Please pray for me, I’ve lost nearly all my friends since I’ve found the Lord. Life has been lonely, pray that I find some godly friends who I can be myself around. Thank you, praise God.
set aside time to get to know Jesus through His Holy Spirit. When you grow in the knowledge an fellowship (intimacy) with Him, He will bring beneficial and uplifting friends into your path. But He wants to get to know you first. So that your testimony and relationship with HIm will be strong. Sometimes the wrong friends can draw you back. Trust Him, get to know Him first by talking to Him each and every day...get into that quiet time alone with Him and learn to hear Him speak to you... the righteous friends will be sent into your path and they will be good for you chosen by Him. Let His peace be with you always. "But the Counselor, the Holy Spirit, whom the Father will send in My name, will teach you everything and remind you of all that I told you. Peace I leave with you. My peace I give to you. Not as the world gives do I give to you. Let not your heart be troubled, neither let it be afraid." -John 14:26-27
Maddi I feel exactly the same. Its like I'm a stranger in my own home. I'm beginning to feel that God wants me to be alone so I can draw closer to him. The loneliness is hard. I pray for you, that Christian friends draw near to you soon.
There are so many... Jesus knows and bottles every tear you shed. You are blessed, Jesus had so much to say about people turning their backs on us. And He is well acquainted with every aspect of our sorrows. Take this time to read the Word... Believe me, this time is for you to devour the Word of God... Read Psalms, John, Romans... Just devour it. And know you are never alone. XXOO
My husband and I had the same experience! Went to a festival a few weeks after we were saved since we already had tickets. It was shocking.. we ending just staying in our van reading the bible the most of time. Praying the whole time for everyone there.
So glad to hear others that have been in that scene & then found the Lord & walked away....it's tough because it's 1 of the best churches I've been apart of. But there was no truth in it...& def. no love of Christ. So proud of how yall handled that situation though!!
The enemy always lies. Always lies. I used to torture myself for months after failing to pray when God would tap me on the shoulder. I am older now and I have learned to acknowledge the sin, ask for forgiveness and then keep shoving forward. God finally showed me all the time I was wasting beating myself up after tripping or falling. I do believe we should feel true sorrow and repentance but, you are so right. Be truly sorry, repent, and immediately fix your eyes upon Jesus once again. Kind of like steering a car...readjusting the wheel every time the car begins to stray off the road.
I am praying right now for you Joy, my name is Mercy. I pray that you will see hear and experience the mercy of God and return your joy. God cares for you and He will send you amazing prayer waring friends soon to surround you with love and support. I pray that you will see God's leading and I know he will send you to a loving congregation full of praying saints that will love you sister. Peace and love
@M. Mercy....thank you!!! I did not even ask for prayer but I can see clearly from the information you gave me that the Lord has asked you to do this for me!! You have no idea the family and relationship situation. But your reply alone TELLS me that He has already answered and that He is bringing my children back to the Lord, He is restoring our family relationships and bringing about a reconciliation. And I specifically prayed for friends to be spiritual partners and prayer warriors with me!! You have no idea how much this one little comment has encouraged me! And just as I was about to go into prayer! And I also have a friend who I've been very concerned over whom I was crying over last night. I know now that he is being helped also.Thank you thank you thank you so much! And i love your name, Mercy! Peace & Love to you also. I will pray for you too
Romans 7:15-25 / / / / / 15 I don’t really understand myself, for I want to do what is right, but I don’t do it. Instead, I do what I hate. 16 But if I know that what I am doing is wrong, this shows that I agree that the law is good. 17 So I am not the one doing wrong; it is sin living in me that does it. 18 And I know that nothing good lives in me, that is, in my sinful nature. I want to do what is right, but I can’t. 19 I want to do what is good, but I don’t. I don’t want to do what is wrong, but I do it anyway. 20 But if I do what I don’t want to do, I am not really the one doing wrong; it is sin living in me that does it. 21 I have discovered this principle of life-that when I want to do what is right, I inevitably do what is wrong. 22 I love God’s law with all my heart. 23 But there is another power within me that is at war with my mind. This power makes me a slave to the sin that is still within me. 24 Oh, what a miserable person I am! Who will free me from this life that is dominated by sin and death? 25 Thank God! The answer is in Jesus Christ our Lord. So you see how it is: In my mind I really want to obey God’s law, but because of my sinful nature I am a slave to sin.
I haven’t heard someone speak this purely and just truthfully and candidly about the Lord in a long time. Thank you for being vulnerable and sharing this. It was absolutely refreshing. I can’t wait to see what plans God has in store for you. You are truly a vessel for him. Please continue to take us on your journey. ❤️❤️❤️❤️
Your doing Gods work by sharing your stories. It helps me keep Jesus in my heart. When I feel weak, someone like you is there to help keep me strong. Your shame spreads the love of Christ. We can see the love and joy in your eyes. We see the passion in your smile when you say the name of Jesus. He is alive in you and it helps us here to see that and want to fight to have that for ourselves.
I would not say you backslided, you yielded to temptation, yes, but backsliding is more of a general going away from Him which you did not do. You are able to get advice from others about decisions, yes, and sometimes that is helpful, but you will learn to make decisions with the Lord yourself, becoming your own convictions and growing up into Him. Sometimes God let’s us have what our flesh wants like a child wanting what it wants and the parent wanting the child to learn. God wants you to realize that you really never want to do it again, it’s not worth it. The world will always pull you away from Him. The devil will always say, “it’s alright, what’s the big deal, go ahead”. But as you know, Jesus is so much better than the darkness, even the supposedly fun darkness. Love you so much, thanks for sharing. It is all the pieces that help us get closer to Him. ❤️
I agree back sliding is much more severe and lengthy in the time you stay in that state,. Tripping and falling or backsliding shouldn't be a concern we are born in sin we are bound to do it, that does not by any means give us license to do so it should always be a priority in our harts and mind to avoid it. The one thing that should terrify any true convert is the lack of chastening by the holy spirit. If you sin and in no way does it make you feel sick to the pit of your stomach or guilty in any way, your in serious trouble. Pray constantly and ask for forgiveness He always forgives his children. May Jesus Christ richly bless you in your walk with him.
When fellow believers make videos about confessing sin and weakness I feel so empowered by it because I go through the same struggles. It's so good to know God is continually sanctfying us and moulding us into the image of Jesus. When we know and acknowledge our weakness that is exactly when God's strengths is perfected in us. I'm currently fighting my own battles especially with lust but God is teaching me to abide in Him and He will abide in me. Keep your head up sister. Bet you felt a small burden lifted off your shoulders after confessing your weakness because I do. Anyways God bless you sister!
I would say you are more beautiful every video!! it's the Jesus in you shining progressively brighter!! Your eyes are so different and the joy of the Lord is so visible. I don't call it back sliding but learning who you are. We need to learn that we are not of this world. The things we loved, now we hate. We go from pigs to sheep. Nothing shows it like a sheep getting covered in mud. The enemy will always mess with us in those moments but it's learning who we are in Christ.
Whenever Im in any worldy event or going to dinner parties. I feel the battles too and I ask God to help me. We have spiritual eyes to see the occult and its hard to love the old ways because Jesus has given us new lives. Keep fight my brothers and sisters in Jesus Christ. God bless!
If anything your back sliding seem to make your walk with Jesus stronger & it also showed you how deceived you were in that darkness. I love the scripture that tells us that "His mercies are new every morning!" What a wonderful God we serve!!! Before we even use up His mercies each day, He has new ones waiting for us the very next morning!!! Love your videos & love how you share your love for our Lord! ❤🕊❤
Woaw Chelsea, timely sharing! I've just gone through something so eerily similar, it was absolutely horrible. My backsliding snowballed and I couldn't stop. A part of me was very conscious of what I was doing in real-time but I persisted. God snapped me me out of it but the next few days were scary. I immediately went on a 3 day fast, just praying, reading, crying and kneeling. I was in serious doubt if God would forgive me, because I thought that I went too far since I did the same thing I did in the past (and said I wouldn't). But I didn't know what else to do other than to ask for forgiveness, my only hope was that he'd hear and forgive. After the 3 days, yesterday, it was conveniently Sunday and I went to a church and broke down. Something came over me and I couldn't stop crying. It wasn't like the crying from before, this one was intense. I was already familiar with this, I knew it was the Holy Spirit and I felt forgiven which intensified the crying even more. I learned something very pure though. God's glory shines in his ability to forgive. The guilt that comes with sin is crushing, it literally destroys your soul because you realise the magnitude of your offense against the most beautiful and caring being. Forgiveness is quite literally freeing. I learned something so precious that I don't ever want to forget it. God's forgiveness IS the MOST valuable thing you can ever attain.
You said "I felt this withdraw". In that moment you CHOSE temptation, and when we choose wrongly or for the flesh, it creates what the Bible calls a "Double Mind". The carnal mind is against God, so it cannot submit to God's law, but the Holy Spirit within you can KNOW God when you follow Him. That's why we are saved by Grace, God knew we would mess up but wants us to learn and choose Him because we really want Love. I have dealt with the same thing many times, feeling the temptation to go back to fleshly lust's, and even when I messed up, God still gave me peace again. I learned God was giving me the ability to choose by His grace what I really wanted. Once we abide with God, there is definitely know question to what we really want but we still must endure in those strong temptations. Great testimony, good to hear you learned your lesson. God is going to do great things in you life.
I backslid for 10 years & always knew, I could feel Him tugging at me, that Jesus was waiting for my return. And He took me back, like His only lost child.
Wow! You have so much courage to share this sad story. This is so powerfully helpful to me and I believe others. So much after you’re saved seems to be about people being suddenly perfect and I am not! Thank you.
Thank you for sharing your story of backsliding. I hate that feeling on the other side of these times when you so much wish you hadn't gone there. This shows though that the Holy Spirit was talking to you even in the midst of this moment. I am so thankful for Him and the way He restores us as we confess.
I just want to say, I love that you’re listening to Josh Garrels. ❤️ also. Beautiful experience even though it didn’t feel good at the time. He allows us to go through these things so that we can grow stronger in our relationship with Him 💜 I love Him
Thank you for sharing your testimony! I've only recently come back to the Lord and although I don't do everything right and more than often slip back into the old David, I know the Lord loves me and will not let me go! God loves you too! And He will never let you go!! Even when you slip and fall...even when you can't feel His presence and He seems far, you are His precious daughter and He will remain faithful! Thank you again for sharing your story! :)
Dear sister I am so happy this popped up for me. I have been experiencing a lot of spiritual warfare since my baptism in September 2018. So many things you said have resonated with me and I think that’s why God wanted me to see this, and why He wanted you to share your story for people like me. I hope we can meet someday. Maybe not on earth but somewhere else!! God bless love 💕✝️
The Devil always mixes his vinegar into honey to lead us away from the Lord. Praise God for his mercy and saving grace that is always open arms to return us to the fold. ❤
Dear Chelsea. This is lovely. We all backslide sometimes (even me, and I was a pastor), but Jesus -unlike all the other pretender gods- is the only (true) God who identifies as The Shepherd who will pursue us down bluffs and brambles to retrieve the single lost lamb. It's why he and bishops have a long shepherds crook, to hook us out of brambles and save us with a long reach. Be encouraged C of JisT.
I can't believe how much this story reminds me of myself, I'm sitting at my house so isolated in the middle of nowhere and I've recently have had demonic attacks and the one that I had last time I was asleep I think but I thought I was awake and it took place right where I woke up and a feminine demon was on top of me and seemed to be taking advantage of me and I was paralyzed with fear and struggled to say "Jesus off" because of the amount of fear it's all I could utter out and this evil thing fled from me immediately! Sister I don't know why I feel the need to ask for you or anyone reading this to please pray for me and I love you and everyone reading this!
I remember this happening to me when I was new in my walk, same situation and you really just put words to what I could never describe.. beautiful. Thank you for sharing
I can also relate as an ex raver for almost 3 years. I to loved trance music. And being there all i wanted to do was dance mostly not drugs. But they would project this luciferianism at EDC with the owl and symbolism everywhere Tommorwland with the all seeing eye. And it wasn't until Christ opened my eyes to the false Peace love unity respect moment. Only Jesus Christ can bring true peace and love. I know from experience a lot of people that go to these festivals are broken they take drugs and become this different person. They just don't know satan behind masquerading.
I LITERALLY have the exact same story. I was new in my walk with Christ and my friend had a free ticket for me. The holy spirit was saying I shouldn't go. But I was making every WORLDLY excuse I could make to go and do what I wanted to do there. (drugs/dance) While I was there I could see every reason I shouldn't have been there... and the fight inside me (demons) was more than I've ever felt. I also partook in substances as well.(I Rebeled) I was talking to God when I was there too, praying that all this was ok (so that I could keep doing what I wanted).It was very revealing when I got home from the fest and cried for days as well. Now I know that it was wrong and now I'm closer with God than I have ever been. GOD BLESS YOUR SOUL.
You Will lead a community of Christians through TH-cam Chelsea I know it's the time for all of us here to unite and pray for each other and help each other aswell ...you know you started a great movement here .. keep the good work
I love your new hairstyle!! The devil will always work harder to knock down those who are trying to bring glory to Gods kingdom. You're spreading the gospel, carrying good news!! I pray God continues to bless you!!!! You are wonderful and unique!!!
I've chosen to outcast myself from the world after being ONE with the world for so long. When it gets hard and I start to have some regret of choice... the reality of meeting Jesus in heaven grounds me and reminds me of how lucky I am to be awake to the truth. I love the son of GOD... I love Jesus
Wow, thank you for sharing.. I can relate so much. When I came back to Christ, I was so ashamed and regretful, fearful, and the enemy was bombarding my mind with lies. It was a time of sackcloth and ashes. I’m so grateful for the love of Christ and His mercy! Hallelujah! God Bless you sister. God is using you to touch many, your a blessing
I back slided and feel horrible I found myself cussing and being mean and then I started to listen to all the music I used to before I was saved and I snapped out of it and recognize it and I try to repent. I'll make it into heaven at a half a mile a day stumbled and falling on the way! Praise God.
That happened to me exactly the same thing in a different setting. I started drinking at my work and I got the pride of life in me and I forgot everything about Christ and fell into all old sins but by God's grace he called me back but it came with a lot of pain.
God bless you. Your story literally mirrors my life. I just got to the bottom of the pit with backsliding. I was in the occult world in the music industry for years and its a constant battle to be sober. Praise Jesus I know he will strengthen me. Thank you so much for making your videos.
I had a period of time a good few years when I had backslidden from The Lord, I still prayed and read scriptures but not as feverently and often as I did before. I was hanging out with non-believers going to pubs , parties and drinking to excess etc. I had a major wake up call and then I returned wholeheartedly To The Lord in willing surrender of those thing that once held me. After praying and repenting I was given a vision of me riding on a horse on a Carousel merry go round (the type you find at a fairground) . Whilst I was on that merry go round I kept sliding back and off the saddle. We can be in the world but not a part of it, if we try to go back to our old ways of carousing , parties and having a merry old time we will surely back slide and Jesus will lose first place in our hearts. No more merry go rounds for me!
I’ve just discovered your channel so I’m looking through some of your older videos and you’re making a sister cry right now. I used to feel really close with Christ, but then I would have these long long periods of basically not feeling Him at all and I stopped praying and got sucked into social media and I’m in one of those periods now and I just feel like a lost cause so it’s really good to know that I can come out of it stronger than before.
Oh my gosh thanks a million for this message! I have certainly backlsided into addiction for awhile and I felt the same sadness and guiltiness/unworthiness you have. This message is waking me up I thank the Lord for putting this on your heart to share!
Thank u for posting this, I just gave my life to Jesus this year in July. But too have backslided & have been having hardship since. Went to AA because my flesh is still strong compared to my spirit. It's hard I feel my whole body disregarding my spirit, & it is so heart breaking. Praise Jesus for the work he's done so far & about to do. I want to live for Jesus
You look like a different person physically...it's amazing! Jesus is awesome! Just stay close to Jesus, you are going to make many mistakes in your walk, he knows we struggle daily, we all fall every day! Bless you, the ones God uses most will come under the most attack, so take heart and hold on, he's got a journey for you I believe? : )
Me too! Wow! Alcohol/ weed/ not saying what else.. The world & flesh can be a nightmare. But prayer & sorrow has got me back in line with the most high don't want to do that again! May His peace be with you always Amen
I really appreciate your honesty about the difficult moments in your walk with the Lord. And it is very difficult to speak of those times when we fall, but a righteous man falls 7 times and stands up 7 times. The Lord opened your eyes to a greater love and desire for him and faithfulness even. To feel the holyspirit depart from grieving the holyspirit is very sad and its something that no child of God would ever want. Thank you for never pretending like its easy or that there are no moments of weakness or learning! Really appreciate it sister! Godbless you!!
Thank you for sharing, I listened to several videos today at work and got so much out of them. Your humility and transparently are so drawing. We all go through things as children of God. God is sure using you as a vessel to share his love.
Thanks for sharing Chelsea. You've been honest. He will take you again but this time you need to win those souls for Him. Pray and prepare well this time. So when you go you go and get your friends back for Jesus.whats very important is how you finish the race. So finish it well and it goes for all of us. God bless. May the new year be a joyous year and may the Lord draw you closer to Him and use you in great and amazing ways to reach out to the unsaved and the lost. God bless you.
The more videos I watch of yours the more I realise we are a lot allike! I was never into wichcraft but I was all up in the world drinking, smoking, drugs and sin. I also have dealt with sleep paralysis which I have already mentioned in other videos of yours. Every time I see a title to one of your videos I'm like that's me too. God is opening my eyes with the nightmares and night terrors and. I'm finally waking up. I'm changing for the better and I relate so much with your story!!! I'm hard on myself as well but God loves us so much and he will never forsake us. Thank you so much! God bless you.
That was not the Holy Spirit withdrawing from you. It was you choosing sin over God. God allowed this to bring you closer to Him. Thank you for your testimony - Praise Jesus!
Jim McIntyre Jim I'm also a Christian and I love our God I love how this Christian sister preachers about the holy spirit we are an army of God I love our God amen brother
When Jesus sweat blood in the garden before His crucifixion, it wasn’t out of distress for the physical suffering He was about to face but for the guilt and sin that would touch Him. Never in all eternity had He been separated from the Father like He was about to be. In the end He cried “My God my God what have you forsaken me!” He suffered that rejection and separation from God so that we would never have to again! He will never leave us or forsake us, even when our own foolishness brings us to the den of the enemy 💚
Thank you Chelsea. I pray that MANY of my friends see your videos as they have been living almost everything you've experienced in terms of the pagan, new age etc etc etc and I see in them everything you've described about yourself. A destruction path "covered in beautiful" and the "pressure" on themselves to keep putting out what they want in return and that horrible cycle. Especially the ''pride" of their "spritualism" Very thankful for you and your testimony.
He was in control. You were his light shining amongst the multitude of enemies of the Divine purpose. He will exalt you in their midst. He was simply claiming his own. What JESUS HAS SPOKEN SO SHALL IT BE.
Yea substances will envelope entirely in the world and the flesh and therefore severely weaken the connection to the Holy Spirit and the lord. That’s why now that I am ALL IN for Jesus and have experienced his promises and and joy in full, I barely want to even have a sip of alcohol because I don’t want to tamper with my connection to Christ. I went from drinking the most every time to “I’m driving!” all the time 😂 Praise Jesus!!!! Keep building those foundation so you can immediately comeback from a fall. Much love God bless
I've heard a few of your videos and I'm so blessed by how you express your faith in Jesus. I'm 53, I have been a church leader, and I am taking a break in order to pursue a more local body of believers than we have been with in the last 11 years at more of a distance than we can now commit to. I have some disappointment and I just need rest for my spirit. Our children are older now and have had spiritual troubles but the Lord is faithful and they see him more clearly now. We have found the Lord to be sufficient and I'm so thankful that you have expressed your faith in the midst of very turbulent and chaotic circumstances. The joy you felt when you truly rested in Christ meant so much to me to hear and your story is like a breath of fresh air and an answer to prayer for my own spirit because I want to love the Lord and his word in a fresh way. Thank you for being a channel of Grace from the Lord!
I just found you and I am watching your videos. You are Salt and light. Praise the Lord Jesus Christ that he saved us and that he is coming back again soon. Keep it up with your videos. The world is lost and confused and in desperate need of our savior. This platform allows you to reach potentially millions and millions of people. Shalom from Lexington Kentucky. You speak the truth and your words strike a chord in the heart. The Holy Spirit will direct his sheep to your videos.
Thank you so much for allowing yourself to feel vulnerable and sharing your testimony with us. It is very much appreciated and valued from which we can all learn. God Bless. :)
Wow I love you so much ❤️ if I ever get a chance to meet you I would be so blessed 😭 your testimony resonates so closely with mine and your words are always so encouraging to me - you really let me know that I’m not alone in this world and I appreciate you so much for finding the strength to talk about these things ... because people need to hear it
I so can relate to this. Had this experience recently and it is truly the worst. I thank God for His amazing love and patience with us. It truly breaks the heart especially knowing His love. Its empty this life without Him, once you know what it's like having Him. The good thing that comes out of it is that we learn and grow and it is a process as Paul wrote. We just have to keep our eyes and hearts on Jesus no matter what and rely solely as we started, innHis grace in hope of maturing in perfection til His coming as promised in the world. God's love truly is inspirational and I am thankful that He is working in you sis. Keep your head up, abide in Jesus and may God bless and keep you in Jesus name! Thank you for such a genuine testimony..... All my love! Glory to God!!
Your spirit and heart are both so beautiful and so pure and genuine, He sees your heart. He knows that you are genuine ❤️ Your guilt and remorse are evidence you’re still walking with Him! A truly calloused backslidden person cannot feel or hear His voice at all, their conscience is seared. In my experience I’ve found that it is never Him Who walks away from us, but we walk away from Him. He never lets go or stops pursuing 💓 nothing can separate us from the love of God! Better than we deserve, but it’s because of what He did..we can never earn or try to work for His salvation or grace or anything like that..it’s already been done, we just have to rest in it! Rest in Him Bless you lady, your story really touched my heart. And your love makes me want to know Him and love Him more. Your heart for Him is beautiful
Hey we all sometimes, unfortunately, do things like that or make mistakes... thank you Lord for Jesus and for His an ending love for us... Yay Gog... tks for sharing greetings from South Africa
Your absolutely beautiful! I wish I could pull off my hair being this short. I came across your testimony & I just want to say thank you for sharing! You have the holy spirit speaking through you. It shows all over you! Child of God. Jesus is wonderful! God bles you and your family 😇
I absolutely loved hearing this, and also really needed to hear this! I need to keep close to the Lord and stop as you said forgetting him 🥰♥️ thank you so much!! I also really loved how you mentioned how when we backslide and come back to the Lord it projects us further in our walk with him.. made me think of a sling shot as silly as that sounds, we pull back but as soon as you let it all go and give it to Christ we SLING forward in our walk 🥰🥰🥰🥰 God Bless YOU ♥️🥰
This was encouraging, thank you. It is amazing how we all need reminding that God is number one. It is so easy to get caught up in worldly desires and ambition, but actually nothing will ever fulfil like God does.
I also was backsliding about a week ago..also dont feel worthy and ashamed! Praying for the holy spirit to return and continue to guide me...lesson learned indeed! Thank you for this video.. i surely needed it RIGHT NOW. With love God Bless you!
I just love you sister. I say that in the full sincerity of the Holy Spirit. You express everthing I feel in my heart. Everytime you speak I feel the Holy Spirit all around you. Oh the power of our Father and friend. Thank you for making me cry : ) All glory to God.
Such a tough testimony to share. Thank you. A testament to the fact that Satan is always on our heels trying to break us down and lead us back to the darkness.
I have a similar story. I rejoicing that you are now back on the right side, which is only in Jesus Christ. His grace a mercy is sufficient for thee. Love you be encouraged
The more you mature in your walk with the Lord, the more you will recognize when the enemy tries to get in, but our nature is to be stubborn and in rebellion and even the most seasoned Christians will backslide at times. That was beautifully shared...thank you!
God richly bless and keep you as you walk this beautiful and challenging path. The challenge being to stay trusting, obedient and repentantly bringing my shortfalls to God as I/we mess up - even when I/we know better. Thank you for your honesty. It was most encouraging to me. I fully understand the points you made about ‘hiding’ as it were from God when I’ve taken a wrong move/turn, given in to the desires of the flesh that create that ‘feeling’ of apartness/bit by bit separation. Not feeling that you can or have the right to approach or talk to Him when one has sinned. It’s so important to remember to go Him anyway- staying away makes matters worse. It’s not to take advantage of God’s infinite grace(though that’s exactly how I feel) but to receive correction to move forward. When I’m fed up with myself/walk, in that I want to do and be ‘better’ and I feel so unworthy (which we are) I remember Christ died for a wretch like me and while I have breathe in my body, I will continue to strive to walk uprightly and please Him, simply because I love Him so much , He’s so good to me and I’m overwhelmed by His great love, mercy, peace, joy and protection His plan of salvation extends to me and all.

Please pray for me, I’ve lost nearly all my friends since I’ve found the Lord. Life has been lonely, pray that I find some godly friends who I can be myself around. Thank you, praise God.
Find a church 💓 Calvery chapel is a good one !
set aside time to get to know Jesus through His Holy Spirit. When you grow in the knowledge an fellowship (intimacy) with Him, He will bring beneficial and uplifting friends into your path. But He wants to get to know you first. So that your testimony and relationship with HIm will be strong. Sometimes the wrong friends can draw you back. Trust Him, get to know Him first by talking to Him each and every day...get into that quiet time alone with Him and learn to hear Him speak to you...
the righteous friends will be sent into your path and they will be good for you chosen by Him.
Let His peace be with you always.
"But the Counselor, the Holy Spirit, whom the Father will send in My name, will teach you everything and remind you of all that I told you. Peace I leave with you. My peace I give to you. Not as the world gives do I give to you. Let not your heart be troubled, neither let it be afraid."
-John 14:26-27
@@chanson2431 This! Wisdom! Amen!
Maddi I feel exactly the same. Its like I'm a stranger in my own home. I'm beginning to feel that God wants me to be alone so I can draw closer to him. The loneliness is hard. I pray for you, that Christian friends draw near to you soon.
There are so many... Jesus knows and bottles every tear you shed. You are blessed, Jesus had so much to say about people turning their backs on us. And He is well acquainted with every aspect of our sorrows. Take this time to read the Word... Believe me, this time is for you to devour the Word of God... Read Psalms, John, Romans... Just devour it. And know you are never alone. XXOO
My husband and I had the same experience! Went to a festival a few weeks after we were saved since we already had tickets. It was shocking.. we ending just staying in our van reading the bible the most of time. Praying the whole time for everyone there.
Awww so lovely you were both saved together xxx
Jesus is truth yes! Praise God!
You should of had a beer and a dance were not meant to be freak in out all the time
Derek and Aubriel+ Good testimony
So glad to hear others that have been in that scene & then found the Lord & walked away....it's tough because it's 1 of the best churches I've been apart of. But there was no truth in it...& def. no love of Christ. So proud of how yall handled that situation though!!
Just the fact you know you messed up shows you're born again, you hear and see the holy spirit working in you. Keep chasing God love ya.
Z Will amen 🙏
The enemy always lies. Always lies. I used to torture myself for months after failing to pray when God would tap me on the shoulder. I am older now and I have learned to acknowledge the sin, ask for forgiveness and then keep shoving forward. God finally showed me all the time I was wasting beating myself up after tripping or falling. I do believe we should feel true sorrow and repentance but, you are so right. Be truly sorry, repent, and immediately fix your eyes upon Jesus once again. Kind of like steering a car...readjusting the wheel every time the car begins to stray off the road.
Joy Wendt Amen amen amen!! ptL
I am praying right now for you Joy, my name is Mercy. I pray that you will see hear and experience the mercy of God and return your joy. God cares for you and He will send you amazing prayer waring friends soon to surround you with love and support. I pray that you will see God's leading and I know he will send you to a loving congregation full of praying saints that will love you sister. Peace and love
@M. Mercy....thank you!!! I did not even ask for prayer but I can see clearly from the information you gave me that the Lord has asked you to do this for me!! You have no idea the family and relationship situation. But your reply alone TELLS me that He has already answered and that He is bringing my children back to the Lord, He is restoring our family relationships and bringing about a reconciliation. And I specifically prayed for friends to be spiritual partners and prayer warriors with me!! You have no idea how much this one little comment has encouraged me! And just as I was about to go into prayer! And I also have a friend who I've been very concerned over whom I was crying over last night. I know now that he is being helped also.Thank you thank you thank you so much! And i love your name, Mercy! Peace & Love to you also. I will pray for you too
Romans 7:15-25
/ / / / /
15 I don’t really understand myself, for I want to do what is right, but I don’t do it. Instead, I do what I hate. 16 But if I know that what I am doing is wrong, this shows that I agree that the law is good. 17 So I am not the one doing wrong; it is sin living in me that does it. 18 And I know that nothing good lives in me, that is, in my sinful nature. I want to do what is right, but I can’t. 19 I want to do what is good, but I don’t. I don’t want to do what is wrong, but I do it anyway. 20 But if I do what I don’t want to do, I am not really the one doing wrong; it is sin living in me that does it. 21 I have discovered this principle of life-that when I want to do what is right, I inevitably do what is wrong. 22 I love God’s law with all my heart. 23 But there is another power within me that is at war with my mind. This power makes me a slave to the sin that is still within me. 24 Oh, what a miserable person I am! Who will free me from this life that is dominated by sin and death? 25 Thank God! The answer is in Jesus Christ our Lord. So you see how it is: In my mind I really want to obey God’s law, but because of my sinful nature I am a slave to sin.
Indeed
The narrow path is a journey and most do not find it..You have discernment and will be all good ..God is working thru you..Blessings my Friend..
I haven’t heard someone speak this purely and just truthfully and candidly about the Lord in a long time. Thank you for being vulnerable and sharing this. It was absolutely refreshing. I can’t wait to see what plans God has in store for you. You are truly a vessel for him. Please continue to take us on your journey. ❤️❤️❤️❤️
Your doing Gods work by sharing your stories. It helps me keep Jesus in my heart. When I feel weak, someone like you is there to help keep me strong. Your shame spreads the love of Christ. We can see the love and joy in your eyes. We see the passion in your smile when you say the name of Jesus. He is alive in you and it helps us here to see that and want to fight to have that for ourselves.
I would not say you backslided, you yielded to temptation, yes, but backsliding is more of a general going away from Him which you did not do. You are able to get advice from others about decisions, yes, and sometimes that is helpful, but you will learn to make decisions with the Lord yourself, becoming your own convictions and growing up into Him. Sometimes God let’s us have what our flesh wants like a child wanting what it wants and the parent wanting the child to learn. God wants you to realize that you really never want to do it again, it’s not worth it. The world will always pull you away from Him. The devil will always say, “it’s alright, what’s the big deal, go ahead”. But as you know, Jesus is so much better than the darkness, even the supposedly fun darkness. Love you so much, thanks for sharing. It is all the pieces that help us get closer to Him. ❤️
I agree back sliding is much more severe and lengthy in the time you stay in that state,. Tripping and falling or backsliding shouldn't be a concern we are born in sin we are bound to do it, that does not by any means give us license to do so it should always be a priority in our harts and mind to avoid it. The one thing that should terrify any true convert is the lack of chastening by the holy spirit. If you sin and in no way does it make you feel sick to the pit of your stomach or guilty in any way, your in serious trouble. Pray constantly and ask for forgiveness He always forgives his children. May Jesus Christ richly bless you in your walk with him.
You couldn’t have said it better. Thank you for clarifying it and the words of encouragement. God bless you 💕
Exactly
When fellow believers make videos about confessing sin and weakness I feel so empowered by it because I go through the same struggles. It's so good to know God is continually sanctfying us and moulding us into the image of Jesus. When we know and acknowledge our weakness that is exactly when God's strengths is perfected in us. I'm currently fighting my own battles especially with lust but God is teaching me to abide in Him and He will abide in me. Keep your head up sister. Bet you felt a small burden lifted off your shoulders after confessing your weakness because I do. Anyways God bless you sister!
I would say you are more beautiful every video!! it's the Jesus in you shining progressively brighter!!
Your eyes are so different and the joy of the Lord is so visible.
I don't call it back sliding but learning who you are.
We need to learn that we are not of this world. The things we loved, now we hate. We go from pigs to sheep. Nothing shows it like a sheep getting covered in mud. The enemy will always mess with us in those moments but it's learning who we are in Christ.
Whenever Im in any worldy event or going to dinner parties. I feel the battles too and I ask God to help me. We have spiritual eyes to see the occult and its hard to love the old ways because Jesus has given us new lives. Keep fight my brothers and sisters in Jesus Christ. God bless!
I felt the same exact thing when I first fell after I've been saved. The withdrawal of the Holy Spirit.
He is with you still xx
God Bless you Sis x
let's pray for all new age people, so they will come to the lord :)
god bless u, brothers and sisters.
best greetings from east Germany :)
It’s about 03.15 in the morning and I am watching this. I have been so blessed by your testimony.
If anything your back sliding seem to make your walk with Jesus stronger & it also showed you how deceived you were in that darkness. I love the scripture that tells us that "His mercies are new every morning!" What a wonderful God we serve!!! Before we even use up His mercies each day, He has new ones waiting for us the very next morning!!! Love your videos & love how you share your love for our Lord! ❤🕊❤
Woaw Chelsea, timely sharing!
I've just gone through something so eerily similar, it was absolutely horrible.
My backsliding snowballed and I couldn't stop. A part of me was very conscious of what I was doing in real-time but I persisted. God snapped me me out of it but the next few days were scary. I immediately went on a 3 day fast, just praying, reading, crying and kneeling. I was in serious doubt if God would forgive me, because I thought that I went too far since I did the same thing I did in the past (and said I wouldn't). But I didn't know what else to do other than to ask for forgiveness, my only hope was that he'd hear and forgive.
After the 3 days, yesterday, it was conveniently Sunday and I went to a church and broke down. Something came over me and I couldn't stop crying. It wasn't like the crying from before, this one was intense. I was already familiar with this, I knew it was the Holy Spirit and I felt forgiven which intensified the crying even more.
I learned something very pure though. God's glory shines in his ability to forgive. The guilt that comes with sin is crushing, it literally destroys your soul because you realise the magnitude of your offense against the most beautiful and caring being. Forgiveness is quite literally freeing. I learned something so precious that I don't ever want to forget it. God's forgiveness IS the MOST valuable thing you can ever attain.
Amen! 💓💓💓💓💓
It can be hard to give up past things! I've felt a lot like that too so remember you are not alone in this.
@@bunnypixel7412 "God's forgiveness IS the MOST valuable thing you can ever attain" Yes! We must let the world know!
I don't think you mean attain as it is not of you friend, receive is probably a better word. May the Most High bless you.
What a magnificent, gracious, kind and forgiving Lord we serve! Hallelujah!
You said "I felt this withdraw". In that moment you CHOSE temptation, and when we choose wrongly or for the flesh, it creates what the Bible calls a "Double Mind". The carnal mind is against God, so it cannot submit to God's law, but the Holy Spirit within you can KNOW God when you follow Him. That's why we are saved by Grace, God knew we would mess up but wants us to learn and choose Him because we really want Love.
I have dealt with the same thing many times, feeling the temptation to go back to fleshly lust's, and even when I messed up, God still gave me peace again. I learned God was giving me the ability to choose by His grace what I really wanted. Once we abide with God, there is definitely know question to what we really want but we still must endure in those strong temptations. Great testimony, good to hear you learned your lesson. God is going to do great things in you life.
I backslid for 10 years & always knew, I could feel Him tugging at me, that Jesus was waiting for my return. And He took me back, like His only lost child.
Don't focus on the 'horrible thing' you did. Focus on the Father's love & forgiveness!
Cheryl Smith Thats what I’ve been going through! A long backslide.. I hope it’s not too late for me.
Melina - NEVER GIVE UP! Jesus never gives up on you!
I am one min into the video but I just want to thank you for your transparency. Your testimony is important , especially for young believers.
This is all of us when we backslide...I love listening to your journey..from a fellow christian who battles with the world.
Wow! You have so much courage to share this sad story. This is so powerfully helpful to me and I believe others. So much after you’re saved seems to be about people being suddenly perfect and I am not! Thank you.
Thank you for sharing this. You are a blessing to watch. God is so good to us!
Thank you for sharing your story of backsliding. I hate that feeling on the other side of these times when you so much wish you hadn't gone there. This shows though that the Holy Spirit was talking to you even in the midst of this moment. I am so thankful for Him and the way He restores us as we confess.
John Smit the holy spirit is always there we have to have him in our Lives I'm also a Christian and yes not a perfect one but hey who isn't
I just want to say, I love that you’re listening to Josh Garrels. ❤️ also. Beautiful experience even though it didn’t feel good at the time. He allows us to go through these things so that we can grow stronger in our relationship with Him 💜 I love Him
Thank you for sharing your testimony! I've only recently come back to the Lord and although I don't do everything right and more than often slip back into the old David, I know the Lord loves me and will not let me go! God loves you too! And He will never let you go!! Even when you slip and fall...even when you can't feel His presence and He seems far, you are His precious daughter and He will remain faithful! Thank you again for sharing your story! :)
Dear sister I am so happy this popped up for me. I have been experiencing a lot of spiritual warfare since my baptism in September 2018. So many things you said have resonated with me and I think that’s why God wanted me to see this, and why He wanted you to share your story for people like me. I hope we can meet someday. Maybe not on earth but somewhere else!! God bless love 💕✝️
Praise Jesus 💓
The Devil always mixes his vinegar into honey to lead us away from the Lord. Praise God for his mercy and saving grace that is always open arms to return us to the fold. ❤
feeling of disconnection is not much fun, i love your videos they do all the outward processing of also my own experiences allowing closure
That glow. Yes. I'm seeking that again. God bless you Chelsea. 🙏
Dear Chelsea. This is lovely. We all backslide sometimes (even me, and I was a pastor), but Jesus -unlike all the other pretender gods- is the only (true) God who identifies as The Shepherd who will pursue us down bluffs and brambles to retrieve the single lost lamb. It's why he and bishops have a long shepherds crook, to hook us out of brambles and save us with a long reach. Be encouraged C of JisT.
I can't believe how much this story reminds me of myself, I'm sitting at my house so isolated in the middle of nowhere and I've recently have had demonic attacks and the one that I had last time I was asleep I think but I thought I was awake and it took place right where I woke up and a feminine demon was on top of me and seemed to be taking advantage of me and I was paralyzed with fear and struggled to say "Jesus off" because of the amount of fear it's all I could utter out and this evil thing fled from me immediately! Sister I don't know why I feel the need to ask for you or anyone reading this to please pray for me and I love you and everyone reading this!
I remember this happening to me when I was new in my walk, same situation and you really just put words to what I could never describe.. beautiful. Thank you for sharing
I can also relate as an ex raver for almost 3 years. I to loved trance music. And being there all i wanted to do was dance mostly not drugs. But they would project this luciferianism at EDC with the owl and symbolism everywhere Tommorwland with the all seeing eye. And it wasn't until Christ opened my eyes to the false Peace love unity respect moment. Only Jesus Christ can bring true peace and love. I know from experience a lot of people that go to these festivals are broken they take drugs and become this different person. They just don't know satan behind masquerading.
Oh my GOD ... I had no idea such BEAUTY existed ! Thank you & GOD BE WITH YOU
Backsliding was torturous for me too!!! Thank you God for letting us back into your flock!!! Hallelujah!
I LITERALLY have the exact same story. I was new in my walk with Christ and my friend had a free ticket for me. The holy spirit was saying I shouldn't go. But I was making every WORLDLY excuse I could make to go and do what I wanted to do there. (drugs/dance) While I was there I could see every reason I shouldn't have been there... and the fight inside me (demons) was more than I've ever felt. I also partook in substances as well.(I Rebeled) I was talking to God when I was there too, praying that all this was ok (so that I could keep doing what I wanted).It was very revealing when I got home from the fest and cried for days as well. Now I know that it was wrong and now I'm closer with God than I have ever been. GOD BLESS YOUR SOUL.
You Will lead a community of Christians through TH-cam Chelsea I know it's the time for all of us here to unite and pray for each other and help each other aswell ...you know you started a great movement here .. keep the good work
lorddiosliving she working fore the lord
So humbling and so lovely. Humility is what gets us saved.
I love your new hairstyle!!
The devil will always work harder to knock down those who are trying to bring glory to Gods kingdom. You're spreading the gospel, carrying good news!! I pray God continues to bless you!!!!
You are wonderful and unique!!!
God bless you sister. Thank you for your sincerity. Your love for the Lord is obvious. Your expression from your heart has encouraged me
You look so healthy I love it
It's crazy how easy it is to be decieved, it's definitely the last days. My heart breaks for my blind friends ♥
I've chosen to outcast myself from the world after being ONE with the world for so long. When it gets hard and I start to have some regret of choice... the reality of meeting Jesus in heaven grounds me and reminds me of how lucky I am to be awake to the truth. I love the son of GOD... I love Jesus

Wow, thank you for sharing.. I can relate so much. When I came back to Christ, I was so ashamed and regretful, fearful, and the enemy was bombarding my mind with lies. It was a time of sackcloth and ashes. I’m so grateful for the love of Christ and His mercy! Hallelujah! God Bless you sister. God is using you to touch many, your a blessing
Can you elaborate? i am going through this
I back slided and feel horrible I found myself cussing and being mean and then I started to listen to all the music I used to before I was saved and I snapped out of it and recognize it and I try to repent. I'll make it into heaven at a half a mile a day stumbled and falling on the way! Praise God.
God richly bless you, you have no idea how much God has used you to bless and encourage me in my walk with Him. Stay blessed :)
That happened to me exactly the same thing in a different setting. I started drinking at my work and I got the pride of life in me and I forgot everything about Christ and fell into all old sins but by God's grace he called me back but it came with a lot of pain.
Did you get attacked when you came back or suffer from guilt for awhile?
Girl I can hear Josh Garrels on the background, I love him! His music is so godly and has influenced my faith a lot
God bless you. Your story literally mirrors my life.
I just got to the bottom of the pit with backsliding. I was in the occult world in the music industry for years and its a constant battle to be sober. Praise Jesus I know he will strengthen me.
Thank you so much for making your videos.
I had a period of time a good few years when I had backslidden from The Lord, I still prayed and read scriptures but not as feverently and often as I did before. I was hanging out with non-believers going to pubs , parties and drinking to excess etc. I had a major wake up call and then I returned wholeheartedly To The Lord in willing surrender of those thing that once held me. After praying and repenting I was given a vision of me riding on a horse on a Carousel merry go round (the type you find at a fairground) . Whilst I was on that merry go round I kept sliding back and off the saddle. We can be in the world but not a part of it, if we try to go back to our old ways of carousing , parties and having a merry old time we will surely back slide and Jesus will lose first place in our hearts. No more merry go rounds for me!
I’ve just discovered your channel so I’m looking through some of your older videos and you’re making a sister cry right now. I used to feel really close with Christ, but then I would have these long long periods of basically not feeling Him at all and I stopped praying and got sucked into social media and I’m in one of those periods now and I just feel like a lost cause so it’s really good to know that I can come out of it stronger than before.
This resonates with me so much rn!! It's so hard and you feel such guilt and hollowness once you feel that distance from God. I cried along with you!
Oh my gosh thanks a million for this message! I have certainly backlsided into addiction for awhile and I felt the same sadness and guiltiness/unworthiness you have. This message is waking me up I thank the Lord for putting this on your heart to share!
Thank u for posting this, I just gave my life to Jesus this year in July. But too have backslided & have been having hardship since.
Went to AA because my flesh is still strong compared to my spirit.
It's hard I feel my whole body disregarding my spirit, & it is so heart breaking. Praise Jesus for the work he's done so far & about to do. I want to live for Jesus
How are you now ?
Love your honesty.💜 God Bless you and thank you for sharing your journey! 🙏
You look like a different person physically...it's amazing! Jesus is awesome! Just stay close to Jesus, you are going to make many mistakes in your walk, he knows we struggle daily, we all fall every day! Bless you, the ones God uses most will come under the most attack, so take heart and hold on, he's got a journey for you I believe? : )
Amen brother thankyou Jesus for this encouraging message 😃
Me too! Wow! Alcohol/ weed/ not saying what else.. The world & flesh can be a nightmare. But prayer & sorrow has got me back in line with the most high don't want to do that again! May His peace be with you always Amen
Did you feel condemnation and scared reading the bible?
I really appreciate your honesty about the difficult moments in your walk with the Lord. And it is very difficult to speak of those times when we fall, but a righteous man falls 7 times and stands up 7 times. The Lord opened your eyes to a greater love and desire for him and faithfulness even. To feel the holyspirit depart from grieving the holyspirit is very sad and its something that no child of God would ever want. Thank you for never pretending like its easy or that there are no moments of weakness or learning! Really appreciate it sister! Godbless you!!
Thanks so much for sharing. You are a New Creation in Christ😄
Galatians 5:1 Stand fast therefore in the liberty wherewith Christ hath made us free, and be not entangled again with the yoke of bondage.
Thank you for sharing, I listened to several videos today at work and got so much out of them. Your humility and transparently are so drawing. We all go through things as children of God. God is sure using you as a vessel to share his love.
Thanks for sharing Chelsea. You've been honest. He will take you again but this time you need to win those souls for Him. Pray and prepare well this time. So when you go you go and get your friends back for Jesus.whats very important is how you finish the race. So finish it well and it goes for all of us. God bless. May the new year be a joyous year and may the Lord draw you closer to Him and use you in great and amazing ways to reach out to the unsaved and the lost. God bless you.
The more videos I watch of yours the more I realise we are a lot allike! I was never into wichcraft but I was all up in the world drinking, smoking, drugs and sin. I also have dealt with sleep paralysis which I have already mentioned in other videos of yours. Every time I see a title to one of your videos I'm like that's me too. God is opening my eyes with the nightmares and night terrors and. I'm finally waking up. I'm changing for the better and I relate so much with your story!!! I'm hard on myself as well but God loves us so much and he will never forsake us. Thank you so much! God bless you.
I love your videos, sweet sister. Thank you ❤️
That was not the Holy Spirit withdrawing from you. It was you choosing sin over God. God allowed this to bring you closer to Him. Thank you for your testimony - Praise Jesus!
Jim McIntyre Jim I'm also a Christian and I love our God I love how this Christian sister preachers about the holy spirit we are an army of God I love our God amen brother
You're such a lovely person! ❤ I'll pray for you.
your testimonies are POWERFUL, AWESOME, AND BRING GREAT GLORY TO OUR SAVIOR!! soo goooood!!!
You look like an angel. True beauty personified. I pray I meet someone as devoted to the Father and as easy on the eyes as you. God Bless!
When Jesus sweat blood in the garden before His crucifixion, it wasn’t out of distress for the physical suffering He was about to face but for the guilt and sin that would touch Him. Never in all eternity had He been separated from the Father like He was about to be. In the end He cried “My God my God what have you forsaken me!” He suffered that rejection and separation from God so that we would never have to again! He will never leave us or forsake us, even when our own foolishness brings us to the den of the enemy 💚
Amen 💓💓💓 praise you God!
Thank you Chelsea. I pray that MANY of my friends see your videos as they have been living almost everything you've experienced in terms of the pagan, new age etc etc etc and I see in them everything you've described about yourself. A destruction path "covered in beautiful" and the "pressure" on themselves to keep putting out what they want in return and that horrible cycle. Especially the ''pride" of their "spritualism" Very thankful for you and your testimony.
He was in control. You were his light shining amongst the multitude of enemies of the Divine purpose. He will exalt you in their midst. He was simply claiming his own. What JESUS HAS SPOKEN SO SHALL IT BE.
really love your videos sister, they are so encouraging and so similar to my own experience!! Thank you for sharing!
Thanks for being transparent, it helps to look at myself more and where I’m at with the Lord and feel I’m not alone❤️
So glad it helps sending love and prayers x
Thank you for sharing. :) Love and blessings to you too. By the way I love what you've done to your hair. :)
Yea substances will envelope entirely in the world and the flesh and therefore severely weaken the connection to the Holy Spirit and the lord. That’s why now that I am ALL IN for Jesus and have experienced his promises and and joy in full, I barely want to even have a sip of alcohol because I don’t want to tamper with my connection to Christ.
I went from drinking the most every time to “I’m driving!” all the time 😂
Praise Jesus!!!!
Keep building those foundation so you can immediately comeback from a fall.
Much love God bless
I've heard a few of your videos and I'm so blessed by how you express your faith in Jesus. I'm 53, I have been a church leader, and I am taking a break in order to pursue a more local body of believers than we have been with in the last 11 years at more of a distance than we can now commit to. I have some disappointment and I just need rest for my spirit. Our children are older now and have had spiritual troubles but the Lord is faithful and they see him more clearly now. We have found the Lord to be sufficient and I'm so thankful that you have expressed your faith in the midst of very turbulent and chaotic circumstances. The joy you felt when you truly rested in Christ meant so much to me to hear and your story is like a breath of fresh air and an answer to prayer for my own spirit because I want to love the Lord and his word in a fresh way. Thank you for being a channel of Grace from the Lord!
What a lovely lady God Bless and thanks for your testimony
I just found you and I am watching your videos. You are Salt and light. Praise the Lord Jesus Christ that he saved us and that he is coming back again soon. Keep it up with your videos. The world is lost and confused and in desperate need of our savior. This platform allows you to reach potentially millions and millions of people. Shalom from Lexington Kentucky. You speak the truth and your words strike a chord in the heart. The Holy Spirit will direct his sheep to your videos.
Thank you so much for allowing yourself to feel vulnerable and sharing your testimony with us. It is very
much appreciated and valued from which we can all learn. God Bless. :)
Wow I love you so much ❤️ if I ever get a chance to meet you I would be so blessed 😭 your testimony resonates so closely with mine and your words are always so encouraging to me - you really let me know that I’m not alone in this world and I appreciate you so much for finding the strength to talk about these things ... because people need to hear it
Thank you for sharing. It's wonderful to hear how the Lord is moving in your life. God bless you
I so can relate to this. Had this experience recently and it is truly the worst. I thank God for His amazing love and patience with us. It truly breaks the heart especially knowing His love. Its empty this life without Him, once you know what it's like having Him. The good thing that comes out of it is that we learn and grow and it is a process as Paul wrote. We just have to keep our eyes and hearts on Jesus no matter what and rely solely as we started, innHis grace in hope of maturing in perfection til His coming as promised in the world. God's love truly is inspirational and I am thankful that He is working in you sis. Keep your head up, abide in Jesus and may God bless and keep you in Jesus name! Thank you for such a genuine testimony..... All my love! Glory to God!!
Your spirit and heart are both so beautiful and so pure and genuine, He sees your heart. He knows that you are genuine ❤️ Your guilt and remorse are evidence you’re still walking with Him! A truly calloused backslidden person cannot feel or hear His voice at all, their conscience is seared.
In my experience I’ve found that it is never Him Who walks away from us, but we walk away from Him. He never lets go or stops pursuing 💓 nothing can separate us from the love of God! Better than we deserve, but it’s because of what He did..we can never earn or try to work for His salvation or grace or anything like that..it’s already been done, we just have to rest in it! Rest in Him
Bless you lady, your story really touched my heart. And your love makes me want to know Him and love Him more. Your heart for Him is beautiful
Hey we all sometimes, unfortunately, do things like that or make mistakes... thank you Lord for Jesus and for His an ending love for us... Yay Gog... tks for sharing
greetings from South Africa
You are shining... I mean you are looking different & glowing.. wow
Your absolutely beautiful! I wish I could pull off my hair being this short. I came across your testimony & I just want to say thank you for sharing! You have the holy spirit speaking through you. It shows all over you! Child of God. Jesus is wonderful! God bles you and your family 😇
I absolutely loved hearing this, and also really needed to hear this! I need to keep close to the Lord and stop as you said forgetting him 🥰♥️ thank you so much!! I also really loved how you mentioned how when we backslide and come back to the Lord it projects us further in our walk with him.. made me think of a sling shot as silly as that sounds, we pull back but as soon as you let it all go and give it to Christ we SLING forward in our walk 🥰🥰🥰🥰 God Bless YOU ♥️🥰
"It's not about me, it's about Jesus" really love this.❤️
This was encouraging, thank you. It is amazing how we all need reminding that God is number one. It is so easy to get caught up in worldly desires and ambition, but actually nothing will ever fulfil like God does.
I also was backsliding about a week ago..also dont feel worthy and ashamed! Praying for the holy spirit to return and continue to guide me...lesson learned indeed! Thank you for this video.. i surely needed it RIGHT NOW. With love God Bless you!
I just love you sister. I say that in the full sincerity of the Holy Spirit. You express everthing I feel in my heart. Everytime you speak I feel the Holy Spirit all around you. Oh the power of our Father and friend. Thank you for making me cry : ) All glory to God.
You’re beautiful. Very humbled
Such a tough testimony to share. Thank you. A testament to the fact that Satan is always on our heels trying to break us down and lead us back to the darkness.
Thank you for sharing. I draw strength from your stories. Also, great taste in music. I hear Josh Garrels in the background. :)
I have a similar story. I rejoicing that you are now back on the right side, which is only in Jesus Christ. His grace a mercy is sufficient for thee. Love you be encouraged
It's hard to escape the dark... especially in these last days
Beautiful testimony. God is great.
I enjoy listening to you talking🤷🏼♂️💗
Your videos are very encouraging keep the fire going! My sister has a similar story!
The more you mature in your walk with the Lord, the more you will recognize when the enemy tries to get in, but our nature is to be stubborn and in rebellion and even the most seasoned Christians will backslide at times. That was beautifully shared...thank you!
God richly bless and keep you as you walk this beautiful and challenging path. The challenge being to stay trusting, obedient and repentantly bringing my shortfalls to God as I/we mess up - even when I/we know better. Thank you for your honesty. It was most encouraging to me. I fully understand the points you made about ‘hiding’ as it were from God when I’ve taken a wrong move/turn, given in to the desires of the flesh that create that ‘feeling’ of apartness/bit by bit separation. Not feeling that you can or have the right to approach or talk to Him when one has sinned. It’s so important to remember to go Him anyway- staying away makes matters worse. It’s not to take advantage of God’s infinite grace(though that’s exactly how I feel) but to receive correction to move forward. When I’m fed up with myself/walk, in that I want to do and be ‘better’ and I feel so unworthy (which we are) I remember Christ died for a wretch like me and while I have breathe in my body, I will continue to strive to walk uprightly and please Him, simply because I love Him so much , He’s so good to me and I’m overwhelmed by His great love, mercy, peace, joy and protection His plan of salvation extends to me and all.
