[@Bb-fq6yk]

I overcame lust by letting it in God's Hands. I tried for 5 years to fight it by myself, but everytime i fell. I would do a 3 months break without it, but then fell back. I tried so hard that i started to loose myself, not wanting to be in social environnements anymore, because of the guilt. I was miserable. Another thing, i tought that God would love me more if i stopped doing it. I measured God's grace and love by how MY strengths would get me to stop. That's why i would hate myself, because i was weak, and i didn't like that about myself. That's why it makes me laugh when the world says that it is liberating to explore their sexuality, when in reality, it is being in bondage and a slave to it, without knowing it. If you ask them to stop, it would be a whole different conversation. When I 1. started to ask God for his strenghts 2. stopped condemning myself from felling back to it 3.started giving myself grace 4. started coming back to God instead of going away from him because of guilt 5. started getting away from social media 6. stopped listening to worldy music that would put me in a lustful mood 7. Stopped watching certain movies 8. honnestly started crying out to God for help, telling him that i couldn't by myself, feeding myself with his world,... I started to see changes. It's been 1 year that i stopped masturbating. It breaks my heart even thiking that Satan had that much power over me. I am not sensitive to the factors that were influencing me to masturbate because I limit my thoughts to certain things, i talk to God about my weaknesses, i dont lean on my own understanding and i trust his judgement. It is so liberating, now i'm fighting other things, i know Jesus is working in me and i trust him.

Lust will really have you thinking certain things that’ll make you say “what is actually wrong with me?”; impure thoughts that you never thought would cross your mind. It’ll change and you won’t even notice. At least I didn’t notice. Hence the phrase ‘silent killer’. I really needed this. Thank you Jesus. Thanks for the vid Phil.

[@finnovationwithsesi]

I’m about to be 23yo and waiting for marriage. I can confirm lust is one of the biggest battles in singleness; especially once you’ve explicitly stated that you are committed to waiting for marriage. It’s like temptation comes at you full force. And unless you live a fasted lifestyle you will not win in your own strength. And don’t date anyone who isn’t willing and able to abstain or be celibate for themselves too because they will be your greatest temptation on two legs 🚩😭😂 it’s the most foolish thing to wish they’ll tame their flesh for you. I wish more men and women of God weren’t ashamed to have this conversation.

[@tabithathewholistic]

I understand you 100%. Im 30 years old, and the wait gets more challenging by the day, but remembering the alternative of breaking that covenant to God brings me back to reality.

[@ProFoundXIII]

I’ve been battling lust since I was 13 I’m 22 now. I knew I was struggling when I made provision to do it and even lied to protect it and it felt like I had more loyalty for my porn addiction than God. I’m having trouble in my pursuit of God right now because I grew comfortable with my “worldly” life and it’s difficult breaking the bond but I want to. Hope all that reads this know that God loves you and the guilt that you feel when doing wrong is just a sign that you want to do right, talk it out with God. I hope you stay strong the journey isn’t for the weak❤️

[@TRILLTRUTH]

19:28 - “lust ain’t nothing to play with y’all it’s real deal A SPIRITUAL BATTLE” ..that said please take what it is I’m saying seriously, bc it’s essential in understanding the larger lens: Lust is a demon, the feeling / action of lust is a byproduct of how a demon is operating in the soul of a person. It needs to be cast out. People have to ask the Lord to deliver them from every unclean spirit in a posture of desperation to be set free and set on fire for Jesus - filled with the Holy Spirit afresh asking Jesus to renew our mind and truly being hungry for the word etc to seek his face and presence. WORSHIP / PRAISE is truly a way to be delivered all while building your bond with the Lord. Reverence in his presence, crying out to be set free from DEMONIC OPPRESSION.. truly repenting and making sure there’s no unforgiveness in your heart. Coming humble in every way! You’re right with the fasting for sure it does help especially if you’re intentional about wanting to be set free and you have a literal revelation about what it is that’s keeping you bound. Christians can have demons. We shouldn’t, but unfortunately it’s a literal fact that we can. Demons are absolutely able to dwell in our souls due to legal right through willful/continual sin and sometimes generational where we have things that came in through the bloodline that has to be renounced (break generational curses) - We gotta be real with ourselves in knowing that we’re not called to cope with demons.. we’re called to have authority through the blood of Jesus. Demons keep us in patterns and cycles, that’s how the enemy works. Satan wants people to remain ignorant of his devices and hates when people find out how to BIND THE STRONG MAN over their lives and get the whole demonic operation out. Men and women can carry the jezebel spirit and a lot of the times people are dealing with an unclean spirit that refuses people to believe they might potentially have a demon in the first place, which is that wicked religious spirit - no lie this is a legit demon that constantly keeps people in bondage to being free for real. People are dealing with pride - leviathan.. smh it’s heavy on the “do as thou wilt” (anti Christ principle) through one’s actions which is a deeper root to rebellion. Also there’s a literal python spirit that keeps people bound to making progress in Christ. It squeezes the life out of a person’s energy, keeping them stagnant in a lot of ways. I could go on and on tbh it’s really wild and often a deeper rooted issue. Just wanted to be of help on this bc it’s truly a part of what the Lord is using me to do.. I wanna see people be SET FREE FOR REAL !!! AND ON FIRE FOR JESUS WITH FULL AUTHORITY 🔥 ..if you ever need more insight into anything I briefly spoke about etc just hit me bro - there’re some real soldiers out here who got they foot on the devils neck who can impart TRUTH (JESUS, THE WORD) into anyone who is willing to go higher. The true remnant is rising up to igniting Holy Spirit FIRE in the body of Christ and be a true mouthpiece to those willing to listen. A few scriptures that’re helpful: Ephesians 6:11-17 2 corinthians 2:11 Luke 11:20 Mark 3:15 Psalms 19:7 Psalms 71:23 Psalms 120:2 John 4:23-24 Isaiah 61:1-3 All love 💛✨

[@paulamoreno6505]

There’s so much to unpack here… first of all I’m ecstatic that men are bringing this type of content to KZbin and having these conversations which are seen as a taboo and/or vulnerable, its so important as it breaks down so many built up walls and provides a new hope for those whom are struggling and/or have younger cousins/ siblings and etc who are struggling with lust. Because the reality of it is, to every fruit of lust there is a root related to a lack of belief in something concerning God. Setting boundaries for ourselves is so important, I feel like we put so much confidence in our flesh that by the time we notice that something isn’t right we are already in the thick of it, hence why I loved that you touched on community. If there is something I’ve learnt is that it truly is not good for man to be alone, and thinking otherwise is a result of pride, having that community helps you to overcome your struggles. It is so important because the right and healthy community will offer a safe environment for you to be transparent, correction with love, truth and grace and will help identify blindspots whilst interceding for you. Genuinely can’t wait for part 2, it is nice to finally hear a man be vulnerable on what struggling with lust truly looks like because no one is above stumbling. I pray a covering over your mind and heart and the strength and power to flee temptation. In Jesus’ Holy Name, Amen😊

[@moeshaclay]

I love that you’re talking on this because whewww! Lust is one of the most challenging spirits to be delivered from. But anytime you’re having dreams about having s3x with a demon, immediately get up and rebuke the dream and fast. The dreams tell us the covenant demons have made or is making with us to keep us bound. We have to wake up and challenge it by prayer and fasting

[@serendipitouscomet]

Letting go of lust is extremely difficult in this age, where it’s so prevalent in media and genuine relationships are scarce. The past month, I think I’ve finally been able to free myself. Every day is still a challenge because of how used to my brain got to the free release of endorphins. But I think I can say with confidence that I’m moving forward and leaving it in the past. Even if God doesn’t present my future wife to me in the next 20 years. Depression/sloth is probably the next big demon in my life left for me to conquer.

Love to see a man of God speaking on dream interpretations (those dreams were VERY spiritual coded, you’re a warrior!) & genuinely addressing the propensity for lust in today’s men. Yes, it was thrusted upon us but as adults, we have to take responsibility for caving to the temptation! It’s not to demonize sex; but lust takes away from, causes addiction, spiritually depletes. Love (real sex) adds onto, blossoms, feeds, nourishes, replenishes the soul. We have to rebuke obsession with the flesh & utilize that energy on our remembrance/embrace of God (+ our true Self). So glad u made it through your battles! Sending you strength as you walk into this next chapter. May the wiles of the wicked and temptations of Jezebel be cast upon the eternal flame.

This video helped me so much even as a woman. You are very anointed and I’m very proud of you! im currently preparing myself and my life for my future and my future husband and working on getting even closer to God than I’ve ever been, and lust has been a struggle, I too have went long streaks then suddenly succumbed to lustful thoughts. another practical tip that worked for me is going to sleep, lol there’s times I had to just take a nap because But most important the word, calling on God and reciting his word and remembering his precepts, thinking of how terrible ur gonna feel after, Also I noticed that after having s*x with certain men outside of marriage I noticed the spirits that was oppressing them, I noticed started to try to cling to me, and was affecting me spiritually.(we thank God for deliverance though) S*x is so sacred and God said for very good & factual reasons that it should only be between husband and wife. He isn’t tryna stop our fun or be overbearing, it’s just s*x is not a casual a activity, would you trust and allow just anyone to do a surgery on you? no so why would you trust and allow anyone to have access to your naked and vulnerable body. Thank you again 🙏🏾

[@mama-ariii]

Thankyou for sharing, I appreciate it. I myself have overcame an addiction. I never chose things such as drugs a partner was that for me.. I thought it was a safer choice but really it was probably just as bad. Nothing can heal your heart after loss and trauma etc and nothing can fix a void if you're not okay. You have to step back way back and dig to the roots. 11years of men, 11 years of sex and heartaches and tears and confusion, and loving and losing over and over, many soul ties finally free thanks to God I never imagined I wouldn't be controlled by such thoughts and needs and emotions and urges, I'm finally okay with being myself and saving myself for myself and for my future whomever that may be. Much respect. It's crazy because too much of the hard stuff in life made me run to or accept the people/poor choices, but this time the hard stuff made me wake up and be a better person as I thrive to be. It's easy to give in, self control is beautiful makes it mean more- more worth it. Peace and 💓 Focusing on exercising and fasting and making time for myself and my needs my physical and mental, emotional and spiritual every category has connected itself to reflect my soul more and make me a better being. I'm learning everyday and grateful even when it hurts because the bad stuff shows you when something is good .. proud of you.

Love this❤and yes Semen retention is real, 8 years ago is when I 1st tried SR out. The benefits especially after my 90 day reset is life changing for sure. Lust definitely creeps up once in a while and the longer the streak gets in the beginning it gets intense. The longer your on SR the easier it gets it is just a lifestyle after going so long without releasing that sexual energy. Also had to learn how to transmute that sexual energy into your goals and to eat cleaner. If you stay stagnant you become irritable and angry at some points. Best of luck to you and anyone else dealing with overcoming lust. God bless to all you kings and queens.

Lust is very real. Not just for men but for women too. God has a funny sense of humor, this video popped up on my feed after falling into sin earlier today. I’ve battled lust for over 16 years since I was a teenager. I was not only exposed to sex early with pornography, I was also molested. To make it worst, I have a really high drive. Mentally, I grew up being told how beautiful and sexy I looked and being taught about my body and sex. I’ve had some good moments where I go months and then I fall and it takes a while to get back. I’ve eliminated most things out of my life, I don’t drink, club, I’m single, but that still has not stopped the urge. In fact, I’m more aware of it now than before. I think sexual sin and lust is one of the most damaging issues you can have, second only to drug addiction. I often tell God, I wish He had given me a different struggle. It’s really hard dealing with something in your own body. I know one day God will have the last say, until then I pray for strength and everyone dealing with lust.

[@porciasview]

You better preach!! One thing I have to keep reminding myself is that lust is a sin against myself. Nothing feels worse than following lust and feeling that distance between myself and God.

May God help us all. Thank you for sharing!!!

I’m glad you talking about this because most don’t talk about this. This is not only a problem with men but also very hard for women. I been exposed to sex at 5 years old and I’m 33 now so I been struggling with this for so long. I have been getting closer to God for several years now and still struggle with lust. People come to me for advice about having a relationship with God because I’m so close to Him but I still struggle with lust. I go long streaks without it too but then I slip up out of no where and feel bad about it. I have a boyfriend and we slipped up one time in 2 years because of me. Thank you for reminding me of fasting because I need to get rid of this desire in God’s strength. Thank you for the advice. The closer I get to God the better I become. I know I will overcome this with God’s help I just have to do my part with reading the word, fasting, and staying away from worldly things. Thank you so much for this video.

Man this truly resonates with me. I feel like we can all relate. I’ve been practicing abstinence for a few years now & let me tell you it’s hard. Thank you for this. 🙏🏾 ❤

[@Garnett.]

Been battling with lust since 7th grade i'm 22 now. I pray we all break free one day.

[@PeaceBeStill24]

Fasting and prayer, brother! It’s possible when you really want it. Been there

[@fonzieskatesurf]

Me too since 11, I'm 47 today 1/14/77 and still struggling with lust and porn

[@LiveWellNowTV]

I love your transparency. Especially as a man. Keep sharing your story and keep encouraging people to face and combat lust. Sin is something we all need to deal with. You convicted me too. Thank you 🙏🏾

[@santanabandanna5729]

I was exposed to lust at a very young age & I still deal with it even in my walk with God 🥺😢😭😔 but greater is he that is in me then he that is in the world ❤️🙏🏼 stay in the word & stay in prayer ask God to break those chains 🙏🏼 Thank you Heavenly Father for brother Phil 🙌🏼 God Bless you brother 🙏🏼

[@santanabandanna5729]

@@STARSENMT Thank you I appreciate it 🥺🙏🏼

[@ninashaw23]

Phil I hope you know you are a leader. A speaker. A big voice in the world. I know you feel it. Cuz you touch all of us w every video you post. One of those that typically don’t comment but I really fw you heavy. Such a great mindset for a grown man.

[@Kiya8888]

Listen here… it takes a certain kind of man to be this vulnerable and transparent. I love you Phil ❤️

[@tippieyanez8289]

The struggle is so real. Even for women. I have fasted and renounced. Neither worked. But what i see helps me more is realizing that i am really just craving a deep connection with my own self. So now, even tho attractive men tempt me regularly. My soul cant give in. Because i am connecting with my soul more instead of allowing my body to rule me. I can hear my soul say no whenever someone tries to tempt me to dishonor myself for the sake of pleasure. I am still learning and evolving. I just feel like the harder we are on ourselves, the more prone we are to giving in and going backwards. Being gentle definitely helps.. thank you for posting a very honest video. Its something all of us grapple with and its okay.

[@HoneyBunRoad]

This the one. Being gentle is the really the only way, you can't shame yourself into changing & as soon as I realised that I was able to change is so many ways. I was always craving close relationships & looked for them in all the wrong places.i had to start with knowing ME 😅

[@allthingscapitol7107]

I’m so so so glad you listened to God when this was placed on your heart. I’ve been battling Lust for so long. I just started consistently getting back into my word and even today the day of this comment I fell and just kind of sat alone like why. I don’t want to go through this anymore and as I came on to watch some tutorials I saw the video. I hesitated and scrolled past before doubling back to click it. I’m so glad I did. I feel such heavy shame even thinking about speaking to someone about it and it’s wild that the internet feels safer than the company I keep. Realizing what I just wrote. Thank you for this and even a starting point by fasting and continuing to sit with God. Going to get myself in the right company and ask God for more obedient God fearing men to walk with. God bless man. God bless.

[@OfficialDwill]

Im glad I found your account phil , your videos help my life !

[@AaliyahR21]

I'd just like to say thank you for sharing! As a woman this was such a beautiful thing to witness, hear and even understand from the perspective of a man and what men go through! As women we get caught up too but I've always known things especially in this area are wayyy harder for men and this has answered a lot of questions and opened my eyes more to how deep it can really be. So thank you for sharing & I will continue to keep the men specifically in my prayers 🙏🏾

[@AMtothepm29]

Thanks!

[@emraldelizabeth]

Lust really is a big thing a lot of us battle with. Video was very informative and I like how you had the courage to tell your stories. Thank you and god bless you this really helps

[@kriziadeabreu]

wow. thank you so much for this video. I took a personal vow of celibacy 3 years ago with such conviction and I was on this journey that left me feeling so spiritually fufilled and connected. Two months ago I moved to another state to pursue higher education and to start building a career and suddenly have had a major hit of lonliness. The more people I'd interact with, the more lonely I'd feel. I crave a deeper connection. I've been battling intrusive thoughts because the last time I've felt any connection to other humans that goes beyond surface level has been lustfully.

[@mossdiggity9892]

I needed this so much. I just found your channel today and am going through it. The timing couldn't be more perfect. Praise the LORD

[@ArielManigault]

This is so real. I appreciate your platform. Tears are flowing.

[@yoyog247]

I pray I can find a man with the values you hold one day 🙏🏽. You’re such an inspiration.

[@ShineYourLightAlwaysFTK]

You are spitting facts bro!!!! Thanks for obeying the Holy Spirit in speaking on this topic! Like you said lust is a silent killer! I liked what you said about overcoming in Gods strength not our own! That’s what helped me and helps me overcome, being vulnerable with God and denouncing the spirit of lust & vanity. The last time I was tempted, I kept asking the Lord for help. Kept reciting scripture, I talked to myself about how this small moment of gratification is not worth how I am going to feel afterwards. In that moment I realized that the enemy wanted to keep me bound. Once God opened my eyes to that, I held on to God - I said enemy you are not about to keep me from living righteous- through Jesus! God will help us overcome, I pray that our eyes can be open to know that we do not fight against flesh and blood! God has so much more in store for us, if we are willing to let Him prepare our character and develop us into who He created us to be 🙏🏽🤍

[@bryeshaJF830]

I absolutely luv this message and your transparency. I agree with you, staying away for people/places and things that you know the flesh can be weak. I'm looking forward to part 2 🫶🏾

[@michaeleady6271]

My brother thanks for your vulnerability and your transparency. I too have struggled with lust since I was younger , I was molested as a young little boy by an older woman and it made my childhood much more advanced. God giving me the knowledge of semen retention at just 20 years old was a true blessing it saved my life !! It made me look at life completely different everything changes and becomes much more delicate and beautiful. Now I’m 24 and I’ve had so much ups and downs on my journey and I still battle with the spirit of lust ,But it has changed me into a better man in so much many ways. I has changed me so much that I don’t even recognize the person I was before I started my journey .I pray that God gives us the strength and resilience to say NO to the enemy when he tries to creep in our mind with thoughts that are not ours. It is an ongoing battle and everyday feels like a war between you and yourself. Much love Brodie I know one day we gone be free from that ugly spirit, somewhere with our wives enjoying the life god has destined for us 🙏🏾💯💯🤜🏾🤛🏾

[@KorahG]

Thank you for being so open about things that should be talked about but nobody does because I’m currently on my path of celibacy, it’s definitely not easy and needed to hear this

[@hapshabyahyisrael9810]

When truth hits you. We all struggle with lust. The world is saturated with it. It destroys people. At 64 I have learned the power of prayer, fasting and meditating is very powerful. I am so thankful to hear you spoke on this. Continue sharing. We need this. Older men are at an all time high. Divorcing their wives for no reason just to go for younger women on the street. Destroying their families. I pray that we may all seek a deeper understanding of spiritual warfare. The soul ties are deadly.

[@SharrOnMars]

This couldn’t have come at a more perfect time, I hope your still doing the podcast!

[@Babydoll_bre]

I just woke up one day and wanted better ❤ it's never to later for a fresh start or to save your self for the right person

[@Jayskko]

I feel you 100 % on this fam specially when I’m on streaks of doing the right thing

[@njaikenon]

Thank you Phil. I have experienced this in my dreams. The enemy is using dreams, suggestions and subtle tricks to influence and arouse. Part of the goal is to use dreams, fear, abuse, guilt, cycle of unworthiness, shame, flaws, vulnerabilities and influence behavior. They want you to stay at a lower frequency. You have to keep going. Walk in your purpose. Seek life, hug others, live, laugh, encourage others, stand on the word of God, do not dwell on the past and do not isolate yourself.

[@KimberlyRisingTV]

This blessed me. Grateful for your obedience. Grateful for God’s grace. 🙏🏾🙌🏾

[@toriharris8762]

I'm so glad I'm not alone in this man lust is something I struggle with the most outta everything.

[@anointed1154]

The growth in you is amazing!! I pray that God strengthens you and everyone here every day.

[@brandoncoke2310]

Bro I felt this bro especially when I be on a streak and all of a sudden I fall back into sin . Then feel to ashamed to repent . I needed this the world needs this thank you Phil 🙏🏾

[@yuppitsb4725]

I was up at 3am this morning fighting this battle. Went back to sleep got up at 6:30am and saw this video definitely needed to see this

[@_TheLifeofLu]

Thank you Phil. I literally broke down because of the dream that I had on Saturday where I had to pray for God to show up for me and help me fight that demon up off me. It shook me to my core, but the devil lost AGAIN! This was right on time & thank you for being a transparent vessel.

[@DiaryofAnImperfectChristian]

Phil!! I know this was mainly for the guys but this was on time! Thank you so much for this and just for your vulnerability as well. "not in my strength but in His" a word!

[@talovebugged95]

I’ve been on my celibacy journey for a while and I had a moment of weakness this morning and was so ashamed of myself…like God why is this my struggle. I prayed about it and went about my devotions. I felt God press on me to fast and placed it on my heart to pray for accountability. I know it’s not a coincidence that this video came across my suggestions today. The Holy Spirit gives us a word and then will confirm it. Thank you for your obedience in posting this video. I needed this…I know I’m not alone in this struggle but sometimes it’s nice to be reminded.

[@jadiedanyelle]

The vulnerability it takes to come on here and be honest about what most women and men struggle with and are to embarrassed to speak on is commendable, I pray God continues to give you the strength and transparency to do his work! Relatability can go along way. I definitely struggle, and have struggle with this topic since I was a young girl, and felt so “nasty” for having normal thoughts because we were created sexual beings but through the sanctity of marriage. I think that it should be taught in church, for young adults and even singles that hormones are normal being horny is normal and teaching the ways to help deny your flesh through Christ until marriage can be attained like you said through his strength not our own. I definitely feel like once I surrendered to Christ, the temptation got sooo much harder, and every time I would slip up the way that I felt was so condemning to myself, even if it was not the actual act of sex and just thoughts… I could go on and on but I send this video right on time. Thankyou

[@319.hisglory]

Brother, thank you so much for sharing this. Being able to understand it from a male perspective helps me have so much compassion that as females we deal with the same. So grateful for the work the Lord is doing in you. This video was a blessing !!!

[@KennedyWord]

One time for the cinematic beginning. Love the concept

[@JohnohGlory]

I had a horrible 10 year p*rn addiction. I needed deliverance and ever since receiving it I can truly say I feel free.

[@hunnikissable]

I wanna say thank you for being vulnerable and sharing this bro!! I’ve been battling it since I was a 7 year old girl and it’s a journey man!! You’ve really helped me, I’m praying for you❤️.

[@wavreaction]

Same problems bro. Glad you sharing because the devil will make you feel like the problems you’re going through are exclusive to you and no one else. God is good! God is strength! God is love!
