WHY I STOPPED BEING AN INFLUENCER
ฝัง
- เผยแพร่เมื่อ 24 ก.พ. 2022
- I got serious about social media when I was looking for a side hustle I could do while being a stay-at-home mom. Many influencers made brand deals and making money through TH-cam look so fun and easy. I thought it would be the best thing for me and my family, but it left me drained and frustrated. God let me in on a little secret that left me at a crossroads, and I want to share that with you today.
“Am I now trying to win the approval of human beings, or of God? Or am I trying to please people? If I were still trying to please people, I would not be a servant of Christ.” - Galatians 1:10

There’s so much truth in what you’re saying. What hit me is, “People don’t need coupon codes, people need Jesus”. Thank you for being obedient to the Holy Spirit and may the fruit of your labor continue to flourish.
Thank you. I really appreciate that.
@@KytiaLamour you’re welcome!
Thank you so much for speaking on this topic!!!
It needed to be said. So much wisdom in this video!
Thank you for being willing to speak up and follow His plan! 🙏🏾
You’re my sweetheart. 🔥💋
@@KytiaLamour 🥰
Amen share the word of God!!! same here I have not started and pushed my other channel because I don’t want in the back of my head to be make money, make money. 🤷🏽♂️ We are going to start the ministry channel but I don’t want to feel like I’m doing it for clout or money. My real desire is to minister to people and see them set free from addictions etc. thank you for this video. I appreciate you! Let’s kingdom build!!!
Amen. As long as your motivation is to please God and you’re being obedient to what He’s called you to do, you won’t get caught up in making money an idol. 🙏🏼
🙌🏼🙌🏼 amen
Great msg! God asked me to demonetise my channel and I couldn’t understand why but did it, but hearing you makes a lot of sense!
Yeah, it’s been an interesting journey following The Lord, and He knows our heart and the faith steps we need to implement in order to fully rely on Him. I’m still not an influencer (having sponsorships and collabs drive my social media content), but God has started opening some of those doors back up to work with brands every once in a while. I’m so glad I decided not to become a billboard for brands only. God is good!
I agree with everything you’re saying… I really do… I would say that some have goals and quit their jobs because they saw the potential in TH-cam and when things are going well and you’re able to pay the bills it would suck for your income to disappear. I did not quit my job, I still work. I would be one of those ones who do both, but my channel is not an influencer it’s more TH-cam and TikTok tips and tutorials but I still get paid from ads so I can relate to what your saying. Your speaking truth in your videos. The world needs God, Jesus now more than ever before. As you prayed for people in the video for direction is what is definitely needed as the Christian influencers will begin to rise up for Christ and not hide during these times that God wants to use them.
Yes, I think it’s crucial to get direction and clarity from God to do what He’s called us to do. When we try to figure it out ourselves, I think we can miss out on the way we’re meant to impact the world the most for His glory. It’s all about obedience. 🙏🏼
@@KytiaLamour yes Amen 🙏
Love your hair! Thank you for yielding to God’s will for your platform 🙏🏽
Awww thanks!
I’ve been following you for years. I missed your content when you didn’t post as much; and now I’m so glad you’re sharing more again. We needed to hear this message. Thank you ❤️🙏🏾
😢 Thank you.
Wow! Wow! I needed this. Thank you for sharing this! Thank you for allowing God to use you ❤️🙏.
Thank you, Jesus! He has perfect timing!
Ive gotten this conviction too. Glad you're able to speak on it now.
Thank you. I appreciate that!
Amen!!!! Great vlog Kytia Lamour!👋🏾💕
Thanks so much for watching!
"People need Jesus more than coupon codes" Well said. I could tell it too alot for you to bring this message but it is well received. 👏🏾🙌🏾🙏🏾💜
Omg I just love u so much! You always speak on the realest stuff and I always agree with what u say! 💜 this definitely spoke to me because that’s how I’m feeling with my little fashion channel- like I want to start making money from it but at the same time I feel like it’s so shallow and a waste of time etc etc. and like I need to be doing something more for the kingdom. I do believe God has called me to the arts + entertainment field , so as far as fashion I believe I’m supposed to have a store and be a seller like Lydia from the Bible (because I do have a strong passion for vintage clothing + fashion). And as far as YT I think I’m supposed to have a ministry channel. So I guess I need to start planning and preparing for my online ministry work. I’m definitely seeking God’s direction in this. Thank you so much for ur faithfulness and boldness and willingness to do these videos and kingdom work. I pray Abba Father continues to bless you abundantly and keep you and ur family in Jesus Christ’s mighty name 🙏🏼💕
Thank you. I always appreciate your constant support. I do want to make sure you know it’s fine that you have a fashion channel and that God has called you to arts and entertainment. My main point is that if we’re doing everything except sharing the gospel, then we’re forsaking such a major part of our Christian walk. We just have to be guided and obedient and never put ourselves in a position where we’re afraid to say or do what God needs us to. He will make sure we always have a means of gaining resources we need and that looks different for everyone. ❤️
@@KytiaLamour thank u! Well said 🥰
Awesome Thanks !
🙏🏼🙏🏼🙏🏼
Thanks for sharing 👍🏾❤️
Amen! We love you no matter what!
Well thank you!
Thanks.
☺️
Amen 🙏🏾

Use to be a massive influencer for god and success love and rightness. And it was toxic. All i thought and felt was how to change the world on my terms and basically wanted to inspire world to be better and right. Been 8 years sober. Vege for 10. Creating music for 30 years. Single 10 years. Working a ordinary job stocking shelves. And exercising every day. And meditation sleep and doing right every day. I pray every day and just calmly get on with it. I no longer control people and try and get people to god . The universe is a more beautiful creation. I plant trees and i help the rivers stay clean. Ive healed my relationship with loved ones and myself and jesus. I still smoke tho only tobacco. And i just plod thru life fully loving life with no regrets except smoking . My daughters are successful and so is my loved family and friends . I fufill my needs and wants and dreams and desires. Tho im celibate and its such a more anazing life. Like alcohol and not putting the toxic in your body. Influencing is just not doing that toxic action in your spirit.
Thank you for sharing this ! People need Jesus kindness and love . As a person who was a content creator it is good market but over saturated and people don’t talk about the bad side as well. Please continue to spread the gospel 🙏🏽
Thank you! If our only motivation for posting is to influence people on what to buy, we’re missing out as Christians because we have the opportunity to share the gospel to the entire world with our platform.
Amen🙏
❤️
Amen 🙌🏾🙌🏾

Hmm this is thought provoking. I feel lead to use my creativity publicly on TH-cam I’m going to continue seeking God to see if this is his route.
Yes, however He wants to use you, be open to it. He definitely uses our physical talents as well as our spiritual gifts.
I remember when I first desired to become a influencer I was a fashion blogger and I walked away from it because God showed me how he could build me in that arena but my eyes were dead and it sickened me to talk about trends and Makeup this seasons colors I said no I can't keep doing this. I walked away and God pulled me into a fast that year, I wrote my book I healed I walked through a 4 year wilderness and funny enough now Gid wants me To ago back in but to do it For him position it to his T and Lead others how yo do it in a Christian way, Finding ways to speak on the Lord, find my Lane and Run it. God Gave Me 4 lanes now I have to find Order and position and Pacing to Grow.
Love that you brought this up! It’s not only important to do what God tells us to but to do it HIS WAY!
👏👏👏
