    Thank you for this message and God had helped me to win many battles, including: removing unneeded friends, unneeded people, people removing themselves from my life, and family that did me wrong. Keep letting God work in you for you.

    I actually cannot express how blessed I feel to have seen this video. We have the exact same name, even down to the middle name. Not only that, but I have been going through the same thing. This must only be an encounter of the divine.

    I just wonder how long I'm gonna be in this season. It just worries me and makes me feel bad. I've been in this season for about 4 years. Is it me or does God still have me in this season. I'm so lonely sometimes and I desire to get married and have friends. But I'm worried how that's gonna happen if I literally have no friends. I pray God send me friends. Please Lord you see this comment and hear my thoughts. Please help me JESUS!! I'm crying out to you! I'm so desperate for an answer!

    Hey Shelby, I came across this video maybe the beginning of this year. I've been going thru this season for a while of isolation and pruning, been having growing pains also, but its more than worth it for God. I wanted to come back to this video to thank you for introducing me to Dr. matthew stevenson, I had been praying for a church home around the time I saw this video and found that his church was right in my city, and his teachings have helped me so so much if you never recommended him I maybe wouldn't have found him or his church, God bless you, Its wonderful how that small seed you threw out has helped me in my life so much. I Pray God continues to bless you abundantly and keep up the good content.

    God bless you girl ! for you to have that mindset of putting God first and not caring for losing others is awesome! Jesus said if you love someone more then him then you're not fit to be his disciple. Go girl and never give up. I love God more than anything!! he comes first and I do not care to lose everything for him. He's worth it . I owe Everything to him for all the pain he went through to save me!!!

    • @Hannah-nc7cb
      @Hannah-nc7cb 6 ปีที่แล้ว

      I do have a mindset of putting God first like this morning I put God first solely just because like I will there are times that I will sit at the table for like for 5 hours just reading his word and you know I'll feel really good and I'll pray and I will you know and everything but for the part that scares me is Mark 10:29 we're okay so I have a husband who actually just came to Christ and we have a two-year-old son and my husband is on deployment and I'm about to lose my mind thinking that if I'm not on the street preaching to 1,500 people all in one go I feel like the whole world's going to crash down and burn because of me and my child well technically God's child child but I'm just blessed to be his mother doesn't understand what even well really anything is right now because he's too and so like whenever I go and boldly share my faith with someone it's like the Pain part of the persecution like when that day happens it's like really hard because you as a mom you don't want anything happening to your children so I'm like trying to not take my child out of God's hands and freak out but I've been through a lot of mental and emotional abuse and so trusting in someone when you can see them is different verses trust him and Jesus when the natural eye doesn't see in that aspect so by faith you walk by faith and not by sight and it's like such a hard Road and such a heavy cross that it just feels so overwhelming and even though my child doesn't understand there are times that I have to be like okay shove my childhood away and tell this person about Jesus and I'm like sitting there on the inside please don't hurt my child but I still share my faith boldly and regardless of what people think regardless of what people do it is so freaking hard. I just really really really I'm lonely and I do honestly feel isolated my mother-in-law she left after picking her up in it hoping that she would actually watch me in the sense that I struggle with low blood sugars in the morning so she make sure that I'm awake in the morning and now she ended up leaving and I basically just told him depend on God and hopes that I wake up like I said and because it's a hard battle like Mark 10:29 I feel like if I don't forsake my family reject them go and be poor on the street and preach the gospel to 1,500 people I feel like I'm condemned to hell and that I'm not worthy to be God's disciple and I mean I'm not worthy. Because I mean we're all Sinners and no one is righteous not even one so I just I don't understand that scripture very clearly I just do not want to be a teacher number one I am a female 2nd Timothy 2:12 and James 3:1 I will go witness to people boldly but I will not be a teacher just because of the fact that I don't want to be held accountable more for being a teacher but I do want to encourage and uplift the bride and bring unity in the bride because there is no Unity at least from what I see

      Daughter of thr King.. In the bible God says come as u are. God doesn't see the outside he sees the inside. He sees us as spiritual beings. Not physical beings. We accept a person as they are. You are wrong to Judge anyone. Dont do it. God loves his children. He don't say to us first tske off your earrings and make up before I accept u as mine.. No. You are very wrong and thst what u said is so like the pharisees were with Jesus. We need a relationship with the Lord. Maybe u need to go back to God and ask him for forgiveness and repent of your religious mindset
