Hello! I was not addicted to weed, but for what i ve been through it really helped me to do it less often. Instead of every single day, lets say 5 times a week, after a little bit 4 times and so on. When you will get to 1 or 2 times a week you really don t feel like doing that habit anymore and it will be easier to go clean and quit once and for all. Also, it really helps if you get yourself busy with work, school, gym, go for a walk or run, cook whatever. Hope things are getting better brother
To all of you who are struggling with this addiction, i have too had the same addiction and it was bad, but when I fully gave myself to Jesus, man it changed. The Bible teaches to meditate on the Lord daily, all throughout the day. Wether it be sermons, reading your Bible, worship music, just thinking about Jesus, do something to just constantly have your mind on the Lord and it starts to become a habit, your desires begin to change. Im praying for all of you who are going through this❤️ Just follow God and He will give you new life
Keep on going man im 23 and I quit 7months ago if you quit now and improve yourself you’ll set yourself up for a very successful fulfilling life change your friend groups get involved with new activities and focus don’t feel bad about changing your lifestyle !!!
A lot of your friends are gonna still do it, and thats okay you are not them. I dont talk to 90% of the people I used to hangout with in high school. All those bad decisions over time made it harder for me to personally clean up my life. So keep that in mind and know who YOU are, not who THEY want you to be!
As someone who’s been in the church and saved at 6 and reggae my life to Christ again @16 . I’ve been constantly falling into the porn addiction. Even @21 rn it’s a chain that was broken that I keep trying to put back on my wrists . But I’m always reminded of how the flesh is waging war with the spirit . The more you feed your spirit, the less control / power your flesh has . So when in a situation where you’re tempted by lust , drugs , lying , making any kind of bad decision that you’d sacrifice for short term pleasure outside of the order God had for it . The easier it is for you to call upon God to be your strength. And even in the process of sin if you’re born again he still gives you a way out of it . But it’s usually a conviction / voice saying Donny don’t do this you know better . Vs allowing your flesh to win battle after battle making your spirit weaker than you flesh . Making it harder ti overcome sin because your flesh has more strength to chase after the short term desire . So the more you read the word , waking up each day giving God that first slice of cake/ your day . The more you’ll crave more time with God this in return will bless you but set you up to over come any addiction / sin . You can’t over come any sin by debating in your mind . Instead Call upon God find accountability & step away from the phone , the person , the drugs . Removing yourself no matter what it is will help you not fall into sin . But take it day by day and don’t expect to get it down first day . Instead build up the control to get yourself out your phone down when that girl texts , your plug hits your phone , your friend texts “ yo there’s free alcoholic bevy’s “ . While being like God I need you to take the place of that distraction, that text , that one night stand , that conversation where ik I’ll say something I’ll regret. Jesus lived the same life we do , he went through the same temptations and set an example of perfection to die for our sin because we are imperfect. He wants us to go to him when we have an anxiety attack , depression, sadness, anger , joy , lust etc. because he’s our creator and he knows how to fix things we think the worlds materialistic and temporary solutions can fix . Hopefully someone sees this and gains something from this long paragraph. God bless 6/4/23 .
I’m 21 also struggling with a Lust addiction and I am married as well go to church too. listening to this podcast was a real eye opener to me and it actually made me cry. Breaking these addictions is very hard and I struggle to relieve them every day and when you mentioned knowing that god calls you friend even though you sinned hit different that it made me cry. Thank you I really needed to hear this. Please post more on Sunday’s 🙏
Im 23 and going through it bro. I feel so bad and awful right now and I had a panic attack a couple ago. Still coping with it, it’s wild how these things can happen. Today is the day I commit to the lord
Bro! Your rawness and realness is inspiring. Your heart to see people impacted by the gospel is so evident. Your passion for God is awesome. You are phenomenal bro!!! Jesus has a great servant here!
So much respect for you Alex for talking about this kind of stuff. Really respect you not shying away from your faith. Especially since the world needs God more now than ever
I love this side of Alex man. Seeing an influencer be so vulnerable is moving. Ive been praying for courage to enhance my faith, and Alex inspires me to give that first slice of my day to God. Keep doing what you're doing man, people need to know the truth!!
AMEN, ray comfort, said that a painting has a painter, we need to be created to exist, people speak about the “big bang” yet something had to create the universe, something had to make it all happen!!
This talk reminded me of a JBP quote “if you don’t organize yourself properly you’ll pay for it, and so will the people around you” or Jocko’s classic “discipline equals freedom”
Thanks Alex, you have truly let me embrace my faith in God. I've been away from him for a while but listening to you has helped me get back on God's path
Love the pods Alex, you inspire me sooo much. im going to start tiktok again because of you. Ever since i started watching you helped me grow my relationship with God
Also bro, you touched a little on sanctification. The way my pastor described it is as a Christian, we are sanctified in two ways. 1.) Positional sanctification- our position with the Father in heaven was set when we were saved. That is set in stone. 2. Progressive sanctification- a lifetime journey of conforming more and more into the image of Christ. God saved us, not to use his grace as a cloak for a life of sin, but to shed the shackles of sin and spread his love and righteousness in the world.
Man… I have no words I just want to say thank you for sharing this. I’ve been struggling big time and it’s wild how I’m putting this out here like that but that and lust is a weakness of mine and I pray to Jesus it gets better and that he’s able to provide me with clarity with him 🙏🏽
Honestly, the timing of this Podcast and the topics is crazy for me. I've struggled for a long time with falling into lust and around 3 weeks ago I completely cut it out for multiple reasons one being pursuing a closer relationship with God but it also just feels amazing to not be a prisoner to lust and being able to walk around confidently and treat Women normally and not feel awkward. With full transparency there are definitely times where I've looked at a girl in the Gym in a lustful way but over the past 3 weeks I've made it my main goal to just have respectful eyes and if it happens on accident I just ask God for forgiveness and don't have to feel horrible about it. Thank you as always for being transparent with all of us Alex you're a huge inspiration. And yesterday marks 100 pounds down in 8 months for me went from 330-230 appreciate your help with that have a good day bro.🦾
I did an English final for my 102 class and it was about how people were slaves to their own desires in Brave New World and I had such an easy time connecting that to today
I can't explain my love to GOD. The amount of things he has helped me with in life is just wonderful. The best thing that has happened in my life and the best thing that will ever happen that thing. That was GOD. He showed me different ways to see life and he showed me the right path to walk when I had fallen many times.😇 And Alex you are also the best TH-cam inspiration a 15 soon 16 year old can have!
Alex makes everything on christianity make sense im 16 and on my own walk with God and whenever Alex talks about God he just makes me understand everything so much more easily. Thankyou so much Alex and I also love how this will be a Christian podcast and have his own seperate one on the side. I love you Alex may God continue to bring more blessings to your life!
I believe got puts people in positions of power to have his word spread through them. A lot of people look up to you, and now you use your position to spread the word. Thank you for everything you do.
Great podcast - I would love to hear more about transitioning into faith and different relationships people can have with god. It’s all very daunting when you first start out like me.
Followed on the gram for the impressive hypertrophy. Stayed & Subscribed to the TH-cam for the insightful Chirstian insight. Really impressed to see you using your broad reach to spread a positive message unlike many others. "Let your light so shine before men, that they may see your good works, and glorify your Father which is in heaven." Please keep this content coming. - where'd you get the hoodie?
Really love to hear your reading John Bevere, I listened to a sermon he recently did about the book, absolotuely stellar. The Bait of Satan is another unreal read. Thank you for really pursuing your faith, growing and sharing the wisdom your learning, your a great influence for young men.
Thank you, Alex, for another great, inspirational Christian message. I pray that you'll have a blessed Lenten and Easter season. May God bless you, Abby, and your family always. 🧓 I hope your allergies get better soon.
I Love this content Alex you’re touching a lot of young men’s hearts and I encourage you to keep talking about your faith brother !! Amazing talk/podcast my friend ❤️
Alex, I don't think you realize how much your content has gotten me into the gym and into fearing GOD. And overall being a better person. And one more think I love when you and the TrenTwins make videos and one day I hope to be just like you and inspire people 😇😇
Wow I need this Alex now cause I have been so sad lately and unhappy with my life cause I lost a good friend and you talking about the lord is helping me out thank you Alex and keep up with this channel
Alex, I just wanted to say I am a huge fan and you have inspired me to start up my own podcast, im 12 weeks in now. But just how your so open about your faith is what made me want to do it too. We need more christians to stand up for Jesus in this world. Hopefully youll see these because I’m not gonna stop till i meet you or get you on the podcast. I see alot of myself in you and I feel like we could have a great conversation🤙🏼❤️
This is very close to the NF song “Oh LORD” one of the lines goes something like you only look to God when your sick in bed and another line that goes sleeping in the pews and wonder why God is sleeping on you.
Alex I just want to say thank you. You’ve truly helped me find a relationship with god on such a deeper level, I was struggling with my faith and have never truly known what I believed but after listening to this and taking it in and exploring my relationship with god, I’ve truly seen his role In my life and I want you to know that we love these vids and i will continue to watch them all, keep doin what ur doin man love it fr.
Interesting perspective. I know you have mentioned enjoying the book “outwitting the devil” which explicitly states that fear is a control mechanism of the devil. I like your reframing of fear to awe
Alex u are a huge motivation for me honestly Your a more positive and successful person then me and honestly your faith in god motivates me to get to that point with him in my own life These last couple of months have been hard asf for me facing upcoming eviction and health issues but your videos and constant positive outlook on life give me something to hope for I hope to one day have the same level of faith in god as you. Never stop motivating
You don’t have to change before coming to Jesus. Jesus says come to Him as you are and he will change/work in you. Love y’all and these videos are great alex!❤
Isaiah 5 vers 22-24 states "Woe unto them that are mighty to drink wine, and men of strength to mingle strong drink: Isaiah 5:22 KJV Therefore as the fire devoureth the stubble, and the flame consumeth the chaff, so their root shall be as rottenness, and their blossom shall go up as dust: because they have cast away the law of the LORD of hosts, and despised the word of the Holy One of Israel. Isaiah 5:24 KJV The good will be bad and the bad will be good Isaiah 5 vers 20 Woe unto them that call evil good, and good evil; that put darkness for light, and light for darkness; that put bitter for sweet, and sweet for bitter!

“When you fear God, it casts all other fears out.”
That’s it, man. You are doing a fantastic job lifting up Christ with your content. Keep going.
