I foolishly got rid of my Bible. I fell from the church. I convinced myself that I never knew god and never believed in who he was. I’ve been begging god for months to reveal himself to me. I’ve been crying asking him why he’s forgotten me. Why he doesn’t answer me. I opened the Bible app on my phone and Psalm 13 was sitting in front of me. Sitting in front of me was the prayer I had been praying. Sitting in front of me was the desperation I had been feeling. I knew in that moment I needed to do something. I needed to change. I needed to shift my focus. I just had a baby and he deserves to know who God is. He deserves to know the love of Jesus.
Praying so deeply for you! He is so merciful, graceful, and His love for you remains through all of our human emotions 🫶🏼 Keep seeking Him and if you need a bible, I give them out for free! I won’t be able to restock until possibly next month, but keep going on the app too 🙌🏼 God bless you ❤️
Praying for you 🙏🏼 Don’t beat yourself up because it is TOUGH! Just remember, keep going to Him with everything EVERYDAY! Everyday won’t be perfect, but if He’s apart of your everyday, that will be more than enough!
crazy how i'm seeing this video after years of constantly turning to social media; whether it was through producing content or consuming content. finally for the first time in so long i've learned to put my phone down and spend that time with God instead. truly does make a difference
French viewer here 👋🏽 I was about to watch a TH-cam video instead of praying but I felt like the Lord wasn't against it. So I laid in bed and saw the title of your video on my recommendation and I was like "Okay Lord, I got the message" 😂😂😭 God sometimes speaks in a very funny In short, thank you for your message, thank you for your work and your collaboration with the Spirit and mostly thank you Lord for speaking through your children. God bless y'all 🙏🏽🤍
WOW!!! i love the Lord! i could go on and on about how He really does have a sense of humor 😂 i have been completely BLESSED by your comment! God sees all that it took to even get here and create this video… just so He can speak to you! He is so intricate, specific, and SUCH timely God 🥹❤️ God bless you!
I try not to classify myself as someone who’s addicted to social media, but as an artist who wants to go viral with their art, I find myself scrolling a lot through many artists’ posts and even envying them in my heart even though it is the Lord’s commandment to not do so. Anyway, I hope I can abstain from social media and that the strength of Jesus will be given to me through His Holy Spirit so that I can have more faith as well as live a more productive and holy life. ❤
I feel you. I'm a writer and I'd submitted my manuscript to this book publishing company and they agreed to publish my book, though they didn't reveal the date. It's so difficult for me to watch other writers have their books hyped up and celebrate these milestones while I'm still waiting for mine 😢 May the Lord show us both that our values are not in the eyes of humans but in the Lord's only and that is sufficient for us.
I spent a whole lot of time last year trying to get my account to "take off" without having to leave what's important behind. Thankfully it didn't work lol. Social media is not as grand as it looks when you take a step back. Same with anything, if you stop hyperfixating and just take a step back, you'll see how small it really is. Yet the grandeur of God never shrinks no matter where you are, if anything you'll see the depth of His being the less preoccupied you are
@xonanimations8075 Amen. Thank you for this. I often struggle with hyperfixation and often need to be reminded to step back and realised that God is bigger than anything in this world
@@xonanimations8075 Thank you for putting things into perspective. I’m trying to do a social media fast so that I may be removed from worldly desires which can be boringly repetitive to me and numbing even.
@@annaviedoux9028 Aww, I will do my best to pray for you who wants to be blessed with utmost creativity with which God created the world. But yeah I also pray that God will help us be patient in blessing, and help us to worship Him for all His mercy and qualities that He possesses in creating and saving us.
hey, i just wanna say thank you so much for this message !! I've been addicted to my phone lately, even scrolling through yt short for hours had made me distant myself from the Lord. I couldn't feel the fire to pray or read the Bible. I thought I fail in the eyes of God. But through this video, i realised that God is still faithful and loving to me. Thank you Lord, for Your unconditional love !!
Felt shiver all over my body and felt strongly convicted. I really struggle with indulging myself in social media, just mindlessly scrolling and wanted to be updated with what's out there. This message is really a reminder. Thank you. Praise God🙏
This is wildly timely for me. I have felt such a pull to get off social media. I recently deleted my personal Instagram and am ridding of my business Instagram account. I’m a Christian life coach trying to get the word out about my services so I can help people and support my family. But the Lord said that I don’t need to do all the posting I’ve been doing to have consistent clients, He said He’d look after it. So, I’m trusting God and leaving social media behind. Now I am working on not scrolling and filling my day with being in the secret place and doing things that need to get done. Thank you for sharing this and being led by the Spirit.
Such a timely message. It’s sometimes difficult to navigate, finding a “spot” on social media as a Christian, like sometimes we’re like “how can we make our daily lives work for social media, reels Tik Tok”. But Then you realise God had it all figured out, he will make “social media work for you”, he will pour into you His word for His people into us , he will cause our gifts to shine, and find ways for social media to benefit us without us having to sacrifice our relationship with him. Social media is so draining and empty when it’s not done Gods way P.s. I love when you’re back at the restaurant. I guess it’s comforting to see now because your first video was like this. And shows so much growth
THIS IS SO GOOD!!! 🙌🏼 thank you 🥹 it’s been a struggle going back there bc it gets so busy and I realized they don’t make the best food besides one thing... 😅 searching for a new restaurant, but will re-visit anyway!
I love how God uses people to speak to you because I was definitely been struggling with this and my spirit has been convicted God has been sending me videos that are all the same towards social media today so ik it’s him talking to me and imma stay obedient.
Woah ok Lord I see you. I’ve been going through dark mental health struggles and it’s come to a point where I don’t leave my house. The only time I feel peace is if i distract myself on my phone. I realized I have truly become dependent, addicted to it. I do pray and read the Bible and spend a lot of time in worship but it’s like I am unable to just sit still and be with my thoughts. It’s a way to distract myself from my reality. And I have had that thought before “What would I do if I didn’t have social media/streaming services etc.” I’ve been trying quit these platforms and realize the time is now. For the fist time EVER I finally deactivated my insta, deleted tiktok and just have YT now. Been going 2 weeks and I don’t think I’ll ever go back. God is my healer, counselor ❤
praise God for revealing things!!! i pray in Jesus name that there be such a refreshing newness to this season of your life, that you can step outside with a new boldness, and that the peace that surpasses all understanding be with you FOREVER! In Jesus’ name Amen! ❤️
Thank you , God really speaks through you.I very much needed this so I appreciate the work you put in to inspire,educate, and comfort God’s children.🙏🏽🙌🏽
I haven’t been on social media for two years now since i reborn again… i only use tiktok tho and youtube. I cut off ig, x, snap, facebook completely… Since then my mind and my heart is just so much better because i get to cut off the bad things like that from my life. And of course God also helped me to do it ❤️❤️ I LOVE YOUR VIDEOS. THANK YOU AND GOD BLESS YOU ALWAYS 🥺🥺🥺💕💕💕🙏🏼🙏🏼
Thanks I found god not to long ago but you saying use a Physical bible gave me a slap in the face I’ve been using the Bible app For the past couple days because I’ve been on my phone a lot so this was a really nice reminder pick up my bible I instantly go to the Bible app because it’s easy and convenient but I do need to read my bible more so thank you very much❤❤❤❤❤❤
This video makes me wish I took time to write down a dream I had not too long ago. My home church was being disrespected by people who didn’t have reverence and respect for God. I was the few who were able to submit to God . Your dream held similarity in the fact that people are removing themselves from His presence and placing other gods before him.
God makes us prosperous He gives us Life Light Love Joy Peace Everything we should obey Him out of love because He Loves us and He always knows and wants what is best for us Joshua 1:7 “Only be strong and very courageous, that you may observe to do according to all the law which Moses My servant commanded you; do not turn from it to the right hand or to the left, that you may prosper wherever you go.” 1 Kings 2:3 “And keep the charge of the Lord your God: to walk in His ways, to keep His statutes, His commandments, His judgments, and His testimonies, as it is written in the Law of Moses, that you may prosper in all that you do and wherever you turn;” I love this Verse 1 John 3:6 “Anyone who continues to live in Him will not sin. But anyone who keeps on sinning does not know Him or understand who He is.”
Hello Cierra, I'm hoping to get the Bible you're giving away. I've been reading God's word on iPad, but I'd to read from a physical Bible. Thank you so much! May God bless you and your family✨
