Procrastination - Laziness - sleep - gluttony- May the Lord remove all this and replace it with self-control, discipline, and consistency, in the name of Jesus .
Last night I finished 2 Samuel and there is a line where David says, "I don't want to burn an offering to God that cost me nothing." and it clicked that we MUST sacrifice/pay in order to praise God. Not because it's tick for tac but because we love Him so much that we don't want to give Him the worthless. Our time is one of our most precious things and spending time with God (and not on our flesh) is one of the highest costs we can pay to praise HIM!
Lets also remember that it is proportional to what we have or can offer, like the woman who only had one coin, God knows what things we struggle with ❤️
I have been in a place of idolizing marriage. I wanted it so badly that all I prayed about was that. I idolized Gods promises. I began to feel overwhelmed, impatient, and empty. I haven't been opening my Bible as much. I've been stagnant attempting to go on a vacation to stop the feeling of boredom and emptiness. I was chasing my idols. I hate to admit marriage is an idol. Although it's beautiful, and I think of Hannah with her petitions. But God timing is his timing. And I admit I've been so upset because it's not happening in my timing. I lost sight of the beautiful gift of evangelism he gave me. It's time to get back to the Fathers heart. And humble myself. I'm guilty with being on my phone before even praying or opening my Bible.
Sooo transparent !!! Well I’m Praying God answers this prayer for you in HIS timing ❤ just trust that he is in control and he has not forgotten about you 🫂
Hey sister in Christ. I've been having the same problems as well. And my heart goes out to you and people who are also struggling with this. I've been idolizing marriage but I'm a guy so I'm looking for a wife. I've gotten in to a mindset that no matter where I went I would l see a woman and wonder is she my wife? I began to get anxious wondering if it would ever happen. Especailly since we're not promised a spouse. I would get jealous of people especially good looking people who would have no problems getting married. It brought me joy when reading about Hannahs strong desire for a son and that's what caught me when reading your comment. Hannah wanted it desperately but she wasn't called an idol. It made me wonder but since so many Christians are saying it is, I guess it is. Talking to people who are going through this is really helping me. Even more than the people who are delivered from it and telling me to stop making an idol out of marriage. I've been hearing it so much that I've been asking God to take it away from me. And I'm ashamed to say it but I was actually angry with God because of it. Why would God give me this strong desire and withhold the only thing I'm able to express it away from me. I thought I was doing something wrong and I beat my self up because I thought I was too much of a sinner and wasnt' perfect enough to get a spouse. Its like the whole point of having sexual desires is so you can practice self control. I really hurt my heart thinking this and I hope it to not be the case. As I'm typing this my desire hasn't gone down much. As you can tell I am really passionate about this topic because I've been dealing with it for so long and whats a lot sadder is that I am only 19. I going to keep praying and keep on trying to trust God tho.
@awesomegermany9586 Hi there, my brother! First, I empathize with you. It is admirable at your age to desire a wife and not a gf. My greatest advice is to continually surrender this desire to Jesus. Don't ask Him to take it away from you because He placed it there for a reason. Because He will fulfill it. My challenge for you is to pray for your future wife. Get a journal and pray for her, pray for her faith, her relationship with the Lord, to be a great wife or mom, and a great servant. Once you shift your thoughts of desiring her to prayer, you will see how God will move exponentially with this as you activate your faith. Yes, good things can become idols. Money is good but can be idol, work can be an idol, school, person, etc. But as for Hannah's petitions she desired a child so desperately but what shifted was when she said God if you give me a son I'll give him to you for the rest of his life to serve you. This is where it shifted and CHANGED, God heard her prayer. It no longer became an idol to her but she surrendered it. She surrendered by basically giving her desire to God. Her prayer went from God give me a son to God give me a son that will serve you forever. You see how that works? Ultimately marriage is about giving glory to God. It's to glorify the Father. Pray for your Kingdom Wife. And watch God move on your behalf. As a word of encouragement, she's coming. Keep your eyes on Jesus. Don't worry about who or if that's her. God will make it so PLAIN and CLEAR you will not be able to deny it. Jesus loves you so much!!!! In the meantime, find out what God has called you to do. Get busy working in the field for the Kingdom.
My idol is TH-cam 😢. I deactivated all other forms of social media. I didn't really consider TH-cam to be a problem. Now I realize I just traded one addiction for another but this is the only place I get spiritual insight since I'm not in church
Right now as of this moment God called me to break up with my boyfriend of 4 years because hes is drawing me away from the Lord and im called to be obedient. I asked God for strength and a word from him and i went on youtube and this was the first video to pop up. Thank you for encouraging me. God used you and hit the nail right on the head. I dont want to delay him being saved because of my disobedience. Pray for me🤍
Hello, I will be praying for you. God called me out of my 4 yr relationship two yrs ago and it is by His strength I walked away. ❤ Abba will restore you. Blessings to you!
Praying for you! I know that’s incredibly hard and there will be pain as you grieve your relationship….but so much better in the Lord is to come ❤ He will honor your obedience!
Omg this is exactly how I’m feeling right now 😢 I don’t have the courage to end the relationship of 5 yrs it’s so hard he has been nothing but good to me but he draws me away from God and he doesn’t want to practice celibacy😔
That part - "we cannot take our flesh when we die. So why would you try to feed your flesh when your spirit is what matters spiritually?" Lord help me to always remember this quote and prioritize my spirit over flesh.
August 1 I made the first step with turning off my Tik Tok and Instagram and Facebook because the amount of hours I would waste was ridiculous. Spending all day on the apps then being too tired to read my Bible. This message was very much needed.
The fact I’ve been rewatching Love Island seasons for the past 2 months and putting off praying and worshipping and now coming across this video is insane 😭 I’m sorry God
Turns out watching TH-cam has become an idol for me. And I have been struggling with all you spoke on in this video, delayed obedience, struggles to open the Word of God, spending time in prayer. I believe the Lord sent this video to help me snap out of where I have been. Thank you for your obedience. Blessings and favor upon you and your ministry.
I just came home from running errands and came across this video. Within my feed. My flesh didn’t want me to click on this video. I’m so happy that I watched it through the whole episode. God has a way of working on a person to get their attention. He knows exactly what my soul needs. Thank you for sharing this with us. I just had to subscribe after watching.
This was for me I have been going through so much warfare the Devil is in my head and tries to make me think negatively. I cannot pray or read my bible as I should and its exhausting. Almost 3 years ever since I got baptised pray for me saints.
@@mayenziwemayncube6155 it's so hard at times to even focus but keep pushing through my sister. I was just praying and spending time with God and just spoke about this and the saw your comment. He is confirming that it's only for a while and the soldiers of God gets the hardest fights x
This is helpful! My idols have been videogames, internet apps, social media, p*rn, and many more! Please pray for me to be better at obeying God's will in my life! So far I've deleted certain apps and have been in constant study and prayer, but there's so much more to do. Thanks for the video, God bless!
Realizing idols can be a (person, place, or thing) good or bad is heartbreaking to know I let something take the place of God, I need to exercise faith to put God First (acknowledge God) God I See You and He Sees You
You answered my question why God was far away thank you holy spirit, I'm starting I have lot of idols being jobless stressed about money my kids and my phone,I will come back to give my testimony 😔
I genuinely felt the Holy Spirit was speaking through you to me. Especially when you mentioned Love Island lol. This is exactly what I’m going through. All 3 topics I’m dealing with. Literally an on time word! Now I just feel the need to speak to God about this in the secret place and repent. Thank you so much for this video 💕🙌🏾
ALL GLORY TO GOD!!! This is why I’m here!! it warms my heart so much to know God directed you and gave you revelation through this video. What a blessing! I’m praying over you lovely as I had to grow through these topics as well, God bless you beautiful and thank you for watching and listening, know that God will direct and guide you. 🤍😭😭
@@Jahlana thank you for your kind words. A lot of your videos always encourage me but this one was so strong in the sense that word for word of what you said was so on point and on time for what I’m dealing with that I knew easily it’s the Holy Spirit. Continue to be obedient to God with your videos. You’re helping more people than you know. 😊💕
This video is so timely. Doom scrolling, binge watching, social media, phone or laptop are MAJOR idols. Thank you for bringing up opening your Bible being a major struggle. This video is exactly what I needed to hear right now and speaks to my situation. I know I am not alone. THANK YOU for making this video. God Bless You, Sister!
Me tooo!!! We are not alone and this video has some at such a good time, as I was about to go and binge watch and scroll😭 This is truly a reminder that we need to redirect our time to God
This is straight obedience. The LORD, brought me to this scripture and the way He was discipling me through the text I went back this morning. I’ve been disobedient and I’ve made an idol somewhere… Time to starve them out! Thanks for the confirmation!
My idols are movies and social media. Omg!! And I have been talking to myself about this because somehow God has been trying to get my attention on this… then boom this video. Thank you Jesus!❤
Delayed obedience. Sturggling to step out on faith when i know what i need to do but dont see how it can work out. Especially in job hunting and needing money for bills. Also scared to go back to school after previously dropping out. Dont want to repeat my past mistakes. Not to mention doom scrolling more lately and just stifgling to journal and pray and read the word. May God help me.
Thank you for this video. I started asking God for confirmation for even the smallest things like what to wear, and it was nice at first, but then it started to become compulsive and I felt like a demon had taken over what I had believed to be the direction of God, it sucked out my joy and peace and made me hate doing even the most mundane things because I would be scared of doing something that offends God. Now, I ask for the grace to handle basic decisions myself and let God do the big thinking, because I belive that's why He gave us a brain
These are topics I believe every christian has dealt with or might still be dealing with (regardless of if you're a "baby" christian or you've been a christian all your life). I give God all the glory for urging youto speak on these topics.🙏
I prayed this morning to God to help me make sure I’m making the right decision to leave my job. He has blessed me so much in the last couple of months and I’m currently trying to be better at listening to what he tells me and he has spoken through you to me. I have put this job over everything. Over God, over myself, my health, my family, my wellbeing. Today I finally understand his commandment of not idolizing. I finally see Jesus. I’ve been in blinded for so long. Thank you Jesus thank you God for being patient with me and blessing me although I’m undeserving. All Glory to God!
I’ve been ignoring & grieving the holy spirit so much that I can’t feel it anymore, and I can actively feel God softening my heart from stone to flesh again, it hurts & i just want to be with him w/o all this stuff being in the way but i know it’s behind my hard decisions that that will happen. I’m not afraid, just scared of the pain but I will keep running towards him & drop everything
i struggle w/ so many things at 22 yo from smoking weed to premarital sex & i don’t want to continue living in the deceived way. I hate being lied to & I just want to be at peace w/ my Father. I see your face shining down on me Father, I want to know you. Please don’t ever leave my side
sis this is so good 😭 i definitely feel convicted. i was so on fire for God and ever since i had my baby it has been SO HARD to read, pray and worship the way i used to. i get so exhausted and overstimulated from caring for my baby all day that when he finally goes to bed instead of reading the word i watch tv 😭 i feel so lost when reading the word, i never know what to read or where to begin when i used to bible study and journal so much before! you’re so right about the gym analogy! so grateful this video popped up on my feed!!!
thank you so much sis, lately I've been finding it hard to open up my bible or to be in the presence of God. life has not been going the way I wanted it to and it just got me asking so much questions. Social media has been a big distraction for me too ! But today God reminded me through you about being obedient ! May God bless you & May God continue using you, Continue shining !
It can be difficult sister, I totally understand. I love how God uses us to remind each other. He’s smiling at you now for the awareness you have to correct your posture! I pray for you that you will claim victory over the idol of social media and that you will extend love to yourself from God as you take the time to overcome this. God loves you and He is doing amazing work in you. God bless you and thank you so much for watching pretty! 🤍
this video came right on time. i felt like i was going backwards, and not allowing myself to be moved by God, and wondered why my life felt like it was in a standstill. now i know that God led me here and for me to understand that idols were getting in the way of me spending time with Him, which in terms meant that i had trouble opening my word and then having delayed obedience in the things He wanted me to do. thank you for making this video!
I’m struggling with the aftermath of breaking my 2 yr abstinence that resulted in entering in motherhood and single motherhood at that 🥺 I’m scared because I got my daughter in disobedience that I’m not going to be able to remain her care taker. My life has turned upside down since breaking my abstinence. Bless The Lord on my Behalf
Girl, God remains God! He has gone before you. I understand that you’re healing from the consequences, but please don’t let that shield you from seeing God’s love that no one and nothing can separate from you. Let this also encourage you to see your little baby as a blessing amidst everything🫂❤
Baby girl God loves you and still wants and values you! Repent and forgive yourself. God can and will parent with you! Ask me how I know! Invite Him into that space with you. You are not alone! 🫶🏾❤
I had been making quite good progress with regular Bible study and idol starving (you’re so right, the more you do it the more you want to do it) UNTIL the day I committed to the deadline of reading the entire Bible before my 31st birthday (a little under 6 months, totally doable, but still I gotta stay on top of it obviously). That day onward I have been noticing it is harder and harder to make time for the word. My idols have been rearing their ugly heads (scrolling, online shopping, vapid TH-cam videos) and it’s just crazy how obvious it is that that’s the enemy at work. I’ve had this video in my watch later for about a week at this point because I know darn well I got idols and I’ve just been delaying obedience. No more. There’s nothing more important. The verse that I cling to in moments of weakness is Psalm 119:37 “Turn my eyes from looking at worthless things; and give me life in your ways.”
I kid you not the Lord sent me this video today. I have been struggling so much with these specific issues recently, delaying obedience and avoiding time with God out of fear of what he’s going to tell me next. And ofc to distract myself from avoiding Him I’ve been giving into my flesh. Thank you sister, this really blessed me today!
been realizing that food and body image have become an idol for me; this vid was a huge blessing as to which steps to take in order to deal with those realizations and weakening the flesh. i believe God is calling us to wake up in this season as he has big plans with and through us. but he needs his people in the full armor of God; and part of that is the Word. amen!!
The intro had me….. this morning my scripture was Romans 8:11 The Spirit of God , that raised Jesus from the dead lives in you. I’ve see, read it, heard it so many times but today it hit a different way. I e really been meditating on that. The spirit, energy, power that raised Jesus from the dead…. Lives in me. It’s there. How do I access it? . How do I make it stronger ? What did Jesus do? All day the Lord has been leading me to answers and this video is one of the lessons. Thank you ma’am for posting this.
Delayed obedience is a REAL one for me. So glad I watched this after leaving it in the Watch later list. You were calling me out on everything in this video, but I needed it so I'm grateful
I really needed this I’m having such a hard time with reading and I’m 37 weeks pregnant & so tired I will fall asleep. This pregnancy made me fall deeply into the flesh sleeping eating repeat I didn’t realize how far I’ve fell from God and his presence :( I feel so empty
Pregnancy is a time for pause, I don’t think sleeping and eating is an issue. It’s what’s biologically required to grow your baby. You are divine. Just make sure to keep up with your values.
Your definitely speaking to me I deactivate instagram for 2months now but TikTok is one of my distractions lord forgive me I genuinely need to take a break
I pray in the name of Jesus that God will continue to nudge in your spirit in the times you should be spending with Him. I pray you give yourself grace as you strengthen your posture for Him and idols you’re trying to overcome, God claims victory already over this situation in the name of our mighty God, Jesus Christ I pray, AMEN! 🤍🤍
Yes. We do have to remove idols but a good conversation to have is understanding what an idol is and recognizing if you are making these things idols. I have some idols I can clearly point out that have to go. People. Social media and work for sure. Also for the newer followers if you enjoy a show or your favorite hobby it is ok to enjoy those things just make sure it's not getting in the way of you having your personal time with God.
I've been struggling with it all! God opened my eyes to it yesterday on how I was idolising my problems. I actually saw this video last week or earlier this week popping up but I felt too confronted to click on it. So the fact that I watched it today is God already working on me. I especially was touched by the part about it being a spiritual training/gym spending time with God. I always want to be able to do things at once 😅.
Procrastination- sleep -sleep- Have been my struggle tis year! I replace it with self-control, discipline, consistency and accountability in Jesus name , Amen!
I've been struggling with binge watching recap movies on TH-cam instead of studying. I thank God for deliverance and I look forward to swapping this habit with reading the word of God or watching Christian content like your channel that edifies me. Amen.
You have ministered to my soul sis ! I’ve been spending so much time idolizing relationships , friendships and just entertaining myself with things that were draining my spirit ! I’ve been aware of it but I’ve allowed laziness and procrastination to keep me in a cycle. Thank you for this ❤
Finding this video after making the decision to abandon some of my idols. It feels so uncomfortable to give some of it up, but I know I need to. I know the connection that I'm seeking is right on the other side of obedience. I'm just so grateful He is always right there waiting. 🙏
Amen idk what happened to me I used to put God first with no troubles now I’m struggling to wake up in the morning and by the time I wake up it’s later in the day and I need to get my day started so I tend to rush it but I want to get back to where I was. Thank you for this it was very much needed
God pointed this out to me and I swear it was like you were speaking straight to me 🙌🏻 I thank Jesus for this video because it’s exactly the thing I needed ❤
Sis this was so good! I literally started eating healthier and working out because I was being convicted by the food i was eating then I put this video on while I was cooking! God is so faithful
I thank you for your obedience in making this video because this absolutely did something in the spiritual realm for me. I asked go for answers on a difficult decision I have to make and he answered me clearly through you. Then later in the day I found the courage to open my Bible and even further confirmation two pages were folded that I don’t remember ever folding Isaiah 44:9 titled (idolatry is foolishness) - Isaiah 46. We serve a true and living God!!
Thank you. Your video convicted me to obey something God told me to do two weeks ago. I keep coming up with excuses to disobey. It will be hard and will require me to fully trust Him, and I can’t put it off any longer.
If something tugs on my spirit, my mind, it could be an opportunity God has paved out for me. So don’t delay! Not walking in obedience to God/focusing on Him will just delay His purpose over our lives. 💜 this really stuck out to me thank u!
Wow wow wow God wanted me to watch this video! I've been struggling reading the bible the past few weeks and been addicted to my phone watching shows thank you so much! I'm gonna be more obedient from now on. thank you God ❤
Idolizing Music and scenarios along with a relationship has been the hardest things to release myself from and fully surrender to God because I know how important it is to put God first in my life and I realize that I wasn’t in my word and haven’t been able to recognize Gods love Becuase I wasn’t growing my spirit
i put off watching this video for a pretty long time lol… tbh, when i first saw this i just knew i’d feel convicted when i watched it and i wasn’t ready for that. but i saved it to my watch later anyway. just finished watching. i felt a lot of peaceful vibes as soon as i clicked on it. while watching i felt inspired to read The Bible. I’m being vulnerable with God about everything these days. So, naturally I agreed with you on that. Thank you so much for sharing. I truly learned a lot about idols.
This was such an amazing video, thank you so much for sharing. I have definitely been struggling with doom scrolling and phone addiction. I’m feeling like this is confirmation that God has been speaking that I need to do a phone fast and get into His word all day tomorrow. God gave you an amazing gift in teaching 🥰🧡
The story of Martha and Mary came up in my church’s sermon Sunday and the topic of Jonah came up last week Sermon. This is God speaking to me ! I don’t believe in coincidences! Thank you Jesus 🙏🏾
I've been scrolling past this video everytime I came across it.... pretty much avoiding it coz i know this is what I'm going through. My Idols my phone, food and definitely money. I pray the Lord help me overcome this.
Well well… It’s very interesting how strong the desire for holiness. Then as every thing you mention happens and it’s another day. Lord have mercy 🙏 I am going to listen again. 💯
When I’m consuming more tv & social media than spending time with him, It’s almost impossible to get in that word! And I’ve come to realize that it’s bc there’s too much clutter. His words don’t penetrate bc there’s too much going on & we know he speaks in a whisper. Same when I’m stressed, worried or filled with anxiety. Today I watched this instead of baddies. I feel good 🥹
Wow this is me, I praise God that He guided me to this video. The distraction is so real with my kids and even my thoughts. I’m praying to hold my thoughts captive to Christ and also to walk in humility.
Had to pause the video to not delay in telling you this, this video came just at the right moment with exactly the words I needed to hear. I thank God for the ways He is using your talents and obedience to work and minister in the lives of all those watching.
I mean I have been struggling with all 3 for the past few months and after listening to your video, I realised that the delayed disobedience I was giving God was trickling down to my delayed obedience to my parents as well
The Jonah story resonated with me. God loves us so much that even when we disobey, He will break us/put us in the wilderness just so he can redirect us to the path He wants us to be on. Also, God loves the world so much that He will literally interrupt the lives of His chosen/prophets (in this case Jonah) so that He can save nations. Glory to God!
Thank you for this timely message Jahlana. These days I'm job searching and very exhausted. The first thing I do every morning is check my email and sometimes job boards before even praying. Never even, thought it to be idolatry. Lord, I'm sorry, please help me through this phase.
I usually reach for my phone in the morning cause my Bible app is on my phone and I check my Facebook page usually cause it always has a lot of uplifting/encouraging messages from Godly friends.
Wow, are you a teacher? I've never seen anyone break idols down this way before. Thank you for explaining it in this way. It really helps because I am a visual learner.
This video was right on time, thank you Lord for speaking to me at such a perfect time. Also girl you’re gorgeous and your skin is amazing. Just subscribed because I know that God isn’t done speaking through you ❤ plus I’m here for whatever other content you choose to share with us. 😊
This popped up in my newsfeed, and I believe it's a sign for me, especially since this video was released on my 30th birthday! 🥳 I know God heard my prayer for guidance in this new decade of my life.
Whewww 🥹 convictedddddd!!! I used to open my Bible app and get a word in, FIRST thing in the morning. Now I’ve put it off for weeks. Ugh 😣 my endless scrolling, constantly checking my apps… every app besides the Bible app. 💔 Thank you for this 🙏🏽
The fact that we just heard a sermon about Jonah last Sunday and here you are giving me confirmation of what the Lord wants from me. I’m so grateful for your obedience because yes, you just blessed so many other lives through it.
Thank you for obedience posting this video. I struggle with distraction in different forms. Thank you for the tip of starting small 10 minutes and building on that❤ I enjoyed the video. God bless you
34 Then he called the crowd to him along with his disciples and said: "Whoever wants to be my disciple must deny themselves and take up their cross and follow me. 35 For whoever wants to save their life will lose it, but whoever loses their life for me and for the gospel will save it. 36 What good is it for someone to gain the whole world, yet forfeit their soul? 37 Or what can anyone give in exchange for their soul? 38 If anyone is ashamed of me and my words in this adulterous and sinful generation, the Son of Man will be ashamed of them when he comes in his Father's glory with the holy angels." - Mark 8:34-38
Girl thank you so much for this video!! God really used you to speak to me and so many others! I’m new in walking with Christ and I was so confused as to what having idols look like and how to put him first in everything and you definitely gave me clarity! I pray that God continues to uses you sister 🩷🩷
Thank you Jesus. Not only did this messege SPEAK TO ME, GOD SPOKE TO ME. I also loved your glasses and God heard in my thoughts that i wanted it lol. God loves us and knows exactly what we need. Im going to just be vunerable and true with him this week. Time to wake up and try again.
It’s so funny cause I’ve never seen you before. I was just getting ready to turn off TH-cam b/c I’m often distracted and even though I’m usually watching Christian content. Then…this very video pops up of the exact thing I’ve been struggling with.🙏🏾
I’m struggling with discipline so much in this season, on top of battling postpartum depression I know better but having a hard time choosing to do better. I love your page this is my first time and I’m definitely subscribing. Please pray for me and these idols I picked up with out God and cling to still with him. Lord please help me to believe I am free ..
Procrastination - Laziness - sleep - gluttony- May the Lord remove all this and replace it with self-control, discipline, and consistency, in the name of Jesus .
Same your not alone
Me too sister. Amen.
I am struggling with the same but I am praying that God deliver us from all these negative habits and replace it with positive habits.
Ameeen
Let’s add the phone and internet to that too
Last night I finished 2 Samuel and there is a line where David says, "I don't want to burn an offering to God that cost me nothing." and it clicked that we MUST sacrifice/pay in order to praise God. Not because it's tick for tac but because we love Him so much that we don't want to give Him the worthless. Our time is one of our most precious things and spending time with God (and not on our flesh) is one of the highest costs we can pay to praise HIM!
Thank you for this🥺🙌
Loveee this!
Amen
Amen!
Lets also remember that it is proportional to what we have or can offer, like the woman who only had one coin, God knows what things we struggle with ❤️
The fact that I tried to scroll past this video and it played anyway 😩 thank you Holy Spirit! 🙌🏾
God is so good! Glad you took the time to watch it and let it serve you! God bless you 🤍 & thank you for watching!
😂😂😂
ive tried to do that to a few videos and theyve auto played anyways after a video i chose, the lord always knows just what we need to hear
The fact that it randomly selected cos Im currently on an obedience fast and well😅 I needed this video that's all I'm saying
Not in a condemning way but in a CONVICTING way 💓
I have been in a place of idolizing marriage. I wanted it so badly that all I prayed about was that. I idolized Gods promises. I began to feel overwhelmed, impatient, and empty. I haven't been opening my Bible as much. I've been stagnant attempting to go on a vacation to stop the feeling of boredom and emptiness. I was chasing my idols. I hate to admit marriage is an idol. Although it's beautiful, and I think of Hannah with her petitions. But God timing is his timing. And I admit I've been so upset because it's not happening in my timing. I lost sight of the beautiful gift of evangelism he gave me.
It's time to get back to the Fathers heart. And humble myself. I'm guilty with being on my phone before even praying or opening my Bible.
❤”Your Maker is your husband” ❤️
@melissaleonard1168 Yes amen thank you!
Sooo transparent !!! Well I’m Praying God answers this prayer for you in HIS timing ❤ just trust that he is in control and he has not forgotten about you 🫂
Hey sister in Christ. I've been having the same problems as well. And my heart goes out to you and people who are also struggling with this. I've been idolizing marriage but I'm a guy so I'm looking for a wife. I've gotten in to a mindset that no matter where I went I would l see a woman and wonder is she my wife? I began to get anxious wondering if it would ever happen. Especailly since we're not promised a spouse. I would get jealous of people especially good looking people who would have no problems getting married. It brought me joy when reading about Hannahs strong desire for a son and that's what caught me when reading your comment. Hannah wanted it desperately but she wasn't called an idol. It made me wonder but since so many Christians are saying it is, I guess it is. Talking to people who are going through this is really helping me. Even more than the people who are delivered from it and telling me to stop making an idol out of marriage. I've been hearing it so much that I've been asking God to take it away from me. And I'm ashamed to say it but I was actually angry with God because of it. Why would God give me this strong desire and withhold the only thing I'm able to express it away from me. I thought I was doing something wrong and I beat my self up because I thought I was too much of a sinner and wasnt' perfect enough to get a spouse. Its like the whole point of having sexual desires is so you can practice self control. I really hurt my heart thinking this and I hope it to not be the case. As I'm typing this my desire hasn't gone down much. As you can tell I am really passionate about this topic because I've been dealing with it for so long and whats a lot sadder is that I am only 19. I going to keep praying and keep on trying to trust God tho.
@awesomegermany9586 Hi there, my brother! First, I empathize with you. It is admirable at your age to desire a wife and not a gf. My greatest advice is to continually surrender this desire to Jesus. Don't ask Him to take it away from you because He placed it there for a reason. Because He will fulfill it. My challenge for you is to pray for your future wife. Get a journal and pray for her, pray for her faith, her relationship with the Lord, to be a great wife or mom, and a great servant. Once you shift your thoughts of desiring her to prayer, you will see how God will move exponentially with this as you activate your faith.
Yes, good things can become idols. Money is good but can be idol, work can be an idol, school, person, etc. But as for Hannah's petitions she desired a child so desperately but what shifted was when she said God if you give me a son I'll give him to you for the rest of his life to serve you. This is where it shifted and CHANGED, God heard her prayer. It no longer became an idol to her but she surrendered it. She surrendered by basically giving her desire to God. Her prayer went from God give me a son to God give me a son that will serve you forever. You see how that works?
Ultimately marriage is about giving glory to God. It's to glorify the Father. Pray for your Kingdom Wife. And watch God move on your behalf.
As a word of encouragement, she's coming. Keep your eyes on Jesus. Don't worry about who or if that's her. God will make it so PLAIN and CLEAR you will not be able to deny it.
Jesus loves you so much!!!! In the meantime, find out what God has called you to do. Get busy working in the field for the Kingdom.
My idol is TH-cam 😢. I deactivated all other forms of social media. I didn't really consider TH-cam to be a problem. Now I realize I just traded one addiction for another but this is the only place I get spiritual insight since I'm not in church
Same
Me too definitely
Mine may be fear of the dark, TH-cam Bible cartoons, Gluttony, kid cartoons, animes, the perfect body image
Download what would want to watch, so you can have a little more control over TH-cam
Same… and it sucks because it is also how I work out and watch sermons… but it is an idol
Right now as of this moment God called me to break up with my boyfriend of 4 years because hes is drawing me away from the Lord and im called to be obedient. I asked God for strength and a word from him and i went on youtube and this was the first video to pop up. Thank you for encouraging me. God used you and hit the nail right on the head. I dont want to delay him being saved because of my disobedience. Pray for me🤍
Hello, I will be praying for you. God called me out of my 4 yr relationship two yrs ago and it is by His strength I walked away. ❤
Abba will restore you. Blessings to you!
@@ChosenNLovedbyJesus thank you for making me feel like im not alone and God’s glory is evident. Youre a living testimony🩷
Praying for you! I know that’s incredibly hard and there will be pain as you grieve your relationship….but so much better in the Lord is to come ❤ He will honor your obedience!
Omg this is exactly how I’m feeling right now 😢 I don’t have the courage to end the relationship of 5 yrs it’s so hard he has been nothing but good to me but he draws me away from God and he doesn’t want to practice celibacy😔
That's wild Iol
My struggles/idols are: scrolling through social media, sleeping and fatigue..i trust God for His deliverance
That part - "we cannot take our flesh when we die. So why would you try to feed your flesh when your spirit is what matters spiritually?" Lord help me to always remember this quote and prioritize my spirit over flesh.
August 1 I made the first step with turning off my Tik Tok and Instagram and Facebook because the amount of hours I would waste was ridiculous. Spending all day on the apps then being too tired to read my Bible. This message was very much needed.
The fact I’ve been rewatching Love Island seasons for the past 2 months and putting off praying and worshipping and now coming across this video is insane 😭 I’m sorry God
Turns out watching TH-cam has become an idol for me. And I have been struggling with all you spoke on in this video, delayed obedience, struggles to open the Word of God, spending time in prayer. I believe the Lord sent this video to help me snap out of where I have been. Thank you for your obedience. Blessings and favor upon you and your ministry.
I just came home from running errands and came across this video. Within my feed. My flesh didn’t want me to click on this video. I’m so happy that I watched it through the whole episode. God has a way of working on a person to get their attention. He knows exactly what my soul needs. Thank you for sharing this with us. I just had to subscribe after watching.
Didn’t want to click on this video, because I know I have idols.. really glad I did ❤
This was for me I have been going through so much warfare the Devil is in my head and tries to make me think negatively. I cannot pray or read my bible as I should and its exhausting. Almost 3 years ever since I got baptised pray for me saints.
Me too, it's so hard
Just prayed for you both to strengthen your spirit ❤
I thought I was alone going through such ,praying for you Sis
@@mayenziwemayncube6155 it's so hard at times to even focus but keep pushing through my sister. I was just praying and spending time with God and just spoke about this and the saw your comment. He is confirming that it's only for a while and the soldiers of God gets the hardest fights x
@@rush8823 very but keep pushing it's only for a time sister in Christ.
This is helpful! My idols have been videogames, internet apps, social media, p*rn, and many more! Please pray for me to be better at obeying God's will in my life! So far I've deleted certain apps and have been in constant study and prayer, but there's so much more to do. Thanks for the video, God bless!
I’ll pray for you :)
I will add you to my prayer
Realizing idols can be a (person, place, or thing) good or bad is heartbreaking to know I let something take the place of God, I need to exercise faith to put God First (acknowledge God) God I See You and He Sees You
You answered my question why God was far away thank you holy spirit, I'm starting I have lot of idols being jobless stressed about money my kids and my phone,I will come back to give my testimony 😔
I genuinely felt the Holy Spirit was speaking through you to me. Especially when you mentioned Love Island lol. This is exactly what I’m going through. All 3 topics I’m dealing with. Literally an on time word! Now I just feel the need to speak to God about this in the secret place and repent. Thank you so much for this video 💕🙌🏾
ALL GLORY TO GOD!!! This is why I’m here!! it warms my heart so much to know God directed you and gave you revelation through this video. What a blessing! I’m praying over you lovely as I had to grow through these topics as well, God bless you beautiful and thank you for watching and listening, know that God will direct and guide you. 🤍😭😭
@@Jahlana thank you for your kind words. A lot of your videos always encourage me but this one was so strong in the sense that word for word of what you said was so on point and on time for what I’m dealing with that I knew easily it’s the Holy Spirit. Continue to be obedient to God with your videos. You’re helping more people than you know. 😊💕
Same
I'm really struggling with starving my idols, but God has a plan!
This video is so timely. Doom scrolling, binge watching, social media, phone or laptop are MAJOR idols. Thank you for bringing up opening your Bible being a major struggle. This video is exactly what I needed to hear right now and speaks to my situation. I know I am not alone. THANK YOU for making this video. God Bless You, Sister!
Me tooo!!! We are not alone and this video has some at such a good time, as I was about to go and binge watch and scroll😭 This is truly a reminder that we need to redirect our time to God
This is straight obedience. The LORD, brought me to this scripture and the way He was discipling me through the text I went back this morning.
I’ve been disobedient and I’ve made an idol somewhere… Time to starve them out! Thanks for the confirmation!
My idols are movies and social media. Omg!! And I have been talking to myself about this because somehow God has been trying to get my attention on this… then boom this video. Thank you Jesus!❤
It’s my first time here and I think the Holy Spirit sent me here ❤
Delayed obedience. Sturggling to step out on faith when i know what i need to do but dont see how it can work out. Especially in job hunting and needing money for bills. Also scared to go back to school after previously dropping out. Dont want to repeat my past mistakes. Not to mention doom scrolling more lately and just stifgling to journal and pray and read the word. May God help me.
The Martha story hit home for me! I be wanting to be perfect, to pray perfect, read the Bible overly moved, etc.
& yesss that tugggg is real!!
Thank you for this video. I started asking God for confirmation for even the smallest things like what to wear, and it was nice at first, but then it started to become compulsive and I felt like a demon had taken over what I had believed to be the direction of God, it sucked out my joy and peace and made me hate doing even the most mundane things because I would be scared of doing something that offends God. Now, I ask for the grace to handle basic decisions myself and let God do the big thinking, because I belive that's why He gave us a brain
Praying that all those believers struggling with sin find peace in Jesus’s name 🙏🏾
These are topics I believe every christian has dealt with or might still be dealing with (regardless of if you're a "baby" christian or you've been a christian all your life). I give God all the glory for urging youto speak on these topics.🙏
THIS!! I love that you mentioned this because it’s true! These topics apply to anyone. Thank you SO much for watching, God bless you 🙏🏽
I prayed this morning to God to help me make sure I’m making the right decision to leave my job. He has blessed me so much in the last couple of months and I’m currently trying to be better at listening to what he tells me and he has spoken through you to me. I have put this job over everything. Over God, over myself, my health, my family, my wellbeing. Today I finally understand his commandment of not idolizing. I finally see Jesus. I’ve been in blinded for so long. Thank you Jesus thank you God for being patient with me and blessing me although I’m undeserving. All Glory to God!
I’ve been ignoring & grieving the holy spirit so much that I can’t feel it anymore, and I can actively feel God softening my heart from stone to flesh again, it hurts & i just want to be with him w/o all this stuff being in the way but i know it’s behind my hard decisions that that will happen. I’m not afraid, just scared of the pain but I will keep running towards him & drop everything
i struggle w/ so many things at 22 yo from smoking weed to premarital sex & i don’t want to continue living in the deceived way. I hate being lied to & I just want to be at peace w/ my Father. I see your face shining down on me Father, I want to know you. Please don’t ever leave my side
sis this is so good 😭 i definitely feel convicted. i was so on fire for God and ever since i had my baby it has been SO HARD to read, pray and worship the way i used to. i get so exhausted and overstimulated from caring for my baby all day that when he finally goes to bed instead of reading the word i watch tv 😭 i feel so lost when reading the word, i never know what to read or where to begin when i used to bible study and journal so much before! you’re so right about the gym analogy! so grateful this video popped up on my feed!!!
Too real!!
thank you so much sis, lately I've been finding it hard to open up my bible or to be in the presence of God. life has not been going the way I wanted it to and it just got me asking so much questions. Social media has been a big distraction for me too ! But today God reminded me through you about being obedient ! May God bless you & May God continue using you, Continue shining !
It can be difficult sister, I totally understand. I love how God uses us to remind each other. He’s smiling at you now for the awareness you have to correct your posture! I pray for you that you will claim victory over the idol of social media and that you will extend love to yourself from God as you take the time to overcome this. God loves you and He is doing amazing work in you. God bless you and thank you so much for watching pretty! 🤍
God always reproves those he love. This message was straight from heaven!! Thanks for your obedience to God
this video came right on time. i felt like i was going backwards, and not allowing myself to be moved by God, and wondered why my life felt like it was in a standstill. now i know that God led me here and for me to understand that idols were getting in the way of me spending time with Him, which in terms meant that i had trouble opening my word and then having delayed obedience in the things He wanted me to do. thank you for making this video!
I’m struggling with the aftermath of breaking my 2 yr abstinence that resulted in entering in motherhood and single motherhood at that 🥺 I’m scared because I got my daughter in disobedience that I’m not going to be able to remain her care taker. My life has turned upside down since breaking my abstinence. Bless The Lord on my Behalf
Girl, God remains God! He has gone before you. I understand that you’re healing from the consequences, but please don’t let that shield you from seeing God’s love that no one and nothing can separate from you. Let this also encourage you to see your little baby as a blessing amidst everything🫂❤
Praying to you
Baby girl God loves you and still wants and values you! Repent and forgive yourself. God can and will parent with you! Ask me how I know! Invite Him into that space with you. You are not alone! 🫶🏾❤
God be with you
God will help you to steward over your baby! Keep trusting Him and drawing near to Him❤️
I had been making quite good progress with regular Bible study and idol starving (you’re so right, the more you do it the more you want to do it) UNTIL the day I committed to the deadline of reading the entire Bible before my 31st birthday (a little under 6 months, totally doable, but still I gotta stay on top of it obviously). That day onward I have been noticing it is harder and harder to make time for the word. My idols have been rearing their ugly heads (scrolling, online shopping, vapid TH-cam videos) and it’s just crazy how obvious it is that that’s the enemy at work. I’ve had this video in my watch later for about a week at this point because I know darn well I got idols and I’ve just been delaying obedience. No more. There’s nothing more important. The verse that I cling to in moments of weakness is Psalm 119:37 “Turn my eyes from looking at worthless things; and give me life in your ways.”
I kid you not the Lord sent me this video today. I have been struggling so much with these specific issues recently, delaying obedience and avoiding time with God out of fear of what he’s going to tell me next. And ofc to distract myself from avoiding Him I’ve been giving into my flesh. Thank you sister, this really blessed me today!
been realizing that food and body image have become an idol for me; this vid was a huge blessing as to which steps to take in order to deal with those realizations and weakening the flesh. i believe God is calling us to wake up in this season as he has big plans with and through us. but he needs his people in the full armor of God; and part of that is the Word. amen!!
The word idols been on my heart for 6 months! The conviction from this video heavvyy
I have struggled with delayed disobedience for a while . And now I know , thank you for clarity .Awesome video glory to God~🩷👏🏽🙌🏽
The intro had me….. this morning my scripture was Romans 8:11 The Spirit of God , that raised Jesus from the dead lives in you. I’ve see, read it, heard it so many times but today it hit a different way. I e really been meditating on that. The spirit, energy, power that raised Jesus from the dead…. Lives in me.
It’s there. How do I access it? . How do I make it stronger ? What did Jesus do? All day the Lord has been leading me to answers and this video is one of the lessons. Thank you ma’am for posting this.
Thank you for your obedience on filming this video! It had reached me, and I received the word you spoke. Thank you!
All glory to God!!! How beautiful to hear that, God bless you sister and may you feel Gods guidance and love in Jesus name, Amen! 🤍🥹
Delayed obedience is a REAL one for me. So glad I watched this after leaving it in the Watch later list. You were calling me out on everything in this video, but I needed it so I'm grateful
I really needed this I’m having such a hard time with reading and I’m 37 weeks pregnant & so tired I will fall asleep. This pregnancy made me fall deeply into the flesh sleeping eating repeat I didn’t realize how far I’ve fell from God and his presence :( I feel so empty
Pregnancy is a time for pause, I don’t think sleeping and eating is an issue. It’s what’s biologically required to grow your baby. You are divine. Just make sure to keep up with your values.
Your definitely speaking to me I deactivate instagram for 2months now but TikTok is one of my distractions lord forgive me I genuinely need to take a break
I pray in the name of Jesus that God will continue to nudge in your spirit in the times you should be spending with Him. I pray you give yourself grace as you strengthen your posture for Him and idols you’re trying to overcome, God claims victory already over this situation in the name of our mighty God, Jesus Christ I pray, AMEN! 🤍🤍

Yes. We do have to remove idols but a good conversation to have is understanding what an idol is and recognizing if you are making these things idols. I have some idols I can clearly point out that have to go. People. Social media and work for sure. Also for the newer followers if you enjoy a show or your favorite hobby it is ok to enjoy those things just make sure it's not getting in the way of you having your personal time with God.
I've been struggling with it all! God opened my eyes to it yesterday on how I was idolising my problems. I actually saw this video last week or earlier this week popping up but I felt too confronted to click on it. So the fact that I watched it today is God already working on me. I especially was touched by the part about it being a spiritual training/gym spending time with God. I always want to be able to do things at once 😅.
Procrastination- sleep -sleep- Have been my struggle tis year! I replace it with self-control, discipline, consistency and accountability in Jesus name , Amen!
I've been struggling with binge watching recap movies on TH-cam instead of studying. I thank God for deliverance and I look forward to swapping this habit with reading the word of God or watching Christian content like your channel that edifies me. Amen.
This warms my heart to hear! I’m so thankful that you allowed God to transform you and make time for Him! Thank you for sharing 🤍
You have ministered to my soul sis ! I’ve been spending so much time idolizing relationships , friendships and just entertaining myself with things that were draining my spirit ! I’ve been aware of it but I’ve allowed laziness and procrastination to keep me in a cycle. Thank you for this ❤
Yep, just by looking at the comments I can see I'm not alone. Thank you for making this video because it was and still is needed for a lot of people.
The projector metaphor is absolutely beautiful and powerful!!
I don't remember allowing you to put a very accurate description about me in the video title this was so aimed at me thank you God
She's taking aim at all of us...smh
Finding this video after making the decision to abandon some of my idols. It feels so uncomfortable to give some of it up, but I know I need to. I know the connection that I'm seeking is right on the other side of obedience. I'm just so grateful He is always right there waiting. 🙏
This was for me! ESPECIALLY delayed obedience!!
Amen idk what happened to me I used to put God first with no troubles now I’m struggling to wake up in the morning and by the time I wake up it’s later in the day and I need to get my day started so I tend to rush it but I want to get back to where I was. Thank you for this it was very much needed
God pointed this out to me and I swear it was like you were speaking straight to me 🙌🏻 I thank Jesus for this video because it’s exactly the thing I needed ❤
Sis this was so good! I literally started eating healthier and working out because I was being convicted by the food i was eating then I put this video on while I was cooking! God is so faithful
I thank you for your obedience in making this video because this absolutely did something in the spiritual realm for me. I asked go for answers on a difficult decision I have to make and he answered me clearly through you. Then later in the day I found the courage to open my Bible and even further confirmation two pages were folded that I don’t remember ever folding Isaiah 44:9 titled (idolatry is foolishness) - Isaiah 46. We serve a true and living God!!
Thank you. Your video convicted me to obey something God told me to do two weeks ago. I keep coming up with excuses to disobey. It will be hard and will require me to fully trust Him, and I can’t put it off any longer.
If something tugs on my spirit, my mind, it could be an opportunity God has paved out for me. So don’t delay! Not walking in obedience to God/focusing on Him will just delay His purpose over our lives. 💜 this really stuck out to me thank u!
Immediately I started watching this video, I felt a calmness in my Spirit.
Wow wow wow God wanted me to watch this video! I've been struggling reading the bible the past few weeks and been addicted to my phone watching shows thank you so much! I'm gonna be more obedient from now on. thank you God ❤
Idolizing Music and scenarios along with a relationship has been the hardest things to release myself from and fully surrender to God because I know how important it is to put God first in my life and I realize that I wasn’t in my word and haven’t been able to recognize Gods love Becuase I wasn’t growing my spirit
i put off watching this video for a pretty long time lol… tbh, when i first saw this i just knew i’d feel convicted when i watched it and i wasn’t ready for that. but i saved it to my watch later anyway. just finished watching. i felt a lot of peaceful vibes as soon as i clicked on it. while watching i felt inspired to read The Bible. I’m being vulnerable with God about everything these days. So, naturally I agreed with you on that. Thank you so much for sharing. I truly learned a lot about idols.
This was such an amazing video, thank you so much for sharing. I have definitely been struggling with doom scrolling and phone addiction. I’m feeling like this is confirmation that God has been speaking that I need to do a phone fast and get into His word all day tomorrow. God gave you an amazing gift in teaching 🥰🧡
The story of Martha and Mary came up in my church’s sermon Sunday and the topic of Jonah came up last week Sermon. This is God speaking to me ! I don’t believe in coincidences! Thank you Jesus 🙏🏾
I've been scrolling past this video everytime I came across it.... pretty much avoiding it coz i know this is what I'm going through. My Idols my phone, food and definitely money. I pray the Lord help me overcome this.
Hallelujah, sister! Preach the good Word of God!
Well well… It’s very interesting how strong the desire for holiness. Then as every thing you mention happens and it’s another day. Lord have mercy 🙏 I am going to listen again. 💯
😢🥹😔😭you are my divine Intervention🙏🏽 Glory to God for you Jhalana🥰🙏🏽🙏🏽🙏🏽 10/03/2024 divine intervention 🙏🏽
I honestly felt like I was on FaceTime with you watching this! This video was made for me!! This was on time!
Thank you for using your spiritual gift ❤
Thank you God for using me!! Thank you sister for your kind words, God bless you!! 🤍🤍
So beautiful. He deserves our “first fruits”🙌🏾
When I’m consuming more tv & social media than spending time with him, It’s almost impossible to get in that word! And I’ve come to realize that it’s bc there’s too much clutter. His words don’t penetrate bc there’s too much going on & we know he speaks in a whisper. Same when I’m stressed, worried or filled with anxiety. Today I watched this instead of baddies. I feel good 🥹
Wow this is me, I praise God that He guided me to this video. The distraction is so real with my kids and even my thoughts. I’m praying to hold my thoughts captive to Christ and also to walk in humility.
Had to pause the video to not delay in telling you this, this video came just at the right moment with exactly the words I needed to hear. I thank God for the ways He is using your talents and obedience to work and minister in the lives of all those watching.
I mean I have been struggling with all 3 for the past few months and after listening to your video, I realised that the delayed disobedience I was giving God was trickling down to my delayed obedience to my parents as well
Ive been struggling to commit to seeing this fast through...delayed obedience is in full affect. Prayers for success are appreciated!
The Jonah story resonated with me. God loves us so much that even when we disobey, He will break us/put us in the wilderness just so he can redirect us to the path He wants us to be on.
Also, God loves the world so much that He will literally interrupt the lives of His chosen/prophets (in this case Jonah) so that He can save nations.
Glory to God!
Thank you for this timely message Jahlana. These days I'm job searching and very exhausted. The first thing I do every morning is check my email and sometimes job boards before even praying. Never even, thought it to be idolatry. Lord, I'm sorry, please help me through this phase.
Thank you for this message! I needed this! I now how renewed motivation! May God continue to bless you.❤
I usually reach for my phone in the morning cause my Bible app is on my phone and I check my Facebook page usually cause it always has a lot of uplifting/encouraging messages from Godly friends.
Amen sister!! Beautiful H.S. message
Thank you for watching brother! God bless 🙏🏽
Great Word Chica 🤍 “Delayed Obedience is disobedience” 🌸
Wow, are you a teacher? I've never seen anyone break idols down this way before. Thank you for explaining it in this way. It really helps because I am a visual learner.
“Your problems can be your idols” spoke to me, thank you!
This video was right on time, thank you Lord for speaking to me at such a perfect time. Also girl you’re gorgeous and your skin is amazing. Just subscribed because I know that God isn’t done speaking through you ❤ plus I’m here for whatever other content you choose to share with us. 😊
This popped up in my newsfeed, and I believe it's a sign for me, especially since this video was released on my 30th birthday! 🥳 I know God heard my prayer for guidance in this new decade of my life.
Whewww 🥹 convictedddddd!!!
I used to open my Bible app and get a word in, FIRST thing in the morning. Now I’ve put it off for weeks. Ugh 😣 my endless scrolling, constantly checking my apps… every app besides the Bible app. 💔
Thank you for this 🙏🏽
The fact that we just heard a sermon about Jonah last Sunday and here you are giving me confirmation of what the Lord wants from me. I’m so grateful for your obedience because yes, you just blessed so many other lives through it.
Thank you for obedience posting this video. I struggle with distraction in different forms. Thank you for the tip of starting small 10 minutes and building on that❤ I enjoyed the video. God bless you
This was so desparartely needed. I surrender my time to God for him to transform my life... denying the flesh and feeding your spirit.
@Jahlana what an absolutely on time Word. You literally just talked about my last 3 weeks. 🙏🏽Glory to Jesus
34 Then he called the crowd to him along with his disciples and said: "Whoever wants to be my disciple must deny themselves and take up their cross and follow me. 35 For whoever wants to save their life will lose it, but whoever loses their life for me and for the gospel will save it. 36 What good is it for someone to gain the whole world, yet forfeit their soul? 37 Or what can anyone give in exchange for their soul? 38 If anyone is ashamed of me and my words in this adulterous and sinful generation, the Son of Man will be ashamed of them when he comes in his Father's glory with the holy angels." - Mark 8:34-38
Girl thank you so much for this video!! God really used you to speak to me and so many others! I’m new in walking with Christ and I was so confused as to what having idols look like and how to put him first in everything and you definitely gave me clarity! I pray that God continues to uses you sister 🩷🩷
Thank you Jesus. Not only did this messege SPEAK TO ME, GOD SPOKE TO ME. I also loved your glasses and God heard in my thoughts that i wanted it lol. God loves us and knows exactly what we need. Im going to just be vunerable and true with him this week. Time to wake up and try again.
It’s so funny cause I’ve never seen you before. I was just getting ready to turn off TH-cam b/c I’m often distracted and even though I’m usually watching Christian content. Then…this very video pops up of the exact thing I’ve been struggling with.🙏🏾
I’m struggling with discipline so much in this season, on top of battling postpartum depression I know better but having a hard time choosing to do better. I love your page this is my first time and I’m definitely subscribing. Please pray for me and these idols I picked up with out God and cling to still with him. Lord please help me to believe I am free ..
