Spirit of Gluttony | Lies and Tactics of the enemy.

This is a follow-up video from my first Spirit of Gluttony video. In this video, I go more in-depth at how the Spirit of Gluttony operates behind the scenes and make you aware of how it could derail you on your healthy eating and/or weight loss journey.

[@sprucingupmayhem]

I watched your first video about gluttony. When you said that the demon of gluttony rides on a horse named sugar, it changed my life. God gave me a tool in my journey of defeating gluttony and I just want to thank you for your obedience in putting these videos out. In the name of Jesus I am free from the chains of gluttony and I will continue to resist the enemy and watch him flee.

[@Dana_Bellamy]

Wonderful! I am happy for you!! ☺️💞

[@starval]

This gives me hope. I’m still fighting it

[@lilywhite]

Yes, I agree!!! Thanks so much for posting these videos. It’s been the most helpful out of the hundreds of videos I’ve looked into for help with overeating. God bless you many times for this act of good will!! So helpful!

[@sarahq8728]

Yes! Changed my life and my sons - shared it with him. Thank you Dana

[@sylvietoopretty]

I’ve been crying & praying to God about Gluttony for the past 2 days. I woke up this morning & made a change!!! Then your video popped up! Nothing but God ❤

Thank you Dana for this godly message!

[@GardeniasandGrace]

I am reading through the comments and it is so encouraging to see that i am not the only one who struggles with this and others are overwhelming the spirit of gluttony. Praise God. ❤🙏

[@tavijoseph9026]

Honestly today I decided to fast and I watched part 1 of your video and it was just God because I hadn’t watched any videos about the topic but been praying out loud and listening to sermons. Miraculously, when I go to my search history it says “gluttony” when the last thing I actually searched for was just below it. I am so grateful. It’s only God I’m amazed.

[@Dana_Bellamy]

Your phone was listening, but this time it was used for good! I am glad you found me! :)

[@happi_herbals6859]

Hey Dana I am sooo happy you did not obey the enemy. God wanted you to do this video so that I could resist the devil and break this vicious cycle. Your life sounds like a replica of mine! This is unbelievable! Even being an introvert... and struggling with gluttony spirit...I was praying this morning and telling God that there is no one to help me... then I went in the kitchen to do the dishes and decided to listen to something while doing them. Then you popped up on my screen. This also taught me something that it's best to be obedient to God when He wants us to do something. Because someone out there may be in a battle and need help. You have been a blessing. You have a new subscriber, I live in Jamaica 🇯🇲 keep being obedient to the Lord Dana.

[@Dana_Bellamy]

Aww. That was a beautiful and encouraging comment to wake up to this morning. Thank you for sharing how the Lord led you to my video and how it helped you! ☺️💕

[@sharonjeremiah3457]

Hmmm. "No in the name of Jesus" to every thought of gluttony. Thank you very much ma

[@ChooseJesus.]

It was God who put your video on my screen yesterday. I was asking him how the enemy works so I could fight him better. I had fallen off the healthy eating wagon again and was being attacked with severe cravings and never satisfied. Depression etc... I knew I was a slave to food, which is so discouraging. Thank you for doing the hard things by making this video. I enjoy your failures because you're Real & it's so much easier to learn from someone who's transparent about the struggle. I have the same thoughts that you speak of and that shouts that it really is satan tripping us up. Why would I crave unhealthy junk when I don't want to eat it?! It's the opposite of what I want and not what the Lord wants. THE ENEMY IS EXHAUSTING, but he will not get to torment and trip us up forever! It's beautiful to finally understand that I am not alone. It's nice to hear how you fight the enemy, I learn best from examples. Not many people teach like you do because it takes humility to say your struggles. There is a lack of humility & honesty even in the body of believers these days. Thank you for speaking truth in a open and transparent way. Praying for you to catch all the enemies traps& tricks🙏🏼💗

[@Dana_Bellamy]

Thank you so much for your kind comment. It means a lot. I am so happy that I can share my struggles to help someone else. The enemy is cruel and I am glad he is being exposed. I wish you all the best on your journey! You are victorious!

[@Dana_Bellamy]

Aww. You’re so welcome! It blesses me that I was able to help! ☺️

[@hollybrown3453]

Thank you so much for this video! So many people struggle in silence with gluttony! Our society teaches us to have an unhealthy relationship with food from the time we are young. Food is a reward for an achievement, or a comfort in times of sorrow. It is how we show kindness to a neighbor and how we nurture friendships. If only we could all do a reset and learn to quit making food the centerpiece of every life event. Perhaps we would be healthier and happier. Perhaps many of us would find ourselves closer to God and further from the shame of food addiction. You are an inspiration. Thank you for this message. Prayers for all who struggle to keep food in its proper place.

[@Fuzzy_Halo]

I love the way you think. Please, could you say a prayer for me? Thank you.

[@hollybrown3453]

Absolutely!

[@meganramsey4743]

You’re so right, God bless!

[@S.Nicole1090]

It's 12:25 am where I am right now and I've been battling with night time eating. I literally ate dinner already and got myself 2 more pieces of pizza in my room right now...I was going to eat them but this is right on time for me ! I am saying NO to the enemy now. I really needed this in my life right now. I've never listened to you or seen your channel before but tonight this video came across my feed. Thank you God, I give you all the praise and glory !

[@Dana_Bellamy]

I know that struggle very well! I am proud of you for resisting and not going with the lie, “I’ll eat them tonight and do better tomorrow.” 👏🏻👏🏻

[@artistocracy]

My body works best on OMAD, too, Dana. I’m carnivore and have no cravings at all. Butter and mct oil in coffees does not spike insulin and aids fasting, plus sugarless electrolytes in water for hydration. I’m Australian 69 y/o active woman in rural SA, and have been told I must be in my 50’s. Trusting God and his holy word, and working to be fit and healthy is key. No meds for me, whatsoever! Carnivore way of eating has removed all inflammation, and pain from past car accident injuries so I highly recommend it. Great message, sister. 🙏🇦🇺✝️🥺🥩🍳🍗☕️

[@wendyputnam184]

[@praygal7237]

So grateful that the Lord brought this sweet voice into my life. I have been doing IF for a couple months and lately struggling with the binge ( gluttony) . The Lord in His mercy is teaching me each day and this is one more tool. I also pray in the spirit throughout the day and it just hit me when you talked about the gum, I can’t pray if I am on a binge. Wow!!!! The enemy is a liar. Thank you again 💛🧎‍♀️💛

[@Dana_Bellamy]

That’s so wonderful! I’m so glad I could help. ☺️💕

[@happi_herbals6859]

This is so true, when I binge eat I can't pray as much or don't have the urge to do it.

[@Bellbell01137]

Thank you for sharing this. I stopped sugar 4 months ago, and my doctor was so amazed with my bloodwork. She said I’m on way to stopping my diabetes medication and my diabetes going. I was eating way too much and all sweet foods, so I can relate, but I never clicked it was the enemy. Thank you lord for opening my eyes again. God bless you and your family. Thank you lovely friend for doing Gods work and helping us. I cover us all in the world with the blood 🩸 of Jesus. 🕊️🙌🕊️🙌

Wow! That’s wonderful how you are gaining so much health by cutting out sugar! And I am glad I could help in your journey. ☺️💕

[@GodsChosen_7]

Hey Dana I literally prayed this morning and asked God how to deal or address my terrible eating habits and initially didn’t want to blame the enemy but myself. You hit the nail on the head when you said the enemy plants thoughts in your mind and we just have to speak against it and rebuke the enemy when he does that! Also I am too a complete and total introvert lol thank you for your courage to share and thank you for your honesty and for loving our God and Lord and Savior the way you do! God bless you and your family ✝️❤️🙏🏻

[@kaiasare-okai5689]

This was such a HUGE blessing to me. I felt like you were telling me about me. Thank you for being obedient to the Lord

[@mfigueroa2079]

Your video has been popping up on my suggestions and I’ve been scrolling past and last night I finally decided to watch. I absolutely know the lord was working in me because this is what I needed. I’ve never thought of the fact that the enemy also plays a role in our food and how he tries to destroy us that way. Thank u so much. I am starting a new journey with food and I will no longer put myself down when I fail or have tempting thoughts because I know it’s the enemy and not me.

[@leilanikimbrell9281]

I too have had my eyes opened. Why wouldn’t the enemy use food. I’m an addict in remission. I have 10 years of sobriety. The devil tried to take me out with drugs and alcohol and used men as my trigger. I’ve even put relationships on hold. No man I’ve met so far has been worthy. I can wait on God. I think of all the other ploy’s the enemy has used to break me. Why didn’t I realize that my sugar addiction is from him too. I used to justify my eating and would tell myself it’s okay , you can eat that, at least you aren’t drinking or drugging. Have that 500 calorie Crumble Cookie, it’s harmless. Now I’m 80 lb over weight, my joints ache, the inflammation keeps me in constant pain, it’s hard for me to do my job, I don’t participate in activities I once loved, I’m ashamed of my body, my self esteem is at an all time low. The list goes on. Well, I’m a forced to be reckoned with. I quit one of the hardest drugs to stop using and all I did was ask God to remove my mental obsession and take the taste out of my mouth. That was 10 years ago. Then 5 years ago I asked him the same thing when it came to cigarrets. God is Good

[@4realstuph]

I can identify with everything you said. The enemy is truly trying to destroy us by any means necessary. Keep strong in the Lord and in thevpower of His might!

I watched the Ted Talk video you shared and I never thought that I am wearing out my pancreas from over working it. I sure don’t want to have to take insulin for type 2. Our bodies are the temple for the Holy Spirit. I can totally relate to what you are saying. Last year I had to stop and recognize there were too many voices in my head that were driving me insane. I got into the scriptures because of it. Thanks for sharing and being real so that we can all be benefited on our journey.

Dana, thank you for making these videos and sharing what God has told you and led you to do. I've been in this downward spiral with food- convenience foods, carbs, sugar, over eating, emotional eating. Last night all I could do was cry. I have not been able to make decisions. My thoughts don't feel like my own. I cannot figure out what to do. I go back and forth in my head on everything. I felt paralyzed. My fiancee reminded me to pray. Today I came across your first video on gluttony and it has resonated with me so much. I do believe that it is an answered prayer from God. Please continue to share what you can. ❤ God bless you and your family. ❤

I love your bravery for putting yourself out there in this way. I think it’s so beautiful and so important. I have to say, I don’t agree that all cravings before a menstrual cycle would be simply the work of the enemy, I know that when the body is deficient in any one key nutrient it can trigger cravings and we can so easily be off balance with todays American diet but I believe the enemy is responsible for todays standard American diet. The enemy is playing the long game with our diet and eating habits and all of the horrible foods in our grocery stores. I strongly, believe I am struggling with the spirit of gluttony and I am searching for strength through the Lord and Savior through prayer and scripture right now!!!! I’m under attack!!!!! I clicked on this video and quickly went through my cupboards and freezer throwing out everything that is sweet. I have already been living a sugar-free lifestyle for years now, but it’s the artificial sweeteners I allow myself to have that are the weapon of attack being used against me. His tactic is portion control and weakening my ability to practice restraint. The enemy wants me to think it’s OK to indulge because I’ve done so good for so long and convinces me it’s only fair because other people in my family get to enjoy a sweet treat but it goes far beyond that!!! Even with healthy things like dried dates for example, I shouldn’t be eating more than two or three a day if at all and here I’m eating half of a bag. It is absolutely the enemy and I can’t do it anymore!! I feel horrible and disgusting afterwards and that’s exactly the enemies aim! Dear Lord, please grant me the strength I need to overcome the enemy in these moments. Please lord?! 🙏

[@Dana_Bellamy]

That’s good that you’re following the Lord’s leading for your life. It’s absolutely possible that other people get cravings before their periods because of a poor diet. I can’t speak for everyone. I can only speak for myself. Thanks for your comment. ☺️

Thank you. This was exactly what l needed. The challenges are the same for me. I could identify with what you are saying. Thanks for the battle plan to conquer gluttony. Praise God! 🙌
