Weed, for some people, just isn’t necessary, for some people, it doesn’t hurt them because they don’t abuse it. So one who has abused it needs to recognize that those who don’t abuse it smoke so rarely that it’s hardly even present and part of thier lives. Those of us who’ve abused it, let it become most of our lives and even if one didn’t have to be accountable for thier actions and or productive know that it doesn’t work when you do abuse it because the effect diminishes, so IF you smoke weed, needs to be sporadically anyways. Overall ultimately bros, ok go through the stages of smoking weed but yeah definitely leave it behind, that world of peeps who are intertwined and connected to the drug world, I mean, who needs it really? Go hang with your friends watch tv, walk the dog, play games, get connected back to life! I’m 56 now & it was a problem my whole adult life and I’ve relapsed several times but you know what, it just wasn’t ever the same. I mean really it’s something you do when your young. And hey if you do accept it in your adult life, OK, but don’t abuse it, cuz you’ll have to stop. Being sober is just so relaxing and it’s the highest you’ll ever need to be!
@@DaGubah501 Hello brother Uber I just wanted to let you know your comment resonated so hard with me that it feels like your my 56 year old version of myself leaving back a comment for my 26 year old self. I want to say so much more but I don't have the drive to do so because of what I imagine we both have felt before. I've been taking antidepressants since I was 16 and I never had parents to discipline me so unfortunately, addictions have been something I've had to fight all my young adult life so I could one day be free. Is there any tips you would recommend to someone 30 years younger trying to escape from the love of the sedation of marijuana aka using it as a 24/7 escape. Something that I've learned now is that there are many powers at play or for better terms things I just can't control that will try to hook me onto "worldly" vices but it's only up to us as individual beings to resist. I agree with your last point though brother. As much as I'd love to be that chill high dude who doesn't care about stress and can get through life with vices like say maybe Bob Dylan or Tom Waits, I just don't have that cool with any sort of substance (Or at very least their persona presented it that way, also these artists you could relate to since they're closer to your age than mine but they have gotten me through those lonely nights. That being said the same goes for say Snoop Dogg or Wiz Khalida, two rappers of maybe closer my age who likely abuse weed compared top average consumption but can get by) Sorry for making this about me, all that being said I'm glad your comment ended the way it did, stay present in the moment and live life without attachments, I hope to acquire your wisdom and fortitude as I grow older. Stay blessed.
man...I can't belive how transparent you are. It's such a great gift to be so open about your past and share it with other people...Not a lot of Christians do that. Thank you. God bless!💕
I've been clean from Porn for about 3 months now bro it's really true that when you stay close to God sin becomes less appealing, that's what I experienced the more I spend time with God the easier to overcome sin in my life
@Tim V to be honest I've been clean for a year but the devil try to get me back to it recently flashing back the old lustful memories and I gave in sadly, I feel more empty after I did it, the thrill I use to get is not there anymore, I know God really wants me to get get rid of this and get closer to Him more and also trust that I will overcome through Him, just always come to him bro I know God loves us enough to forgive us every time we fail him , 1John 1:9 just like David when he committed sexual sin against bathsheba
@Tim V same bro the memory keeps playing back and comin out of nowhere even if I don't think about it, it's really the devil mess with us but I'll be praying for you bro and plz keep me in prayer too we can overcome together, especially in today's world who normalised this stuff
I kinda always find your videos when I am struggling with something as a christian myself. I myself struggled a lot with depression, smoking weed and being addicted to porn. Your videos are really a blessing to see that we don't have to be ashamed and are not alone. god bless you greetings from Germany
i'm 17 i just fully quit smoking weed the start of quarantine, and have been pulling myself more into christ. around my age its a lot of temptations and this age is around the time that a lot of people are getting into more drinking and smoking and i've been proud of myself that he's guided me to see more light in life than gateway drugs and things like that
Keep it up. Your right around our age their are a lot of temptations and it’s hard but we need to persevere. I have been falling into sexual sin lately but i keep pushing and asking God to deliver me from this. Love from NY bless you 🙏🏾
You know it’s sooo crazy I asked God/Yah to reveal to me if I needed to stop smoking this was hard for me but I knew that I wanted a closer relationship with him I told him I would stop immediately if he showed me that I wasn’t supposed to. So the next day I’m on UA-cam and I come across your channel and saw that you made music.. so I start letting the Bedroom Gospel album play and green leaves stood out to me as far as the sound and melody keep in mind I wasn’t putting two and two together lol I was so caught up in the sound and your voice and after awhile later that day I just listened to the lyrics and I was looking in the mirror and my jaw DROPPED 🤯😧😲 I was like .... YOURE SPEAKING TO ME!? IM DONE!!!!! Lol it’s more to the story but just know I appreciate you! Your music is such a blessing and the new sound is needed especially for young believers lol we wanna vibe out too 😂 anyways if you see this I’m just saying thank you I make one full week no green leaves tomorrow. This is a hard sacrifice for me because I have to sit in my anxiety sometimes and it sucks but I just pray and praise my way through!!
Justin lee hey Justin don’t let the enemy overwhelm you with guilt💛take a deep breath , relax and just pray he will forgive you no matter what because you already are making steps towards progress because you admitted it and you were able to be honest with yourself first! get up and fight everyday! pray daily and it doesn’t have to be no deep prayer either whatever is on your heart you can pray about just have conversation that’s all prayer is , it’s conversation 💛keep fighting bro you will win whatever your battling i believe you will overcome this!!🌹
It's Refreshing To Hear Someone In This Generation Say That Weed Is Wrong, Wack, Wicked And Sinful. Too Many Young Saints Have Believed The Lie Concerning Weed. The Advice You Gave Is Valid. Just Chill In Christ, Kyle Manning
Kyle Manning for months I’ve been struggling with smoking weed and started feeling the conviction of it, then i had been finally able to just not want it and not care about it. it caused me to be lazy, stupid, etc. i have clarity without it and i feel so much better... i haven’t smoked in a few weeks now but i have been trying for months and would go three days without it and then started again. God is everything and it’s crazy how weed is seen so incorrectly, and God saved me from that. I’d get high and I’d hear him like “Girl I’ll forgive you but you know this isn’t right you have so much to do...” and he forgave me everytime I went back to it. Tmi maybe but God is so amazing!!! God bless
@@mostlovedmama Thank You So Many For Being Transparent And Sharing Your Inspire Testimony. Keep Sharing Your Testimony, Keep Fighting The Good Fight, And Keep Hating What God Hates And Loving What God Loves. Just Chill In Christ, Kyle Manning
Kyle Manning I got to be honest man. I'm truely struggling with this generation. I heard a awesome man of God bring some clarity to my understanding very clear. He said this life ain't about my life, my story is irrelevant. Why do you need my story when i can give you the story of the gospel which is about Jesus. He goes on to say that people refuse to believe that and that is part of the problem. Social media builds big ego. People don't change because i told you i came from the ghetto, people change because the love of Jesus Christ. This dude needs a wake up call like most of chh. Everybody is just trying to sell God instead of giving freely like God does. Smh i feel angry with all these people. Look at me me me that is all i see. Dudes becoming idols man . When i minister i share with people that they can have a good life, i share a little about what God has done but continue to keep that spot light on Jesus more than me. Idols are getting knocked down. If it was about us then why were so many people through out history saved but never mentioned by name in the bible? Question people need to come into reality with and ask themselves am i doing for Jesus or myself.
Jesus: Family: Racing you didn’t tag me but I happened to see it and honestly I understand your perspective completely. while we share our stories we can help people who relate to our PERSONAL struggles in this current generation. Some people only understand things as they are now, and don’t see the Bible how the really should, and it’s simply because they don’t quite understand it. We should always include the word of God as it is living and the ultimate guide to how to live, we need to always point to it, but someone hearing your personal story may be the only thing that got them to open the Word! God uses us to take others to HIM... that’s my perspective and I wholeheartedly believe it. All the glory should always go to God, our Father 🙏🏽💙 God bless you and enjoy your day
naomi renee I understand, just so i don't sound legalistic with this. Anytime i get to minister, i keep the spotlight on Jesus and not on myself. I don't need people to subscribe to my channel or like my videos or buy anything i do for him. There is a point once some people get that it becomes more about self and less on Jesus in a genuine sense. This dudes posts way to many videos for me to be comfortable with it. I cant do it or understand why people do it. If God wants me to share i do otherwise i keep Jesus the head of what i say. Just to much for me.
Today marks 25 days being sober ... I would smoke weed everyday , every 2 hours for about 3 years.. I’m a strong believer in god , & the 2nd coming . God has woken me up to clean my plate & change my life around . I still get thoughts of smoking & trying to find an answer for people if it’s right with god .. is it harmful ? No it’s not , its beautiful like everything god has put on this earth , but he also put the forbidden fruit With Adam & eve & now I realize weed is just the distraction from knowing gods true love .. god is worth more . Gods love is more peaceful than any drug or any plant can give you .. you have gave me confirmation of my answer .. thank you & god bless you brother .
My relationship ended 3 1/2 months ago... still get her stuck in my mind sometimes. I have no friends, my family is there but they DONT help. I feel so alone. When I’m alone I think and drown in my thoughts.... I’m trying to seek him as hard as I can but I DONT get any answers. I can’t do it anymore. Drowning in my thoughts, having no one, the feeling of feeling worthless is real
I will pray for your release from that relationship. All things are working together for good for those who love him and are called for his purpose. You will overcome. That battle is already won. Continue speaking to the Lord and he will deliver you. Stay strong. God loves you ❤
Natalia De Jesus thank you. I wanna just go into the new year being happy and not like this. I can’t feel like this anymore. I don’t want another day, week, month or year like this. I want to meet new friends. New people. I’m alone atm. With no friends and it’s just hard right now
ChuTa God is testing you. You will get through it. I’ve been depressed and alone for 3 years and the 4th year my life changed. The key is never lose faith. Never stop believing that your life will get better. God is all you need.
I’m glad you’re going to be doing a more in depth video about your breakup; I fall deeply too so I can definitely relate to that. Dealt with a situationship breakup that hit hard & I turned to weed bc I didn’t want to face my emotions at all but I had to grab myself out of that for the sake of my family (addiction is a generational curse) & leaning into God is definitely what got me through. but can’t wait for you to share more of your thoughts
1 Peter 4:10 - "As each has received a gift, use it to serve one another, as good stewards of Gods varied grace. " I know this is off topic....but I had to at least share what I learned yesterday...that each of us has gifts, but the purpose for having those gifts is to serve others. Your music (along with a few other artists) has served me well. Has encouraged me in depression. So please keep making music, and keep doing your blogs, you are stewarding your gift well. God bless :)
Thankyou! This is so needed, in our generation; may we recognize what is spiritually damaging us. May the Holy Spirit guide us. Also great cool aesthetics.
What if God took the humble form of man, so that you could learn to Love God and your neighbor as yourself, perhaps you'd be willing to trust the God-man Jesus Christ? Keep seeking God my friend, I pray peace and wisdom for you as you search.
You can’t listen to secular music, those are demons talking not the rappers. The mix frequencies, and witchcraft within music. Especially those like lil uzi, gunna, Travis Scott, Katy Perry, Arianna grande, post Malone, etc. The lord helped me quit it all this year, thank you Jesus!!
Hey Montell, i’m a newer subscriber and i found out about your channel through the “how i broke my pornography addiction” video. i just wanted you to know that this channel is such a blessing to me and the rest of your subscribers. i was starting to believe that there was no god and that i was in life alone. your video’s brought back the lords fire in my heart and i’m so grateful to be in the position i’m in right now, thank you
Thank you for your inspiring words. I am in the process of finding God and dropping my vices (smoking and drinking). It helps when you know someone went through the same thing, and got out of it. Thank you, God Bless you.
Montell, this message is to you. Thank you. When I watched this video I saw myself. I make music, I make film and I’ve had a passion for it since I was 9. I smoke so much weed because of the same reasons you described, I was saved 3 years ago and have had a battle with weed since, my phone has scripture to help me. My friends smoke so much weed, as well I struggle to make my content now because I want to make content (music and film ) for the kingdom. everything else you said resonated with me on a deep level. Thank you brother and thank you God. ❤️
have a similar testimony to you. keep following Jesus , setting an example to others who see this. i'm 15 , and i've been through so much partying and sinful nature , and seeing someone who has a similar story as me lets me know how much more amazing God is.
Bro thank you. I am working on surrending smoking weed as I have been using it HEAVILY heavily heavily to cope for the last 6 years. Not looking forward to withdrawals and irritability and all the other glorious emotions I'll be facing as they rise to the surface in due time, but I pray that I can feel whole as I turn to God to fill that void. I appreciate your words so much, you said many things that hit my heart. Thank you for putting in time and thought to create this content.
Can I get some prayers please? I’ve been smoking since the age of 13 and have been influenced by sin since then. I’m 26 and still habitually smoking. I need help stopping by the grace of God I will.
Same hardest part lately is whenever I decide to take a break I struggle developing an appetite and feel the need to get high again just so I can eat which is terrible beyond this point , I also live with my best friend who is 3 years younger than me and he just got into smoking weed and sometimes I'd always mention how I'm so over it because I started smoking it from the age of 15 and I'm 22 now it's not helping anymore or fun i just feel stuck and lazy all the time
I've been battling weed & alcohol because I've been falling into my feelings to drown in them. I hate when that happens. I need God more than my addictions.
I'm trying to get closer to God this past month and smoking is a big thing I want to stop doing...this video gives me hope that Jesus will get me through anything.
Get that out of your system. Just deny your flesh and walk in your spirit. DONT PICK UP THE BLUNT, IT'S NOT WORTH IT. Call to Jesus and He will guide your steps :)
Thank you for this video God has been calling me to stop smoking and it’s hard because it’s everywhere now and I talk to God and read my Bible everyday to get deeper with God and turn from my sinful way of living
Been constantly thinking of packing a bowl of weed, I'm so glad I flushed it down the toilet. Man thank you so much for this video, I feel encouraged instead of feeling like it's a struggle to quit I feel like I should celebrate quitting and being free.
I would love for you to talk more in depth about your relationship and how you were able to overcome it. How you were able to heal from your past and not let it in prison you!!!
I appreciate you being this transparent. People don’t get how imperfect we are until they really see it. Because, yeah we hear stories but pictures tell more of it.
Honestly, can we talk about this set up for a minute...? Like, the candle, the audio, the setting, outside... It feels like I'm chilling with you sitting on the chair on the other side of the table.
WOW fish , thank you so much for letting the Lord use you ! YOU HAVE LITERALLY NO IDEA HOW YOU JUS IMPACTED ME IN MORE WAYS THAN ONE. I pray you stay rooted in God as you definitely inspired me thank you so much our stories are soo so similar! Thank you for sharing
YOOOOO! God bless u G. Jesus is the best LIKE FOREAL!! Jesus saved me from porn and weed and alcohol.. Jesus is the ultimate thing ever. there is NO better than Him.
Am on the journey of quitting weed(now 4 days) to create space for more of God, My girlfriend broke up with me like a week ago because I would be telling him about the Bible's teaching and she would get angry because she felt like I was preaching to her...I pray to God to help me go through this and I pray for a God fearing woman whom I can start a family with,,.... thanks for this video bro
100% love this video/agree. Been putting off less things that aren’t of God and getting in studying the word with others and been having my greatest season of growth.
I used to use weed to escape too ... But now I feel like I've gotten such a hunger for god and his presence and any time I have consumed (edibles) I use it to go deeper in my devos or I'll write worship and use it to get deeper in his presence... If I'm wrong I pray he reveales it to me ... Anyone else experience this
Man I love your transparency cuz we need that today🤦🏽♂️💯. I just found my way back to God recently n I find that being honest & open is the best way to be free/delivered in the name of Jesus and move forward in my calling so thank you🙏🏽✝️.
God saved me from numerology and psychedelics i fasted and he healed me mentally and physically but i still smoke weed i don’t know if it’s a problem or if it isn’t .. i don’t get drunk i don’t drink whatsoever.
“Focusing on God evrything else is unappealing “ 🔥🙏🏽

been off weed for almost a year. Glory to God

I will pray for your release from that relationship. All things are working together for good for those who love him and are called for his purpose. You will overcome. That battle is already won. Continue speaking to the Lord and he will deliver you. Stay strong. God loves you ❤
Natalia De Jesus thank you. I wanna just go into the new year being happy and not like this. I can’t feel like this anymore. I don’t want another day, week, month or year like this. I want to meet new friends. New people. I’m alone atm. With no friends and it’s just hard right now
@@ohhchuta You'll be okay. That's what I'm telling myself as well.
ChuTa God is testing you. You will get through it. I’ve been depressed and alone for 3 years and the 4th year my life changed. The key is never lose faith. Never stop believing that your life will get better. God is all you need.
josh peterson I don’t want to sound like selfish or anything but I don’t want to wait that long... you know? I want something to change.... soon
I’m glad you’re going to be doing a more in depth video about your breakup; I fall deeply too so I can definitely relate to that. Dealt with a situationship breakup that hit hard & I turned to weed bc I didn’t want to face my emotions at all but I had to grab myself out of that for the sake of my family (addiction is a generational curse) & leaning into God is definitely what got me through. but can’t wait for you to share more of your thoughts
Please pray for me. I want to stop for God’s kingdom, and for my family for them to be saved.
@@0vercast7 I definitely will!
"The point is not to just be free from it. Yes, that is a byproduct, but the point is to know Jesus..." such powerful words.
1 Peter 4:10 - "As each has received a gift, use it to serve one another, as good stewards of Gods varied grace. " I know this is off topic....but I had to at least share what I learned yesterday...that each of us has gifts, but the purpose for having those gifts is to serve others. Your music (along with a few other artists) has served me well. Has encouraged me in depression. So please keep making music, and keep doing your blogs, you are stewarding your gift well. God bless :)
At the end of the day it’s really our love for god that keeps us going ! In jc name amen
Props for choosing the path bro... im still learning to let go and let God
Thankyou! This is so needed, in our generation; may we recognize what is spiritually damaging us. May the Holy Spirit guide us.
Also great cool aesthetics.
Just prayed really hard to God to help me with my addictions
Felt really good to pray
I'm not a believer in religion, I'm a believer of God. Trust no man.
What if God took the humble form of man, so that you could learn to Love God and your neighbor as yourself, perhaps you'd be willing to trust the God-man Jesus Christ? Keep seeking God my friend, I pray peace and wisdom for you as you search.
Been going back and forth about weed, really needed to hear this. Thank you for your faithfulness
Hey can you talk about being a Christian and listening to secular music and its impact
Good point 👌
That is on being a Luke warm christian
You can’t listen to secular music, those are demons talking not the rappers. The mix frequencies, and witchcraft within music. Especially those like lil uzi, gunna, Travis Scott, Katy Perry, Arianna grande, post Malone, etc. The lord helped me quit it all this year, thank you Jesus!!
@@sweatcloud3533 very true😇
@@sweatcloud3533 Don't forget Rhiana, Beyonce who is able to perform because of "Sasha Fierce" and Lady Gaga....and of course there are many others.
Hey Montell, i’m a newer subscriber and i found out about your channel through the “how i broke my pornography addiction” video. i just wanted you to know that this channel is such a blessing to me and the rest of your subscribers. i was starting to believe that there was no god and that i was in life alone. your video’s brought back the lords fire in my heart and i’m so grateful to be in the position i’m in right now, thank you
Good Word bro!
ha bro my friend letitia was just telling me about u!
This brought tears to my eyes. A video made for me where I am in my life. Thank you brother.
Thank you for your inspiring words. I am in the process of finding God and dropping my vices (smoking and drinking). It helps when you know someone went through the same thing, and got out of it. Thank you, God Bless you.
Montell, this message is to you. Thank you. When I watched this video I saw myself. I make music, I make film and I’ve had a passion for it since I was 9. I smoke so much weed because of the same reasons you described, I was saved 3 years ago and have had a battle with weed since, my phone has scripture to help me. My friends smoke so much weed, as well I struggle to make my content now because I want to make content (music and film ) for the kingdom. everything else you said resonated with me on a deep level. Thank you brother and thank you God. ❤️
have a similar testimony to you. keep following Jesus , setting an example to others who see this. i'm 15 , and i've been through so much partying and sinful nature , and seeing someone who has a similar story as me lets me know how much more amazing God is.
Now we are 17 and following Jesus! I also gave my life to Christ Jesus at 14( turned 15 in June)✝️🥺❤️
Bro thank you. I am working on surrending smoking weed as I have been using it HEAVILY heavily heavily to cope for the last 6 years. Not looking forward to withdrawals and irritability and all the other glorious emotions I'll be facing as they rise to the surface in due time, but I pray that I can feel whole as I turn to God to fill that void. I appreciate your words so much, you said many things that hit my heart. Thank you for putting in time and thought to create this content.
You will be ok I smoked for 30 years and stop will not go back ever.
Can I get some prayers please? I’ve been smoking since the age of 13 and have been influenced by sin since then. I’m 26 and still habitually smoking. I need help stopping by the grace of God I will.
Same hardest part lately is whenever I decide to take a break I struggle developing an appetite and feel the need to get high again just so I can eat which is terrible beyond this point , I also live with my best friend who is 3 years younger than me and he just got into smoking weed and sometimes I'd always mention how I'm so over it because I started smoking it from the age of 15 and I'm 22 now it's not helping anymore or fun i just feel stuck and lazy all the time
I've been battling weed & alcohol because I've been falling into my feelings to drown in them. I hate when that happens. I need God more than my addictions.
‘Feeling like my burdens falling on me buh i know i will cast them upon Thee’..this aint too hard for You🥺🌹..itll be ight man
I love that song.
I'm trying to get closer to God this past month and smoking is a big thing I want to stop doing...this video gives me hope that Jesus will get me through anything.
Get that out of your system. Just deny your flesh and walk in your spirit. DONT PICK UP THE BLUNT, IT'S NOT WORTH IT. Call to Jesus and He will guide your steps :)
Yes brother I stopped hanging around people that was lukewarm and my life has been so much better Amen and Amen
Lord I pray for deliverance from this weed addiction
Can you do one on friendships and what a godly friendship looks like?
I’m 16 heavy heavy smoker. I feel guilty about it. I try to stop but can’t but my faith is growing ❤️
Thank you for this video God has been calling me to stop smoking and it’s hard because it’s everywhere now and I talk to God and read my Bible everyday to get deeper with God and turn from my sinful way of living
Been constantly thinking of packing a bowl of weed, I'm so glad I flushed it down the toilet. Man thank you so much for this video, I feel encouraged instead of feeling like it's a struggle to quit I feel like I should celebrate quitting and being free.
Still such a relevant message 2yrs later…thank you Monty
related to this so much thank you God and thank you montell. you are truly an inspiration and i love how u keep God first in it all
One of the realest fam. You're videos have helped me plenty.
"I can love like really strongly and I can be like really..." I felt that
I would love for you to talk more in depth about your relationship and how you were able to overcome it. How you were able to heal from your past and not let it in prison you!!!
I appreciate you being this transparent. People don’t get how imperfect we are until they really see it. Because, yeah we hear stories but pictures tell more of it.
I admire your passion for God that you make content like this. Feels really real and something I personally connect to
i can relate to your ENTIRE testimony, down to being called to ministry through music. Still learning how to hear His voice. You inspire me, God bless
I just smoked last night, but I know it was wrong. Your video is an inspiration to continue seeking god.
Man this was so good! I defiantly felt God. I subbed!
Bro! how you take your videos is unreal! & thank you for being so real and speaking truth. I needed to see this video
Honestly, can we talk about this set up for a minute...? Like, the candle, the audio, the setting, outside... It feels like I'm chilling with you sitting on the chair on the other side of the table.
🎯🎯🎯
I am so thankful I found this video today. Thank you.
WOW fish , thank you so much for letting the Lord use you ! YOU HAVE LITERALLY NO IDEA HOW YOU JUS IMPACTED ME IN MORE WAYS THAN ONE. I pray you stay rooted in God as you definitely inspired me thank you so much our stories are soo so similar! Thank you for sharing
YOOOOO! God bless u G. Jesus is the best LIKE FOREAL!! Jesus saved me from porn and weed and alcohol.. Jesus is the ultimate thing ever. there is NO better than Him.
Am on the journey of quitting weed(now 4 days) to create space for more of God, My girlfriend broke up with me like a week ago because I would be telling him about the Bible's teaching and she would get angry because she felt like I was preaching to her...I pray to God to help me go through this and I pray for a God fearing woman whom I can start a family with,,.... thanks for this video bro
Keep it up. And keep going as God leads. Keep encouraging people, God bless. Amen!
So powerful bro! God bless you and keep you in God health all the days of your life and prosper you!
Bro, you’re really a blessing, may Jesus Christ continues to work through you
I just gave my life fully and completely to God, and I'm high right now.
100% love this video/agree. Been putting off less things that aren’t of God and getting in studying the word with others and been having my greatest season of growth.
More video like this please.. love the rawness
When we run all out towards Jesus, we can't be running for anything else. Keep running, brother. Praying for you 🙏
COME BACK TO GOD Montell!!! 🙏🙏🙏🙏🙏🙏
God bless you bro!! You inspire me to keep pushing everyday man . ❤️💯
Thank you so much for your videos and music; has helped me so much on my journey with God. You are a good man.
Much love Montell, from southern California God bless you.
I love your view on God and can relate to your story a lot. Your videos have helped me and strengthened my faith in God.
I used to use weed to escape too ... But now I feel like I've gotten such a hunger for god and his presence and any time I have consumed (edibles) I use it to go deeper in my devos or I'll write worship and use it to get deeper in his presence... If I'm wrong I pray he reveales it to me ... Anyone else experience this
Same for me... I just don't get it.
I feel this man, I have a similar story.Thanks for sharing.
You are so right !!! God bless you and stay strong in the word of God and in your relationship with god NO MATTER WHAT👏🏽💯💗
Man I love your transparency cuz we need that today🤦🏽♂️💯. I just found my way back to God recently n I find that being honest & open is the best way to be free/delivered in the name of Jesus and move forward in my calling so thank you🙏🏽✝️.
glad that i found your channel. love your videos

Thank you Montell, God has freed me from smoking weed too 🙏🏼🙌🏼
