This was spot on!! Thank you. I recently came to that realization that light and darkness cannot mix concerning my walk and what I consume. So why am I watching movies/shows that go against what my Father says?! It could be a “good” show but as soon as they pop in sin, the whole show is now bad. 🫤 I barely watch tv now which is crazyyyy. Never would have imagined I would give up my trap music and ratchet tv shows 😭. But we have to glorify God in ALL areas of our lives. And a lot of what we consume feeds our flesh
@@rpc3243 yes! If you really listen the lyrics majority are really demonic forreal. Letting go of music was the hardest for me. But they speak garbage & rap opposite of what God’s Word says.
I remember when I was in high school at 6:30 while I’m getting dressed I was listening to king von and then trying to figure out why I was so angry and aggressive for the rest of the day
I’m 39 and have suffered from depression since a teenager. I can rap every lyric to Tupac, Biggie, Jay Z, and many other rappers. I can sing the lyrics to most 90s R&B songs. It wasn’t until 2023 when I gave my life back to Christ and entered into the wilderness season that I learned the purpose of this season is to unlearn things and the importance of guarding our ears and eye gates. We don’t magically forget the lyrics and movies we watched but as we begin putting God first in every area of life, the more I could see the importance of changing my playlists and not watching certain movies and shows. It’s hard to not cuss if all I hear and watch contain curse words! It’s hard to abstain from sex if all I hear and watch contains unmarried people having sex! It’s hard to let my first reaction be to pray if all I hear and watch is people reacting in flesh first then dealing with the consequences later! After all of these years, I can truly say that I am healed of depression by the grace of God and also removing toxicity from my ears and eyes. Cut all of it out of your life for 21 days and watch what you notice. I’m not saying everyone will be healed of depression if you remove secular music and movies from your life. That’s just one part of God changing us from the inside out. I am encouraging you to remove it and replace it with praying, gospel music, Bible reading, online sermons and Christian podcasts and take note of what happens.
Boy this came at just the right time! I was binge watching Married At First Sight yesterday, and then today I said to myself I’m not going to watch it so I put a ban on it for today. Fast forward several hours later, I then start playing the new Tyla song talking about making the body jump 🤦🏾♀️ straight after spending the whole day in worship and consuming Godly things and feeling edified. Then God said is that honorable and I was like yikes! And then I turned it off, came on TH-cam and this message was first in line. He got me good😭😂🙏🏾 thank You Father for Your loving conviction . Thank you for this video- it is educational as well as constructive and convicting. Those questions are a great lens because why am I watching something that’s opposite to what I believe marriage should be and how God created marriage to be?!
I been trynna stop binge watching anime cause it’s my biggest distraction, watching it will cause me to be up later than usual then I can’t get up and be productive in other areas it’s to the point I’m more excited to watch another episode than sleep or read my word. But God is working on me and I feel the desire to watch it falling away
@@oliviawYeshuaI already do this and my problem is I have both desires I have the desire to watch all my podcasts music and shows about Jesus then I have days where I wanna watch anime and then days where I’m doing both my gosh and my spirit is having such a war right now
I used to listen to secular music allllll the time But lately tho i've been listening to Christian music and sometimes i don't even desire to listen to secular music😭 I really tried to replace my taste with christian music and they are so many more christian artist then i thought! I'm gonna try to not listen to secular music for a few weeks and see what changes!! Amazing video btw Your so funny aswell 😭🫶🫶
Another thing is some people will push back the thought of something dominating their mind or they don’t know that it’s dominating their mind and some people even make excuses about it
I think as we grow closer to God things that don’t glorify him loose their appeal. I used to listen to that kind of music and used to consume drama related TH-cam videos and now that I’m trying to get closer to God those things have lost their appeal to me. I definitely agree stop doing those things because you Love God not because you’re told to.
I quit listening to secular music almost a year ago. At that point it wasn't fully but I still got a LOT of hate because I grew up in a very musical family. I do not even desire to listen to non worship music anymore. My running Playlists are still filled with amazing songs and I've found so many genres I liked with worldly music. I never was a reality show or TV watcher because I didn't like the message and truly could not be bothered to sit down long enough to watch anything. But this is such a great message for everyone. I tell myself, would God want to listen/watch this with me? If not I know he wouldn't want me to consume it on my own either.
23:54 omg i had to stop watching true crime cause i was living in fear and thinking everyone have ill intentions lol. Sheesh. I watched it for edutainment but anxiety started happening so i had to cut it off
I struggle with listening to secular music. It might take me sometime to stop listening to it, but I do listen to gospel music more and podcasts. The music changing your mood and how we act remind me from the scene from the movie Clone Tyrone. I feel like you though like I’m not doing those things and sometimes it doesn’t change my mood but it can prob change my pov on things to a certain degree i am underlying way. idk lol
I relate to this so much and glad I came across this video. It’s very hard for me to free myself from secular music since I loved R&B music/concerts so much. 😩 but I now found plenty of podcasts or educational videos to listen to on my way to work or even during some free time I have during the day. I’m a teacher too lol
just got into an argument with someone on insta about warning people that music on posts might be graphic before they click . I dont listen to secular music that curses etc. My ears thank me for this.
Preach sister preach!! I want to add some informations about secular music, because it is really really dangerous. - I saw some producers even admiring that the beats created for most of nowadays songs are made in purpose to integrated them in our minds. - There are singers admitting that at a certain point of fame, a door will open to you. So either you enter that door, or either way you die. I saw one time Justin Bieber posting on Instagram saying we should now envy artists cuz we don’t know what they live! And he was so serious in his note because he was expressing how we don’t even know the world of music. - All popular artists sold their soul. Yes I’m talking about Ariana Grande, Rihanna, Beyoncé mostly, Kanye West, Drake, J Cole, Chris Brown, Playboy Carti, Carbi B, The Weeknd, Lana Del Rey, all of the k-pop (yes with BTS) and the list goes beyond. Ariana Grande’s song “Dangerous woman” in reverse praises the devil, also Rihanna’s songs “Umbrella, Where Have You Been, You Da one” etc. One time in concert, Lil Uzi Vert said that all of his fans are going to hell with him, like what??? - There is a quote I love about music saying that “when you listen to Godly music, you invite God’s presence. But when you are listening to any other music that is not worshipping God, whose presence are you inviting?” I can talk a little about secular music, but if as a Christian you think you can listen to these worldly artists, please don’t listen to them. Their music is made to hypnotize you, the simple fact of listening to it you’re inviting others spirits. I used to be a big fan of these artists, and I thank God because I’m not attracted to secular music anymore, it’s demonic. Take care of your eyes and ears, and may God bless you all🙏🏽
God bless you for this video! 1 Corinthians 10:31 I ve been feeling so guilty..There is a movie I just stopped in the middle because it was "pg" but had a masked person and witchcraft/hoodoo waking people up.
I love this video, and as many others have noted, this came at the right time. I’ve definitely had times where I’ve been pulled away from various artists and various shows. Especially in today’s society, I deleted TikTok last January, and I do not miss it! Only thing is a lot of those tick-tock‘s have transferred over to Instagram onto TH-cam. So that is the hard part, because you still encounter a lot of that Content, but not at the rate that you do on the TikTok app itself. But definitely agree with what you are talking about and discussing and feel like God is working heavily on me and so this video came when I needed to see it. Looking forward to taking this challenge, I’ve actually done it before. When I study for my GRE, to increase my vocabulary, I stopped, listening to music, and started listening to podcasts.
Been on the fence , lately with secular music. I felt the, "Yea...but does it matter" or just making excuses like I'm not doing that soooo, its not "bad". Even making excuses that this music is "chill" its not talking about killing or whatnot. Music is powerful and evokes something in all of us no matter what excuse we put on it. Trap music was the first I deleted but I still have to go through the rest, always making excuses to come back to it when I got time. I can't wait to listen to your playlist as I untether some songs from my life. Stay blessed!
Thank you thank you thank you for sharing your playlists!!!! There's a lot of people that speak about the secular music but doesn't give any different music to listen to N it's honestly been difficult to find good Christian music that is pleasing and glorifying to God!!! 🙏🏼🤍
I truly thoroughly enjoyed this video. Thank you so much. It is definitely not an easy process of walking away from a lot of things but it is so needed in our walk with Christ and to fully walk into the new identity given to us by God. Thank you so much definitely going to be checking out your playlist! 🥹❤️🫶🏼
absolutely love this message!! nothing but the absolute truth, currently listening to your playlist. you should definitely listen to these and add some. love theory by kirk franklin, Nobody-live half alive, Without you by Riders/ all of songs by Riders, dirty room steppin by swaizy, been up by swaizy, double by swaizy, tricky by red tip, swivel by swaizy, dont worry about it by Wande. You guys should listen to these! amazing artists.
OMG I am so grateful that I found your channel. The first video that came to my timeline was the video regarding God’s call for consistency. I too have been trying to be more intentional to listen to gospel music rather than many of my secular favorites, the entire vibe of my life Has changed to a dominant sense of positivity and spirituality. I am often hesitant to listen to people on social media lame to know the word of God, because discernment is a thing, but you, my dear, have the light and I am grateful. Hope your day is blessed
This is my first time listening to your podcast and girl I love that you did not hold back lol And it really convicted me too, I’m on a non-secular music journey too and recently I’ve just been giving the sounds on TikTok videos the yellow card but I should be giving them a red one because I get way too addicted to a 15 second video blasting SZA than I do worship 💀 and I’ve acknowledged it at the back of my head but also giving them the benefit of the doubt like ‘I can’t really control what sounds they put on their videos..’ but I know damn well I need to delete that app bcs I’m too addicted
Hello Aliyah, through the power of the Holy Spirit you have been producing great teachings that definitely edify if you just listen. No condemnation but if you feel convicted, take these steps and you can be free in serving the Lord, and "...live in this world, yet not be conformed to it". Thank you for opening my eyes to some things I didn't even consider. But most importantly, I thank God for allowing your teachings to enter my ear gate and render results that God would be pleased with as I grow in my discipleship in the Lord. God bless you Aliyah. To God be all the glory, honor, and praise that belongs to Him.
This has so many golden nuggets of revelation and life application 🔥 thank you for sharing the pure food of The Word and the playlist ❤ God bless Favor and anoint you more and more - greater grace peace and the love of Your Heavenly Father 💜
Congratulations on breaking 80k to my fav sista in Christ keep doing the Lords work. It’s inspiring seeing more and more young people in Christ! 🫶🏾 and I would love hearing about your journey to being a teacher and phd student I want to go to grad school and really considered being a teacher before then.
You literally said dont smoke cigarettes or weed and thats the exact things im trying to quit and this video was the first video popped up when i opened up my youtube and refreshed it wow praise God please keep me in your prayers im quitting cold turkey cigs and weed tomorrow todays it i gotta stop in Jesus name ☝🏻💥🙌🏻🙌🏻🙌🏻🙌🏻🙌🏻🙏🙏🙏🙏🙏
I am currently going through the same testimony. Let me say this anytime is possible by the will of God let go and give it to him. Truly set tune aside for him praise him and he will deliver you. He has delivered me to ur has been a whole week of not smoking cigarettes and god has blessed me tremendously in being obedient. Praise the lord for you are not alone and I am praying for you
@@OilOfJoy12 it’s hard but I try to pray and remember scripture also do things that are good for you things that you like most importantly re direct your thoughts
@@OilOfJoy12 Father, I come to You in the Name of Jesus, my Saviour and I thank You that He died to pay the price for my sins and to set me free from the power of sin and death. Lord, I particularly come to You today to seek Your face on this habit of smoking, a long-time habit that I have found so difficult to break. Lord, I know that I am not condemned because of my smoking, nevertheless it is a habit that I truly want to break and have come to You to pray that You would give me Your grace and strength to help in this time of my need. Lord, Your Word says that I can do all things through Christ Who gives me the strength, and I pray that You would indeed give me the strength to completely stop smoking and also to remove the desire that I have to light up. Lord, I know that my body is a temple of the Holy Spirit and do not want this habit to be a master over my body and my will, but rather I want You alone to have first place in my life and within my body. Give me the grace I pray, to enable me to stop this habit completely, and to have the desire to smoke eliminated from me. I will give You all the praise and glory, in Jesus' name, Amen Source: prayer.knowing-jesus.com/Prayers-for-Quitting-Smoking
I enjoyed this so much! God has been working on me with this and I’m so glad that you are allowing him to speak through you. The playlist links are dope as well! God Bless You Aaliyah 🙏🏾💖
Hey friend!! Just found your channel and subscribed immediately. This video spoke to me it was like watching myself talk. Love your spirit and content, you’re my now pretend online friend and sister in Christ!
I had a thought th other day, we know how powerful word is because literally all we know today was created by it but if you think about it deeper, sound itself is outside of creation. It existed before anything and was used to create all that we see. So how much more does what we choose to listen to create in our lives?
I appreciate you making these videos. God is using you for His good . Thank you for spreading God’s word. All glory to God. These videos have been a blessing and thank you for linking your Spotify playlist❤️. New worship songs I haven’t heard before.
girl i felt like you were screaming at me during this video but in a good way lol everything that you mentioned ive been struggling with letting go. like how did you know i've been watching baddies east?! lol but ill continue to try to watch what i listen to & the content i consume. thank you for this video
Girl I need new videos EVERYDAY 😂 i can’t wait for it to get to that point. I’m watching old ones cause I like the way you break things down. Keep up the good work! God bless you!
I’m so glad i found your page! Keep posting and speaking and teaching and preaching sis! You inspire me to show up and lean into where God is calling me and i’m so proud of you! Be encouraged ❤❤
Thank you for your videos, this one helped a lot. I am in my luke warm era right now trying to find godly things to replace with my worldly, this vid is a great start for me❤
I don’t usually comment on videos, but I had to for this one. This was your best video yet. Absolutely nailed what you’re talking about scripture. It’s easy for people to be open to these teachings when they feel convicted. Thank you for the wisdom.
Thank you for all the time you dedicated to produce this video plus leaving gold nuggets of scripture references and music links in the description box! God bless you!
Yeah tbh, it was not easy letting go of listening to secular music, especially old Drake, but it’s honestly worth it letting go of worldly things, connecting more with God through changes like that brings so much more peace and a warmth feeling of comfort!
Hey so I clicked your links and it sent me to a completely different account that’s definitely not you😅 if you can please fix the links! I’m excited to get to see the music you mentioned cuz I’ve recently been listening to some Christian music but I only have a few and I wanna span out so seeing your video was a blessing! Thank you! Also maybe you could touch on things to watch that isn’t jus the chosen lol as I’ve been searching for that as well cuz I like to watch shows like the office or cartoons to kinda have wind down time but I would like something that is more about God but not a sermon if that makes sense but thank you!🫶🏼🫶🏼

There are some faith based movies from non popular directors that are good. Avoid mainstream ‘faith based movies’. As long as the message doesn’t contradict the word of God, then you’re all good.
I really love the suggestion for the more independent Godly media. I am still trying to find things like TV shows and movies to watch, I am mostly watching faith based podcasts and sermons right now but as soon as I find some good ones I'll share!
“People perish, because of lack of knowledge” girl, the Holy Spirit is speaking through you !!!!!!

I feel you on this. I’ve cut out my favourite artists. I loved NBA Youngboy music but his songs are demonic foreal
@@rpc3243 yes! If you really listen the lyrics majority are really demonic forreal. Letting go of music was the hardest for me. But they speak garbage & rap opposite of what God’s Word says.
@@rpc3243mannn im so glad someone else understands this
Mannn I just deleted zeus 😂😂 but everything you saying on point! May God help us through this
Yeaaa if we are around negativity we will consume it

the creaking noise was hilarious
R&B gospel my fave
Amen I agree I don't even feel right watching dating shows anymore or crime TV.
‘My bullets get you fast like a Bugatti’
“you don’t even own a gun.” I’m screaminggg

Hello Aliyah, through the power of the Holy Spirit you have been producing great teachings that definitely edify if you just listen. No condemnation but if you feel convicted, take these steps and you can be free in serving the Lord, and "...live in this world, yet not be conformed to it". Thank you for opening my eyes to some things I didn't even consider. But most importantly, I thank God for allowing your teachings to enter my ear gate and render results that God would be pleased with as I grow in my discipleship in the Lord. God bless you Aliyah. To God be all the glory, honor, and praise that belongs to Him.
We missed you but prayed 4 you.

You are speaking facts . Really had to sit down and evaluate is this Glorifying God .
You literally said dont smoke cigarettes or weed and thats the exact things im trying to quit and this video was the first video popped up when i opened up my youtube and refreshed it wow praise God please keep me in your prayers im quitting cold turkey cigs and weed tomorrow todays it i gotta stop in Jesus name ☝🏻💥🙌🏻🙌🏻🙌🏻🙌🏻🙌🏻🙏🙏🙏🙏🙏
I am currently going through the same testimony. Let me say this anytime is possible by the will of God let go and give it to him. Truly set tune aside for him praise him and he will deliver you. He has delivered me to ur has been a whole week of not smoking cigarettes and god has blessed me tremendously in being obedient. Praise the lord for you are not alone and I am praying for you
@@ParrisZ wow praise God what hope thank you for sharing in Jesus name praise God
@@ParrisZ how do you handle cravings ?
@@OilOfJoy12 it’s hard but I try to pray and remember scripture also do things that are good for you things that you like most importantly re direct your thoughts
@@OilOfJoy12 Father, I come to You in the Name of Jesus, my Saviour and I thank You that He died to pay the price for my sins and to set me free from the power of sin and death. Lord, I particularly come to You today to seek Your face on this habit of smoking, a long-time habit that I have found so difficult to break.
Lord, I know that I am not condemned because of my smoking, nevertheless it is a habit that I truly want to break and have come to You to pray that You would give me Your grace and strength to help in this time of my need.
Lord, Your Word says that I can do all things through Christ Who gives me the strength, and I pray that You would indeed give me the strength to completely stop smoking and also to remove the desire that I have to light up. Lord, I know that my body is a temple of the Holy Spirit and do not want this habit to be a master over my body and my will, but rather I want You alone to have first place in my life and within my body.
Give me the grace I pray, to enable me to stop this habit completely, and to have the desire to smoke eliminated from me. I will give You all the praise and glory, in Jesus' name,
Amen

Man! This is really really good ma’am! Directly to the point and extremely accurate!
Omg I love your videos!! Which camera do you use ?
Hey friend!! Just found your channel and subscribed immediately. This video spoke to me it was like watching myself talk. Love your spirit and content, you’re my now pretend online friend and sister in Christ!
Needed that verse!! Thanks so much for this wonderful sermon!!! ❤️❤️
the secret place 👋🏽💙🌟
I had a thought th other day, we know how powerful word is because literally all we know today was created by it but if you think about it deeper, sound itself is outside of creation. It existed before anything and was used to create all that we see. So how much more does what we choose to listen to create in our lives?
Soo good!! Thank you so much for sharing and all the encouragement to guard or ears and eyes! ❤❤
I appreciate you making these videos. God is using you for His good . Thank you for spreading God’s word. All glory to God. These videos have been a blessing and thank you for linking your Spotify playlist❤️. New worship songs I haven’t heard before.
girl i felt like you were screaming at me during this video but in a good way lol everything that you mentioned ive been struggling with letting go. like how did you know i've been watching baddies east?! lol but ill continue to try to watch what i listen to & the content i consume. thank you for this video
Amen ❤
Girl I need new videos EVERYDAY 😂 i can’t wait for it to get to that point. I’m watching old ones cause I like the way you break things down. Keep up the good work! God bless you!
I’m so glad i found your page! Keep posting and speaking and teaching and preaching sis! You inspire me to show up and lean into where God is calling me and i’m so proud of you! Be encouraged ❤❤
i love these gang i look forward to listening at work
Love this video ❤ so informative and straight facts, I love the way you explain stuff and back it up with the word
Thank you for your videos, this one helped a lot. I am in my luke warm era right now trying to find godly things to replace with my worldly, this vid is a great start for me❤
I don’t usually comment on videos, but I had to for this one. This was your best video yet. Absolutely nailed what you’re talking about scripture. It’s easy for people to be open to these teachings when they feel convicted. Thank you for the wisdom.
Thank you for all the time you dedicated to produce this video plus leaving gold nuggets of scripture references and music links in the description box! God bless you!
❤
Wow, this was great and full of wisdom! Thanks for sharing your playlists! I've been searching for more Christian rap to listen to at the gym.
Your vids always speaking to me the Title be right on the point 🎯
This was so good, so true!!!! Thanks Sis 🙏🏽❤️
I love you girl thank you so much 💗
That’s was beautiful can you talk about you TikTok leave I know you mentioned somewhere that you don’t have it anymore
Thank you so much for the playlistss Aliyuh
Love the video (hard truths and all). Appreciate the playlists! I downloaded Spotify today for this very purpose, so your playlists will be my first ❤
The lord is guiding me to all the messages I need 🩷 spot on!
Your nuanced way of talking about the topic is reflected in your content delivery ❤
Thank You !
Thank you🔥
Whoa.. this is deep bc I use to listen to Drake Jcole heavy and I really defend drake take care like oh its not that bad .. smh but I’m struggling
Yeah tbh, it was not easy letting go of listening to secular music, especially old Drake, but it’s honestly worth it letting go of worldly things, connecting more with God through changes like that brings so much more peace and a warmth feeling of comfort!
How do you feel about listening to secular music/ shows that don’t mention sin? Songs and movies that are neutral?
What shows/movies do you watch now?
What bible do you use? I didn’t see the timbrels and pipes in my NIV version.
i use the NKJV! 😊

Hey so I clicked your links and it sent me to a completely different account that’s definitely not you😅 if you can please fix the links! I’m excited to get to see the music you mentioned cuz I’ve recently been listening to some Christian music but I only have a few and I wanna span out so seeing your video was a blessing! Thank you! Also maybe you could touch on things to watch that isn’t jus the chosen lol as I’ve been searching for that as well cuz I like to watch shows like the office or cartoons to kinda have wind down time but I would like something that is more about God but not a sermon if that makes sense but thank you!🫶🏼🫶🏼

you are tooooo funny! speaking nothing but truth tho!!!
Are you on spotify
What shows y’all be watching?
There are some faith based movies from non popular directors that are good. Avoid mainstream ‘faith based movies’. As long as the message doesn’t contradict the word of God, then you’re all good.
I really love the suggestion for the more independent Godly media. I am still trying to find things like TV shows and movies to watch, I am mostly watching faith based podcasts and sermons right now but as soon as I find some good ones I'll share!
giiiirrrllllll the devil kept trynna get me to turn this off and i see why you 8 this video
Thank you for passing the Aux!🫡 I’ve cute out secular music as well so this was so on time, I’m excited to listen to the playlists(:
