    Abstinence builds discipline. When you're disciplined and able to kill your flesh, in Jesus Name, temptation is easier to resist....at least for me.

I don't care how fine he is, I don't care what he has, I don't care what his position is, what his status is I don't care about any of that stuff. Because I'm so disconnected from the things of this world 🌍 none of that moves me. If the Holy Spirit 🌬️ says move, and if he says ah, ah, ah that aint it, I move quickly!

    This women’s experience is similar to mine. The abuse makes it easier to abstain because I want to experience that wholeness and take back the choice of giving myself to a man. I now see that there is nothing wrong in quickly moving on when I see red flags and not just jump into any relationship just because I am getting older without children. I have chosen to wait and set the right foundation for my children.

    Maaaan I needed this refresher! I just had my 4 year abstinence anniversary. Almost didn’t make it! I started this journey in 2012 and was abstinent for 4 years before succumbing to my flesh! Thank God for keeping me. I pray i will be abstinent until marriage this time. I can say my mistake was lack of boundaries and casually dating men i knew weren’t on the same page as me spiritually as far as our beliefs. I can also attest to her comment about sex keeping us from our purpose. God told me to go back to school during that time, but those relationships distracted me from doing so. Here i am again on my purpose pursuit. This time i am asking God to keep me as I completely unable to keep myself pure.

    It is so ironic this episode came down my timeline and I woke up today feeling that need to stop all the soul ties, stop abusing my womb for selfish desires, and to abstain from sex until marriage. I lost a boyfriend behind this decision, but it just means he wasn’t for me. This conversation gave me so much confirmation ❤️. I did something similar to the ceremony Lestine mentioned last Sunday. It was a spirit naming ceremony, but healing your womb and self love was a main focus. I feel truly transformed and ready for the journey ahead.

I have not touched, kissed, or entertained a man in 9 whole years! I know it's truly by God's grace that I've been able to go this long!

    This episode was powerful! Lestine preached some real truths! We need more kingdom men and yes those soul ties are real. Her calling and anointing is powerful. I’m definitely a new fan. I’m planning to participate in the global purity ceremony, although I’ve already been on my own journey of abstinence. Thanks for this powerful episode. I’m looking forward to more content that challenges our need to change so we can live a more purposeful life.

    PHENOMENAL Episode! This was easily my favorite episode because the subject matter has been very personal to me. Let's face it, you must be soldout to trusting the plan God has for your life to confidently stand before friends, associates, the world and the one you truly love and confuse that 'you're not having sex until marriage.' Get ready for the rumors and whispers from others mocking your character. Anyway! Thank you for covering this subject with such transparency. I was blessed with the opportunity to teach abstinence education for 15yrs., and it was the best job I ever had. Or should I say, it was the most fulfilling job because I felt like I was accomplishing something that would be life changing for others. Social media & society today publishes the message of sex in such a way that people buy into the hype and don't realize they have a choice to wait and say no! Lastly, I agree 1,000% that sex before marriage only serves as a destination as you wait for God's best. Without question sex was created for us to enjoy, but only in the proper season of life (marriage). Thinking you're responsible enough to handle sex outside of marriage, creates a false narrative that we understand how sex works better than the designer, which is God. Keep up the good work & both of you stay true to your convictions.

      I totally agree! Being able to stand ten toes down in the midst of your loved ones, friends, and others and being an advocate for abstinence is hard to do because of some many social norms (sometimes even amongst church people unfortunately). It's refreshing to see men like you putting the good word out there. Keep up the great work!

      @Ray I've been a laughing stock when I tell people my now fiance and I are abstinence until marriage. I made a vow to God 6yrs ago and I've been going strong. It's been great for the both of us to find each other in other ways outside of sex. May God continue to give you the grace to preach the gospel of abstinence

      @@luvfilmsmaking, thank you and I applaud you and your fiance for staying committed to God's desire and to one another. As you elegantly indicated, waiting allows both of you to be creative in other ways, while getting to know one another better. It will be worth the wait when the marriage day finally arrives. It's not easy for anyone to say no to sex. But, choosing to remain abstinent until marriage means, "Living Life Above The Rest!"😎👍🏾

    I just started my journey of purity last Sunday. This has been in my mind for years and finally I've taken a step to do it.
    I'm grateful that God reassured me that in this journey I'm not going to be alone but he'll be with me each step of the way.
    I don't know what my future holds but I know his grace is sufficient and that he's not a man that he can lie, what's in my heart right now is purely from him.
    My reason for abstaining is that I fell in to thirst traps because I seeked validation from a man and I saw myself falling into depression because I saw my family and friends getting married and having kids and that has been a goal for me. So this decision is for my healing to fall in love me and Jesus, the only way he shows it to me.
