This has made me feel a lot less alone, as a Christian who has cptsd and is just now beginning to heal at the age of 34. Thank you for sharing your testimony!
@@RileyedI used to pride myself not having to take meds for panic attacks and subsequent lingering anxiety. On two separate occasions the Lord delivered me. A few months ago, I had another major episode that lasted for weeks. During that time I had victories and defeats in getting back to "normal". Those cycles took a toll on my wife... and me. I decided to see a doctor. She prescribed Lexapro. It helped me immediately. After a few months I accidentally missed daily doses and felt okay without it. Almost two months later I am still med free, but I still have it just in case. Anxiety and fear do have demonic spiritual roots and must be dealt with by God's spiritual gardening methods of sowing, watering, and pruning by the Word and prayer. However, we are also mental and physical beings that can benefit from God-inspired, man-made adjuncts, until such a time we can embrace His way totally.
Thank you for your testimony brother. I have PTSD, scitzoaffective disorder, depression and OCD. My mother was an alcoholic and a drug addict and married a guy who sexually abused me growing up so I know what he's going through. God has helped me too but there's more work to be done.
Thank you for sharing your story, it will help many. God bless you for doing the work to clear your heart and reach the Lord. So much was out of your control!
Many were not delivered from childhood traumas before they minister unto others, that is why we must pray for our pastors so that the enemy can’t take them out before their time! We must treat our pastors with love & care! I pray this pastor still preach on the streets to win lost souls for the Kingdom of God till he go meet the Lord on the street if he is not preaching in churches as he said he retired !
Thanks so much for this video. My son Jesse has C Ptsd and just learned about it the year before he passed last year in November 2022. My son had got sick from black mold plus C PTSD. He took his own life. I prayed and asked the Lord to heal him as I seen him getting sick. May more people know about this and seek the Lord to help. Please pray for me as my son Jesse's 1 year remembrance approaches on November 5, 2023. May the Lord help me as I miss him so much.
I will be praying for your strength and healing. May I suggest the book Victory over Grief & Sorrow by Nancy Dufresne. This book has truly been a great blessing for me. I love you sister! Jesus the healer will heal your soul!!
Please forgive him. I’ve been there and the pain is so dire we feel the only way to stop is to stop life. You can’t shut off your thoughts and the torture us to the point that we just was peace and rest and for the pain to go away. I’ve been there many times as I was sexually abused beginning at age 5! There were times I never wanted to wake up and have to go through one more day of fighting the thoughts and what I now know as demons speaking to me. They torture you until you just can’t take it anymore. Please again, forgive him. No one takes their life unless they’re so tired of the pain that just can’t take it. Even being saved, spiritual warfare is hard and terrifying and exhausting. May the Lord bless you and keep you and hold you in comfort and I’m so sorry. I hope this might explain why. He is in peace now. 🙏❤️
I got PTSD as a child. I heard & saw demons. My dad showed my sister’s & myself porn, I was only 5. At night I heard chains & the door knob trying to open. I didn’t sleep much at night. My life until I was 23 was nothing but sexual abuse, kidnapped & being kicked out of a running car. While I was being abused I would look for an escape, so now at 58 when I don’t feel safe I look for a way out. I’m not on meds & I’m not against them. What works for me is daily listening to God’s word & I soak my brain in God’s truth all night long. I’m getting the truth into my subconscious as I sleep. I sleep great now & occasionally I have an episode. Another thing that works is desensitizing myself to the things that once caused me triggers. God has done a work in me! I can now live alone without fear, but I’m smart enough to have an alarm system & gun by my pillow. I believe that God has blessed me abundantly bcz He sees me & I love Him more than anything in my life!
So sad for what happened to you. I dont take meds either. I have dogs and they help me get out for walks. I listen to SOAKSTREAM on TH-cam. Christian bible scripture in soft soothing music. So healing. I play it softly all night so scripture goes into the atmosphere. Soaking in the truth and re-newing my mind to think Gods thoughts. You are loved. Jesus died to save us. Psalms 34:18 The Lord is near to those who have a broken heart, And saves such as have a contrite spirit. 19 Many are the afflictions of the righteous, But the Lord delivers him out of them all. 20 He guards all his bones; Not one of them is broken.
I'm 28 and it took me getting into a relationship for God to expose my brokenness. I honestly had no idea how insecure I really am. As men we suppress emotional hurt to meet the expectations of others. But we need to be true to ourselves and let God into those struggles
The relationship didn't work out but God used it to show me my brokenness and exposed me to deliverance and inner healing processes that God wants to work in my life. I'm now seeking out help to allow God to mend that brokenness
This truly ministered unto me and helped me see and understand the process of what the Lord has been and done in my life to restore and heal my soul. Glory to God for this dear precious brother in Christ. Thank you for sharing your beautiful testimony. This also spoke to me. I heard the Lord telling me that's how I should talk to my sweet three young sons. I delight in you. You are safe. You are loved always, I am so proud of you. Etc.. I do so already but more. I want my sons to look back and hear the Lord through me reminding them how loved they are. I cherished and thank my God he saved a wretch like before so that I could be a mother and love them with the love of Christ. Makes me sad how many lost people are hurting so many children. This world needs Jesus!! The greatest news truly is the Gospel!!
Wow this must be God...😢😢 I have PTSD and the symptoms have driven me crazy. I can't have friends, can't relate with my kids. I must follow this mans guidance 😢😢😢.He must understand and be reasonable dealing with people like me. I am a believer in Jesus Christ as the Son of God and in my 50s. Thank you 🙏
You are not alone. You are loved. You are not weird. You are a human being who has been created by GOD. May the LORD LOVE YOU TO LIFE IN JESUS MIGHTY NAME AMEN.
I am so saddened for what you have just written. It is God reaching out to you, believe that. Jesus loves you so much. He can and wants to heal you mentally, physically and spiritually. Find a good church. And a Christian counselor. Pray and let the Lord lead and guide you. Prayers for you. ❤️❤️🙏🙏
@@algut2376you need to educate yourself on the complexities of trauma. God often delivers through the healing of that trauma which can be a step by step process, with Him, not running to a deliverance ministry to have demons cast out
I did not think I would connect to his story so much, we are quite different, and the childhood trauma is not the same, but I connected to his story more than anyone I have heard thus far on this channel. The LORD used him to say very specific things to encourage me on this painful and difficult journey to healing. Father, please continue the work in brother. Tim's life, and may he fulfill Your purpose for him for Your glory, in Jesus' name, Amen.
He's Not Lying, Because I Had PTSD and other things to. But I was Healed From All That. All We have to do is Follow Jesus. Thank U Father Jehovah and Thank U Jesus 🙏🏽🙏🏽🙏🏽🙏🏽
@@stars19735FYI you tube may block any comment that's helpful. Jesus can delivery you from anything! It may not be pretty in the beginning because a sinners truth is ugly. But we are all sinners and the Lord is waiting for you to ask him for help WHOLEHEARTEDLY!!
Blessing!! I have same experience, but for me it wasnt easy fix.. It toke me time, I seemed Lord but I was selfish, living in sin and so I was using drugs, alcohol to cope my trauma... I fully repented, cried out and he finally came to me and lift me and filled me with Holy Spirit and I feel joy and peace most of the days, I keep seeking him daily and talking o him like to my Father, I never had one, HE IS MY FATHER NOW
@@partlysimpson5154Stories like yours cheer my heart so much. The Lord found me 22 years ago in such a desperate mess. He is so patient and gracious. Peace and grace to you
@@partlysimpson5154 It's Not easy for any of us But once you keep going and don't give up, The Reward is So Big and Great. We just have to take one day at a time. We have bad days, when we do just pick the Bible up and Always Pray. I wish you well my Brother 🙏🏽🙏🏽🙏🏽🙏🏽
Totally relating about antidepressants and numbness. Had exact same experience, was able to overcome after meeting and seeking Christ. God is our great physician, follow the directions he leads you into in dealing with symptoms. Get into His Word, pray and believe for His healing, whatever it takes. Victory awaits ..
You're so reflective & calm, it was very easy to listen to you, you overcame so much with great patience, the Lord told me 30 yrs ago not take take any drugs precribed or otherwise, they're a doorway to demonic activity, he delivered me overnight of an 11 yr addiction to pain killers sleeping tablets & valium,
Jesus loves us all, He cares about you and wants you to have faith in him in everything you do. All you have to do is let go and let Jesus take the wheel. The healing will happen quickly after that. God bless you.
Thank you so much for sharing as a 44 year old women I’m going through this very thing with cptsd. I ran and buried this down for so long. The Lord has brought it to the surface and has given me the courage to face the trauma and heal. He is a good good father that loves his children to leave them broken. Your testimony has helped me to not feel so alone and isolated in this season of my life. Im truely grateful to you for sharing this. God bless you 🥰🙌🏼💞
Thank you for your testimony. Seems God led me to hear it today. I'm 59, still struggling with bipolar borderline personality disorder ptsd. Your testimony helped me to see.... First, I'm not the only one at this age struggling with mental illness due to a traumatic childhood and Second, surely God is with me and does have a plan for my life.
I love when he said "this isn't just the devil trying to mess with me, he already tried to do that through broken people earlier in my life, this is being allowed by the Lord." I felt that.. ❤🙏🏾
I was just thinking about ptsd because I feel like I suffer from it and I was calling it anxiety. However I do suffer from social anxiety all my life and I’ve asked the lord to deliver me. Since I can remember I’ve dealt with this. Some days I don’t have it. But mostly I do 😢 it’s definitely spiritual , chains etc
There's more work to be done in your heart. Ask God what you need to repent from. Not being judgemental just telling you what the Holy Spirit is telling me.
Declare Jesus upon you and family pray that He will continue to heal and restore you n family every day. Thank you for sharing God bless you in Jesus mighty Name ✝️🙌🏽in God everything is possible ✝️
Ive been binging these, I have learned so much about responding to my emotions. Thank you Delafe for your incredible ministry; keep it up! Edit:Simple answer, Jesus is the Infinite Truth.
Pastor, you're really brave and genuine to talk about your traumas in the public. Unfortunately, so many of pastors ,prophets, and the church leaders in the church are projecting their traumas on the folk and abuse them spiritually, instead of accepting that they need healing, process their traumas and grieving. The church need to be trauma- informed to don't label the traumatized Christians as demonized. So many of behaviors that looks like a sin is Trauma. So many of pastors and leaders interpret the trauma as a demon , since they are not trauma- informed.
I went with this same PTSD stuff even as I was serving as Associate Pastor in a church in Covid 19 era.. Jesus came to my rescue and freed me.. I'm being healed every day day.. every part of my life ❤
How Amazing is our Savior Jesus Christ! He loves us so much to change us Hallelujah!!! Praise the Lord for healing your broken heart! Glory to God our Father!!!
We as kids have been threatened not to speak about out condition. So I can relate pretty well. My siblings went with the oppressive cycle but soon Jesus will shake it and make room for new life.
Thank you so much for sharing your testimony!! This is going to reach so many who need to hear this. Father God is The Great Physician, but He put people on this earth with the job of being listeners and healers through Him, to help Him help us. Mental health is SO incredibly important. Seeking help doesn't make you weak, nor is it a reflection of your lack of belief in Him. He created us to need one another, we view seeing a doctor for our physical health as acceptable, we should view seeking help for our mental health in the same way. We all have a past, we all struggle. Seeking help is actually one of the strongest things we can do!! God is so good, if you are struggling please pray for His guidance to someone who can help!! Be blessed! ❤
Thank you so much for the testimony, currently learning to be closer to God. It's been 10 years since I suffered from PTSD and still struggle with it these days but seeing another Christian fight the same battle and carrying the same cross really motivated me to move forward and to trust in Lord Jesus that someday I will be healed, thank you so much may God bless you abundantly
I really needed this. I have CPTSD also. I backslid on some symtoms when i visited family. And i say it that same way, its like God.is refathering me..but sometimes I project my rejection when I fall back into old symptoms. At one pont i thought He left me, and I felt/heard Him speak to me gently also reassuring me that though i go in & out, He is always with me. Im also originally from the Bay area in California, thank you so much for sharing your testimony. I needed to hear this. Im 36 starting all over and in College & want to also study theology. When I get triggered I sometimes feel unworthy & like He cant use me anymore. Im still in my process.
What a wonderful interview and testimony, very clear and full of valuable information for those of us who are suffering and going through this healing process, I would like it if I could somehow see the painting of Jesus, I am sure that many will want to see it too and through it they will find comfort for our souls waiting for freedom this freedom that can only be found by divine intervention and grace of our lord Jesus Christ Thanks 🙏
My heart was with you as you shared your testimony so wonderfully and so well. I am so happy the Lord Jesus rescued you. One day, the evil and brokenness in this world will not be and we will be with our Precious Savior. He will makes us all whole, as you said, and the Father will wipe every tear away, no more sorrow, no more pain. I love that He made you, in His plan and purposes, a healer and pastor to all. He is so magnificent in so many ways! Praise!
What an inspiring testimony thank you Pastor for sharing your intimate story, I thank you personally because I have a daughter struggling with mental health C PTSD I believe she may have symptoms. Watching you speak, I started looking for help for her. Thank you Jesus your timing is always perfect! May Jesus bless you Pastor!
Thank you so much this is encourageing. I recieve counceling since 15 years and trauma therapy since 8 years. I grew up in a christian legalist cult, with a depressive mother and an alcoholic father. I see healing like less triggerpoints and so on but it is verry hard to stay patient and to go trough all the diffrent layers of pain.
I came across this channel and this was the first story i watched. What a wonderful, honest and genuine brother in Christ. May the Lord continue to work grace, truth, wisdom and hope through you. This message really spoke to my heart. Thankyou for your honesty.
I was a very lost soul until two years ago. I had a very hard identity crisis. I didn't know who I was, what I was supposed to do, how I was supposed to act, what I was supposed to say. Then God just sent me his unending love until I gave in to his love. I gave my life to the Lord. I repented and started following him. Then I had a really bad depression. I was in a clinic for depression and now I know that my mother abused me psychologically and neglected me. It was very painful to find out and I was asking to myself, "why now?" Now I know that God knew I was going to have this identity crisis and depression so He called me to let me know He loved me and wanted to carry my pain and just help me go through this. I am in therapy now and I am grateful to the Lord for my progress. I am forever thankful to Him for saving me. He truly is the best Father there is.
Such a beautiful and encouraging testimony.. Can relate so much to this the way God is also working my life.. Thank you so much.. Thank you jesus Christ.. Thank you.. :)))
This is a very important testimony. Many of us even after we meet Christ engage our minds and develop intellectually but leave our emotional health behind. And the church esp in other countries does not always embrace the idea of healing as a PROCESS. Strength and the appearance of strength are valued. But the reality is CHRIST IS THE ONE WHO IS STRONG. We indeed are weak. We indeed need His help. And healing does not come from simply declaring “I am healed!” Sometimes it does but sometimes a there is a process the Lord guides us through that deepens out dependence and our love for Him.
I'm still working on my emotional intelligence. I had a very violent childhood. I like him, just turned off those memories. Distraction was a tool used to avoid remembering those pains. Including ptsd from war as a young man. I prayed to God to have the ability to cry again. I was able to cry a little the other day sitting with the holy spirit. Just thinking of how God could love someone like me. Cannabis and alcohol were my medicine for years but I was convicted and gave them up recently. Now I'm dealing with anger and rage. I know it's God's plan for me to heal through this the right way.
Hi @starkchimneyguy, As I was reading your post, I heard the guest, Tim, say.."Be courageous. It takes courage to heal." and ..."We're not meant to do this alone.". I felt to reshare those words with you. I pray that God continues to encourage you and that you trust those God has placed in your life to walk with you on your journey to healing. Be encouraged, my brother in Christ.
Praise Jesus for your healing Tim! Thank you so very much for sharing your story!, the body of Christ so desperately needs to hear these things and allow healing of our hearts🙏🏼🔥🕊🙏🏼
This is helpful as many deal with this..God thank you for loving and understanding what we deal with..thank you for walking with us through our wounds, brokenheartedness. We love you Abba Father.
Listening from India and I have a niece and a nephew who needed healing from mental health , Lord here I placed my prayer to you. Please heal them lord.
I heard and watched the testimonies on this channel I Ioved them and they made me think that I need Jesus God in my life it reveals that I can live a holy life because of Jesus only
Oh dear God .thank you Pastor for sharing your story of true pain .. God helping you to come through..oh my God ...I'm thinking 🤔 of Joseph...in the bible who went through crap...
Thank you so much for this testimony! A sheperd needs to push his stick into the sheep's wool to get ALL the hidden parasites out. It's very uncomfortable and hurtful for the sheep, but it's so nessecary and so worth it! That's exactly what our Lord and sheperd Jesus Christ does with our traumas and wounds in life!! Thank you Abba! What a good and lovely father you are! ❤❤❤ Praying for everyone who's in this situation right now. May God bless you brothers and sisters. Keep your head up! God knows what he's doing! ✝️🙏
C-ptsd also describes what I fight (I will never claim or call it mine) after over 40 years trapped in a marriage with a rabid covert narcissist God is healing me gradually since he finally drank himself to death.
😢😢😢😢😢😮😮😮😮❤❤❤ Wow. Thank you. I feel loved more. I am valued. I am growing. I an learning. I love you JESUS AMEN. YOU ARE KNOWN. I AM MOVED. I AM LISTENING. AMEN
I always thought that the fact that my flashbacks and triggers were still present was proof that I was not trusting God or disobedient somehow with forgiveness etc. Sometimes super religious people make comments like this and it is damaging. They make it feel foul to be human who has had a past and biological trauma we had no control of. I will admit that I adopted those attitudes towards myself and it has caused me to delay seeking help for C-PTSD. I am just so exhausted now… This video has opened my eyes to see God differently about this issue. Thank you 🤍
Thank you so much for your honesty it means so much. Thank you for your bravery l went through a lot of the same things l have complex ptsd. Thank you so much thank you lord Jesus for this man’s honesty.👍👍🤲🤲🌻🌻🤙🥹🥹😢😢🥹🦅🦅🙏🙏🙏❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️
I’m not good at computers l don’t know how to change it l don’ t like it but not my fault please don’t judge me for something that is not my fault.❤️❤️
@VN-rn7yg l don’t know how to change it l’m not very good at computers. I just wanted to say thank you for the testimony as l have complex ptsd. It is not my fault.
@VN-rn7yg That's a number that TH-cam add. They started adding a number after people's names a few years ago. They did it to mine. You can't do anything about it.
I was diagnosed with cPTSD (complex) from layers of childhood trauma that was never addressed but this year (age 48) He led me to a trauma therapist and He used her to help facilitate some things in my life ❤ However, I started with Jesus, spending time, worshipping and being obedient, spending time with Him and making Him my everything ❤ Then, after He had me where He wanted me He led me to a therapist. Jesus and Therapy, in that order only ❤ Trust me, it work! I am healed and whole and have relationships again! I don’t feel odd anymore, I feel free and loved and connected ❤ Jesus can and will heal you but you have to surrender Everything so He can do what He can do only ❤
I have PTSD im pretty sure although it’s never been diagnosed. I’ve always been a very neurotic, sensitive, emotional and impressionable person and thus I’ve been very easily traumatized over the years. I’ve been through some counseling that was supposed to help but didn’t seem to yield much. I’m at the point now that I’m just trusting Jesus that he’ll heal me of the stuff as time goes on as part of my relationship with him. Since he’s the great Counselor
I’m from anchorage. Jesus saved me and I’m struggling with the old temptations. I’ve been wondering if jezebel has invaded my mind again. I’m unsure if the pentecostal Church I am a part of is equipped to relate. How can people never exposed to darkness help people who have been in darkness their whole lives? How can people who say to just cling on more to Jesus and have never experienced cptsd severe depression suicidal thoughts relate or help someone who has and is dealing with those things despite being saved? Did Jesus actually save me because I have fallen into temptation again? Because I am weak? Or is this another opportunity for the glory of the lord to come through? I have faith in the Lord and I believe in His delivering power. Are there other people out there who have gone through what I am going through? Thank you for this interview. I pray that the Lord is healing me in Jesus’ name. I love you Jesus. Thank you for believing in me and never giving up on me.
This has made me feel a lot less alone, as a Christian who has cptsd and is just now beginning to heal at the age of 34. Thank you for sharing your testimony!
You are SEEN. Jesus said he came for the sick and not the prefect ones.
I am 32 and also now starting to deal with trauma and such. God is good. Don’t worry brother you’re not alone

@@stars19735FYI you tube may block any comment that's helpful. Jesus can delivery you from anything! It may not be pretty in the beginning because a sinners truth is ugly. But we are all sinners and the Lord is waiting for you to ask him for help WHOLEHEARTEDLY!!
Blessing!! I have same experience, but for me it wasnt easy fix.. It toke me time, I seemed Lord but I was selfish, living in sin and so I was using drugs, alcohol to cope my trauma... I fully repented, cried out and he finally came to me and lift me and filled me with Holy Spirit and I feel joy and peace most of the days, I keep seeking him daily and talking o him like to my Father, I never had one, HE IS MY FATHER NOW
@@partlysimpson5154Stories like yours cheer my heart so much. The Lord found me 22 years ago in such a desperate mess. He is so patient and gracious. Peace and grace to you
@@partlysimpson5154 It's Not easy for any of us
But once you keep going and don't give up, The Reward is So Big and Great.
We just have to take one day at a time.
We have bad days, when we do just pick the Bible up and Always Pray.
I wish you well my Brother 🙏🏽🙏🏽🙏🏽🙏🏽
Totally relating about antidepressants and numbness. Had exact same experience, was able to overcome after meeting and seeking Christ. God is our great physician, follow the directions he leads you into in dealing with symptoms. Get into His Word, pray and believe for His healing, whatever it takes. Victory awaits ..
It takes a lot for a man to speak this truth and testify. But it will help many. Prayers and blessings to Pastor Tim. 💓🙏🏾
So true and amen.
This is a blessed man.
I prayed for the churches. We have had a spirit of religion coming at us. We must stand agaisnt it in Jesus name
You're so reflective & calm, it was very easy to listen to you, you overcame so much with great patience, the Lord told me 30 yrs ago not take take any drugs precribed or otherwise, they're a doorway to demonic activity, he delivered me overnight of an 11 yr addiction to pain killers sleeping tablets & valium,
Awesome and Amen.
Wow! All the glory to God!
With no withdraw? Amen
Who is Jesus to you? That's gonna make me weep." True and the best response I have heard on this program. ❤
I also have PTSD among other things and i lead a Bible study. A lot of time I feel unworthy or unqualified because of my brokenness.
We all fall short. Every person in the Old Testament was broken. God loves and uses us anyway.
All things work together for good to them that love God and are called according to His purpose in the name of Jesus Christ. ✝️🙏🕊✝️
That's amazing because Jesus came for the weak and unworthy.
🙏
Jesus loves us all, He cares about you and wants you to have faith in him in everything you do. All you have to do is let go and let Jesus take the wheel. The healing will happen quickly after that. God bless you.
The Lord wants to heal every single wound . Praise Jesus. Take all of your pain straight to Him. He wants to heal us
Thank you so much for sharing as a 44 year old women I’m going through this very thing with cptsd. I ran and buried this down for so long. The Lord has brought it to the surface and has given me the courage to face the trauma and heal. He is a good good father that loves his children to leave them broken. Your testimony has helped me to not feel so alone and isolated in this season of my life. Im truely grateful to you for sharing this. God bless you 🥰🙌🏼💞
God must be so proud of you putting up with your past.
This is an amazing testimony 💜 thank you for being so vulnerable!
Amen and amen. 🙏
That. Is. An. Incredibly. Overwhelmingly. Precious. And. Deeply. Glorious. Ongoing. Testimony. Of. The. Power. Of. Creation. In. The. Midst. Of. Utter. Chaos.
I will pray and ask God to remove these fears
Thank you for your testimony. Seems God led me to hear it today. I'm 59, still struggling with bipolar borderline personality disorder ptsd. Your testimony helped me to see.... First, I'm not the only one at this age struggling with mental illness due to a traumatic childhood and Second, surely God is with me and does have a plan for my life.
What an extremely gentle spirit this man carries, may God keep him 🙏🏾 ❤️
I love when he said "this isn't just the devil trying to mess with me, he already tried to do that through broken people earlier in my life, this is being allowed by the Lord." I felt that.. ❤🙏🏾
Jesus does wonderful things!
I was just thinking about ptsd because I feel like I suffer from it and I was calling it anxiety. However I do suffer from social anxiety all my life and I’ve asked the lord to deliver me. Since I can remember I’ve dealt with this. Some days I don’t have it. But mostly I do 😢 it’s definitely spiritual , chains etc
There's more work to be done in your heart. Ask God what you need to repent from. Not being judgemental just telling you what the Holy Spirit is telling me.
@@ForTLoveofDogshow you know?
Declare Jesus upon you and family pray that He will continue to heal and restore you n family every day. Thank you for sharing God bless you in Jesus mighty Name ✝️🙌🏽in God everything is possible ✝️
Praise God for this testimony! It touched my heart, I'm in need of more healing, and I know Jesus will continue healing me! ❤
Ive been binging these, I have learned so much about responding to my emotions. Thank you Delafe for your incredible ministry; keep it up!
Edit:Simple answer, Jesus is the Infinite Truth.
Pastor, you're really brave and genuine to talk about your traumas in the public. Unfortunately, so many of pastors ,prophets, and the church leaders in the church are projecting their traumas on the folk and abuse them spiritually, instead of accepting that they need healing, process their traumas and grieving.
The church need to be trauma- informed to don't label the traumatized Christians as demonized.
So many of behaviors that looks like a sin is Trauma.
So many of pastors and leaders interpret the trauma as a demon , since they are not
trauma- informed.
I went with this same PTSD stuff even as I was serving as Associate Pastor in a church in Covid 19 era.. Jesus came to my rescue and freed me.. I'm being healed every day day.. every part of my life ❤
How Amazing is our Savior Jesus Christ! He loves us so much to change us Hallelujah!!! Praise the Lord for healing your broken heart! Glory to God our Father!!!
We as kids have been threatened not to speak about out condition. So I can relate pretty well. My siblings went with the oppressive cycle but soon Jesus will shake it and make room for new life.
Thank you so much for sharing your testimony!! This is going to reach so many who need to hear this. Father God is The Great Physician, but He put people on this earth with the job of being listeners and healers through Him, to help Him help us. Mental health is SO incredibly important. Seeking help doesn't make you weak, nor is it a reflection of your lack of belief in Him. He created us to need one another, we view seeing a doctor for our physical health as acceptable, we should view seeking help for our mental health in the same way. We all have a past, we all struggle. Seeking help is actually one of the strongest things we can do!! God is so good, if you are struggling please pray for His guidance to someone who can help!! Be blessed! ❤
Thank you so much for the testimony, currently learning to be closer to God. It's been 10 years since I suffered from PTSD and still struggle with it these days but seeing another Christian fight the same battle and carrying the same cross really motivated me to move forward and to trust in Lord Jesus that someday I will be healed, thank you so much may God bless you abundantly
Thank you Jesus thank you for this brave honest man. Thank you Jesus for loving us.👋👋👋👏👏👏🌞🌞🌝🌝🤙🤙🤙🤙🙏🙏🙏🙏🦅🦅🦅❤️❤️🤲🤲👋
I’m like half way through and I keep yelling in my mind “deliverance deliverance deliverance! Holy Spirit’s ministry!!”
He needs to get delivered from demons and believe in the supernatural
@@algut2376 Yes I’m praying for him! He doesn’t need to suffer. Praying for healing restoration and deliverance a new encounter with Holy Spirit
I really needed this. I have CPTSD also. I backslid on some symtoms when i visited family. And i say it that same way, its like God.is refathering me..but sometimes I project my rejection when I fall back into old symptoms. At one pont i thought He left me, and I felt/heard Him speak to me gently also reassuring me that though i go in & out, He is always with me. Im also originally from the Bay area in California, thank you so much for sharing your testimony. I needed to hear this. Im 36 starting all over and in College & want to also study theology. When I get triggered I sometimes feel unworthy & like He cant use me anymore. Im still in my process.
The same, I’d like to know about it in my 20th
What a wonderful interview and testimony, very clear and full of valuable information for those of us who are suffering and going through this healing process, I would like it if I could somehow see the painting of Jesus, I am sure that many will want to see it too and through it they will find comfort for our souls waiting for freedom this freedom that can only be found by divine intervention and grace of our lord Jesus Christ
Thanks 🙏
Pastor Tim you are so gentle. I'm sorry for all the hurts and damages you went through. Bless your healing journey pastor Tim
❤
My heart was with you as you shared your testimony so wonderfully and so well. I am so happy the Lord Jesus rescued you. One day, the evil and brokenness in this world will not be and we will be with our Precious Savior. He will makes us all whole, as you said, and the Father will wipe every tear away, no more sorrow, no more pain. I love that He made you, in His plan and purposes, a healer and pastor to all. He is so magnificent in so many ways! Praise!
What an inspiring testimony thank you Pastor for sharing your intimate story, I thank you personally because I have a daughter struggling with mental health C PTSD I believe she may have symptoms. Watching you speak, I started looking for help for her. Thank you Jesus your timing is always perfect! May Jesus bless you Pastor!
Thank you so much this is encourageing. I recieve counceling since 15 years and trauma therapy since 8 years. I grew up in a christian legalist cult, with a depressive mother and an alcoholic father. I see healing like less triggerpoints and so on but it is verry hard to stay patient and to go trough all the diffrent layers of pain.
Beautiful story of God's grace and healing
I came across this channel and this was the first story i watched. What a wonderful, honest and genuine brother in Christ. May the Lord continue to work grace, truth, wisdom and hope through you. This message really spoke to my heart. Thankyou for your honesty.
I was a very lost soul until two years ago. I had a very hard identity crisis. I didn't know who I was, what I was supposed to do, how I was supposed to act, what I was supposed to say. Then God just sent me his unending love until I gave in to his love. I gave my life to the Lord. I repented and started following him. Then I had a really bad depression. I was in a clinic for depression and now I know that my mother abused me psychologically and neglected me. It was very painful to find out and I was asking to myself, "why now?" Now I know that God knew I was going to have this identity crisis and depression so He called me to let me know He loved me and wanted to carry my pain and just help me go through this. I am in therapy now and I am grateful to the Lord for my progress. I am forever thankful to Him for saving me. He truly is the best Father there is.
Such a beautiful and encouraging testimony.. Can relate so much to this the way God is also working my life.. Thank you so much.. Thank you jesus Christ.. Thank you.. :)))
This is a very important testimony. Many of us even after we meet Christ engage our minds and develop intellectually but leave our emotional health behind. And the church esp in other countries does not always embrace the idea of healing as a PROCESS. Strength and the appearance of strength are valued. But the reality is CHRIST IS THE ONE WHO IS STRONG. We indeed are weak. We indeed need His help. And healing does not come from simply declaring “I am healed!” Sometimes it does but sometimes a there is a process the Lord guides us through that deepens out dependence and our love for Him.
Woooow, I love that
He heals the broken hearted
So happy I caught this!!! ❤❤❤❤❤❤
Praise God hallelujah thank you Jesus Christ for his testimony 🙌
Amen ✝️ 🙏
I'm still working on my emotional intelligence. I had a very violent childhood. I like him, just turned off those memories. Distraction was a tool used to avoid remembering those pains. Including ptsd from war as a young man. I prayed to God to have the ability to cry again. I was able to cry a little the other day sitting with the holy spirit. Just thinking of how God could love someone like me. Cannabis and alcohol were my medicine for years but I was convicted and gave them up recently. Now I'm dealing with anger and rage. I know it's God's plan for me to heal through this the right way.
Hi @starkchimneyguy, As I was reading your post, I heard the guest, Tim, say.."Be courageous. It takes courage to heal." and ..."We're not meant to do this alone.". I felt to reshare those words with you. I pray that God continues to encourage you and that you trust those God has placed in your life to walk with you on your journey to healing. Be encouraged, my brother in Christ.
THANK YOU FOR SHARING YOUR TESTIMONY WITH US! ✨🙏🥰
Whatever you may be facing right now, do know that a bad decision can wait. Rest. Rejuvenate. Rebirth. God bless all of you.
TY and you also.
This interview was an answer to my prayers, was a life-saver. Praise the Lord! May God bless this humble servant of God.
Only Jesus can put us back together! ❤️
Praise Jesus for your healing Tim! Thank you so very much for sharing your story!, the body of Christ so desperately needs to hear these things and allow healing of our hearts🙏🏼🔥🕊🙏🏼
This is one of my favourite testimonies, I’ve listened to it so many times. Thank you for sharing.
Thank you so much for sharing this very powerful testimony. God bless you both in the perfect name of Jesus ✝️ Christ. 🙏🕊🙌✝️
I needed this. Thank you.
This is helpful as many deal with this..God thank you for loving and understanding what we deal with..thank you for walking with us through our wounds, brokenheartedness. We love you Abba Father.
I can identify so much with this testimony. I was 25 years old when l had flashbacks of trauma in my childhood.
Hope you have council and come out stronger.❤❤
Listening from India and I have a niece and a nephew who needed healing from mental health , Lord here I placed my prayer to you. Please heal them lord.
I heard and watched the testimonies on this channel I Ioved them and they made me think that I need Jesus God in my life it reveals that I can live a holy life because of Jesus only
Oh dear God .thank you Pastor for sharing your story of true pain .. God helping you to come through..oh my God ...I'm thinking 🤔 of Joseph...in the bible who went through crap...
I love your authenticity. I needed to hear this. Thank you.
I was diagnosed with cptsd 2 years ago. It’s awful. God has delivered me of some things. I’m under construction. 😢
I love that "under construction". 😂 We are all "under construction".
Agree. All of us are. Those who don't admit are more difficult to handle. So rejoice in your weakness as Paul did.
We will be a work in progress until we die. I pray your strength IN THE LORD IN JESUS' NAME. AMEN.

Amazing testimony thank you for sharing ❤️ God bless you
Love and miss you Pastor Tim and Wanda! TY for sharing your testimony. I needed to hear this right now. ❤
I have had these same issues
This has been my favorite one! He spoke so much truth to me! Thank you Jesus for using his life to talk to me!
WOW. what amazing testimony . YESHUA IS KING FOREVER !!!
I am diagnosed with PTSD since 2016 but thank God almost all my symptoms have subsided 🙌🏾🙌🏾🙏🏾🙏🏾💕💕
That's a blessing. Because of the things you attach to yourself and speak over yourself.
Amen!
Thank you for being so open and vulnerable❤🙏
Blessings upon you Tim!🙏🏼🔥🙏🏼🔥🙏🏼🔥🕊🕊🕊🕊
Thank you so much for this testimony! A sheperd needs to push his stick into the sheep's wool to get ALL the hidden parasites out. It's very uncomfortable and hurtful for the sheep, but it's so nessecary and so worth it! That's exactly what our Lord and sheperd Jesus Christ does with our traumas and wounds in life!! Thank you Abba! What a good and lovely father you are! ❤❤❤
Praying for everyone who's in this situation right now. May God bless you brothers and sisters. Keep your head up! God knows what he's doing! ✝️🙏
GLORY TO OUR BELIVED FATHER,JESUS IS LOVE
C-ptsd also describes what I fight (I will never claim or call it mine) after over 40 years trapped in a marriage with a rabid covert narcissist
God is healing me gradually since he finally drank himself to death.
😢😢😢😢😢😮😮😮😮❤❤❤
Wow. Thank you. I feel loved more. I am valued. I am growing. I an learning.
I love you JESUS
AMEN. YOU ARE KNOWN. I AM MOVED. I AM LISTENING.
AMEN
I always thought that the fact that my flashbacks and triggers were still present was proof that I was not trusting God or disobedient somehow with forgiveness etc. Sometimes super religious people make comments like this and it is damaging. They make it feel foul to be human who has had a past and biological trauma we had no control of. I will admit that I adopted those attitudes towards myself and it has caused me to delay seeking help for C-PTSD.
I am just so exhausted now…
This video has opened my eyes to see God differently about this issue. Thank you 🤍
Amen amen! Thank you!
Your a lovely man. Thankyou. Helped me a lot🙏🏻✝️♥️
What a beautiful testimony. It has ministered to me.
Fantastic testimonial. Book by Pete Walker Complex PTSD from surviving to thriving. A must read ❤
This testimony touched me so deeply.
Thank you so much for your honesty it means so much. Thank you for your bravery l went through a lot of the same things l have complex ptsd. Thank you so much thank you lord Jesus for this man’s honesty.👍👍🤲🤲🌻🌻🤙🥹🥹😢😢🥹🦅🦅🙏🙏🙏❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️
@VN-rn7yg l don’t know not my fault
I’m not good at computers l don’t know how to change it l don’ t like it but not my fault please don’t judge me for something that is not my fault.❤️❤️
@VN-rn7yg l don’t know how to change it l’m not very good at computers. I just wanted to say thank you for the testimony as l have complex ptsd. It is not my fault.
@VN-rn7yg That's a number that TH-cam add.
They started adding a number after people's names a few years ago. They did it to mine. You can't do anything about it.
I was diagnosed with cPTSD (complex) from layers of childhood trauma that was never addressed but this year (age 48) He led me to a trauma therapist and He used her to help facilitate some things in my life ❤ However, I started with Jesus, spending time, worshipping and being obedient, spending time with Him and making Him my everything ❤ Then, after He had me where He wanted me He led me to a therapist. Jesus and Therapy, in that order only ❤ Trust me, it work! I am healed and whole and have relationships again! I don’t feel odd anymore, I feel free and loved and connected ❤ Jesus can and will heal you but you have to surrender Everything so He can do what He can do only ❤
I appreciate this interview. On a personal level
I have PTSD im pretty sure although it’s never been diagnosed. I’ve always been a very neurotic, sensitive, emotional and impressionable person and thus I’ve been very easily traumatized over the years. I’ve been through some counseling that was supposed to help but didn’t seem to yield much. I’m at the point now that I’m just trusting Jesus that he’ll heal me of the stuff as time goes on as part of my relationship with him. Since he’s the great Counselor
I want to visit your church when I go back.
God heals ❤🙏🧔♀
I LOVE YOUR TESTIMONY...it helps me not get angry..at abusers
What a genuine and beautiful testimony.
Amen thank you for this testimony I definitely can relate to so much I will watch again
Eric, was sooooo respectful he didn't say that the commercial he mentioned was waaaay b4 his time😊
THERE IS NOOOO WORDS TO EXPLAIN WHO JESUS IS TO MEEE❕ IM IN AWE 🫢🔥💯🔥🤩
Your testimony is so beautiful! Thank you for sharing. This hit my heart and gives me hope.
He definitely heals and restores❤
Yeah, I've suffered 45 years, I just accept it. I had such a traumatic childhood
Jesus came to heal the brokenhearted.. :)
😢😢 sorry sis.
@@susannabonke8552it’s ok. Heaven is on our horizon!!! ❤
I’m from anchorage. Jesus saved me and I’m struggling with the old temptations. I’ve been wondering if jezebel has invaded my mind again. I’m unsure if the pentecostal Church I am a part of is equipped to relate. How can people never exposed to darkness help people who have been in darkness their whole lives? How can people who say to just cling on more to Jesus and have never experienced cptsd severe depression suicidal thoughts relate or help someone who has and is dealing with those things despite being saved? Did Jesus actually save me because I have fallen into temptation again? Because I am weak? Or is this another opportunity for the glory of the lord to come through? I have faith in the Lord and I believe in His delivering power. Are there other people out there who have gone through what I am going through? Thank you for this interview. I pray that the Lord is healing me in Jesus’ name. I love you Jesus. Thank you for believing in me and never giving up on me.
