As a junior in high school, this really encourages me and allows me to see that I'm on the right path as the Lord has been guiding me to do so. He's preparing me for the future at this young age. Praise the Lord!
Jeremiah 29:11 (Bible) 11 For I know the plans I have for you,” declares the Lord, “plans to prosper you and not to harm you, plans to give you hope and a future.
If you suffer from Lust, marriage is not the solution. Sin is only overcome through Christ in us, and not by a wife or anything other in life. If you want to have a Christ centered and blessed relationship with the partner god has chosen for you, you should wait with marriage until Jesus freed you of masturbating etc. Like any other sin, Lust will always try to reenter your Life after overcoming it, but then you already got the strength through Christ to overcome temptation. Temptation will always come, but you should already know how to control yourself and not give into temptation before marriage. If you enter marriage struggling with Lust, it will have very serious consequences in your relationship.
Or like in my marriage example and to refer to the proverbs verse, my wife is a blessing from God coming from a porn addict. She has helped me break my addiction. She was willing to become my accountability partner because she personally understood what i was going through. She showed her grace through God's example of being patient with me and staying with me through the battle to unbreak the chain of porn. I couldn't get through it by myself. I needed her and more importantly I needed God's holy spirit to flow through her to help her help me through the lust addiction. So yes a solid woman of God is important to fix the lust addiction 🙌 through Jesus Christ and God's blessings of a wife who will fight with you through ANYTHING. That's a true woman of God for a man.
The first minute really hit me.. I've had so much free time in my life and would fill it up with things that aren't pleasing to God (pornography, gambling etc.) I just recently lost my very good mining job, lost my rental (because I can't afford my rent payments) which lead me to moving to an entirely different city for family support. I'm currently sleeping on an air mattress in my moms Livingroom - I'm a 31 year old male. Since moving to this new city, I felt called by the lord and immediately joined a church. I was connected and started serving right away, filling up all this free time by attending young adult groups and mens groups during the week because I literally have nothing but free time in my life. I'd be lying if I didn't say that this is the most happiness, freedom and spiritual clarity that I've felt in my entire life. I've been free from Pornography, alcohol and gambling for a month now. I just wanted to share as an encouragement to any of my brothers and sisters who are or have been going through season after season of difficulty, addiction or uncertainty.
@@israelgarbutt1939 Just prayed for you brother, in Jesus' name and by the power of the Holy Spirit! - that the hunger for the things of this world would be completely replaced with an intense hunger for God and God alone. Truly, it is only when you eat the Bread of Life and drink the Living Water that you become satisfied. Stay convicted but throw off your guilt and shame. Remember that this isn't outside of God's realm of repair - redemption is kinda His thing 🔥
I’m a young adult lady here and honestly I was able to pick some things up from this. Thank you so much, Alex. I would love to hear Lokelani’s perspective for discipline as a woman. I’m really seeking that perspective and help from Jesus.
I was so excited to buy a home... but when I bought it I became ALONE. Once I was alone... it's very hard to stay on track.. because I could do whatever I wanted... it's been like this for 3 years now.. but with God's help it is changing now. Thank you for the video.
Hebrews 12:11 (Bible) 11 No discipline seems pleasant at the time, but painful. Later on, however, it produces a harvest of righteousness and peace for those who have been trained by it.
I GOT OFF WORK AND WATCHED THIS VIDEO AANNNNDDDD BROUGHT MY BIBLE OUT TO READ ALONG!!! I CANT TELL YOU HOW MANY TIMES I GOT HOME AND SAT ON THE COUCH WITHOUT TAKING MY WORK CLOTHES OFF, EATING OR NOTHING, AND JUST SCROLL ON MY PHONE FOR... honestly minimum of like... 3 or 4 hours? ... Anyway, just thank you.
🥺I listened between a double shift ☺️while resting and my Bible was near me and I've been Bible reading more too. This is better than scrolling on my phone ... Listening to God speak thru people 🥹🥹its better it's improving ! ☺️Very happy for both of us !
He’s right about serving others Jesus was that prime example I laid down my free time to serve my men’s group and only need Gods approval and live in his glory and serve others As I serve him
I was really beating myself up over the first three points of discipline you made until you hit the “exercise” I’ve been trying my best lately at exercising and this video really encouraged me to see myself as a disciplined person. I’d do my best to work and serve, God bless you❤
What you said in the beginning really stuck to me, I noticed myself being lazy until I started being busy and having no time left. At first I thought that I wanted as much time as I want but you made me realize I need to be grateful I’m so busy because that mean I’m finally doing something. God bless and thank you🙏🏽
The thing that stuck out to me most when you said discipline hurts but you know that you’re growing when something is hard or hurts and eventually you will get used to it and start to love it.
To all of the young people who are concerned about his statement about marriage, let me help you out.... essentially he is saying keep your mind focused on the end goal of getting married while pursuing Holiness and being disciplined with body. Remember you have the power to control what you do❤ love your content brother Alex
As a stay at home mom and wife…. My job is reading my Bible, my husband, my kids and my home. That’s my job. Your video of dying to yourself really helped me and encouraged me. Thank you.
Thank you, I knew I was doing the wrong thing by doing less. If I can manage, I can do all things through Christ. I feel like I’m reeducating myself. A lot of these things I do but was strayed away. I hope I’m doing it right. We shall see. I’m working on it’s
The Lord provides! Right before this I deleted a time wasting app on my phone so that God could have me spend my time more wisely, and this came along only hours later. Praise the Lord!!!
Ok I for real just got goose bumps at this exact time too! Wow haha I felt like he was speaking to my soul. I was like “yes sir” covered in goose bumps
I hate about every last one of your messages. They talk straight to me through all the circumstances and cut through all the unlimited doubts. Thank you
Wow, thank you for allowing the Lord to speak this word through you, I love how you emphasize marriage in majority of your messages, I feel like I don’t hear about it enough and how it truly is something special God wanted to gift us so that we could lift one another up, and praise him through community, instead of just being righteous on our own, looking forward to keep on listening!
Thanks I needed this cause I was in that space of having too much time on my hands and not filling my time with Godly work and pursuits. And this is a wake up call to me to pursue those things, so I pray God helps me to do that and you guys aswell. Nuff love❤
alex i struggle with video games i have too much time on my hands also that is what i do and i like how you said if you fondle your controller you're going to fondle yourself. thanks for putting great content out. marriage is what i am pursuing now with my girlfriend of three years. im working and not serving enough. i have decent discipline i go to the gym moderately and need to read my bible more. God has been knocking at my door lately. i pray that i stay on the narrow path that leads to life and not go astray during this season
Thank you, Alex, for this video. When i was a teenager, i used to attend church services and camps and did a lot of things that set me apart from my friends. In high school, most of my friends were into Alcohol, drugs, and clubbing, i did things that were different. A lot of students admired me, and the school nominated me to be the school in which i was successfully elected. In the year 2020,while i was the school captain, something in school went out of control, and i was removed from being the school captain. After High school, i got selected into a College and that was where i had so much time which made me to get into drugs and alcohol and i from that year till last year 2024, i felt so lost. I am happy that i watched this video because i know that the Lord has something in store for me for this year. Greetings from Papua New Guinea 🇵🇬
As a freshman in highschool, i can say dat everything that he stated in this video resonates with me. I feel like a lot of people my age get too comfortable with having what they so call “fun”. I hear a lot of teenagers around my age saying that they want this they want that, but when it comes to them actually putting time and effort, they are not up for it at all😂. I’ve recently cut off tiktok and Instagram because I realized that it was taking up most of my time throughout my day and was keeping me from fulfilling the plans that god had for me. Now i can say ever since i have done dat, my relationship with god was been the strongest its ever been. People really need to get out they comfort zone and start developing discipline
Marriage is good! No doubt…I’m not to sure about marriage being the answer to lust. If lust isn’t targeted through prayer and repentance and you jump into marriage your lust will not cease to exist in your marriage.
yep. I had the same thought. Paul didnt say get married if you are struggling with lust aka adultery of the heart. He said if you burn with passion, then get married. these things are very different. Nearly every porn addiction testimony of married christian men will testify thatt they mad ethe mistake of thinking that getting married would be the solution to their lust problem.
Personally, I was battling lust addiction for many years. I was not struggling as much, but still struggling. Since being with my girlfriend now wife, I haven’t watched it. It’s been over 2 years. Lust isn’t really an issue for me anymore. My bigger struggle is weed addiction. Still clean from it for 2 years, but I still crave it and struggle with temptation.
Yes brother getting married is a holy and good thing. But let's take into account the weak men who are so desperate for a woman that will choose anyone. We have to let them know that God will provide and that we can't choose some random woman ❤
I think also too, us men have to be ready to marry when we begin dating. We shouldn’t jump into something we’re not ready for just for the sake of satisfying internal desires
Thank you for this Alex. As a high school student, I find myself feeling my time with meaningless things as an effort to just seek rest, but through work, serving and exercise God will give me rest. I am so moved and seek to share this message to other young people, in order to prepare us for our futures, seeking God as our firm foundation.
This will be my second time watching this video, I’ve fallen I’ve sinned and my biggest sin I have is lust, corn, s*x addiction. it’s tearing me apart and it has since I was a kid. When I listen to this it hurts deeply because I know what I ought to do. But I feel my mind and body arguing otherwise. I feel so weak. I feel so tempted by the littlest things and I give in so quick, I feel disgusted with myself. This is a real wake up call. please keep me in your prayers. Thank you.
Yep, having too much time in our hands can be definitely dangerous...especially if you're feeling lost about what to do. Thanks for the tips, it definitely will help! God bless you!
1 Timothy 4:8 Is something I have seen myself grow to enjoy. Physical exersise has helped me grow closer to God. When your body is exosted and your taking time to recoperate that has been the time when I have seen the Love of Jesus more clearly. Thanks Alex!
Colossians 3:23-24 hit me deep. Where I work I love what I do, just not where I do it. I have refrained myself from going above and beyond just because my manager and coworker are terrible at being productive and organized. But this verse put it into different perspective. I Will do it for the Lord and I know he will make it right and bless me for it.
God bless you all. Every Christian who has stuck to the Word and to preaching it, Thank you so much man. You genuinely restore me with hope and help me. Thank you.
I can't measure up how i needed to hear this right now. Do not stop making this videos, keep letting God speak through your life. You are a blessing from Jesus to us. Thanks 🙏
Yo this vid helped a lot. 2025 right around the curb, and I'm a sophomore in HS rn and I really have wanted change in my life. Time to deepen my relationship with God!!!
I really need this video. I serve through content on the internet, and wow, I'm studying this and this video gave me a lot of clarity, Thank God. God bless you!
Iam from south of india , this video was the first of Alex which I came by and I feel blessed and started to note down the verses as he goes by and Alex may you be blessed abundantly in God’s grace and keep professing the word of God
I love this episode. The scripture is so so important. God bless your family! I’m preparing for the military and doing lots of exercise and MAN discipline is hard. But you get stronger. Back against a wall is really how it is. Throughout high school and as a child I rebelled. Now I’m learning patience and strength from the LORD! Amen.
Hello friend. I'm from Buffalo, NY. I'm struggling right now in staying focused. You video in its entirety actually gave an idea for me to lay out a daily routine that I can incorporate in my daily activities. Redirecting to Jesus instead of my problems! Thank you. Amen 🙌🏽🙌🏽💐🫶🏽🫶🏽❣️
This is real entertainment, to spend time on TH-cam, but that time is being used for good. I've noticed that I've been undisciplined because I have time for it. Thank you for this valuable content, brother. God bless you
9:10 glory be to God. I'm so glad for you Alex and other Chritian mentors and pastors, I thank God for your lives because the wisdom you give that the Lord instils in me is awesome.
Reframing that the children you have belong to God so don’t worry how you will feed them and shelter them if you not in the ideal situation you think you should be in is reassuring 🙏🏾
I've struggled with addiction to nicotine for so long I started to give up on myself. But within the last month or so I know that the Lord has taken the burden off of my shoulders. There's no other way to explain how I am able to resist right now. When it was left to me I gave in almost every opportunity I was given. And, this is how I know it's Jesus and not me, even now I desire so badly to give in to temptation, to consume something with nicotine in it. But through the strength of the Lord I am able to resist.
Alex I’m thankful the Lord has truly used you bro it’s amazing. I came across your channel like a month or two ago and completely amazed how God has poured into your life and your family. I’m 20 and married and your videos, podcasts are great. I love that you show your Vulnerability about the struggles you have and that we all have helps a lot. Truly inspiring and just wanna encourage others that God is with us always and forever and yea it’s hard at times but always look to Jesus he has a plan for your life.
I’ve been finding myself with a lot more free time recently so this video was perfect. The part that stuck out to me was the beginning about why we become undisciplined and what true freedom is and isn’t. I beleive I’m a very disciplined individual as a collegiate athlete but I still find myself using dating apps or watching movies, instead of reading my Bible.
this video caught me just at the right time. I’ve been having troubles finding the “right path” through life. I’m 23, getting married next week so this offered some great insights and peace. marriage, work, excercise. GOT IT. THANK YOU.
This is really good, literally word oriented. Freedom, rest you know the fear of the lord… I mean the word of God is lamp and light to our feet and path. Wisdom is profitable to direct. Thank you sir. May your light shine brighter and brighter, may God increase you and may his glory be seen through you even more. Hey, the simplicity! As you grow may you never loose this simplicity this is the gospel.
As a junior in high school, this really encourages me and allows me to see that I'm on the right path as the Lord has been guiding me to do so. He's preparing me for the future at this young age. Praise the Lord!
That’s amazing bro !
Your a massive encouragement thank you for sharing this. Keep it up God bless ❤️
Same bro he put these desires into me to have kids and have a wife and get prepared so I’m getting ready 🙏🏽✝️
Amen✝️🕊️

discipline is something that hurts, but it’s something that you can gain to love. It’s so beautiful.

Anyway, just thank you.
🥺I listened between a double shift ☺️while resting and my Bible was near me and I've been Bible reading more too. This is better than scrolling on my phone ... Listening to God speak thru people 🥹🥹its better it's improving ! ☺️Very happy for both of us !
Literally me right now, God help the both of us and our discipline
He’s right about serving others
Jesus was that prime example
I laid down my free time to serve my men’s group and only need Gods approval and live in his glory and serve others
As I serve him
Having more free time on our hands can hurt us more than what we realize if we're not disciplined, everything in the video spoke to me directly
Praying for everyone that watched this video to find discipline through the Lord. May we become people of value that spread God’s love.
Thank you for this teaching, brother in Christ !
I was really beating myself up over the first three points of discipline you made until you hit the “exercise” I’ve been trying my best lately at exercising and this video really encouraged me to see myself as a disciplined person. I’d do my best to work and serve, God bless you❤

God bless you all. Every Christian who has stuck to the Word and to preaching it, Thank you so much man. You genuinely restore me with hope and help me. Thank you.
Bless God and Bless this ministry. I receive this correction in Jesus' name
This is spiritual food thank you so much❤
You speaking the truth brother! Thanks for this! God bless!
This was very much needed for us young men. Thank you Alex, may God bless you abundantly.
I can't measure up how i needed to hear this right now. Do not stop making this videos, keep letting God speak through your life. You are a blessing from Jesus to us. Thanks 🙏
Yo this vid helped a lot. 2025 right around the curb, and I'm a sophomore in HS rn and I really have wanted change in my life. Time to deepen my relationship with God!!!
Thank you for this video. Also thank you for keeping a calm and persuasive tone. God bless you and your family
I really need this video. I serve through content on the internet, and wow, I'm studying this and this video gave me a lot of clarity, Thank God. God bless you!
Iam from south of india , this video was the first of Alex which I came by and I feel blessed and started to note down the verses as he goes by and Alex may you be blessed abundantly in God’s grace and keep professing the word of God
I love this episode. The scripture is so so important. God bless your family! I’m preparing for the military and doing lots of exercise and MAN discipline is hard. But you get stronger. Back against a wall is really how it is. Throughout high school and as a child I rebelled. Now I’m learning patience and strength from the LORD! Amen.
Hello friend. I'm from Buffalo, NY. I'm struggling right now in staying focused. You video in its entirety actually gave an idea for me to lay out a daily routine that I can incorporate in my daily activities. Redirecting to Jesus instead of my problems! Thank you. Amen 🙌🏽🙌🏽💐🫶🏽🫶🏽❣️
You got this!
This hit me hard. I struggle with this so much.
This is real entertainment, to spend time on TH-cam, but that time is being used for good.
I've noticed that I've been undisciplined because I have time for it.
Thank you for this valuable content, brother. God bless you
9:10 glory be to God. I'm so glad for you Alex and other Chritian mentors and pastors, I thank God for your lives because the wisdom you give that the Lord instils in me is awesome.
Reframing that the children you have belong to God so don’t worry how you will feed them and shelter them if you not in the ideal situation you think you should be in is reassuring 🙏🏾
I've struggled with addiction to nicotine for so long I started to give up on myself. But within the last month or so I know that the Lord has taken the burden off of my shoulders. There's no other way to explain how I am able to resist right now. When it was left to me I gave in almost every opportunity I was given. And, this is how I know it's Jesus and not me, even now I desire so badly to give in to temptation, to consume something with nicotine in it. But through the strength of the Lord I am able to resist.
Alex I’m thankful the Lord has truly used you bro it’s amazing. I came across your channel like a month or two ago and completely amazed how God has poured into your life and your family. I’m 20 and married and your videos, podcasts are great. I love that you show your Vulnerability about the struggles you have and that we all have helps a lot. Truly inspiring and just wanna encourage others that God is with us always and forever and yea it’s hard at times but always look to Jesus he has a plan for your life.
Wow, as I listen to your message I see Jesus in you. God bless you❤❤❤
I needed this video 💯
Alex God Bless You ... 😊🙏
I’ve been finding myself with a lot more free time recently so this video was perfect. The part that stuck out to me was the beginning about why we become undisciplined and what true freedom is and isn’t. I beleive I’m a very disciplined individual as a collegiate athlete but I still find myself using dating apps or watching movies, instead of reading my Bible.
this video caught me just at the right time. I’ve been having troubles finding the “right path” through life. I’m 23, getting married next week so this offered some great insights and peace. marriage, work, excercise. GOT IT. THANK YOU.
Fantastic perspective, thank you for creating and sharing 🙏
Glory be to God for this message. Fulfilling and so clear. God definitely has great intentions for our life.
Amen.
I really need to hear this. Its my turn to lock in and get things ✔️
Amen brother! I really appreciate your channel and messages. God bless you

This is really good, literally word oriented. Freedom, rest you know the fear of the lord… I mean the word of God is lamp and light to our feet and path. Wisdom is profitable to direct. Thank you sir. May your light shine brighter and brighter, may God increase you and may his glory be seen through you even more. Hey, the simplicity! As you grow may you never loose this simplicity this is the gospel.
