Great it is good to see your beautiful face for those of you who don’t know kamaria is like a friend that I met via social media that has really become a friend like what like I it’s not like a out of the blue thing because God is
Just so strategic but she has literally been a blessing to my life so why don’t you you go ahead and introduce yourself and tell the people who kamaria is and what you do hi guys so above all us I am a child
Of God okay now what I do I do a lot of things but mostly right now my focus is on giving the word of God to his children and sharing my experiences the things that God has called me out of the things that he has delivered me from to
Other people so I have a podcast I have a business I have multiple businesses but right now I’m honest with you okay I’m in a season of hearing the Lord and trusting the Lord okay so no titles I’m just I’m doing what he’s telling me to do right now in next season
So that’s that’s me I absolutely love that speaking of doing what he uh tell us to do as y’all know if y’all don’t know um the called out the called out brand um that God has blessed me with is founded on first Peter 2
And9 and um it says for you are a royal priesthood a chosen generation a holy nation um I don’t have it in front of me and I thought I was about to go off the top of my head but it just went blank his own special people to proclaim
The Praises of him who caus you out of Darkness Into His Marvelous Light there we go there we go it it came to me so while we are proclaiming his praises and while we are um just thanking him for bringing us out of Darkness Into His Marvelous Light y’all
Know we got the book called out fraternities and sororities how to get out of something you should have never been in which is one of the first books of the C out series and so I met kamaria um via Tik Tok I found her on Tik Tok
And I believe the first thing that I saw her talking about was like Starbucks and then after that I seen her talking about denouncing her sorority so you know with the whole called out of Darkness ‘s Marvelous Light before we even get into our overall topic of the
Day since I know that you also have re announced and announced the sory do you mind sharing a brief testimony regarding that sure um brief um or you it don’t it don’t gotta be like you know quick what however the Lord leads you okay we want
To know what it was how you got in what was it like being in it and then how did God bring you out okay so um I’m G try to I’m try to make it brief so I was a member of Sigma gamar sorority Incorporated I crossed in Spring of 17
And I came out of it in 2020 now I joined in undergrad as an undergraduate and um that was not my first time with the organization I was actually an affiliate from like I want to say freshman year of high school so I have always been not I wouldn’t say like
Into Greek life but I had been exposed to it not like being around a whole bunch of people but genuine women that I love and know like they were a part of the organization so that’s kind of how I got introduced to it I wanted to be a
Part of something that they were a part of so I went ahead and I joined an undergrad and after that um I began to go on a journey of following Jesus okay I thought when I first joined the organization that I follow Jesus but I was sadly mistaken because after I
Started to hear from him like actually hear from God he let me know that I was not supposed to be part of the organization so um that was about what we in 2024 May what’s that if I if I cross in Spring 17 and I came out in 2020 but that’s
Been a long time from the time I cross but um anyways not talking about that but 2020 is when I came out of it and the thing that was so crazy to me because I Not only was brought into the organization I myself had also brought in women
Into me going through the last of bring through the last group ofs my eyes were now open I began to think things was very weird I be to like ask other people like y I don’t think this is kind of all you know that we doing things like this
Y’all don’t think that this is this is not okay and so I started to ask those questions and God really began to I couldn’t explain what I was feeling but I knew I felt like I no longer belonged and not only did I feel like I didn’t belong everything just started to
Go bad like my relationship with other women that was in the organization like everything just literally I felt like I no longer fit I was the president of the National panholic Council on campus if you don’t know what that is my goodness yeah that’s like the council where you
Come and meet and you discuss the business of the organizations together you make decisions for the black community on campus you host events you plan events that was me I was the president I was also the bassilus which is the president of that chapter and um
You know what I’m okay with sharing this okay I really am I talk to God about this today Not only was I in leadership of that way I was also and y’all I’m not proud of this but we getting ready to talk about it okay we to talk about
Right have not talked about this nowhere else I was um DEA pledges I don’t know if you know what that is but um we well people who have been in s and fraternities know what Dina pledges is well who have had an underground process for sure yes and I’m saying that openly
Because people love to say that people who come out of them they’re just like the ones that would just they got into it for the wrong reasons or they just want to just make it seem like they have this come to Jesus moment like no okay I was in an
Organization I knew what I was doing once I you know grew in the organization and so when it became evidence to me that things were not the way they needed to be and it was not up got that is when I decided to come out of it so I wanted
To share that because it’s not like I was just a regular member I was someone who was committed in this thing okay so I just wanted to make sure I shared that and then um how I knew that I needed to come out of it like I said I started to
Feel uncomfortable and then I came across the video from Tiffany Montgomery she was talking about entrepreneurship and like out of nowhere she just started talking about Greek sororities and fraternities and when I tell you I had felt so convicted because I had literally just had a dream about the sororities and
Fraternities and it was my the chapter that I was a part of at that time it was something really bad and it just made me feel terrible guys it made me feel terrible I’m not going to go into detail of the dream but I had a dream and her
Word what she was saying about the Greek sorties and fraternities it convicted me and it kind of confirmed what I had been feeling the whole time and so at that point I ended up reaching out to her and she told me like girl you need to throw
Out all of your paraphernalia and you need to write a letter to the organization and let them know that you no longer want to be a member and at that time I didn’t know that I no longer wanted to be a member I just know I
Needed more clarity on what I was saying so I appreciate her I just really do because she didn’t speak to the questions that I was asking she basically said like you need to go ahead and come up out of there and so I didn’t do what she told me to do
Immediately but God began to speak to me he began to allow things to manifest that just show that it just wasn’t something that I needed to be a part of and So eventually I went back to the messages that she sent me and I did exactly what she said I began to throw
Away everything that I had concerning the organization threw it all out um and at the time I had a boyfriend y’all who was also a part of the organization which is crazy because he helped me throw my stuff out but he was still a
Part of his and Not only was he a part of his he um when I told him what God was showing me he was like you didn’t know that so I just want to I just want to make that known there’s people who are a part of these organizations and
They know that it is not of God and they join with knowing that it wasn’t of God because they’ve studied these things okay so the deities that they’re connected to there’s people who do know there’s people who are not deceived and they still make the decision to do it so
While while some people think that you know it doesn’t exist some people are fully aware okay because he was like you didn’t know what was up and I’m like no I didn’t know what was up so I ended up throwing away all my paraphernalia after that I waited about
A year or so before I actually wrote the letter um God was really just dealing with me and I I’m actually grateful that I waited it gave me time to speak to the people and let them know like hey I’m no longer going to be a part of this
Organization this is why and it it allowed me to see you know what happened when I decided to distance myself and so after that I went ahead and wrote the letter sent it to National they took a long time to get back to me I think I
Wrote the letter in about April of 2022 they got back to me in August of 2022 finally sending me a letter saying that my renouncement was approved and so from that point on yeah it took a while from that point on I came out of the
Organization also I forgot to say that I was a legacy okay so my mother was a part of the organization by the grace of God she has denounced and renounced as well I thank God after I came out of it my mother came out of it as well
And um she was honestly she was picking up on some of this stuff before she was like that’s weird but again we joined it because of women that we were close to and we love them and so we just joined it because you know it was people that
We love was a part of it but that is my journey you know about it okay I’m not somebody that was just a member I was committed to it because the type of person that I am if I’m going stick to something I’mma commit to something
That’s what I’m going to be and so I just wanted to let that be made know because people like to talk about people who come out of it they like to make it seem like we’re the people that just you know didn’t really care wanted clout not
At all okay so just wanted to say that and that’s that’s pretty much it my goodness okay you said a lot of things I want to expound on okay so um if you missed it and you just joined she used to be a member of Sigma gamaro so
Already Incorporated she is out of it by the grace of God so you said that you were the dean of pleases when you were bringing women on so sometimes um how can I explain this I went through some very Grievous experiences during um the underground process and it wasn’t necessarily the
Dina pleases doing everything like she had the oldheads come in and torture us that was that was how that happened and so uh a lot of the times people say that when you are in the high position one of the people that are actually bringing people in sometimes it’s you know like
Something that comes over you to be mean to these girls or to quote unquote break them down to build them up it’s like you have to tap into something outside of yourself in order to perform those duties and it’s like you know you kind of like have no control of it because it
Has to get done you know for whatever these organizations feel like it got to be done for um did you have that kind of experience were you the kind of DEA pledges who had to like tap into a mean side or felt some type of like
Um I guess Spirit of anger or something to make you do something to the girls that was unethical okay so um what putting too much highlight on the chapter specifically um the way that it worked was my role was honestly quiet so really I was myself throughout the whole thing
Like I really love I really love the ladies um it wasn’t much for me to say I wasn’t the person that really made the decisions and everything where set was going on I didn’t I didn’t make the decisions I was more so there um kind of like that mothering it sounds crazy but
Kind of like the mothering role overseeing making sure things went the way that they needed to go but for the most part I wasn’t really speaking and I will say there was a point in time where things became too much for me and I be
To talk about it like and I and I stopped talking completely and I started telling God like I just I’m ready for this to be over because at that point I I no longer I felt that what was taking place it didn’t need to happen
Because who I am kamaria yes it was very it was grieving my spirit who I am kamaria if you talk to any of the young ladies they’ll tell you I was the same when they were going through their process as I am right now and so without
The organization I love people I love people I want them to be the best them and so that’s that’s how I was now there’s some things that didn’t need to take place happen absolutely because that’s what happens when there’s an underground process but um for me in
Particular I would say I really stayed true to myself and that probably caused some problems with some of the people that was the oldheads and stuff like that because like I said I me personally I felt like some things were said to me during my process that was not
Necessary so that was done that was not necessary so for me I stay true to who I am so hopefully that answers your question but I want to say like the spirit of anger none of that stuff came out of me during that time I was really me just me under
Deception yeah that makes a lot of sense CA um our um dean of pledges during our time she was mean to me I I just know she ain’t like me but she was also the mothering figure we actually had to call her mama duck cuz you know like the
Underground symbol for delta is the duck like outside of like the elephant for like the you know the formal way that everybody else know it and so we had to call her like mama duck so she was very like mothering but she ain’t like me but
Um that was that okay so another thing that you mentioned my goodness you said you had a boyfriend who was in the organization who knew that it was not of God and was surprised that she was just finding out my goodness was he a Christian did he profess to be a
Believer of Jesus Christ in a way and it may sound crazy he was not someone that was saved just let during that time I wasn’t saved I wasn’t saved okay so I can’t fult him on that because honestly I would say where he was I was
In deception now has he given his life to Christ I don’t know I have no clue but during that time he believed in Jesus just like I believed in Jesus but he didn’t know Jesus okay he he was the type of person that did like studying in different types of religions and things
Like that he was that type of person and so um yeah so what made him what made him suggest or have the idea that it’s not of God if he wasn’t even following God like I don’t know question it wasn’t he didn’t say that it was not of God he
Knew that there was deities connected to it oh God okay there there we go there’s the explanation he knew he knew that it was deeper than than what people thought it was because he had done research into it my goodness that’s what I mean so he believed in
God I don’t know which one but um only one go I do not want to talk about him like that but he’s a great person he’s a great person but the whole point in that is just letting you know that there was people who do they do know that there’s
Deities attached to it they do know that it is not organizations that’s founded on CHR Christian principles there’s people that know that okay my goodness I think that’s what I was getting to trying to understand because yeah and we all know there’s only one true and living God and all
These other gods Lori case G canot even compare to the god that we serve okay so um since you have come out and you came out because you saw um something Prophet Tiffany said shouts out to prophetes Tiffany because she’s amazing um can you tell me what it has been like since you
Denounced because you know renouncing is actually renouncing in in prayer and fasting and with God you know renouncing everything that you said the O pledges and all of those things however publicly denouncing is actually speaking against it on why it is wrong and I have seen
You do that over on the Tik Tock so how has it been since you have actually denounced um since I’ve denounced I felt more free because I’m not going to lie to you um I Shar with y’all that I was deem the pledges I share with y’all that
I went through a process myself and so when I came to the realization of what I did I’m going try not to cry it’s okay if you do girl when I came to the realization of what I did I felt thank you I felt so bad um it was
Almost like a heaviness on me and when I denounced a little bit of it lifted okay it was some things that I still had to walk through with Christ myself some Deliverance that needed to take place but as far as after denouncing I felt like a little weight was lifted off my
Shoulders I felt that um I I felt more Bolder to walk in my truth and I felt more equipped I felt more ready to profess my love for Jesus Christ because I didn’t have anything connected to me that was not of him now as far as relationships with people I don’t talk
To many other people from the organization and this is one thing um when you connected to God he speaks to you and he lets you know who’s speaking of you and so um I was just I knew that people did not reach out to me directly
After I had the outc because I didn’t tell everybody I told the people that they were call my ships I told the people that I crossed with and I told the people that I was the closest to and so um at that time it would be my D and
ADP and then my ships so those are the people that I told and those are people I felt like I needed to tell because those were the people that I was close with while I was in an organization and those was the only people and so I let
Them know and after that you know it was just Liberty okay I don’t expect anybody to speak to me I know that people may have said things and feel things about me by way of the Holy Ghost letting me know but it just it made my decision
More concrete it made it more it made it set in more it it made me feel good about me obeying God when he told me to come out of it because I the reality of it was once I came out of it the people who said they
Were my sister a lot of them have never talked to me since then and honestly being honest they wer talking to me before then so I would just say I felt more free I felt um more bold and I felt more ready to walk in the calling
Walking who God has called me to be so yeah now the people on Tik I I knew that I had to get back in my closet with with God and let him work on me because so many people said so many crazy things okay I was able to see
Demonic spirits manifest through uh social media these were grown men calling me out of my name calling me to be word because I said that I I share my testimony on coming out and so that really it was all a learning process for me okay it really let me know how
Demonic like it was just by the way people were responding from my personal testimony not me telling people what to do me telling people what I did and so yeah after I had to let God deal with me concerning that because I really wanted to respond but I did not respond because
Then that would make me know better than them okay their response was all that needed to be put on the social media people were able to see you know how strong of a hold the organizations have on people without me saying anything else so Liberty Liberty and freedom that’s what I experienced after
Denouncing we love that we love Liberty and freedom my goodness um you kind of like explained how you felt about that so I kind of I feel your heart are you anyway let’s move on so um we are here to talk about anxiety and depression okay because my goodness I can honestly
Truly say that those emotions which are actually Spirits are running rampant right now and it has a hold on not even just you know regular people but it also has a hold on the body of Christ in many aspects and so um since that is the topic of the day I would
Like to know do you have personal experience with either anxiety or depression or both um I have experienced with both and I like just going back and thinking about my behaviors my mannerisms the way that I dealt with particular seasons of my life I was able to identify that it’s
Something that I was actually dealing with for longer than I knew um and not only did I deal with it I dealt with anxiety depression but I also saw it take place among people in my family and so that was um indicator to me that that may be
Something that I was dealing with because I was able to see it outside of myself manifest it in somebody that I love and know their character and so I was able to then identify like hey Kamari is this way and so because she’s feeling tired because whatever she
Whenever she tried to get up to do what it is that she know that she really wants to do and needs to do she can’t do it there’s something stopping Kamari there something blocking her from doing what she needs to do and so I would say
Um kind of the the point where I really realized that I was experiencing Depression was in college and it might have been a year after I had crossed so that stuff began to manifest shortly after that and um it got to the point where it was unmanageable so I went and went to
Counseling on campus and thank God for um my campus because it was free you know when you’re a college student sometimes you you opt out of stuff because you can’t afford it but that was free and so I went and I spoke to a woman I believe she was a woman of God
Because I was telling her what I was experiencing and she was like you know of course I can’t diagnose you because that’s not the type of doctor that I am and she said I don’t even want to tell you what I think you could have but I’m
Going to give you this pamphlet and I want you to read over it and I want you to self- evaluate these things and see if you notice any patterns and she said before you even read it I want to let you know that from my time of talking
With you I know that you are strong and I know that what you’re dealing with it’s not you so she was like you can throw that out of your mind it’s not you she said not call it for what it is she said I’m going to allow you to identify
It yourself here’s the information you take it and you do what you can with it I went and looked up the pamplet it got to talking about symptoms of depression and anxiety and I was just almost like I could have just checked everything off the list checked every
Box checked every box and I was like oh okay your girl your girl is depressed okay that’s what I am and so I have a lot of medical professionals in my life so I will begin to talk to them about it and you know they were you know
Sometimes when people deal with things their s they can’t answer the right way for you and so I feel because they were medical professionals some of them didn’t answer the right way but one Auntie she let me know like she dealt with anxiet in depression and it was to
The point where she needed medication she said if I don’t take my medication then I’m not going to be right she said I’m not going to be able to stop crying and I’m like dang I’ve been crying and I’m not even a crier so okay you helping
Me with this but I heard her say I need my medicine and in my mind I’m like that could never be me because even before I would never take any medicine for pain no cramps no nothing I’ve always been that way I never want to take any
Medicine and so I figured out that was the thing and so that’s when my relationship with God began to grow because I began to lean on him for him to give me just the understanding of what I was dealing with and how to come out of it my goodness so
Um how did you come out of that okay so it was a journey um and I want to say this I actually went to a actual psychiatrist and I was diagnosed with major depressive disorder and I think it was actually something for me that I needed to hear so that it
Can click if that makes sense and that I would be willing to get up out of my mess and so um at that point I was like okay God I’m all in me and you so when it comes to me coming out of depression it was only the love of God who
God Amen it was only the love of God that pulled me out of what I was deing depression is a spirit of heaviness yeah depressed means to be pressed down and that’s exactly what I felt for a good amount of my life and you go to the doctor they give
You medication but the medication don’t work okay it treats your symptoms it got side effects it has side effects but it only treats the symptoms it treats what you’re feeling it is not heal you if you don’t take the medicine it comes back and so
I had to get in a place with God where it was me and him me and him it’s like I was waking up praising I was before I was going to sleep praising I was going to brush my teeth praising like I didn’t even have language of the Bible but I was speaking
To God okay so when it comes to me saying like how did I come out of depression it was nothing a doctor could prescribe me it was no conversations with a therapist what you help I recommend you go on a therapy if that’s what you
Need to do therapy is not meant to fix you it’s not meant to it’s not meant to do any of that it’s meant to allow somebody who who sees you from the outside looking in they have no bias they can tell you what you’re saying right back
To you in a way that’s plain and simple for you to understand and so therapy I recommend it I recommend it but the the greatest therapy the the treatment for depression the spirit of heaviness is praising God is getting so is place with God is building relationship with
God that’s what it that’s that’s how I came out of it I came out of it by being intentional about spending time with God it wasn’t just me reading my Bible like I said before I even had language to the Bible it it was just me calling out to
God me telling him what I wanted him to be for me and that that gave me hope it helped me keep pushing through and eventually it led to the Holy Ghost leading me to words that was healing to my soul so that’s how I came up out of it um
Building intimacy with God knowing that he’s the person that can heal me every time I praised every time I got in my Bible I felt better okay it didn’t feel like how the medicine made me feel it was freeing it was pure and now I can say that it’s lasting my goodness
Congratulations thank you congratulations that is a beautiful testimony the thing that you spoke about it was all spiritual it didn’t have it didn’t have nothing to do with like Earthly tactics or human tactics like yeah we go to therapy and they give us language to put to the things that we can’t really
Describe however like you know they aren’t you know really navigating how our Spirits respond you know to certain things and so you went about it a spiritual way and to God be the glory praise is also how I got free from depression um so let me tell y’all
Quickly because I actually have a full video on this on my channel and it’s called how to get free from depression and um I talk about a time where I was absolutely low down didn’t really know what was happening to me and I had the depression that I was dealing with was
Coming in waves and I was operating in high functioning depression meaning that I was able to be around people and Kiki and laugh and all of these things and then come home and cry or like when I was um I was staying in Phoenix with my
Auntie um for a little bit and while I was at her house we’ just be joyful cooking food having a good time all of that and then when she would leave for work I would just be at the door breaking down crying like a little kid
Don’t want to see his mama leave him at daycare or something and I was like no don’t leave me because like I needed people there in order for me to stay functioning in in that state that I was in and so when I um moved um by myself I
Was just like this was a lot and so um one day I just couldn’t stop crying like some days I and I done been through I done been through one two three three therapists I I have been through three therapists in a span of three years or
Two years because my goodness like one of them that I was going to I used to pay her $150 an hour just sit up in there and cry and I’m just like I’m like girl you GNA let me sit here and cry uhuh ask me some questions I’m SP
Money but you know you see me out here cutting you this check every time I come up in this mug do not let me sit here and cry but it felt like that therapy session all I could like that was the only time I was able to release whatever
I was feeling like from the day or whatever and that was my first time experiencing um therapy or whatever like the first session we had she was asking me questions we was getting to the bottom of you know just some things that I was dealing with as far as like people
And pleasing and things that I had dealt with in my past stuff like that and then for like the next two sessions I was just I would just come in there and she’ be like how are you and I would just break down and she would just let me sit there
Cry and I just couldn’t spend money on that no more and then I had try better help and no and no shades of better help but I can’t do the virtual thing because they tell you that you can meet with your therapist whenever but them folks be only well in my experience the
Availability was only like once a month to talk you know via face to face with somebody on um through Zoom or her however whatever platform they use for us to connect and then other than that it was like sending voice notes back and forth to each other I’m not with that
And so then I tried another one and this third one tried to prescribe me medicine and I’m like girl I’m not taking No meds like you go ahead and hang that up because I don’t even do medicine when I don’t feel good so you you best believe she talking about some
Uh you need mood enhancers I was just like absolutely not because mood enhancers have side effects you think you about to sit here and be cured from your depression and you drinking some you you taking pills that’s GNA make you be suicidal like or you know what I’m saying make you gain
Some weight or something make you have a eating disorder like those was the kind of side effects to the mood enhancers okay so I was just like yeah no and so um and not saying and and not saying I’m not going to ever go back to therapy
Because I’m probably will I just need to find the actual right person cuz going through three of them in two years absolutely not that’s crazy but um so at this time I wasn’t seeing anybody and what happened was whenever I would have these like crying spells I would
Just call my friends to pray for me and I had friends who would just be ready on spot to just pray and so one day I was in a crying spell and they wasn’t answering the phone I’m like oh my God I’m just gonna keep crying and I’m trying to pray but
All I could do is cry and I’m just like I just want to be over this like I just want to stop crying I was so sad and it’s crazy because I was low key dealing with like heartbreak and disappointment and all of these things that I wasn’t
Addressing because like I would be in high functioning depression meaning I was kiking and laughing and outside and joyful and being around the folks and I was only dealing with myself when I was by myself and the Times by myself I would be sad and so um I ended up
Calling I ended up hitting up the first lady of the church that I was going to at that time and she um d Ed me to call the the Apostle the pastor of the church and so um I got on the phone um with him and we had like an hour counseling
Session and he told me at the end of that he prayed for me and at the end of that he was like make a praise playlist and he said all praise songs High Praise he said do not put any slow worship music on there because you gonna keep
Crying he was like make a high praise playist and listen to that pra playlist whenever you feel like that and I was just like okay and so I made the High Praise playlist and y’all that playlist I’m to this day every time I play it I’m dancing around my living room and high
Praises because all I can do is be joyful and actually praise God like praise is really the remedy to depression okay and honestly that High Praise playlist I started dance into it like every Sunday and I started this come praise God With Me series and and that’s what grew my my social media
Platforms like from Instagram to Tik Tok to YouTube on out like praising God like that come pray that playes playlist is what grew my Instagram and all of my following because I was just praising God literally from that playlist that I made that he instructed me to PR play
And so what I want to say about that is this is this is the remedy in the formula that is in the word of God so there is a scripture in Isaiah 61 and3 and it says I will give them the Garment of Praise for the spirit of heaviness
And what I learned is that right there is an even exchange when exchange happens two things can’t stay in the realm together right so you either giving something or you’re taking something so if I say I’m going to exchange my necklace for yours that means you have to take yours off and I
Have to take mine off and we exchange it I can’t keep keep mine and you can’t keep yours because there’s an exchange so when you are praising God that Spirit of heaviness which is depression has to go it has to disappear because there is an even exchange that happens he give
You the Garment of Praise for the spirit of heaviness that was worn on you as a garment and that garment is no longer there so they can’t like coincide with each other and another thing that he showed me was that you know God inhab it said the Bible says he inhabit is the
Praises of his people y’all if if you’re praising God and His presence just falls upon you in that praise not only are you getting him but the Bible also says in his presence is fullness of joy and that’s where you get that joy that can’t nobody take away from you okay so I
Don’t know if y’all picking up what I’m putting down but the formula is in the word of God he tell you how to get it okay he tell you how to get free okay so that’s that’s depression and I know we gonna probably dig into that you know as
The time goes on but let’s talk about anxiety what was your experience with anxiety um it would be well one It Was Fear okay spirit of fear that’s what anxiety the root of anxiety is the spirit of fear fear of something okay and so how it manifested in me was it
Might sound crazy but this might help somebody today how it manifested in me was extreme excessive sweating okay if it was cold yes cold sweating like sweating to the point where I was embarrassed about sweating and this is this is how I knew that this is what I
Was dealing with um because the moment I began to walk with God like I no longer dealt with that anymore like this is something that I went to the doctor over okay they they talked about probably giving me Botox and stuff to slow down my sweat gland it was that bad yes so
Wait wait wait the anxiety that you were experiencing was making you sweat sweat I have never heard that before my goodness okay and you probably never heard it before but I know it’s somebody that deals with it like why am I always sweating like why it’s cold outside and
I’m cold why am I still sweating I’m in class taking a test why why is my armpits like why am I sweating all the way down my shirt like that’s the type of stuff I dealt with and it caused me to be embarrassed about it or whatever
But but um that’s one way that it manifested also in hives I used to break out in hives every time I was upset nervous or anytime I had any strong emotion I would literally break out in hives all over my body okay and it would
Be bad and my mom would even be able to identify she’s like you must be upset afraid or you scared because you starting to break out in Hots my goodness yes these were physical manifestations and um the next thing is just fear like I would be just afraid of
Things okay afraid to do stuff and it’s like I went through this season of just doing stuff that I was afraid of I went skydiving okay I was tired of yes yes yes okay I went skydiving because the spirit of fear can be so crippling and I
Got to the point I’m like I’m about to kick fear but and anxiety like I’m that’s what I’m about to do I’m about to go do the stuff I’m most afraid of and um doing that let me know that I was dealing with anxiety so it was my
Thoughts couldn’t be clear I was overly sweating and that’s going to make you feel just uncomfortable about yourself I was dealing with hives they’re itchy they they swell they make your skin look weird things of that nature so that’s how I knew I had anxiety it was more so
In my thoughts and like physical man manifestations in my body and when I went to the doctor they were saying it’s just it’s inflammation it’s this it’s that it’s this and that and when they kept saying inflammation that’s what I went to the Bible because the Bible talks about inflammation like
Inflammation is disease and um so I figured out I just needed to come out of agreement with the spirit of anxiety and the spirit of uh fear and I needed to ask God to releve me from all inflammation and um yeah that’s how my thing was with anxiety it um it crippled
Me to the point where sometimes I wouldn’t want to go certain places I was a homebody because I know I was going to be sweating I got to being around people or I’m around a particular group of people and I’m breaking out a HS and I
Don’t know why you know that type of thing so I know I ain’t the only person that experienced it I’ve talked to people I’ve seen it on social media and I told them like you know you G have to come out of GP with that spirit of fear
CU that’s anxiety okay it has physical manifestations for some people for some people just in your mind your thoughts you you literally afraid you can be crippled you can’t move you can’t do just it’s just that I’ve seen a manif manifest in family members were like their legs would literally shake their
Body would literally shake and they could not control it so yeah that’s that’s how it um manifested in me and and to get over that I didn’t identify that it was anxiety after God gave me Revelation of it cuz one day I literally was like H I don’t swe like I used to
Anymore you stop sweating I I haven’t broke out in hives in a long time H why is that and it had just came after I was praying and fasting about um anxiety and depression and so I knew that it broke once I no longer saw those physical manifestations in my body
Things that’s spiritual cannot well things that’s spiritual end up manifesting physically and for me my anxiety wasn’t only crippling in my mind it had physical manifestation my goodness wow y’all um we have to unpack how you came out of it we have to unpack how you came
Out of it but I do want to say that I haven’t heard of that but I realized that anxiety manifests in different kind of ways for a lot of people for me anxiety manifest and scrolling on social media people are saying that they experienced that on Instagram with the
Hives and the sweating wow oh I see somebody um on the chat here in our stream actually said wow I used to sweat and that caused yellow stains in my shirts I used to be bullied and embarrassed about it my goodness I’m sorry yes it’s embarrassing it it can
Make you not even want to go outside honey my goodness oh so a few people asked me to drop my praise playlist um so I dropped it in the chat in our stream that we are here on so if you are on YouTube or Facebook I have it in the
Chat so you can download it from there and I also went and dropped it in the chat on the comments on Instagram as well so for me my anxiety was manifested as scrolling like whenever I was feeling anxious I would just get on Instagram and just scroll and like just
Or I’m not I’m not proud of this because I feel like I do have an addiction to chips but like at my highest anxious points I will take some some potato chips like they have to be like kettle baked like they have to be like hard and
I would just get the crunching or I would chew ice or I would chew ice because I don’t know what it was it’s just like the feeling of the crunch would like soothe me like I would just be chewing chips and like the rhythm of the crunch would like
Take my brain to other places and then being um scrolling social media when I’m anxious puts me in other people’s World outside of my own when I was younger I used to do it by I used to escape by reading books I used to read all the
Time especially when I felt away because we went through a lot growing up my goodness but sometimes like I would just try to escape and so now that you know God has been freeing me from the addiction to social media that I had um sometimes my sometimes when I experience
Anxiety it makes me kind of like paralyzed like unable to like move or think straight like kind of give me a little bit of ADHD like I’m running water keeping lights on doing something on my computer then running to go full clothes on the bed like and it just make
Me a little antsy and I’m just like I always have to ask myself like what is this that I’m feeling like CU I don’t like it cuz sometimes it comes out of nowhere if I could just be completely honest it comes out of nowhere I don’t
Even know that I’m fearful I don’t even know that I’m scared like but the cause of it for me a lot of the time is the transitions that I’m on because I be transitioning a lot y’all okay okay talk about it talk about in in
In the card out book no shame plug card out for attorneys and sororities make sure you get this how to get out of something you should have never been in there’s a chapter in here called how to navigate the transition it was a transition coming up out of these secret
Societies and throughout that transition so much anxiety happened to me because it was almost like I was fearful of what people would say what people would think how people would receive me I ain’t going to hold you even doing called out live I could just be completely honest
When I started this last month um first of first of all I started it like a year ago but I put a pause on it but I brought it back and we started it last month and every single day that I do this I have to pray and ask God and I
Say Lord I can’t do it so you got to do it like this can be only by your spirit only by your spirit your might your power because I ain’t got it in me I don’t want to be on here talking about the things that you you know what I’m
Saying that I believe you calling me to talk about like but I know you’re calling me to do it you know what I’m saying like it’s it’s a little overwhelming sometimes when you know that God has given you a message that everybody may not receive and that
Causes anxiety a little bit you know what I’m saying and it’s not like too far-fetched to not deal with anxiety as as a believer of Jesus Christ that’s why the Bible tells us 365 times fear not like that’s in there that many times because he know that we’re going to fear
The Bible tells us so many times be strong be courageous have I not commanded you to be strong and courageous he says the Lord your God is with you wherever you go not only that he says don’t be anxious for anything but instead pray about everything okay
That’s in Philippians 4 and six and we’re gonna get into that because I do want to ask kamaria you know what the what did the Bible say to her for her anxiety Deliverance so um you mentioned you actually mentioned that you asked God about this when you realize you were no longer
Sweating and when you went on this whole journey of doing things you were scared of to to try to defeat this thing first of all I commend you for that because ain’t nobody out here just trying to conquer fears you know what I’m saying but you did your thing and I really I
Admire you for that and um man thank you for sharing that because I got some stuff I need to go conquer help us Lord but um so when you said that you had to talk with God when you realized the symptoms weren’t happening anymore what did he
Show you what did he reveal to you and what was that process like um this question flows just really good because I was getting ready to say I want to point out that my the anxiety that I experienced it came from my life like I literally was fearing of what was
Next so I want to talk about that because some people get anxiety mixed with other Spirits like Spirit of distraction Spirit of delay okay those type of things if you can’t focus on something it doesn’t necessarily mean that you have a fear but it does mean that something in the
Spiritual realm is trying to com for your focus it’s a spirit of distraction and not necessarily a spirit of fear or a spirit of anxiet and distraction could be just as crippling as anxiety and so that’s something that he helped me identify that one fast that I went on because I
Was Allowing God to purge me so he was removing things that I no longer needed to be indulging in he was removing things that I did have fear of he was just removing all the things and so when I asked him what happened he let me know
There was no more fear of what was next for me and so I’m someone who experienced is like a lot of trauma okay um even and I identified that when I went to figure out the things that I need to do to get over my fear like I went to a shooting
Range a gun range to learn how to properly use a a firearm because I had issues with guns so it’s like I needed to to break the fear and I just I just started doing all the things and I did the physical things but God did the
Spiritual things as I decided to go and pray and fast and so the more you remove that doesn’t belong like the distractions if you feel like you go to scroll on social media maybe maybe some people may have to cut it out completely and then you will see it may not be
Anxiety it just may mean that you got something else going on in your head and some Spirit the spirit of distraction knows that if I can get her distracted by her going and get on social media then I can get her to not actually deal with the thing that I know she was
Thinking about going to pray and fast to God about and so really taught me how to decipher okay what is a fear what is something that that’s making me what am I what am I anticipating am I anticipating something or do I have a fear something or is
There something that I know I need to get done and this is something that God is telling me to do and there’s other influences in my ear that’s not in alignment with that and it doesn’t want it to get completed okay this ain’t no anxiety this some distractions that we
Got to rule out so that’s that’s really that’s what happened I asked him why is this stuff disappearing and he let me know because I then was building my faith so there was no more fear of what my life held because I completely trusted in God and that’s one of the
Scriptures I wrote down Proverbs 3 veres 5-6 um to trust in the Lord with all your heart acknowledge Him in all your ways and he shall direct your path um because that’s what I had to do and so when I got in that season of doing that
That that’s when I was able to decipher I was able to identify your fear and immediately say I’m Not Afraid like I’m not afraid I was able to identify oh this is trying to distract me let me go ahead and delete this app for a couple
Of days let me let me get this on up about of here or delay I started to pay attention to my dreams okay if I started having dreams of the past dreams of stuff that I done came over I’m like okay these ain’t no anxious thoughts this is something going on in the
Spiritual Realm that’s trying to cause delay so that’s what he showed me when I asked him about it when it come down to it what I really had to do was just trust God I had to trust in him in all of my heart and everything that I do I
Have to tell God like I trust you with this I trust you with that and that is what broke anxiety completely and it also allowed me to be able to identify the difference between anxiety a distraction and delay okay so you spoke about the differences
But how did you come out of the anxiety spiritually literally trusting in God like me I had to literally say it like it was a whole year where I just recited that scripture and I implemented it in my day I think I’ve talked about this on my social media before I had to
Literally say God I trust you I trust you with this car I trust you while I’m on this street I trust you what’s next for me I trust you like that’s what I had to do I had to speak that out of my mouth and not only did I have to do that
Once I identified um that something was going on I began to come out agreement with any and everything that I could possibly be dealing with I was just calling all types of stuff out okay that’s what I did I just came out of agreement with it and in my mind if I
Come out of agreement with it I’m gonna act like God has already delivered me from it and so that’s that’s what it is once God let me know like that those manifestations you was experiencing was anxiety so coming out of it was the having the knowledge of it and doing
What I know to do with the knowledge of something call it out come out of agreement with it and replace the word of God on it and that was me trusting in Him all the way with everything if you have trust in God there’s no room for
Fear if you have trust in God there’s no need to anticipate what’s next is there’s no need so that’s how I came out of it learning how to truly trust him with all of my heart I love that so much I love that so much I believe you are freeing the
People helping us out tremendously okay so I remember one time I was actually um texting you about something that I was dealing with and you explained to me the enemy’s tactics behind um him coming at the Believers of Jesus Christ with the spirit of anxiety can
You decode that like what is the the enemy’s word tactic against us when it comes to those spirits that he sends after the children of God who are either creative or called to do something and why do you think he does that well if the enemy can get in your
Mind if he can get in your mind then he has you okay y heard if he can get in your mind then he has you because you’re supposed to love God with your whole heart your whole mind all of your spirit everything apart of your being so if the
Enemy can get you in your mind then he has you and so when it comes to Christian creatives the body of Christ overall we were created to create whether you feel that you’re creative or not he got is Creator so he created us to create so if the enemy can come in
And he can knock you off by way of distracting you by way of causing you anxiety by way of causing you to have fear he can then forfeit what God has coming to you not forfeit it he can delay it okay he can’t forfeit what God
Has for you but he can cause a delay and so right now God is doing a thing in the body of Christ he’s really changing us we’re we’re all in a season of transformation it’s it’s that time so he’s changing us over and the enemy he he doesn’t want that okay he doesn’t
Want us to get to he doesn’t want our mind to truly be fixed and our eyes to be focused on Jesus so anything anything that he can throw our away to knock us off in our minds he has the upper hand at that point because we give it to him if we
Don’t allow our minds to stay fixed on Jesus and so I think that that is his his tactic is to if he knows that he can’t come at your purpose he can’t come for your destiny but he can delay you a little bit from getting to it he can
Make you feel like it’s not possible he’s going to do that and it’s going to manifest through your mind what the thoughts that you’re thinking about yourself the thoughts that you’re thinking about what God has called you to do the thoughts about the people that
You have around you if he can if he can change that he got you for that particular season and so that’s that’s that’s his War tactic he he’s coming for your mind he’s coming for your creativity because it’s your Innovation it’s the creativity God placed on the
Inside of you that allows you to think out of situations because let’s just be honest if you need some money no money’s going to come out of the sky God is going to give you an idea he’s going to give you people that you need to go and
Talk to but if the enemy can take your mind and arrest it with the spirit of fear worry doubt all things that are sin because if you have those then that mean you are lacking faith if he can do that then he can block you and stop you from
Getting to your next and so that’s his tactic y’all it starts in the mind because you can literally think your way into your next because once it’s a thought you begin to speak it once you begin to speak it it happen so that’s what he’s doing that’s he trying to do
He’s trying to comfort our mind and our creativity my goodness that’s so good thank you thank you for helping us and that’s why we can’t come into agreement with that stuff like I even when I feel like I’m a little bit anxious I immediately he says be anxious for
Nothing okay like you really got to go to the word of God so speaking of the word of God what are some things that you can share with us share with us about what the word of God says concerning anxiety and depression um I would say this like you
Said one of the most repeated phrases is to be Not Afraid like Be not Afraid Be not Afraid and when it comes to the spirit of fear we know that God has not given us the spirit of fear the spirit that he placed on the inside of us is
Power love and a sound mind so the moment you find that you’re not operating in love the moment you find that your mind is scattered and it’s all over the place the moment you find that you feel weak and you don’t have power then you know that there’s some
There’s something that’s there’s some misalignment there and so that is one of the scriptures that I really focus on people be focusing on that scripture for things like you know trying to create some content or get on a live that scripture is for you to operate your
Might move in love Yeah able to move in love that’s a marking of you being someone that’s in the body of Christ you follow Jesus you have to operate in love so you having those things the presence of the other things cannot stay and and so that’s what I
Really have to say about it God tells you what not to do but he also tells you what he’s giving you okay he tells you what he’s given to you and before that um that scripture is in Timothy I forget where it’s at but before that Paul the
Apostle he was telling Timothy to F to the flame the gift that was placed on the inside of him when he had llid hands on him and so fan into a flame that means you already hot right the power is already on you if you f something into a
Flame you’re making it bigger so he’s saying like use what God placed on the inside of you so that you can go and not have no fear you can go and do the stuff that you’re supposed to do and so that’s that’s literally something that literally helped me thinking about that
When I find myself getting off track when I find myself trying to get an anxious start I be like no God placed things on the inside of me and I begin to tell God can you allow the fire of God to to just be here okay burn up
Anything that doesn’t belong but also impart in me the power that you given me when you gave me the spirit of God and so that’s really what I focused on Philippians 4:9 and in Timothy when he when God clearly says the type of spirit that he gave us so I focus in on
That I lean in on that and I make sure I just tell myself do don’t be afraid Don’t Be Afraid like what does it mean to be courageous I literally studying that like what does it mean to have courage like what am I supposed how do I get
Courage those type of things so I listen to what he tells us to not do and then focus in and lean in on what he’s telling us to do thank you thank you for sharing that um oh one more thing one more thing go ahead intimacy with the Lord is so important
And it’s honestly to me an indicator of whenever things are not in alignment for me I go back and say like okay I need to spend more time in the presence of God yeah when I was in seasons of dealing with anxiety and depression I had to
Think of God in a different way Psalm 23 was something that really gave me rest there’s one particular um translation it may be New Living Translation I can’t remember which one but it says like Jesus the Lord is my friend my best friend it says that when
Talking about Psalm 23 it says that like when it says the Lord is my shepherd I shall not want it says the Lord is my best friend I shall not want for anything and so whenever I need rest from those things I think about like God
I you’re my father but right now I need you to be a friend I need you to be a friend to me give me rest give make me feel like I have a friend in you and that is what helps bring me out of things going back into that place of
Intimacy and looking for Jesus to be what I need if I need a friend I got a friend in Jesus if I need somebody to you know tell me get me together as a father I got a father if I need somebody to give me power to do something I have
The spirit of God dwelling on the inside of me that can help me execute what it is that I need to execute so that’s a major one intimacy amen that’s crazy I um was typing in intimacy with God scriptures today because that’s literally the season I am in like getting to know God
Like literally in intimacy okay somebody taught me that before like for God to really know you he has to know you from the inside because when the Bible talks about intimacy it talks about like in the form of like intercourse so God has to know know you from the inside out
Like when the Bible says Adam knew his wife Eve and then she conceived and like when Mary was like she knew no man that means she had never had sex before it was never an intimate thing that has happened to her before but the Holy Spirit became intimate with her and
That’s how she conceived and so God wants to be intimate with intimate with us because he desired to plant seeds in us that will grow and be fruitful he want us to be the branches that bear much fruit fruit and we can only bear that fruit in the intimacy with him and
So um somebody had taught me before intim mey meaning God into me see like look inside of me search my heart get the things out of me that defile me get the things out of me that are not like you anything in my heart that may be you
Know um not broken for the things that break your heart you know like things that I’m okay with that you’re not okay with like fix all of that like that’s how you begin to when you get intimacy with God you begin to have the kind of
Character that he has like the fruit of the spirit is like evident in you because his spirit is dwelling in you and you’re you know listening and growing in him so um really quickly I want to share um one scripture for um anxiety and then one scripture for
Depression that really helps me so Anxiety scripture is um or against it is um Philippians 4 and she kind of already gave this one but I’m going to give the verses that she didn’t give right before it Philippians 4:6-7 and it sayso not be anxious about anything this NIV version
Do not be anxious about anything but in every situation by prayer and petition with Thanksgiving present your request to God and then verse seven says and the peace of God which transcends all understanding will guard your hearts and Minds in Christ Jesus Okay so so obviously like there’s
Peace lacking somewhere when when you’re when you’re facing anxiety and your brain is on anxious okay like the no matter what circumstance you may be in the peace of God will transcend all understanding if you decide that I will not worry about this thing but instead
I’m going to pray about it and what is prayer talking to God let him know how you feel let him know how something is making you feel let him know something that you may be dealing with that you don’t necessarily know the outcome and
You like Lord I I I want to worry about this thing but I know you told me not to worry so here I am giving it to you real quick bonus the Bible tells us to cast our cares upon Him for he cares for us okay so do that that’s I thinking
So for depression we already gave a breakdown of um Isaiah 61 and3 however I also want to throw the one in there that first got me this was the first scripture that ever made me cry like the first scripture that ever um man when this was given to me
When I was actually rededicating my life to the Lord I was like I think 18 years old and I was going to a new church at that time um my mom was in a shelter by herself and we didn’t go with her this time because we was getting put out a
Lot my goodness and then um I was staying with my auntie and we was trying out a new church and the the pastor um she she gave this scripture and when she did I just broke down crying and she was like you know she asked L to like
Stand up and say what was wrong and I just poured out everything that was wrong and she made me come to the Altar and she laid my head on her lap and she sang to me after reading me this scripture and it like every time I read
It it it brings me to tears but it’s Matthew 28 and 11 and it’s no I’m sorry it’s Matthew 11:28 Matthew 11 1128 and I’m going to read verse 29 as well but it says come to me all ye who all you who labor and
Are heavy laden and I will give you rest take my yoke upon you and learn from me for I am gentle and lonely in heart and you will find rest for your souls I think I want to read verse 32 he says for my yoke is easy and my burden is
Light yes and you know what my goodness have you ever looked up what a Yol looks like yes he’s saying like that’s so beautiful I looked up a Yol too like so you saying like we right here like we neck and neck but you’re gonna take it from me and
It’s gonna feel like a feather and yes yes it’s like so beautiful that with Psalm 23 they compliment each other they really do and one thing one thing that really got me is Jesus knew that we would get heavy sometimes God knew when he gave the prophet Isaiah the word about the spirit
Of heaviness like he he knows we go through life and we have things that we can’t necessarily articulate to other people he knows that we think about things that we necessarily don’t want to think about he knows that we struggle in areas that pain us or that you know make us want to
Cry or that make us feel low and down and he gave us a solution Jesus is a solution Giver he not some he not somebody’s some some mystical fantasy you know character that we just believe in and just to believe in him no he is a solutionist he is a Problem
Solver and if you have a problem of heaviness he literally tells you you can come and bring that to me and then he said you can exchange remember that even exchange we talked about earlier you can exchange your burdens for mine so good because my yoke is easy and
My burden is light like that’s what he tells you and y’all we can trust him at his word because the Bible tells us that he is not man that he should lie and that his none of his words fall to the ground they go out and do
Everything that they were sent out to do that he would perform it like he even holds his word above his name like my goodness we can take this to the bank if you if you if you feeling heavy laden and burdened Jesus want to give you
Rest if you don’t know Jesus In This Moment ask him to come into your heart ask him ask him to reveal himself to you literally just say Jesus reveal yourself to me and I promise you he will he gonna do it if you got a sincere
Heart and you really want to get to know you really want to get to know him is because he placed that desire in you he said I have you have not chose me but I chose you that’s what he told us in John 15 so if you feeling that literally ask
Him okay my last question and anybody who has questions for kamaria because y’all know our next segment is Q&A from our co-host the audience members if y’all have questions for kamaria go ahead and put those in the chat now because we are going to actually get
Into those questions for her but my last question for you kamaria if there is somebody out there who right now is struggling heavily with anxiety and depression whether they know the Lord or not what would be your advice to them what can you tell them to give them some encouragement right
Now um I was say one that you’re not alone like Jesus himself before he had to fulfill his assignment he cried out and he asked for God to literally take it away from me like I don’t want this like I don’t even want to do this like it’s so heavy but
You know what let your will be done and so how I came to Jesus was at the point where I came to the end of myself okay and I mean that like I was I’m say it I was to the point where I was ready
To end my life okay and I know the difference from ideation and actually doing it I was I was on the way and I was honestly hearing voices from the enemy telling me to do it for some time and so I was getting ready to do that and I asked Jesus for an
Encounter I asked him to come see me if you’re you’re real come see about me and let me know that you’re real because I no longer want to live and so if you are dealing with something that’s crippling you even outside of anxiety and depression ask Jesus to make himself
Known to you sometimes all it takes is an encounter that one encounter I had I have not been the same ever since one encounter that changed my life and so I want to say this too for people who feel like I’m I feel like I’m at the
End of myself I I don’t want to sound heartless but I want to tell you that’s great because that’s what it takes to follow Christ when I came to the end of myself when I didn’t want to be myself anymore that was the perfect time for me
To accept Jesus that was a perfect exchange so a lot of people in the body of Christ especially if you’re prophetic and you have a a heavy gift on your life you think about not wanting to live anymore because things just become heavy and I just just want to tell you because
God gave me this Revelation you’re supposed to feel like that for some of you because you have to die to self in order to truly follow Christ so what was happening to me needed to happen because I completely gave my life to Christ it wasn’t halfway I gave it to him at that
Point because I was at the end of myself so I was just tell you to ask for an encounter you’re not alone even Jesus wept even Jesus wanted to pull out on his assignment but he said nevertheless God your will be done so if you don’t
Even have words to say say God I don’t know what I want for my life but let your will be done let be done in my life in my situation let it be done okay and I also want to tell you this all right another side note if you somebody that’s not eating
Healthy you’re not taking care of your temple you’re not taking care of your body do not blame your circumstance on God okay because he tells us that we’re supposed to take care of our bodies okay that means you need to be mindful in what you’re putting in it physically and
Spiritually so if you have some bad eating habits you you you addicted to Sugar because I was I was addicted to sugar if you’re addicted to Sugar you you you got to keep up with the fried foods you might have to come out of that because what
You eat is directly connected to your mind my goodness connected to your mind the word always says like out of your belly shall flow rivers of Living Water you think some Rivers gonna flow from that thing if you ain’t taking care of it your gut is like your second brain
So I just want to encourage you to watch what you eat be mindful of what you eat don’t see your body as just the body see it as the Temple of the Holy Ghost that’s exactly what it is and so do your part do your due diligence to take care
Of you being mindful of what you’re eating eat healthy things that way it’s not messing with your mind okay anxiety and depression can absolutely be linked to the girl it directly impacts your your brain function so I want to say that too thank you for adding that because I
Meant to ask you about what our diet has to do with our mood yeah your diet has to do everything with your mood okay your diet spiritually your di physically spiritually if you’re not on fire for God you’re not in his presence you’re not spending time with him as you should
Your body your whole body’s not going to function your mind’s not going to function right you’re not going to be able to complete your task the way that you need to because there going to create a misalignment it’s the same thing as because the word of God is it’s
Food it’s bread okay so that’s what you should be feeding your spirit with the word of God and then when it comes to food when it comes to to food God gave us food he created food all right not the man-made stuff not the processed
Stuff he put herbs he put fruits he put vegetables he put some of the animals around here too but it’s like he put these things on the earth in order for you to use it to fuel your body okay so if you’re someone who is taking in a lot
Of processed foods you’re taking in a lot of sugars you have a lot of you eat foods that have a lot of dyes things of that nature that it tears at the neurons in your brain not to speak scientifically but basically us your brain should be rejuvenating it cells okay your brain
Should be rejuvenating it cells every day and if it’s not it’s because of what you’re putting in your body so you can literally put food in your body to make sure you get good brain growth or you can put food that’s bad for your body to
Stumble it okay um I have people who have suffered with dementia in my family Alzheimer’s things of that nature and I know for a fact it came from their diet okay their mind their memory left because they were not feeding their their mind with food that’s good for them so leafy green
Antioxidants any plants fruits vegetables Whole Foods is good for you okay my goodness thank you for sharing that with us you’re I’m so serious thank you for sharing that with us because we needed that get us right on together because sometimes we be thinking we out here down in the dumps
And it’s just what we ate seriously we s here crying because we don’t ate a whole thing of ice cream yeah my goodness my goodness okay so do our audience our audience is our special co-host do we have some questions in the chat for our lovely special guest
Kamaria um so someone asked this question it says I struggle with anxiety depression trauma and insomnia I’m on meds and I know I shouldn’t go cold turkey does that mean I have no faith in him no I don’t I don’t think that means that you have no faith in him I don’t
Think anybody can answer that unless they know your lifestyle but then again nobody can tell you what your faith is like in God so I I wouldn’t say that um because I wouldn’t be able to identify that but I will say that um you could start to change your diet and and pray
That he gives you specific foods to eat for me he gave me specific things that I needed to take out of my diet which was sugar fried foods and dairy okay so he gave me specific things because not only was it messing with my brain it was
Messing with my gut your gut is your second brain and so I would say it does not mean you don’t have any faith in him I just think it means that you need to build some more faith just have just the faith that you won’t have to worry about
No medications but then do your due diligence to um eat whole Food I love that um our next question and someone asked um I guess for what we were talking about a little earlier about denouncing um the sorties we were a part of she said wow is it common for people to experience anxiety and depression after Crossing I think so because now that I
Have spiritual like God has given me spiritual abilities to see things I can see the spirit of anxiety and depression because it was something that I was familiar with so I can see it and identify it and I do see it very heavily amongst the community of um Greeks and
Not only that because I told y I witnessed it when people were going through that process anxiety and depression sometimes is at an all-time high for the people while they’re going through their process okay so absolutely I think it is common and I won’t say for
All people I would say for those that God has called out because you know everybody everybody everybody few are called many are called few are chosen for those for those that are chosen by God you’re it won’t mix it won’t mix it won’t mix you’re going to come to a
Point where things are going to start to just fall out of alignment with you because you’re in something that you’re not supposed to be in so those that God has chosen or you gonna experience something because you’re not supposed to be in it so I do
Think it’s common for people but I will say more so those who are chosen my goodness and yes those who are chosen I ain’t going to hold y’all I used to go to set every night and set is where they go to like pledge you and do all these
Crazy things but I used to because this just came in my head look up the definition look up the origin of set I’m not GNA tell you what it is but look up the origin of set guys it’s not good okay so I used to go to set every
Night and I would be sh in my boots with fear like I used to go praying every night like Lord please please please let them leave me alone and the the the nights that I would pray the most is when they would mess with me the
Most like and it was it was a very you know traumatizing thing for me to be scared of people who what what are men to God like you know what I’m saying like that kind of fear that they place in you to just comply and do all of those things
And be there every single night at all types of hours of the night it’s just outrageous but I was definitely super anxious very anxious extremely okay um I don’t see any more questions in the chat I don’t see any more questions in the chat oh and I do want to say that um
I started dealing with depression transitioning out of Delta before that I wasn’t dealing with that I was Happ go lucky porsa Carter but I literally started dealing with that once I broke once I began to break free breaking those covenants and everything they didn’t want to let me go without a
Fight okay and the Lord showed me how they was gonna try to fight fight me in my dreams that’s another story for another day but how he was showing how he was showing you the people that’s talking about you behind your back the same way he was showing me the things
That Delta Delta individuals were planning against me or things that they were saying or curses that they were trying to provoke in my life like and he was showing it to me through my dream so it a if God before me who can be against me ain’t no such thing as y’all doing
Something to me I promise you like and that’s why I don’t even I I don’t know God maybe has protected me from negative comments or what but I don’t even see them and if I do see something that’s a little slightly a little off quick uh Delete and block because I don’t
Tolerate it I don’t got time because as I said before take it up with him because you wanna argue and I can’t argue with you you m and I can’t argue with you okay so no more questions in the chat y’all know what time it is it’s Bible trivia time
Y’all give it up for kamaria give it up for kamaria bar not the drinking of the water feel you had to take a sip so we on Bible trivia my favorite game tonight we are actually um going talking about women tonight we are actually doing a Bible trivia on women
Okay so um anything that you don’t know in Bible trivia just pass it to the audience and give them a chance to win something copy copy copy so um in the Bible there was a man named Ahab who was his wife um Jezebel yeah so these probably gonna be
Easy because the women honly I don’t honestly I don’t know a lot of the women I just so happen to be studying about jezebelle a couple weeks I yeah I don’t know a lot of the women I just was studying about it though I’m pretty sure you know this one
I’m pretty sure you know this one um this one this deceived one of the strongest men in the Bible you said the what she deceived one of the strongest men in the Bible the the LI see I knew you do that one come on okay you got best two out of
Two right now okay so this one okay let’s see don’t ask me no hard St okay so this woman right here was a judge in Israel who who the men would not go out to fight without her um I know exactly who she is and I
Can’t think of her name right now oh my goodness I know she went before the she she she she was behind them or before them anyways I know de Deborah yes it’s Deborah look you know some you know some let me find out let me find out
Okay um the next one Ruth had a sister-in-law that she was rolling with before she went with Naomi and the girl left who was that girl that left um we got Ruth and me y might have to help me with this one she passing it to the audience y’all who
Who was the sister they start with I can’t tell you because I feel like if you tell me that I can figure it out who was the sister-in-law that was with Ruth and she left she was she she thought she was down the ride at first
And Naomi was like look I ain’t gonna have no more kids for you and she was like all right I’m out yeah what is her name y’all help me because I I can’t remember I know I know said I can’t even think of her name so y’all don’t know
Either in the chat my goodness I don’t somebody help me her name is orpa okay I was not going to say that so yeah I don’t even remember her name and it’s crazy because typically um somebody started typing a oh yeah somebody knew on um Instagram but yeah I
Um I typically struggle with remembering the people out of the stories I be focused it’s crazy but yeah yeah girl so she her name was basically uh Oprah but with the uh the art and the P switched okay understand that shout out to Shamar she had it okay I got a Bonus
Question for you I got a Bonus question for you or do you want one more woman question I don’t know whichever okay so um then you probably you probably won’t guess this one what was so when Rachel was given to Jacob she was given a servant who had
Her children for her before she had her own what was that servant’s name I knew that one was gonna be hard okay her name was bah what is it her name was b b like b i b i l a l i mean a h yeah something like
That I don’t know how to spell it yeah I don’t remember her I don’t know how to spell it okay this one this one is real easy this woman right here is real easy I’m pretty sure you know it so this is this woman right here is a woman of
Wisdom who had a husband her husband disrespected David and then her husband died before David could get to him but because she was wise she soothed David with her tongue and later became his wife who is she you wish that would be no I was just looking at his wives it’s
So crazy I was just looking at the people wives and they had a bunch of them he did dang but they the Bible attributes her and they call her nabal’s wife or the Widow of nabal you start with a yes you know it is it Anna I don’t know it’s
Something with a Abigail Abigail yeah see okay I almost said something CL it’s Abigail okay so the last question is a bonus question you just said that that was the last question no that was the last woman okay that was the last woman okay so this is the bonus question this don’t
Have nothing to do with women and it’s not going to be a book chapter in verse one I ain’t goingon to do you like that but this question question is one of The Parables so in the parable of the SE what were the four places that he scattered the seed um amongst weed
Right yeah weed weed and okay go ahead concrete concrete do that don’t do that c my brain I’m I’m getting the picture of what it’s I’m getting the what it’s saying in each place but not what the place say okay tell me what they said in each
Place let’s do it okay tell me what he said each place okay so some of them it’s about we’re talking about the of see I don’t I don’t know how to explain it but I go deeper into it so we’re talking about the word okay we’re talking about
When the word is placed into people and if the if the devil is distracting them however they are in that place it may be plucked up uprooted and then you know it don’t it don’t resonate so I think one of them it talks about like it falls on
Their ears and they hear it but it’s not able to register they can’t retain it that’s the one that fell among the path because he said that the birds which is Satan comes and eat it to eat it yes yes um the one that I was talking about the
Weed is something about like it gets plucked up I believe so the weed is actually I I think it’s a different translation but it’s the thorns okay yeah so so it’s the so the the four places that I know from the translation that I have is some fell amongst the
Path which is the regular Road some fell amongst the rocks and then some fell amongst the thorns and then the last one fell amongst good soil okay yeah the good soil was going to be the next one that I knew because that’s yes yes toana scattered was
Amongst the path the birds came up in ate it the the rocks it had no roots to grow the uh the Thorns it got choked out and then we had good soil which is me Lord please let me be good soil I always I always pray to be a good soil
Like Lord let your word be good soil okay in my heart well you did good you did good y’all she knew the answer she was just explaining it from her Revelation okay that the Lord has given her okay she know the answer you did good on Bible
Trivia okay come on 30 60 100 F come on toana she already know what’s up come on good soil with a 30 600 full return on it yeah yeah well to not toana I’m sorry because now I’m talking about toana I’m thinking about her now kamaria thank you so much for joining us
