As a musician who was once pursuing a secular music career I can 100% confidently tell you that the devil is real. The Bible tells us that satan is the prince of the power of the air waves (Ephesians 2:2). I remember I was busking (street performing) in Kennewick, Washington and I was living in my car and had just lost my job. I needed to cross the railroad tracks to get to go get more water for myself. As I approached the railroad tracks I remembered hearing legends of Robert Johnson known as the king of Blues music that he had sold his soul to the devil and became the best guitar player in his area and genre. I was curious and frustrated that my music career was going nowhere after working so hard to achieved what I thought I wanted. I was so close to cutting my hand and letting my blood spill onto the tracks and say out loud that I sold my soul to satan. Right before I did that though I looked up to the sky and said out loud, “God, if you’re real, show me a sign right now and I will NEVER sell my soul to the devil”. I walked across the tracks and this man comes out of a shop called Franchino’s Stone and Tile right there off of Kennewick Avenue and he offered me a job within a minute of talking to him. Keep in mind I was living in my car and had just lost my other job. In this moment I knew that the God of the Bible was real and that the devil is real and that every single person in Hollywood, musicians, actors, politicians, celebrities have all sold their souls and are apart of a undercover satanic club that we the children of God are not apart of. Hallelujah that Christ was so merciful to me while I was still on the streets a year later in Austin Texas and He blessed me with His presence and radically saved me and has guided me and sanctified me. Praise Christ forever and ever. Amen.
My husband is exposed to secular music all day at work. No choice. Many people are in this position. Let's Pray for one another and all those in this situation.
That sucks I'm sorry. I'm thankful I can listen to my music at work but sometimes they will put on secular music. But older stuff that isn't at least so crude.
I also work around a lot of secular music , but since my deliverance , I honestly don’t even notice it anymore . I hear it , I’m not deaf to it , but I don’t really hear it , if that makes sense . Even songs I know , they don’t stick in my head , I don’t catch myself singing them, The desire is gone . It’s not even a battle , I believe God will cover your ears if it’s something that happens around you and you can’t “control” it. Praying for your husband ! There’s a difference between being around it and then deliberately listening and part taking . 🙏🏻
I do have those songs come in my head every once in awhile... But when I hear the songs for real they are almost disgusting and I wonder how I ever liked them
I was an r&b and rap fan my whole life, but since giving my life to Christ and fasting, I have no desire to listen to any of it anymore. Thank you Jesus.
GOD BLESS. I gave up secular music, movies, and shows on October 6, 2023. ✝️ One of the best decisions ever, besides giving up my earthly ways and giving everything to Christ.
We must let go of the love of earthly things. Where your treasure is there your heart is also. I gave my life to Him this year and let go of my secular music and watching movies/shows. I love metal music but I understood it isn’t glorifying God. Whatever is holy and pleasing.
GOD BLESS I just noticed that one day my heart was filled with praise and I've been listening only worship after that. My spiritual health is so much better and there's no way I'd go back to the depressed, sick angry life I had constantly in pain, while listening the songs talking about how life is depressing, sick and angry, nothing but pain. No thank you! Praise Jesus!
I gave up all secular music on a random day in June 2023. There were thousands of songs in tens of playlists that I deleted. Giving up worldly music changed the way I spoke (no more cussing), made me slow to anger, and motivated me to study the word. God is good. God Bless!
God Bless 💝 I pray everybody hears this WORD and protects what goes into their ears. What goes through your ears can affect your mind, and heart. So please hear this loving warning 🌈🥳✝️ love God more than you love your comfort and satisfying your old ways 💕
I am a music lover from very young I have loved music, I am a pastors wife I play on the praise team. You are 100 percent right secular music effects you.
God Bless you Isaiah!! I quit secular music about a month ago because I’ve been addicted to Christian music. My spirit has been so healthy because of the things you’ve talked about. I do pray for everyone who watches this video to commit to only watching Christian music. Even if you don’t want to because of a certain genre or artist. It is worth it. There is also different types of Christian music genre besides the church music. I pray that God will use me to help others when I become an adult to spread the gospel to others and show them the love of God. God bless everyone and have a very safe day/night ❤🙏
God Bless! This was one of the hardest things for me to part with because I was so steeped in it that I still get a song stuck in my head all the time & have to cast it down! Great video brother 👍🏻To God Be the Glory🙏🏻
I had a similar revelation from the Lord. I knew I had to get rid of secular music and nothing has been as easy as that. I loved my music. Loved it. I felt such conviction when I heard my son singing a secular lyric and it hit me. It all had to go. I haven’t cared for it since nor struggle with wanting to listen to it. I erased everything and haven’t gone back since I began my walk with the Lord. Now I hear my two sons since worship songs. I hear them sing along to worship music giving praise to our Lord!! Praise God!!!!!
Love the new videos you’re doing. My husband and I gave up secular right away when we came to the Lord. Now if I hear it anywhere I just cringe. Thank you Jesus for saving me and my family ❤
Yes, I CRINGE when I hear certain things I hear, music or television I used to watch. It's so hard to hear it now, praise God. ❤ He's made a change in our heart.

*Larry Burkett's book on "Giving and Tithing" drew me closer to God and helped my spirituality. 2020 was a year I literally lived it. I cashed in my life savings and gave it all away.

It is the digital market. That's been the secret to this wealth transfer. A lot of folks in the US and abroad are getting so much from it, God has been good to my household Thank you Jesus
God Bless. When I first got saved , music was my all in all and I felt convicted over the music I would play and God helped me to slowly get rid of it, then all I wanted to listen to was Praise music, and I felt lighter and strongholds break when I did that. It is very powerful.
God bless!!!! I love my Christian music and I still love the blues! True blues does not include bad language, violence or satanic influences…I will, however, be on guard for this slippery slope! Thank you, Isaiah! Love The Tripod Teachings! 🙏🏽❤️🙏🏽
God bless! Agree with this! My husband gave up his metal music years ago after I gave him the same challenge of not listening to the secular music for a week; he never went back.
GOD BLESS ❤ I switched to listening to only Christian music and I feel way more at peace, way more joy, and way more God focused. I wake up with a gospel song in my head which sets the tone of praise for my whole day, praise God ❤
Same here! Nothing wrong with some secular music, like classical music, for example, which I was trained on. Nothing but music that lifts up Jesus for me only...praise and worship and hymns, too! Do you like hymns? If you click on my channel there are tons of uplifting songs there all about our precious Jesus and Daddy God!
@@WRVCaringCompassionateLoving tons!!! Zee spiritual sniper is amazing. Rare of breed, JP got saved. Tyson James. ASAP preach. Terrain. Matthew west. Bryann Trejo. Just to name a few.
God bless! I got rid of the secular music as part of one of many purges I’ve done. To this day songs will pop up outta nowhere or when I’m in the store I’ll hear a song from my past and it brings back memories feelings thoughts and many other things. Music has power.
Amen!!!! GOD BLESS If the Bible says life and death come out of the mouth Choose Life !!!! 🛑 STOP LISTENING 🎧 TO DEATH 💀 LYRICS THAT DONT EDIFY OR SANCTIFY YOU
I AGREE with you COMPLETELY brother man!!! When I first got saved, music was one of The first things God convicted me of all well!!! (It killed me to get rid of all those CDs and playlists I spent 30+years collecting...lol BUT IT WAS WORTH IT!!!!) I LOVED music and used it as one of my therapies when I was sad or mad. Or even just to jam and have fun!!! I'd Much Rather jam out to all the awesome Christian artists I've found! I like all sorts of music. I wish I could find more country type artists, but what I've found in other artists so far is 🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥!!!!!!! Just like recovery, walking with Christ is hard sometimes. BUT IT'S WORTH IT!!!!!! Is YOUR Savior worth glorifying all the time? Mine sure is!!! Thanks Isaiah!!! (Definitely listened to the end, like usual!) I love y'all!! God bless!! 🙏❤️😊
God Bless. Just a few months into me getting saved (in 2008) I was scheduled to give my testimony at a church service. A week prior at the same church parking lot I had a laptop, Ipod (80GB) and some of my kids stuff stolen. In that Ipod I was still struggling with giving up my hundreds/thousands of dollars of songs I had accumulated throughout the years. God made the decision for me and allowed that to happen. Now, I am all for removing secular music immediately since that was a hinderance in my life.
This has been hard for me, I’ve been back and fourth with a Christian and rap playlist, but everytime I change to the rap I feel the conviction to go back. It sucks cause I know I have to stop. But I do Lord forgive me thanks for this video.
God bless you my brotha. I’m off the secular music. I was a rap cat. Zee and Bryann T be slappin. Young bro, EGR outta Stockton. I love all worship genres. Marcus Rogers recently dropped a 90s themed track new Jack swing style it was a fun song.
God bless! Love this new camera setup. And totally 💯 agree with you on this matter! Praise the Lord for you guys, we’ve gotten rid of so many things from our home and lives that are not of the Lord. Blessings from Israel, brother 🙌
The Lord showed me that He is the creator of music. Music is spiritual regardless of the sound of it or the words being sung or spoken. It can be righteous or it can be wicked.
Yes! My first experience with The Holy Spirit was related to music. He said music is our power over the devil. So now I'm using music as my weapon over the enemy!
GOD BLESS! Thank you for doing this. My friend thinks it's ok to still listen to old school music. He says he doesn't listen to the new vulgar music but listens to "real music". I'm sending this to him! Appreciate you taking the time to do this one!
God Bless.. totally agree. Anxiety gone when I dumped secular music years ago. eliminated all sexual sin. Spirit also told me to stop all high sugar foods. The last is the hardest for me.
This is one of the battles I’m dealing with in my life as a Christian listening to second music I’m 42 years old but I don’t listen to none of the horrible music today. I listen to stuff from the 80s 90s early 2000s sometimes even the 60s and 70s, whether there is rock ‘n’ roll or alternative rock ormusic and some hip-hop I’m justifying. But it’s something that I’ve been struggling with for quite a while like there are months where I go without listening to secular music and then I go back.
@Wrcallofduty420 I struggle with secular music (more like EDM Tiesto, etc) when I workout. I don't listen to music during the day but when I workout I thrive on the high energy power of EMD. I understand the struggle of staying "clean" and then going back. I think what helps is when you actually read the lyrics and it really opens your eyes cuz' a lot of the songs that sound okay are really bad. For example read the lyrics the Beatles wrote for Strawberry Fields and it's all gibberish, nonsense and written by the devil. That is one of the most bizarre songs I've ever read. Check it out and be encouraged you are going on the right path! We know better and God has called us out as God knows we WANT to be closer to HIM. Think about this: God is calling us out of something so "basic" as secular music because he knows we want to get close to him so the Holy Spirit is convicting us because God is showing us the way and think about other people and how they think we're nuts for thinking this way and the reason they think we are crazy is because they are not desiring Jesus1 God bless you and be encouraged as you are doing very well!
If you love the 80’s 70’s vibe ( huge fan too ) I recommend ; Petra, the Imperials, Chuck Girard, DC talk, swithfoot ( and there are so many others ) ! All Christian’s artists, and their musics are so good ! Be blessed !
Nothing CAN FORCE YOU TO SIN..ITS ABOUT your inner strength NOT TO do it. I like clean hip hop and Rapp that's not secular..there are good songs out there, you just have to know which are NOT dirty
Music is so much a part of my life, that I was a DJ at one point in time. I currently have playlist, after playlist, after playlist of music videos on my YT account. I guess I'm gonna be going through and deleting most of it. I needed to see this today. Thankyou Isaiah!
All i listen to is Christian music. I love it. I dont like to listen to secular music. Even when someone else is playing it. When i am in someone elses car, and theyre playing secular, then when i get into my car, its such a different atmosphere and glad to hear Gods music.
secular doesn't mean "goes against God" it means, "denoting attitudes, activities, or other things that have no religious or spiritual basis. Contrasted with sacred" if its speaks "sin" yes it is wrong, if you're putting it before God yes its wrong but if its just talking about having fun not doing sinful stuff its ok. God bless.
I love the blues and that is my feeling about the true and soulful crying out of the human heart! I do not listen to anything trashy or disrespectful. Thank you for your post!
I'm 54 and yeah, I used to listen to alot of metal and punk rock way back in the day, Along with other genres of rock, such as Alt Rock, progressive, and all kinds of other concept stuff and new wave and avant gard, industrial metal, synth metal, instrumental balads, etc,etc, but also though, I would actually switch to Techno and Electronica from time to time. These days, my naturally favorite type of stuff tends to be anything instrumental. I tend to mostly prefer music that's without vocals. I am an Aspie(On the spectrum and simultaneously high functioning) so maybe that's what normally tends to happen to 50 something year old aspies. I've listened to a decent amount of Christian/Worship music. I have no problem with it if it's a specific genre. Not gonna lie though, I just cannot tolerate pop or likewise based music of any sort. Yes I have my natural biases. It is what it is. If I'm going to listen to Christian/Worship based music then it's basically going to Have to be either Christian Metal, or the contrary contrasting secondary preference would be Christian Country music, believe it or not. Quite a contrast there..!l Like I stated though, I generally much prefer instrumental music. Classical, Symphonic, orchestra type stuff, like, what they often dub into alot of 1920's silent movies. Also, I often enjoy Jazz music. I find it soothing. Soundscapes as well. Very meditative and peacefull. Alot of it sounds quite heavenly. Also, I tend to like hearing classic videogame instrumental music themes. They often have a profoundly feel good effect to them.
A year ago when I had an encounter with Jesus and stopped being a cultural Christian, I deleted all the Netflix/hulu like apps, and stopped secular music. No one told me to, I just wanted Jesus in every thought I have. Haven’t gone back 🙌🏼 and I can see now more than ever the spirits behind the junk music and TV
Praise God. Can you share a condensed version of your encounter with Jesus? I had a supernatural experience that brought me to Jesus and I love hearing other people's testimonies.
Alright brother, I'll do it for 1 week. After 7 days from now I'll come back here and talk to you about it. I'll take it seriously, I won't just stop with the secular music but I'll fight everything my conscience accuses me of and we'll see how it goes.
@@malachistephenson1319 Short version: Way better than I had initially thought it'd be Detailed version: I'm listening mostly to worship songs since I don't like human centered songs. Honestly, big improvement, I'm actually surprised about that. You see, I work really hard because I don't want to be seen as lazy by the Lord, but what ended up happening was that I wasn't spending time with him because I was working (literally working) for him, and when I'd have some extra time I'd either play video games with my wife or listen to music. Since 2 days ago I decided to uninstall games and use that time for God instead and honestly it is so weird to realize I did have time for God I'm just dumb lol. Also, not just listening to worship(and worshiping) but I also decided to read scripture. Just started to read the psalms since I've never read all the 150 of them, doing 10 chapters a day for now, and it is so refreshing. Like, you know, reading good things about God and praising him really is taking away the stress from day-to-day life and also debunking a bunch of very goofy thought processes I was developing lately.
@kalefraser2623, Lord Father, I ask that you supernaturally give Kale the strength to get rid of his addiction. Father only you know his heart and the strong hold he is dealing with. The enemy using addictions to destroy but Lord you will take things negatives and make positives. I ask that you give Kale your heart so that he can feel your immense love and that you guide and light his path. Kale, we all have different types of addictions and struggles and sometimes certain things don’t go away but get easier to manage and over come. I pray for blessing and healing in your life in Jesus name, Amen. God bless you and loves you never forget that no matter how many times you stumble. We are all sinners and one of our goals as Christian’s is to from wanting to sin to not wanting to sin.
God Bless!! Yeahhhhh I’ve been on the fence about this issue the last couple of weeks. I think God is putting it in my heart to examine this and examine His will on the matter. Thank you for the insight. I’m going to take the 1 week challenge for now and see how it goes.
God Bless! It makes sense why I've always preferred instrumental music over music with words. I have always believed the very thing you talked about. Words have power...
Brother Isaiah preach! When I was younger I would have the radio on when I was sleeping and would have constant nightmares and some messages from the music programme your mind in the spirit
Yes totally agree, I grew up with a huge passion for music and listening to hours of cd’s every day and being a musician myself, this was one of the hardest things to let go of even songs that seemed harmless like James Taylor or something like that still has a worldly spirit and influence, like you said when you listen and sing the songs you’re not strengthening your spirit man you’re actually draining your spirit, you only strengthen it with worship music, you can have that passion as long as it’s Godly, to give GOD the glory and honor hallelujah!
Yes! This has been on my heart. Music can take me back to feelings of my past life. Its seductive. I recently went and “unliked” so may songs on my spotify. I also changed all the “preset” stations in my car to the same 2 christian stations so there is no temptation.
God bless!! I took the 30 day challenge years ago & I've never wanted anything but Christian music since. I feel the difference & didn't realize how much influence it had until I took the challenge. I see it on people now ( with eyes of love not trying to judge).
I love these heart to heart discussions in such a relaxed setting. I literally feel like I’m sitting at the table with you. I totally agree with your view. I want to seize every moment I can to glorify God, as my Spirit is simultaneously getting fed. The times are here where we have no time to waste on worthless gain. I love you son and I’m so so proud of your stance of no compromise. God is faithful!..🙏
God Bless. Thankfully I was never into secular music, but I pray for all my friends that listen to it. My eyes have really been open to how bad secular music truly is.
GOD BLESS!! Isaiah, never stop doing these types of videos. I learn so much (especially as a just born again Christian) in so little time. You explain all the reasons in the natural way so I understand, then give biblical references explaining what those mean!! I truly appreciate you and all you do. Your obedience to God and His Kingdom is so admirable, I TRULY wish to be able to get anywhere near where you are. God is so proud of you brother ❤️🙏🙌❤️🔥👑
God Bless You for sharing this. Amen to everything you said! Especially the statement, "what's right about it", instead of asking "what's wrong with it". The Bible says we are not our own, we are bought with a price, therefore glorify God in your body, and in your spirit, which are God's. 1 Corinthians 6:20 Anything in our lives that isn't glorifying God is against God and needs to be done away with. Whether it's music, how we dress, how we speak, how we interact with others.

GOD BLESS ❤ I switched to listening to only Christian music and I feel way more at peace, way more joy, and way more God focused. I wake up with a gospel song in my head which sets the tone of praise for my whole day, praise God ❤
Thank u, I needed this. Is confirmation.
100% agree!!! We have done this in our household and it has been so good! Especially for the kids! We need to protect and look after their spirits!!
God bless!!! Loving these videos Isaias thank you for taking the time 😊❤
My family and I have watched you for years. God bless you, your family, and your ministry!
GOD BLESS 🙌 🙏
If the music doesn’t glorify God then I won’t listen to it. I love Praise and Worship music ONLY! I get nothing from secular music.
Same here! Nothing wrong with some secular music, like classical music, for example, which I was trained on. Nothing but music that lifts up Jesus for me only...praise and worship and hymns, too! Do you like hymns? If you click on my channel there are tons of uplifting songs there all about our precious Jesus and Daddy God!
Please put these videos in a playlist. So I can watch them all. Don’t stop these
Also I love how Christian music has many different genres to it. There is music for everyone and it glorifies our King Jesus!!!
Any recommendations?
@@WRVCaringCompassionateLoving tons!!! Zee spiritual sniper is amazing. Rare of breed, JP got saved. Tyson James. ASAP preach. Terrain. Matthew west. Bryann Trejo. Just to name a few.
@@WRVCaringCompassionateLoving bryann t has so many amazing songs and rare of breed for sure is one of my top fav.
Spiritual sniper by ZEE was the first Cristian rap song I ever heard and it’s AMAZING!!!
@@MommaDx5HI thanks by the way this is really helpful
God bless!
I got rid of the secular music as part of one of many purges I’ve done. To this day songs will pop up outta nowhere or when I’m in the store I’ll hear a song from my past and it brings back memories feelings thoughts and many other things. Music has power.
Amen!!!!
GOD BLESS
If the Bible says life and death come out of the mouth
Choose Life !!!!
🛑 STOP LISTENING 🎧 TO DEATH 💀 LYRICS THAT DONT EDIFY OR SANCTIFY YOU
GOD BLESSED 🙌
PREACH BROTHA!
God Bless
God bless 🙏 I like this style of video
Great video! And I love the background.
Great advice I will be by the grace of God cutting away secular music completely. Thank you brother and God bless you!
I AGREE with you COMPLETELY brother man!!!
When I first got saved, music was one of The first things God convicted me of all well!!! (It killed me to get rid of all those CDs and playlists I spent 30+years collecting...lol BUT IT WAS WORTH IT!!!!) I LOVED music and used it as one of my therapies when I was sad or mad. Or even just to jam and have fun!!!
I'd Much Rather jam out to all the awesome Christian artists I've found! I like all sorts of music. I wish I could find more country type artists, but what I've found in other artists so far is 🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥!!!!!!!
Just like recovery, walking with Christ is hard sometimes.
BUT IT'S WORTH IT!!!!!!
Is YOUR Savior worth glorifying all the time? Mine sure is!!!
Thanks Isaiah!!! (Definitely listened to the end, like usual!)
I love y'all!!
God bless!!
🙏❤️😊
Can you share some of your favorite artists and songs that are not just generic Sunday morning worship?
@@speedboy6776👍🙂. I was wondering that too!
Katy Nicole has a good country-ish song called “by the grace of God”
God bless you
PRAISE ye the LORD!!! ✝️❤️🔥🛐🕊👑🦁🙏🏻🩸
Well done Isaiah ❤
God Bless.
Just a few months into me getting saved (in 2008) I was scheduled to give my testimony at a church service. A week prior at the same church parking lot I had a laptop, Ipod (80GB) and some of my kids stuff stolen. In that Ipod I was still struggling with giving up my hundreds/thousands of dollars of songs I had accumulated throughout the years. God made the decision for me and allowed that to happen. Now, I am all for removing secular music immediately since that was a hinderance in my life.
GOD BLESS!!! ❤❤❤
This has been hard for me, I’ve been back and fourth with a Christian and rap playlist, but everytime I change to the rap I feel the conviction to go back. It sucks cause I know I have to stop. But I do Lord forgive me thanks for this video.
Yeah, I agree. After my intense Salvation experience and Baptism I feel sick to hear and see unholy things. GOD BLESS
God bless. You're 100 percent correct. Thank you for your exhortation. The church needs to get cleaned up!
God bless you my brotha. I’m off the secular music. I was a rap cat. Zee and Bryann T be slappin. Young bro, EGR outta Stockton. I love all worship genres. Marcus Rogers recently dropped a 90s themed track new Jack swing style it was a fun song.
Hey Isaiah, have you heard Carman Liccardiellos’s music. If not, it’s worth checking out, especially his music videos
May God help us glorify him through all parts of our body
God bless! Love this new camera setup. And totally 💯 agree with you on this matter! Praise the Lord for you guys, we’ve gotten rid of so many things from our home and lives that are not of the Lord. Blessings from Israel, brother 🙌
The Lord showed me that He is the creator of music. Music is spiritual regardless of the sound of it or the words being sung or spoken. It can be righteous or it can be wicked.
THANK YOU for that!!! I love the blues!
Yes! My first experience with The Holy Spirit was related to music. He said music is our power over the devil. So now I'm using music as my weapon over the enemy!
100%duality
GOD BLESS! Thank you for doing this. My friend thinks it's ok to still listen to old school music. He says he doesn't listen to the new vulgar music but listens to "real music". I'm sending this to him! Appreciate you taking the time to do this one!
God Bless.. totally agree. Anxiety gone when I dumped secular music years ago. eliminated all sexual sin. Spirit also told me to stop all high sugar foods. The last is the hardest for me.
God Bless. Removing all my secular playlist. Thank you Isaiah.
This is one of the battles I’m dealing with in my life as a Christian listening to second music I’m 42 years old but I don’t listen to none of the horrible music today. I listen to stuff from the 80s 90s early 2000s sometimes even the 60s and 70s, whether there is rock ‘n’ roll or alternative rock ormusic and some hip-hop I’m justifying. But it’s something that I’ve been struggling with for quite a while like there are months where I go without listening to secular music and then I go back.
Praying for your deliverance! You are not alone..
@Wrcallofduty420 I struggle with secular music (more like EDM Tiesto, etc) when I workout. I don't listen to music during the day but when I workout I thrive on the high energy power of EMD. I understand the struggle of staying "clean" and then going back. I think what helps is when you actually read the lyrics and it really opens your eyes cuz' a lot of the songs that sound okay are really bad. For example read the lyrics the Beatles wrote for Strawberry Fields and it's all gibberish, nonsense and written by the devil. That is one of the most bizarre songs I've ever read. Check it out and be encouraged you are going on the right path! We know better and God has called us out as God knows we WANT to be closer to HIM. Think about this: God is calling us out of something so "basic" as secular music because he knows we want to get close to him so the Holy Spirit is convicting us because God is showing us the way and think about other people and how they think we're nuts for thinking this way and the reason they think we are crazy is because they are not desiring Jesus1 God bless you and be encouraged as you are doing very well!
If you love the 80’s 70’s vibe ( huge fan too ) I recommend ; Petra, the Imperials, Chuck Girard, DC talk, swithfoot ( and there are so many others ) ! All Christian’s artists, and their musics are so good ! Be blessed !
@@LisaPicard_ Thank you for the suggestions. I really appreciate it. God bless you!
God bless!
I've struggled with this and NO DONT DO IT is so bad and it literally programs you to sin
Nothing CAN FORCE YOU TO SIN..ITS ABOUT your inner strength NOT TO do it. I like clean hip hop and Rapp that's not secular..there are good songs out there, you just have to know which are NOT dirty
@luzlopez776 if it doesn't glorify God it glorifies Satan..
No. 😂
Same thank god for setting me free! 🙌🏼
What about Christian Artists who are secretly satanic or freemasons like Kirk Franklin and Lecrae? 😅
Music is so much a part of my life, that I was a DJ at one point in time. I currently have playlist, after playlist, after playlist of music videos on my YT account. I guess I'm gonna be going through and deleting most of it. I needed to see this today. Thankyou Isaiah!
All i listen to is Christian music. I love it. I dont like to listen to secular music. Even when someone else is playing it. When i am in someone elses car, and theyre playing secular, then when i get into my car, its such a different atmosphere and glad to hear Gods music.
Yes sir. Very true.
secular doesn't mean "goes against God" it means, "denoting attitudes, activities, or other things that have no religious or spiritual basis. Contrasted with sacred" if its speaks "sin" yes it is wrong, if you're putting it before God yes its wrong but if its just talking about having fun not doing sinful stuff its ok.
God bless.
I love the blues and that is my feeling about the true and soulful crying out of the human heart! I do not listen to anything trashy or disrespectful. Thank you for your post!
I'm 54 and yeah, I used to listen to alot of metal and punk rock way back in the day, Along with other genres of rock, such as Alt Rock, progressive, and all kinds of other concept stuff and new wave and avant gard, industrial metal, synth metal, instrumental balads, etc,etc, but also though, I would actually switch to Techno and Electronica from time to time.
These days, my naturally favorite type of stuff tends to be anything instrumental. I tend to mostly prefer music that's without vocals. I am an Aspie(On the spectrum and simultaneously high functioning) so maybe that's what normally tends to happen to 50 something year old aspies. I've listened to a decent amount of Christian/Worship music. I have no problem with it if it's a specific genre. Not gonna lie though, I just cannot tolerate pop or likewise based music of any sort. Yes I have my natural biases. It is what it is. If I'm going to listen to Christian/Worship based music then it's basically going to Have to be either Christian Metal, or the contrary contrasting secondary preference would be Christian Country music, believe it or not. Quite a contrast there..!l
Like I stated though, I generally much prefer instrumental music. Classical, Symphonic, orchestra type stuff, like, what they often dub into alot of 1920's silent movies.
Also, I often enjoy Jazz music. I find it soothing. Soundscapes as well. Very meditative and peacefull. Alot of it sounds quite heavenly. Also, I tend to like hearing classic videogame instrumental music themes. They often have a profoundly feel good effect to them.
@@robertdecker146 have you heard Third Day’s Angus Dei??? It is amazing!!!!!
God bless. ❤️🔥 the conviction me and my future wife are having right now. Pray for us brother Geo and Jasmine
A year ago when I had an encounter with Jesus and stopped being a cultural Christian, I deleted all the Netflix/hulu like apps, and stopped secular music. No one told me to, I just wanted Jesus in every thought I have. Haven’t gone back 🙌🏼 and I can see now more than ever the spirits behind the junk music and TV
Praise God and same, God is so good and He wants the best for us, that’s why he convicts us in our wrongdoing and leads us to holiness🙏❤️✝️
Praise God.
Can you share a condensed version of your encounter with Jesus?
I had a supernatural experience that brought me to Jesus and I love hearing other people's testimonies.
And mine was a year ago too! About to come up on the year anniversary
GOD BLESS WE WANT MORE VIDEOS
Alright brother, I'll do it for 1 week.
After 7 days from now I'll come back here and talk to you about it.
I'll take it seriously, I won't just stop with the secular music but I'll fight everything my conscience accuses me of and we'll see how it goes.
How’s it going so far?
@@malachistephenson1319
Short version: Way better than I had initially thought it'd be
Detailed version:
I'm listening mostly to worship songs since I don't like human centered songs.
Honestly, big improvement, I'm actually surprised about that.
You see, I work really hard because I don't want to be seen as lazy by the Lord, but what ended up happening was that I wasn't spending time with him because I was working (literally working) for him, and when I'd have some extra time I'd either play video games with my wife or listen to music. Since 2 days ago I decided to uninstall games and use that time for God instead and honestly it is so weird to realize I did have time for God I'm just dumb lol. Also, not just listening to worship(and worshiping) but I also decided to read scripture. Just started to read the psalms since I've never read all the 150 of them, doing 10 chapters a day for now, and it is so refreshing. Like, you know, reading good things about God and praising him really is taking away the stress from day-to-day life and also debunking a bunch of very goofy thought processes I was developing lately.
God bless, please pray for me trying to give up heavy addiction 🙏
@kalefraser2623, Lord Father, I ask that you supernaturally give Kale the strength to get rid of his addiction. Father only you know his heart and the strong hold he is dealing with. The enemy using addictions to destroy but Lord you will take things negatives and make positives. I ask that you give Kale your heart so that he can feel your immense love and that you guide and light his path. Kale, we all have different types of addictions and struggles and sometimes certain things don’t go away but get easier to manage and over come. I pray for blessing and healing in your life in Jesus name, Amen. God bless you and loves you never forget that no matter how many times you stumble. We are all sinners and one of our goals as Christian’s is to from wanting to sin to not wanting to sin.
God Bless! You are the only Pastor that I have ever heard speak on this! So grateful to have met you and your family! So cool Truth!
GOD BLESS. Thank you Isaiah for speaking on this subject. I’ve been trying to get this to my husband who struggles on not listening to secular music.
God Bless!! Yeahhhhh I’ve been on the fence about this issue the last couple of weeks. I think God is putting it in my heart to examine this and examine His will on the matter. Thank you for the insight. I’m going to take the 1 week challenge for now and see how it goes.
I totally agree with you brother. Keep preaching the Truth. God bless you, brother.
God Bless! I saw a huge change when I stopped listening to secular music
God Bless! It makes sense why I've always preferred instrumental music over music with words. I have always believed the very thing you talked about. Words have power...
God bless I've been feeling convinced I've been trying to give God all my praise over the past several weeks
Brother Isaiah preach! When I was younger I would have the radio on when I was sleeping and would have constant nightmares and some messages from the music programme your mind in the spirit
Yes totally agree, I grew up with a huge passion for music and listening to hours of cd’s every day and being a musician myself, this was one of the hardest things to let go of even songs that seemed harmless like James Taylor or something like that still has a worldly spirit and influence, like you said when you listen and sing the songs you’re not strengthening your spirit man you’re actually draining your spirit, you only strengthen it with worship music, you can have that passion as long as it’s Godly, to give GOD the glory and honor hallelujah!
Thank you my mentor.❤
Every content in this space is of maximum quality.
God Bless Isaiah! A much needed message!
Yes! This has been on my heart. Music can take me back to feelings of my past life. Its seductive. I recently went and “unliked” so may songs on my spotify. I also changed all the “preset” stations in my car to the same 2 christian stations so there is no temptation.
God bless! I completely agree. Do not be conformed to this world but be transformed by the renewing of your mind.
God bless!! I took the 30 day challenge years ago & I've never wanted anything but Christian music since. I feel the difference & didn't realize how much influence it had until I took the challenge. I see it on people now ( with eyes of love not trying to judge).
I love these heart to heart discussions in such a relaxed setting. I literally feel like I’m sitting at the table with you. I totally agree with your view. I want to seize every moment I can to glorify God, as my Spirit is simultaneously getting fed. The times are here where we have no time to waste on worthless gain. I love you son and I’m so so proud of your stance of no compromise. God is faithful!..🙏
God bless you & your family Isaiah! I had the same conviction about music when I got serious with God. Keep it up brother.
God Bless.
Thankfully I was never into secular music, but I pray for all my friends that listen to it. My eyes have really been open to how bad secular music truly is.
God Bless. Thank You Pastor Isaiah. Much Love!
GOD BLESS!!
Isaiah, never stop doing these types of videos. I learn so much (especially as a just born again Christian) in so little time. You explain all the reasons in the natural way so I understand, then give biblical references explaining what those mean!!
I truly appreciate you and all you do. Your obedience to God and His Kingdom is so admirable, I TRULY wish to be able to get anywhere near where you are. God is so proud of you brother ❤️🙏🙌❤️🔥👑
God Bless You for sharing this. Amen to everything you said! Especially the statement, "what's right about it", instead of asking "what's wrong with it". The Bible says we are not our own, we are bought with a price, therefore glorify God in your body, and in your spirit, which are God's. 1 Corinthians 6:20
Anything in our lives that isn't glorifying God is against God and needs to be done away with. Whether it's music, how we dress, how we speak, how we interact with others.
God Bless❤
This is a much needed message! May we all focus in Jesus and his kingdom. Thank you Isaiah and God bless!
I agree wholeheartedly. I gave it up when I began paying attention to the lyric ❤️✝️❤️😊
God bless 👏🏾 Thank you for sharing the Truth!
GOD BLESS YOU ISAIAH AND PRAISE THE LORD ✝️❤️😀
Amen,, this is so worth sharing to help others in the awakening process.
