Overcoming Addictions with God

  • Overcoming addictions can be one of the most challenging journeys you'll face as a servant of God. The enemy will do everything to taint the message of the God in the scriptures to make you think you're hopeless. God has something different to say about it.
    God is your partner in your battles. He knows what you struggle with and He understands the depth. Once we get out of the attitude of shame and we shift our mindset to the truth, freedom is already given we just have to receive it.
    I pray my vulnerability and my perspective encourages you. I am building this channel to welcome a community of like minded individuals looking to live their lives for Christ. It's hard out there, but you are not alone.
    Blessings!

      exactly!! I’m 15 and I’ve been in addictions as well and the biggest thing to remember is that Christ loves you and that he convicted you of that sin out of love and joy!! The very reason as to why you got convicted is a reason that God was better for you in this life and when it comes to your relationship in general!! Proverbs 24:16!! ❤️❤️

    • @EggoBear
      @EggoBear Před 21 dnem +4

      Hi hi!! I’m 15 and a young Christian and honestly I think I understand what you’re going through! Something that I often struggle with is being content with the things I have and just focusing my eyes in Christ instead of earthly Possessions!! It gets really hard but the more time you spend in the word and the closer you get to God you realize he’s not a hand that want to harm you but a hand that wants to help and guide you in the right direction!! Good is never cold or distant from you and if you were ever stuck, hurt, or even curious about something God will never withhold information from you!! I hope the Lord guided in the right direction and keeps you on his path of righteousness and love ☺️💕💕

    @MLG_ZAP Před 18 dny +4

    I am 19 years old and started using drugs at a young age. I chose to walk really close to Jesus a couple months ago and was able to drop all of those addiction through the help of Christ cold turkey never thinking I could. It is difficult because all my friends abuse them and had to let them go to work on me and my walk with Jesus. I need to be whole again it was covering up so much I pray for the renewal of my mind.

      @makiahcudmore2002 Před 17 dny +2

      I am so proud of you, bro! It can be a lonely walk at first but it’s oh so worth it! Jesus wants to immensely to help us become better versions of ourselves, we must simply continue to put Him at the forefront of our minds and hearts. I will be praying for you ❤

    Agree with all this brother said. The most basic passage I remember now is James. Don’t be someone who looks at yourself in the mirror and then walks away and forgets how you look. Instead remember, most of this desires are in you not all come from the world or demons. It’s your battle too. Don’t get deceived

    I’m dealing with lust overdoing video games felling like I’m not going nowhere in life like Im just waking up everyday I’ve been addicted to Phub since I was like 12 it’s weird how I hate it but love it cuz it fells good. But that post clarity hits hard and that’s what’s annoys me sometimes I wish I did have sexual hormones man but when I see a female who is built nice it’s like my mind goes full lust and honestly I truly hate it it makes me fell weak and lost like I wish I can go back to being a kid and curious about sex but grow up to not know what it is. You ever had that thought like what if I grew up never knowing what pornography is like ever and when I go back to praying I fell like I’m just repeating a cycle like a robot but I’m going to resolve why I do these things and what triggers my lustful ways.
