I'm a biology teacher in a school. Yesterday, just as I was about to start the class, I got a ministration to preach Christ to them. After I did, nine out of 14 gave their lives to Jesus and I was glad plus one who I know was already genuinely born again. After that, I was surprised that they were all asking me questions about christian and worldly music. From the way they asked, I guess it has really been a concern to them. I took my time to explain to them(not far from what you've said) but I can't wait till Monday to show this video to the students.
Thank you so much Jaymikee for giving yourself to the Lord!

After I gave my life to Christ as a Tween, worldly songs was what I struggled with the most because I love music a lot. I also discovered that I felt drained of the little faith God has started helping me to build after listening to them. And of course, there was an array of lust that beclouded my eyes and thoughts. When I saw that I wasn't making headway by my power, I had to pray honestly: "Lord, block my ears from hearing and understanding the lyrics of these songs".
And the Miracle happened! Till now (almost in my thirties), I can hardly hear the lyrics of worldly songs no matter how long I stay listening to it. It's only when someone tells me what they're singing that I truly hear it. The Holy Spirit did the selective listening for me.

I've come to discover in our walk with the Holy Spirit that it's more about how far we're willing to walk with Him in consecration that He would help us get through. And for a Believer who knows that destinies of generations are upon his/her life, we should be more yielded. It is always to our benefit at the end of the day.

May the Lord help us to DIE DAILY to the flesh.
God bless you, JayMikee.

I love the healthy food and junk food analogy. Christian songs are healthy food; secular songs are junk food; worldly songs are not just junk food, but outright poison.
Thank you for touching this topic!
God bless you!!

Well said...I actually began growing my relationship with God when I dropped all of those songs and stopped listening to them. I also teach my teens in church to kill their appetite for those kind of music so they can connect to God

[samaleemyrrh]

Thank you sir. I think I will stick to Olori Ogun. Powerful song. 😁😁

It's funny how I have known this since i was a teen😊 before I start listening to a song i check for lyrics, whether secular or gospel, to ensure it will edify my soul and/or glorify God. Oh...i had a notebook for writing song lyrics then. Thanks Jay Mikee for this awesome video👌 more insights from God!

Wisdommmm!!!
The part where you related it with junks🤌🏾
God bless you JayMikee🙌🏾 you no go miss out on God, Egbon! More wine! More Spirit!

Well said bro. Essentially, live in the light as God is in the light then we have FELLOWSHIP with each other, the blood of Jesus Christ cleanses our sin 1John1:7. As we discern the Spirit, we shall never be tossed to and from by deception.

Years back I used to think it was difficult to stop listening to worldly music but i bet you that the holyspirit makes things easier or would i say having a relationship with God where all you desire is to keep knowing your father wont allow you thirst after these songs. I m a work in progress and grateful. Things we see are temporary but the other things we dont see are eternal. So I would follow the spirit songs though I dont see but it ministers to my soul

Never been better said. This question has remained unanswered for so long. Thank you Jaymikee for listening to God. This is a generational solution. Thank you!

[akinakinyemi]

Well said, I agree with you . "All wordly songs are secular but not all secular songs are wordly". Good one with the analogy of junks and healthy food too. 👍

Thank you so much sir for this timely message, I had to struggle with sin this week just because I viewed a person's status on WhatsApp that had a worldly music at the background, I couldn't help it, I viewed the status over and over again just to hear that song and I ended up downloading it, I know how far away I felt from God for the 3days I indulged in this particular music but God saved me yesterday morning and I felt sober and deleted it and this morning I'm seeing this message, I'll guard my heart and be at alert for any form the devil decides to take because he knows music is my weak point. Thank you so much sir😊😊.

Thank you so much for this I really appreciate it. You really really "FINISHED WORK". THANK GOD FOR THE GIFT AND SPIRIT OF WISDOM AND DISCERNMENT AND THE SYSTEM OF UTTERANCE UPON YOUR LIFE.

God has spoken to me though metal, rock, rap, R&B, country and classical music. If you are his child and looking for the word, only the beauty is absorbed. The Bible tells us to sing and play loudly for God's glory, and He uses the most unlikely vessels.

[okebukky]

My brother in Christ😁Gbayi🤛you have said it all. God bless you even more for this!

[PatienceOboh]

The Holy Spirit made me dislike worldly music, He did it Himself. Never knew it was wrong until the Holy Spirit made me uncomfortable listening to those music. God Bless you for sharing this.
The Holy Spirit is my best teacher, always on point🤗🙏🏼.

I will hence forth reference this perfectly articulated & explained video to anyone who asks about the question in discussion. Thank you a Joshua. May God continually Bless you! Love you & your ministry brother, you are a great inspiration!

[adelekeadedamola]

Wow 😳 well articulated! Music actually affects out minds and soul, it gets to is without permission... that's why sometimes we unconsciously find ourselves singing worldly songs without even having one on our phone....we really need to guard our hearts

[nhengirowland-douglas]

I do agree that music can get into your heart and spirit without permission and I have learned a lot now. I love listening to the radio & this means I have to tone it down. Thank you Sir 😊

[pastorsanmioyedeji]

My brother. This is just powerful
More grace sir
