      My sister in Christ, no lies, i have come across people filled with these foreign spirits in dating, after spending time with them - i was so overwhelmed, i was so condemned, i was crying praying to God asking for forgiveness with ever coming across this person, due to my involvement.
      1 was into Egyptology and had a ton of foreign gods in his place.
      2nd one was gender fluid and has anxiety and depression with identity issues.
      all of these were so overwhelming on my spirit. Both wanted 1 thing and I simply said NOPE. Matthew 12 of 7 demons coming back in with stronger ones got played in my mind and all. 😩

      We inherit so many spiritual curses and bondages because of generational sin. No family is perfect. Once they are renounced and Jesus sets us free we don't have to be apart of the toxicity any longer. I just set very firm boundaries around me and my spiritual family is who I have. Jesus said if you love your mother. father, brother or sister more than me, you are not worthy to serve me. Sexual sin is a sin against yourself and corrupts your mind, body, spirit, emotions. Only Jesus breaks us free from any sinful lifestyle we fall into or inherit. I don't think the "Plandemic" is COVID at all I have always thought it was all the sexual and spiritual abuse sick people perpetrating on infants, children, and innocent victims. Human trafficking is at its highest and the main culprit is the United States. I believe that's the "Pandemic- Plandemic". That's the way of the world.

      Yes it is. I’ve dealt with the same and those urges or demons still creep. Although I had confidence and didn’t have low self esteem it’s the act and sensation it gives to know you can have that release at any time desired with some money. I believe sex transmits spirits or something and becomes hard to control. Just have to acknowledge it’s going to be hard going through with drawls and find hobbies or activities and instead of looking for the feeling of sex rather start relationships with the opposite sex to understand and feel that companionship. Can write a book about it but yes brave man for sharing a story which so many feel ashamed of.

    I felt this testimony on a molecular level. I have been in church all my life and I have always had problems with sexual sin and now for a couple months now I have been falling from prostitutes. Tonight I was with a prostitute and after the Lord spoke to me about her I definitely didnt want to say anything because of how guilty and horrible i felt.. But even in our mess I spoke to her and she began to break down and wail for forgiveness and we both asked the lord for forgiveness and mercy. I'm a mess and a sinner you guys and I take God's mercy for granted. I want to change.

      I am a female who suffered from this in silence. So much stigma and shame surrounded among women who have dealt with this. I too contemplated suicide. It also led me to resent men as in my household I heard offensive sexist language. Hearing that you were a man who struggled and felt unhappy didn't like this is very comforting. Mary Magdalene was a prostitute who became a descipel of Christ she too suffered from sexism. I never want to be a stumbling to men who are serious about God. I believe that the devil tries to mess with relationships between men and women and sexuality. He hates Love marriage and families. What is good of God and sacred. Ephesians for we wrestle not against flesh and blood but cosmic forces of darkness in the heavenly love.

    That is a true honest and brave testimony. What stands out in this for me the most is how he continues to hold to Jesus as his protector against evil and also that he thought of his wife and child and how the consequences of continued sinning in such a way would harm them, harm his family. A man is called by God to protect his family. I wish my husband would have chosen God and us over his lust. He continues to cheat on his present girlfriend after having cheated on a second wife after me and he is so wrapped up in lust and upholding his false image that I wonder what will happen... it is so sad and he brought so much harm and pain to many of us... he also now has a daughter...and yet continues to do this base thing.

But confess all of your sins the most ugliest, nastiest, vile, dirty things you have been hiding. And then turn away from them hating it so much you never want to do it again. EVERYTIME I think about the past (because the enemy will then try to taunt you) I immediately yell I'm Free from shame and guilt. He wants relationship not religion also

As Christians we need to show so much love to others that they will never fear to be judged by us. We are all struggling with different types of sins and none is worse than the other. The more we love others the more we help them in their quest for freedom from sin and the more we help ourselves in our own quest for freedom. I thank God for all these testimonies.

    I am going through a similar situation. I appreciate that Jose mentioned that people can be offended at God because of how they need to fight and contend against the sin and themselves.
    I believe that if I were truly to pursue after God the way and degree that I need to, I could not be tempted with lust as I would not desire the sin.
    I have continuously found that multiple things in my life require me to fight to a degree of commitment and determination that I often don’t have. I put forth a certain amount of effort but I don’t go the full way of exhibiting every amount of effort necessary to get the intended result.
    I feel like I’d need some sort of trail or suffering in my life to cause me to behave and obey with as much consistency and commitment as needed. But, the losses I am presently experiencing (or am near experiencing) are purely because of my own doing.
    The only hope I can see is that God intends by some means to give me what I need such that my will would be oriented to choose not to sin or that I would rely on others to keep me away from being able to carry out the choice to sin.
    I haven’t struggled with escorts in particular for years as Jose did and I was transparent with multiple people about my actions around the time they began.
    I appreciate Jose sharing his testimony.
    I would hope to have one as well.

    POWERFUL STORY, Jose! So brave of you to be as vulnerable as you were. As someone who's struggled with sexual sin myself I greatly appreciated what you shared about how God took you on your healing journey and what he taught you that helped you not only get free but stay free. I can relate in a lot of ways. Grateful for your life!

    I got involved with prostitutes after 9 years of regularly watching Porn. even though my first time wasn't with an escort/prostitute... I still got insanely addicted to this wicked pastime. I ended up sleeping with over += 70 women. ive just recently visited one a day ago. This addiction is REAL and truly evil.

      Fight it brother....
      Go to the gym and get into a hobby that's good for you. Eventually within time you'll see that the addiction becomes less and less when you fight against it.

    Thank you for sharing your powerful testimony. I admire your bravery. Like you said when it all comes down to it we all have a choice. Walking away from addiction is extremely difficult but it is an active choice that you have to make over and over again. And that you chose to let others in when it was the last thing you wanted to do.
    Through your story I can see God's grace. The way God gave you your wife as a motivation to walk away from your sin. And the fact that it was certainly God's timing and not yours! The thing that sticks with me is your question what kind of man do you want to be? The scripture is coming to my mind do EVERYTHING unto the Lord. Because he sees it all. Thank you brother. May God continue to bless you and your family.

    A blessing to see his testimony. Seems to be a big problem with males expecting to lose their virginity before marriage. That it makes them men. As a female, I had the pressure. I never felt good when I lost my virginity. Being raised in church by my parents, was my guilt. More shame realize God sees everything we do. Such a brave testimony he has. Thank God for this site. Glad to see so many accepting Jesus as Lord and Savior. I am saved!! Learned God is my first love in my adult life. Blessed God is so patient with us. 🙏🏾

    Struggled with binge eating disorder. Was so broken and unhappy. God told me clearly to confess to others. Also did not want to and eventually did, which changed my life and helped me to really deal with it. Now mom of 3 and absolutely no remnance of disorder left in my life. God completely restored my life in this regard

    powerful, powerful testimony to the realities of dealing with our sin... and the great importance of TELLING A TRUSTED PERSON, especially your pastor or a Christian friend! Thank you so much for your courageous vulnerability... without that level of HONESTY and VULNERABILITY your testimony wouldn't have the same power to TRULY HELP OTHERS and LEAD THEM TO JESUS for STRENGTH THROUGH THE DAY-TO-DAY BATTLE... the battle, that, as our FAITH GROWS IN CHRIST, becomes a bit (if not SIGNIFICANTLY) easier!!! God bless you and this channel!!!

    One of the most impactful testimonies ever! Many people don't understand that free will comes with an obligation on our part to make right choices. Freedom comes from laying down our lives and trusting God to purge us of all unrighteousness. Freedom also comes from being willing to be vulnerable to the church community and despising the shame that comes from being transparent.

    Wow, I love that he was willing to be vulnerable and be accountable to someone through his process. It’s easy to hide your fault and shame and go into the secret place and ask for forgiveness and freedom. But when you’re willing to come out of hiding to see change…that’s a deeper level of humility that doesn’t go unnoticed by God. He’ll never turn from a humbled heart. He’ll never wince at any amount of shame. His love covers, heals, and restores. (1 Peter 4:8, Psalms 103:2-4)
