Nothing beats reading the Bible and meditating on Gods word and asking Holy Spirit to guide us in wisdom and understanding of God's word. As a busy housewife I love watching christian utube whilst doing house chores. I am a bit hooked on listening to end times and Prophecy watchers. Many other channels like Jonathan Chan, Perry Stone, DLM christian lifestyle, Daystar has lots of great guests on programs, Jan Markell, these a just a few I listen to daily. May God bless you and show you which channel would be most beneficial to you
Life without limbs ministry and Christine Caine,helps me too.though may not help you.i tend to look things up as God puts it on my heart.God Bless you.
I don’t like Christian videos with titles like “3 Signs that God is about to bless you” or “3 signs that God is about to bring you a spouse” stuff like that. It’s just clickbait and I don’t take them seriously. I blocked one already.
@@1Corinthians15.1-4 Yes for reeaal. I can’t stand that either. There’s no replacement for reading the word and praying. More time needs to be spent doing those rather than listening to videos. Even sermons and testimonies.
A lot of those clickbait videos seem AI generated. I am tired of them, all narrated by robo-voice with random scenes. Somebody is pumping these out by the boatload and making coin. It seems like 80% of religious videos are these types.
The problem with their knowledge is it isn't true. Government mandated education is a real problem since they don't teach how government itself works for instance and refuse any historical references that go against their current narratives.
It's strange, even when not making notes, there is something about the physical Bible I find so much better than reading on the phone. I'll read anything else on a device, no problem.❤️
@@TSeeker1the best you can do is, turn of all electronics, and dedicate your full time with God and reading the Bible with no distractions.

Thank you, I feel the same way. So much chaff out there. "Finally, brethren, whatever things are true, whatever things are noble, whatever things are just, whatever things are pure, whatever things are lovely, whatever things are of good report, if there is any virtue and if there is anything praiseworthy-meditate on these things".
I totally agree. Christian content should NOT leave us feeling empty, anxious, full of fear… etc. so many out there. I try to have Bible study and Focus on the Word of God on my channel, however, that doesn’t get Subs or TH-cam’s algorithm moving. But that’s ok. I’m not here to be popular. I’m here to point to Jesus and His amazing Word. Great video! Thanks for pointing this out and making us not feel alone. God Bless you! Shalom! -Christa
What I do find that lifts my spirits on TH-cam is Christian testimonies. I love typing in “new age to Jesus” or broken and hurting to Jesus” etc. some of my favorite testimonies are Micah Wilder, Steven Bancarz, Jeff Morgan. I really love Jeff’s new channel “So Be It”. Ray Comfort “Living Waters”. One for Israel. That’s a great channel. Especially the interviews Jews find Jesus. Or Nabeel Qureshi - his story is incredible, all the way to his death bed. Incredible
We can overwhelm ourselves with " input ". Sometimes we must disconnect from noise. We need...NEED quiet time alone in scripture and prayer. Hope you're having a good week.
I'm chasing that quiet as I get older the noise been watching monk documentary some grt nuggets to learn from them .not into there doctrine but some nuggets of quiet . Prayer . Reading. Meditating. Switching TV of phone of never was addicted to TV but am yt not good got too many books to read never remember what we watch on yt half time there all coming out this is right this wrong let's find God our self back to basics for a while. Quiet bliss heaven
Yes I agree. i am 70 years old and have been on the streets for the last 6 months sharing the Gospel. 3,250 people have encountered God . We are out 6 days a week praying with people.
What a confirmation... I have been thinking about this too. And wanting to read books from Godly men & women from years gone by as they have depth and scriptural truth ❤
@@TBone14159On your initial feed of recommended videos, if you click on the 3 dots underneath (beside?) the video, there is an option not to be shown the channel again. I'm not sure if there is another way. The three dots don't show that option if they are from a search that you do on TH-cam. Hope this helps.
@@TBone14159 I tried to reply earlier, but just realized it wasn’t posted for some reason. You can ask to not be recommended videos from a channel by clicking on the three dots underneath (beside?) a video on your home feed. If you do a search, the three dots on the list of videos doesn’t have this option. Not sure if there’s another way to do it. Hope this helps.
I didn't know I could block channels...thank you. A lot of these so-called Christian channels are fear based and are instilling fear and terror about the future. You make a good point.
I get a lot out of such teachers as Dr Chuck Missler, Dr Michael Heiser and Dr Andy Woods. Lets not forget Pastor JD Farag and his weekly prophecy updates. Much love young brother.
Chuck Missler was so awesome. It's a shame he's no longer with us but at least he left so much content to study in the form of videos, audio recordings and books.
All great!!! Jd has been my favorite pastor for 8 yrs. He's helped me learn about God's word....he speaks truth, but I come away from his message uplifted, but his content isn't for the people, who want a feel good message. It's for people, who want to be fed the truth,,,,the people who have the eyes to see, and ears to hear❤
Thank you for this. This is absolutely confirmation, I don't think I've ever seen any of your videos before, so this popping up first thing surprised me. I've been struggling with this and social media, because I am bored often due to unemployment from disabilities. It's hard to find a balance when you don't work but I will try harder to be intentional with my time with Him. Thank you!!
I agree with you, but I got a message from watching this video. "if we allow once our prayer to be crowded out". That random selection was the message I needed to hear. I need to be more focused, calm and prepared without distractions when I pray. Coincidence? I think not. Thank you and God bless.
I've been listening to some old time preachers as well, things that stood too me were; "A repentant heart - George Whitfield sermon" "Counterfeit Christianity - J C Ryle sermon" "John Bumyan's vision of heaven and hell" (1h 40m) But the most important thing is listening to that still small voice calling you to prayer, because it took me a while to figure out that is the Holy Spirit, and we can have fellowship with Him, and He will guide you in all truth, when we are focused on Jesus, God bless you guys
Charles Stanley's son is a heretic and Charles Stanley is also dangerous. Saying if you take mark of the beast or are a practicing homosexual you can have eternal life because of eternal security. I don't remember the exact details, but be careful of wolves in sheeps clothing.
I have only just recently found your channels and what stood out to me how different you are to many other Christian channels. A breeze of fresh air that points to Jesus so edifyingly and gently. I pray you will draw much deeper into Jesus so that you would continue to shine his light forever so clearly. We all need to draw away from the distractions and allow Jesus mould us so that we really are able to make him known through our words and deeds. You have blessed me greatly. Thank you
God bless you. I pray that these channels will continue to provide much blessing for you. There are times to expose error, but the focus should be on pointing to Christ! Matt 🙏
@@lionoffireraw What about all these Nigerian TH-camr's that mix God's word with their African voodoo stuff?? I'd say 90 per cent of these TH-cam channels on God are so ungodly. God bless
Thank you for sharing and highlighting this issue. I've been feeling this lately. Missing the depth. And getting tired of the finger pointing and criticisms within the church body, re doctrine.
I am so grateful for a message like this. I had to take a hard look at myself and the reasons I would watch those types of videos. I am convicted and committing today to watch the content that builds me up and draw me closer to God, not serving my flesh. Thank you, brother in Christ. If we spend half the time in the Word of God that we are spending on these platforms, our Christian lives would look very different. May God bless you today and always.
Brother, you make sense and you’re so right. God bless you as you have got me thinking about some of the so called Christian content I have been consuming . 🙏🏽🙏🏽
Amen brother i agree with you, and i can see so many feel the same. TH-cam is a distraction for the most part. Stay away from any channels that slander other Christians, debate endless discussions, and exposing channels.
A very timely message. I would bet that most of the people who watch this video (INCLUDING MYSELF) also need to reduce the amount of time they (we) spend on youtube and increase the amount of time we spend alone with God.
Funny thing is that you are essentially alone-- you aren't connecting with anyone-- on these kooky devices here on TH-cam. Typing little notes to nobody you really know and never will know is nutty. Have no idea if this is all a test to see if AI can fool you. In other words, this guy may be a robot but he doesn't look or sound like what you expect a robot to look like, necessarily. Then, you hear and see people who you absolutely know are robots or AI. Problem is, it's all a game. Finally, you will have no idea whether or not something is AI generated or a robot. AND, you actually won't care because you no longer feel much of anything and can't tell one way or the other if it is or isn't a real person. I'm certain this has happened already. Decades ago or almost a century ago. Maybe for a very long time somehow. The very best robots or AI are rolled out in certain youtubes to see if they FOOL everybody. The lesser quality robots are there to cause you to think you will spot the difference between real and fake. But you won't always. Also, there are humans who can behave like you think a robot will behave. They are also used in the mix in order to confound you... None of this is going to play out very well, is it? No, it really isn't. It isn't good now. Holograms have been created for quite some time. That's concerning, isn't it? 7:04
This is a word in season for me as i have had more than enough of these utube videos too and have been wanting to put an end to them and you have just validated my thoughts about them so i thank you and God bless you and your family 🕊️💎🕊️
You have a good point. A lot of it is just empty entertainment and distractions even some negative stuff. I'll think about blocking some channels too...
God Bless you brother!! This is the first video I've watched of yours. I have to say it was an instant feeling of calmness and connectedness as I heard that beautiful Aussie accent 😂 North QLDer here so I can't agree on the weather statement...but I agree on your discerning insights 😉 Couldn't agree more!! I've been feeling the exact same recently. All I think about is knowing more, hearing more, understanding my walk with God more etc etc. I've been changed in the most incredible, unbelievable way recently where I feel the Holy Spirit more than ever in my life!! I have the most intense desire, hunger, thirst to hear about God all day to the point I'm not even interested in anything else. However, and a big however.....I can totally see my carnal side gradually dipping more into toxic habbits and getting caught up in trivial matters, which the online world seems to fester in unbelievable ways. Rather than just relying on the Holy Spirit and picking up my Bible , I'm falling into the soul depleting content as you confurm is a reality. I'm a terrible reader (comprehension wise) so I tend to avoid books at any cost. But this is not just any book that I am avoiding and I'm definitely starting to realise that. All this other content just doesn't fulfill that part of me I'm so desperately seeking. Maybe I too will get out away from technology even if it's into the hot, humid, endless sweat producing weather here in NQ and just read my bible!! ❤✝️
Thank you for putting this out there! Yes I have been caught up in consuming the same content that leaves me feeling empty and guilty for having wasted my time or has gotten me all stirred up about things I can do nothing about. This video has enne to be more vigilant in guarding my time and my mind and heart.
I'm with you on that Matt. I need to get off of TH-cam and get back into reading the Bible. Some of the Christian channels on TH-cam, people are bickering with each other on who's right and who's wrong about different scriptures in the Bible. I'm so glad your video popped up. Thank you for making this video, really needed a reminder on whats important and it's not TH-cam but getting back into the word or just spending time talking to God. Blessings to you always...your long time friend 😊
I agree. I am also weary of so many channels focusing on the entertainment industry, sensationalism and questionable teachings. I am always encouraged and challenged by David Pawson, David Wilkerson, Zac Poonen and his network of assemblies. I am also blessed by many of the teachings of Sound Faith, an Anabaptist site.
I have read David Wilkinson's sermons for 33years. He was a humble man of God and his sermons and the 1973 vision God gave him....is for today. Ps David spoke the TRUTH OF THE WORD OF GOD.
Dr. Michael Heiser’s videos always make me want to study my Bible more and more and know Jesus better. I love this video, I am going to block the other channels too! Thank you for sharing this!❤❤❤❤❤❤
Now Heiser DOES talk about Nephilim but not in the way most people do. He is a Bible scholar, so he focuses on the text. The Naked Bible podcast is one of his.
You are 100% right brother, every believer who is consumed with christian you tubers should see your video to open their eyes....blessings on you from Ventura, ca.
Thank you Matt words of wisdom as always God Bless you and yours. Just off subject for a moment...just look at that beautiful background in your video and the wonderful sunny weather. Raining here..not quite in spring yet lol
Matt, I am very selective about what I put into me. Your channel has become my favorite because you are speaking truth about what God tells me and a great conformation to his word. I am very blessed to know you and hope your sharing doesn’t stop anytime soon. ❤
I couldn't agree more. I spent 15 years in a Pentecostal church (a mild one, not too way out). I left 10 years ago, and since covid I've been watching discernment channels which have helped me work out what is biblical and what is not. Fighting For The Faith is one of my favourites because Chris explains everything from a biblical perspective. I have learnt so much. I have only recently come across your channel and love the peaceful air you put across. God bless.
This ‘discernment’ channels are predominantly Calvinist cessationist and their doctrinal beliefs naturally formulate their opinions. They are known as modern day heretic hunters and are pretty much a popular cult on TH-cam. They share and regurgitate the same material for likes on their own channels. They are consistently negative and criticise, mock, ridicule and find fault with most things Charismatic and Pentecostal. Their favourite go to figures are the likes of Joyce Meyer, Benny Hinn, Kenneth Copeland, Joel Osteen etc. I caught Rosbrough taking Joyce Meyer out of context. I happened to have listened to her talk beforehand and Rosbrough had clipped the bit he could find fault with and built his channel episode around this false misrepresentation. They are more recently rounding on one of their own, Alistair Begg. Alistair had the temerity to utter blasphemy by announcing he’d advised someone to attend their grandchild’s gay wedding and take a gift. The heretic hunters are having a field day. Yet, these self appointed watchers and discerners haven’t yet realised that Jesus was likewise criticised for entering houses of sinners and eating with them.
I would love to suggest Jack Hibbs, in Calvary Chapel Chino Hills Teaches in context which is paramount. But dont take my word for it, see for yourself❤ You're spot on, we have to weed out and be picky on what/who we watch❤
Jack is very entertaining, he tickles the ears. We used to watch him too but now we have in the past year starting reading the Bible aloud on the Sabbath instead of listening to a preacher. I grew up in the church, Christian camps, Christian schools and I realized after reading the Scripture that I thought I knew it yet did not. Jack knows enough to get by but if you follow him, you are not getting the full picture.
@@jannaswanson271 Jack Hibbs is the last preacher to "tickle ears" , that's absolutely bogus and absurd. In fact he is preaching more truth than he ever has, maybe you should listen before you even go there. He's not preaching about walking in victory and using Jesus as a genie, no he's preaching about sin, salvation, the blood and AGAIN SIN You are wayyyyyy off
@@daytripper9579 He is teaching that there is a rapture. Yahusha told us that His elect will be collected by angels after the Tribulation. The saints are clearly seen within the Tribulation in Revelation. Even I Thessalonians 4:16-17 is that same event. There will be many people who will have a crisis of faith when the Mark of the Beast is offered because of this doctrine of demons. We used to watch Jack's church on YT. I have been to Jan Markell's prophecy conference at the church I used to attend in Minneapolis.
I have lost count of the number of so called "christian" youtube channels i have blocked. heresy, arrogance, fighting, name calling. . . . . . . . . they are full of this a waste of time, ALL OF THEM
I agree. While there is a place for the "watchman" ministry, this should not be our primary diet of spiritual content! I used to be an apologetics "junkie", and while I still love sharing the true gospel, especially with the door-to-door cult "evangelists", I find that I'm more effective in sharing the gospel when my primary focus is growing in the grace and knowledge of our Lord Jesus Christ, not learning of the errors and failings of others. Our witnessing should be an outgrowth of our relationship with Jesus, not a replacement for it, and I find that these channels about which you're speaking generally tend towards the latter. They can be valuable in those select cases when I'm presented with a direct question about any given person, but otherwise my time is much more productively used in focusing on reading, meditating on and studying the scriptures. This is a timely message, and I pray that it is will heard and heeded.
This video came up in my feed. And am so glad it did ! You,young man have just discovered the way to personal revival.What you said in the whole video is exactly what I have been feeling for a long time. The three books you showed and talked about are absolutely amazing, I read them all years ago and plan on rereading them and a lot of others again. Oswald Chambers is one of the best Christian writer/teacher I ever read. It’s time for each of us who love the Lord,to get away and spend as much time with Him as we can..in prayer,meditation and praise we will find strength,courage ,peace and be conformed to His image. Highly recommend that everyone read those three books and study them along with your Bible study. There are so many great books that we need to read or reread and get away from all the worldly garbage thrown at us. Bless you and will continue to watch your channel.
My suggestion - First read our Bible every day. If you read 22 vss of the NT every day and 64 vss of the OT every day you can get through the entire Bible in a year. Once you've done that you will have discernment to know which channels on TH-cam are going to give you good nourishment.
I'm with you brother Matt I can't stand videos like that I also want to block stuff like that God bless you brother Matt sending blessings and love from Pennsylvania USA❤
I understand what you mean. I'm taking up most of my day on the 'prayer' videos and 'learning from the bible', and, like you, I come away feeling nothing. However, they are good to learn from and then I've realised we need to start spending time with God. Thanks for sharing your thoughts.
I agree 100%. Started to read my paper Bible again although I find it easier to use IPad because of my hand problems. But find a lot of the TH-cam is very distracting. One that I do like and listen to is Grace for Purpose A Blessed morning prayer to start your day. Thank you for sharing.
Agree 100 % !!!! We are swamped with hermeneutical disasters ++ and plainly unbiblical rubbish . The teachings of JC Ryle , Spurgeon ,Scroggie Tozer etc will most assuredly keep your thinking biblically aligned !!
I love listening to CityAlight songs! Their lyrics are true to the Word. Thanks for sharing this video. So true about distracting myself, I do that. Thanks for this reminder 🙂
Ken Ham is amazing and built this Giant Ark in Kentucky. Christians go there from all over the world. I'm disabled and couldn't go but I would love too. Another one is Truth is Christ. He is such a humble young man and a true man of God. I always feel good after watching his beautiful videos. You will love them. God has truly Blessed this young man. So funny how I've been feeling that same way and have also deleted many of channels. It can surely drag you down and waste your precious time away from God. I have been drifting away from the scriptures. That can cause you to allow other spirits to creep in that you don't want. I'm going to have to completely get back on track. Thank you for awakening me today. I needed this. God Bless!!
I like the truth in Christ and believe the King James is perfect preserved word of God. But the word of God never changes so I believe he missed it when he said it supercedes
How true and I'm guilty of watching Christian content that talks about celebrities being satanics, or accusing other Christian TH-camrs of heresy or their personal lives, etc. It is a huge distraction. I do enjoy watching sermons from Charles Stanley, daily devotions, prayers on certain needs, Marc the Messenger, and a few others. But I've been removing some channels that don't seem to honor God. But you're right, we need to spend more time with the Lord, read His Word, and commit to more prayer. Enjoying God's creation is awesome! Thank you for the encouragement on this.
I agree with you they are a distraction. But we as Christians should expose darkness. Eph 5:11 Take no part in the unfruitful works of darkness, but instead expose them.
@@MyLordAndMyGodJesusChrist The difficult part is that you start being accused of judgement. And I explain to them that we are to use righteous judgment. Judge without condemnation but rather out of God's love in us.
@@mariamendoza5353 Dont worry about what other people think, as long as your heart is clean with God you are good 🙏🏼 In order to know what is good we have to know what is bad and expose it.
1 Corinthians 14;33 For God is not the author of confusion, but of peace, as in all churches of the saints. Do you leave your church feeling at peace or anxious?
There are also a lot of heresy hunter type channels out there. They sut and evaluate all these people/celebs and I'm like is that really want you to bring before God when you leave this planet?!
I choose to spend more time praying in communion with Christ, praising God, studying Bible, listening to old sermons, teaching Bible stories to kids, and serving others. I support your decision.
Those chew up and spit you out channels are a dime a dozen. I'm got out of the argument and debate game because the environment became so hostile and lacking benefit of any kind. These people are cemented in their worldview and accuse you of putting Box in a box. They became labelists and hypocritical towards anyone who dared to put up a different perspective.
We all do that to a certain degree. I have learned much by others challenging my beliefs. Always be open to learning new things but you MUST make sure all things align with the Word. there are many things in the Word that the mainstream churches do not teach. If you do not know the Scripture well enough to do this you are defenseless.
you hit the nail the on the head ... no one is thinking much about "does this leave me riveted with the Glory of God?" ... i recently saw a YT short where this young lady talked about the verse in Psalms (37, I think) ... "delight yourself in the Lord and He will give you the desires of your heart." then she talked about the phrase "delight yourself" and mentioned that it means to be soft and pliable in God's hands ... now that's quality and that's something to take home for life ... this simple young lady in that moment outperformed so many preachers and YT channels in a matter of seconds
This makes a lot of sense. Been feeling this way for awhile now. Not a content creator, but a huge consumer of it. A lot of these Christian channels have left me more confused than ive ever been in my life. That tells me a whole lot right there.
Pastor Jack Hibbs is excellent. I think we actually met on his channel a few years ago. I am in NZ and have CFS like you. Just got his book ‘Living in the Daze of Deception’. But I totally understand.The worse I got with earth, the closer I have come to Jesus and often when I have to lie down, I go through memorized verses and sort of word by word how much it really means. Also Dr Jeremiah is a real man of God. Also have a look at ‘Warchman River’ Tom first goes through some Bible verses, then talks about Rapture related topics and always ends with a Gospel message, which is what he began the channel for. He’s a lovely older man. God bless you, Matt.❤
The rapture is false doctrine. Yahusha is clear in Matthew 24:29-31 that His elect will be collected by angels after the Tribulation. The Bible says this 4 times. The saints are within the Tribulation in Revelation. No verse says there is a rapture.
People are blindly following false teachers these days. That is why I appreciate the channels that expose the false teachers. They are opening people's eyes to the deception that is taking place. Truth can be found in the word of God, not in the mouths of false teachers.

The internet wasn't created to give wisdom but knowledge & rightly so.
Very wise decision. I want to get back into reading my paper Bible (not just my phone) so I can highlight and underline verses like I used to. 😊
It's strange, even when not making notes, there is something about the physical Bible I find so much better than reading on the phone. I'll read anything else on a device, no problem.❤️

Love this verse...when I start getting negative thoughts I think of this verse. I had it put on the cover of my grand daughter's bible I gifted her.
ditto.

I try to have Bible study and Focus on the Word of God on my channel, however, that doesn’t get Subs or TH-cam’s algorithm moving. But that’s ok. I’m not here to be popular. I’m here to point to Jesus and His amazing Word.
Great video! Thanks for pointing this out and making us not feel alone.
God Bless you!

What I do find that lifts my spirits on TH-cam is Christian testimonies. I love typing in “new age to Jesus” or broken and hurting to Jesus” etc.
some of my favorite testimonies are
Micah Wilder, Steven Bancarz, Jeff Morgan. I really love Jeff’s new channel “So Be It”. Ray Comfort “Living Waters”. One for Israel. That’s a great channel. Especially the interviews Jews find Jesus.
Or Nabeel Qureshi - his story is incredible, all the way to his death bed. Incredible

I couldn't agree more! So tired of the "Christian" backbiting and negativity. He has come to bring life and life more abundantly!
We can overwhelm ourselves with " input ". Sometimes we must disconnect from noise. We need...NEED quiet time alone in scripture and prayer.
Hope you're having a good week.
I'm chasing that quiet as I get older the noise been watching monk documentary some grt nuggets to learn from them .not into there doctrine but some nuggets of quiet . Prayer . Reading. Meditating. Switching TV of phone of never was addicted to TV but am yt not good got too many books to read never remember what we watch on yt half time there all coming out this is right this wrong let's find God our self back to basics for a while. Quiet bliss heaven
Yes I agree. i am 70 years old and have been on the streets for the last 6 months sharing the Gospel. 3,250 people have encountered God . We are out 6 days a week praying with people.
Advice for someone handing out tracts and praying with people for the first time this Saturday?
What a confirmation...

I agree. Memorizing Scripture will transform more than anything! Take time to be HOLY!
This is one of my goals ❤
It's deeply unsettling to hear an AI "praying".
Lack of Discernment leads to Confusion and Insecurity 🥺 Sydney Australia
I know how you feel. I've noticed that sometimes when I block them or hide them, TH-cam has a way of showing them to me anyway. Quite frustrating...
I'd like to block a few channels myself, but don't know how to. How do you block a channel here at TH-cam?
Yes i have had that happen too very invasive indeed
@@TBone14159On your initial feed of recommended videos, if you click on the 3 dots underneath (beside?) the video, there is an option not to be shown the channel again. I'm not sure if there is another way. The three dots don't show that option if they are from a search that you do on TH-cam. Hope this helps.
They say they give me the right to filter my ads but that's a crock
@@TBone14159 I tried to reply earlier, but just realized it wasn’t posted for some reason. You can ask to not be recommended videos from a channel by clicking on the three dots underneath (beside?) a video on your home feed. If you do a search, the three dots on the list of videos doesn’t have this option. Not sure if there’s another way to do it. Hope this helps.
I like to listen to Melissa Dougherty.
Me too. I didn’t know much about New Age before. Listening to her I see it in many churches sadly. I’m better equipped to recognize it now.
Melissa is the real deal; gotta love her!
She is amazing!
I didn't know I could block channels...thank you. A lot of these so-called Christian channels are fear based and are instilling fear and terror about the future. You make a good point.
Off the Kirb ministries by Joe Kirby. God bless him. No ads. Not monitized. Does not ask for money. He is annointed.
Agree
New Wine Miniseries see good too.
He takes soooo long to get to the point
@@jaqian I would always be like what is he even talking about? It would be so cringe.
Yes, Joe Kirby, and Ray Comfort.
I get a lot out of such teachers as Dr Chuck Missler, Dr Michael Heiser and Dr Andy Woods. Lets not forget Pastor JD Farag and his weekly prophecy updates. Much love young brother.
Chuck Missler was so awesome. It's a shame he's no longer with us but at least he left so much content to study in the form of videos, audio recordings and books.
JD is great and he's funny, really great personality with the love of Christ.
I like the DTBM channel. (Discovering the book ministries).
@@frenzyviz6296Yes! He’s a great one to add to this great list.🙏
All great!!! Jd has been my favorite pastor for 8 yrs. He's helped me learn about God's word....he speaks truth, but I come away from his message uplifted, but his content isn't for the people, who want a feel good message. It's for people, who want to be fed the truth,,,,the people who have the eyes to see, and ears to hear❤
Thank you for this. This is absolutely confirmation, I don't think I've ever seen any of your videos before, so this popping up first thing surprised me. I've been struggling with this and social media, because I am bored often due to unemployment from disabilities. It's hard to find a balance when you don't work but I will try harder to be intentional with my time with Him. Thank you!!
I agree with you, but I got a message from watching this video. "if we allow once our prayer to be crowded out". That random selection was the message I needed to hear. I need to be more focused, calm and prepared without distractions when I pray. Coincidence? I think not. Thank you and God bless.
So glad!!
I've been listening to some old time preachers as well, things that stood too me were;
"A repentant heart - George Whitfield sermon"
"Counterfeit Christianity - J C Ryle sermon"
"John Bumyan's vision of heaven and hell" (1h 40m)
But the most important thing is listening to that still small voice calling you to prayer, because it took me a while to figure out that is the Holy Spirit, and we can have fellowship with Him, and He will guide you in all truth, when we are focused on Jesus, God bless you guys
Don’t forget the sermons from Charles Stanley and Adrian Rogers. excellent Christian teaching. Very uplifting.
Charles Stanley's son is a heretic and Charles Stanley is also dangerous. Saying if you take mark of the beast or are a practicing homosexual you can have eternal life because of eternal security. I don't remember the exact details, but be careful of wolves in sheeps clothing.
I have only just recently found your channels and what stood out to me how different you are to many other Christian channels. A breeze of fresh air that points to Jesus so edifyingly and gently. I pray you will draw much deeper into Jesus so that you would continue to shine his light forever so clearly. We all need to draw away from the distractions and allow Jesus mould us so that we really are able to make him known through our words and deeds.
You have blessed me greatly. Thank you
God bless you. I pray that these channels will continue to provide much blessing for you. There are times to expose error, but the focus should be on pointing to Christ!
Matt 🙏
@@lionoffireraw What about all these Nigerian TH-camr's that mix God's word with their African voodoo stuff?? I'd say 90 per cent of these TH-cam channels on God are so ungodly. God bless
So beautifully said. " shallow bits of entertainment " May the Lord grant you the desire of your heart.
You are so right! We need feeding spiritually, and so much about what is bad about churches is prolifically available. I am joining you, brother.
This is sooooooo important; we’re all addicted to YT and need to go off it cold Turkey! Thank you!
Thank you for sharing and highlighting this issue. I've been feeling this lately. Missing the depth. And getting tired of the finger pointing and criticisms within the church body, re doctrine.
I am so grateful for a message like this. I had to take a hard look at myself and the reasons I would watch those types of videos. I am convicted and committing today to watch the content that builds me up and draw me closer to God, not serving my flesh. Thank you, brother in Christ. If we spend half the time in the Word of God that we are spending on these platforms, our Christian lives would look very different. May God bless you today and always.
Brother, you make sense and you’re so right. God bless you as you have got me thinking about some of the so called Christian content I have been consuming . 🙏🏽🙏🏽
Amen brother i agree with you, and i can see so many feel the same.
TH-cam is a distraction for the most part.
Stay away from any channels that slander other Christians, debate endless discussions, and exposing channels.
A very timely message. I would bet that most of the people who watch this video (INCLUDING MYSELF) also need to reduce the amount of time they (we) spend on youtube and increase the amount of time we spend alone with God.
Do I ever!!
I sure do.
@@RestingDogFace do you have a link to the video?
Funny thing is that you are essentially alone-- you aren't connecting with anyone-- on these kooky devices here on TH-cam.
Typing little notes to nobody you really know and never will know is nutty. Have no idea if this is all a test to see if AI can fool you. In other words, this guy may be a robot but he doesn't look or sound like what you expect a robot to look like, necessarily. Then, you hear and see people who you absolutely know are robots or AI. Problem is, it's all a game. Finally, you will have no idea whether or not something is AI generated or a robot. AND, you actually won't care because you no longer feel much of anything and can't tell one way or the other if it is or isn't a real person.
I'm certain this has happened already. Decades ago or almost a century ago. Maybe for a very long time somehow. The very best robots or AI are rolled out in certain youtubes to see if they FOOL everybody. The lesser quality robots are there to cause you to think you will spot the difference between real and fake. But you won't always. Also, there are humans who can behave like you think a robot will behave. They are also used in the mix in order to confound you...
None of this is going to play out very well, is it? No, it really isn't. It isn't good now.
Holograms have been created for quite some time. That's concerning, isn't it? 7:04
Love My Utmost for His Highest!! Into my 3rd year 🤗
This is a word in season for me as i have had more than enough of these utube videos too and have been wanting to put an end to them and you have just validated my thoughts about them so i thank you and God bless you and your family 🕊️💎🕊️
Thank you. You are right. Bless you.
I think you are absolutely right!!! Reading books written by men of GOD who have a deep walk with the LORD!!!!
Same here, good video. Some absolute rubbish on TH-cam now and a plethora of false teaching.
Thank you Brother. I feel the same but was feeling guilty for feeling like that, thinking something was wrong with me spiritually.
You have a good point. A lot of it is just empty entertainment and distractions even some negative stuff. I'll think about blocking some channels too...
You nailed it on “transforms the heart”. That is the key.
God Bless you brother!! This is the first video I've watched of yours. I have to say it was an instant feeling of calmness and connectedness as I heard that beautiful Aussie accent 😂 North QLDer here so I can't agree on the weather statement...but I agree on your discerning insights 😉
Couldn't agree more!! I've been feeling the exact same recently. All I think about is knowing more, hearing more, understanding my walk with God more etc etc. I've been changed in the most incredible, unbelievable way recently where I feel the Holy Spirit more than ever in my life!! I have the most intense desire, hunger, thirst to hear about God all day to the point I'm not even interested in anything else. However, and a big however.....I can totally see my carnal side gradually dipping more into toxic habbits and getting caught up in trivial matters, which the online world seems to fester in unbelievable ways.
Rather than just relying on the Holy Spirit and picking up my Bible , I'm falling into the soul depleting content as you confurm is a reality. I'm a terrible reader (comprehension wise) so I tend to avoid books at any cost. But this is not just any book that I am avoiding and I'm definitely starting to realise that. All this other content just doesn't fulfill that part of me I'm so desperately seeking.
Maybe I too will get out away from technology even if it's into the hot, humid, endless sweat producing weather here in NQ and just read my bible!! ❤✝️
Your words echo my thoughts exactly! Thank you!
Thank you for putting this out there! Yes I have been caught up in consuming the same content that leaves me feeling empty and guilty for having wasted my time or has gotten me all stirred up about things I can do nothing about. This video has enne to be more vigilant in guarding my time and my mind and heart.
I'm with you on that Matt. I need to get off of TH-cam and get back into reading the Bible. Some of the Christian channels on TH-cam, people are bickering with each other on who's right and who's wrong about different scriptures in the Bible. I'm so glad your video popped up. Thank you for making this video, really needed a reminder on whats important and it's not TH-cam but getting back into the word or just spending time talking to God. Blessings to you always...your long time friend 😊
Great comment. Agreed!
I agree. I am also weary of so many channels focusing on the entertainment industry, sensationalism and questionable teachings. I am always encouraged and challenged by David Pawson, David Wilkerson, Zac Poonen and his network of assemblies. I am also blessed by many of the teachings of Sound Faith, an Anabaptist site.
I have read David Wilkinson's sermons for 33years. He was a humble man of God and his sermons and the 1973 vision God gave him....is for today.
Ps David spoke the TRUTH OF THE WORD OF GOD.
Thank you for posting this message of remembering to focus on the main thing, and not to let out curiosity side track our attention.
This is so good. Seeking His Presence is our number One priority. I needed to hear this. Thank you young man.
Dr. Michael Heiser’s videos always make me want to study my Bible more and more and know Jesus better. I love this video, I am going to block the other channels too! Thank you for sharing this!❤❤❤❤❤❤
Now Heiser DOES talk about Nephilim but not in the way most people do. He is a Bible scholar, so he focuses on the text. The Naked Bible podcast is one of his.
If it's hyper charismatic, legalist fundamentalist, dispensationalist fear mongering or prosperity I tend to avoid it
Its amazing how people can twist the Bible.
As you should! Praise God!
You are 100% right brother, every believer who is consumed with christian you tubers should see your video to open their eyes....blessings on you from Ventura, ca.
Thank you Matt words of wisdom as always God Bless you and yours. Just off subject for a moment...just look at that beautiful background in your video and the wonderful sunny weather. Raining here..not quite in spring yet lol
Meanwhile, I had to brush snow off my van this morning! 😆❄️ But I did see tiny little paw prints in the snow... so adorable! 🐾 (Happy Spring!😅)
Great insight mate! You're in my prayers ✝
Thank you for making this video!! I feel the same way!!
Matt, I am very selective about what I put into me. Your channel has become my favorite because you are speaking truth about what God tells me and a great conformation to his word. I am very blessed to know you and hope your sharing doesn’t stop anytime soon. ❤
We agree with you 100 percent! Thanks for sharing your thoughts on the subject.
I couldn't agree more. I spent 15 years in a Pentecostal church (a mild one, not too way out). I left 10 years ago, and since covid I've been watching discernment channels which have helped me work out what is biblical and what is not. Fighting For The Faith is one of my favourites because Chris explains everything from a biblical perspective. I have learnt so much. I have only recently come across your channel and love the peaceful air you put across. God bless.
This ‘discernment’ channels are predominantly Calvinist cessationist and their doctrinal beliefs naturally formulate their opinions. They are known as modern day heretic hunters and are pretty much a popular cult on TH-cam. They share and regurgitate the same material for likes on their own channels. They are consistently negative and criticise, mock, ridicule and find fault with most things Charismatic and Pentecostal.
Their favourite go to figures are the likes of Joyce Meyer, Benny Hinn, Kenneth Copeland, Joel Osteen etc. I caught Rosbrough taking Joyce Meyer out of context. I happened to have listened to her talk beforehand and Rosbrough had clipped the bit he could find fault with and built his channel episode around this false misrepresentation.
They are more recently rounding on one of their own, Alistair Begg. Alistair had the temerity to utter blasphemy by announcing he’d advised someone to attend their grandchild’s gay wedding and take a gift. The heretic hunters are having a field day. Yet, these self appointed watchers and discerners haven’t yet realised that Jesus was likewise criticised for entering houses of sinners and eating with them.
Chris is great! Yes it's true he doesn't pull any punches when it comes to false teaching. But he shares the gospel and sound doctrine. Love his work.
I would love to suggest Jack Hibbs, in Calvary Chapel Chino Hills
Teaches in context which is paramount. But dont take my word for it, see for yourself❤
You're spot on, we have to weed out and be picky on what/who we watch❤
False teacher he's a Christian nationalist
Jack is very entertaining, he tickles the ears. We used to watch him too but now we have in the past year starting reading the Bible aloud on the Sabbath instead of listening to a preacher. I grew up in the church, Christian camps, Christian schools and I realized after reading the Scripture that I thought I knew it yet did not. Jack knows enough to get by but if you follow him, you are not getting the full picture.
@@jannaswanson271 Jack Hibbs is the last preacher to "tickle ears" , that's absolutely bogus and absurd. In fact he is preaching more truth than he ever has, maybe you should listen before you even go there.
He's not preaching about walking in victory and using Jesus as a genie, no he's preaching about sin, salvation, the blood and AGAIN SIN
You are wayyyyyy off
@@daytripper9579 He is teaching that there is a rapture. Yahusha told us that His elect will be collected by angels after the Tribulation. The saints are clearly seen within the Tribulation in Revelation. Even I Thessalonians 4:16-17 is that same event.
There will be many people who will have a crisis of faith when the Mark of the Beast is offered because of this doctrine of demons.
We used to watch Jack's church on YT. I have been to Jan Markell's prophecy conference at the church I used to attend in Minneapolis.
So thankful for finding you this morning. Lately my Christian channels are sounding too ominous. God Bless from Canada❤
That’s a great idea! I’ve been really enjoying Daniel Batarseh’s Bible study as I’m going through 1 Samuel.
I have lost count of the number of so called "christian" youtube channels i have blocked.
heresy, arrogance, fighting, name calling. . . . . . . . . they are full of this
a waste of time, ALL OF THEM
I agree. While there is a place for the "watchman" ministry, this should not be our primary diet of spiritual content! I used to be an apologetics "junkie", and while I still love sharing the true gospel, especially with the door-to-door cult "evangelists", I find that I'm more effective in sharing the gospel when my primary focus is growing in the grace and knowledge of our Lord Jesus Christ, not learning of the errors and failings of others. Our witnessing should be an outgrowth of our relationship with Jesus, not a replacement for it, and I find that these channels about which you're speaking generally tend towards the latter. They can be valuable in those select cases when I'm presented with a direct question about any given person, but otherwise my time is much more productively used in focusing on reading, meditating on and studying the scriptures. This is a timely message, and I pray that it is will heard and heeded.
This video came up in my feed. And am so glad it did ! You,young man have just discovered the way to personal revival.What you said in the whole video is exactly what I have been feeling for a long time. The three books you showed and talked about are absolutely amazing, I read them all years ago and plan on rereading them and a lot of others again. Oswald Chambers is one of the best Christian writer/teacher I ever read. It’s time for each of us who love the Lord,to get away and spend as much time with Him as we can..in prayer,meditation and praise we will find strength,courage ,peace and be conformed to His image. Highly recommend that everyone read those three books and study them along with your Bible study. There are so many great books that we need to read or reread and get away from all the worldly garbage thrown at us. Bless you and will continue to watch your channel.
This was very convicting for me. Thank you!
In so glad that it blessed you!!

This is a true teacher of Gods word
Verse by verse, chapter by chapter
May Our Lord's best be yours🙏
Such a solid teacher of the Word
If you read the Bible yourself you will see how much these pastors do not teach of Scripture.
My suggestion - First read our Bible every day. If you read 22 vss of the NT every day and 64 vss of the OT every day you can get through the entire Bible in a year. Once you've done that you will have discernment to know which channels on TH-cam are going to give you good nourishment.
I'm with you brother Matt I can't stand videos like that I also want to block stuff like that God bless you brother Matt sending blessings and love from Pennsylvania USA❤
I understand what you mean. I'm taking up most of my day on the 'prayer' videos and 'learning from the bible', and, like you, I come away feeling nothing. However, they are good to learn from and then I've realised we need to start spending time with God.
Thanks for sharing your thoughts.
Read the entire Scriptures. You will be shocked at how much the mainstream church does not teach.
I’ve been doing this for weeks 😅 it’s helping a lot
I agree as well. Passion For Truth is another wonderful channel
I agree 100%. Started to read my paper Bible again although I find it easier to use IPad because of my hand problems. But find a lot of the TH-cam is very distracting. One that I do like and listen to is Grace for Purpose A Blessed morning prayer to start your day. Thank you for sharing.
You nailed it .. 100 percent.. your words confirm how I am feeling
Agree 100 % !!!! We are swamped with hermeneutical disasters ++ and plainly unbiblical rubbish . The teachings of JC Ryle , Spurgeon ,Scroggie Tozer etc will most assuredly keep your thinking biblically aligned !!
I love listening to CityAlight songs! Their lyrics are true to the Word. Thanks for sharing this video. So true about distracting myself, I do that. Thanks for this reminder 🙂
Great idea , I'm going to put this into practice. Not sure how to block but I will figure it out ❤
This is so important and relevant. Thank you and God bless you.
I feel the same way!
I like off the kirb, Susan Heck, Charles Lawson!
I like listening to Paul Washer and Off the Kirb. Sometimes i listen to Ray Comfort.
I like Billy Graham’s sermons too.
Ray Comfort gives a very confusing gospel message.
He gives a very works based salvation message.
And so many who hear him , come away very confused.
Paul Washers narrow path is THE BEST video EVER!!!! Rays Great too. off the kirb bit sensationalist for me 🙂ok tho
John MacArthur is my favorite
@@daveyboy6985 His message is that we're saved by faith and works are evidence of that faith, like what the bible teaches
just taking a break and found you again and so glad i did..........i want more purity in my life!
Good reminder for me too. Thank you for your video on this issue.
Ken Ham is amazing and built this Giant Ark in Kentucky. Christians go there from all over the world. I'm disabled and couldn't go but I would love too. Another one is Truth is Christ. He is such a humble young man and a true man of God. I always feel good after watching his beautiful videos. You will love them. God has truly Blessed this young man. So funny how I've been feeling that same way and have also deleted many of channels. It can surely drag you down and waste your precious time away from God. I have been drifting away from the scriptures. That can cause you to allow other spirits to creep in that you don't want. I'm going to have to completely get back on track. Thank you for awakening me today. I needed this. God Bless!!
I like the truth in Christ and believe the King James is perfect preserved word of God. But the word of God never changes so I believe he missed it when he said it supercedes
Tim Leech of Bethel, Ball Green, England is a good, sound preacher/teacher.
How true and I'm guilty of watching Christian content that talks about celebrities being satanics, or accusing other Christian TH-camrs of heresy or their personal lives, etc. It is a huge distraction. I do enjoy watching sermons from Charles Stanley, daily devotions, prayers on certain needs, Marc the Messenger, and a few others. But I've been removing some channels that don't seem to honor God.
But you're right, we need to spend more time with the Lord, read His Word, and commit to more prayer. Enjoying God's creation is awesome! Thank you for the encouragement on this.
I agree with you they are a distraction. But we as Christians should expose darkness.
Eph 5:11 Take no part in the unfruitful works of darkness, but instead expose them.
@@MyLordAndMyGodJesusChrist The difficult part is that you start being accused of judgement. And I explain to them that we are to use righteous judgment. Judge without condemnation but rather out of God's love in us.
@@mariamendoza5353 Dont worry about what other people think, as long as your heart is clean with God you are good 🙏🏼
In order to know what is good we have to know what is bad and expose it.
@@MyLordAndMyGodJesusChrist Thank you. I'll definitely keep that in mind. 🙏
@@mariamendoza5353 Amen sister 🙏🏼🙏🏼
I love your background so beautiful. Thank u for message
So true! Thank you for this!

Yes, I’ve learned to witness better watching Ray❣️

1 Corinthians 14;33 For God is not the author of confusion, but of peace, as in all churches of the saints. Do you leave your church feeling at peace or anxious?
Thank you! Going to my Bible now! 😊
There are also a lot of heresy hunter type channels out there. They sut and evaluate all these people/celebs and I'm like is that really want you to bring before God when you leave this planet?!
I really enjoy Martyn Iles's channel on TH-cam....very uplifting.
I choose to spend more time praying in communion with Christ, praising God, studying Bible, listening to old sermons, teaching Bible stories to kids, and serving others. I support your decision.
Pastor Frank at calvary chapel is a steady voice. I've had exactly your experience with YT and doing the same.
I can relate to what you’re saying. Thank you and god bless.
God bless you.
My mom doesn't know who I am anymore.
Oh Johnny, hang in there! That must be horribly difficult! 😭 I've been praying and I will keep on praying for her. 🙏
Those chew up and spit you out channels are a dime a dozen. I'm got out of the argument and debate game because the environment became so hostile and lacking benefit of any kind. These people are cemented in their worldview and accuse you of putting Box in a box. They became labelists and hypocritical towards anyone who dared to put up a different perspective.
We all do that to a certain degree. I have learned much by others challenging my beliefs. Always be open to learning new things but you MUST make sure all things align with the Word. there are many things in the Word that the mainstream churches do not teach. If you do not know the Scripture well enough to do this you are defenseless.
you hit the nail the on the head ... no one is thinking much about "does this leave me riveted with the Glory of God?" ... i recently saw a YT short where this young lady talked about the verse in Psalms (37, I think) ... "delight yourself in the Lord and He will give you the desires of your heart." then she talked about the phrase "delight yourself" and mentioned that it means to be soft and pliable in God's hands ... now that's quality and that's something to take home for life ... this simple young lady in that moment outperformed so many preachers and YT channels in a matter of seconds
This makes a lot of sense. Been feeling this way for awhile now. Not a content creator, but a huge consumer of it. A lot of these Christian channels have left me more confused than ive ever been in my life. That tells me a whole lot right there.
You never mentioned any of the tv channels you’re blocking, why?
Pastor Jack Hibbs is excellent. I think we actually met on his channel a few years ago. I am in NZ and have CFS like you. Just got his book ‘Living in the Daze of Deception’. But I totally understand.The worse I got with earth, the closer I have come to Jesus and often when I have to lie down, I go through memorized verses and sort of word by word how much it really means. Also Dr Jeremiah is a real man of God. Also have a look at ‘Warchman River’ Tom first goes through some Bible verses, then talks about Rapture related topics and always ends with a Gospel message, which is what he began the channel for. He’s a lovely older man. God bless you, Matt.❤
The rapture is false doctrine. Yahusha is clear in Matthew 24:29-31 that His elect will be collected by angels after the Tribulation. The Bible says this 4 times. The saints are within the Tribulation in Revelation. No verse says there is a rapture.
Also quality - Lee Brainard, Spencer Smith, Robert Breaker
People are blindly following false teachers these days. That is why I appreciate the channels that expose the false teachers. They are opening people's eyes to the deception that is taking place. Truth can be found in the word of God, not in the mouths of false teachers.
David Wilkinson, Chuck Missler, Derek Prince and Martyn Iles are always my go to for good teaching.
Paul Washer and Charles Spurgeon as well
Mark Dejesus’s channel is amazing for anyone struggling with mental health
You make good points and I will also watch with increased discernment ❤
