That narrow path is NO joke, no wonder few find it, we are born in this sinful world and we must resist temptation every single day for as long as we live, then we also must be born again as well, this walk…I knew it wasn’t gonna be easy, almost daily I feel I’m not as close to God as I thought I was, then I go and read Isaiah 1:15 “When you spread out your hands in prayer, I hide my eyes from you; even when you offer many prayers, I am not listening. Your hands are full of blood!“
NIV. Idk if it still applies because it’s Old Testament but man…this walk is NOT easy but I’m not giving up, because I know he will never abandon me
I also feel this way mostly. I know how discouraging it is, and its so easy to walk the line between resting in Jesus's work and striving for holiness. Its easy to slip into thinking God judges you by your works ,buts not true, He loves us regardless of what we do, even His commands are out of love. I find it easier to obey Him when i consider His love, but sometimes i doubt it. You're not alone in this, in fact i heard mighty men of God that i look up to, saying they had struggles as me, that is encouraging, and as God was with them He will be with you and me, just don't give in ,like you said.
Old Testament...New Testament...why did God have it in His Word if it wasn't important for our lives?
It could be translated as Old Covenant and New Covenant, but still the same people of God.
@@isaiahbaird1725
It's not really the same covenant. Yes i agree we need to learn from the OT, and I agree that the principles of the OT law apply, and the law itself as in serious moral general things(murder/adultery etc) but the new covenant is different. The Old was only with Israel, based on obedience and with physical blessings mostly. The New covenant is based on faith, grace, and the promises are rather spiritual. The apostle Paul also spoke of the contrast between the new nd old covenant. However there are lessons to learn, principles to follow and take heed of, we see the heart of God, etc. It's just not one and the same
The narrow and the straight path is Jesus bro. Few find it because they’re all trying to be enough. They’re all trying to reach this standard that isn’t the standard of God because his standard is perfection. Not resisting some sin sometimes isn’t Gods standard. “Turning from the world” isnt Gods standard. Trust in Jesus for your salvation. Quit trying to earn your way. He payed it all on the cross. Believe in that. He saved you bro, you play no part in it. You can’t ever be perfect. So it’s either you are perfect or you believe in Jesus Christ.
God never promised life would be easy. I follow God regardless of what happens to me. Job lost everything and he remained faithful to our Father. Glory to Lord Jesus. ❤❤❤
Job had a few wife's and he was a good guy
@@alexblue6991Got it, haha.😅
Not only “not easy” but horribly miserable. Apostles and saints were tortured or had their heads cut off. Children are abducted and killed.
I can’t stand these prosperity preachers
Amen❤
So what makes you think god is real? There's no evidence. Everything that is not real, doesn't exist, there is no evidence for nor against. There cannot be any god. You're wasting your time.
I think every Christian needs to have their own struggle to really understand what it means to be a Christian. I’ve noticed people who come to Christ later in life have a different view point than those of us who grew up in it. I think some of who are raised in the church take a lot for granted, and haven’t experienced what means to wrestle with God. I think this is why some Christians abandon their faith in adulthood, because life gets hard, and many think God is supposed make their troubles go away. When it doesn’t happen the way they want, they lash out.
I couldn't relate anymore to this. I grew up in the church during my elementary and middle school years. However, once I went to the high school/ college that I went to I was exposed to a lot of secularism and admittedly partook in it.
I honestly thank God i had the opportunity to experience what I did because it forced me to be uncomfortable and be around people who didn't believe/were mad at God. I realize it's my duty to do my best to bring them to God.
Please pray for me.
I am struggling with some darkness in my mind.
The people born or raised in the church learned how to serve God before loving Him.
My parents were saved and served God out of love. They didn't really know what it meant to serve, but they did have a passion for Christ.
I did not love God, and that's why it was easy for me to experiment with the secular.
True😢😢
I struggle daily with sexual temptation and sin. It's the one sin that latches on. Even after I try to block off avenues to Pornography I find new avenues to lust. I don't understand sexual temptation. Sex was created by God to be something good but for me it becomes an unhealthy obsession. I miss the 90's in a lot of way because Internet/Smart Phone technology did not exist. Most avenues of lust were through magazines and occassionally on movies and TV but it wasn't really ubiquitous. Now it's literally everywhere you look. Everywhere you turn. There is no escape. No respite. Something seems wrong with the whole picture. I struggle with OCD so it amplifies all those thoughts even worse. I don't know how some people escape but I know it's possible and I try not to give up hope.
Satan is a pathetic desperate loser
God understands our weaknesses, He wants us to keep fighting though, just don't give up. Even though you fail, just go back to God. Remember you're not justified by "your righteousness" but Jesus' grace, you don't have to run, but keep fighting the good fight. BTW there's a ministry called "covenant eyes" that might help you with that, i heard testimonies of ppl saying they rlly helped, maybe try to reach them?
exactly@@SilkyAnteater.
Maybe try a new community? We tend to assimilate to our communities as we try to settle to a niche for ourselves..
I gained freedom partly from a book called "finally free" by heath Lambert, highly recommend the audiobook
Yes I have gone through something similar.
I was raised in church and raised pretty well. Even with my friends I still acted like a good Christian. And still do. But every now and again some signs of sin would leak out. I fell into such a big pit of masterbation and pornography. When I was about 3or4 I had gotten baptized. But it wasn't until I was 16 until I realized I wasn't saved. I started having doubts. So I asked God to show me if I was saved. He did. I had a dream that Jesus came back and I wasn't ready. That was early last year. After a struggle with what I needed to do I finally gave it all to him Dec 3rd of last year. I am still struggling with pornography, but I'm trying to stop. I know exactly what you have gone through. I'll be 18 this July and I hope to break loose from the chains of lust by then.
Praise God, brother!!!
We are the next generation, so we must not lose the salt of our worship and missions.❤❤ Matt 5:13.
@@jasevanderwey2049 Amen.
You are not saved by giving your life to Christ, Christ gave his life for you! Trust in him and his finished work and you are saved forever! God bless!
Look to Christ always, my brother ♥
@@L3D33 thank you for catching my mistake. What I meant was I gave my struggles and worries to him.
I have no more doubts about my salvation.
Interesting to see your protestant perspective on this.
Within my personal experience with orthodoxy, there is always this idea that you are a sinner and that you will struggle inevitably, but with repentance and praying, God will never abandon you.
It made accepting my flaws more easy. It's good to see others also concluding this within other denominations.
It’s about biblical conclusions 🙏🏼when you study the scripture you will see it’s not about being part of a denomination. It’s about having a real intimate relationship with Jesus🔥❤️
What do you mean protestant and orthodoxy nonsense? If you don't accept Jesus and obey his word which orthodoxy do not do you aren't for Christ i advice you to repent and take your mind of orthodoxy or protestant talks because at the end of the denomination will save no one
Allah didn't get raised from the dead did he
Same in catholicism. Sanctification is a lifelong process. God bless you brother in Christ
When I had an ED, I reached a point where I just didn't want want to look at anything to do with my faith couldn't even think about it. I was so focused on weight loss. That was the most important thing in my life and I knew I was wrong and that I was sinning by hurting my body with lack of nutrition.
When I started recovery I drifted back to thinking about my faith, reading relevant books and going to church. Things I couldn't have tolerated doing when my ED was at it's worst.
This was me, hearing you say it tho fills me with dread, to consider or be reminded it was ever a sin, but I suppose that only makes sense. If anything, personally I always knew that thinness for me, and control through restriction was my idolatry. it IS idolatry, or serving another God, it was my whole world, and I gave our saviour no place in that world. But Jesus warned us we cannot serve two masters, which is part of what keeps the temptation at bay to this day, cus i still crave after that peace and control. But its not real peace, or true joy, Christs gospel is :), yay.
I'm glad you're recovering, I wish you everything i love you x
Seeking God is one of the hardest thing one can even contemplate.
You shouldn’t twist Gods word. Jesus was speaking of The Holy Spirit, not Muhammad.
You have been deceived, if you haven’t you wouldn’t need to say indirectly so many times. It’s time you understood the truth in Jesus name
I am 49 years old, but I gain tons from a lot of your messages. It’s good for ppl to remember that not only new or young Christians mess up, we all mess up. Renew yourself as often as you are reminded that you should!
growing up in a non-Christian family I never met a Christian, ever. I'm so glad there are Christians here guiding us lost lambs to the fold.
Turns out Christians have been here where I live all this time... just unseen... still set in their missionary traditions and neglecting lambs of the city they live in.
Thanks, very convicting. Ouch!
Hey man, just wanted to say I truly felt like you were speaking directly to me with this video. This is literally exactly where I am right now, where I know what I'm doing is wrong but then I'm going to church and acting like everything is fine and like I'm not doing anything wrong and in my soul I know this isn't right. I'm still not entirely sure what I need to do to get back on the right track, but I honestly believe this video is some kind of sign. Really love the stuff you put out man, I hope god blesses you for it 🙏
I feel the same! Felt like a sign. It's nice to know I'm not alone in my struggle. Watching this video and reflecting on how I've been living my life made me see that I have indeed been living a double life. This is something I need to take way more seriously. I'm going to confess to someone I trust today. I think that would help you a lot too. Bring things to light so they may be revealed and healed. Don't keep them in the dark where they can fester and grow into something worse. I'll pray for u!
I repent every day from smoking tobacco. And smoking weed. Yet I do it. Always in the moment. I find joy. Afterwards. I feel guilty. I do it behind my wife’s back. An I just feel hopeless. Every time. She talks about being so proud of me for quitting. God I’m such a fool. I’m so sorry. I want to be clean. So bad. Lord forgive me. I want heaven so desperately.
go to therapy about it. or get yourself some books about overcoming addiction. you don’t have to be stuck in the cycle you’re in, just start by looking at how other people got out
As a young kid I definitely did feel that and acted similar but when I got into my teenage years I had a shift and found God for real no matter who I'm around or with I'm in it for God I'll pray and talk openly about God it's not about if they think im a good Christian I'm living for God I struggle with sin like and man but I am in it for God
Wow, we have an 8 year old son, he’s 1st generation being raised in a Christian foundation. I am truly blessed by this video, thank you for sharing. May God continue to bless you for His glory. 🙏🏽🎚️
Practicing what is expected in the Christian religion is quite difficult, and I found I couldn’t really do it. At sometime lots of us find ourselves making the choice to continue pretending and accepting that doing the best you can is good enough or moving on.
I was just wrecked in my life. Emotionally hurt. I'm grateful that no matter what happens, I still go to God.
I was backsliding and I had to be shown my stupidity.
"God, thank you that even though I'm a sinner, you have poured out your grace on me through Christ's sacrifice and victory." I AM a sinner. I would argue with Paul that he's not the worst, I am. I know the right thing to do, but I don't do it. I know that the things I do are sin, but I continue in them. Thanks for this reminder, Isaac!
Man, I relate to this story so much. Thanks for sharing. It's amazing how many people who grew up as "good Christians" have similar stories. I don't have an answer, but there must be something that can be done better in homes and churches to figure this out.
This guy finally explained to me what I couldn't figure out and had the exact same experience as me. Thank you so much for opening my eyes!!!
I can’t thank you enough brother for this very encouraging breath of fresh air! We’re not so different, you and I, being basically raised Christian by loving parents who did the best they could to show and tell we were unconditionally loved; yet still walking away feeling we had something to prove and/or love to earn.
As I’m working through even today, as a married father in his mid 30s, I felt (and still feel) a lot of pressure as an oldest child who is/was “wise and capable beyond his years” to act like I “know better than that” (as I was often admonished). Which, as I’ve grown to believe, sowed the seeds of perfectionism in me - where I (like you as I understand) logically ascent to the truth of the gospel yet struggle to take it all the way to heart, believing that I still have to “be perfect before the Lord my God.” And yes I kept my own struggles under wraps, saying “it’s not as bad as the others out there.”
I definitely struggle in being fully honest with God about my own sins and temptations. Particularly in the double life aspect. On one hand, I'm very enthusiastic about my faith and particularly adamant on what I want in a romantic relationship. On the other hand, I've gradually caught feelings for a non-Christian. I feel like this is properly the first time where I've been tested in my beliefs, after the luxury of growing up in a sheltered Christian household. For a while I denied it was happening, but it's pointless considering God knows exactly what is going on in your heart- and just harms you in the end! So I'm more honest with myself and Him now. It's still very spiritually difficult and draining- but I know that God wants the best person for me, and it's not with someone I can't be fully authentic with.
Hey, you know, feelings are things often hard to control,but you can choose to honor God in spite of your feelings, just the occurrence of this or any temptation is not automatically sin, its what you do with them if you choose to pursue them. But you don't have to fight alone. Ask God to help you, i like what Paul said in Galatians, we're not sanctified by the flesh, in other words, we don't "try harder " but ask and trust God to work in us
@@SilkyAnteater. Yes, that's very wise! No I agree, I was more thinking I have just a general tendency to sweep things about myself under the rug- including a romantic attraction. Feelings like this are still relatively new to me and it gets overwhelming- it's hard to navigate, and I guess it feels a bit embarrassing considering how emphatic I am on having a Christian partner. Thank you for reminding me though that I don't need to fight it alone, I'd forgotten how relevant that verse is 💜
I see. I just remembered Issac has plenty videos on singleness/trusting God with a partner/marriage choices... maybe those would help you.
I do not feel like it is wise to be a Christian when one is looking to be coupled. Faith is a struggle, and you must reach the conclusions of faith at the right time with someone else, while having disernment, with similar experiences while taking the power differential and motivators and deceptions into account. Just take into account what is necessary and what can be negotiated away, and delegation of duties. It is far more important that you can raise your children under the right values and mindset.
@@Oysters176 An interesting perspective- thank you for sharing!
I may not have a right here to speak because I did not grow up in church or a christian home, but this is what I see. Our greatest failure is loving ourselves more than loving God! And we fail to love God because we don't know Him as we should. He has given more than enough to know and draw near to Him (His creation, word, historical proof of living, ect). In light of this it is understandable then that it didn't work. Resist the devil and he will flee and the following verse says draw near to God( right away put your mind on His word, music, ect) when you are struggling with sin! Praying for all here!!!
Man this is something that I’m struggling with, and its wrecking my relationships😞 its crazy how much one may know head wise yet be poor spiritually. Thanks David🙏
i identify with all of this. Thanks for the encouraging words bro!!
This video couldn’t have popped up in my feed at a more perfect time. Amen & thank you.
Its not supposed to be easy realizing how hard it is halve the battle. Many thinks its a joke or doesn't apply to them. The hardest part is we must endure till the end no shortcuts. Enjoy the blessings from the Lord but always be prepared for the battle or challenge do not lose faith
This is so pertinent to my life. The struggle of sin shame and pride. Thank you for the very well timed video. I’ve struggled with this for years and now it’s time to let go.
I used to have this double too! Back in late 2016 I was attending a men's bible study group in my church. That group was on a Friday night and... well... y'all know what happens if you still have non-believing friends calling you up on Friday night. God chastised me for that of course but this whole time, I always had that self-imposed pressure to put up a face in church even when I knew that God accepts me as I am but He will transform my life for His glory.
Everyone around my church were very genuine people too! Whoever they were in church, they were the same people when we would just have dinner after church or just walk along the boulevard. And yet I put this pressure on myself to be the "good Christian." But then God gave me a circle of very close friends in church and they really showed me on a personal level what it meant to just be honest with the Lord because they were really honest with me too! Two of said friends moved to different cities and are still serving the Lord where they are and the other two live where I am but I haven't seem them at church the past year sadly. Praying for them always.
I disagree only with the “I knew you were going to backstab me, but…” part of what you said. The father of the prodigal never even mentioned anything like that, he was just thrilled that his son returned. Remember, God sees you the way a loving father looks at his new baby, every day and night, 24/7/365
I have a friend that I see living those two different lives, I don’t know how to help him
Praying for you
Maybe you could go through the ten commandments with him. It is like a mirror showing us the truth about ourselves when we ask ourselves if we have ever broken them.
I’m currently going through this this and its so frustrating to me becasye I want to hate the things God hates I want to love what he loves but my flesh just wants the things of this world
*_Psa 51:1_* *_To the chief Musician, A Psalm of David, when Nathan the prophet came unto him, after he had gone in to Bathsheba. Have mercy upon me, O God, according to thy lovingkindness: according unto the multitude of thy tender mercies blot out my transgressions._* *_KJB_*
Love that passage
every time you post a viideo Isaac it hits me so real! thank you!
I struggle with lust, gossip, cursing and lying to get myself out of certain situations the most of all sins and I’ve been praying to break free of all these sins and I feel like I am very slowly but surely getting through it although it is not an easy path.
Really good Video Jacob. An important message. Do not forget you are a sinner. Recently heard the Rev Calvin Robinson make the comment that with humility, we constantly need to humble ourselves, because the minute we think we have it, up comes the pride, and then we are like the pharisee saying at least I am not like this taxpayer! Always we need to remember we are sinners.
I don't know if you would be interested but Cameron Fradd, on her channel Among the Lillies, had a Healing After Abortion Story, and in that story, the young woman goes to her godparents after the event, and the god parents said to her: We too, have done terrible things.
And they helped her pick up the pieces.
I think how important it is for each other as christians to know that we too, have done terrible things, but none of us are beyond redemption and that is why we are christians.
I don't understand what that means. I have been exploring and been being brutally honest in prayer to god for months. Maybe I am blind, maybe I don't quite understand the bible or don't...I just feel so lost, depressed, that I am victimizing, maybe I am missing something I need help
Sometimes, God allows us to go through a desert where we think he doesn’t hear us or doesn’t answer us. He allows our surroundings to crumble so he can stir our souls towards him, and we can understand that there is nothing in the world that will last forever, nothing that will satisfy your soul but him. He allows our walk through this desert so we experience what it is to thirst for him, giving us a drop of his presence one at a time so that we know that only he can sustain us through those times. Stay strong my friend, just keep believing that he will make a way through that desert. Don’t faint, God is with you.
I messed up daily as growing up...and I still do and I get scared am I gonna make it ? And I see videos on RUclips saying Christians in hell ? .makes me feel like wow I'm so tired of it but I have to have faith and believe that Jesus blood covers my sins
i was just struggleing with this and praying and talking to God about this last night thank you for making this video
Wow! Honest and humble relationship with Jesus. We need more young men like this
You’re on point with this one. Thank you and continue to let The LORD use you.
This is a great message man. Thank you!
Brother, thank you for your inspiring confession. We should acknowledge our own Hades and on the same time despair not (St Silouan). May the Grace and Peace of our Lord Jesus Christ stay with you all the days of your life.
Amazing video, bro. God bless you, Shabbat Shalom and victory to Jesus who has risen. 😀👍
Totally, I see it as being aware of my need for God. Thanks Issac!
Learning how to come out of my introverted ways because it is causing me to sin in terms of pride because I want people do things for me and I am having a a hard time doing the same.
I am thankful for this challenge in my life. 😊
Thank you for this. This hit close. I resonated and related to literally every word and definitely need this.
The Narrow Path is almost impossible, notice how I said almost. This path is so hard to go through, arrogant people trying to disprove us, saying it’s fairy tales, sometimes I just want to stop in the path and just wait till I die. But I can’t do that, I have to continue down this path to reach God.
Me2, for me it’s laziness and pride, also fear
I am thankful for a lot- but some of this is a daily struggle making me both realize my need for rest and for fellowship with others.
Anyway ty for this video- I appreciate it
Yeah, it wasn't a choice as a kid, and I fell into the idea that it was a chore and something I had to do, and it took me falling away from faith and being lost to truly believe and choose to follow Christ. It also took me a very long time even when I started to go to church again to really acknowledge there were two lives I was living. This video is a nice reminder for me that I am not perfect and I shouldn't be ashamed to be open with my imperfection. Thanks brother.
Thank you for being so honest with us🙏🏾🙏🏾
I had to confess a sin to my wife yesterday God had been putting it in my heart for awhile
Amen! That you for sharing this encouraging word! I think this is a issue that a lot of us struggle with!
I used to at 8 years old be shown fetishized character content (the horrific fat sonic videos) and it mentally scarred me and allowed me to be trapped in sin recently at 14 and now after months, I’m finally getting back to my normal self, may Jesus help us all and the next generation 😢 I HAVE NOTICED A PATTERN AND ILL EXPLAIN IN THE REPLIES
So a lot of us stumble into sin not only bc of exposure but bc there is a mass confusion with parents of this last 2 generations that we are living perfectly fine when there is a whole world that is online that the youth is exposed too that the parent doesn’t know how to control and another pattern is that some parents brush off things too oftentimes when we try to tell them that we feel that we may be doing something wrong so we stay un answered and live with ignorant sin and fall into the rabbit hole this way, the world is completely changing faster than we can comprehend and parents can’t %100 gate keep everything but what they can do is become a go-to person to talk to which lots of parents are failing to do in the last days.
@@icyink8297This right here. This is the struggle. This most recent generation has been exposed to a whole other level of lustful content and just demonic things. It makes the Christian walk 10x harder cuz you basically have to cut out all these things but even then it feels like stuff is just nagging on you constantly and the struggle gets even tougher when you make active steps towards God. I’ve dealt with shame so long because of my sin and horrible things my mind has been exposed to but God is renewing us every single day and taking us through it. Spiritual warfare is so real and if you have people in your household who are spiritually blinded and don’t believe in Jesus then you will be attacked through them as well. I feel you on what your speaking God Bless you my friend🙏❤️🙏❤️
I struggle like this. It called OCD..its the worst.
Thank you so much for this video. God bless you, from Spain.
Finally some one who put into words how I've been feeling thank you sir and thank you Jesus
We're only righteous because our Lord is righteous.
Yup we are. Thank the Lord Jesus for what he did for us, my king and my master is the Lord of Lords and King of Kings, Jesus Christ Love is so much it’s incomparable to anything else, through the Love he has shown to us I want to deny myself but it’s a tough battle everyday.
God loves you all.
This definitely happens. The only way it doesn’t happen is when the individual is in a faith that truly isn’t Christian, one that puts no pressure upon the individual to try. The CHEAP GRACE belief.
The facade, the masquerade of pretending to be Christian is functional. It is a mold in which we press ourselves in the hope and goal of becoming MORE like Christ. If we don’t give up , we will fail, but Christs ransom bridges the gap. It becomes an acolyte, master relationship.
i struggle with this, knowing God loves me and died for me and willnever leave me, and then i mess up and feel oh God is mad at me, i’m being a bad christian, i:m being a hypocrite how can ieven be in the Lord’s prescence like this ew i dont even try to not sin sometimes why would God wanna forgive me and my ugly desires i cant seem to uproot.
this is so confusing somtimes man. i grew up in the church so iguess iam just discovering later in life what it means to struggle with the Lord. God you love me and wanna bless me, but only when i hve the strength to muster up repenting or staying good? i cant do this on my own and where is God in the midst of our terrible humaness and struggles. He’s here in the middle of it all but how to remember that when we are there
You have no idea how much I needed to hear this rn. God bless
I am Safe and Free
Love 💕 and Peace
I am Blessed 😇
Thank You 🙏 Jesus
You Are what you Believe 😊❤
Gorgeous. Amen. Also James 5:16. Confession of sin to one another. Remember, where two or more are gathered... so let's also confess our sins to one another. It's always in the presence of God then as well.
Thank you Father 😔🙏
Sometimes, the pressure of looking up to God is so strong. That I feel really tired. Idk how God looks at me, if with sorrow, or with judgemental eyes and eye-rolls. It doesn't matter how many facts, logic and reason I use, it will always come back because my loneliness, isolation and sadness kicks in and wants to do it. It's like one of those songs that I heard in one of _those_ sites "I'll make you lose your mind."
Wow truthful speak on RUclips. We are soldiers of the Lord, we fight evil through the flesh… …war is designed to be hard
This is a powerful message. Thank you for sharing it!
Thank you so much
God don't expect us to be perfect .even pastors make mistakes. God likes us to be faithful
To submit runs against the instinct of life.
I will not allow another to live my life. I have no desire to live another’s life.
The premise of religion is to choose death.
To that, I will never submit.
"Chi non prende la propria croce e non viene dietro di me, non puo` essere mio discepolo.." La vita non e` facile per nessuno, Dio ci dice solo che siamo amati cosi` tanto da valere il Suo Sacrificio per noi, quindi ogni volta che sentiamo di non farcela dobbiamo ricordarci che Lui crede in noi e nella nostra forza e ci accompagna anche nel dolore...
AMEN Bro, in JESUS MIGHTY NAME🙏🙏🙏I have ALWAYS ❤️’ed the Parable of the Humble Tax Collector…it ALWAYS spoke to me in regards to HOW TRUE Humilty and Repentance looked like versus the way that I have seen it portrayed in the Modern Church…HUMILTY COMES THROUGH TRUE SURRENDER🙏🙏🙏
This is the most relatable video i have ever seen. Please keep me in your prayers 🙏
Amen. Thank you for this.
Amen Father God🙏🙏🙏
Repent is not asking for forgiveness, repenting is changing your mind
Hard to learn.
Knowing about God grows your intellect.
Knowing God grows spiritual strength.
One will help you know how to overcome temptation.
The other will help you to overcome it.
Thanks for your videos brother. God Bless you.
Thank you
Holiness is the example. Be holy for I am holy. Leviticus 19:2. 1 Peter 1:15,16. We are called to follow his foot steps. 1 Peter 2:21-23. Romans 8:12-17. What you are saying it's true but holiness is needed in publicly and secretly by doing that we need to look to Jesus always to enables us to do God's will. It's possible to be a good Christian through Jesus who gives you strength because without Jesus we all can do nothing and by doing that it takes sometime to grow mature in spiritual as well with physical, Joseph from the old testament was example by fleeing sexual temptation from Potiphar's wife. God was with Joseph and blessed him with everything he did.
Amen All glory to Jesus Amen
Just asking, do you believe in the annihilatiomist theory?
Amen brother! Preach!
Hi @Daily Disciple, I would like to ask then, is it okay to be angry with God then? What if I am so angry that I want to swear at Him? Do I confess and repent? Or do I come to Him and swear at Him and tell Him how much anger I have towards Him?
I need help so badly, but I don't know how to break free from lust
Your flesh will always be corrupted. When you believe what Jesus did on the cross, him saving you cause you’re a sinner, then you are born again. And your spirit is divided from the flesh. You’re saved. You’re already free bro, you’re in Jesus.
I have been walking with God for over 15 years, it’s very difficult, even I have experienced God’s wrath and love, I even asked God to kill me and take me to heaven a few times , but today I believe that I’m one of the most blessed people in the universe 🎉
Thank you 🥹 I needed to hear this.
Thank you 😊
Acting perfect doesn't make sense because we will never be perfect but god knows our heart its all about faith most important have faith in god and that he will always be with us in our hardships and tough moments im human god is god he is perfect im not
God love is perfect he understand us better than we ever will
Mathew 16 :24 if anyone wants to be a disciple must deny himself and carry his cross, again Mathew 5 : 48 be perfect therefore as your heavenly father is perfect.

Ohh, the idea of cristian perfection 😢😢😢 It almost ended with my life.
Thanks to the Lord, He went to find me. 🙏🏻
One of the major tenets of historical Protestantism is that there is no such thing as a "good Christian." Our redeemed spirit and our flesh will continue to battle for as long as we live, and final victory will not occur in this lifetime. The first of Martin Luther's 95 Theses stated that the life of a Christian is a life of daily repentance. The liturgy in churches such as Anglican and Lutheran typically begins with a prayer of confession in which we admit that all of us, including the pastor leading the prayer, have sinned in thought, word, and deed, by what we have done and by what we have left undone, followed by words of absolution. There is no need to pretend that we are "good Christians" who have attained some sort of spiritual victory.
powerful video, thank you :)
You are baptized in water to clean you. Baptized in oil to prepare you. Then you go into the fire to burn away your faults and understand the Holy Spirit.
Then you go into the fire.
Then you go into the fire.
Then you go into the fire.
Then you go into the fire.
Then you go into the fire.
But there's less to burn away each time and it gets easier until
You're the fire.
I struggle with my flesh so much that i just got tired of the struggle and just let go and just accepted it but i know this isnt right,i should by no means accept sin as something normal,something fine,we are called to be holy and we are given the power to fight sin and we are dead to sin and sin reigns in our life only if we let it but my problem i suppose is that i dont know how to let God fight these my battles,i fight them on my own with my own strenght and this is why i got tired of these battles and why i am unable to win them. Flesh and the Spirit cannot peacefully coenside,Bible says they are at emnity with one another and that we cant serve two masters. I understand i will struggle with flesh until the day i die or rather in these days until rapture happens and we get new eternal glorified body,what i need to learn is let go from me having control and let God take control. Again,i dont know how to do that.
I cant wait for the day we will have our new body and wont ever again sin even in thoughts,i am exhausted from sinning,i feel like a filthy rag. God bless.
Oh yes. It does resonate
Thank you Brother !
once you've surrendered to and found christ, you've already reached the key to heaven.
But then our journey of bettering our relationship with god and filling our heart more and more with christ and removing any evil and sin from our heart starts.
And sometimes you will stumble and fall, but what matters most of all is that you stand up. And you stand up by confessing your sins and trusting god in improving you.
We are the silver and god is the silversmith. He will not take his eye off us until we are purified by the fire which can consist of pain and suffering but also other things that we learn from. And he won't leave us too long and neither too short in that fire. He'll take us out at just the perfect time when we are fully purified.
God is faithfull to finish what he started, therefore there is no reason not to trust him.
God is worthy to be praised by all in existence and therefore we should! may god bless you like he did with me, and may we put our trust in him for if we do, our destination is clear!
