    If God is asking you to fast something in ur life I say Amen I think of fasting as humbly deny something of the flesh to glorify God! I fasted many things in my life at different times. With Facebook i Started w three months off F.B desided I didn't need it and ended up giving it completely to God been 13months now no f.b Praying for you 🙏 God is definitely at work.

    Christie Borton with all due respect that is just plain manipulated opinion and not biblical. It is very dangerous to interpret scripture to accommodate it to our goals. The reason for Fasting is to weaken the Flesh and the ONLY way to do that is to is omit Foods (Biblical Based) If one decides to not do or participate in certain behaviors then it is a decision but not biblical Fasting. Simply not supported biblically and the Bible is NOT meant to be interpreted to our convenience. It is LITERAL, hence the Living Word of God. I would read up on the Addiction to Social Medial and its cause and the impact it has in the brain which is exactly the same as a person who is an addict to addictive substances.

    I've been comparing myself to my friends and where they are in life. This had me envious of them. This had me to be self-critical of myself, and it was depressing me. Comparing yourself to others is a toxic thing to do. It brings you to hold yourself up to their standards, but everyone has the purpose that God has given them. Just like God has given each person their purpose in life, so do you. The only person that you should be proving to yourself to is God and yourself. Well, I just wanted to say this because I've been doing that same thing, and it was distracting me from the purpose that God has made for me. Anyways God bless ya.😁

    If you're not careful you will become bitter , angry , depressed and take it out on the people that don't even know that you are harboring that type of anxiety. It will eat at your soul little by little and make you feel worse because than you start to beat yourself up because you feel that you're not the Christians that Jesus taught us to be. We can't let this stuff take root in our lives and becareful where you turn to get rest. Make sure you take it to God first. ( not binge watch on Netflix to feel better or comfort food or friends that are going to jump on that band wagon instead of lift and encourage you). Remember to take yourselves out , step back and let God do His thing. (Personal experience) Thanks Pastor Furtick 🙏we need this.

    @@BeautifulDelights951 try to remember that you're responsible for you don't try to make everyone happy. No one can be responsible for your joy ( they have issues of their own). The key thing is keep your eyes up and not at the situation. I made the mistake of trying to find comfort in all the wrong places and all of it worked a little but it was temporary and I was miserable. There is so much truth in scriptures and putting on the full Amor of God. Many confuse happiness (of the flesh ) to joy ( the gift of the holy spirit) the fact that you're not alone and how you handle it makes a difference in someone else's life when they face this same situation. Everything we do is for the Lord your reward is not of this earth so focus on the love that you can share and not the cost of it. You will feel better. The most that you can remember is how it feels and the sympathy you will have for others (because we don't know their story). God truly Loves you and it's important that we share that to those who feel like we did or do. Always talk to God. When it feels like he isn't doing anything , that's when he's got every angel working the most. You mean more to him than you can ever imagine ( if only you could see into the spiritual realm, you would see the army of angels standing right there with you and the commander and chief organizing your path). Never give up . HE WILL NEVER GIVE UP ON YOU.

    No longer will any of those things have any Residence in the children of the Lord. God is calling for His people to be set free. Sanctified by Christ with chains broke now given the Lord Jesus Christ's yolk, the Light of Truth we are not held back any more. Be careful little Minds what you believe because what we believe in your heart and confess with our mouths is what we are. Come to God boldly knowing Jesus Christ. Drink from the Holy Grail that IS His blood that precious sacrifice is enough. Sons and Daughters of the True Living God, release the ashes of the past, rise up into who God made you to BECOME. What we choose to believe, is what we then believe. take a hold of the beauty of his Everlasting love. Believe it and receive it. We are more than Overcomers in Christ. Greater is He who is us, than he who is in the world. Egypt's king believe what he believed and didn't even see it coming , his lack of belief in compliance to the truth that the Hebrews were the children of God, or maybe it was his pride, either way ultimately brought him to his death. In conclusion purposefully choose the proper belief and let go of the ones that want us dead.

    Notes on a powerful message: You are built different. Don’t compare and be weighted a burden meant for someone else. Live Not for a post or for popularity but for Christ’s purpose! Live unto Jesus or it’ll kill your contentment. Don’t kill your purpose in your insecurities; PEOPLE DONT CARE, they’re preoccupied themselves trying to impress others. Don’t miss out on Gods unique plan for YOU trying to live out another persons which you were not built for. I’ve been struggling with living up to people expectations, preoccupied pleasing people I lose sight of my true purpose from God. I’ve struggled with comparison and the fear of not being pretty or smart enough. Life is not a competition, each person has a different race to run. Everyone’s trying to figure out themselves, stop carrying a pressure that is only inflicted by yourself. Embrace your difference and specialness in Christ!

    I needed to hear this. I'm a musician, a drummer, self-taught and have been playing for about 10 years now and I see so many drummers my age(26) or younger who are playing in bands, playing in concerts, playing in churches meanwhile I'm still stuck playing in my garage. I find myself beating myself down with comparison to those who have already "made it". But I hear that we shouldnt compare ourselves to others becuz we're all on different pathes and our gifts will be shown in His time, not in the time of the person next to you. It's hard to grasp that and continue to work on myself with no comparison. This is half the reason why I got off of social media.

    As a fellow musician who's also self-taught, I hope you're feeling better, man😊. Indeed, it's tempting to think of such things, especially since we can only do so much with our uncontrollable situation. But we must realize that we don't know what that person went through or is still going through behind the scenes. I know you're an amazing and great drummer without the need to post anything or prove anything. Being self-taught alone means your talent is God-given. God bless you man!

    I understand this very much... All mine and my Husband's marriage we felt like we were constantly trying to be around my family in nice, respectful ways... Them turn around and try an fit in with his Family who didn't like me from me being me... I showed kindness and respect an had no idea I was in a room with nothing but evilness... Randy and I were young an Randy starved his Mamas love an Happiness.. He would steal her nice things. Give her money, whatever he could do just to fit in... I intimidated them in ways they know was wrong but I stayed strong and knew God would take care of it in his time.. Years later he did ... I have prayed very hard over his 3 siblings that are alive but are not welcome to see me, my grown kids, or my Granddaughters... Story for another time.. It's in the book ...Feeling sorry for Randy started our relationship getting closer. His folks wouldn't even let him sleep on their couch... 17 years old now... My heart hurt for him....This was in 1983 when we began a relationship... Young, wild, partied all the time and free .. I knew though Randy was broken down inside an Later in our marriage I would get a better understanding.... Randy, back then knew the name God but didn't understand it or really believe it... I was raised up in Church an was saved, baptized an know God is my Lord an Savior....If he an I hadn't became close he may have never believed an later on get saved... Anyway I enjoy Pastor Steven and I hope to have a book very soon... God bless you all.

    I came out to show Who I Really Am. Sin is choice and his word would never put anyone to shame. 1jonh 4:1Teaches about warning. (We are to come boldly to the throne)He who has an ear let him hear what the spirit is saying) The truth will make you free. My ex-mother-in-law was a preacher for drug addicts alcoholics and prostitutes. And her favorite saying was he who is without sin cast the first stone. I have no position to judge anyone. But I do remember her telling me this she said God was going to use me one day. Holly had one message I was not ready for this.3John1:12. Thank you for the teaching.
