  • What's destructive, expensive, and detrimental to your soul? Porn. If we had eyes to see how many demons are behind pornography, we would run from it. If we knew how much the devil delights in it, it would not be appealing to us.
    By the grace of God, Preston has been freed from pornography for three years, and he shares his experience in this episode. God is a loving God. If you run to Him for help, He’ll sustain you.

    When I struggled with porn I prayed and asked God to help me love Him more than sin. Next I stayed in His Word and in prayer. God’s Word will change your heart to want holy things verses unholy things.

      Joseph Prince says he advises people to SPEAK🗣🗣🗣, even as they are watching it, and to SAY “I am the righteousness of GOD in Christ Jesus.” (2 Corinthians 5:21) He has thousands of testimonies of people delivered from lifelong addictions to it after speaking.
      Just by DECLARING the TRUTH of The WORD and reminding the foul and unclean spirit ... and themselves .. of who they REALLY are causes that wicked spirit to lessen and lose its grip of power and the inner man to be renewed and built up against the flesh and the devil.

    Love this. God delivered me from porn. I watched porn religiously, which lead to masturbation. I was first introduced to it as a child. I can recall hearing my family members watching it when they thought I was sleep. I lifted my head up and turned towards the tv and heard turn around. It was crazy. The sounds ugh. It reminds me of how the serpent tempted Eve in the garden. I was addicted for years and masturbation and it took a lot of praying, reading the Bible and fasting and eventually I lost interest. The thought of it disgust me. I can recall the times I would cry lord please forgive me, please help me. I’m sorry…..Thanks be to Jesus for deliverance 🙌🏽

    I was free for about 2 months and thought it was gone. I fell again.. I was so upset. God revealed I was relying on my own strength and not the strength of the lord. We can only hold off for so long on our own but through the strength of God pornography/perversion is already defeated and as inheritance through our father we will overcome.

      They key is spending time in His presence often. Thats where our spiritual strength comes from. Also, keeping your eyes clean intentionally. Browsing social media , walking down the street. The more lust you entertain, the weaker you will become. Then, when you're alone minding your own business, the enemy will creep in with those wispers, and you will be too weak to resist. There is freedom. Love you all in the grace of our Lord Jesus Christ.

    Us women struggle with pornography too. I struggled with it for so long until the Holy Spirit showed me what it was doing to myself, my family, and my marriage. I even FOOLISHLY told my husband that it was okay for him to watch it because I thought that it was helping my marriage and our husband and wife time. The last time I searched for pornography was January of 2020. I felt so gross and convicted about it that I repented and let it go immediately. I pray for our eyes to be shielded from the devil’s tactics. I pray that we forgive ourselves and that we are on high alert so that we will never fall into that mess again. In Jesus mighty name!

    I was tossing and turning as I slept tonight and I woke up in the middle of the night after praying to God to forgive me of my sexual sin and battle with pornography. I had the Perry’s faces show up on my mind for some reason, and as I reached for my phone looking for someone to speak life and encouragement into me as I was feeling extremely shameful for the struggle with lust that I have been dealing with especially when I claim to be a believer in Jesus Christ. Feeling guilty for betraying God with my choice to sin I go on to CZcams and this video pops up claiming that it dropped 3 hours ago. I have not watched it yet but I feel that this was God directing me towards this video because I’m sure it will encourage and bless me. God bless all who read this. I’m not usually one to comment but I thought that it was way too coincidental. And I don’t really believe in coincidences. God is good. Amen 😌

      @noble604 Před 2 měsíci +1

      Amen. Like Preston said, the enemy isn’t just playing for his soul but that enemy is trying to get the souls of their children, too. When Jackie talked about making sure the door is closed so the kids have no access to the conversation, that was prophetic. What happens with pporn is a door has been made wide open in the spirit realm. Demons and demonic activity have been granted legal permission and access to the spiritual atmosphere of that house to come on in. We can’t see it in the spirit but we can feel the result.
      When we engage in it, we let satan’s agents set up camp in our space and this doesn’t only affect the one participating in it but everyone in the atmosphere is living in that atmosphere. There is no “separate room” for sín. The whole house is now open.
      This makes it that much easier for the demonic to attach themselves to the children, just by proximity, to seduce them and to bring them closer into it, as well.
      We have to renounce and rid our homes of things evil, unclean and demonic and keep our personal spirit and spiritual atmosphere around us free and holy as a place to welcome in The Holy Spirit and the angels of The LORD so they can come in and encamp around us who fear Him as we walk holy and blameless in His ways.
      We must be aware of how the enemy operates, the unseen realm and the end game. AMEN🔥🔥 We CAN prevail through JESUS. To GOD be the glory. AMEN

I came to the Lord a couple years ago and finally laid my life down about 18 months ago, and man... I go a month or two and I fall, and then I go through a few short cycles of falling and getting up, then I'm good for a month or two and the cycle repeats over and over.
    I was convinced I was free until last night I gave in again, and Lord knows how helpful this video is. It's a sensitive topic, but it needs to be talked about. Praise God for yalls openness. Thank you. 🙏❤️‍🔥

    I struggled with Pornography as a kid. I was introduced to sexual things at a young age. God has freed me from that when I got married, but the temptation never went away and I would be lying if I said it never happened again. The temptation always came on when I was board or looking for a serotonin hit and satisfaction but it never fully satisfies because of the shame. I also feel like gluttony is up there with sexual immorality because it’s like you’re sinning against your own body. But gluttony most times you can see the sin on the outside. I appreciate this conversation and I pray that Yahusha sets free his people and has mercy on all of us in the struggle🙏 We have to fight against our flesh and our own minds.

I remember beating my sheets because I was so frustrated because I had to chose what was good over what felt good. It's not peaceful, it's work, it's denying yourself.

    I really enjoyed this discussion and your transparency Preston. I struggled for years with masturbation. It was a very difficult stronghold to overcome. God helped me and set me free from it for years. Then I fell back into it during the pandemic and felt terrible afterwards. I asked Holy Spirit to give me a word to hold on to and He said when I masturbate I am partnering with demons. I tell you, that reality was enough to destroy the desire and haven't looked back since. All this to say, I make a choice daily to crucify my flesh and trust God.

    When I first started to confront it, I told my family and close friends. I confessed it to God and he started to cleanse me. I was just done, I absolutely hated it. Every night got worse, when I didn’t fall to it I had awful dreams about doing stuff with women and I’d wake up crying. Like I couldn’t escape it no matter where I went. One night in a dream I was being seduced and the girl was just asking over and over for me to lay with her. I refused over and over, and her face became contorted and furious. I realized it was a demon literally trying to seduce me. I woke up after just aware sometimes I was under attack and had won a battle. I still struggle with it sometimes, it’s one of those sins where I grew up using it to cope without realizing it. But God has shown faithful in every situation and every time I ask forgiveness he gives it to me and it’s like a weight is lifted off me. It’s definitely a process but if you’re in a similar situation run to God as fast as you can.

      Absolutely. And know you’re not alone. The average age of exposure now is about 11-12 😞with kids first exposed as early as 8 with these phones and devices everywhere.😩
      That’s the enemy’s tactic... to expose people younger and younger/ earlier and earlier in their lives to all kinds of wicked and demonic traps in order to create lifelong strongholds that can be very hard to break and to be derailed in order to make a trainwreck out of life long before even starting. Once you know who’s behind the battle, you know how to fight that enemy. Use your spiritual weapons. Praying for you.

    This is such a testament to the timing of God. As I type this comment, my older brother is right now ready to throw away 3 kids and marriage because his mind has been warped by pornography. I struggle with it and continue to journey and pursue resting in the forgiveness and presences of God. Please pray for my big brother Antonio… it looks dark rn but I know God is a good God who can bring peace to the roughest storms. Thank you to the Perry’s and all of you, God bless!!!

    @applefeliciaonly Před 2 měsíci +22

    One thing I think that could also be added is the fact that the eyes are the window to the mind and although I never struggled with this, I was exposed to this being a girlfriend to a man who frequently watched it and the images that I saw are in memory-so not only does the enemy use it actively, but even opening that one door, you forever have those images imprinted in your mind. I’m a born again believer but whenever this subject is spoken of, all of those horrible things that I saw come up again. I’m glad that at the end you also mentioned reading sensual things or even watching anything that promotes lust. This is just something that as believers we can’t fall into the trap of our flesh being exposed. Thank you Lord for your Holy Spirit that helps us to resist the enemy’s lies so that we do not compromise and keep a clear conscience.

      What I've noticed is.. for me personally. If I do indulge, all the memories come flooding back. When I keep clean, I remember hardly anything of about the pornographic content I saw. So.. in that sense. If you keep the door closed, even when temptation does come. Remembering the Love of God prevails, and He knows our lives have more value than just constant sexual gratification and degradation of human beings.

    • @CicitheRich
      @CicitheRich Před 2 měsíci +2

      The reading part is a big one too; I once heard that alot of times men will watch sexual content and women will read it. I personally have struggled with that in reading fanfiction that was sexual for example, and when any doors would open the memories would flood back in as well.

      Amen. Looking at someone in lust even just walking down the street weakens you enough that when you're alone at night, the enemy has a much easier time getting an open door. When your eyes are clean and your mind is renewed. (Which takes prayer, time, amd effort) And you are spending time in His presence. These things will have no power over you.

    @symboltherapper Před měsícem +2

    I started at 12, and it affected me 20 years. The way I got free was first I stopped making the confession that I couldn’t defeat it on my own. Through Christ he says he’s given us authority over every power of the enemy.
    So once I realized I had authority over it, and I was making a volitional act, everytime I watched. I had to choose not to do it, it’s tough but everyday you gotta have that mental battle and not give in to the weak flesh state. And prayer as well, asking God for help.
    But yeah I’d say start with that, realizing you have authority over it, appreciate this convo, God bless the Perry’s

    This was so rich. This is my testimony too. It's been more than 5 years of freedom. I documented my story too for other believers in my book. I love and honour Preston's openness of sharing how he fell back to it. That's usually the case. And like he said, when it happens be careful not to allow shame. God loves you even in your struggles. The assurance of this kept me going even the times I fell back. God does not condemn you and never gets tired of helping you. Please don't get tired of asking for His help. It's really possible to not desire it anymore. Thank you very much, Jackie and Preston. I never miss an episode. Always a blessing. ❤️

I now understand the depth of how porn has afftected my spirit, mind and soul due to this podcast. To be honest, i have been ignoring this video for a couple of days now. I'm glad that i have finally watched it. This is the first step of healing from this sickness, and i thank God for this episode.

    Beautiful. God bless you both. My husband struggles with this since a child about 45 years. I used to be offended for many years until shown the truth of it. I see his pain in which he looks to me to fix all that he is frustrated with, it is not for me to do as I am not the cause, it's Jesus in who husband does believe but can't receive the fullness of his glory. I am strengthened to continue to pray for his freedom.

Address the pain and the addiction loses it's hold. There are better ways and brighter days. God will make it happen. Praying your husband will address his pain with a Christian counselor. It works!

    @PGD_Jessy Před 2 měsíci +3

    So needed! Thank you for sharing Perry family. Part of my delivery was exactly what Preston shared. The disgust and evil hidden behind a “lesser” sin than fornication. I was introduced at 10 years old and the damage and destruction that’s a result of it is still being unraveled in my life. A few years ago I waged war against the spirit of lust and the enemy and by the grace of God the tide has shifted. It began with agreement with the word of Hod and now it’s a growing distaste to what He distaste. My advice is simply don’t treat any sin like it’s lesser than the next and never battle it yourself. The Bible says in James 4 that we must submit to God then resist the devil then he will flee. I pray my short story will help just one person in Jesus name Amen 🙏🏾

I have been free from it for over a year now and it is one of the best decisions I made; when I finally chose to love God more than my sin or pleasure, and when I gave up deeper fears to Him.

Some of those words are not typical to how we think of a man's desire but you look like a man of strength. Just in that little picture-- you look like a brother who is capable of changing the narrative. Just in your comments, i sense your ability to be a powerful agent of love and change for the kingdom. Be free King. You deserve the best. The love will return to you in ways you can't imagine.

    What an absolutely beautiful testimony and an accountable approach to a healthy mindset and marriage that we get to see play out between Preston and Jackie on this Podcast. The good news is that the Lord is so kind and able to deliver that he will find a way to present us to ourselves so that experiencing truth so intimately births a spirit of repentance within us concerning sexual sin and perversion. And when he brings us into that new mind we will know it’s him because the truth immediately cleanses us of our rationales and affections for it. Then we get to walk in that truth by meditating on it and standing on it and clinging to it in prayer.
