Breaking Bad Habits in Your Life (Part 1) - Debra Fileta 

I've quit 6 addictions with the help of God, the Bible and prayer over the last decade. I have an addictive personality, so no matter how hard I tried by myself, I could not stop my addictions. I have one addiction left and it's the hardest one to beat because all the others could be stopped completely but this one is not able to be stopped completely. It's an addiction to food, or eating too much all the time causing obesity and diabetes. I am not being treated because I do not go to doctors any longer. I don't trust them. And I also don't want to start taking a drug for it every day. God will deliver me. One mistake I did when I began, besides trying to do it all on my own, was I tried to stop everything at once.

I love getting outside in nature, i hate that i always have to watch my back because the world is not a friendly place. I find it hard to fully relax.

The Lord knows I need this. Thank you!

Pain is a huge motivator .

Bless you all and your ministry that point us towards Christ and His ❤️ heart in Jesus name Amen

Please pray for me. I've been struggling trying to come back to the Lord after years of backsliding. My feelings and thoughts of God being angry at me are so overwhelming I feel defeated. I know my thoughts, feelings, and daily distractions are what is hindering me. I've prayed and asked God to help me understand how to get this under control to get my life back in order. I believe He led me to hear this broadcast and I immediately ordered this book. Please pray for the Holy Spirit to give me the understanding I need to overcome that I may be able to truly walk with the Lord again. Thank you

That’s big for me “don’t just ask anybody”. I tend to do that and I think it’s for me to feel “better about myself” knowing that just anyone does not know who I truly am. But asking my significant other that important question is more vulnerable and more scary!

Loved taking the time to hear this. I liked that the advice was practical, simple to understand (not so simple to do at times but we will get there 😊)

Bought Debra's book. Loved the chapter about toxic optimism

Love Debra Fileta!!!!

Um.... can I disagree with some things? I think we can start looking with a strong world view of: how can I change me? For eg, there was the part where it was mentioned, why not stand outside yourself and examine yourself, how do you talk to people, how do they respond to you? I find this an impossible task. A blind man can not see. His eyes need to be "Opened". So I guess in some instances this is important, but, would it be better to have the view that we do everything as if unto the Lord? And the scripture "do unto others as you would have them do unto you" and a whole bunch more (understatement). I'm all for the personal empowerment stuff, but there has been a mental shift in my mind the last few weeks. We are trained in corporates to examine our own behaviour because it is literally impossible to control the habits/reactions/anything of others within the terribly close environments we, today, work in. So we have had education from consultants (etc) who are not really teaching a Christ centered approach - simply because it was seriously needed. But, as Christians, there is a different dynamic that happens with the Holy Spirit living inside of us and the fact that we need to look outside of ourselves and to Christ. Yes, there is the need to be self aware to an extent, but there is this MASSIVE (indescribable) external force that is working on the inside of us. Not sure if I'm being super clear as I'm still wrestling with this, I think we need to watch our phycology textbooks carefully which point inward. True hope is found outside ourselves. A simple prayer that may take years to affect, because the tapestry of our souls is so intricate and the circumstances that always surround them, could be "Jesus, please change me". On habits, yes, be still and know that I am God - external focus...

Thanks

Thank you for this video. Great advice!

No doubt God led me to this video I have many bad habits .

Amen!! I love when she comes in the studio. Thank you!!

Thanks 🙏

Love, joy, peace….are fruits of the Spirit. Not gifts. We bear the fruits because of God’s Spirit in us. We operate in the gifts of healing, miracles, wisdom, words of knowledge, prophecy, tongues and interpretations of tongues because of the gifts of ministry we yield to. Gifts and fruits are not the same.

Yep, friends working on your car will do it. 😅

Malachi 3:6 in Other Translations 6 For I am the LORD, I change not; therefore ye sons of Jacob are not consumed. 6 "For I the LORD do not change; therefore you, O children of Jacob, are not consumed. 6 “I am the LORD, and I do not change. That is why you descendants of Jacob are not already destroyed.

John 10:27-28 My sheep HEAR MY VOICE, and I know them, and they follow me: [28] And I give unto them eternal life; and they shall never perish, neither shall any man pluck them out of my hand.

The truth of Jesus Christ is the answer. Please start reading your Bible and grow in faith by hearing the word of God

'Discipline of Pausing ' Uhmmm ....

Jesse, we need to cook

Is his questions weirdly defensive, almost offensive to anyone? 🤔
