What your scroll says about your soul.
Jesus said,
“For whatever is in your heart determines what you say.”
— Matthew 12:34 (NLT)
If Jesus were sitting across from us today, He might add:
“…and whatever fills your algorithm reveals what’s ruling your heart.”
The algorithm doesn’t lie.
It reflects the habits you’ve built, the desires you feed, and the things you secretly chase when no one is watching.
If your feed is built on lust, comparison, outrage, distraction, or endless entertainment, it’s not just showing what you click.
It’s showing what you crave.
Your scroll is a mirror.
And sometimes what it reflects is killing you slowly.
Not dramatically.
Not instantly.
But quietly, one swipe at a time.
What You Feed Will Lead You
Most men think they can scroll in the dark and walk in the light.
But that’s not how it works.
Your mind goes where your eyes dwell.
Your heart goes where your mind lingers.
Your life goes where your heart bends.
Your algorithm is just telling the truth.
It’s revealing who’s shaping you more, Christ or compromise.
Conquer What’s Killing You
If your feed is pulling you into temptation, anxiety, envy, or distraction, you’re letting your phone shape the man you’re becoming.
And Jesus didn’t call you to be shaped by the scroll.
He called you to be shaped by the Spirit.
That’s the heart behind You Might Die Today:
Conquer what’s killing you. Rise to what matters.
You can’t rise if you’re drowning in noise.
You can’t lead if you’re lost in comparison.
You can’t grow if your habits are training your heart to crave the wrong things.
You’re a man of God.
Act like it.
Guard like it.
Scroll like it.
Live like it.
A Challenge for Men This Week
1. Open your phone and look at your “For You” page or suggested feed.
Be honest, what does it reveal about you?
2. Remove anything that is feeding death, distraction, lust, or comparison.
Right now. Don’t negotiate with poison.
3. Replace it with something that strengthens you.
Scripture. Worship. Sermons. Biblical manhood. Purpose.
4. Pray:
“Jesus, reshape my desires. Kill in me what’s killing me.”
