@@diegoferrer454 Yeah you want to be in the world but not of the world. It’s actually easier than you think. Jesus said his burden is light and yoke easy. Only reason it seems hard is because you believe it’s hard.
I never thought that I could let go. I suffered 5 years, thinking the same exact thing, the trauma made it seem like what happened took place every single day. I’m glad that seeking God, seeking Jesus, seeking the Holy Spirit has been more help than any “friend”, any counselor, any therapist, any medication. This video was a God send. Thank you Heavenly Father, cover Alex and his family, in all they do. In Jesus mighty name, amen.
Yes, Emotional abuse is terrible ... I went through such terrible abuse that I almost died in 2016. THE LORD GOD.. brought me out of it ... .sometimes there are triggers that come , but I cast down that imagination. Keep praying, keep seeking the LORD. I will pray for you. 💕💕💕🍃⚘🍃
I've learned that when attacks keep coming means your Close to GOD and your doing what Honors GOD so keep on going in The Mighty Precious Name of JESUS on purpose ❤️
I know how hard it is to let go of certain things, I am a teen and I was a slave to porn and masturbation for 3 years but God found me. I have been sober for about 4-5 months, it is easy to get into but hard to let go but with God everything is possible. Keep pushing everyone even when it gets hard. God is there with us
Amen and amen. I was under the thrall of the same from the age of 7 to the age of 20. And in one night God did what I couldn't do in 9 years. I tried stopping when I was twelve and from then on it was a downward spiral of shame or pleasure, ignoring my guilt over my disgusting habits. But God.
Even before the end of the video when you admitted you don’t make videos like this often where you get vulnerable and give it your all, I could tell you were tapping into your true potential. You are truly a gifted teacher and storyteller. The content you all make is a blessing.
This just spoke to me dearly. I've been struggling to let go of watching porn for a year now - been sober for 3 months and I pray God will help me thru it. Thanks for the vid Alex, praying for you and your family. 🙏🏽
Amen brother, it is definitely hard to let go of things you loved or thought was the world to you. But when things hit the bottom, the only person there for you is God 🙏. And in light of Him, anything is worth giving up because of Him 🙏❤️✝️❤️🔥
This is for support. I usually try to donate $10 to two charities and a church twice a month and I wanted to donate in a way that would bring my heart more happiness. God bless u and your family! 👩🏻🤝👨🏾
i have honestly been going through a lot at school. I am now getting back my way but God is now leading the way . thank you for making this video Alex.
It always spins me out whenever the exact words I need to hear, are said In the latest video you release. Thank you for being an obedient servant for God. He is speaking through you into so many people's lives. This video really comes as an answer to prayer - the exact encouragement I need. I love God more than anything in the entire world and I've been feeling really down on myself when I became aware of the fact there are parts of my life that are keeping me from living my life fully for Him. More than anything I want to ditch all of them and just run straight after God, but... as you pointed out In this video, it's hard to let go. I feel like I've allowed this realisation guilt and shame me and keep me from going to God - that because it isn't easy for me to turn away from my bad habits and sinful ways God won't want me. But I know that's a lie I'm believing. And I know I can do all things in Christ who gives me strength and I don't have to do it on my own. I just need to repent and turn from my ways! I do it not in my own strength, all glory to God!!
Amen man!! God loves so so much more than anything ever!! Love Him and believe in Him and He will make you perfect in His sight!! THE LORD LOVES!! In Jesus name that we love and pray and give thanks to, Amen Almighty Heavenly Father God!! AMEN LORD JESUS!!❤😊❤😊❤
Alex, thank you for your transparency and vulnerability. The timing of this is spot on. I have struggled to let go of certain things in my life due to past experiences, and I know the LORD has been showing me I need to. Also, I completely relate with you about not giving your all…….I’ve been guilty of that myself. It’s scary, but Jesus was scared too and asked God to take his cup too, but He did it anyway. Jesus gave his all regardless of what ppl thought, knowing ppl would still reject him. I must follow his example too. Thank you for the reminder.
I thank God for using you and I thank you for being vulnerable to share your stories, experiences, and examples. You’ve definitely helped me 💪🏽 stay encouraged!
There's no need to apologize Alex man I know God is working through you and legit I felt him calling me to this video, I didn't want to watch it bc I didn't want to face my issues but I needed it. Thank you, your videos always show God's truth even when I may not want it. Remember to get some rest brother, that also gives glory to Him too. Love you man. " therefore every teacher of the law who has become a discipline in the kingdom of heaven is like the owner of a house who brings out of his storeroom new treasure as well as old" Matthew 14:52 God has used both your old past and is using your new future for your good and His glory. Take heart.
Thank you brother Alex, to you and your family. Your wisdom and teachings are so gentle yet stern. I see the hard work you and your wife put into this and raising your children. Praying for you both ❤
We forgive you because we too have fallen short of God’s glory in life. Thank you for this - God literally dropped this video in my season of letting Go and being reminded that he is here, and listening to me, and that he is ready to fix everything so that I can get what I have truly been seeking feels like resting my head on a cloud, after sleeping on the ground for a long period of time. God bless you, thank you for being a vessel 🙏🏾🤍
You are truly gifted at story telling Alex! Thank you for being obedient and daring to share your God-given talents publicly and in such a humble and authentic way. Glory to God for using you to uplift many.
Thank you both for your story and reflection. You are not only relatable but I enjoy watching your video because you are not only honest but you are fearless when it comes to God. Stay blessed my brother!
I pray God blesses you and that God protects you from evil and provides what you need for your family and to serve Him daily like what you are doing. I love the ministry you participate in with Jesus. Thank you for sharing the good news in such a good, true, positive, loving, gentle, kind, but still convicting way.
Oh goodness Alex. This was what the Lord needed me to hear. It was and still is hard to let go of my ex-husband. Adultery and a secret drug abuse problem has left my world upside down BUT Jesus has been so close to me in this journey. After biblical research on divorce, fasting in praying I am allowing myself to let go and open my heart to what and who God has instore for me. God's love is so deep and so wide no challenge or problem will ever be able to consume it. He is God all by Himself! You are forgiven Alex. Bless your heart
God Bless you man. You said "Full Send" talking about caffeine. Just do this man. Full Send, let the God given gift flow through you in your creativity and the content you put out.
please don’t stop being vulnerable. This was just , something else. beautiful is an understatement to describe you Alex. Love you and God Bless You Brother❤
Alex, thanks for being vulnerable. Using your giftings to the fullest allows for God’s kingdom to expand. God bless you and your family, you are an amazing blessing to the world.
I testify that the videos you've made have helped me so much along my journey with Christ, so thank you! and let this comment be a reminder that what you're doing is changing the world so never be disheartened or discouraged!
I’ve been falling off my path. I cant shake these thoughts in my head. Pls pray for the world, there are those in the world who are fed on those lies .
Alex, THANK YOU. Thank you for following Christ and showing us how to do it with all the pressure and heaviness of the cross you & Christ both hold. Thank you for being so resilient. I wish you didn’t have to. I wish it wasn’t so hard and taxing. However we know the pay off is not worthy to be compared and I just thank you for counting the cost & paying that price. Staying the course. Let that oil flow from being pressed. God bless you and your family mightily. May you have ease and confidence coupled with motivation to keep going. ❤️🔥
God chose you, Alex. He truly knew what He was doing when He tasked you with you with this mission. I love you, man. I love your work. I love how much you care. I love that you're so open about your struggles. Through you, God has greatly inspired me to keep reaching for Him.
Yoo man you don’t have to apologize your still making an effort to make the videos and your out to help people find god and help them out in their faith that’s amazing bro! We love you🙌
Amen!!!! I rarely comment on any videos because of fear. I want to thank you so much for being vulnerable to tell stories the way God has blessed you with 🙏🏻 I am a baby Christian and I have recently been working to grow my faith and relationship with Christ. I have been recently listening to Amen podcast about the genealogy of the Bible and both the podcast as well as your channel are truly a blessing!!! And I love Lokelani's amens 🙏🏻✊🏻💖 As an adult, I struggle to be vulnerable as well. I hope I can be able to share God's word with others who do not know him, but it is a struggle to be vulnerable. I realized that this fear of being vulnerable comes from the enemy and is trying to hold us back from sharing the good news with others. Thank you for being vulnerable and using the gift of story telling and relating it so well to the Bible, it's truly amazing!!!! ☺️ God bless you and your family and the new addition on his way 🥰 🙏🏻🙌🏻
Man, I needed to hear this. Got so many things in my mind I’m dealing with plus desperately looking for a job. Hearing Gods words thru brothers like this help get me thru. 🙏
We love you brother and you do Gods work, God didn’t give you a spirit of fear, you know that. I pray that you will be called great in heaven for your works.
You’re video blessed me. And thanks for your obedience. Letting go is hard and I am having to get of my relationship of almost 3 years go, because it was not good for me. I wanted what was not good for me. But I was finally able to say no. It wasn’t worth my destiny or my focus on God and what He has instructed me to do which is also minister the gospel to others and use my gifts to bless others and honor him. Thanks for the encouragement.
This video helped restore my confidence. Thank you for your vulnerability. I felt gods presence as I was watching this, I feel true rest. If you try so hard to save your life, you will lose it. Amen.
Amen Alex. Thank you. This helped me a lot and I pray that more people would come to this understanding. I love you, and God loves you infinitely more and I pray that the Heavenly Father would continue to bless you in all ways so you can become one with Christ and become the all in all that Lord Jesus Christ is man! I pray this all, in Jesus Holy and righteous and perfect and amazing name that we praise and give thanks to and Holy and perfect and precious and diving and amazing name that we love and pray, Amen Almighty Father God Amen!!✝️❤️👊🛐💜
I've been doing prn for like a lot of time now and I feel like its time to let go of it because it makes me into a person I dont like but with Father God there is a way and the Lord is the only way. So thanks for this video Alex God bless you and your family And God bless everyone who is reading this.
Thank you for being so relatable & honest. I know God is working through you because I needed this video exactly at this point in my life! All Glory to God 🔥🔥🔥
This will sound kinda strange but I'm in England deciding whether or not to join a university and leave my old life behind. I do admit I love what's going back home but nothing will ever change there I fear so it's become this world-on-my-shoulders decision over the last two weeks to stay here or move back home and continue studying there. This video was the top in my recommended after I got off a pretty heavy phone call with my dad about the whole situation. I can't say I'm very religious but I am more than most of my age and I can't help but feel this was meant to be seen. All I wanna say is thank you Alex for making this video, I hope you're family can get out of the tough times you're facing. Amen brother
I just realized brother that the reason God did this was to show you that the same way that your child cried out and cane to you, so should you do so for these, the children of God, and your children, through the teaching you would give to them. Love thy neighbor as thyself. And again, do unto others as you would have done unto you.
Hey Alex. I just say I appreciate everything you do. It’s always encouraging and sometimes very convicting watching your videos and I am very greatful for that. Love ya brother. Keep up the good work!
I really like the story telling especially as a writer. This story was captivating and will stick in the minds of those who hear it. You have a gift 🎁 Keep using it! Love the Amen Podcast family! God Bless! 🙏
Love you Alex and your beautiful wife and beautiful family! God bless you! Thank you for all that you do and answering the call on your life! Keep going! You are doing awesome ! You and your wife Lokelani and doing amazing! I love to listen to Amen Podcast. I’m praying for you all! ❤️❤️
This was good! Your transparency at end perfect and encourages me to repent of my laziness or fear and give God my all too! The right way. Amen indeed friend. I loved your old videos and this cobra one as well. Somethings are hard to let go...so we best do so NOW! 💯🙏🏽
Listening to this was insightful. When your vulnerable you allow people who need to hear it and give to that energy. Keep your strength into what is being called to you!
Thank you for being honest! Keep following Jesus and don’t listen to naysayers! God is using you to help people more than you know! Prayers for you, your family, and your ministry!! 🙏🏼🙏🏼🙏🏼
This video is so beautiful. Glory be to our Heavenly Father ! I’ve been battling with doubt and fear of my salvation and even at times doubting Gods existence and other thoughts that have been super overwhelming. It has been a very tough season spiritually for me but I’m always reminded of Gods grace and what Jesus did for me on the cross that allows me to refocus on him and not my circumstance. Thanks Alex for this wonderful video ❤️👊
Christian, If you live in the country, Just look outside and you will see the existence of GOD....LOOK at yourself, perfectly made. AI cannot create you! Go to a nature channel and look at all the different animals and birds......Not one HUMAN fingerprints are the same. OH YES GOD EXISTS.........HALLELUJAH! Read the WORD...🍃⚘🍃💕💕💕
God bless you! I enjoyed this, the way you tied symbolism, God’s love and your experience all together is awesome. You do have a gift, thank you for reminding me of what my faith is for
Amen, thank you JESUS for looking out for us, for being the rock that we can stand on through the storm. Thank you Holy Spirit for guiding us so meticulously we could never repay you and that’s why we give up ours lives for your will to be done in us. Thank you
