I cried watching you speak whats in your heart. Thank you for reminding me that telling someone I trust about my addiction, and to be vulnerable, is okay. Sin grows best in the dark. But to speak it out and to flee, is the way.
Jesus knew you needed to post this today!! 2 months ago today, December 1st, I got free from the bondage of pornography. Almost a decade, the enemy had me bound in shame, guilt, and disgust that all tied into my pornography addiction. But I told my close youth pastor and haven’t looked back since! For 9 years I didn’t tell anyone because I was afraid that they would look at me differently. But that’s exactly what the enemy wants! He wants us to be a slave to sin. So please, if you’re reading this and you have the same or similar issue, please tell somebody. Yes it’s scary at first, I was terrified. But being set free from pornography was the best decision I could’ve made! So thank you Zach for posting this today :)
dude…i didn’t even mean to click on this video. i was just scrolling through your videos and then this just opened up. i’ve been struggling with lust for years and no matter how hard i try i can’t let it go. thank you so much for this. i may not be able to magically overcome lust today, but with time and God, i know i can do it. again, thank you. amen
Hebrews 4:15 says that Jesus was tempted in EVERY way and sympathizes with us because he experienced the same temptations. Never be ashamed to go to Jesus about anything.
You know this is what it’s all about, how we are all laborers together with Christ, this is the work we do, we help one another and love one another, confess to one another, and pray for one another. Thank you so much for such a powerful testimony that almost everyone on the plannet can relate to. God bless you man!
Thank you so much, you’ve been touching my heart this week with your posts. One problems I have when opening up to people about my struggle with lust is that they try to take advantage of it and it’s hard for me to run from temptation. I do need to memorize the scriptures! Thank you for guidance 😌
This is so heart felt and true. After many years believing I was not worthy of Jesus love, I came through it to the other side. And not because I was strong enough. But because He is. And it IS possible. We are loved beyond belief by the one who created us. When my prayer changed to asking God to show me how He saw me, and how He loved me everything changed. Thank you for putting your experience into words. It’s so valuable and I pray it is there at the right moment for each heart who needs to hear this.
Thank you so much for this video. This is something Ive struggled with since middle school and its a constant battle. I'll go a good amount of time without the thoughts of lust and then it'll come back. Its something I have to fight with all the time. I appreciate your vulnerability with your story, I know it will help many.
Im so grateful for you and your prayers, I cried a lot! This video wasnt something I searched for, but found me. Thank you for recording this and giving some scriptures at the end! This was very healing, and woke me up to the problems I have a hard time facing. You will be a spark to so many Christians healing journeys
Amen! Thank you for being vulnerable. Vulnerability because of Jesus alone always leads to bettering anyone who will listen. I remember God telling me that this problem I have will help ppl one day and all I could think was absolutely not I’m taking this to the grave. But you are so right about talking to someone who is God fearing about this because Gods vision for me instantly became so clear and doable. Thank you again for sharing, never stop being an instrument for God!
I found your RU-vid on tik tok and I clicked on this out of curiosity to hear what you had to say, and it touches my heart to hear and see a boy have this perspective and exemplify this type of discipline. A sort of immense worry and hurt in me found a bit of renewal in your faith and walk with the Lord. I wanted to let you know that the magnitude of you exhibiting and encouraging this surpasses just the people who are struggling with this sin. It is also a beautiful reminder that in a world where everything has been so incredibly sexualized and hook up culture is the norm, there are still people who are able to walk closely with God and have the willpower and want to do so. This was so healing to see
Thank you so much for sharing this. Lust and sexual immorality are truly a evil thing to be trapped in. I was trapped in a state of sexual immorality from a young age and it led me to believe the lies that the enemy told me and to give in to fornication, for years I struggled with lust, sexual immorality and pornography but with God’s help and bringing my secret out of the dark and into the light I broke free from it. I’ve never been happier and I know true freedom now. To God be the glory 🙌🏽🙌🏽✝️
Thank you for being open and gentle. It makes me think that I don't have to be a "perfect" Christian and God can still use me in the midst of struggle. God bless you
Amazing video, your testimony is refreshing considering that I have struggled with lust for a large part of my life. You are strong for sharing your experience. God bless you!
I really needed this for myself ♥️ Thanks for sharing your story. Have gone and still struggling with it 😭 but trusting JESUS for his restoration and redemption.
Can you please make a video on waiting and how to find people who are wanting to wait? I feel like it’s so hard to meet someone who genuinely wants to wait. Ty. 🙏🏼
I was exposed to porn at the age of 6... Ever since then it has been an on and off thing in my life, I'm 21 now, Ive been through addiction phases and then phases where I despise it, and then go right back at it again.. just when I think I'm free, I fall into the sin again.. I wanna tell my mom but I don't want her to feel like she's failed as a parent... It's not an addiction but it's a 2 or 3 times a month type problem:(
