Which is sooooo needed today. I’m over the perfect persona, people can’t heal when they’re trying to hide. Other people being honest is powerful and helps set so many others free.
I’m so glad that she admitted this. Because ppl don’t generally associate porn with females. But truth is we watch. Like her, I first saw it when I was a child and that demon grew with me until adulthood. And I said demon because that’s what it is. It’s a sin and a stronghold that was so very difficult for me to release. I too used it to remain celibate. But as I begin turning my life to God I felt a very strong conviction and thank God almighty I was able to give it up. 🙏🏽❤️
I’ve always know that women like porn just as much as men! It’s a multi billion dollar industry! With those numbers it can’t be just men watching. What a lot of people may not know is about 80-90% of women prefer girl on girl porn.
I struggled with porn in my early adulthood. Here is one trick the Holy Spirit taught me, and it really helped me in breaking the addiction. If you feel the urge to watch porn, start praying! If you feel like making a bad decision, start praying! Replace every porn rush with a prayer, and you'll become a prayer warrior 😊
So glad she was transparent about her struggles. Yes The Holy Spirit will strengthen you to turn from sin! ❤😊 I will set no wicked thing before mine eyes Psalm 101:3
I just subscribed because of this clip. The honesty coming from Essence and the encouragement I felt after listening to this clip! Thank you Lord for putting this on my timeline.
If you’re alive, there’s still hope.❤❤ I needed that!! All day I was thinking that maybe, it’s too late for me to be something in this life. God thank you for hope. ❤
wow!! interesting part about this..she was on a t.v. show called are we there yet..on the show she was married to terry crews who also suffered from porn addiction..props to the both of them for getting rid of the addiction completely!! 💪🏾
Totally can relate when you think porn is helping you but slowly killing you spiritually. There is hope to break out from it. The Holy Spirit has that antidote.
I say it all of the time. Masturbating is not abstinence and celibacy. It makes you not need a partner. As a deliverance minister, the spirit of masturbation is a strong nasty demon.
@Poppa_Reed The anointing of God has shown me otherwise. Plus, that spirit want allow her to get married. God gave you your seed to procreate on the earth, not to be released on your hands. Her excitement was given her for you, not to make love to demons.
I really love hearing about her faith and conviction in her most recent interviews. I don't know if joining with someone with an active porn addiction would be the best idea. Sin takes us way further than we want to go and hurts everyone around us. Now if it surfaced during the marriage, then I understand.
@@Wisestomatoe find out what triggers you to watch porn and start weening yourself from it so if Instagram triggers you to watch porn log out of Instagram and hold yourself accountable by not logging in, pray, read books read scripture
The level of man that Essence wants wants a younger and more agreeable woman. She's done out here, but like so many in her position, she doesn't know it.
Listen, this thought is more common than we as women may admit. I grew up on porn like it was a tv show but I've haven't has the desire to watch it over a year ( I can't remember the last time tbh). I know God removed that desire from my heart. Thanks be to God!
5:59 Why's he speaking like us as Black people don't believe in evolution or growth...? "I've been this way so long" is the *laziest* sh/t I ever heard and I said it as a kid with no clue but I never lived by it because change is inevitable. The right decision in any moment is still *the right decision.* The catalyst for your success is in the decisions you make everyday. That "been this way" type beat is played out. If we use that excuse we should never question our failures either and accept God is just giving us the consequences of our actions.
Scripts and situational dynamic can get your mental in trouble. Should a man fanaticize about stepdaughters? Give it a moral evaluation, as many go to some dark places and can't connect with normal people after.
I love that she talks a lot. There's so many people out there that can learn from her. I would think if you were on this podcast you would want to share with others your life experiences. Your testimony would help others and if I'm listening to you, I'm listening to hopefully to learn.
She is being super honest and vulnerable.

I find most people desire porn more when they are sex starved but when they feel sexually fulfilled no desire at all
I’ve always LOVED her! But I love her even more for her transparency, mindset and optimism. ~Vernae~

Respect to her for bein’ open and vulnerable ✊🏾
I really like Essence. I truly believe she's sincere with her walk with the Lord.
This is very Real! I dealt with this struggle. It would be an honor to speak with Gentleman like yourselves. God Bless
She's always seemed the most down to earth to me. I struggle with this right now and from what i see alot of ppl git free of it so salute.
This was so powerful!!! Essence is amazing!!! The Holy Spirit radiates through her!!!

You realize that many people are just like you no matter who they are.
Yes women have these struggles too
Yeah, because all you'll love is the BBC 🍆 especially blk women
We can be unmarried and filled with the Holy Spirit. Keep a daily all day prayer attitude and regular scripture reading.
I’d like her interviews! Essence Atkins is one of the actresses. I respect even more every time I hear her interview. I can’t wait for the next one.

A very nasty demon
@apostlerfabian Masterbation is not a demon. It's actually healthy for you, if you don't overdue it.

@@Poppa_Reedit is evil, stop it! Nothing healthy about it at all
@@apostlerfabianGod ain't real tho

Interviews and platforms like this make me believe there’s still some good in the internet.
Damn this was a real conversation 🫡

Moderation is key. We all know too much of anything can become detrimental.
Wow very candid and honest love the conversation 💖
I first saw porn at 12 years old and haven’t been able to get rid of the demon yet

Grace and Mercy, thank you Jesus, new everyday!!!!!!! Come on Ms Essence!!!❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️
Needed to hear this
Glad to see her keeping it real. Definitely a real woman of God.
As a man thinketh so is he!!!!!
Essence is 🔥🔥🔥🔥
YUP!
I never liked porn like that. They always take things too far and end up grossing me out. My own imagination is better in my opinion 🤷🏽♀️
4:35 "At your age" just say what’s on your mind big dog 😂
Very beautiful , very intelligent, also moral . Very hard to find a woman like that these days

I rebuke that in the name of Jesus! She will be married in Jesus name! Amen!!
@HisGraceIsSufficient555 LOL! Instead of all that, let's leave it up to The Creator's will.
It wasn’t abstaining it was just the absence of a partner that she did. She wasn’t abstaining
Knew i loved this woman for a reason
Essence sayin “hmmm,” at 5:25 is everything
She right ✊🏿
She ain’t lyin, I sometimes watched it just so I would get it out my system instead of goin out & cheatin.
I always see that people mention celibacy but don’t ever mentioned masturbation, are they abstinence from masturbation also?
Man I've always liked her but know I think I'm in love.😍😍😍🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣
@@micklexl1715 simp
I'm wondering why she left her marriage if she has all this great advice and how her ex would describe her as a gf-wife
It takes two to make a marriage work.

Porn is disgusting. Women do disgusting things and it repulses me.
Porn is actually pretty cool and porn satisfies the needs of a lot of single men
So only women are in porn?
Come on, sis ❤❤❤
This is good..
Amen 😇
Satan won’t help you drive our Satan. This is something I heard Marcus Rogers say.
Pornography and masturbation are sacrifices to the demon god molech.
U got alter boi'd! 😂
In all honesty she does resemble the Mary twins
As long as she wasn't looking at no underage or weirdo stuff, she good
@@icegod4767 right … I don’t see it as a bad thing neither lol… and I’m a woman too
I'm trying to get dude with the beard skin care routine. No Diddy
Sounds gay.
Sounds like my upbringing
Swear on everything I love
these kinda woman are exhausting hahaha
How so?
@@latisewilson4561
Women talking makes a mans head hurt. Your woman has your ear so she doesn't need to say much.
Essence is 🍫😘
This is cool
Not going to lie you single at 63 and dont look like your 30 you done
You can alway find someone.
Always
💯💯💯💯💯🙏🏽❤️🥹
She old as dirt what she talking about “next 4 years” 😂
Women don't have a sense of their own time in the way that matches reality.
She's still fine regardless
@ at all!! She really think she got all the time in the world lol
🔥🔥🔥
🙌🏽🙌🏽
That shirt is so Disrespectful to that chain
@@1mic513 hmmm seems like your thought process is what’s disrespectful because you’re lookin at her in a lustful way
Umm, her shirt is not revealing, so not seeing anything disrespectful here
lol not funny but isn’t it something how ppl come & try speak about the word but the revealing clothes they wear says something else!
Nice clickbait title. You made me click...
Essence...will you marry me?
😂😂😂😂😂
This was so good! Thank you Essence for being so transparent and sharing a part of your journey with the world! 🫶🏾
Nothing wrong with porn, there’s just something wrong with the viewer. Usually a mental health issue or the viewer has no discipline. Stay Focused!
Porn is straight demonic, no 🧢

@ I don’t understand what you’re saying..
She talks way too much.......to learn anything.
@@charlesmerchant4762 ego of a woman

Is she not the one being interviewed? Are they not there to get HER story? Its almost like she came there to talk.
@beingmarilyngail8470 Just like Eve.....you'll give your undivided attention to any old Serpent. She learned from him and all of humanity fell.
@sherritrenyse7158 There is a difference between an Interview and a monolog. She's definitely pulling off the latter.
