My journey of salvation, heartbreak, backsliding in my faith, and why I felt such an urgency to share this message NOW. Instagram: @johnnanichelle / johnnaniche. . Email me: heyjohnnanichelle@gmail.com
Johnna, your testimony is soooooo beautiful. I was literally getting chills when you were talking about how you and the girl you used to hate both reached out to each other, reconciled and then started to grow closer to God together. Like what?! Only God can do that!!! So beautiful and amazing. I love this so much.
@@JohnnaNichelleWilks hello sister in Christ Johnna yes I have had my fair share of back slideing sister but when I decided to give my life to god it was so impowering amen sister in Christ your brother in Christ Paul he loves us ✝️✝️✝️✝️🙏
Hi everyone. My name is Daniel and currently I struggle with intrusive thoughts. Its like the devli just wants me to believe what's he tells me when its not true. These thoughts are mostly about how the devil tries to convince me that I might be gay and bisexual etc. BUT I KNOW AND GOD HAS TOLD ME I AM NOT . Every time I see a male I start thing of such but I try to pray and recite verses from the bible sometimes it doesn't go it does rarely. I faced this issue before and had defeated it and it was by being open about it and I hope it works again this time. Please pray for me I am only 13 and I don't want this to ruin my life . I want to be a clean child of God and I don't want the thoughts taking away my peace and throwing into worry, please give me any advice you have and god bless. (Amazing video by the way).
Hey Daniel, i just noticed no one commented. How are you doing? I'm so proud of you, you carry so much wisdom and conviction. I know God is proud of you too. I'll be 19 later this year, i had a very deep struggle with porn and masturbation...and bc of the things i was exposing myself to i sometimes got the feeling and thoughts that i was attracted to the same sex which i thought was okay until i gave my life to christ. It built this strong fear, i became very afraid of those desires. I started talking to God about them and telling him the kind of life I want (which was in accordance with his word) i started speaking his word over my life, honestly i felt like it didn't work bc i kept going back to those sins but i realized that i became more broken and convicted each time i went back, i noticed my hunger and passion for God increased too. I spoke the word over me to the point were whenever i get those thoughts and desires my brain does it automatically and it reminds me of who I am. Galatians 5:24 says "those who belong to Christ Jesus have crucified the sinful nature with all it's passions and desires" you belong to Christ Jesus therefore your sinful nature with all it's passions and it's desires have been crucified. You're a new creation. Those thoughts are not yours. Talk to God about the desires ! He understands and ask him to help you love the things he loves and hate the things he hates. Keep fighting brother, the Lord is your strength. Hebrews 11:35-38 says "So do not throw away your confidence; it'll be richly rewarded. You need to persevere so that when you have done the will of God, you will receive what he promised. For in just a very little while He who is coming will come and will not delay. But my righteous one will live by faith. And if he shrinks back, I will not be pleased with him. But we are not of those who shrink back and are destroyed but of those who believe and are saved." Don't shrink back beloved, it is well ! Freedom might be a one time event but staying free is a continual intentional process, meaning we have to fight everyday. Stay safe, much love from a brethren🌺💞
You are not alone! I’m 18 now but when I was age 3 I was molested by a cousin which was a girl ( I’m also a girl ) this made me believe I was lesbian with so many years. I could not understand how being gay can be a sin because I just was so attracted to girls..I didn’t understand why God would let this happen but it’s so “ sinful “ in the Bible. Eventually when I gave my life to God it went all away it really was just incredibly hard to understand how but I truly believe once you are filled with the love of God and just focused on him those desires go away!! Just keep trying you are loved by Jesus he loves u soooo much ❤
I’m still watching but I had to comment now. Our testimony’s are very similar. Months after I got baptized, I ended up meeting my long term boyfriend. We also lived together. He was cheating on me. I finally walked away from it. I was so heartbroken but the Lord met me there. He’s still meeting me!
Wow sis, praise God for leading you away from that situation and continuing to meet you where you're at. It truly was in my darkest moment where I realized how near God was. He is so faithful!
Thank you for sharing your testimony! It's amazing what God does for us when we don't deserve it. God is good! I can relate to your testimony and I myself have backslidden and am going through so much spiritual warfare and trying to get close to God. Your testimony is very encouraging and you are 100% right. God bless you and your husband and your doggie🙏
I had the HOLY GHOST and didn't understand the warfare and was hard-headed. Satan tricked.me badly and I went back into world after getting rebaptize in 2016. Tricked. I want my body and soul bac k. I lost everything. I also grew up in church and the attacks gave me a nervous breakdown The sins I did were horrible and I wonder why God allows me not to be Saved or totally converted. I am not right and there is no way I would be looking and feeling like this on purpose. Satan tricked me out of my inheritance. I Had it all. I want out of fornication. I loved men I was. NOT A WHORE. .I got with the demons. And foolish.
@@TriciaRP You can be saved. I have learned that the more and more you pray and read the bible the more and more closer you get to God and try to change the things you can but God knows that you need help and He understands you and your heart. I felt exactly like you as well. God loves you and He does not wish that we parish. Some people have dramatic overnight changes and some others it takes time its called sanctification. No Christian is perfect and we have ALL fallen short of the glory of God. If you need to talk about this more you can talk to me. I think what would help you tremendously is this very Biblically sound man here on RU-vid his name is Mike Winger look him up and he explained the bible and answers people hard questions I trust him 100% You are NOT alone❤ God can change you if you surrender your heart. It is NEVER too late! As long as your heart is beating and you are breathing there is still time. I hope you will look up Mike Winger on youtube because he has really transformed my thinking about God and I am getting closer to the Lord everytime I read my bible and God is changing me slowly that is what sanctification is. You would not feel like this and be convicted if God wasn't already working in you. ❤🙏
Wonderful testimony sister in Christ. Yes, Jesus is the spirit of testimony so if you are going through anything understand this is his grace ,so that when he pulls you out of that pain you can look back and see what he has done and the battles he has fought with you against the world. Yes he loves you and he will meet you wherever you are in life. Don't think he won't if you call on him he will listen
Jesus didn't come to condemn, but to fulfill the law. In turn, Jesus will be the one to condemn you. He is love and He is eternal punishment. I like to err on the side of condemnation in my walk. Jesus spoke of hell more than heaven. I'm not saying you can get there by works, but He tells us of what you can't do to get there.
@@JohnnaNichelleWilks I messed my life and soul up and ran back into sins I wasn't like this and HEARD GOD SAY LET THIS WORLD GO. it is not that I want to live for the world. Satan tricked me and I got into horrible sins. I was beautiful and healthy vibrant energetic and THIS SHOULDN'T HAVE happen to me. I feel my mind reprobate and not even fighting. Please pray
