You can learn from the past and take responsibility for your actions, starting by supporting your family and not buying $500 toys instead of supporting them and paying your debts.

Probably because it is your fault. You violated your vows and abandoned your wife and refuse to provide for her needs.
She owes me 9K by the court of law and has not paid anything. I am divorced and besides does not want my help.
She was the one that initiated the divorce. correct?
No he has said multiple times that he initiated the divorce.
that is not according to scripture though!
Yeah hence the problem with him not supporting them per Scripture.
The separation
Get off your high horse and stop judging me!
If your wife were on this board, we'd be blaming BOTH of you. You just happen to be the one that publicly posts his personal business.
I've just been pointing you to what Scripture says.
Scripture is very clear about supporting ones family.
I am no longer married for the 50th time!
God word doesn't care about what the state says about your marriage. Your vows stated until Death do us part. You have made it clear that there was no Biblical Ground for Divorce so your marriage still stands in God's eyes.
Mark 10:19 "What therefore God has joined together, let not man separate.”
It's God's court and justice you should be concerned with.
How's that Lordship thing working for you, personally?
1. Your wife abandoning you does not justify your justification for divorcing her. Again, this is what I'm talking about...self-centered justification.
2. I'm not against drinking, and I'm really not sure what gave you that idea. You obviously were not "drinking to the glory of God" when you insisted that it was your right to drink under "Christian liberty" when your wife believed it was a sin. Again, this is what I am talking about....self-centered justification.
3. Yes, your positions have changed to suit your desires. And again, this is what I am talking about....self-centered justification.
Brother, it is not enough to call yourself a disciple of Christ. You really need to submit to His teachings. You cannot say that you are doing this (and I believe you are at least smart enough to realize this fact). If I can help you in any way, please feel free to PM me. But until you are willing to submit to Christ in all of these areas of your life, I don't think there is very much you can do for the kingdom. The Christian life is a process of repentance, but you seem so focused on justifying your transgressions and fulfilling your desires that submitting to the Lordship of Christ is foreign to your theology....except in word. When word and deed depart, all you are left with is what you have done.
