I counted 8 Steps. 1. Cut back on entertainment... be careful of what's allowed in. 2. Avoid toxic relationships 3. Operate in love. Build up others. 4. Don't focus on problems & feelings. 5. Celebrate our blessings 6. Busyness can hurt spiritual growth. Balance is key. Protect my time with God. 7. Please God, not people. 8. Don't overthink & analyzing details. Simply trust God & follow His leading.
My addiction mostly that I new God wanted me to quit: 1. Pc./ video games. 2. Movies. 3. Stop being a sports fanatic. Only sometimes watch highlights. It was such a pain to quit all this, especially video games. BUT the hardest sins to overcome are the pride, selfishness, envy and other self sins, that I’m still battling.
Thank you for saving my life 🧬 when I was younger falling down the basement stairs, you told me to put out my hand, and I grabbed the banister, it stopped my fall thank you I'm here 76 years old I Love you so much thank you Gid
@@ninahajj4695 It’s dishonest and deceptive and makes people wonder if any of it is even true. It’s not okay to lie and deceive people just because there are good intentions behind it. That’s very manipulative. And in this case, it could just be the creator is using CS’s name to bring attention to the channel, which will bring more money to the channel. So ultimately, they are lying for money. Also, he stated that he doesn’t read fiction anymore. Does this sound like the statement of a man who wrote a ton of fiction? 🤨
AMEN 🙏🙏🙏🙏🙏🙏 PLEASE pray for me as I am currently going through a very complicated divorce process, and I need God's interventions and Provisions ASAP. Bless you all.
I pray for you 🙏 I am too husband had an affair on me 💔 3 years behind my back now he's gone no contact with me and our 5 year old daughter over a month now
@Jennifer-l9n Good evening, it is so unfortunate that marriages (specially Christian marriages) ends like this. Mine didn't involve affairs, but other hurtful factors crept in, Devil knows where to hit. Whereabouts in the world r u ? I am in London U.K. bless you 🙏
I have a problem with this cellphone and TH-cam, except without it I wouldn't be listening to you right now. The solution is time management. Since I was born again I've changed this problem but not enough. Thanks for your message. Amen and thank you.
You should go in for a dopamine detox which means No Fone either 3 day's to start ,no talking to anyone,no physical activities gym etc just be your self have a go it works also be still and you can say ur devotion but no talking to anyone ❤
Amen my brother in Christ and thanks for sharing above all a person emotions,feelings and addiction I need to put in more effort and work on my self with all the Faith and Hope I have on my King JESUS. GOD BLESS ALL THOSE WHO'S LISTENING TO THIS DEVOTION FILLED WITH WISDOM 🙏🏻🙏🏻🙏🏻
Amen! I acknowledge I'm struggling as I work through a gradually debilitating illness that's been reducing my physical abilities more and more since 2002. Combined with many other normal limiters of age, I'm nearly bedridden, struggling with daily pain. Often at levels that normally hospitalize people. This is very encouraging and instructive in ways I needed to hear and remember from younger days when serving and focusing on Jesus through the Holy Spirit were easier without my current complications. I do need to reassess how I deal with my infirmities as regards my walk with the Spirit and so serve, however I still may be capable of doing.
Thank you. I too am older .it is easy to get caught up in health problems and limitations. Old age is challenging. People fall out of our lives for various reasons.we get sad and miss people.Webneed other Christians around us. I hv a book to collect from the library today. I am going to see if I can get a book by CS Lewis.thank u to whoever put this video up.
Thank you for this very encouraging I struggle with alcohol but this is going to make a change for me thank you God bless you an everyone who commented Amen
Thank you God the Father, God the Son & God the Holy Spirit! Everything is possible with God! I know I need to spend more time in prayer, reading the Bible and spending more time meditating on His word! AMEN & AMEN❣️🙌🙏♥️✝️🕊️✨
Today this has been used of God to answer some few questions and wisdom laid on my hand to be better. The LORD our God keep you and shine His countenance of His face upon you sir in Jesus name. I love you for God's glory.
Amen!!! Thank you!!! I need to work on every one of them!!!! This is a good video to watch when you’re getting ready to go to work, boost you up. Remind you why your here!!!!
@lrazzo05 And if all you or I watch is Godly and Biblical content try to scale it down to maybe 5 good teachers not 35..lol. Time is everything and not everyone is focused on the biblical essentials.
Amen to everything stated. All seven topics are issues I have faced at some point in time. Dealing with a couple of things now. Grateful for his insight.
Amen, Thank You Jesus for the Gift of the Holy Spirit. You are helping me so much. 🙇🏽🙇🏽🙇🏽🙏🏻💖 I hear You loud and clear in this message. Help me with the Power to comply🙏🏻🙏🏻
As I grow closer to the Lord, I sense more light flowing from myself. The brighter I feel, the more the darkness presses in. I have to grow brighter to combat the growing darkness, and as I grow brighter, the darkness grows darker. It is warfare. I am getting the swing of it, and now I am close to the point where I might die smiling, just when the darkness thinks it has won.
These are not C.S. Lewis' messages, they are from the channel creator - or the original producer of "Soulful Devotions." That creator was a Seventh-Day Adventist ("The Voice of Prophecy" Seventh-day Adventist Church). But C.S. was a heretic anyway.
😍This was so on point and very impactful and may the Lord continue to help let go of my addiction even the unknown ones as well in the mighty name of Jesus Amen 🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥
Amen, good godly advice from a person who experience these things in his life and share them with others, again it's about focusing on God his plan, may thy will be done! Amen.
I love this video. I needed to hear this. I need to QUIT worrying and trust God. Jesus died on the cross with horrific wounds, his pain was quite a lot more than what I’m going through. I say YES to God!
I am glad C S Lewis who died in 1965 cut back on things that did not edify and listened to more podcasts and TH-cam. When did TH-cam first start? How about podcasts?
Thank you for this message I believe that God wanted me to hear this message to encourage me and confirm what He is speaking to me. Thank You Lord I receive it In Mighty Name Of Jesus Amen

You forgot "Stop criticizing others and even yourself and being judgmental." Now don't take this as criticism, but just pointing it out.
@@parsonscarlson7984 You are right.. so there are 9 steps.
OK, 9 Steps 🙃
When it comes to overthinking things I'm good at that, so I must take his word on that into my heart.
My addiction mostly that I new God wanted me to quit:
1. Pc./ video games.
2. Movies.
3. Stop being a sports fanatic. Only sometimes watch highlights.
It was such a pain to quit all this, especially video games.
BUT the hardest sins to overcome are the pride, selfishness, envy and other self sins, that I’m still battling.
You will overcome in Jesus name.

@sandafriel3682... I completely understand ✝️ 🕊 🙌
AMEN 🔥 ! A GREAT MESSAGE FOR SURE. EVEN THOUGH THE ONE GIVING THE MESSAGE MAY BE GONE, THE ANOINTING ON THE MESSAGE NEVER LEAVES.
C.S. Lewis 1898-1963 never saw a computer, much less a podcast
Thanks for calling it out! Please also report this video.
Thank you, I didn't read this far down but as soon as it said podcasts and youtube...I knew something was up...🤦🏾♀️
@@jvargas4125yep heard youtube and knew something was wrong.
Whoever it is he probably expanded in what CS Lewis has said to fit our current days. I see nothing wrong with that since it is positive teaching.

Daily scripture reading is essential to ongoing Sanctification. Ephesians chapter 5. Galatians chapter 5. Hebrews 4:12 Living and Active word of God❤
Exactly. These aren’t the actual words of CS Lewis. :/ This channel is deceiving people. Please report this video.
AMEN 🙏🙏🙏🙏🙏🙏 PLEASE pray for me as I am currently going through a very complicated divorce process, and I need God's interventions and Provisions ASAP. Bless you all.

Amen! What a great message for Christians and all mankind!
I have a problem with this cellphone and TH-cam, except without it I wouldn't be listening to you right now. The solution is time management. Since I was born again I've changed this problem but not enough. Thanks for your message. Amen and thank you.

Yup. These phones are life vampires. Sucking the life out of us. Prioritize, prioritize, prioritize.
You should go in for a dopamine detox which means No Fone either 3 day's to start ,no talking to anyone,no physical activities gym etc just be your self have a go it works also be still and you can say ur devotion but no talking to anyone ❤

@Seeklip196T Absolutely! I am down to two or three teachers i watch on TH-cam. Down from like 30 subscriptions...lol
Man, helped tremendously.
These comments are from the channel producer - not C.S. Lewis .... although he does pop in the odd quote from Lewis.
@@Ancient-Paths So he's a liar? Lol.
Help us LORD GOD Almighty on our pilgrims journey To THEE 💖💖💖

2:36 Huh? I thought this was supposed to be CS Lewis. There were no podcasts or TH-cam when he was alive.
My thoughts exactly... 🤔
Have you ever used kindle to listen to ebooks? The voice is narrating his writings.
@sandlyalteon8246 Yeah I know it was a narrator and not CS Lewis but the fact that they mentioned podcasts and TH-cam is what I was referring to.
Very odd.
I noticed that too - I had thought the writing style was off.
Amen . 🙌
Amen thank you it help a lot to understand
Amen!! Very profound....have been blind to how much I have been feeding distractions and to the lack of courage to act on this truth.
Less is more to finding our way…Amen!
AMEN, I needed this. Thank you.
I felt each and every choice you mentioned and you are in point for which I think you know that ❤❤❤ love and peaceful life 🧬💟
Amen! God has blessed us with C Lewis' messages!
These are not C.S. Lewis' messages, they are from the channel creator - or the original producer of "Soulful Devotions." That creator was a Seventh-Day Adventist ("The Voice of Prophecy" Seventh-day Adventist Church). But C.S. was a heretic anyway.
