    Give me strength Lord Jesus. I’m struggling providing for my children. I will keep faith. I have two beautiful boys both have special needs. I’m overwhelmed because they require so much from me every month is a struggle to not end up on the streets with my boys. Lord restore my faith. I’m so tired Lord Jesus of constantly struggling to pay bills and struggling to buy groceries. Ashamed because I’m failing as a mother. Please Lord continue to give me strength.❤️

      Keep your faith even when times get hard my mom is struggling to raise me and my sister and as two teenage girls going through high school it’s tough. This account may look like I am a guy but this is my dad’s old account I took it over. But anyway Jesus sees you

      I’m a teen too bro I’m 17 and I’m 4 months clean :). Literally just repent truly and surrender to Jesus. I had a cussing problem too and as soon as I got saved, Jesus took those two and more away in the blink of an eye. Just pray, pray, and pray bro. God bless.

      “No temptation has overtaken you that is not common to man. God is faithful, and he will not let you be tempted beyond your ability, but with the temptation he will also provide the way of escape, that you may be able to endure it.”
      ‭‭1 Corinthians‬ ‭10‬:‭13‬ ‭ESV‬‬
      “For we do not have a high priest who is unable to sympathize with our weaknesses, but one who in every respect has been tempted as we are, yet without sin. Let us then with confidence draw near to the throne of grace, that we may receive mercy and find grace to help in time of need.”
      ‭‭Hebrews‬ ‭4‬:‭15‬-‭16‬ ‭ESV‬‬
      Both of these verses prove this: that we all will deal with temptation (this is no sin). But in times that we do face temptation, we have been given a way out! To understand how, we look at Christ. He understands us fully, being tempted in every regard as we are. The verse above gives us the key on how to beat temptation when it says: “draw near to the throne of God that we may receive mercy and find grace to help in time of need”. Whenever temptation comes, understand this: you have been given authority to overcome it, not in your flesh, but because of He who is in you, who has overcome the world! And two, that you MUST go to the Lord. Shame and guilt are of the devil, for we know that there is no condemnation for those who are in Christ (Roman’s 8:1). The Lord wants you to come to Him, you are His child in need! He will never leave you how He found you, for we know that those who come to Christ are a new creation (2 Corinthians 5:17). From personal experience, you must remain hopeful that you can be set free. If your mindset is that you are still in chains, you will not be able to walk in freedom. But of course, we know that because of Christ, we have been made free brother!!🥳😁🙏🏼 May the Lord bless you!

      “No temptation has overtaken you that is not common to man. God is faithful, and he will not let you be tempted beyond your ability, but with the temptation he will also provide the way of escape, that you may be able to endure it.”
      ‭‭1 Corinthians‬ ‭10‬:‭13‬ ‭ESV‬‬
      “For we do not have a high priest who is unable to sympathize with our weaknesses, but one who in every respect has been tempted as we are, yet without sin. Let us then with confidence draw near to the throne of grace, that we may receive mercy and find grace to help in time of need.”
      ‭‭Hebrews‬ ‭4‬:‭15‬-‭16‬ ‭ESV‬‬
      From these verses, we can gather these things: that although all of us will deal with temptation, we will be given a way out! Not only that, but no temptation will be too powerful to overcome us! This is because of He who is in us, who has overcome the world: “Little children, you are from God and have overcome them, for he who is in you is greater than he who is in the world.” 1 John‬ ‭4‬:‭4‬ ‭ESV‬‬ In order to understand how to escape, turn to Christ, who is understanding of our temptation because He too was tempted in every regard. The key is in the verse above, which says: “ draw near to the throne of grace, that we may receive mercy and find grace to help in a time of need”. To overcome temptation, we must flee into the Lord! Meet Him at the throne that He would give you the mercy and grace to help you. We know that feelings of guilt and shame that prevent us from coming to the Lord are not of Him, for it says in His Word that “there is no therefore no condemnation for those who are in Christ Jesus” (Romans 8:1). You are His child in need! He will never leave you how He found you, for we know that once you are in Christ, you are a new creation: “Therefore, if anyone is in Christ, he is a new creation. The old has passed away; behold, the new has come.” 2 Corinthians‬ ‭5‬:‭17‬. I understand where you are, and from experience can say that you MUST remain hopeful (especially in Christ), that you are freed. If you remain believing that you are chained to this habit, it will be harder to walk in freedom. Adopt the mindset that you have been made free!!! (Because you have been😙). May the Lord bless you brother!!🙏🏼

    Nothing to add and yet so much I’ve gained here while listening. I find myself not enjoying life when others want me to do what they want and be who they think I should be and not accepting me for the person that I am in this day. Because I have the joy of the Lord they think and see me as less (I think) than I was previously.

    “I know how to live on almost nothing or with everything. I have learned the secret of living in every situation, whether it is with a full stomach or empty, with plenty or little. For I can do everything through Christ, who gives me strength.”
    ‭‭Philippians‬ ‭4‬:‭12‬-‭13
    What you said at 28:33 resonates with what Paul says here.

Then when we're trusting in Jesus Christ and Him crucified the works come as the fruit of that!

      @humgryhaitian17 18 днів тому +1

      Hey brother I was there too. What you have to do is learn to let go of the sin instead of fight it. Theres still a part of you that wants it, so you have to let go and literally fall back on jesus. Maybe what you let go of is your phone or tv, maybe some friends that are influencing you badly. Jesus tells us not to worry about what the future will bring because he is in control. So dont worry about whats going to happen if you arent always on your phone or what people will say to you if you're trying to change because at the end of the day its just a distraction. I hope these words help.

    Really glad this video was recommended to me. I was mainly watching travel videos, which is why it's a surprise that this popped up on my recommended feed. I was trying to get back to the Christian life. My dad is a senior pastor for as long as I can remember, I basically grew up in church. I got tired of it and moved on with my life without God. Recently, I've been trying to get back to reading Bible, but I was never able to. This is the closest I can get to reading Bible atm. I just wanna go up to the mountains while playing this video in the background. I would like to request to please do a podcast where you converse with another person talking about Christian life. I kept saying "Christian life" but what I really meant is that I want to grow spiritually again and be actually born again this time. I also want to hear you explore the stoicism philosophy and how that affects the Christian life, for better or worse.

    *Larry Burkett's book on "Giving and Tithing" drew me closer to God and helped my spirituality. 2020 was a year I literally lived it. I cashed in my life savings and gave it all away. My total giving amounted to 40,000 dollars. Everyone thought I was delusional. Today, 1 receive 85,000 dollars every two months. I have a property in Calabasas, CA, and travel a lot.
