Yep I used to burden myself with getting everything right… till I stepped away from everything and started listening to mark DeJesus’s teachings! Glory to God! Mark is a TRUE BLESSING TO ME AND MY HEALING!!!!❤️
oh Yes however the Lord is good who removes burden from us. Thank you Minister Mark for very rich teachings. it was difficult to accept that but i know its true however i am over it
Thank you Mark !! This is me ! I sure appreciate you talking on this . I am way too hard on myself and get into so many distortions ! I’m going to keep playing this over and over . I Thank you for your Love and Grace , Jesus . It is all about what you did for me at the cross and not what I’ve done in my past . Thank you Lord for giving us Mark . Mark , God Bless you ! Going to stop taking myself seriously .
Wow, this helps me so much. Thank you, Mark. I have struggled with ocd thinking and panic attacks for a very long time. You are making me laugh about how crazy serious we can get over thoughts. It helps to tell myself to lighten up.
Oh my, I sure appreciate your message on this biblical truth. I so have an am ruled by guilt , condemnation, alway checking , questioning my thoughts and actions. My salvation. I sure need to learn how to walk and have the fruit of the Spirit . Thankyou are there any other talks that might help equip me in this
Wow...just saw video on end times and it made me so sad and pressure getting everyone saved than I pulled your video and I was relieved it's relationship ...freedom..I'm taken myself to serious. Thank you especially making me laugh at myself.
It could probably be a whole other video/talk but the pressure intensifies when we project this idea onto others...in other words, we think they are taking us as seriously as we take ourselves. Even people we don't even know, just in passing. It always amazes me when someone says "I didn't even know you were there, didn't notice you". I have a 'friend' who does this, haha. Seriously, you are helping me break down some lies I just went along with for years/decades. I thought I was addressing the problem, with little progress. If we keep putting in bigger screws to secure the door to the hinge and it is still not holding, maybe the wood is rotten. Thank you brother, this is great content
There is no condemnation for those who are in Christ. Jesus & Satan wants us to be condemned and throw those thoughts in our mind that we are not forgiven
Your videos on OCD have been so healing and have broken chains for me! Your wisdom is so incredible and beyond appreciated. Thank you for all that you do 💖
Sometimes I "unpack" or "extract" valuable truth and wisdom from "reasoning with" or "deconstructing" my thoughts. It's kinda like wrestling with a difficult math problem until you can solve it. I find it fun. Is this something I shouldn't do when overcoming OCD? I wonder?
@@SweejitOfficial This is really good advice! I keep a journal, so it would be good to jot down the problems and come back to them at more convenient times.
idk if this is my ocd or not but my thoughts keep tellling me i have to fast, and if i don’t i will never be healed from this. i’m stressed bc it’s pressuring bc if i don’t fast correctly it won’t work. it doesn’t make sense
Even if you don't eat fir 5 days u still be ok just lighter, so careful you not loose to much ok ! 102,4 lbs is a iffy wt , but I wake up ! there must be a God ! I'm sure of it , & if a vegetarian can be effected by said thing's, I don't know either ,? But this world doesn't worry about skinny people's, cause most r having wt issues from life , careful with your heart baby , ok , 💖 🙄
Hey Mark, I noticed in the book, God Loves Me and I Love Myself, that you quoted Bill Johnson from Bethel. I find your videos extremely helpful and I am grateful to God for them. However I know what Bill preaches at Bethel and its very heretical. I was anting to know if you just liked that quote from him of if you actually agree with what he says. It ha s been such a wear and tear on me being able to receive counsel from you because I struggle so much with legalism... I ask this in all love. Love-Victor
Hey there! I understand this all too well, and I had the same exact battle with reading to and listening to Mark's books and materials. It's okay! I've come to realize that one of the most important things in our relationship with one another is to learn how to "eat the meat" while spitting out the bones. This whole journey is about learning how to think for ourselves while maintaining love in our hearts. We do not need any human being to be something "perfect" for us in order for us to move forward in healing. This is part of that "control" and "fear" that we need to release. Perfectionism is a killer! That's not to say that the issue you stated isn't a real issue. It's just not an issue we can control. We can be released from the pressure of needing to agree 100% with someone to learn from them. We are all growing, and Mark states that he is too, and that, is the beautiful grace of our Lord. Listening to teachers or learning from someone is not about needing to be 100% "perfect" for us in every "little" belief. Christ did that for us... People aren't perfect, myself included! That's the beauty of the Gospel, too. I understand your battle though, with coming out of abusive cults or legalistic environments, that we have to re-learn how to think from ground 0. So much has been distorted to us, our very foundations and reality, so we then we have to fight "hyper-vigilance." We obsessively wonder if what we are learning now is "safe." It's good to test all things and is necessary, but we have to learn to not be afraid of other people's garbage or bad doctrines. We fear no evil. We have to get rooted in our identity in Christ. So, we can listen to Mark DeJesus or anyone else without compromising truth or our own personal convictions. Shoot... with such a standard, we'd never be able to read any book or listen to anything written by any man in this world, because everyone has so many hidden or overt sins and issues. We have to learn the wisdom of both being rooted AND to release. In relationship is how we reason together in love as the body of Christ about such doctrines and things. It's difficult to do online though. It stinks. Anyways... I say all of this to encourage you to keep holding to your (very correct convictions IMO) while not getting hung up on the "bones." Keep letting Mark's wisdom pour over your heart while releasing the "bones..." not ignoring the bones... but also not letting them steer you away from receiving good teaching, either. This is maturity. We all have to give an account to the Lord on our own for what we believe for sure as Romans chapter 14 states. A good read. Take care, and peace be with you! ✌
Legalism uses God as a weapon. Legalism shames, blames, criticizes, judges and condemns. So keep this in mind. We have all been conditioned in legalism our whole lives and even more so now. Our government is really forcing us to live in legalism. Thank God for Mark who is helping us find our way out of it. And to live in the truth.
Hey you guys. I’m struggling. I enjoy mark’s content. Is he wrong for quoting Bill Johnson. I get so confused about if Calvinism or Arminianism is correct.
I trust a invisible God & He can cover that ,maybe we think about stuff cause it helps us understand y important people's check out early, yes I do , dogs can do that ,but I don't have a pretty smile & he said the world will hate us & we see it does , it's like oh that hurts , must not be ok , how we learned, what relationship, he gone rip baby I don't think about that, I need to run , have a bus pass , rope , they shouldn't dwell on them, no being down here with thugs , & what they threating to do , & the silly fear games, cages , pulling them out of cars , r they serious, y they show us that unless to spread fear , I have toys , nice toys build little airplanes, cars , varoom , color books , there outside, when u see drama to early! I think I could be a decent defense lawyer, maybe I should consider it , or just a friend to friendless & beat up people's out side . Good morning, Brother from another mom , ☕🌡🍶 u like coffee, yum ,
Don’t listen to this guy, including his request for money at the end of it, but there are plenty of reasons besides that to disregard his advice. Remember that Paul said to regard your salvation with fear and trembling. We are living very very close to the last 7 years, a time that Jesus Himself said will be the worst time period EVER on earth. He also said that just before it begins, people will be like they were in the day before the flood began, getting married even. Jesus also said that He will spit the lukewarm out of His mouth. He said to take His yoke, but remember that a yoke was a device that joined two oxen together for work, to harness both oxen together to be synergistically stronger, to pull more, to get more WORK done. Until Christ came, we had the Old Covenant, which was shown us to make us understand that nobody other than Christ could keep the old law (saved by grace not works) but faith without works is dead (James). The days are evil in 2024 and the enemy can appear as an angel of light (and I literally saw Satan once and he appeared to be made of light. Peter told us to cast our cares upon God because He cares enough to help us THROUGH our problems. Jesus said that we will face tribulations but that He would never forsake us or abandon us. If you are struggling, take it to God by praying without ceasing, READ the word EVERYDAY and pray for God’s help to understand it before reading it every time. God loved as we were but He loves us too much to leave us just as we are and that is the process of sanctification. Sorry but it is serious enough to take ourselves seriously. Paul said take every thought into obedience to Christ. If you really truly want to know if this is all true, pray honestly and earnestly to Jesus to show you, but if you don’t want it to be true, confess that to God also, not our will Father, but Yours. It’s eternity that matters the most and how many people do you know, even love, who are not saved! It is serious but this guy is selling something other than what he professes. Christ warned us “do not be deceived”. This guy is a wolf in sheep’s clothing.
You're missing the point. Peace my guy. You're describing so much performance. Salvation is not a you thing so don't make it about you. Obviously don't sin but chill. God's got it
Yanked boy cusons. To us British people. It's great to have you yanks on our side. Thanks for your help my friend 🇬🇧🙏.
I love "I'm your brother from another mother." 😄
I'm glad! :-)
God just broke an almighty chain off me! praise the Lord 🙌 honestly something just happened where it felt like in this area I was set free 🙏
Yes, amen. Hoping for the same
Amen!
Yep I used to burden myself with getting everything right… till I stepped away from everything and started listening to mark DeJesus’s teachings! Glory to God! Mark is a TRUE BLESSING TO ME AND MY HEALING!!!!❤️
In a land far away their was a man who had a crazy thought and he went crazy 🤣🤣🤣🤣 …awesome ! Thanks for all you do Mark !
I love it
I know the serious thoughts can rob you of joy!
22:50 I literally had to stop what I was doing and look at the screen because I needed to hear that so much. Praise God!
Our brother from another mother 👨🌾

Thank you Mark !! This is me ! I sure appreciate you talking on this . I am way too hard on myself and get into so many distortions ! I’m going to keep playing this over and over .

This was needed Mr. DeJesus. Sometimes I waiver in our right standing. What do for the community is important to us!
Wow, this helps me so much. Thank you, Mark. I have struggled with ocd thinking and panic attacks for a very long time. You are making me laugh about how crazy serious we can get over thoughts. It helps to tell myself to lighten up.
Real Talk! 🙌🏼🙏🏼💯💯💯
This message was a major blessing for me. Thank you.
Such a helpful video! Thanks for sharing!!
Thank you for these videos, Mark, they never cease to set my soul a little more free. God bless all!
Thanks
Oh my, I sure appreciate your message on this biblical truth. I so have an am ruled by guilt , condemnation, alway checking , questioning my thoughts and actions. My salvation. I sure need to learn how to walk and have the fruit of the Spirit . Thankyou are there any other talks that might help equip me in this
I finished the degree because that was the only thing she understood and now I'm asking for God's direction as to what I should focus on next.
Sir, thank you very much for this video!!! God bless you always.
You are describing my thought life exactly.
This was so beautiful in so many ways
Wow...just saw video on end times and it made me so sad and pressure getting everyone saved than I pulled your video and I was relieved it's relationship ...freedom..I'm taken myself to serious. Thank you especially making me laugh at myself.

I feel I punish myself for my sins from years and years ago.
I do that too. ☹️
Jesus paid it all!! Walk in that freedom!! If we confess our sins He is faithful and just to forgive us our sins✝️🩷
There is no condemnation for those who are in Christ. Jesus & Satan wants us to be condemned and throw those thoughts in our mind that we are not forgiven
Your videos on OCD have been so healing and have broken chains for me! Your wisdom is so incredible and beyond appreciated. Thank you for all that you do 💖
Thank you 🙏
I’ve been struggling with this so much. Stuck in a cycle of analyzing myself and my thoughts. This video was such a huge help, thank you!!
Thank you so much Mark DeJesus. I really need this ❤
Mark all this applies to me but in my workplace, I made my job my main priority and I still failed
Sometimes I "unpack" or "extract" valuable truth and wisdom from "reasoning with" or "deconstructing" my thoughts. It's kinda like wrestling with a difficult math problem until you can solve it. I find it fun.
Is this something I shouldn't do when overcoming OCD? I wonder?
I do it too, I think it might be healthy if you do it at a set time in a decided place, not always being in your head for most of your day.
@@SweejitOfficial This is really good advice! I keep a journal, so it would be good
to jot down the problems and come back to them at more convenient times.
Brilliant message thank you Mark
I was told not to ignore my emotions. Just because it’s like a toothaches. You can understand by that if you need to go to dentist or not
Hey, Mark. Could you, please, share a link, if there's one, for reading your book "I will not fear" online for free?
idk if this is my ocd or not but my thoughts keep tellling me i have to fast, and if i don’t i will never be healed from this. i’m stressed bc it’s pressuring bc if i don’t fast correctly it won’t work. it doesn’t make sense
Even if you don't eat fir 5 days u still be ok just lighter, so careful you not loose to much ok ! 102,4 lbs is a iffy wt , but I wake up ! there must be a God ! I'm sure of it , & if a vegetarian can be effected by said thing's, I don't know either ,? But this world doesn't worry about skinny people's, cause most r having wt issues from life , careful with your heart baby , ok , 💖 🙄
Yes, definitely sounds like OCD. ❤️
Easier said than done 😢
Are we not to let people know what's right or wrong?
Do we need antidepressant. To get our mind to focus and don't let it drift
