I have been struggling with addiction and I recognize that my relationship with sex and substances were trauma responses to what I went through as a child. I was molested as a child and it affected my sexuality and led to sexual sin and I have been struggling with what I am dealing with. I know the Lord is calling me out of this but I pray for a complete and total deliverance in Jesus name
I am taking a 3 day camping trip this spring break and hopefully i can use this opportunity to get closer to God. No social media, just the mountains, a river, a waterfall and the bible. can’t wait to see appreciate Gods creation
I was listening to his testimony and it tripped me out, because I am in 8th grade rn and I was struggling with pornography. That could have been me but I gave my addiction to God and now I am free of watching it and now I am living for God!!! Praise God!!!!
Yes God freed me of pornography as well. One thing God showed me is that when you feed your spirit more than your flesh, temptation is easier to resist. Ways to feed your spirit is changing your music and be careful of what you watch. If there is something that causes you to sin, cut it off. Your eyes and ears are outlets to your spirit. So be mindful of what you watch. Amen I love you guys I pray for anyone who is struggling with pornography or just any addiction, in JESUS’ name the chains will break!!! “Be sober, be vigilant; because your adversary the devil, as a roaring lion, walketh about, seeking whom he may devour:” 1 Peter 5:8 KJV “Thy word have I hid in mine heart, That I might not sin against thee.” Psalm 119:11 KJV “And if thy right hand offend thee, cut it off, and cast it from thee: for it is profitable for thee that one of thy members should perish, and not that thy whole body should be cast into hell.” Matthew 5:30 KJV
Me too man. I hate it. And when i do it i hate myself. Which i shouldn't do. But i can't help feeling worthless. But then i remember that the wise will fall seven times but will always get up God bless you and i hope you break off the chain of struggle binding us even in christ.

Wow bro! I absolutely love and can relate to your story. Adderall to stay up and get work done. Led to meth. Pain pills. Alcohol. Weed. Sex with any and every woman. On the streets, plus in and out of jail and the hospital for withdrawals. I've been 4 years clean. Jesus is SO GOOD. I couldn't imagine living without Jesus ever again. I appreciate you bro. Its always so encouraging to hear a similar story. 🖤🙌 Ps beautiful rainbow. 🖤🙌
I love this man so much. I’ve struggled with serious drug addiction for ears. Even intravenous abuse. Dropped out of college because of it. Working a 15 an hr job. Barely getting by. Family still barely trusts me, but it’ll be 1yr in November on the 14th. Praise Jesus for opening my eyes before I ended up like most of my “buddies”. I’ve lost 19 friends to overdoses and other drug related accidents. I wish I could’ve been the voice of reason like alex but I was just as bad if not worse. God is good. It’s hard to see the light when you’re constantly around darkness. But it is there. Thank you for this video alex. It gives me hope to keep going.

Jesus is love my dearest friend Though I speak with the tongues of men and of angels, and have not charity, I am become as sounding brass, or a tinkling cymbal How are you doing Ange?
God has saved me from all my addictions. Pornography, cigarettes, alcohol, drugs, partying. I used to bite my nails since I was about 5 and now I haven’t bitten them in 3 months. God is good!
Wonderful Testimony, I pray that anyone who has gone through the same sees this and is convicted to come to the Lord. I myself went through a similar situation and this year I committed to living for the Lord
After I was baptized I was beginning my walk with God but I had distorted thinking which isolated me from my Christian friends. Afterwards I went back to pornography and drugs which was triggered by a need to bring myself down from drinking caffeine. It continued the year after while hanging out with the wrong person. God was so merciful though. He continued reaching out to me using my friends and in the midst of the emotional storm and the vicious cycle, God just calm the seas and gave me a clarity of thought. It was like a checkpoint of sorts and gave me a chance to choose to stay in this destructive path or choose Christ. The thing about addiction is once it gets a hold of you it keeps you captive. When you choose God there is a sense of freedom. You can choose to stay or leave.
Amen! Pray for me family I'm struggling with lust, porn and weed right now I was sober for almost 11 months an fell back into smoking. An now I've been smoking every day for the last 3-4 months an so far I'm 2 days smoke free and 3 days without porn may God give me strength and the will to get thru it. I just find it hard like you said my flesh still craves it but I know its wrong. Jesus help me!
@@RcFlashlight thank you! 🙏 I just achieved 1 month sober last Thursday, but I'm still struggling with lust an porn. I just have to give my struggles to God daily. An lean more on the spirit to guide me than my flesh
@@shadygrizzly I’m struggling with lust as well, but recently I have asked God to free me from it, and I have been free for 2 days now. My flesh still craves just like you said. It will be difficult at times, but please stay strong man. God will help us get through.
@@RcFlashlight Amen! I just made it 4 days an fell back into it over the weekend. It's a daily struggle! Especially these days the way the devil is pushing sex and fornication like it's the norm. It's crazy!
Amen bro I’m 18 I’ve went through the alcohol and weed during my high school years I’m graduated now and I’ve turned to Christ God has broken the addiction and bondage ALL GLORY TO GOD!!!
God knew I was dealing with this the past two days and gave me this video. I can’t believe it. It’s been so hard when I was younger to deal with the temptation but I’m free now. Thank God
Praying for you this morning! The temptation seems to come back to me from time to time, but my hope and strength is in God and we can withstand the temptation!
You know what’s beautiful about us being sad when we “ fail “ God , that we actually care that we failed God . We develop a love for Him . Remember when you weren’t saved ? You didn’t care . You didn’t even know God existed . So rest in the thought today that God is doing a work in you even though it doesn’t seem like it . ( Philippians 2:13 , Philippians 1:6 , Psalm 138:8)
This is a beautiful testimony, I'm glad you shared it with us. I'm still struggling with sin, but I have faith that God is not done with me yet! The ending showed a beautiful message. God's promise 🌈When you ask for forgiveness from a sincere heart ❤️ He will always forgive.
Thanks for sharing your testimony brother, 40 years ago that was me! Praise God that he sought us when we were not even thinking about him! Man, your parents must have done some heavy intercession on your behalf! To God be all the glory! You got my sub 😃
Dearly beloved, your testimony and mine are so similar. I was angry at the world, addicted to porn, and ashamed of myself. And it wasn't until drugs almost destroyed my mind that I came to realize that I was in a wicked and unspeakably evil world and that one mistep would take me to a forever punishment called hell. But in Jesus is salvation. Isn't that something? A hiding place for the weak and a stronghold against the forces of evil is my God. Praise God, Alleluia. I was in the ditch, literally, and he raised me to the mountaintop. I was broken and he fixed me. This poor man cried and Gkd heard me and delivered me from all my fears. Thank you Almighty Father.
hey Alex, I grew up in a very atheist household being told that there was no god, no heaven or hell and that’s what I believed most of my life. I have a very similar story as yours where I was exposed to porn and drugs at a very young age and did get addicted. Once I hit college all of a sudden God wouldn’t leave my head and I’ve spent 3 years researching God, Jesus , and the Holy Spirit and it sparked something in me. I went to a couple different churches just to see for myself and had a couple meeting with people from the churches and let me tell you, when I first went to a church where they were singing worship music, I instantly started crying and that’s the moment I knew I wanted to concert to Christianity because of what I felt in that church. And what I felt was 100% God and he’s been seeking me for years and I would just ignore it. Im still in the process of converting, I’m doing this alone and none of my family really know about it so I wanted to reach out to you. As Im watching your testimony I wanted to ask a question. You said you gave your life to the Lord and I was wondering if you’d be able to give more information on how you did that. What were the steps you took to give your life to Him because it’s something I really want just don’t know how. If you could reply to this comment it would mean the world to me or you can direct message me on Instagram @marlie_donaldson Thank you & Bless you and your family
To give your life to Jesus 1. believe in God and his son Jesus. Christ as your personal saviour 2.accept Jesus as your lord and personal saviour. For example:dear lord, I know I'm a sinner, but you died for those sins, I welcome you into my heart as my personal saviour, thank you for dying for my sins so I can be forgiven. 3. repent for your sins: Example: lord, I know I have sinned , please forgive me in Jesus name. 34.join a church or Christain community as alternative, a TV or online service Example of pastors: Mike Todd, Benny hinn, pastor E.A adeboye 5.get baptized by an ordained minister. 6.pray to receive holy spirit and welcome him into your heart. 7.pray for godly friendships and relationships. Your story touched me and I decided to write this message to help you accept Christ. Remember Jesus loves you ❤️❤️
incredible testimony. i am so glad people like you exist to actively share and teach the gospel. God bless you and your family. as for the rain, in Botswana “pula” means rain and rain is a blessing. be blessed!
Of all of my shortcomings, lust/porn is my worst. I'm asking God every day to take this evil from my heart. Sometimes it feels like he wants me to beat this thing on my own, but I can't do it by myself. Lord help me break this chain on my life and be the man you want me to be.
That rainbow at the end. ❤️ For anyone reading this, I ask for your prayers for my ex fiance. 🙏🏻 He's struggling with addictions to alcohol, drugs, & porn (potentially things I don't know about). He also has Church hurt, trauma, etc. These strongholds have brought upon him major anxiety & depression. He's even reached the point of doubting his Salvation. 🥺 In the end, this destructive combo put an unmanageable stress & strain on us & our relationship, which separated us. I'm absolutely devastated, & I really believe these things killed, stole, & destroyed an incredible gift from God. We couldn't be more perfect for each other outside of these things. I know he loves God & wants to conquer these demons. A more incredible gift than ever calling him mine again would be him being delivered. Pray he finds help, healing, & Christ Jesus again. He needs a miracle encounter with God. To be filled again with His Spirit! I have hope that God will fulfill His promises in his life. Thank you for partnering with me in this hope.
This is beautiful. It's beautiful to see the hand of God move in our lives. He meets us where we are and picks us up. He takes us back to His fold. I thank God for what He's done in your life and no doubt He'll move in all of our lives as well
@@LoveHope-mi4lx friend, I don’t know exactly what you need saving from, but rest assured that if you’ve cried out to God your prayers have not fallen on deaf ears. He hears and is aware of your pain. Keep trusting Him and giving everything over to Him. “This poor man cried, and the Lord heard him and saved him out of all his troubles.” Psalm 34:6 ESV
My parents didn't let me unless they knew the parents well. I was always angry with them for being "strict" but now that I'm older and mature I am so so thankful for the pain they saved me
wow, this spoke a lot to me and my life and how I struggled with pornography and I'm proud to say God has set me free even though my flesh still wants those things my spirit is renewed and my soul wants god more. I will be sharing this with a couple of my friends because they struggle with drug addiction also. THANK YOU FOR YOUR STORY AND WHO YOU OVERCAME IT. 👏🙌🏽❤️✝️
@@LoveHope-mi4lx And I may not know what you're going through specifically, but I do know that in Jesus Christ, there is sooo much mercy from God The Father. God is gracious, He is kind, and He is abounding in steadfast love. It's okay, rather, IT IS THE BEST thing you can ever do, to surrender to Jesus as Lord and Savior (that is, if you're not already saved), because through repenting and trusting in Jesus and His finished work (His death on the cross for your sins & His resurrection by the power of God), we are saved from sin and its consequences, and we are made right with God, adopted into His family as sons and daughters! But if you are already saved, please know that what Christ has started in you, He will, without a doubt, finish it. You are secured in Christ and His finished work, so do not be discouraged, and keep fighting the good fight of faith, God is with you, and He will be your strength
@@patrickkpodo5846 I struggle with this still. I’m thinking about a fast and much prayer. I pray God releases me from this. Please pray for me as well. Thank you for being kind. God bless. Jesus is Lord.
No matter what we are going through the Lord is always making a way for us and the Lord our Gods mighty hand will work and lift us up no matter what addiction we have the Lord will take the battle that we try to fight and the Lord our God will always be victorious
praise the Lord. thank you so much for sharing this Alex; this truly proves that God’s faithfulness is so great and He can save ANYONE. Jesus is our only hope. ❤️
Please pray that God has mercy and saves me. And that I surrender all And that I encounter him Yeah there’s free will but prayer can be effective Laura
Watching this made me ball. Knowing that I was here. Addicted to drugs and now I am cleaned and saved and transformed by the blood of Jesus Christ. The love, forgiveness, and mercy I am graced with everyday is unfathomable. Our God is so good. I love Him and I thank Him for my new life. And the new life all of my brothers and sisters in Christ live.
It took me to fail in my last relationship with my kids mother to really reflect on my life and losing my family. Within that time I found God and I'm currently on my journey to get better and to live graciously through God. I pray every morning when I wake up. I thank God for being alive and putting me on this earth at the end of the day
Thanks for sharing brother. I struggled with porn addiction for over 10 years. 5 years as a believer. I would give in to the slightest temptation always praying to break free. Had no success for years. There was no supernatural experience but I believe that confession helped. Only by the grace of God do I no longer open a incognito tab to search for it. I have truly been set free not only from addiction but temptation as well. Something that seemed so impossible. 2 years free and my relationship with God and people has improved so much!
I found this video by chance, I have been struggling with porn addiction for a while and I felt defeated and almost gave up, but this video gives me hope that God is not done with me yet, thank you 🙏
You know I was embarrassed that I knew I needed to watch this video because I struggle with porn. But this made me feel better. I did the same thing I went a chapter a day or sometimes even two. I did it through all 4 of the gospels and other books and I pray before I start. I still struggle here and there but I'd like to say I'm sOmewhaaat free from it? It's a battle every day but I know God goes before me.
Try to lift up your right hand. Please just do it. Have you done that? Do you see how with a single thought you commanded your body? You are the boss and controller, not your lust. If you can control your body, you can stay strong and not fall into the trap of lust and temptation!!
HE done the same for me.
JESUS broke the chains of my meth,porn and gambling adiction.
5 years clean of them all.
Praise GOD.

After I was baptized I was beginning my walk with God but I had distorted thinking which isolated me from my Christian friends. Afterwards I went back to pornography and drugs which was triggered by a need to bring myself down from drinking caffeine. It continued the year after while hanging out with the wrong person.
God was so merciful though. He continued reaching out to me using my friends and in the midst of the emotional storm and the vicious cycle, God just calm the seas and gave me a clarity of thought. It was like a checkpoint of sorts and gave me a chance to choose to stay in this destructive path or choose Christ.
The thing about addiction is once it gets a hold of you it keeps you captive. When you choose God there is a sense of freedom. You can choose to stay or leave.
Jesus I hope to see the day I am unbound. Unbound from the world ❤️
Amen! Pray for me family I'm struggling with lust, porn and weed right now I was sober for almost 11 months an fell back into smoking. An now I've been smoking every day for the last 3-4 months an so far I'm 2 days smoke free and 3 days without porn may God give me strength and the will to get thru it. I just find it hard like you said my flesh still craves it but I know its wrong. Jesus help me!
Praying for you brother. God will help you get through this.
@@RcFlashlight thank you! 🙏 I just achieved 1 month sober last Thursday, but I'm still struggling with lust an porn. I just have to give my struggles to God daily. An lean more on the spirit to guide me than my flesh
@@shadygrizzly I’m struggling with lust as well, but recently I have asked God to free me from it, and I have been free for 2 days now. My flesh still craves just like you said. It will be difficult at times, but please stay strong man. God will help us get through.
@@RcFlashlight Amen! I just made it 4 days an fell back into it over the weekend. It's a daily struggle! Especially these days the way the devil is pushing sex and fornication like it's the norm. It's crazy!
@@shadygrizzly how are you doing brother?
Amen bro I’m 18 I’ve went through the alcohol and weed during my high school years I’m graduated now and I’ve turned to Christ God has broken the addiction and bondage ALL GLORY TO GOD!!!
All for His glory 🙌🏾🤍
God knew I was dealing with this the past two days and gave me this video. I can’t believe it. It’s been so hard when I was younger to deal with the temptation but I’m free now. Thank God
Praying for you this morning! The temptation seems to come back to me from time to time, but my hope and strength is in God and we can withstand the temptation!
Same here sister. Can’t wait till I’m free. God bless you sister ❤️
Please pray that God has mercy and saves me. And that I surrender all Yeah there’s free will but prayer can be effective

Dude me and you have such a similar testimony. I almost died on adderall and Xanax. The Lord will set you free amen🙏🏻❤️
He’s a human. Just like us, and God slowly showed him, slowly loved him.
Thank you Amen Alex! Love you brother.
You know what’s beautiful about us being sad when we “ fail “ God , that we actually care that we failed God . We develop a love for Him . Remember when you weren’t saved ? You didn’t care . You didn’t even know God existed . So rest in the thought today that God is doing a work in you even though it doesn’t seem like it . ( Philippians 2:13 , Philippians 1:6 , Psalm 138:8)
Praise God. He saves us. God bless.🙏🙏✝️
This is a beautiful testimony, I'm glad you shared it with us. I'm still struggling with sin, but I have faith that God is not done with me yet! The ending showed a beautiful message. God's promise 🌈When you ask for forgiveness from a sincere heart ❤️ He will always forgive.
Amen! Same for me💗
Thank you for telling us your story 🙏🫂
When we testify what we are really saying is..God did it for me, so he can do it for you
Keep up the good work alex; there is a crown
Amen
Beautiful
God bless you and your children!
The rainbow at the end tied the whole message up perfectly including how it rained during and then stopped after 😭💯 wow praise God
With purity and lustful struggles, I needed this video. I continue to pray and read, but I need this. God bless you and your testimony.
I really needed this. Can’t wait for the day I will defeat those addictions in the beautiful name of JESUS. 🔥
Love you bro! Keep being obedient. Your content will change the world!💯
Thank you so much for your vulnerability!! Your obedience is someone else’s deliverance.
Please pray that God has mercy and saves me. And that I surrender all Yeah there’s free will but prayer can be effective

Mans raising those kids right. Mud and cars far better than an iPad
Thanks for sharing your testimony brother, 40 years ago that was me! Praise God that he sought us when we were not even thinking about him! Man, your parents must have done some heavy intercession on your behalf! To God be all the glory! You got my sub 😃
Dearly beloved, your testimony and mine are so similar. I was angry at the world, addicted to porn, and ashamed of myself. And it wasn't until drugs almost destroyed my mind that I came to realize that I was in a wicked and unspeakably evil world and that one mistep would take me to a forever punishment called hell. But in Jesus is salvation. Isn't that something? A hiding place for the weak and a stronghold against the forces of evil is my God. Praise God, Alleluia. I was in the ditch, literally, and he raised me to the mountaintop. I was broken and he fixed me. This poor man cried and Gkd heard me and delivered me from all my fears. Thank you Almighty Father.
Your honesty and transparency are amazing. God bless you, my brother.
He did the same thing to me amen thanks Jesus
hey Alex, I grew up in a very atheist household being told that there was no god, no heaven or hell and that’s what I believed most of my life. I have a very similar story as yours where I was exposed to porn and drugs at a very young age and did get addicted. Once I hit college all of a sudden God wouldn’t leave my head and I’ve spent 3 years researching God, Jesus , and the Holy Spirit and it sparked something in me. I went to a couple different churches just to see for myself and had a couple meeting with people from the churches and let me tell you, when I first went to a church where they were singing worship music, I instantly started crying and that’s the moment I knew I wanted to concert to Christianity because of what I felt in that church. And what I felt was 100% God and he’s been seeking me for years and I would just ignore it.
Im still in the process of converting, I’m doing this alone and none of my family really know about it so I wanted to reach out to you.
As Im watching your testimony I wanted to ask a question.
You said you gave your life to the Lord and I was wondering if you’d be able to give more information on how you did that. What were the steps you took to give your life to Him because it’s something I really want just don’t know how.
If you could reply to this comment it would mean the world to me or you can direct message me on Instagram @marlie_donaldson
Thank you & Bless you and your family
hey 👋🏻 did u give your life to Jesus yet?
To give your life to Jesus
1. believe in God and his son Jesus.
Christ as your personal saviour
2.accept Jesus as your lord and personal saviour.
For example:dear lord, I know I'm a sinner, but you died for those sins, I welcome you into my heart as my personal saviour, thank you for dying for my sins so I can be forgiven.
3. repent for your sins:
Example: lord, I know I have sinned , please forgive me in Jesus name.
34.join a church or Christain community as alternative, a TV or online service
Example of pastors: Mike Todd, Benny hinn, pastor E.A adeboye
5.get baptized by an ordained minister.
6.pray to receive holy spirit and welcome him into your heart.
7.pray for godly friendships and relationships.
Your story touched me and I decided to write this message to help you accept Christ.
Remember Jesus loves you ❤️❤️
Please pray that God has mercy and saves me. And that I surrender all Yeah there’s free will but prayer can be effective

Thank you for sharing!
and for showing the rainbow….which is a sign of Gods promise
incredible testimony. i am so glad people like you exist to actively share and teach the gospel. God bless you and your family. as for the rain, in Botswana “pula” means rain and rain is a blessing. be blessed!
Amen 🙏 God is always able.
Thank you for this 🙏🏽 God is in you, never stop speeding his word
Of all of my shortcomings, lust/porn is my worst. I'm asking God every day to take this evil from my heart. Sometimes it feels like he wants me to beat this thing on my own, but I can't do it by myself. Lord help me break this chain on my life and be the man you want me to be.
That rainbow at the end. ❤️ For anyone reading this, I ask for your prayers for my ex fiance. 🙏🏻 He's struggling with addictions to alcohol, drugs, & porn (potentially things I don't know about). He also has Church hurt, trauma, etc. These strongholds have brought upon him major anxiety & depression. He's even reached the point of doubting his Salvation. 🥺 In the end, this destructive combo put an unmanageable stress & strain on us & our relationship, which separated us. I'm absolutely devastated, & I really believe these things killed, stole, & destroyed an incredible gift from God. We couldn't be more perfect for each other outside of these things. I know he loves God & wants to conquer these demons. A more incredible gift than ever calling him mine again would be him being delivered. Pray he finds help, healing, & Christ Jesus again. He needs a miracle encounter with God. To be filled again with His Spirit! I have hope that God will fulfill His promises in his life. Thank you for partnering with me in this hope.
Praise Jesus!
This is beautiful. It's beautiful to see the hand of God move in our lives. He meets us where we are and picks us up. He takes us back to His fold. I thank God for what He's done in your life and no doubt He'll move in all of our lives as well
Please pray that God has mercy and saves me. And that I surrender all Yeah there’s free will but prayer can be effective

@@LoveHope-mi4lx friend, I don’t know exactly what you need saving from, but rest assured that if you’ve cried out to God your prayers have not fallen on deaf ears. He hears and is aware of your pain. Keep trusting Him and giving everything over to Him.
“This poor man cried, and the Lord heard him and saved him out of all his troubles.”
Psalm 34:6 ESV
Me too... Thank you Jesus... The Name above all Name🙌
He’s not gonna let his kids have sleep overs now.
My parents didn't let me unless they knew the parents well. I was always angry with them for being "strict" but now that I'm older and mature I am so so thankful for the pain they saved me
Yep. My parents too. Their strict rules and guidelines helped me a lot. I am grateful for that
In all honesty, you can really trust your kids at other peoples houses like that.
He's the right host parent, though
Good. It will save his children.
GOD BLESS IN JESUS NAME AMEN🙏✝️
wow, this spoke a lot to me and my life and how I struggled with pornography and I'm proud to say God has set me free even though my flesh still wants those things my spirit is renewed and my soul wants god more. I will be sharing this with a couple of my friends because they struggle with drug addiction also. THANK YOU FOR YOUR STORY AND WHO YOU OVERCAME IT. 👏🙌🏽❤️✝️
Please pray that God has mercy and saves me. And that I surrender all Yeah there’s free will but prayer can be effective
Laura
I pray that anyone who viewed this and is struggling may find peace and be free from sin... God bless you all...
And thank you for this vid!
I really needed this today, I think this is going to help me make a change
When you said that you struggled with it for about a year but you were still free, that brought tears to my eyes thinking about my own struggles
This is awesome, thank you for sharing your testimony ❤️😊
I love it how the lord pieces everything together so beautifully for those that love him.
AMEN AMEN AMEN ALEX!!! I’m so glad you shared this part of your testimony brother ❤️
God is truly good, and amazing. No body is more important in life other than god 🙏.
This is a beautiful testimony, all glory to God ❤️
Please pray that God has mercy and saves me. And that I surrender all Yeah there’s free will but prayer can be effective
Laura
@@LoveHope-mi4lx Of course! I'll be praying for you!
@@LoveHope-mi4lx And I may not know what you're going through specifically, but I do know that in Jesus Christ, there is sooo much mercy from God The Father. God is gracious, He is kind, and He is abounding in steadfast love. It's okay, rather, IT IS THE BEST thing you can ever do, to surrender to Jesus as Lord and Savior (that is, if you're not already saved), because through repenting and trusting in Jesus and His finished work (His death on the cross for your sins & His resurrection by the power of God), we are saved from sin and its consequences, and we are made right with God, adopted into His family as sons and daughters! But if you are already saved, please know that what Christ has started in you, He will, without a doubt, finish it. You are secured in Christ and His finished work, so do not be discouraged, and keep fighting the good fight of faith, God is with you, and He will be your strength
The music is so soothing. I love Jesus
I needed this, I struggle with this still and it pains me but this is the advice and push I needed!
Please how are you doing now?
Do you want to talk to someone?
@@patrickkpodo5846 I struggle with this still. I’m thinking about a fast and much prayer. I pray God releases me from this. Please pray for me as well. Thank you for being kind. God bless. Jesus is Lord.
No matter what we are going through the Lord is always making a way for us and the Lord our Gods mighty hand will work and lift us up no matter what addiction we have the Lord will take the battle that we try to fight and the Lord our God will always be victorious
This really did help
It's good to know some people out there sit down like this and speak there word on topics like this
Please pray that God has mercy and saves me. And that I surrender all Yeah there’s free will but prayer can be effective
Laura
Praise Jesus
Thank you so much for your ministry, Alex and Loke!! ❤️
By the rain and the rainbow, I knew The Holy Spirit had a great influence on the words you spoke. God bless you.
no addiction is too big for god!!!!!!
The rain was His tears the rainbow was His promise. Great testimony.
praise the Lord. thank you so much for sharing this Alex; this truly proves that God’s faithfulness is so great and He can save ANYONE. Jesus is our only hope. ❤️
Please pray that God has mercy and saves me. And that I surrender all And that I encounter him
Yeah there’s free will but prayer can be effective

Watching this made me ball. Knowing that I was here. Addicted to drugs and now I am cleaned and saved and transformed by the blood of Jesus Christ. The love, forgiveness, and mercy I am graced with everyday is unfathomable. Our God is so good. I love Him and I thank Him for my new life. And the new life all of my brothers and sisters in Christ live.
Love you dude, Thank you❤️
It took me to fail in my last relationship with my kids mother to really reflect on my life and losing my family. Within that time I found God and I'm currently on my journey to get better and to live graciously through God. I pray every morning when I wake up. I thank God for being alive and putting me on this earth at the end of the day
Beautiful Alex!❤️
Thanks for sharing brother. I struggled with porn addiction for over 10 years. 5 years as a believer. I would give in to the slightest temptation always praying to break free. Had no success for years. There was no supernatural experience but I believe that confession helped. Only by the grace of God do I no longer open a incognito tab to search for it. I have truly been set free not only from addiction but temptation as well. Something that seemed so impossible. 2 years free and my relationship with God and people has improved so much!
🖤:ROMANS 1:16✝️FOR I IM NOT ASHAMED OF THE GOSPEL OF GOD FOR IT IS THE POWER OF GOD FOR SALVATION TO EVERYONE WHO BELIEVES.
Even if you were the only person on earth, Jesus would have died for you. 🥺❤️
I found this video by chance, I have been struggling with porn addiction for a while and I felt defeated and almost gave up, but this video gives me hope that God is not done with me yet, thank you 🙏
Amen God is good be spiritual Amen
You know I was embarrassed that I knew I needed to watch this video because I struggle with porn. But this made me feel better. I did the same thing I went a chapter a day or sometimes even two. I did it through all 4 of the gospels and other books and I pray before I start. I still struggle here and there but I'd like to say I'm sOmewhaaat free from it? It's a battle every day but I know God goes before me.
It comes from His grace, and mercy. Keep praying and giving thanks! Love you!
@@lightcomes2763 I’m getting baptized today! I’m so happy I’ve been saved!
Amen brother that was awesome God bless you and your children
Try to lift up your right hand. Please just do it. Have you done that? Do you see how with a single thought you commanded your body? You are the boss and controller, not your lust. If you can control your body, you can stay strong and not fall into the trap of lust and temptation!!
Wow thank you
I just thank god for letting me be here everyday ! Thank you god because everyday I’m not who I used to be 😭 trust him
Christianity is a big family who helps each other some with hard truth some with soft feelings and some with love… needed this bro
