body. Don’t you realize that your body is the temple of the Holy Spirit, who lives in you and was given to you by God? You do not belong to yourself, for God bought you with a high price. So you must honor God with your body.” 1 Corinthians 6:18-20 NLT Don’t even get into the fighting ring with lust. Get out of there don’t entertain the thought of lust pray it away. Jesus in the beatitudes explicitly let’s us know the dangers of messing with lust for example he says “You have heard the commandment that says, ‘You must not commit adultery.’ But I say, anyone who even looks at a woman with lust has already committed adultery with her in his heart.” Matthew 5:27-28 NLT He says this because he knows that sin is first birthed in the mind. He knows that before sin is done physically it is done mentally. He knows that before lustful sin is committed, it is first entertained in the mind. That is why he says, “…anyone who even looks at a woman with lust has already committed adultery with her in his heart.” Matthew 5:28 So how can we fight lust? Well first of all we don’t. we try to flee. But if we ever find ourselves very easily tempted in social media like instagram or tiktok. Jesus commands us this “And if your hand-even your stronger hand-causes you to sin, cut it off and throw it away. It is better for you to lose one part of your body than for your whole body to be thrown into hell.” Matthew 5:30 NLT If social media becomes a place of overwhelming temptation. Cut. It. Off. If you have a girlfriend who entices you. Cut. Her. Off. If social gatherings and places entice you with explicit images.cut. That. Off. If movies or tv shows entice you as well.cut.it.off And look this is gonna hurt. It will. As followers of Christ things like these will not come easy because in our flesh it has been all we’ve ever know but we can hold on to a hope that whatever we face the Bible says in 1 Corinthians 10:13 “The temptations in your life are no different from what others experience. And God is faithful. He will not allow the temptation to be more than you can stand. When you are tempted, he will show you a way out so that you can endure.“ So even if the temptation to live in your old ways comes back. We know that God is ALWAYS faithful to give us a way out of that temptation. And know even if you find yourself half porn video in God is still faithful to lead you out of it and into his arms. Just know this that even if you were to fall God is always faithful to restore our souls and heal us and bring us peace For even if we are unfaithful, He remains faithful 2 Timothy 2:13 And “Even when I walk through the darkest valley, I will not be afraid, for you are close beside me. Your rod and your staff protect and comfort me.” Psalms 23:4 NLT Want to walk in the freedom God has called you to live in? Read Galatians and understand it and study it throughly. And over all things get to know God please. please read your Bible get to know who God is.
I’m literally in the same situation and also in my mid 30s. What has finally worked for me is praying out loud in Jesus name against the spirit of lust (etc) whenever I feel a certain way. I use to have to do it often now just only once in a while praise JESUS. It is amazing because Ive been suffering with this sin since I was a child.
A verse I frequently pray when in tempted is Psalm 19:14- “Let the words of my mouth and the meditation of my heart be acceptable in your sight, O Lord, my rock and my redeemer.”
i needed this! it’s so easy to get away with lust as a woman because it’s so normalized. i’ve never been challenged about fantasizing or lusting after men until i started really following Jesus and surrounding myself with friends who sharpen me. i struggled with sexual sin my whole life before i knew Jesus and now im unlearning those patterns and coming into the light. thank you for bringing awareness to this and this conviction! the holy spirit struck me with your words and you are so anointed! tysm!
I hope it aint personal but for women is there things you see on the internet everyday that cause you to stumble because we hear alot how men are stumbling because in secular world women can wear immodest clothing showing cleavage do sexual things etc and that sort but for women is it like seeing shirtless guys or seeing muscles or even heard about wearing tight jeans or trousers because i know christian male content creators who do that and they getting rebuked does this cause you to stumble I want to know so i can further help and chasten not causing our sisters to stumble
Wow. I needed to hear this today. I've been de-sensitized to sexual sin by consuming things that have gradually shifted my eyes away from God and onto the things of the world. God I'm sorry, please help heal my brain.
I’ll pray for you man. Just remember, God always loves you no matter what you do. The same thing has happened to me. I’ve let a ton of discipline down and I’m currently reaping what I sowed. Stay positive and commit yourself to Jesus daily! God bless you dude!
Hi everyone. I’m Isaac, i’m 21 years old and I’ve been struggling with a porn addiction since i was 14. I really need an accountability partner on Covenant eyes, because I live alone and don’t have any friends. God Bless you all ❤
I’m Mexican and I thought the analogy was good! Mexican grandmas do NOT get burned, they flip tortillas and food and don’t flinch. They also don’t miss when they throw a chancla.
wake up!! we are about to enter tribulation and the Christian church has completely mislead you, you need to repent so God doesn't pour his wrath out on you we are required to keep the Sabbath (Isaiah 56, acts 13:42-44) and to abstain from pork shrimp shellfish (Isaiah 66, acts 15) Paul specified in Galatians 3:19 that sacrificial law ended meaning we are still bound by the holy covenants we still have to keep the ten commandments Matthew 5:19 in Ephesians 2:12-13 it says we are grafted into Israel meaning the prophecy and covenants given to Israel still apply to us and Isaiah 11:11-13 says that you are apart of the lost sheep of Israel christmas easter halloween are unbiblical idolatry, christ wasn't even born in December and these celebrations come from paganism such as yule, saturnalia and ishtar The trinity is an unbiblical idolatrous doctrine (numbers 23:19, mark 10:18, Matthew 26:39) the messiah's name is Yeshua not Jesus read John 5:42-43 about this
He's so right. Before I started intentionally connecting with Jesus, I checked guys out, wore sexy clothes, etc., and saw no issue since they weren't at the extreme levels. Then I started my relationship with Jesus, and my eyes suddenly opened. It was so hard for a long time, but I kept surrendering and submitting the problem to God. Today, I can genuinely say that I've had a complete mind reset (it's so beautiful; I actually feel innocent again like when I was a kid😊), and my struggles are pretty much gone.
I opened RUclips not even trying to come to this video but I really needed this. Sometimes I try to consume things that actually harm me like seeing women in not much clothing, and look past it, or watch things that can trigger me, I learned I need to cut some things off, and avoid anything that can tempt me at all, and just being honest with my self, glorifying God with my body. The word also does say if you have doubts of anything but still do it, it is sin (Romans 14:23) We all need strength from God 💯
We often forget how important the media we consume is and how close it can be drawn to food. Let's cleanse our palettes as followers of God and think of what is Goos, righteous, and true!
It's especially hard when the "food" was force fed to you lol. When I was young I was s3xually 4bused, before I even knew what s3x was. So my first exposure was violent, painful, etc. I gained hypers3xuality from this expirience as I was growing up, I thought my only value was in what i could physically do for a partner. Many guys took advantage of that, especially grown men on the internet. My childhood had completely skewed my idea of love and s3x, and when I was a teen and discovered p0rn, I gravitated towards the taboo, pretty extreme videos because they were so reminiscent of my idea of s3x. All of this completely messed with my later relationships and now that I've been recently married I'm struggling to learn what real love is, and how everything works.
@@_m4r1ss4_9im glad you are okay now, and im sorry that that happened to you. traumatic experiences will desensitize you to a certain thing and it can be very difficult to get away from that separation you faced. just never doubt all things are possible w the hands of God, you can be delivered . it feels impossible but i pray that you will build a new life for yourself that you feel safe in, wherever you are in life and whatever beliefs, lifestyle and connections you have. God bless you girl🙏🤍
One of the hardest things for me to admit to myself is that “I can’t handle this” whether it’s working on a project, dealing with my mental health, or especially lust. It feels like I’m a failure of a follower or that I’m weak if I can’t keep myself disciplined and handle this temptation as it comes up. That’s another way the enemy gets us to leave God out of our situation because we think we should be able to handle things on our own. It’s not true, and it’s also not expected of us. We are not letting God down by admitting we can’t handle something on our own, if anything it’s actually the first step to conquering our battles.
Amen! This has been very helpful for me. Social media has been getting worse in pushing sexuality to the point where sexual ads are appearing in Facebook and even RUclips. I pray that the Heavenly Father would re-sensitize me and steers me away from the sexual temptations.
I read Proverbs 7 and 8 yesterday and i actually meditated on Chapter 7 and thought about how i am always putting myself in the position where i have to sin because of boredom. I prayed about it and asked God show me clarity and give me discernment on the issue. Your video just popped up on my feed for some reason and i am grateful that i got to see it after yesterday’s bible reading, it feels like God answered my prayer
I've been struggling with this addiction since the age of 15 & the longest i could go without it was about 6 months.. I was born with Spina Bifida & been struggling with my health ever since being in & out of hospitals.. Also, i haven't been in a relationship or marriage bc of this disease & the shame that comes with it & i'm over 30 so quite frustrated about it as you can imagine. Prayers are much appreciated!🙏🏻
like many others in this comment section, i just this morning prayed for light and for help. i was having a terrible morning with nothing but stress and this is what i see when i sit down and decompress and am READY to receive the help i asked for. God is so Good.
That analogy with the heat on the stove really hit home for me. Let’s get sensitive to spiritual heat again guys. Praying for you all. We’ve got this 🙏
This popped up on my feed. 10 minutes before I was crying on the ground in my room. Me and my girlfriend broke up. I struggled with sexual sins and desires for so long. I’m 16 almost 17. I’ve struggled with it for at least 6 years now. It’s been a incredibly hard thing for me. I overcame my desires for the most part. It got so much better. The other day she was sleeping, I wasn’t aware at first but then was and I still touched her in a way no one should ever touch a woman other than their wife especially in that state. I took advantage of her. I love her, and hate what I did. It was so wrong. She knows about it. And I just pray to god to forgive me for what I did to her, a girl I love so much that I took advantage of. I pray that she forgives me someday and I can have another chance with her. We both have our issues, and they need to be dealt with. I believe this video was God sent. Perfect timing. God forgives and loves no matter what. And he will always help us to walk back to him where he holds his arms wide open. Waiting for us. Idk why but I felt the need to say this. I needed to get it all out now.
Man i feel u. Ive been struggling with porn for 5 years and sexual sin in general since i was 5. Ik its crazy but its genuinely so insane im embarrassed to explain it. I hope ur doing well now. Im also struggling with smth similar. Im 14 almost 15 and have a gf and i watch porn almost everyday. I feel like i cant forgive myself for what ive done. I feel like she doesn't deserve me at all. She's such a nice person and i love her. I hope God helps both of us and builds us both at our own pace. God be with u mate.
I think it’s so courageous for both of you to not only realize what you need to work on but take the step to invite God to change your heart. Remember you are already forgiven and you need to learn to forgive yourself. Continue to discipline yourself in the word and in the spirit and you will feel as free as you are. God bless you guys and I will be praying for you so that you may receive that guidance and support.
@@johnnyonsy1516 keep working at it man. Everyone is a sinner. Everyone falls short. Ask for forgiveness from God and then learn to forgive yourself. It’s so hard. Ik it is. Trust me, I understand. Just keep placing your trust In him and let him lead you out of these sins and closer to him. You are so loved man and so important, keep working at it. God is with you and he loves you and forgives. Remember it.
@@mariabustamante8150 thank you so much for the prayers. God is working in my heart and I am already doing so much better. I pray this other young man can be changed by the lord as well.
Wow i closed my bible before watching this thinking about all the things i do that i know is wrong but im always making excuses. God led me to this video. Thank you.
We share the same first name, and when I saw you say our name, that really brought my attention in. This is something I’ve needed to hear and haven’t been able to put into words. Thanks man!
I prayed last night to find a video that would open my eyes to the destruction lust brings. I watched a few videos and they repeated things I already knew so I went to bed. This morning, this video was at the top of my recommended. Thank you so much
I’ve been praying to God for help on this exact issue and found this video on my fyp today. This is literally exactly what I needed to hear. It’s almost scary how directly God helps us. God put you in my life. Thank you so much! Hallelujah!
Love the video. Someone once told me, in relation to porn that you trust yourself to much. If you know at night you get craving put your phone in a different room, avoid that spiritual battle rather than fighting it as you scroll tik tok before bed
Bro, we have the same name.The topic, this is a word to keep to purity for me. I had real break through last week with this topic. Its really different now. And love what you jave said, praise the Lord! I'ma keep going more to detoxifying and loving true craving of holiness! Thank you brother.
Also had a thought today. Why is it that we consent to giving life energy spent towards fake stories, that, enthrall, enamor, emotionally move, lifestyle inspire, soul train/ manipulate, etc. Its always come to my mind that when watching a movie you are in some way approving, but it's a matter of the heart; how one in heart is with it. Now in contrast, If I were to ask someone if they wanted to hear a fake story, most likely they would say no. Really depends on the person though... I don't know for sure. But I suspect that. If true, then that shows how culture has had a great influence on the person. Because they'll receive a false story if you have credentials to make a movie, but not if someone goes to tell you in person... Does this idea make sense?
@@isaactamplin8905The Holy Spirit has turned my away from secular values and themes.. I cringe a lot! I don't crave such content.. Movies, Netflix, video games like GTA
Thank you for your great advice. I have been struggling with lust and the dangers of becoming too compliant with everything around us. I understand and am being led by the Holy Spirit through my prayers and am thankful it is not by my own strength but Christ’s that I have been able to get better. If any of you are going through similar troubles due to circumstances out of your control, do not fear and go to God in prayer. Even if it is a little prayer each day, God will build you up and prepare you for what comes at you. He who is in you is greater than he who is in the world. Have a great a day everyone and don’t give up even when you fail. God is with you and His love is greater than your failures.
This was amazing really opened up my eyes to the things I have seriously overlooked. No matter the type of media I should be considerate of what I'm intaking and evaluating why exactly am I watching or doing this. Great Video!
For the past few days I’ve been thinking a lot on how I’ve been affected by sexual content, so I was really grateful when this video popped up in my recommended. Thank you!
More people need to see this Thank you for making this I could not put this better without offending someone, clearly did a good job choosing your words carefully
Whenever I struggled with this I used to make excuses to watch social media for a long time but in the back of my mind I knew what I was hoping to finally stumble upon
Thank you I needed this I have been jumping into sexual things in a mental way my thoughts go there and I end up taking the road that is close to the problem Thanks you soo much and I will be implementing it
I needed this. I've been stumbling a lot in terms of sexual immorality and I have been becoming desensitized to the harmful nature of the lifestyle I've been leading. Bless the Lord for showing me this video when He did- before I was really far gone. Your analogy about the poisonous fish really hit it home for me. Chi-miigwetch.
so good!! thanking God i stumbled across this video - it’s so enjoyable and refreshing to see straightforward content without the entertainment, without the click bait, and just receive what God wants to reveal to us more and more every day through social media 🙏 thank you!
Thank you brother for putting this out here bcus oftentimes I have been called a prude and religious or even judgmental for calling things out or turning the TV. But as one draws closer to the Lord you come to understand why God says ‘be ye Holy for I Am Holy.’ Or even when God tells Moses to remove his shoes as he stands on Holy ground. We have so many layers of filth to remove we have to want to be yielding to let the Holy Spirit work in removing & cleansing us through n thru. 🙌💯
from one isaac to another, great video man. thank the Lord for what you are doing and the pedestal He's given you. this is super encouraging, i would argue in any situation of the world bogging down on our relationship with God.
JLY! Romans 10:9 “If you declare with your mouth “Jesus is Lord” and if you believe in your heart that God raised Jesus from death, then you will be saved.” Love your neighbor- love your enemies! JESUS IS THE ONLY WAY!! God is with you no matter where you are!!! Repent (completely turn away from your ways/sins-turn 180 degrees from your old ways), Declare Jesus as Lord of YOUR LIFE, Believe in Christ as THE MESSIAH and that GOD RAISED JESUS from DEATH!!!! Jesus Loves You!!! 1 John 1:9 “If we confess our sins, He is faithful and just to forgive us our sins and to cleanse us from all unrighteousness.”
Hey I want to thank you for your video man, I’ve been stressing and struggling about my reality and relationship with God that I have completely left what true Christianity is in my life. And thank God through Christ because of you Isaac that I’m able to be strengthened and illuminated
You were one of the people who GOD used to help me in the early years of my transformation I'm so grateful to see you like that!And by the way you're a handsome man with beautiful eyes created in GOD'S image! JESUS loves you so much!!❤️✝️
Lowering your gaze helps deeply. I am a Muslim, but our brothers and sisters in Christ are one with the tradition that harmonizes us all, humanity. This is something that I have been doing which curbs the lust, the lust of all the flesh. Cars that drive by, I used to desire that in which god has not provided. Lowering my gaze will help us all in gaining back our sensitivities that the lord and savior has granted us with. Thank you brother, big love for you!!❤
I have struggled to get away from this normalization of this sinful, fleshy desire. I have completely deleted all social media with the exception of RUclips. I’m glad I didn’t delete it yet. I needed this.
My marriage is very strained right now…I’ve been off porn for years but I have allowed myself to linger on social media too long and it has cultivated an appetite my wife cannot handle. To the point where any advance towards her locks her out…I’m struggling. Praying for healing. Loved this video bro. Thank you!
One of the best affirmations I’ve ever used in prayer when lust threatens to overtake me:
“Lord, Your pleasure is my greatest delight.”
And if it isn’t your greatest delight, confess that to God:
“Lord, Your pleasure has not been my greatest delight, but I know that it should be, and I am asking You to change my heart and mind to please You.”
It’s simple, easy to remember, and very powerful.
Thank you for sharing brother, God bless!
Thank you 🙌🏾❤️🙏🏾💯
Thank you
I am so doing this
Love this bro
I pray that in 2025, none of us will be bound by this addiction. We are not slaves to sin, but sons of God, called to live in freedom and purpose.
Amen Amen,In Jesus Christ' name,Amen
then why cant i break it im stuck
@@nikolaiosborn1710 You definitely can't break it,it's never been up to you alone.Allow Jesus to help, don't depend on your strength you will fail.Sometimes redemption isn't instant, but as a saved child of God,Even when you fail, declare that You are the righteousness of God through Christ.
@@nikolaiosborn1710 Jesus said, "What is impossible with man is possible with God." That’s a powerful reminder that no matter how strong the temptation, God’s strength is greater. Make prayer a daily habit-especially in moments of temptation. When you're struggling, drop to your knees and ask God for help. Lust is one of those temptations we’re told to flee, not fight. When the urge hits, don’t stay and battle it-run to God instead. Every time you're tempted to watch porn, you'll likely hear that small voice inside saying, "This is wrong." But we often ignore it for the sake of instant gratification. It's time to listen to the Holy Spirit, take action, and choose freedom. That’s the only way to truly break free.
May God bless you with his strength and power in times of testing.
amen
I've been praying for God to show me the sins I've overlooked, and today, I watched this video, and a million memories came flooding back. Thank you, Jesus, for being merciful to me.
I am not a Christian still I love his videos
It's Jesus calling you.😍
@JesusChristismyLord316so true to even everybody!❤😊
It’s not a sin to lust. It’s just basic human biology. Stop beating yourself down for it
I just want to say that it’s not something YOU can come over on your own. I struggled with pornography for years, but I only ever overcame it when I stopped trying to do it in my own strength and started doing it through Gods. On our own we our weak but with God I finally strong. He is your father and wants to help, we just have to ask. Fill yourself up with his strength by spending time with him in all you do and be set free by his love. Stop running away from sin and start running towards God. I love you Brother god bless you and may you find peace in his arms, talk to him, be with him, ask him. I will be praying for you and I am proud of you. He is too :)
“What you consume is training your appetite to what you want more of” cmon bro. That’s powerful.
Stop being stupid,if you consume something more than it is recommended it is going to turn into poison

I'm really trying really hard to stay away from porn. I know I use it a coping mechanism to ignore my stress and pain. I am choosing and declaring freedom. I really want to change. Whoever reads this plz pray for me. I know I can do it, but it's going be hard. No pain no gain
Focus on jesus the most
Will be praying for you, God bless you 🙏🏼
@JesusChristismyLord316 I don't have anyone who's available like that. Especially not late at night when the urge hits.
Praying right now!
Some thing I've been using is something called the 5 wall method which is
-#1: The wall of Routine - essentially stay busy to the point where you're not stressing yourself out but preoccupying your mind to prevent those thoughts from happening. plan your day out
#2: The wall of Reaffirmation - what is your why? why do you want to overcome this? if you your why dont make you cry then why try. make sure your reason for overcoming this is as impenetrable as possible
#3: The wall of exercise - if you are zonked out at the end of the day your priority is going to be recovery, sleep, food and water. not the instagram models on your phone
#4: The wall of escape - if you feel like the sin is going to overpower you, leave that area of temptation and pray, change your surroundings to reground yourself
#5: The wall of blockers - put up blockers on your phone or computer to stop you from going to those sites, make it as difficult as possible to commit the sin so it seems less appealing
another tip would be putting self condemning consequences if you do it. Read a chapter or two of a book, do 30 mins of leg exercises, delete or restrict your apps for 48 hours things like that. Hoping for the best! Stay strong in the Lord and God bless
“Normal doesn’t mean good. Normal doesn’t mean moral.” ❤
Actually, normal does mean moral. like by the definition of moral, it's society that chooses.
@ Christian’s live by God’s definition of good and moral.
@@fat-sageNO it’s GOD that chooses
@kameronpowell2465 fat-sage means that normal is what society thinks is moral. The absolute standard of morality is something separate and that is what is determined by God.
Honestly, on the reasons why i have decided to stop is simply due to the fact that i was getting tired of asking for forgiveness for the same thing over and over again and feeling disgusted about myself. Yes, God will forgive you and each waking day you are granted is a chance to repent and change direction. However, no matter how much He will forgive us, something needs to tchange inside of us. I believe we need to be able to recognize those things what triggers us to fall or at brings to the edge of the cliff and pray on that. That's my opinion on that matter.
Asking for forgiveness doesn’t help you repent. Repent means a changed mind.
@@justice8718 And i am well aware of that. Hence why i said something needs to change. Therefore...repentance ^^
Thank you bro this is how I feel I did it for almost a week now and I keeping saking for forgiveness and I keep failing thank you man ✝️
I'm in the exact same boat
How does one go about repenting? Like actual repentance? I'm in the deepest hole you can imagine and I need to get out before it's too late
The key to overcoming sexual sin is focusing on God. When we push ourselves to stop doing the act, we lose the power of the Holy Spirit because we don’t lean on Gods strength to overcome it. Actively feeling the temptation and turning to God in that very hopeless-feeling moment, is how we COMPLETELY RELY on God. To feel powerless is how God can be the power in our life.
We learn on ourselves to overcome the burden when we try to stop it alone and relying on ourselves to end the cycle/habit.
We have already see that relying on ourselves to overcome this has shown over and over we can’t do it alone. But the enemy convinces us over and over that if we try again we can.
But we need God.
If you keep looking at God, love will grow. That love turns into respect and trust. The respect and trust you have with God through love will be greater than any feeling of temptation.
It’s about loving God so much you slowly stop being able to tolerate the si, not about whether you have the power alone to stop yourself.
God bless❤️ this helped me over come sexual sin when I stumble.
I agree with you completely. One thing that can help with giving up and giving it to God is by making yourself overly busy in the church. Do everything that they offer. Work as much as you can, study as much as you can. I have benefitted from not doing the things I enjoy doing and instead replacing a lot of my time in the word, talking to people at church or outside of church, prayer, working, studying, working out, bulk eating, etc.
Got to a point where I’m too busy to watch porn or masturbate. When I do have that free time would I rather waste it on stuff I hate or watch an episode of the walking dead which I really enjoy? You have to replace unhealthy habits with good ones, God has given us so many tools and yet we refuse to pick up the hammer.
I only finally gave my whole life up to God this past July and I used to struggle with sexual sin horribly. For 8 weeks God made my life so much easier. I didn’t fall once, that is the longest I’ve ever gone without falling to temptation, and there were temptations in that time period. October wasn’t kind to me, I fell quite a few times but never like how it used to be. I’d do it about 6-9 times a week before, it turned into like 6 that whole month. I had to put in more restrictions in my life and I’m back on track, but it’s about realizing I can’t do this by myself. God gave me the tools, I just kept forgetting, I had to keep repenting and picking up the tools. (One tool that he’s given me is a community at church, I’ve talked to a lot of people in my inner circle, outer circle, and mentors know about what I struggle with) just reached 3 weeks again, there have been temptations but I just don’t want to anymore. I’m too busy and too many things I want to do take priority. Plus I don’t want to do it. I bet I’ll fail again but it’s how God picks up the hammer for you not how you drop it. I gave up on believing I can use the hammer by myself. God sets my path and I follow it to the nail, my life for His, my master, his doulas. I’m human and I’ll continue to repent for my sins, the ones that I’ll commit when I refuse to think, I’ve recently found a new sin that I’ve been struggling with and it’s my crude jokes. I never cuss, but my jokes can often be inappropriate so I’ve been trying to penetrate how I speak. Always a way to grow, we’re not Jesus but we can try to live more and more like him every day.
This is gold
This is absolutely what I needed thank you so much

I started looking at the people in porn as if they were friends, if I had to eat with them the next day. I thought about the fact they had bills, a family and probably multiple drug addictions to saturate the spiritual pain. It helped a lot in quitting all pornographic content. It almost feels like I'm abusing the people by thinking of them in a sexual pretense. Invading a private, sacred moment.
That is really smart!
This is beautiful
Thank you bro, noted
Thanks for the perspective shift, well said
My sensitivity to sexual sin has been really off. I've had premarital sex that I justified because it was monogamous, and actually didn't think twice about (or biblically about). When I did focus in and stopped fornicating with a partner, for a time I still masterbated--thinking it wasn't sexual sin/sexually immoral. But I got deeper into the word of God and the pertinent Scriptures: Only the marriage bed is undefiled. Now, as I am never married, I can say the I have over two decades of celibacy, in obedience to the Lord. We talk a lot about lgbtq (and legitimately so) but also, no fornicatir shall inherit the kingdom of heaven either. I praise God that the power of His Holy Spirit has made abstinance easy and natural for me. I'm proud and blessed to have and exhibit self control. Our God is indeed great! 🙌
I've lived a very similar life, my girlfriend and I chose celibacy over a year ago. Up til recently I struggled heavily with porn, I'm finally at a point in my life where I could feel enough was enough. Making both of those choices has taken such a huge weight off my shoulders, I feel free in the blood even more so now. My girlfriend and I relationship with God and with each other has also benefited greatly. I say all this to say I love hearing these testimonies. I think more people need to hear about sexual purity, I encourage to continue to share, sister! I pray God continues to bless you!
Praise Jesus for both testimonies.
Romans 4:4-5

That last thought is so good, “it’s not about just trying to be a good person, it’s about wanting to honor God” 🙏🔥
It's much easier to avoid temptation than to resit it. It is probably unwise to put yourself in situations that you know will bring temptation just because you think you can overcome it. The fool relies on his own strength, the wise man finds his strength in God.
Hey that’s a really good way of saying it! Thanks man!
Perfect timing. It seems like I cannot win this battle. I've been praying and still fall short. I've made it a month at most and I'm in my mid thirties. Even when I resist, I get attacked in dreams. I know lust is one of the seven deadly sins. I really need delivered from this. Thank you for your content.
Ofc u cannot win. Ur supposed to flee, what make u think u, slave to sin by ur own can fight and win against it. I think u need to repent of that mind state, that’s prob why u ain’t walking in freedom. If u saved , u free ; now seek to walk by this graceful freedom by being led by peace
The Bible says “Run from sexual sin! No other sin so clearly affects the body as this one does. For sexual immorality is a sin against your own body. Don’t you realize that your body is the temple of the Holy Spirit, who lives in you and was given to you by God? You do not belong to yourself, for God bought you with a high price. So you must honor God with your body.”
1 Corinthians 6:18-20 NLT
Don’t even get into the fighting ring with lust. Get out of there don’t entertain the thought of lust pray it away.
Jesus in the beatitudes explicitly let’s us know the dangers of messing with lust for example he says “You have heard the commandment that says, ‘You must not commit adultery.’ But I say, anyone who even looks at a woman with lust has already committed adultery with her in his heart.”
Matthew 5:27-28 NLT
He says this because he knows that sin is first birthed in the mind. He knows that before sin is done physically it is done mentally. He knows that before lustful sin is committed, it is first entertained in the mind. That is why he says, “…anyone who even looks at a woman with lust has already committed adultery with her in his heart.”
Matthew 5:28
So how can we fight lust? Well first of all we don’t. we try to flee. But if we ever find ourselves very easily tempted in social media like instagram or tiktok. Jesus commands us this “And if your hand-even your stronger hand-causes you to sin, cut it off and throw it away. It is better for you to lose one part of your body than for your whole body to be thrown into hell.”
Matthew 5:30 NLT
If social media becomes a place of overwhelming temptation. Cut. It. Off.
If you have a girlfriend who entices you. Cut. Her. Off.
If social gatherings and places entice you with explicit images.cut. That. Off.
If movies or tv shows entice you as well.cut.it.off
And look this is gonna hurt. It will. As followers of Christ things like these will not come easy because in our flesh it has been all we’ve ever know but we can hold on to a hope that whatever we face the Bible says in 1 Corinthians 10:13
“The temptations in your life are no different from what others experience. And God is faithful. He will not allow the temptation to be more than you can stand. When you are tempted, he will show you a way out so that you can endure.“
So even if the temptation to live in your old ways comes back. We know that God is ALWAYS faithful to give us a way out of that temptation. And know even if you find yourself half porn video in God is still faithful to lead you out of it and into his arms.
Just know this that even if you were to fall God is always faithful to restore our souls and heal us and bring us peace
For even if we are unfaithful, He remains faithful 2 Timothy 2:13
And
“Even when I walk through the darkest valley, I will not be afraid, for you are close beside me. Your rod and your staff protect and comfort me.”
Psalms 23:4 NLT
Want to walk in the freedom God has called you to live in? Read Galatians and understand it and study it throughly.
And over all things get to know God please. please read your Bible get to know who God is.
@@Xasaltno Christian is a slave to sin
I’m literally in the same situation and also in my mid 30s. What has finally worked for me is praying out loud in Jesus name against the spirit of lust (etc) whenever I feel a certain way. I use to have to do it often now just only once in a while praise JESUS.
It is amazing because Ive been suffering with this sin since I was a child.
@ praise God!! I’m going to try praying out loud. 🙏 thank you. I’m gonna say a prayer for you. In Jesus mighty name.
A verse I frequently pray when in tempted is Psalm 19:14- “Let the words of my mouth and the meditation of my heart be acceptable in your sight, O Lord, my rock and my redeemer.”
i needed this! it’s so easy to get away with lust as a woman because it’s so normalized. i’ve never been challenged about fantasizing or lusting after men until i started really following Jesus and surrounding myself with friends who sharpen me. i struggled with sexual sin my whole life before i knew Jesus and now im unlearning those patterns and coming into the light. thank you for bringing awareness to this and this conviction! the holy spirit struck me with your words and you are so anointed! tysm!
I hope it aint personal but for women is there things you see on the internet everyday that cause you to stumble because we hear alot how men are stumbling because in secular world women can wear immodest clothing showing cleavage do sexual things etc and that sort but for women is it like seeing shirtless guys or seeing muscles or even heard about wearing tight jeans or trousers because i know christian male content creators who do that and they getting rebuked does this cause you to stumble
I want to know so i can further help and chasten not causing our sisters to stumble
Wow. I needed to hear this today. I've been de-sensitized to sexual sin by consuming things that have gradually shifted my eyes away from God and onto the things of the world. God I'm sorry, please help heal my brain.
I’ll pray for you man.
Just remember, God always loves you no matter what you do. The same thing has happened to me. I’ve let a ton of discipline down and I’m currently reaping what I sowed. Stay positive and commit yourself to Jesus daily!
God bless you dude!

I’m Mexican and I thought the analogy was good! Mexican grandmas do NOT get burned, they flip tortillas and food and don’t flinch. They also don’t miss when they throw a chancla.
wake up!! we are about to enter tribulation and the Christian church has completely mislead you, you need to repent so God doesn't pour his wrath out on you
we are required to keep the Sabbath (Isaiah 56, acts 13:42-44)
and to abstain from pork shrimp shellfish (Isaiah 66, acts 15)
Paul specified in Galatians 3:19 that sacrificial law ended meaning we are still bound by the holy covenants
we still have to keep the ten commandments Matthew 5:19
in Ephesians 2:12-13 it says we are grafted into Israel meaning the prophecy and covenants given to Israel still apply to us
and Isaiah 11:11-13 says that you are apart of the lost sheep of Israel
christmas easter halloween are unbiblical idolatry, christ wasn't even born in December and these celebrations come from paganism such as yule, saturnalia and ishtar
The trinity is an unbiblical idolatrous doctrine (numbers 23:19, mark 10:18, Matthew 26:39)
the messiah's name is Yeshua not Jesus read John 5:42-43 about this
He's so right. Before I started intentionally connecting with Jesus, I checked guys out, wore sexy clothes, etc., and saw no issue since they weren't at the extreme levels. Then I started my relationship with Jesus, and my eyes suddenly opened. It was so hard for a long time, but I kept surrendering and submitting the problem to God. Today, I can genuinely say that I've had a complete mind reset (it's so beautiful; I actually feel innocent again like when I was a kid😊), and my struggles are pretty much gone.
I know what you mean. Having a pure heart and mind is a priceless experience. God rewards us with peace when we choose His way
@samuelberges8745 so true
I opened RUclips not even trying to come to this video but I really needed this. Sometimes I try to consume things that actually harm me like seeing women in not much clothing, and look past it, or watch things that can trigger me, I learned I need to cut some things off, and avoid anything that can tempt me at all, and just being honest with my self, glorifying God with my body. The word also does say if you have doubts of anything but still do it, it is sin (Romans 14:23) We all need strength from God 💯
We often forget how important the media we consume is and how close it can be drawn to food. Let's cleanse our palettes as followers of God and think of what is Goos, righteous, and true!
It's especially hard when the "food" was force fed to you lol. When I was young I was s3xually 4bused, before I even knew what s3x was. So my first exposure was violent, painful, etc. I gained hypers3xuality from this expirience as I was growing up, I thought my only value was in what i could physically do for a partner. Many guys took advantage of that, especially grown men on the internet. My childhood had completely skewed my idea of love and s3x, and when I was a teen and discovered p0rn, I gravitated towards the taboo, pretty extreme videos because they were so reminiscent of my idea of s3x. All of this completely messed with my later relationships and now that I've been recently married I'm struggling to learn what real love is, and how everything works.
@@_m4r1ss4_9im glad you are okay now, and im sorry that that happened to you. traumatic experiences will desensitize you to a certain thing and it can be very difficult to get away from that separation you faced. just never doubt all things are possible w the hands of God, you can be delivered . it feels impossible but i pray that you will build a new life for yourself that you feel safe in, wherever you are in life and whatever beliefs, lifestyle and connections you have.

I prayed to God for forgiveness since I feel into sin today and this was an answer from God. Thank you brother, thank you!
God knew what I needed, perfect timing.
"What you consume is training your appetite to what you want more of" Amen!
One of the hardest things for me to admit to myself is that “I can’t handle this” whether it’s working on a project, dealing with my mental health, or especially lust. It feels like I’m a failure of a follower or that I’m weak if I can’t keep myself disciplined and handle this temptation as it comes up. That’s another way the enemy gets us to leave God out of our situation because we think we should be able to handle things on our own. It’s not true, and it’s also not expected of us. We are not letting God down by admitting we can’t handle something on our own, if anything it’s actually the first step to conquering our battles.
So true!!
This came to my youtube feed at the right time. I Honestly believe this was sent by God himself, I prayed and he answered

Amen! This has been very helpful for me. Social media has been getting worse in pushing sexuality to the point where sexual ads are appearing in Facebook and even RUclips. I pray that the Heavenly Father would re-sensitize me and steers me away from the sexual temptations.
I regained that sensitivity when I understood that it's as bad as murder

This popped up on my feed. 10 minutes before I was crying on the ground in my room. Me and my girlfriend broke up. I struggled with sexual sins and desires for so long. I’m 16 almost 17. I’ve struggled with it for at least 6 years now. It’s been a incredibly hard thing for me. I overcame my desires for the most part. It got so much better. The other day she was sleeping, I wasn’t aware at first but then was and I still touched her in a way no one should ever touch a woman other than their wife especially in that state. I took advantage of her. I love her, and hate what I did. It was so wrong. She knows about it. And I just pray to god to forgive me for what I did to her, a girl I love so much that I took advantage of. I pray that she forgives me someday and I can have another chance with her. We both have our issues, and they need to be dealt with. I believe this video was God sent. Perfect timing. God forgives and loves no matter what. And he will always help us to walk back to him where he holds his arms wide open. Waiting for us. Idk why but I felt the need to say this. I needed to get it all out now.
Man i feel u. Ive been struggling with porn for 5 years and sexual sin in general since i was 5. Ik its crazy but its genuinely so insane im embarrassed to explain it. I hope ur doing well now. Im also struggling with smth similar. Im 14 almost 15 and have a gf and i watch porn almost everyday. I feel like i cant forgive myself for what ive done. I feel like she doesn't deserve me at all. She's such a nice person and i love her. I hope God helps both of us and builds us both at our own pace. God be with u mate.
I think it’s so courageous for both of you to not only realize what you need to work on but take the step to invite God to change your heart. Remember you are already forgiven and you need to learn to forgive yourself. Continue to discipline yourself in the word and in the spirit and you will feel as free as you are. God bless you guys and I will be praying for you so that you may receive that guidance and support.

I prayed last night to find a video that would open my eyes to the destruction lust brings. I watched a few videos and they repeated things I already knew so I went to bed. This morning, this video was at the top of my recommended. Thank you so much
I’ve been praying to God for help on this exact issue and found this video on my fyp today. This is literally exactly what I needed to hear. It’s almost scary how directly God helps us. God put you in my life. Thank you so much! Hallelujah!
Love the video. Someone once told me, in relation to porn that you trust yourself to much. If you know at night you get craving put your phone in a different room, avoid that spiritual battle rather than fighting it as you scroll tik tok before bed
Bro, we have the same name.The topic, this is a word to keep to purity for me. I had real break through last week with this topic. Its really different now. And love what you jave said, praise the Lord! I'ma keep going more to detoxifying and loving true craving of holiness! Thank you brother.
Also had a thought today. Why is it that we consent to giving life energy spent towards fake stories, that, enthrall, enamor, emotionally move, lifestyle inspire, soul train/ manipulate, etc. Its always come to my mind that when watching a movie you are in some way approving, but it's a matter of the heart; how one in heart is with it.
Now in contrast, If I were to ask someone if they wanted to hear a fake story, most likely they would say no. Really depends on the person though... I don't know for sure. But I suspect that. If true, then that shows how culture has had a great influence on the person. Because they'll receive a false story if you have credentials to make a movie, but not if someone goes to tell you in person... Does this idea make sense?
@@isaactamplin8905The Holy Spirit has turned my away from secular values and themes.. I cringe a lot! I don't crave such content.. Movies, Netflix, video games like GTA
Thank you for your great advice. I have been struggling with lust and the dangers of becoming too compliant with everything around us. I understand and am being led by the Holy Spirit through my prayers and am thankful it is not by my own strength but Christ’s that I have been able to get better. If any of you are going through similar troubles due to circumstances out of your control, do not fear and go to God in prayer. Even if it is a little prayer each day, God will build you up and prepare you for what comes at you. He who is in you is greater than he who is in the world. Have a great a day everyone and don’t give up even when you fail. God is with you and His love is greater than your failures.
He’s freed me from lust. i was bound by an addiction and He freed me. i know He can do it for you too❤
He never lost His power
This was amazing really opened up my eyes to the things I have seriously overlooked. No matter the type of media I should be considerate of what I'm intaking and evaluating why exactly am I watching or doing this. Great Video!
this format suits me and my husband a lot, thank you so much
I really needed this right now. 🙏✝
Praying for you 🙏
For the past few days I’ve been thinking a lot on how I’ve been affected by sexual content, so I was really grateful when this video popped up in my recommended. Thank you!
This was Great. Stumbled on this page tonight randomly. Great Message. God is changing my heart everyday on this subject. 🤙🏻

Thank you for making this
I could not put this better without offending someone, clearly did a good job choosing your words carefully
Thank you for addressing this important issue. Prayer is essential
Thank you. Love these videos. Really help my walk
Whenever I struggled with this I used to make excuses to watch social media for a long time but in the back of my mind I knew what I was hoping to finally stumble upon
Simple words, simple actions. Got it! This has changed my view a lot, God bless everyone!
Thank you I needed this I have been jumping into sexual things in a mental way my thoughts go there and I end up taking the road that is close to the problem
Thanks you soo much and I will be implementing it
Great video, keep up the great works, God bless! I will definitely have to keep these in mind at all times.
AMEN BROTHER!!!!!! Thank you for speaking Truth in such a grace filled way!!!!!! 🙌🙌🙌
I needed this. I've been stumbling a lot in terms of sexual immorality and I have been becoming desensitized to the harmful nature of the lifestyle I've been leading. Bless the Lord for showing me this video when He did- before I was really far gone. Your analogy about the poisonous fish really hit it home for me. Chi-miigwetch.
The mexican grandma part is so true. Thank you for this, Amen!
so good!! thanking God i stumbled across this video - it’s so enjoyable and refreshing to see straightforward content without the entertainment, without the click bait, and just receive what God wants to reveal to us more and more every day through social media 🙏 thank you!
Bro I’m 14 and like I really appreciate how much this one video is going to forever help me in my life, thank you
Renew your mind replace lies with truth … covenant with one’s eyes 👀
Thank you brother for putting this out here bcus oftentimes I have been called a prude and religious or even judgmental for calling things out or turning the TV. But as one draws closer to the Lord you come to understand why God says ‘be ye Holy for I Am Holy.’ Or even when God tells Moses to remove his shoes as he stands on Holy ground. We have so many layers of filth to remove we have to want to be yielding to let the Holy Spirit work in removing & cleansing us through n thru. 🙌💯
Im blessed by this little podcast.
Thanks a lot. Really needed this. I'll keep praying for you
Changed my viewpoint so much. Thank you so so much for your greaceful words.
Thank you for speaking out on this 🙏🏼praying for you bro and your strength to continue in your growth in Christ 🙏🏼❤️God bless you
from one isaac to another, great video man. thank the Lord for what you are doing and the pedestal He's given you. this is super encouraging, i would argue in any situation of the world bogging down on our relationship with God.
🙏 This 👍 is 🙏 why 🙏 I'm 🙏 subbed 🙏 to 🙏 the 🙏 Daily 👍 Disciple 🙏 Thanks 🙏 👍🙏🙏🙏🙏🙏
THIS WAS SO GOOD! Very eye opening
I really needed this.Thank yyou
JLY! Romans 10:9 “If you declare with your mouth “Jesus is Lord” and if you believe in your heart that God raised Jesus from death, then you will be saved.”
Love your neighbor- love your enemies! JESUS IS THE ONLY WAY!! God is with you no matter where you are!!! Repent (completely turn away from your ways/sins-turn 180 degrees from your old ways), Declare Jesus as Lord of YOUR LIFE, Believe in Christ as THE MESSIAH and that GOD RAISED JESUS from DEATH!!!! Jesus Loves You!!!
1 John 1:9 “If we confess our sins, He is faithful and just to forgive us our sins and to cleanse us from all unrighteousness.”
Hey I want to thank you for your video man, I’ve been stressing and struggling about my reality and relationship with God that I have completely left what true Christianity is in my life. And thank God through Christ because of you Isaac that I’m able to be strengthened and illuminated
This is so good. I appreciate your bravery and honesty posting this! God bless.
This was amazing! I took notes and really thought about what you were saying. God bless you!
You were one of the people who GOD used to help me in the early years of my transformation I'm so grateful to see you like that!And by the way you're a handsome man with beautiful eyes created in GOD'S image! JESUS loves you so much!!❤️✝️
Wonderful video.I loved the analogies you used to bring the message home.God bless you!
Lowering your gaze helps deeply. I am a Muslim, but our brothers and sisters in Christ are one with the tradition that harmonizes us all, humanity. This is something that I have been doing which curbs the lust, the lust of all the flesh. Cars that drive by, I used to desire that in which god has not provided. Lowering my gaze will help us all in gaining back our sensitivities that the lord and savior has granted us with. Thank you brother, big love for you!!❤
I have struggled to get away from this normalization of this sinful, fleshy desire. I have completely deleted all social media with the exception of RUclips. I’m glad I didn’t delete it yet. I needed this.
Thank you for such a great video. It's great to get reminded about these things and also acknowledge why we do it.
Thanks man, that's a timely word for me.
As a healthcare worker, THANK YOU! The last 30 seconds are the best.
This honestly helped me out a lot, God Bless you
i like this analogy a lot
Thank you Lord for this video. You granted me clearity.
The processed sugar analogy is very nice, God bless you
My marriage is very strained right now…I’ve been off porn for years but I have allowed myself to linger on social media too long and it has cultivated an appetite my wife cannot handle. To the point where any advance towards her locks her out…I’m struggling. Praying for healing. Loved this video bro. Thank you!

I haven't looked at pron for around 6 months and I'm already so sensitive to sexual sin and I'm starting to see the natural God-given beauty in women.
this video came at a very interesting time in my life. it’s almost funny how much of a coincidence it is. God bless 🖤
