Quit Your "Job" | Alex Wilson

[@amenalex]

What “job” do you need to quit?

[@luketabidze8175]

What would be a spiritual job? Is that like worrying about earthly things?

I quit making Gaming KZbin videos a while ago. I let myself be defined by my sub count, not my identity in Christ. I realize that KZbin became an idol to me, and I was failing to make time for Jesus, so I changed. One of the best decisions I ever made in my life. Matthew was SUCH an epic example. He gave up his JOB, which was his entire life at this point to follow Jesus. He must have been good with words, numbers and intelligence, and he was going to use that for his own profit. But no. He created one of the most influential texts in history. I felt like God was calling me to use and know my understanding of the YT algorithm to simply spread the word of God, and attempt to bring people to Christ.

I actually did quit my job. I was going through a stage of depression. But God will provide. Never have I felt this close to God before.

[@ChildofGod98765]

Jesus save me because I’m losing hope. Please come soon I don’t know how much longer I can hang on. But I’m keeping faith. I keep faith even as I constantly struggle to take care of my children and I’m constantly struggling to buy groceries. BUT I TRUST YOU LORD! My husband died years ago. At times I feel so alone. I’m a single mom. I suffered an heart attack a year ago and I’m battling lupus so my health is failing. Both of my sons are autistic. I praise you Lord even as I constantly struggling to pay rent. Help me Jesus as I struggle to buy my children’s school supplies because I want to give up. I don’t know how I’m going to get through this, but thankfully I have you Lord! I know you will provide. Faith over fear! Praise God and his son Yeshua!

You'll definitely be in my prayers. May God bless you with abundance and peace🤍🌼

[@saravangestel9599]

Hey Tiff, I am touched by your words. I am writing from my laptop in Belgium, tiny country in Europe. I cannot imagine with all that you're going through. Please know that you are not alone, when you don't know how you're going through, is when God is carrying you. Sometimes we don't notice at the moment, but we can see it after a while. When looking back on your life, when did you feel God's helping you and your family? He provides everything for us, all we have to do is ask in faith: Mark 11:24 “Therefore I tell you, whatever you ask in prayer, believe that you have received it, and it will be yours.” You are strong, you can do this! A new door will open for you, all you have to do is keep thrusting our Lord. Sending you a big hug - Sara.

“Hope deferred makes the heart sick, But when the desire comes, it is a tree of life. He who despises the word will be destroyed, But he who fears the commandment will be rewarded.” ‭‭Proverbs‬ ‭13‬:‭12‬-‭13‬ ‭NKJV‬‬ Be of great peace, I have never seen the righteous forsaken

I’m so sorry and lifting you up. Hang in there and call your county’s food bank to supplement your food. They will give you other resources as well, such as churches that do distribution. They have definitely helped me.

[@Patrick-hp3iw]

my Job which I have to leave is the gym, my whole mood is always depending on how my Journey in the gym is going. God let me realize that my mindset is wrong, and I have to leave this job so I can follow Jesus. That doesnt mean that God is against working out, but he can only bless it if you are willing to give it up any time for him.

[@amenalex]

Man love your honesty here patrick! I love working out at home ❤

[@fumes1955]

yes man, recently I gave up how frequently i went to the gym because it was what my day revolved around and it was what i was serving. I’ve put my eyes more on Jesus and since then he has blessed me in that area of my life more. I still struggle with letting my gym schedule control my days schedule, and i definitely need to work on being able to give it up for Jesus at any moment

[@gabrielfranklin5326]

Remember what you scripture you read today people. Utilize what God teaches you in private.

Thank you for this reminder! Blessing to you and your 🙏🏾 ♥ 💪🏾

[@Megan-gl4zz]

I was repeating the scripture over and over in my head last night when I was reading. I want to have more verses memorized so that I can say them out loud or just in my head when I am struggling, as a weapon against satan. This is a great reminder for everyone (also journaling about what you read is helpful in remembering what the Holy Spirit is revealing to us when we read).

[@the_sociocultural_perspective]

Yesss great advice!❤️

[@lukester8878]

​@@Megan-gl4zzjust like Jesus when the devil tempted Him.

[@Megan-gl4zz]

@@lukester8878 YES!!! Reading that and hearing messages/sermons about the undeniable power in speaking God's Word (reading, memorizing, praying God's Word) and having experienced the power in it myself, is so incredible! I'm sure you know or have done it, but for anyone reading this who has never experienced it, next time you are afraid/worried/anxious, find scripture that directly relates to what you are going through and pray and/or repeat that scripture and know in your heart that it is the true living word of God, and watch what happens. God is so amazing and we are so blessed to be called His!

[@NotDuncan]

A year ago I was only concerned with my hedonism and seeking pleasure. At the start of the new year everything felt off and wrong, and in the end I turned to Jesus and repented. All glory to God because if it were up to me I would still be doing the same things. I thought I would die by the very addictions I was feeding, and I was perfectly fine with that. I was given a new heart, a new life and a new purpose. I didn’t know true freedom until I submitted myself to God, I didn’t know true love until I invited Jesus into my heart and life, I didn’t know true discipline until I had the Holy Spirit in my life. All glory and praise belong to God. I would ask for prayers, but I think we all need them these days. God bless you and keep you, stay strong and true in faith.

The timing of this is so crazy. I can't help but think that this was meant for me

[@misochi5277]

Alex this is crazy. I've literally been talking about wanting to quit my job, mainly because physically it drains me even tho I do it well, it takes out more then it puts in. I haven't watched the video yet but just seeing the title ik it's probably not about literally quitting your job, but this is too on the nose for what I've been talking about for so many fays

[@kerri.xo.]

literally what I’m going through right now, when I was scrolling through my KZbin and I seen the video title it stopped me in my tracks. I asked God a few days ago in prayer to give me a sign that I can’t deny that it was sent from him.

[@faithnfruits]

I’m going through a stage right now at my job in which I feel i’m in bondage to it. Before my new boss came in, it was manageable and actually fun but now with him there it’s so tyrannical and he makes me feel like I shouldn’t be complaining and be grateful for all he’s “done for me”. It feels quite manipulative and gaslighting. I don’t feel good being there spiritually and mentally but I continue because i’m like he’s right, it’s a job I should just be grateful. I’m praying God will reveal what my next move should be cause to be honest he reminds me of the scripture of the devil prowling around. It frightens me.

This video inspired me to create a video about the great resignation. It took me about 6 months to create this on top of my full-time job, setting aside at least 4x of 1 hr workout per week, cooking healthy foods that take hours to prepare, rejecting so many night outs just to spend more time pursuing my passion while having so many people discourage me from creating meaningful videos online like this channel. As you can tell, personal development isn’t a joke because there are so many sacrifices to be made, which are often uncomfortable but knowing that there are also so many like-minded individuals who have passion for becoming a better version of themselves each day and who are willing to show support makes me more motivated to keep pursuing my passion for creativity and intense desire to provide as much value as I could. When I was a kid, all I wanted was to have a career that pays well so I can buy whatever I want but now that I’m grown up and went through tons of setbacks from losing tons of people in my life, getting lost in the world with full of life traps, being ridiculed for pursuing my dreams, having so many people tell me that I’m merely wasting my time creating a meaningful content online, and so on, I can say that long-lasting happiness can’t be bought or earned because it comes from within us

Woohoo!!! HalleluYAH! Baby Luke is tooooooo cute ☺️~ I would really love to quit my job (kinda) although I’m a NICU nurse, so I get to hang out with and care for amazing babies all day. Yet and still it’s the environment of the hospital~ personalities and working for the county. I love the idea of walking away from my ties to the “system” and being full time for Jesus. I’ve always believed that will be the greatest adventure. I love what you and your family are doing. Beautiful! God bless you and your family abundantly.

I think young men need to leave the "job" of video games. Video games are a job now, you can no longer pick up and play then go do something else. It's working hard at something that is meaningless.

[@Daogchannel1]

Eh it depends. I agree with you but disagree as well. I think multiplayer games are dangerous as it is soul sucking and time consuming. These online communities are often toxic, require too much dedication and time, and causes stress for many people. I think there’s a healthy balance, not everyone that games play for hours and hours on end. I probably play like what? 1-2 hours per day? I have a perfectly health relationship with gaming but I recognize not everyone does and that is core of the issue, not the entire aspect of video games itself.

[@isaiahlowe3788]

I just thinking this but I believe this can apply to anything. Playing video games, over eating, lusting to name a few. Yesterday, I was confused because I no longer enjoy watching tv or playing video games. God calls us away from certain things to improve our relationship with him

This is one of Jesus's hardest teachings, that few follow because we don't WANT to get it... *_Mark 10:21 ESV_*_ - And Jesus, looking at him, loved him, and said to him, “You lack one thing: go, sell all that you have and give to the poor, and you will have treasure in heaven; and come, follow me.”_ Oh but wait now, that was Jesus's instruction for ONE individual, zeroing in on his problem. Right? That's what preachers are always telling us. But what about this... *_Matthew 13:44 ESV_*_ - “The kingdom of heaven is like treasure hidden in a field, which a man found and covered up. Then in his joy he goes and sells all that he has and buys that field.“_ And what about this one... *_Luke 14:33 ESV_*_ - So therefore, any one of you who does not renounce all that he has cannot be my disciple._ Something tells me a lot of people are going to be hearing THIS on the Last Day... *_Luke 6:46 ESV_*_ - “Why do you call me ‘Lord, Lord,’ and not do what I tell you?“_

[@Awsme]

God does not expect every Christian to be poor and have nothing though. Applying these verses literally, Jesus is telling us to all be homeless and live on the streets with nothing. The whole theme of the New Testament is surrounding the condition of the human heart. The key is 1 John 2:16 “Do not love the world or the things in the world. If anyone loves the world, the love of the Father is not in him.” It’s fine to have things within reason, for everyone will be accountable to God. It’s about asking ourselves, if God asked me to give it up today, would I? That’s how to discern an idol.
