I have to repent Father for the pitiful mindset. Yesterday I was ao upset and self hate was at an all time high. I felt it through my body and stress began to grow. Holy Spirit is truly a gift and blessing because He encouraged me to listen to this already telling me that I'm my own problem right now. I'm in my own way of God redeeming love in my heart. Devil you are a liar. I'm no longer and orphan and today, no longer pitiful. I don't want to grieve God nor be stubborn. I choose to break through these devilish thoughts. I'm empowered to step into new freedom, confidence, peace, and stability. I Speak Jesus over my mind and emotions. I speak Jesus over my identity and heart. Forgive me for being pitiful and ungrateful. Thank you for helping me come to myself. I need you Father. Bless me the strength overcome poor self image, pity, victim mentality. I love you and grateful to see another day to get it right 🙏🏾

Amen!! I eceive this same blessing over my life, in Jesus's Name. Amen. .Thank you for sharing

This best video on self pity I can understand why I do it and others. I see why some people don’t like others cause they don’t like themselves. We must know our identity in Christ. Don’t rely on people .

This message is like medicine for my soul. I needed to hear this. Wow..So empowering!

The insights here are stunning. Wisdom from the mind of the Lord. God grant me, and others who need this, the courage to embrace them.

This is so timely for me. I do know that I am always trying to garner sympathy. It feel embarrassed that it’s such a problem in my life. I will listen to this!!!! Self pity is easy to see in others, maybe not so much in ourselves. I’m beyond grateful for you Mark.

Thank you Mark for sharing this excellent, truthful teaching!

This really opened my eyes more on how viscous self pity is, and really added onto your older videos in this subject. And as unpleasant as it was to have everything register, I'm so grateful you made this video. Thanks for being so compassionate and sensitive to the Spirit. It's time to stretch and continue stepping forward

Self pitty has been my default setting for as long as i can remember but i didnt realize it until recently. I thank God for you brother and your ministry. Time to get some break thru!

I just wanna say thank u Mark. May God cover and keep you. Thank u for always being positive. I hope God can use me to do the same thing.

I've really got winter blues/ depression 😮. Thanks Mark

I feel the same way. I just can not help myself,... friends, family and professionals try... but, im not getting better.

I have self pity..! Its my only vocabulary now. I have totally destroyed my life.. became of my wrongful decisions and mistakes. I hate myself, for what I've done and caused. In all this... i lost my career job of 20yrs! It was my fault again. I just finally lost it. I had a panic attack, and collapsed. I lost interest in life, as it's been destroyed by my mouth, or my actions. I was seen by Psychiatrist; suffering from grief, ptsd, severe depression, anxiety and insomnia. I know im wallowing in self pity again!! Im in so much pain and agony. I know im not the only one ... i just know im weak, and im unable to handle.

Wow this was so informative and thank you for making this video. Everything u mentioned is me. I'm in recovery and regardless of abstaining and trying to do the steps in AA. It was mentioned if I don't get rid of the self pity I become unteachable and stubborn. Which is really where I'm at now. I need to surrender and stop looking back like the verse you mentioned in Luke 9:62. I will try harder because I can't keep living this way. It sucks up so much of the joy in my life that I could give to my kids but I can't do that because I often don't like myself and am in this funk often. I say it's depression and society does too but maybe just maybe your right. I'm stuck in patterns of thinking for so long because of toxic upbringings and trauma but I don't want to stay there and I won't. I repent my sin of self pity. Please remove this character defect as it stands in the way of my usefulness to you(God).

Love the break down brother of self pity. What it does to us, how to deal with it and how to overcome it. ❤️‍🔥

I needed to hear this too, i was pretty much doing EVERYTHING listed here. Im ready to start moving away from self pity. Its a journey, theres no quick fix but im ready to move forward

Mark this was spot on!!!! Thank you so much !!!

Thank you. This really spoke to me.

Excellent, thank you. Right before this popped up, I was telling the Lord "I know I'm not Joseph, but I feel like Joseph." Even considering changing my name to Josephine. Ha! God's timing is perfect. God bless you, Sir.

Thanks!

You are a Godsend, thank you. ❤

Thanks mark God bless

Hi Mark and thank you so much for your video. I appreciate your ministry and I am learning a lot. My husband and I do a bit of counseling and right now I can think of 2 people (I'm sure there's others) who really struggle and are steeped in self-pity in our congregation. What would you say is the best approach to someone who has been soaking in s.p.? I know when I see, them they will get on their rant. What is the best way to lovingly help handle them?

This is definitely what I need to work on.

This teaching described me to the tee💯

@Mark DeJesus Great video, but it leads me to an important question. I have spent my whole adult life working hard *not* to have a victim mentality (in spite of some very challenging trials and traumatic life events) because I loathe the whole victim-mentality thing. Having said that, while my *mind* seems to process things well, my *body* is always like, “Haha not so fast” and proceeds to have panic attacks, anxiety issues, fear, etc. So the question is, how do we process things in a healthful way (so that our physical body is on board) without walking in a victim mindset?

Hi Mark! I struggle with scrupulosity OCD and I get questions in my mind about being saved and I wonder if I am a Christian at all! I do read the Bible and I do understand most of it. I do pray and I sometimes believe that God is not there, listening to me.

🙏

Can someone with self pity develop anxyety and then health problems

As i watched, it's assumed the answers are already in you and you don't need to keep asking questions. But, people really have a lot of questions about why things are happening to them and it's seems consistent questioning to find answers is put in the self pity box.

Mark but you don´t understand, I am the worst self-pity person in the universe 😜

Self nurture ?

As someone who has cptsd and has been struggling with these thoughts for over 20 years I can shortly answer: if it’s not an impulsive act, a quick reaction to something so horrific that caused your brain to stop properly functioning, the answer is yes!! Otherwise, It’s a selfish act, you know you will cause loved ones to suffer but do that anyway, put your desire ( even such a dark one ) above anything else. My love for my family stopped me from doing that, I could feel how horrible I would make them feel and how much pain I would cause and could never do this to them!! They don’t deserve to go through it!! My love for them saves me when I have no amount left for myself…Some people do it as a form of punishment to others…I’d rather feel miserable than surrender to evil. It’s ok not to be ok,accepting your weakness brings humility. In humility you meet Grace!! Through Grace you feel Love…Love starts the healing process ❤
