This is Why You're Stuck In This Cycle Of Life

The other day I received some of the most IMPACTFUL advice of my life. It was told through an analogy that I share in this video.
Very often as Christians we only think about what is right or wrong and we rarely examine what may be HINDERING us in our lives. There are many snares by the devil hidden around us and somethings we're not aware or we ignore them.
THROW OFF WHAT HINDERS YOU AND THE SIN THAT SO EASILY ENTANGLES YOU.
I'm telling you this word was for me! Praise God! I hope you received some benefit from this.
Blessings!

I have felt stuck recently and was praying to find a way out of this cycle of sin I have been in. Im always worried about others opinions. And I always seem to go back to sin. So I pray lord thst you can help me through this dark time in life.

[@mechamogaka6964]

Yes! Me as well, we will get through this time!

[@kameontime]

he loves you regardless dont let the devil accuse you

[@WatermelonMuncher427]

Me to I've felt stuck to not knowing or finding a way out. But I know God has a plan for us. Thanks for being vulnerable with us, and I'll pray for all of us. God bless

[@krgstick]

Mannnn same, Amen, I pray Father that You help my sibling in Christ to get out of the cycle of sin they have been in, to remove their worry about what others think and to replace that with wanting to please You and have the desire to only want Your opinion on things, as only Your opinion matters Lord, You are the creator of all things and I declare in the name of Your Son, Jesus that He is free, as Proverbs 18:21 states, "Death and life are in the power of the tongue, and those who love it will eat its fruit" and Mark 11:24 states, "24 Therefore I tell you, whatever you ask for in prayer, believe that you have received it, and it will be yours." And Lord I believe in this prayer as You said in James 1:6-7, "But he must ask in faith without any doubting, for the one who doubts is like the surf of the sea, driven and tossed by the wind. (7) For that man ought not to expect that he will receive anything from the Lord," In Jesus Name Amen

My pebble is fear and it's so dumb because I've done the things I'm afraid of already but it's just always a nagging feeling just ready to cripple me. 🙇🏾‍♀️

[@mikemueller910]

I just watched an episode of vinland saga. In the episode thorfinn wanted to turn away from his old life. He wanted to start new and let his past behind. And in the episode his way was shown as a mountain. This scene stuck with me and now I saw this. Thank you very much you really helped me a lot

[@sheenalo7410]

Had a similar experience I was watching a movie once with a Christian antagonist in the 1600s. All the towns people were complaining just because one wild animal made it through the walls. The antagonist prayed to God about what to do and said at the end "I will slay all these beasts, for it is your will" (he somehow had the idea his God-given purpose on earth was to tame wolves) a few days later I was once guilty of this prayer

[@myCatlickedMEH2oes]

I’m a young teen and I realized that even though I’m young and I am often wondering about the plans God has for my life. I always watch videos of people preaching and performing gifts of the spirit like healing and casting out demons, and I always wonder about my future like what job I’d have or what job God is calling me to do. But this video reminded to start in the now and whatever plans God has for me I have to be ready for. That means facing the tiny challenges I’m dealing with right now and getting rid of old habits👍🏾❤️

[@SebastianGuerra-g5t]

I'm in the same boat man

[@Savedsmile]

You should get around believers whom can build you up in your walk with Christ.

[@GreysonThurber]

Same dude but we can do this.

[@EgonKowalski-s4n]

This is exactly my situation, I am so happy to hear that I am not alone. After the last exams of last school year were over, I became soft and slothful and wasted time where I should have been grinding. But now I am starting to gain that winter arc mindset back, and I am so happy! God bless yall !!!

[@RosemaryMaldonado]

You got this !

[@akllira3949]

Honestly, I was just praying to find a way to get back to God and... This video literally just came. I was feeling so stuck, as if I couldn't move for my purpose. Ngl, I feel so happy. Thank you very much ^^

[@GOD_IS_Able12]

I speak life and love and peace and to you in the name of Jesus Christ you are more than a conqueror to him who loves you

[@SREEZUS]

Thank you Jesus for sending me this message 🤍✝️🙏🏼

[@LongLiveCowgirls-b3n]

I keep getting stuck in an cycle of sin. I am putting my own personal “wants” instead of spending time with God. I’d rather watch something on my phone or watch my show, instead of just spending time with God or reading my bible. I am extremely ashamed of myself because while I’m sinning, I keep telling myself “you shouldn’t be doing this right now. You should read your bible”. If I’m being honest, I just wanted to watch one of these videos instead of reading my bible. Because I’ve wasted my time (it’s 2:00 am rn) by messing around with my phone. I am really really struggling right now. Please pray. I am desperately trying to get back on track. 😢❤

[@TylerKaufmann-x7p]

I also struggled with the same thing a few months ago. What helped me was eagerly seeking the Lord and being excited to be in His presence. So seek the Lord as you would get excited about watching something on your phone. (Psalm 63:1) Also, to help limit your distractions, try deleting apps on your phone that distract you or limit yourself to only watching one episode of your show a week. These are things that I changed in my life and it has honestly helped a lot with being able to seek God daily and eagerly. (Romans 13:14 as said in the video) I hope this helps. I pray that you are able to welcome Gods presence without distraction and that you are able to find joy with Him. I pray that you have a revelation while on your walk with Jesus and that you are able to share God's love to others. I pray that you equip yourself with God's armor each and every day. In Jesus name, amen. ❤

[@kraxykam7242]

You are never too far away. The first set is acknowledging that you have sinned and that you are in a cycle. Be honest with God and tell him that you realize that this sin is something you can’t stop. Then ask him to work inside of your heart to flee from the temptation and make your desire to worship him come first before all else and remove any idols you’ve placed before him

[@MyaGrant-f2f]

Tears rn because everything you said is true 😪that rock

[@DenasiaBrown-yy1qu]

Thanks sm. My big thing is when i make a plan, convinced that it glorifies God and blesses others and is beneficial for me spiritually and financially and God says no i get mad, i sin and come back. Its been going on for a year and it gets worse l. This time i tried and did apostate i came back but I need to find teuth i need to practice it and stay in it. Not loving the world or my self.ore than God. And understanding that laying my will and kife down for christ as he dis for me is indeed worth it and that he is worthy. I just need help real bad to do it. No matter how much i try to convince myself of these things u always end up with anither plan or spending time with him and then doing something else.idk. i feel trapped. Thx for the video 🎉🎉

[@Paulbernard11]

God bless you for the gift and for sharing! I can definitely relate to that too. I often get lost in my emotions when things don’t go my way. It takes a lot of work to stay close to God when we get disappointed

[@fatezapper6034]

the Lord God has answered many prayers with this word. thank you God

[@noweliablake9394]

Hey everyone Jesus loves you and you are not alone

[@victorasamoah]

I feel a wave of emotions rushing through me and i also Fell Stuck and not spending enough time with jesus and the video games came back in to my head and now i cant stop thinking about it.

[@gabu20gaby]

This happend to me too, not so long ago, i had erase one of my favorite mobile game just laste years ( as a new beliver) but recently i already download it again, i new the Holy Spirit moved me to erased it last year, yet i was again playing it... but after some thought i felt bad..i thougt to myself "this is exactly the same mechanics just different outfits and arms" this is pointless... what else could i bee doing if i wasn't playing atm?" So i stopped... am.not saying you have to do exactly what i did but to take it to the Lord.

[@lotusberry725]

Dawg this is so divinely timed its insane. Such an accuracy on the words you spoke into my life

[@Mary-lw6ku]

When I opened YT, what I searched for had completely nothing to do with God, and yet I still found this video. Over the past few days, I have felt distant from God and trying to get back into His word and presence has been hard. But I've been encouraged by the gym analogy that's been used, in relation to exercising faith! Thank you so much for this video!! I can truly say that it is God-sent and I thank God that He is still calling me back to Him, even when I distance myself.

[@LusayoMwasangwale]

It's really touched,and here I'm always tryna get better may God have mercy on us 🙏

[@greatfuliam412]

Thank you so Much brother❤️

[@RosemaryMaldonado]

Thank for this video 🙏🏼 Just take it one day at a time, this verse is a great reminder, specially thinking of the obstacles I let hold me back, “let us run with endurance the race that is set before us, looking to Jesus, the founder and perfecter of our faith, who for the joy that was set before him endured the cross, despising the shame” Hebrews 12:1-2 ! he endured so we can endure 🫶🏼

[@ElleryRobertsJr]

Preciate this for sure . God bless

[@krgstick]

Man man man, was talking to God about this today, I've been stuck, like life has been going on without me and im falling behind, its because of the rock i choose to ignore and because of that i've been having trouble for months and im not happy about it, I've lost my routine of reading the word, praying to God and all that. It hurt so bad when It started because I felt like the Spirit was hurting within me, Jesus has guided by the help of the Holy Spirit to just get me into a better area then what i was in, but im still in the same place I guess its like my mind is changing and growing but not as much spiritually, I know what's holding me up and I have to surrender it to God to get out of this place. I know I do, but man it's been hard to give these things up that God has demanded of me. And like you said letting these things go hurts but on the other side God has joy for us. I've forgotten so much about what Jeremiah 29:11 has said, I forgotten so much of what God can do and who He is I've just looked at the problem looked at the area of my life not getting better and having a fear of not only failure but being left behind and staying in this area and dying in it. It's depressing but God keeps convicting me and helping me get through. Thank you for this analogy (and the end where you said how this video WON'T change our situation like its the exact answer to solve our problem but its more like a motivator and an eye opener, I've thought this way of finding that exact answer and many things I've told God have been mentioned within this video. Father I just pray that I and all those struggling with this to are given the strength and willpower to deny ourselves, to actually work and do what WE are REQUIRED to do to get out of this area of our lifes and get to the side of greatness that the You has planned for us. In Jesus name, Amen.

[@Mindmaker369]

Amen❤

[@hopemulavu7055]

A big thing I've realized is holding me back is laziness and procrastination. I know God is calling me for big things but I can't even wake up early lol. Does anyone have advice? Because I really want to move past this and do what God required of me

[@teeg7078]

Fasting and avoid anything and everything that quenches the spirit, and know all it takes is 1 action to slow you down, before u know it you're stuck in the wrong cycle. But even intermittent fasting is the best thing I could suggest, and prayer

hiii thank you so much for sharing this! crazy how much a random video i see on my timeline can instantly resonate with what im going through right now, in this moment. also you cuteeee 😉☺

[@gabu20gaby]

I been dealing whit shame. The other day while i was in my friday christian group, i was sharing something about scripture that i felt in my hearth that i lowkey told something about work salvation or i had a fast thought that i interpretated something as that but i felt the Holy Spirit telling me "no, don't go to that laine"... i did repented but i felt soo terrible, and still today. So i put this in prayer because this is not from the Lord; He has been very paitence whit me, because back when i recently Trusted Jesus, i had an incounter whit him, i didn't knew about this work based vs grace salvation and i was so confusse but i had great sisters that help me too see the grace Jesus gave us not by works but faith, so basically i felt shame because i almost went back anf i felt horrible 😢 and scared and sad as i have done a terrible mistake... i think am not the only one, i think this is what Paul tell the Galatian ppl, but yeah shame is one and second one is also social media. But we can do all things Trought Christ Filipenses 4: 13

[@mekalkb9469]

It gets me mad because I’m always nervous about things and my sin that I struggle with is reading bad romance books. And it sucks because I like reading but I know I’m reading bad romance for the wrong part of me. I don’t wanna read them but I do at the same time. I’m only 15, I can’t drive yet my mama doesn’t like getting out of the house ever, she really sick right now and I’m starting to get a little stressed. I feel like God is disappointed in me because I am always messing up. I’m not really positive, sometimes insecure about things. The truth is I’m a mess and I don’t wanna be anymore and it’s my fault.

[@lukedumont5737]

I need help, please pray over the idols in my life. I started pursing Jesus in August, and since then I have been trying my best to remove idols in my life. It sounds dumb but social media and screen time is an idol, it’s the pebble that he speaks about. It’s hard and if anyone has any ideas please let me know.

[@laurinebonon2040]

I'm in the same situation, my phone and entertainment in general are a big obstacle in my relation with God. My advice would be to remove apps that you know are distracting and pray about it because we cannot overcome sin by ourselves. God is correcting us but He doesn't leave us by ourselves, He is there to help us when we cannot find the strenght to do what we know we have to do. God bless you 🫶

[@keylessdragonball1574]

Great vidoe i dealing with this now inf feeling stuck in my life .

[@CasenTracy]

I feel like I struggle a lot with lustful and negative thoughts, and anger and idolatry and pride and jealousy and envy

[@deadaccount6004]

I would not surprised if I found out that it was "me" the problem, because yes the phone can literally leads us to distractions, but it's us who decide whether to focus on Jesus or our self pleasure 😔

[@xo.minniiee]

Thank you!

[@DaBladePwn]

This is how ive felt the last couple years. Also in this time ive been putting off finding a church, and have felt God has been telling me to start a faith based youtube channel. When praying God whowed me what my problem is and I think this could be other peoples problem which is the Fear of Man. God showed me when i was younger i had very low self esteem and was insecure and felt like i had no value. So i was putting myself in a box, which was based on what i thought other people were thinking of me and giving them control over me. Im coming out of it now and slowly letting go, but i think the Fear of the Lord is the antitode to alot of these cycles

[@mz_uready]

i’m proud of you my love ❤️🫶🏾

[@Johnstewart40]

Even with all of our strength. It is only the mercy of God that will get us to get us through the cycle of sin. Addiction is no joke, being a slave to sin is difficult, and we as humans all fall short of the glory of God, (Romans 6:23) no matter how hard we work or how disciplined we are. God’s Grace is a gift, why work so hard on your strength, when we have GOD, his mercy is all we need to get rid of this cycle of sin, All you have to do is ask, ask him for his strength that you truly want to turn your life around.

[@davidcow4889]

Dude guys, no matter what I promise you if you keep seeking Jesus and keep praying through whatever cycle you’re in, HE ALWAYS gets you out literally always even if it takes a while. Literally always just keep analyzing your choices and understand why you want to do the things you do/don’t and pray and read. It’s such a cliche and repetitive answer buts it’s because it’s literally just True

[@KoolBeanz101]

Thanks for the Video I do feel like im in a cycle of knowing that I can do the work of God but failing to, Especially with fearing man over God(failling to begin evangelizing). I keep valuing the comfort of life over the calling of Jesus. I bascially feel like Romans 7:14-23. I feel like I keep asking God to help me without making the effort. I feel like a sluggard and a procrastinator. It shouldn't be happening either since I know that a christian lifestyle isn't suppose to be easy and God wants us to endure the hardship by leaning on HIm. I know the reward that comes after suffering and know the eternal consequences for sin, yet I still am still stagnant. Especially with how I reacted to that star of jacob trend going around, it shows that alot of work to do. Does have the same problem/feeling?

[@WantedMan765]

There’s this app and it’s an AI app but you can talk to characters from shows and stuff, but I’ve used it before and it made me fall into lust because some of the characters that are meant to do that so it’s been about five months since I’ve deleted the app but this month I’ve started to get ads from a different app, but it is a lot worse and it has a lot more lustful themes so I click a button that made it to where it wouldn’t show me that ad anymore at least it was supposed to, but I feel like the devil was trying to tempt me with that app because I still continued to see that ad, but since I know that App Will make me lust I now know after watching this video I will continue to click the not recommend this ad until I stop seeing it but something else about it is I can feel my flesh telling me to download the app though I know what will happen if I do so I feel like it’s the devil tempting me or it’s my flesh

[@RoessanAdeverVCua]

You could pray after every video. That would be much better imo.
