I am retaining I like to think the best way to prevent from relapsing is just think about how God is literally looking at you 24/7 and how you should respect him by not sinning
thats so true. Once you realize that God is always looking at you it changes your entire perspective. For example, if you are about to fap or feel tempted, just think about Jesus looking at you doing that and being dissapointed.
Exactly bro, I been on semen retention for awhile and things are going well and been examined myself more frequently and asking God for help to resist temptations@@abcdefga-dy1rh
As someone who was addicted for 8 years stuck in the constant battle and cycle of falling, just want to say that trying harder to please God and not sin isn’t what saved me. I think a lot of us have great hearts and motivations and believe I even did, but it will always be a battle and struggle with that mindset. What transformed my life was seeing me how God saw me. I always identified myself as being a sinner even though I was saved and has a relationship with Jesus. 3 years ago I had an encounter with God where the reality of who he is and who he’s made me to be so hit my heart that porn just completely broke off my life. It’s been 3 years and it’s not even a remote struggle or challenge anymore. If you get alone with God and start viewing yourself as holy, blameless and above reproach in his sight because of the blood of Jesus, things will change and you won’t even have to bite your lip trying harder to not sin. When you wake up and know that God loves you not because of your own efforts but simply because Jesus died for you, it will change your life. You don’t do something to be Gods son. You are a son, and when that hits your heart, living righteously will be a byproduct.
Please pray that I get a revelation just like this. I’ve never once experienced the actual love of God in my life and struggle badly with porn and depression and have been a Christian for 15 years. I just want to know that the love of God is something that’s really real and more than just words on a page. I’ve wanted so badly for years to have an encounter with the love and Grace of Jesus and be changed so badly. Please pray that I have that encounter and revelation
@prabhukalyanmohapatra9689 Prayer is essential, communion and union with God. Ask God to change you into the image of Christ and be of one will with God. Renew your mind in the scriptures, view the world through a biblical lense, and accept the reality of the supernatural world. Don't be enslaved to the beauty of a woman because what she really is in essence is her soul. The devil wants to keep you under the illusion of the corporeal world.
This message has perfect timing. I Relapsed yesterday and today I feel lethargic, got a headache, feel depressed, no energy, didn't sleep well.....the struggle is real brothers. Pray for one another.....
iron sharpens iron, don't give up 💪🏼 YOU ARE WONDERFULLY FEARFULLY made! devil fears saint-man, BE THAT MAN! the man satan rage from, and satan can't do anything about it 🔥 JESUS OUR PILOT and CAPTAIN! Obey Christ, rebel anti-Christ
Once you experience the time in retention, you will know what power is. Going back feels like a drained battery. An empty tank. On tranquilizers. Devoid of life. This man hits it spot on.
The timing of this video couldn't be more perfect. I unfortunately relapsed yesterday after over 2 weeks of being clean. I was so disappointed and discouraged cause I genuinely believed it was the last time I would ever do it. This video really spoke to me to not get discouraged and to keep fighting for Christ.
Hey guys, I'm a geneticist. I've been on this journey since 2016 and thanks to the Lord gained ton of knowledge on this topic through experience, studies, discipline and experimentation. I've been more than 6 months retaining and not relapsing even through dreams. If anyone is suffering with Lust and don't know how to overcome it. First you need to understand you have to set up systems in places to fight your flesh and resist. Second you have to be a MAN and LET GO of what you need let go. Third you need START doing what you HAVE TO DO and not procrastinate anymore. An idle mind or idle state makes you weak and you are an easy target to the Devil. Also INTERMITTENT FASTING is a MUST + Worship music at least 2 times a day so your subconscious is resonating with the Lord. I have set up systems in place both in iOS/Mac/Android/Windows to the point of where accessing to any kind of lustful content or p0rn is simply not possible. Also your entire house is protected once your set this up, so any device that connects will not be able to access this kind of content. So anyone interested feel free to comment down below. You can become a true WARRIOR in Christ if you are willing to.
When you said 'I genuinely believed it was the last time I would ever do it' that is where we go wrong. We don't do it in our own strength. Ask the Holy Spirit to help.
@@AmirlovesJesus You receive the Holy Spirit when you are born again. Thus it is just a matter of asking the Holy Spirit to help you with the spirit of lust or what you want to overcome. Confessing the Word out loud daily will also help to renew your mind. Most peoples mind has been programmed to lust since birth, if they are not in the Word, how can they expect to overcome it?
Sin is difficult, but all things are possible through Christ who strengthens me. We must continually pray each day, we must deny ourselves. God is forgiving.
Yes!!! I love it!! I’m not a man but I’m so encouraged to see a strong man teaching this to other men. I’ve always wondered why I felt so strongly about stuff like this. Not watching porn, masterbating, lust, just gratifying the flesh in general etc. And then looking around and hearing/seeing all these men claim Christ and still doing all those things and making excuses for it. We NEED more strong, truly dedicated, picking up our cross daily men. We already have victory. God has given us everything we need! Also I wanted to throw out from a ladies perspective it has caused so much hurt, confusion, and heartache being a woman who has been mostly seen and treated as if I’m an object pretty much the majority of my life. Attraction is a God given gift and the world (sin) has completely perverted it. Being a woman who takes care of herself, and works hard, constantly being sexualized or treated as if my only value is my face or body.. it hurts. And we woman need a man who is strong, and not lead by his flesh, to protect us from the bad men out there. To be different. To honor us like Jesus honored the church. It would be super cool if you made a video on the effects it has on woman too idk how you feel about that but wanted to throw the idea out there. God bless you David!
Ecclesiastes 7:28-29 -(NLT) 28 Though I have searched repeatedly, I have not found what I was looking for. Only one out of a thousand men is virtuous, but not one woman! 29 But I did find this: God created people to be virtuous, but they have each turned to follow their own downward path.” Try again. It seems like men are more upright than women according to the Bible. We always blame men cheating on their wife, but we overlook the whole picture which includes a "woman" who seduced the man to cheat. BOTH ARE ACCOUNTABLE. We judge men being addicted to porn but overlook the fact that 95% of top famous pornstars are females. (Women are seducers) OnlyFans creators are mostly women. There's a recent statistics which claims that OF market value is Billions more than the whole Nba players salary. Women are seducers, but both male female accountable Have you heard of the term "girl talk"? That's when girls gather around and talk about some of the nastiest vulgar topics (mostly sexual) and feel good about themselves Highest infidelity rates are nurses. Guest what? Most nurses are women☕☕ Observe how women hate other women in your family members, and they do that in subtle way. Meanwhile, you seldom see men hating each other. If they do, they confront directly, and not play these manipulation games and tactics. Women are good at creating unnecessary chaos. That why they coined the term "Karen" everytime there's an annoying woman. There's no "george" on the counterpart. But there's "Jack" of all trades. That's when a man specializes in many things like plumbing, changing tires, mowing lawns, building roads and buildings... Solomon says MEN ARE MORE UPRIGHT THAN WOMEN. Many Women appears to be cute and harmless because they are subtle, but even when caught doing bad, they don't get punished because they manipulate, don't take accountability on it, or put tantrums to avoid punishment. Not all but many.
You can use your hands for" that" yes , but also to steal , to hurt, to put others down by pointing the finger , to write wrong things , to also stear you in the wrong direction, God Is infinite, we have to abandon all, Thankyou Friend ✨️
I can't tell you ENOUGH how spot on you are. Satan has been trying very hard to get me to do it. I was an everyday-er, 3 to 4 times. I was reawakened by the LORD. I used to want to stop in the past, not for Jesus (forgive me) but because of a noticeable difference in my abilities. When I'd retain for a week or even 3 days, I'd be (for lack of a better word) stronger, more in tune, my problems gone... So it would seem. The only way I've been able to combat this now, for almost a month. Is by the power of Jesus Christ. The last time I relapsed, I'd gone 3 weeks. Mind you, I was an everyday-er. 3 or 4 times a day. Thank you Jesus.
Mannn. Preachhh🔥relapsing from semen retention is exactly how you described it. Litterly makes you feel numb, and blinds you to so many of Gods work in our life’s. God bless brother, gotta stay sober and vigilant 🙏
This makes me feel comforted bc I was 2 months strong and relapsed. Glad to know I’m not alone, one things for sure is we’re not gonna stay down we’re gonna keep on gettin back up! And denyin ourselves! Preciate this brother🙏
This is so true. Semen retention is incredibly powerful. Just don't ever think you are beyond certain sins. We always have to be vigilant when it comes to sin, even those we feel confident that we have overcome, while reminding ourselves in the face of temptation that His Spirit has given us power over the evil one.
David I could tell how hard it was for you, you spoke very articulate. Ive been watching the main channel for awhile. Keep glorifying God and like you said doing society a service. Spread the word!
Finally, a real Warrior believer who is masculine! Been feeling pretty much by myself for years and years wondering where in the heck are the actual true believers who actually read and follow scripture are!
You’re doing good . He is working in you, and it’s good for everyone to see the process . I told my hubby lovingly about the term Mother Earth the other day . Let’s say we are here in his beautiful creation . God bless you all
Semen retention is the best thing ever. I gave in to corn and fell back hard for 3 months. Then even when living in sin I just stopped. I hated how I felt and I saw how people would treat me and is night and day. What’s tough is when the woman attractive increases but that’s why we gotta pray without ceasing that ye enter not into temptation.
David you’re such a joy to be around brother. Your messages are so fitting and your personality is fun to feel through the screen. Made me laugh when that guy came in
2:30 I love how honest you are with your relapse sharing with the world because most people would keep that out and lie. Yesterday I was listening to that verse about plucking your eye out and throwing it in the fire is better than your whole body. That can go with lying. If you would’ve deceived us that sin still exists why filling your body with the lying spirit so I salute you. I can relate because one of my biggest problem was leaving out the whole truth but your actions have inspired me to be more honest with myself and others. Thank you.
Well said and well spoken brother. Just wanna share that 4 weeks ago jesus saved my life from heavily marajuana and porn addiction and i only wann aserve christ brother. I 100% agree as followers of christ that we need to be sober vigilant and actually live what we preach, although it doesnt't give us salvation, we should still abstain from our fleshly desires point blank period because its mockery towards the lord our the most high jesus christ and spread the word ofcourse. god bless you brother jesus loves you
Fast an pray my brother an rebuke an. Break any generational curses , Hex curses , any sort of witchcraft , foundational spirits. Some of us don’t even know we have these kinda spirits still attached to our spirit. Due to our ancestors who most likely practiced witchcraft an passed it down to our bloodline. I’m a pray warrior the lord revealed it to me. Last month so it has been to mission to pray for others. I will pray for you David Hammond that the lord will send you a wife. You have been doing the lord’s work for some time. I’ve been watching your content since 2020 when I first Learned about nofap. God bless brother may the lord multiply your blessings. Keep doing his work brother 💪💪👍🙏
I'm on this SR journey for the long haul, and I simply can't see myself relapsing. It's just not worth it. I retain to please God, and He gives me the strength to overcome the flesh every day.
Began my walk with God last year in the Fall. I have been sober since August of last year, and been on semen retention since December. “but your iniquities have made a separation between you and your God, and your sins have hidden his face from you so that he does not hear.” Isaiah 59:2 I feel like giving up sin and following God go hand in hand. I was addicted to drugs for 6 years and addicted to sex/masturbating for a long time as well. I was a slave to sin. But when I called out to God last year, and started to follow Him, he saved me from the bondage that I was in. He set me free. Now I owe my life to Him. ““Ask, and it will be given to you; seek, and you will find; knock, and it will be opened to you.” Matthew 7:7
You’re saved (going to heaven) when you believed in Jesus (TRUST IN HIM ALONE) not by living your life to God. Salvation is a free gift not a reward. Once saved always saved so don’t trust in your works.
🙌🙌 I know exactly what you mean brother. I started semen retention about a year ago and I've relapse very few times. But I also felt like hollow empty. God bless brother. 🙌🙌
I'm on Retention until marriage. I just focus on the Love of Christ and that has been enough. You will level up quickly on SR once you live according to his word and purpose. Women will come to you along with wealth because you have been a living sacrifice so you will be rewarded. 🙏😎💯
My brother in Christ crazy how I just broke mine for the first time in months and this is the first video I see on my feed. God bless you. “Then He said to them all, “If anyone desires to come after Me, let him DENY HIMSELF, and take up his cross daily, and follow Me.” Luke 9:23 “For a righteous man may fall seven times And rise again, But the wicked shall fall by calamity.” Proverbs 24:16 I can make a good excuse as well but at the end of the day it is of the enemy and a violation of the temple of the Holy Spirit. ❤️🩹✝️ Proud of you my brother and grateful the Holy Spirit lead you to post this 🙏 May His Shalmom be with you ❤️🔥✝️
Busting a nut and going through the process of semen retention is something I feel I ca directly compare to drinking alcohol and going theough the process of sobriety. Both give you a temporary and fleeting euphoric feeling and once its gone, you feel drained and numb, with the only thing to make you feel better is that same buzz. However, I speak from 9 months of sobriety that once you push past that first month (40 days) I promise it gets so much easier and feels so much more normal to not be doing these things. In the case of semen retention, you start to view the world the same way you once did as a child; the world just looks brighter. Even the Sun seems brighter because my perception has reverted back to what I woukd call "normal". To put it simply, I have gone from a Squidward to a Spongebob. 😅
I can see your pain, I have been married for 40 years. I have had 4 children. I have been a Christian for 30 years. I love you brother. I am 60 years old.
I stumbled onto your videos and have subscribed. This one in particular, I needed to hear it because I've fallen short to and it always leads to a horrible downward spiral that ends up in deep self loathing. I love your directness and forward attitude in your videos and personally, I believe they are amongst the most truest Christian videos on TH-cam. Keep it up! Thank you, brother!
Amen, bro! The closest we get to being creators ourselves is through sex. That’s why Satan wants to mess with God’s standards for sexuality and trying to corrupt something that’s meant to be pure.
Chase excellence not perfection, look at your situation and find something you can learn from it. Put it under your belt out of humility. Best way to overcome pride is giving God praise for your accomplishments, after all he gifts the Holy Spirit to over come trial and tribulation.
Is anyone else noticing how hard the devil is trying to make this puppy of a man loose his trail of thought, chipmunks, motorcycle guys, loud planes, now relentless crows !!! Bro must be really important.
Greetings brother i know what you mean i remember when i first started SR/NO FAP just thinking about having sex repulsed me i was so full of sympathy for men who are trapped we need to pray for ourselves and other men
Even though I knew it was wrong and it ruins us spiritually, mentally, physically and chemically I still sought it out. As a married christian man, it is shameful. But Im not giving in anymore the past couple months and will not ruin my marriage and walk with God.
Im on SR 130+ days, the battle with lust there but its like im trying to hard reset my brain. Its like im trying to go back to my old ways but i always tell myself that i have to deny myself and pick up my cross daily. Nice video it helped me reevaluate myself against satan the adversary.
Recently got radically set free from 🌽 and lust. I felt like I was at my lowest point and my mind had gone to dark places that made me feel like I was trapped in the lowest pit of death. (Psalm 18:4-6) But God did an incredible restorative work over me and has given me a burden to share my testimony and the love that Christ has for the Brothers that are struggling with lust. Going on what you were saying about sharing the Gospel, I have to admit that I am sometimes scared to evangelize and make disciples, so if there are any brothers in Christ who might have some tips or advice on how to overcome this and share the Gospel with strangers, please let me know and God bless!
Bro ive struggled with fap since 12 years old yes whole life feels like ive been on antidepressants but you got to get to the root of what causing the triggers most likely childhood trauma that jesus needs to heal through the holy spirit and alot of prayer and self reflection
Gracias, lo necesitaba. Llevo batallando con este problema desde que empecé mi proceso de cambio, la verdad si alguien puede orar por mi se lo agradecería mucho. La verdad vale la pena cumplir a Dios y obedecer, así que resistan hermanos en Jesús.
Thank you for the video and speaking the truth man. The only way I got out of sin was not trying to stop but just focusing on god and the closer I got to him, my heart and desires changed and I have been clean since 🙏
As a Christian man, follower of Jesus Christ, I struggle with this so much. I am ready to break the cycle of repenting and then falling again into temptation and fapping. I am also married legally but still struggle with this when I’m away from my wife. Pray for me brothers and sisters.
Confess the Word out loud daily and allow it to renew your mind. It will change how you think, feel and act. Also ask the Holy Spirit to help. After I asked the Holy Spirit for help, I realized I was then able to have control of where I was looking. This was very freeing!
I'm on a semen retention since May 19 2024 over 100 days I have one wete dreams around 95th day no regrets doing semen retention gain more focus energy and gained attraction
I’m struggling with this right now. I’ll be good for a few weeks &, then bam. Fall right back in. The worst part? I was on it for about a year at most. I’m striving to get back into it.
I’ve dated same girl for 5 years now, neither one of us want to get married. This day and age marriage is a death sentence to a man, my divorce cost me 330,000 dollars. I work my ranch do my best to live Christian life, not sure I need to be married to be a Christian.
I have fought this battle on so many different fronts and failed everyone of them. I've gone so deep I can't get out now. It's an addiction, attack, impulse, and so many more. There isn't anything I haven't tried. I've laid it out on God, I've tried gradual whining, lots of prayer, reading the Bible, self control, and so much more. I rather be fight drug addiction at this point. It so much easier to fight something external to yourself. Is there anyone out there who has anything new that can help someone like me?
Brother you are in spiritual bondage, fasting and praying will free you from that impulse. I myself felt like you and did a 2 day fast and Jesus freed me. Now everyday before I sleep I give all my struggles to Jesus and he keeps me going. Don’t think about the sin in your everyday life just focus on Jesus and loving him. Hope this helps brother you can do it!
I agree; it's a spiritual thing. HOWEVER, let's talk 'physical advice' - I think it's time to bring in the icy hot instead of the lotion. You've got to create a negative association, therefore you subconsciously want to avoid the harmful consequences.
Holy Spirit put me on SR automatically. I had a couple months in before I even knew much about semen retention. Now I'm around 6-7 months and I can relate when you say you couldn't imagine living like that again. I would be devastated if I relapsed. I'll have to tell my story sometime but I can confirm everything our Brother in Christ here is saying. 💯💪
Not trying to be inappropriate but have to say this title is so encouraging as a celibate women over 6 years and only seem to see men that want to do the opposite of this video. Thanks for staying true to Him I’m gonna bounce and give you all privacy here
Can't we just be called Jesus followers? Christian label makes it feel like religion instead of a relationship. Man your channel is very helpful. Thank you and thank you Jesus.
@Ancel316 for real bro even in the book of acts we called ourselves followers of the way or In Matthew disciples.All Christian’s means is followers of Christ but nowadays it’s just a label 😂 ppl link it to denominations or some pharasiees
I had a friend who called me every day and would boast about his private activity. I would tell him to stop. I finally quit talking to him. These men can't see anything wrong with what they say and do.
No it doesn't. Not even the Mark of the Beast in Revelation represents 666; it calculates to 666. There is nothing "evil" about drinking a sugar free Monster anymore than drinking a Red Bull or whatever energy drink you can think about.
This is a topic thats becoming popular lately. I've experienced a significant life change when i go prolonged periods of time without masturbation. Physically, and mentally there is a huge change.
I don't go to mosques, etc. to share the word of God. God gave me the talent and ability to tell stories, I'm trying to use that to share the Lord with others. Does that also work?

Also I wanted to throw out from a ladies perspective it has caused so much hurt, confusion, and heartache being a woman who has been mostly seen and treated as if I’m an object pretty much the majority of my life. Attraction is a God given gift and the world (sin) has completely perverted it. Being a woman who takes care of herself, and works hard, constantly being sexualized or treated as if my only value is my face or body.. it hurts. And we woman need a man who is strong, and not lead by his flesh, to protect us from the bad men out there. To be different. To honor us like Jesus honored the church. It would be super cool if you made a video on the effects it has on woman too idk how you feel about that but wanted to throw the idea out there. God bless you David!
Don’t forget in porn several ppl could be getting raped and they also show younger and younger which can lead to pedo stuff which is very bad
How do you think a man feels being treated as a walking wallet? That's why I quit dating
Too much talk on men's role, nothing on women's.
Modern christianity at its finest.
@@ww6739the whole Bible is full of what God wants women to do. And what the man's role is, and the women's role is.
Ecclesiastes 7:28-29 -(NLT)
28 Though I have searched repeatedly, I have not found what I was looking for. Only one out of a thousand men is virtuous, but not one woman! 29 But I did find this: God created people to be virtuous, but they have each turned to follow their own downward path.”
Try again. It seems like men are more upright than women according to the Bible.
We always blame men cheating on their wife, but we overlook the whole picture which includes a "woman" who seduced the man to cheat. BOTH ARE ACCOUNTABLE.
We judge men being addicted to porn but overlook the fact that 95% of top famous pornstars are females. (Women are seducers)
OnlyFans creators are mostly women. There's a recent statistics which claims that OF market value is Billions more than the whole Nba players salary. Women are seducers, but both male female accountable
Have you heard of the term "girl talk"? That's when girls gather around and talk about some of the nastiest vulgar topics (mostly sexual) and feel good about themselves
Highest infidelity rates are nurses. Guest what? Most nurses are women☕☕
Observe how women hate other women in your family members, and they do that in subtle way. Meanwhile, you seldom see men hating each other. If they do, they confront directly, and not play these manipulation games and tactics.
Women are good at creating unnecessary chaos. That why they coined the term "Karen" everytime there's an annoying woman. There's no "george" on the counterpart. But there's "Jack" of all trades. That's when a man specializes in many things like plumbing, changing tires, mowing lawns, building roads and buildings...
Solomon says MEN ARE MORE UPRIGHT THAN WOMEN. Many Women appears to be cute and harmless because they are subtle, but even when caught doing bad, they don't get punished because they manipulate, don't take accountability on it, or put tantrums to avoid punishment. Not all but many.
You can use your hands for" that" yes , but also to steal , to hurt, to put others down by pointing the finger , to write wrong things , to also stear you in the wrong direction, God Is infinite, we have to abandon all, Thankyou Friend ✨️
I can't tell you ENOUGH how spot on you are. Satan has been trying very hard to get me to do it.
I was an everyday-er, 3 to 4 times. I was reawakened by the LORD.
I used to want to stop in the past, not for Jesus (forgive me) but because of a noticeable difference in my abilities.
When I'd retain for a week or even 3 days, I'd be (for lack of a better word) stronger, more in tune, my problems gone... So it would seem.
The only way I've been able to combat this now, for almost a month. Is by the power of Jesus Christ.
The last time I relapsed, I'd gone 3 weeks. Mind you, I was an everyday-er. 3 or 4 times a day.
Thank you Jesus.
SR has been a blessing. My life has totally changed, and my energy, stamina and mental clarity got supercharged. Praise God!
Mannn. Preachhh🔥relapsing from semen retention is exactly how you described it. Litterly makes you feel numb, and blinds you to so many of Gods work in our life’s. God bless brother, gotta stay sober and vigilant 🙏
yeah thats why i plan on retaining for life
Don’t worry, David, my right hand, and right eye is currently nonexistent
This makes me feel comforted bc I was 2 months strong and relapsed. Glad to know I’m not alone, one things for sure is we’re not gonna stay down we’re gonna keep on gettin back up! And denyin ourselves! Preciate this brother🙏
Wow, you hit me hard. Best channel I found. Thank you God. My right hand and my eye 😮😂. God bless you brother
Men get prostate cancer, and semen retention is part of that particular cancer.
This is so true. Semen retention is incredibly powerful. Just don't ever think you are beyond certain sins. We always have to be vigilant when it comes to sin, even those we feel confident that we have overcome, while reminding ourselves in the face of temptation that His Spirit has given us power over the evil one.
I agree with you Mr. David Hammond
David I could tell how hard it was for you, you spoke very articulate. Ive been watching the main channel for awhile. Keep glorifying God and like you said doing society a service. Spread the word!
Semen retention for life mann full monk mode for Christ
amen
Finally, a real Warrior believer who is masculine! Been feeling pretty much by myself for years and years wondering where in the heck are the actual true believers who actually read and follow scripture are!
You’re doing good . He is working in you, and it’s good for everyone to see the process . I told my hubby lovingly about the term Mother Earth the other day . Let’s say we are here in his beautiful creation . God bless you all
Semen retention is the best thing ever. I gave in to corn and fell back hard for 3 months. Then even when living in sin I just stopped. I hated how I felt and I saw how people would treat me and is night and day.
What’s tough is when the woman attractive increases but that’s why we gotta pray without ceasing that ye enter not into temptation.
David you’re such a joy to be around brother. Your messages are so fitting and your personality is fun to feel through the screen. Made me laugh when that guy came in
2:30 I love how honest you are with your relapse sharing with the world because most people would keep that out and lie. Yesterday I was listening to that verse about plucking your eye out and throwing it in the fire is better than your whole body. That can go with lying. If you would’ve deceived us that sin still exists why filling your body with the lying spirit so I salute you. I can relate because one of my biggest problem was leaving out the whole truth but your actions have inspired me to be more honest with myself and others. Thank you.
Well said and well spoken brother. Just wanna share that 4 weeks ago jesus saved my life from heavily marajuana and porn addiction and i only wann aserve christ brother. I 100% agree as followers of christ that we need to be sober vigilant and actually live what we preach, although it doesnt't give us salvation, we should still abstain from our fleshly desires point blank period because its mockery towards the lord our the most high jesus christ and spread the word ofcourse. god bless you brother jesus loves you
Fast an pray my brother an rebuke an. Break any generational curses , Hex curses , any sort of witchcraft , foundational spirits. Some of us don’t even know we have these kinda spirits still attached to our spirit. Due to our ancestors who most likely practiced witchcraft an passed it down to our bloodline. I’m a pray warrior the lord revealed it to me. Last month so it has been to mission to pray for others. I will pray for you David Hammond that the lord will send you a wife. You have been doing the lord’s work for some time. I’ve been watching your content since 2020 when I first Learned about nofap. God bless brother may the lord multiply your blessings. Keep doing his work brother 💪💪👍🙏
I'm on this SR journey for the long haul, and I simply can't see myself relapsing. It's just not worth it. I retain to please God, and He gives me the strength to overcome the flesh every day.
I love how real you are man. Keep it up brotha 💪🏽
🙏🙏
Began my walk with God last year in the Fall. I have been sober since August of last year, and been on semen retention since December.
“but your iniquities have made a separation between you and your God, and your sins have hidden his face from you so that he does not hear.”
Isaiah 59:2
I feel like giving up sin and following God go hand in hand. I was addicted to drugs for 6 years and addicted to sex/masturbating for a long time as well. I was a slave to sin. But when I called out to God last year, and started to follow Him, he saved me from the bondage that I was in. He set me free. Now I owe my life to Him.
““Ask, and it will be given to you; seek, and you will find; knock, and it will be opened to you.”
Matthew 7:7
You’re saved (going to heaven) when you believed in Jesus (TRUST IN HIM ALONE) not by living your life to God. Salvation is a free gift not a reward. Once saved always saved so don’t trust in your works.
🙌🙌 I know exactly what you mean brother. I started semen retention about a year ago and I've relapse very few times. But I also felt like hollow empty. God bless brother. 🙌🙌
Love the content and I love how you show your imperfections and not try to show yourself any other way. Keep up the good work and may god bless you❤
Appreciate you 🙏
I'm on Retention until marriage. I just focus on the Love of Christ and that has been enough. You will level up quickly on SR once you live according to his word and purpose. Women will come to you along with wealth because you have been a living sacrifice so you will be rewarded. 🙏😎💯
My brother in Christ crazy how I just broke mine for the first time in months and this is the first video I see on my feed. God bless you.
“Then He said to them all, “If anyone desires to come after Me, let him DENY HIMSELF, and take up his cross daily, and follow Me.”
Luke 9:23
“For a righteous man may fall seven times And rise again, But the wicked shall fall by calamity.”
Proverbs 24:16
I can make a good excuse as well but at the end of the day it is of the enemy and a violation of the temple of the Holy Spirit. ❤️🩹✝️ Proud of you my brother and grateful the Holy Spirit lead you to post this 🙏 May His Shalmom be with you ❤️🔥✝️
PREACH BRO 💯‼️
Amen brotha on my sisters account but I had to comment lol Jesus Christ is on point today perfect timing ⏱️
You a real one I love your videos sometimes you make me cry man lol. Keep up the good work.
Busting a nut and going through the process of semen retention is something I feel I ca directly compare to drinking alcohol and going theough the process of sobriety. Both give you a temporary and fleeting euphoric feeling and once its gone, you feel drained and numb, with the only thing to make you feel better is that same buzz. However, I speak from 9 months of sobriety that once you push past that first month (40 days) I promise it gets so much easier and feels so much more normal to not be doing these things. In the case of semen retention, you start to view the world the same way you once did as a child; the world just looks brighter. Even the Sun seems brighter because my perception has reverted back to what I woukd call "normal". To put it simply, I have gone from a Squidward to a Spongebob. 😅
Lol, great comment
I can see your pain, I have been married for 40 years. I have had 4 children. I have been a Christian for 30 years. I love you brother. I am 60 years old.
I relapsed today after a few weeks this my start time praise god.
I stumbled onto your videos and have subscribed. This one in particular, I needed to hear it because I've fallen short to and it always leads to a horrible downward spiral that ends up in deep self loathing. I love your directness and forward attitude in your videos and personally, I believe they are amongst the most truest Christian videos on TH-cam. Keep it up! Thank you, brother!
Amen, bro! The closest we get to being creators ourselves is through sex. That’s why Satan wants to mess with God’s standards for sexuality and trying to corrupt something that’s meant to be pure.
Ephesians 4:11
2 years and 6 months now on SR. I gotta fiancée but in a way I don’t even care about getting married anymore. SR changes you COMPLETELY. ✊✊
Keeping bringing the punchy videos man. We (men in the West) need some tough love.
Awesome video
LISTEN to this man! guys spot on.
Yeah Mother Nature is a big no no brother. Nature is a creation and will pass away.
Already Beat Lust with help of Christ 😀 Christ Is King 👑👑👑
Chase excellence not perfection, look at your situation and find something you can learn from it. Put it under your belt out of humility. Best way to overcome pride is giving God praise for your accomplishments, after all he gifts the Holy Spirit to over come trial and tribulation.
Is anyone else noticing how hard the devil is trying to make this puppy of a man loose his trail of thought, chipmunks, motorcycle guys, loud planes, now relentless crows !!!
Bro must be really important.
Thanks brother for inspiring me
The truth cuts like a knife amen!
Facts! I'm nutting up and quoting scripture to people at work. SR is the way to go. 🔥 on!
Greetings brother i know what you mean i remember when i first started SR/NO FAP just thinking about having sex repulsed me i was so full of sympathy for men who are trapped we need to pray for ourselves and other men
Even though I knew it was wrong and it ruins us spiritually, mentally, physically and chemically I still sought it out. As a married christian man, it is shameful. But Im not giving in anymore the past couple months and will not ruin my marriage and walk with God.
The first step is the hardest… it’s everyday I need help
David, monster energy is evil. The name itself and the logo, in Hebrew, have a very specific meaning. Search it up.
He's also using semen retention which is new age. Needs to teach celibacy because that is a devotion of fleeing sexual immorality for God.
@@DifferentAngles-yi2hr Celibacy is semen retention, no sex, no masturbation and nothing all for the glory of the ALMIGHTY!
I did. It is bogus. Not connected to devil or evil. People said the same about Starbucks coffee..some goddess.
@@phillipsmith7759 It's because of the logo, it represents a pagan goddess that I forgot the name
@@BlackColt-y5h Not the same. Unless do you look at Christianity and Taoism as the same?
Im on SR 130+ days, the battle with lust there but its like im trying to hard reset my brain. Its like im trying to go back to my old ways but i always tell myself that i have to deny myself and pick up my cross daily. Nice video it helped me reevaluate myself against satan the adversary.
it’s takes 4 to 6 months to break a habit you almost there
Preach it brother 🔥💪🙌
Recently got radically set free from 🌽 and lust. I felt like I was at my lowest point and my mind had gone to dark places that made me feel like I was trapped in the lowest pit of death. (Psalm 18:4-6)
But God did an incredible restorative work over me and has given me a burden to share my testimony and the love that Christ has for the Brothers that are struggling with lust.
Going on what you were saying about sharing the Gospel, I have to admit that I am sometimes scared to evangelize and make disciples, so if there are any brothers in Christ who might have some tips or advice on how to overcome this and share the Gospel with strangers, please let me know and God bless!
Amen we must stay Resilient against Sin✝️⚔️
Bro ive struggled with fap since 12 years old yes whole life feels like ive been on antidepressants but you got to get to the root of what causing the triggers most likely childhood trauma that jesus needs to heal through the holy spirit and alot of prayer and self reflection
Gracias, lo necesitaba. Llevo batallando con este problema desde que empecé mi proceso de cambio, la verdad si alguien puede orar por mi se lo agradecería mucho. La verdad vale la pena cumplir a Dios y obedecer, así que resistan hermanos en Jesús.
It can be done, Jesus life of celibacy, Christ in believers, no reason we can't
Thank you for the video and speaking the truth man. The only way I got out of sin was not trying to stop but just focusing on god and the closer I got to him, my heart and desires changed and I have been clean since 🙏
Great video man. Really good word
That is right ❤good teaching ❤
the motor bike guy Haha 🤣
As a Christian man, follower of Jesus Christ, I struggle with this so much. I am ready to break the cycle of repenting and then falling again into temptation and fapping. I am also married legally but still struggle with this when I’m away from my wife. Pray for me brothers and sisters.
Confess the Word out loud daily and allow it to renew your mind. It will change how you think, feel and act. Also ask the Holy Spirit to help. After I asked the Holy Spirit for help, I realized I was then able to have control of where I was looking. This was very freeing!
I respect you and your insights🤙🏾
the less you do it the less you want it
I'm on a semen retention since May 19 2024 over 100 days I have one wete dreams around 95th day no regrets doing semen retention gain more focus energy and gained attraction
I’m struggling with this right now. I’ll be good for a few weeks &, then bam. Fall right back in. The worst part? I was on it for about a year at most. I’m striving to get back into it.
I’ve dated same girl for 5 years now, neither one of us want to get married. This day and age marriage is a death sentence to a man, my divorce cost me 330,000 dollars. I work my ranch do my best to live Christian life, not sure I need to be married to be a Christian.
Paul never married.

Micah 7:8
Do not gloat over me, my enemy! Though I have fallen, I will rise. Though I sit in darkness, the LORD will be my light.
I have fought this battle on so many different fronts and failed everyone of them. I've gone so deep I can't get out now. It's an addiction, attack, impulse, and so many more. There isn't anything I haven't tried. I've laid it out on God, I've tried gradual whining, lots of prayer, reading the Bible, self control, and so much more. I rather be fight drug addiction at this point. It so much easier to fight something external to yourself. Is there anyone out there who has anything new that can help someone like me?
Brother you are in spiritual bondage, fasting and praying will free you from that impulse. I myself felt like you and did a 2 day fast and Jesus freed me. Now everyday before I sleep I give all my struggles to Jesus and he keeps me going. Don’t think about the sin in your everyday life just focus on Jesus and loving him. Hope this helps brother you can do it!
I agree; it's a spiritual thing. HOWEVER, let's talk 'physical advice' - I think it's time to bring in the icy hot instead of the lotion. You've got to create a negative association, therefore you subconsciously want to avoid the harmful consequences.
Holy Spirit put me on SR automatically. I had a couple months in before I even knew much about semen retention. Now I'm around 6-7 months and I can relate when you say you couldn't imagine living like that again. I would be devastated if I relapsed. I'll have to tell my story sometime but I can confirm everything our Brother in Christ here is saying. 💯💪
Not trying to be inappropriate but have to say this title is so encouraging as a celibate women over 6 years and only seem to see men that want to do the opposite of this video. Thanks for staying true to Him I’m gonna bounce and give you all privacy here
This video was a blessing. Stay safe brother I appreciate what you’re doing ✊🏽
That guy who walked behind you sensed another Alpha in the area. The motorcycle guys were about ready to recruit you to their club.
Can't we just be called Jesus followers? Christian label makes it feel like religion instead of a relationship. Man your channel is very helpful. Thank you and thank you Jesus.
amen
@Ancel316 for real bro even in the book of acts we called ourselves followers of the way or In Matthew disciples.All Christian’s means is followers of Christ but nowadays it’s just a label 😂 ppl link it to denominations or some pharasiees
10 years and counting for me, never felt better
Wash your mind in the word of God . Be holy for i am holy God commands this . To die is gain .
The only way is to fall and get back up with grace from Jesus
I had a friend who called me every day and would boast about his private activity. I would tell him to stop. I finally quit talking to him. These men can't see anything wrong with what they say and do.
Been on it for a month God has been working in me and I look back at those times and sin just disgusts me man
David! No more Monster energy drinks! The claw logo represents 666
No it doesn't. Not even the Mark of the Beast in Revelation represents 666; it calculates to 666. There is nothing "evil" about drinking a sugar free Monster anymore than drinking a Red Bull or whatever energy drink you can think about.
once you're graced by the Lord it doesn't even enter your mind
This is a topic thats becoming popular lately.
I've experienced a significant life change when i go prolonged periods of time without masturbation.
Physically, and mentally there is a huge change.
I don't go to mosques, etc. to share the word of God. God gave me the talent and ability to tell stories, I'm trying to use that to share the Lord with others. Does that also work?
