Whoever is reading this God is still with you no matter how painful, depressing or hard things are. Trust in God. He will rescue you and will not fail.
I keep seeing your messages at the exact right times for weeks now I've been in a low and dark place for almost 3 years now but these bring comfort, God bless you.
This is so scary and tricky! Please Heavenly Father protect us from evil in Jesus mighty name! Help us to seek your kingdom and I seal this with the blood of JESUS
1. cutting a deal with "God"(Satan) 2. adding your own meaning to an unrelated event. 3. what you heard doesn't correspond with the bible/real life circumstances. 4.someone give a sign from "god"(satan) for their own glory. 5.leading you from God prescribed will(the word) just a brief sum
It's hard to be a true christian in society nowadays. Most of people that say they are christian or catholic are just lukewarm and hypocritical people. It's hard for me because I struggle with a lot of loneliness, depression, and social isolation and anxiety. I'm 20 and I just feel like I don't belong or fit in with other kids my age. I don't have a lot of friends. All everybody wants to do is party, do drugs, and hookup. Social media makes life more depressing. Dating in our society is terribly corrupted. The popular thing especially for young people is hookups, one night stands, casual sex, short term flings...not christian dating for the purpose of a God centered marriage. If I watch non-christian dating videos I get really confused and discouraged because they tell you that you need to say or do certain things to get a girl to sleep with you. Basically how much "game" you have. Like you have to be an alpha male and manipulate a girl into "loving " you. (Which technically, isn't really love at all). For example: "Say these 5 words to get any girl to have sex with you". That advice is corrupting. I mainly just focus on Christian centered dating advice since it gives me hope to find a real christian woman. I would only consider dating a girl who was a TRUE christian, but also one that I am attracted too. I don't believe in the worldly way of dating or even dating sites because 99% of the time it's just for hookups, casual sex and short term flings. It's difficult because my beliefs don't line up with what the world does. Even at church it is hard because I see a lot of hypocritical and lukewarm christians at church. They say one thing and live a lifestyle that's completely opposite. A real man leads a woman closer to God, not the bedroom. It's not about finding a woman that will give you an awesome night. It's about finding the right woman that will make you happy for a lifetime....unfortunately society doesn't see it that way. I easily get discouraged thinking that I'll never meet the right girl. Edit: I appreciate all the likes and the kind and encouraging comments. Thank you and God bless! 🙏
ChiefOnALeaf Focus on God. Cut out the worldly dating videos and advice that goes against God He knows the desires of our hearts; He PLACED them there. Don’t His timing is perfect. Just do His will, He it Jehovah Jireh, the Lord who will provide. Seek His kingdom first above all. Be encouraged, our trials strengthen us. You are never alone 🙏
1 John 5:19-21 (NIV) 19 We know that we are children of God, and that the whole world is under the control of the evil one. 20 We know also that the Son of God has come and has given us understanding, so that we may know him who is true. And we are in him who is true by being in his Son Jesus Christ. He is the true God and eternal life. 21 Dear children, keep yourselves from idols. Brother in Christ be encouraged to continue on the narrow path finding your joy in obeying the commands of the only true and wise God our Savior Jesus Christ. Ai'men🙏🏽
Young MAN, you are very spiritually gifted. And on the NARROW PATH stay there, you are woken and see things many young people choose not to see even when it's right in front of their faces. STAY FOCUS on JESUS and be satisfied with HIS WILL FOR your life at this time. What JEHOVAH has for you, no one can take it away it is all on GOD'S TIMING. REMEMBER DON'T BE ANXIOUS OF THINGS, PATIENCE IS A VIRTUE. JESUS HAS NOT AND WILL NOT FORSAKE YOU, HE KNOWS THE DESIRES OF YOUR HEART. THE YOUNG LADY HE HAS FOR YOU, MAY NOT BE READY YET, AND HE MAYBE GETTING HER TO THE PLACE WHERE YOU ARE IN YOUR WALK WITH CHRIST. LET'S JUST SAY SHE MIGHT NEED A LITTLE MORE SEASONING. SO YOU REMAIN FOCUSED ON JESUS GET A CLOSER AND STAY ALERT AND HELP OTHERS SEEK JESUS TIMING ITS ALL IN HIS TIME. GOD BLESS YOU EARTHLY ANGEL...
I was in new age as well. Jesus said: the truth will set us free. I'm now free from new age theories. But Still battling with some witchcraft in combination with erotics. The holy spirit is leading to a deeper peace. Humbling myself daily, staying in His love longer and longer.
MvE the Lord will set you free brother/sister I was also involved but the Lord saved me and he delivered me from things I got myself into😭✝️❤️ thanks be to God his blood is enough to cleanse us!!!✝️❤️❤️❤️❤️ you can message me anytime on here or my instagram @3armita3
Nette - nette I saw that a thousand times when talking to witch ladies. They are blind folded and their position causes a strong rebellion against the Word of God. Praying for these people is one thing I can do.
@@Michel777 I agree with you. That is all we can do if they are resistant to hearing the gospel & what we have to say. We must lead by example, if you are able to be in their lives. Otherwise, the people that i know that are still in this world but not in regular contact, all I can do is pray for them. The enemy hates to lose his servants but God is has power over all power of the enemy & he can be defeated. There is a testimony i saw on Sid Roths channel that helped me, it was from a very long time ago, about a woman who was working as a Psychic, badly abused as a child & explained how they spirits she worked with turned against her & she eventually found salvation in our Lord Jesus Christ. He is good & He is faithful. God bless you all.
I truly believe God does show signs and “drop hints”. Having the Holy Spirit to guide us is crucial, it is easy to misinterpret something. I used to work at a place that washes big 18 wheeler trucks. Frequently there would be trucks with a scripture and I always found that to be very encouraging. Often I witnessed to my co workers and lo and behold something like that would show up. The one instance that I’ll never forget was last year. I was going on vacation. 15 minutes before quitting time a truck pulls in with Genesis 28:15 on the side. Now that one really got my attention. Too much of a coincidence to be “just a coincidence” if you know what I mean. Those little gifts from God always made me smile!
I’ve screwed up so so many times and God still blesses me somehow. He has saved me a million times over it seems and I still screw up all the time, even though I try not too... It is difficult.
I have seen God and Satan use number plates (licence plates) in my life to get there way... 1. Licence plate 666 in it. The first time i saw this it creeped me out (666) part but I knew instantly its not something from God and as it turns out the car is normaly in the area where I walk. 2. Licence plate "PHP467" I knew in my spirit that was linked to something God was speaking to me about and needed to remind me of. When I arrived at my local libaray and Got out my Bible I discoverd that PHP=common abriveation for the book of Phillipians and the 467 part was Phillipans 4v6-7 "Dont be anxious about anything but by prayer, petition, supplication with thanksgiving take all your needs in prayer to Christ and the peace of Christ wich surpassess all understanding will come in and gaurd your heart, mind and soul" the very scripture God has been using in my life to help me with my anxiety. Its about the Holy Spirit perosnal inner wittness to the scripture/sign not the devil or making sence out of nonsence.
Yes. I agree it's about discernment. Years ago, I recall being so anxious about bills because I was financially strapped. I was at work and I happened to look down and I see a shirt that said, "Stay calm." My eyes brimmed with tears. After that I felt peace. God can use "multiple" avenues. But there are ministries literally partnering numerology with Christianity.
2. “Satan knows that when we want something too badly, we are easily influenced to believe his lives. When we have an idol in our hearts, it shapes the way we see every thing. Satan often uses the idols in our hearts to tempt us to see what we WANT to see and hear what we WANT to hear.”
Number 2 is really tricky especially for those who are just getting started on their relationship with God. I tend to think every little thing is a sign from Him. Thank you for this video.
“God doesn’t bless us because we are good. God blesses us because He is good. Certainly, He will require obedience from us before He will bless us with certain gifts. But that is so we are MATURE enough to handle those gifts and not because God wants us to earn good things from Him.” Amen. 😊 This is liberating! God bless you.
@@alexjose1587 I abstain from eating food all day (until 6 PM). I can drink water. I have set timers to have a prayer/worship moment at least twice a day for at least an hour. And all through the day I keep meditating (as much as I can) on what I've learned either in the morning or the previous night. Do you fast? If so, how do you do it?
As I’ve said, I suffer from depression and anxiety and many times felt like the devil is trying to overtake me and my soul. I have to really break through that and claim God as my savior and that the evil one leave me alone. I’m doing all I can to listen more to God but I do fail at times. I’m only human. But I pray for myself, my husband and or family and friends every night. Also for this evil virus to be eradicated. I’m also very spiritual and believe in life after death, etc.
I too have suffered from depression, anxiety, and suicidal thoughts. But we are to focus on our relationship. Not necessarily rituals or being spiritual.
@@ladennayoung2939 Check out this article: www.takebackyourtemple.com/3-ways-to-lift-the-spirit-of-heaviness/ It gave me a new perspective on my depression. (BTW, you have nice hair!)
Feelings of loss can get you through depression.in the last year i had moments of depression i felt my brethren are not helping either coz i have informed some about what i was going through....its a grip of the devil..ine thing that you can get through is focusing on God..what he is saying in his words and meditating on the word...thats how i got through by his grace.God bless
Troubling dreams that feel all too real. That’s another sign. When this happened to me I knew what the issue was and stopped it. Praying after dreams like these also works. But fix the issue in the morning!
Please remember God also speaks to us through dreams. It is biblical. The enemy also sows tares amongst the wheat. Another analogy of the enemy trying to make you come into covenant with plans and plots he has for your life in your dreams. Job 33:14-18
I "accidentally" tapped This video. It came out of nowhere. Turns out, it was what I needed at the very moment. Indeed, I was deceived with very subtle deceiptions. The no.1 hit me the hardest... For 1 week, I lost my appetite to read my bible. I still have a lot to learn indeed
Guys....I wanna share a recent miracle happened in my life...! Firstly, My name is Sara and I'm an Indian...I'm 14 yrs old girl😊! So...My mom was doing laundry today and after some hours...She asked me to go to the balcony for drying the clothes...It was almost 3:30 PM and I went to the balcony...! When I arrived there...The clouds were dark in the sky...So, I was a little worried that how will these clothes get dried...? But I remembered Jesus at that time..And I knelt on the surface imagining that God is before me and I'm kneeling before Him...I cried and prayed to Him that let these clothes get dried cause You are my Provider...and You are my Helper...and You are the Creator of all things so...please command these dark clouds to be cleared from here...So, please help me through this situation....I cried so hardly and asked for His mercy upon His child....I prayed that Don't let my cries and requests go wasted...And please listen to me! I got up with tears rolling down my cheeks...And I started putting clothes on the stand...! After putting clothes, I still trusted in Him and believed that He will listen to me....! Then I looked up in the sky...The sky was all covered with dark clouds...But I still didn't mind it...cause I knew that He is the God of Possible...Even if it was impossible, He made it possible...After some time, I again looked up and this time I saw the clouds clearing and were not much dark...I thanked him for his mercy...I came down my room and told my father about it...He too was happy and felt blessed....(My mother was sleeping then)! My eyes went through the window and this time I saw the sunlight's shadow was on the opposite house's walls....Oh! Jesus...I'm not much perfect to be your child...but you still listened to my cries and still loved me...I thanked him for his miraculous things which happened in my life...I shared to you all so...that you all could feel blessed and loved...He makes impossible things possible...! :)❤❤❤🙏🙏🙏 THANK YOU JESUS😌😌
I had my baby almost 2 months ago. 1 week before I had him, I was at Target and this lady who I don’t know, randomly came up to me. She told me she was a Christian and wasn’t sure if I was too but something inside of her was telling her to let me know that everything was going to be okay. She saw my belly and said God knew the fear I had going into labor but he wanted to reassure me that there is nothing to fear (she even quoted a Bible scripture) and that he loves me and my son very much. When she told me this, it brought me to tears because I had been praying since I became pregnant of how fearful I was going into labor since this was my first pregnancy. I never had anyone come up to me and say something like this to me before. After watching this video, it made me think if she would be considered a false prophet?? I’m a little confused as I know God sometimes speaks to us through other people.
God just used her to witness to u. It has happened to me before at a grocery store. Some stranger quoted scripture telling me not to worry and I was so full of anxiety that day
It’s crazy how I was praying to get an opportunity to talk to my friend about God and a couple days later my friend calls me and asks me if I believe in God and if he should read the Bible!😁🙏🏽
We don’t follow signs, signs follow us . Mark 16:17-18 And these signs shall follow those who believe. Jeremiah 33:3 Call to me and I will answer you, and will tell you great and hidden things which you have not known.
Signs follow us! Wow! I wish I had known this scripture & in its context sooner. But I know now! Hallelujah thank you for sharing this Holy Spirit led wisdom!
I see that sometimes I am getting it right and sometimes I'm getting wrong but I believe God has given me advice to correct and improve my walk with him thanks mark
I have faith in God and I know God is going to help me find the right one and I am true Christian.. women.. thank you Mark God bless you I love videos . God will open the door to all of us he loves us so much.. and he wants us all to be happy.. God is speaking to us throw your videos I do believe that..
I agree with you about God and the devil is pretending to be a Christian and his son Jesus Christ amen. I'm not going to listen to Satan now more than ever before.
I had an incest relationship with my sister and I got saved.I chose not to be a part of it and I was so joyful and I would give my 10% tithing to the church out of love for God I did not at all think that this would save me or bring me blessings but out of joy and love I give cheerfully God has turned my life around
Your videos are so meaningful to me! After just recently going through a very traumatic experience in my own life. Trying to see God for directions has been the hardest it's ever been for me moving forward. So confusing when you traumatic experience attacks your own mind. Thank you for this and the other videos!
😁 Well Mark I see you receive messages in God's perfect timing. I was just thinking an hour ago that I don't even deserve all the blessings He gives me each and every day. I guess it's just my human mind trying to figure out "why?" God bless you and your lovely family! 🙏✝️✌😇
one of the things satan often does to me is tempt me with my own desire to do good. he will call me to do this or that and makes it sound like im being righteous or sacrificing but ultimately they are traps that lead to self harm. if a voice is calling you to do something righteous but the spirit leading you to do it is fear, guilt or pressure rather then love, do not listen to it no matter how holy it seams. God is love and he calls with love always.
Amen Mark! First time commenting on your videos, but I've been a fan for nearly two years now. Thank you for what you say starting around the three-minute mark. So often I see people comment on your videos "This was the sign I've been waiting for!" or something like that, and it breaks my heart because it seems they're missing the point of your videos. Thank you so much, Mark! God Bless! -Nick
Posted this before I continued watching, but I love what you say at the four-minute mark as well! Earlier this year one of my pastors asked me if I thought about going to seminary, and I thought for sure that it was God's will. So I applied and everything was so quick - with very little headache (only one thing that ended up being my fault). Long story short I was accepted and I'll be starting school this fall. At that point, it became clear that it was in fact a sign from God that I should go.
When you have the example of the mission trip, I have to say, you are 100% correct. Two years ago, my church were going to a mission trip to Cuba and I really wanted to go, I prayed about it and everything. The spaces for filled up and later on two spots opened up because they decided not to go. I was so excited, but unfortunately it did not come to pass. Last year, our youth planned a mission trip to Mexico and I was so in. I prayed and doors were just opened. Let me tell you, the trip was $800, but I only payed $200. We sold plates, wash cars, etc and the amount of money we made was amazing. It literally payed for our mission trip and it also to buy medical supplies, food and just money to have, give in Mexico! My pastor says “ Gods will, Gods bill” it was literally awesome!!
There was a time when I was thinking about the guy I liked and when I opened my facebook there was a posting from a girl who had my first name and the guy's last name. I thought it was a sign but it wasn't since the relationship did not progress. 😕
Oh! That's very true brother, I was praying to God for revealing me truth, this is very true God has revealed all the truth. Glory to God and God bless you brother
God doesn’t bless us because WE are good God blesses us because HE IS GOOD 100% facts, all day every day! May we lean to God to be pleasing to him! So shall it BE!!!! ❤️
Everything you stated her is what I went through.. I struggled with my breakup trying to do God's work by my power, but none of it work... Lord, your grace and mercy is a I seek for in my life....
3. “God would never contradict something He has already plainly said in the Bible. When something we HEARD IN OUR HEAD which never occurs in reality, this too is a sign we did not really hear God say that. Because if God really said something, it always happens just as He said.” Amen.
THANK YOU. EXACTLY. 👍 You're smart. Only few caught it. HE'S TRYING TO MIMIC THE VOICE OF GOD TO SWAY THINGS. Their on DAMAGE CONTROL. God has blessed me with discernment to see through it. If you dont look closely you'll miss it. He's blowing smoke. Ignore him.
If you reading this , your ok , you going through something and looking for a sign in everything (social media , songs , books etc) your ok I promise God loves you .
You are telling the truth!Few boasting leaders speak in the name of God, assume that God is in their pocket. Really boasting, such people. Believers become prey to them instead of Praying to the Almighty Lord in Jesus' name. Leaders also change the mind of people by long preachings. But Jesus told, follow the scriptures. Lead a sinless life. 🙏💕
Ahhh...So I have been looking for a new job in a career that I have wanted for several years but since it’s not coming through and I am able to stay in my current position, I am apparently supposed to stay there. Got it! Thank you. Now I can be done with that and focus on what I have in hand.
I would see that as one piece of evidence, but when combined with others (like peace about that decision and what you sense God saying to you in prayer), it does present a strong case
“Satan wants us to believe that God operates on a works mentality. In other words, there’s nothing Satan would love to conceal more from us than God’s grace. Everything good God does for His people is ALWAYS by grace. Grace is an undeserved gift. If you earned it, it would no longer be grace.” What a blessing 🙌🏾 to see this clearly with understanding and to know that I’ve been deceived. Thanks be to God for the truth. And for some reason, I happen to remember these verses: “Now to him who works, the wages are not counted as grace but as debt. But to him who does not work but believes on Him who justifies the ungodly, his faith is accounted for righteousness…” (Romans 4:4-5).
Thank you for this video brother. Let's continue to praise God and grow in the faith, this pandemic is very devastating but if there is one blessed hope from this that is Jesus! Let's encourage eachother and trust in God
Hi Mark, was so amazed when this video came up first on my homepage of youtube, as I had just read Isaiah 55:10. Felt like God was speaking to me... So cool
Giving should make you feel good. Thats the gift. Gift giving isnt an interest based act. It is joyful to give. It means you blessed and you want to bless others, being a reflection of your father.
Thank you so much brother, for sharing this. It brought me so much understanding about many things I had been questioning, for a long time. There was even an issue I had had no peace about, just yesterday, regarding someone else's life, which seemed to me like, "scratch my back and I'll scratch your's."
Most the time folks like to blame SATAN.. when the real enemy is you and what's in you. Smite sin.. go all in.. get rid of the wrong and it makes room for the right. Decrease so he can increase.. when you renew your mind by the washing of the word.. it's your own walk that has to be protected ,so the word can be retained. You will leak if you allow other idols in to have competition.. then you wonder why your attacked and being ruled by feelings.. then you wonder why you stay around people, places and things.. only to minimize, justify, deny,spiritualize.. and keep you bad and busy not to truly REPENT.. FEW WILL MAKE IT.. ARE YOU THE FEW? COME OUT FROM AMONGST THEM AND BE SEPARATED SAYS THE LORD, TOUCH NOT THE UNCLEAN THING AND I WILL RECEIVE YOU.. DONT HAVE SIDE KICKS.. CHICKS, STICKS OR PICKS BEFORE A HOLY GOD.. HE WILL SPUE YOU OUT ON THAT DAY, AS WELL AS BLOT YOUR NAME OUT OF THE GOOD BOOK OF LIFE. HE IS HOLY NOT HORNY.. HE IS WRATH AND HIS LOVE IS JUST.. ITS JUDGMENT DAY NOT MERCY DAY. TO BE BORN AGAIN, BAPTIZED AND HOLY SPIRIT FILLED MEANS TO COME TO HIM ON HIS TERMS.. YOU FORSAKE YOUR LIFE.. DREAMS, DESIRES, GOALS.. YOU PICK UP YOUR CROSS DAILY AND FOLLOW JESUS TIL THE END. THERE ARE SERIOUS CONDITIONS TO HIS ENTRANCE INTO HEAVEN. SALVATION IS TO EACH MAN THERE OWN. ITS AN OPEN BOOK TEST FOR EVERYONE.. WHEN THE BODY SUIT DROPS YOU DONT GET TO RENOGSIATE THIS. REPENT SINNERS.. PASS FROM DEATH TO LIFE. HE IS COMING BACK FOR HIS SAINTS NOT SINNERS.. WHO BEWITCHED YOU??? DONT FOLLOW MORTAL MEN TO THE SLAUGHTERHOUSE. COME OUT FROM AMONGST THEM AND BE SEPARATED. WORSHIP HIM IN SPIRIT AND IN TRUTH. IT IS NOT WHAT YOU THINK IT IS.. YOU WILL DIE, YOUR BODY SHOULD SMELL LIKE A DEAD CORPSE TO THE WORLD.. STAY IN THE SCHOOL OF THE HOLY SPIRIT AND GET FILAD LIKE A FISH FOR HIS GLORY!!!
This is good. Just had a similar situation. One of my main issues is I used to be a Christian player. I didn't know it but I was. And now I have a bad reputation. But I'm working on it. Any tips?
God is already working about your matters,and His waiting for you.the thing you need to do is surrendered everything to Him and ask for true repentance.God bless
Don't date or express interest in anyone until you know them well. That will prevent you from jumping around too much. That would not be advice for all people, but that will help with your specific issue
@@ApplyGodsWordcomMarkBallenger had the same problem, asked the same question to multiple non-christian dating coaches : no one even bothered to answer... Thanks for replying to us and give us worthy piece of advice, to me it really goes a long way. God bless you. Thanks for all the time and effort.
Thanks guys. I did intend well but it was interpreted wrong now I'm not talking to any women alone. Unless it's in a group. Many married ladies love me and say I have tons of good qualities I just need to purge from single girls for a time and get to know the lady I'm interested in before pursuing. Complete 180
ApplyGodsWord.com/Mark Ballenger so pretty much don’t go out looking for them and then claim “God is saying XX and it proves I’m right!” Correct? Appreciate you
Satan is the father of all lies. When you're tired, heartbroken and vulnerable,it's easy for the enemy to get in and deceive you and others. Take your time, check things out, put out some fleeces and test things making sure they line up with the word! Take it from someone who rushed in and made mistakes by doing things to the contrary to the above advice and now reaping the harvest of bad seed sown.... God bless
Wow!! I once was a lost one.. Used to listen to evil things.. But now I came back to God.. I also found out that Satan was deceiving me all the time!!! I did not clicked this video accidentally.. Jesus wants me to see this
So many people use the spiritual to profit whether through control and manipulation ( especially mind control), financial ( such as the accumulation of riches and land ownership) or sexual abuse, much is rampant within the spiritual and religious communities but kept under a veil of secrecy. It's important to use discernment and speak up if any type of sin is being committed against oneself! The way to recognise God is that God is pure, the rest is human error.
While it is true that we can't make a deal with God to receive blessings from Him, scripturally there are many blessings that God offers that can *only* be received through our obedience and faith in Him, not just grace.
God is not a God of "Quid Pro Quo.".Please forgive me, and I don't mean to offend anyone. But that sounds so "Catholic." We are "saved by grace through faith." Not works (lest any man should boast). God tries every "believers" mettle (or faith) through the fire, to see what your faith is made of. We truly were created with FREE-WILL to choose this or that. Because in the end, when judgment day comes NO ONE will be able to point the finger of blame at God. No one! God doesn't send anyone to hell. We send ourselves to hell with the choices we make. However, you must study the word to know the truth and the truth shall make you FREE. Your faith will be tried through fiery trials. What path you choose to take during that trial proves where your faith lies and who you are (whether your mettle is gold, stubble or cheap electroplate). It's simple: You either make decisions based on the dictates of FLESH (Fear, Lust, Ignorance) or you make decisions based on the dictates of SPIRIT (Faith, Knowledge, Wisdom, and Repentance). It's that simple. But irrespective of the scenario of the trial, the choice always remains YOURS. We're not automatons. So please don't blame God for the choices you make when your life turns out to be NOT what you wanted. We're free moral agents. We are God's offspring. The choice was always yours. Lastly, God cares more about your personal relationship with Him first before any temporal, fleshly pleasure you may ask for or want. That's why the first commandment is "Thou shall have NO other gods before me" speaking of Himself. The Alpha and the Omega, the beginning and the end, the first and the last. He is omniscient (all-knowing), omnipresent (everywhere at once) and omnipotent (all-powerful). If you're ever going to fear something. Fear God. Not man.
It’s always Christians insulting Catholics! Do not do that and don’t spew things that aren’t completely true. Catholics are main priority is God and our faith secondly yes helping out thy neighbor when in need and not turn your back on them. Only help from the kindness of your heart not just because you want to boast(big no no).
"... Be doers of the word, and not hearers only, deceiving yourselves. For if anyone is a hearer of the word and not a doer, he is like a man observing his natural face in a mirror; for he observes himself, goes away and immediately forgets what kind of man he was. But he who looks into the perfect law of liberty and continues in it, and is not a forgetful hearer but a doer of the work, this one will be blessed in what he does (James 1:22 - 25 NKJV)." (i.e. Don't just "talk the talk" so to speak. "Walk the walk.)"
Recently God told me to press on to my goal from Phillipians 3. And that goal is moving out. I have been listening to Satan more than God. I've been so distracted with finding a relationship, when God is calling me to move to Florida. I know God has someone out there for me, but maybe he's not here where I currently live. But I wonder if there are any signs God is telling you to move out. Any signs you guys have when he's telling you to move out?

It's hard to be a true christian in society nowadays. Most of people that say they are christian or catholic are just lukewarm and hypocritical people. It's hard for me because I struggle with a lot of loneliness, depression, and social isolation and anxiety. I'm 20 and I just feel like I don't belong or fit in with other kids my age. I don't have a lot of friends. All everybody wants to do is party, do drugs, and hookup. Social media makes life more depressing. Dating in our society is terribly corrupted. The popular thing especially for young people is hookups, one night stands, casual sex, short term flings...not christian dating for the purpose of a God centered marriage. If I watch non-christian dating videos I get really confused and discouraged because they tell you that you need to say or do certain things to get a girl to sleep with you. Basically how much "game" you have. Like you have to be an alpha male and manipulate a girl into "loving " you. (Which technically, isn't really love at all). For example: "Say these 5 words to get any girl to have sex with you". That advice is corrupting. I mainly just focus on Christian centered dating advice since it gives me hope to find a real christian woman. I would only consider dating a girl who was a TRUE christian, but also one that I am attracted too. I don't believe in the worldly way of dating or even dating sites because 99% of the time it's just for hookups, casual sex and short term flings. It's difficult because my beliefs don't line up with what the world does. Even at church it is hard because I see a lot of hypocritical and lukewarm christians at church. They say one thing and live a lifestyle that's completely opposite. A real man leads a woman closer to God, not the bedroom. It's not about finding a woman that will give you an awesome night. It's about finding the right woman that will make you happy for a lifetime....unfortunately society doesn't see it that way. I easily get discouraged thinking that I'll never meet the right girl.
Edit: I appreciate all the likes and the kind and encouraging comments. Thank you and God bless! 🙏
ChiefOnALeaf Focus on God. Cut out the worldly dating videos and advice that goes against God He knows the
desires of our hearts; He PLACED them there. Don’t His timing is perfect. Just do His will, He it Jehovah Jireh, the Lord who will provide. Seek His kingdom first above all. Be encouraged, our trials strengthen us. You are never alone 🙏
1 John 5:19-21 (NIV)
19 We know that we are children of God, and that the whole world is under the control of the evil one. 20 We know also that the Son of God has come and has given us understanding, so that we may know him who is true. And we are in him who is true by being in his Son Jesus Christ. He is the true God and eternal life.
21 Dear children, keep yourselves from idols.
Brother in Christ be encouraged to continue on the narrow path finding your joy in obeying the commands of the only true and wise God our Savior Jesus Christ. Ai'men🙏🏽
1 John 3 is helpful
Yes, it's true. So sad :(
Young MAN, you are very spiritually gifted. And on the NARROW PATH stay there, you are woken and see things many young people choose not to see even when it's right in front of their faces. STAY FOCUS on JESUS and be satisfied with HIS WILL FOR your life at this time. What JEHOVAH has for you, no one can take it away it is all on GOD'S TIMING. REMEMBER DON'T BE ANXIOUS OF THINGS, PATIENCE IS A VIRTUE. JESUS HAS NOT AND WILL NOT FORSAKE YOU, HE KNOWS THE DESIRES OF YOUR HEART. THE YOUNG LADY HE HAS FOR YOU, MAY NOT BE READY YET, AND HE MAYBE GETTING HER TO THE PLACE WHERE YOU ARE IN YOUR WALK WITH CHRIST. LET'S JUST SAY SHE MIGHT NEED A LITTLE MORE SEASONING. SO YOU REMAIN FOCUSED ON JESUS GET A CLOSER AND STAY ALERT AND HELP OTHERS SEEK JESUS TIMING ITS ALL IN HIS TIME. GOD BLESS YOU EARTHLY ANGEL...
New Agers need to see this, I was deceived in that world, praise God for the truth I found in His word.
God bless!
I was in new age as well. Jesus said: the truth will set us free. I'm now free from new age theories. But Still battling with some witchcraft in combination with erotics. The holy spirit is leading to a deeper peace. Humbling myself daily, staying in His love longer and longer.
MvE the Lord will set you free brother/sister I was also involved but the Lord saved me and he delivered me from things I got myself into😭✝️❤️ thanks be to God his blood is enough to cleanse us!!!✝️❤️❤️❤️❤️ you can message me anytime on here or my instagram @3armita3
Nette - nette I saw that a thousand times when talking to witch ladies. They are blind folded and their position causes a strong rebellion against the Word of God. Praying for these people is one thing I can do.
@@Michel777 I agree with you. That is all we can do if they are resistant to hearing the gospel & what we have to say. We must lead by example, if you are able to be in their lives. Otherwise, the people that i know that are still in this world but not in regular contact, all I can do is pray for them. The enemy hates to lose his servants but God is has power over all power of the enemy & he can be defeated. There is a testimony i saw on Sid Roths channel that helped me, it was from a very long time ago, about a woman who was working as a Psychic, badly abused as a child & explained how they spirits she worked with turned against her & she eventually found salvation in our Lord Jesus Christ. He is good & He is faithful. God bless you all.
I truly believe God does show signs and “drop hints”. Having the Holy Spirit to guide us is crucial, it is easy to misinterpret something. I used to work at a place that washes big 18 wheeler trucks. Frequently there would be trucks with a scripture and I always found that to be very encouraging. Often I witnessed to my co workers and lo and behold something like that would show up. The one instance that I’ll never forget was last year. I was going on vacation. 15 minutes before quitting time a truck pulls in with Genesis 28:15 on the side. Now that one really got my attention. Too much of a coincidence to be “just a coincidence” if you know what I mean. Those little gifts from God always made me smile!
I’ve screwed up so so many times and God still blesses me somehow. He has saved me a million times over it seems and I still screw up all the time, even though I try not too... It is difficult.
Sometimes a clear sign isn’t enough and that’s the problem
I have seen God and Satan use number plates (licence plates) in my life to get there way...
1. Licence plate 666 in it. The first time i saw this it creeped me out (666) part but I knew instantly its not something from God and as it turns out the car is normaly in the area where I walk.
2. Licence plate "PHP467" I knew in my spirit that was linked to something God was speaking to me about and needed to remind me of. When I arrived at my local libaray and Got out my Bible I discoverd that PHP=common abriveation for the book of Phillipians and the 467 part was Phillipans 4v6-7 "Dont be anxious about anything but by prayer, petition, supplication with thanksgiving take all your needs in prayer to Christ and the peace of Christ wich surpassess all understanding will come in and gaurd your heart, mind and soul" the very scripture God has been using in my life to help me with my anxiety.
Its about the Holy Spirit perosnal inner wittness to the scripture/sign not the devil or making sence out of nonsence.
Scripture is key :)
Yes. I agree it's about discernment. Years ago, I recall being so anxious about bills because I was financially strapped. I was at work and I happened to look down and I see a shirt that said, "Stay calm." My eyes brimmed with tears. After that I felt peace. God can use "multiple" avenues. But there are ministries literally partnering numerology with Christianity.
Omg same!! When I see the numbers they’re always tied to a bible verse!!
Scripture is key + holy spirit leading is always needed.
Ahhh I love this!
2. “Satan knows that when we want something too badly, we are easily influenced to believe his lives. When we have an idol in our hearts, it shapes the way we see every thing. Satan often uses the idols in our hearts to tempt us to see what we WANT to see and hear what we WANT to hear.”
This is why I don't listen to 99.9% of my thoughts. It's probably from the devil.
Honestly It’s scary
@@leona5508 agree
1 Peter 5:7 “Turn all your anxiety over to God because he cares for you.” Jesus loves you dont give up on him!❤!
Number 2 is really tricky especially for those who are just getting started on their relationship with God. I tend to think every little thing is a sign from Him. Thank you for this video.
Satan be TRIPPIN!!!
James 4:7! :)
😂🙌🏾
Ohh yeah! Take that Satan!
@Pharaoh Ramesses II Wrong, you need Jesus. Repent of that sin
@Pharaoh Ramesses II Wrong, Jesus never sinned
“God doesn’t bless us because we are good. God blesses us because He is good. Certainly, He will require obedience from us before He will bless us with certain gifts. But that is so we are MATURE enough to handle those gifts and not because God wants us to earn good things from Him.” Amen. 😊 This is liberating! God bless you.
Just as I'm entering a fast... How timely! Blessings brother Mark!
Amen, so glad this was timely!
The lockdown is the perfect opportunity to fast...
@@keithrogers4170 indeed!
How do you fast ?
@@alexjose1587 I abstain from eating food all day (until 6 PM). I can drink water. I have set timers to have a prayer/worship moment at least twice a day for at least an hour. And all through the day I keep meditating (as much as I can) on what I've learned either in the morning or the previous night. Do you fast? If so, how do you do it?
As I’ve said, I suffer from depression and anxiety and many times felt like the devil is trying to overtake me and my soul. I have to really break through that and claim God as my savior and that the evil one leave me alone. I’m doing all I can to listen more to God but I do fail at times. I’m only human. But I pray for myself, my husband and or family and friends every night. Also for this evil virus to be eradicated. I’m also very spiritual and believe in life after death, etc.
I too have suffered from depression, anxiety, and suicidal thoughts. But we are to focus on our relationship. Not necessarily rituals or being spiritual.

@@ladennayoung2939 Check out this article: www.takebackyourtemple.com/3-ways-to-lift-the-spirit-of-heaviness/
It gave me a new perspective on my depression.
(BTW, you have nice hair!)
@bludrop5 Don't call it my depression. Don't take ownership of it. Instead say " the depression." Remove the word "my."
Feelings of loss can get you through depression.in the last year i had moments of depression i felt my brethren are not helping either coz i have informed some about what i was going through....its a grip of the devil..ine thing that you can get through is focusing on God..what he is saying in his words and meditating on the word...thats how i got through by his grace.God bless
The best explanations ever. If only God's ppl would just wait to hear God and not depend on themselves n others
God bless! All glory to him!
Troubling dreams that feel all too real. That’s another sign. When this happened to me I knew what the issue was and stopped it. Praying after dreams like these also works. But fix the issue in the morning!
Bad dreams are often due to bad thinking when awake. But yes, prayer is key either way!
Same happened to me 🙄 in a relationship
Please remember God also speaks to us through dreams. It is biblical. The enemy also sows tares amongst the wheat. Another analogy of the enemy trying to make you come into covenant with plans and plots he has for your life in your dreams. Job 33:14-18
Tiffany Favray Yesss I had bad dreams before the events in my relationships took place in real life.
I "accidentally" tapped This video. It came out of nowhere. Turns out, it was what I needed at the very moment. Indeed, I was deceived with very subtle deceiptions. The no.1 hit me the hardest...
For 1 week, I lost my appetite to read my bible. I still have a lot to learn indeed
Yeah, same, I too still have a lot to learn - gotta read the Bible more, I guess
Guys....I wanna share a recent miracle happened in my life...! Firstly, My name is Sara and I'm an Indian...I'm 14 yrs old girl😊! So...My mom was doing laundry today and after some hours...She asked me to go to the balcony for drying the clothes...It was almost 3:30 PM and I went to the balcony...! When I arrived there...The clouds were dark in the sky...So, I was a little worried that how will these clothes get dried...? But I remembered Jesus at that time..And I knelt on the surface imagining that God is before me and I'm kneeling before Him...I cried and prayed to Him that let these clothes get dried cause You are my Provider...and You are my Helper...and You are the Creator of all things so...please command these dark clouds to be cleared from here...So, please help me through this situation....I cried so hardly and asked for His mercy upon His child....I prayed that Don't let my cries and requests go wasted...And please listen to me! I got up with tears rolling down my cheeks...And I started putting clothes on the stand...! After putting clothes, I still trusted in Him and believed that He will listen to me....! Then I looked up in the sky...The sky was all covered with dark clouds...But I still didn't mind it...cause I knew that He is the God of Possible...Even if it was impossible, He made it possible...After some time, I again looked up and this time I saw the clouds clearing and were not much dark...I thanked him for his mercy...I came down my room and told my father about it...He too was happy and felt blessed....(My mother was sleeping then)! My eyes went through the window and this time I saw the sunlight's shadow was on the opposite house's walls....Oh! Jesus...I'm not much perfect to be your child...but you still listened to my cries and still loved me...I thanked him for his miraculous things which happened in my life...I shared to you all so...that you all could feel blessed and loved...He makes impossible things possible...! :)❤❤❤🙏🙏🙏 THANK YOU JESUS😌😌
Our Heavenly Father is the greatest! 🙏🏻💪🏻
Amazing beautiful story ❤️✨
@@nardosx It's not a story...It's a miracle! 😊😊😊
Aftab Saifi yes you are right it’s a MIRACLE
I had my baby almost 2 months ago. 1 week before I had him, I was at Target and this lady who I don’t know, randomly came up to me. She told me she was a Christian and wasn’t sure if I was too but something inside of her was telling her to let me know that everything was going to be okay. She saw my belly and said God knew the fear I had going into labor but he wanted to reassure me that there is nothing to fear (she even quoted a Bible scripture) and that he loves me and my son very much. When she told me this, it brought me to tears because I had been praying since I became pregnant of how fearful I was going into labor since this was my first pregnancy. I never had anyone come up to me and say something like this to me before. After watching this video, it made me think if she would be considered a false prophet?? I’m a little confused as I know God sometimes speaks to us through other people.
Cheryl Childress thank you so much!
@@WayfaringStranger1420 I agree.
God just used her to witness to u. It has happened to me before at a grocery store. Some stranger quoted scripture telling me not to worry and I was so full of anxiety that day
Promise Smithee thank you, I now know that the Lord sent her to me and I am forever grateful ❤️
It’s crazy how I was praying to get an opportunity to talk to my friend about God and a couple days later my friend calls me and asks me if I believe in God and if he should read the Bible!😁🙏🏽

I had an incest relationship with my sister and I got saved.I chose not to be a part of it and I was so joyful and I would give my 10% tithing
to the church out of love for God I did not at all think that this would save me or bring me blessings but out of joy and love I give cheerfully God has turned my life around
That's wonderful! I'm happy for you. We should always run to God whenever we fall into sin. If we are sorry, he will forgive us.
Glad you walked away from that brother, I'm proud of you, keep up the good work 👍
That good u got out of it theres demons that act on incest.
Amen!!!
Mmm interesting glad quit that life man.
wow i am so happy i found this video
Your videos are so meaningful to me! After just recently going through a very traumatic experience in my own life. Trying to see God for directions has been the hardest it's ever been for me moving forward. So confusing when you traumatic experience attacks your own mind. Thank you for this and the other videos!
😁 Well Mark I see you receive messages in God's perfect timing. I was just thinking an hour ago that I don't even deserve all the blessings He gives me each and every day. I guess it's just my human mind trying to figure out "why?" God bless you and your lovely family! 🙏✝️✌😇
I was just thinking of Satan pretending to be God and voila Mark published his video😂❤

Amen Karlene! We don't deserve God's blessing but we have them nonetheless because of his grace :)
@@helgathegreat Thank you! God bless you as well! 🙏✝️💪👁
one of the things satan often does to me is tempt me with my own desire to do good. he will call me to do this or that and makes it sound like im being righteous or sacrificing but ultimately they are traps that lead to self harm. if a voice is calling you to do something righteous but the spirit leading you to do it is fear, guilt or pressure rather then love, do not listen to it no matter how holy it seams. God is love and he calls with love always.
Amen Mark! First time commenting on your videos, but I've been a fan for nearly two years now. Thank you for what you say starting around the three-minute mark. So often I see people comment on your videos "This was the sign I've been waiting for!" or something like that, and it breaks my heart because it seems they're missing the point of your videos. Thank you so much, Mark! God Bless!
-Nick
So glad you are enjoying the channel Nick! God bless brother!
Posted this before I continued watching, but I love what you say at the four-minute mark as well! Earlier this year one of my pastors asked me if I thought about going to seminary, and I thought for sure that it was God's will. So I applied and everything was so quick - with very little headache (only one thing that ended up being my fault). Long story short I was accepted and I'll be starting school this fall. At that point, it became clear that it was in fact a sign from God that I should go.
I needed to hear this...thank you 🙏🏽God bless you.
God bless you too!
When you have the example of the mission trip, I have to say, you are 100% correct. Two years ago, my church were going to a mission trip to Cuba and I really wanted to go, I prayed about it and everything. The spaces for filled up and later on two spots opened up because they decided not to go. I was so excited, but unfortunately it did not come to pass. Last year, our youth planned a mission trip to Mexico and I was so in. I prayed and doors were just opened. Let me tell you, the trip was $800, but I only payed $200. We sold plates, wash cars, etc and the amount of money we made was amazing. It literally payed for our mission trip and it also to buy medical supplies, food and just money to have, give in Mexico! My pastor says “ Gods will, Gods bill” it was literally awesome!!
Oh my gosh...the first point he stated has been something I struggled with for years. Thank you thank you thank you!
You are so welcome! All glory to God!
Your last bible verse that you posted is the verse God has given me as my personal confirmation for the past 4 years. Thank you for blessing me.
There was a time when I was thinking about the guy I liked and when I opened my facebook there was a posting from a girl who had my first name and the guy's last name. I thought it was a sign but it wasn't since the relationship did not progress. 😕
😂
God doesn't bless us because we are good God blesses us because he is good Amen in Jesus Christ name Amen brother.🙏🏽🙏🏽🙏🏽🙏🏽
Oh! That's very true brother, I was praying to God for revealing me truth, this is very true God has revealed all the truth. Glory to God and God bless you brother

3. “God would never contradict something He has already plainly said in the Bible. When something we HEARD IN OUR HEAD which never occurs in reality, this too is a sign we did not really hear God say that. Because if God really said something, it always happens just as He said.” Amen.
This video is sooooo accurate ive definitely been down the wrong path. Thats ego and pride, both entry points for the devil.
THANK YOU. EXACTLY. 👍 You're smart. Only few caught it. HE'S TRYING TO MIMIC THE VOICE OF GOD TO SWAY THINGS. Their on DAMAGE CONTROL. God has blessed me with discernment to see through it. If you dont look closely you'll miss it. He's blowing smoke. Ignore him.
If you reading this , your ok , you going through something and looking for a sign in everything (social media , songs , books etc) your ok I promise God loves you .
You are telling the truth!Few boasting leaders speak in the name of God, assume that God is in their pocket. Really boasting, such people. Believers become prey to them instead of Praying to the Almighty Lord in Jesus' name. Leaders also change the mind of people by long preachings. But Jesus told, follow the scriptures. Lead a sinless life. 🙏💕
God bless!
Ahhh...So I have been looking for a new job in a career that I have wanted for several years but since it’s not coming through and I am able to stay in my current position, I am apparently supposed to stay there. Got it! Thank you. Now I can be done with that and focus on what I have in hand.
I would see that as one piece of evidence, but when combined with others (like peace about that decision and what you sense God saying to you in prayer), it does present a strong case

@@ApplyGodsWordcomMarkBallenger what church do you belong to or go too?
“Satan wants us to believe that God operates on a works mentality. In other words, there’s nothing Satan would love to conceal more from us than God’s grace. Everything good God does for His people is ALWAYS by grace. Grace is an undeserved gift. If you earned it, it would no longer be grace.” What a blessing 🙌🏾 to see this clearly with understanding and to know that I’ve been deceived. Thanks be to God for the truth. And for some reason, I happen to remember these verses: “Now to him who works, the wages are not counted as grace but as debt. But to him who does not work but believes on Him who justifies the ungodly, his faith is accounted for righteousness…” (Romans 4:4-5).
GOD ALSO ASK FOR OUR WORKS AS PAUL SAYS... GOD BLESS HIS ONE AND ONLY CATHOLIC CHURCH
Thank you. The Lord God Almighty has truly anointed you.
This is helping me and my relationship as I write. Thank you so much! Thank you for Loving God and doing His work
You are so welcome! God's grace is sufficient!
Thank you for this video brother. Let's continue to praise God and grow in the faith, this pandemic is very devastating but if there is one blessed hope from this that is Jesus! Let's encourage eachother and trust in God
Hi Mark, was so amazed when this video came up first on my homepage of youtube, as I had just read Isaiah 55:10. Felt like God was speaking to me... So cool
Just what I needed! Had a feeling something was off lately & there’s so many answers in here 🙏🏼
Giving should make you feel good. Thats the gift. Gift giving isnt an interest based act. It is joyful to give. It means you blessed and you want to bless others, being a reflection of your father.
Thank you so much brother, for sharing this. It brought me so much understanding about many things I had been questioning, for a long time. There was even an issue I had had no peace about, just yesterday, regarding someone else's life, which seemed to me like, "scratch my back and I'll scratch your's."
Ooh, What a revelation? I love that 'Truth.' God is faithful 🙏
Mentioned things about 'idol' really struck me as i am dealing with letting it go rn... Thank you
Thank you Holy Spirit for leading and guiding 🙏🙏 my dear brother, God bless you 🙏I’m truly blessed 🙏
Most the time folks like to blame SATAN.. when the real enemy is you and what's in you. Smite sin.. go all in.. get rid of the wrong and it makes room for the right. Decrease so he can increase.. when you renew your mind by the washing of the word.. it's your own walk that has to be protected ,so the word can be retained. You will leak if you allow other idols in to have competition.. then you wonder why your attacked and being ruled by feelings.. then you wonder why you stay around people, places and things.. only to minimize, justify, deny,spiritualize.. and keep you bad and busy not to truly REPENT.. FEW WILL MAKE IT.. ARE YOU THE FEW? COME OUT FROM AMONGST THEM AND BE SEPARATED SAYS THE LORD, TOUCH NOT THE UNCLEAN THING AND I WILL RECEIVE YOU.. DONT HAVE SIDE KICKS.. CHICKS, STICKS OR PICKS BEFORE A HOLY GOD.. HE WILL SPUE YOU OUT ON THAT DAY, AS WELL AS BLOT YOUR NAME OUT OF THE GOOD BOOK OF LIFE. HE IS HOLY NOT HORNY.. HE IS WRATH AND HIS LOVE IS JUST.. ITS JUDGMENT DAY NOT MERCY DAY. TO BE BORN AGAIN, BAPTIZED AND HOLY SPIRIT FILLED MEANS TO COME TO HIM ON HIS TERMS.. YOU FORSAKE YOUR LIFE.. DREAMS, DESIRES, GOALS.. YOU PICK UP YOUR CROSS DAILY AND FOLLOW JESUS TIL THE END. THERE ARE SERIOUS CONDITIONS TO HIS ENTRANCE INTO HEAVEN. SALVATION IS TO EACH MAN THERE OWN. ITS AN OPEN BOOK TEST FOR EVERYONE.. WHEN THE BODY SUIT DROPS YOU DONT GET TO RENOGSIATE THIS. REPENT SINNERS.. PASS FROM DEATH TO LIFE. HE IS COMING BACK FOR HIS SAINTS NOT SINNERS.. WHO BEWITCHED YOU??? DONT FOLLOW MORTAL MEN TO THE SLAUGHTERHOUSE. COME OUT FROM AMONGST THEM AND BE SEPARATED. WORSHIP HIM IN SPIRIT AND IN TRUTH. IT IS NOT WHAT YOU THINK IT IS.. YOU WILL DIE, YOUR BODY SHOULD SMELL LIKE A DEAD CORPSE TO THE WORLD.. STAY IN THE SCHOOL OF THE HOLY SPIRIT AND GET FILAD LIKE A FISH FOR HIS GLORY!!!
Thank you for this insight pastor Mark.
God bless!
Thank you Jehovah!!! Oh how wonderful you are!
This is good. Just had a similar situation. One of my main issues is I used to be a Christian player. I didn't know it but I was. And now I have a bad reputation. But I'm working on it. Any tips?
God is already working about your matters,and His waiting for you.the thing you need to do is surrendered everything to Him and ask for true repentance.God bless
Don't date or express interest in anyone until you know them well. That will prevent you from jumping around too much. That would not be advice for all people, but that will help with your specific issue
@@ApplyGodsWordcomMarkBallenger had the same problem, asked the same question to multiple non-christian dating coaches : no one even bothered to answer...
Thanks for replying to us and give us worthy piece of advice, to me it really goes a long way.
God bless you. Thanks for all the time and effort.
Thanks guys. I did intend well but it was interpreted wrong now I'm not talking to any women alone. Unless it's in a group. Many married ladies love me and say I have tons of good qualities I just need to purge from single girls for a time and get to know the lady I'm interested in before pursuing. Complete 180
Yeah i have some advice..... Stop trying to get attention and actually ask God for pure desires.......
This really helped me to overcome my ocd
Thank you God for angel numbers again. I needed this!
The other day I went for a walk and checked how many steps I took during that walk it said 7,777! I took a screen shot because I was so amazed lol!

ApplyGodsWord.com/Mark Ballenger so pretty much don’t go out looking for them and then claim “God is saying XX and it proves I’m right!” Correct? Appreciate you

Yet again, so vital and timely for me. As soon as I see the video pop up and read the titles I know. Thank you Mark!
God is good!
Satan is the father of all lies. When you're tired, heartbroken and vulnerable,it's easy for the enemy to get in and deceive you and others. Take your time, check things out, put out some fleeces and test things making sure they line up with the word! Take it from someone who rushed in and made mistakes by doing things to the contrary to the above advice and now reaping the harvest of bad seed sown.... God bless
Thank you Mark, this is what I needed to hear. My the peace and grace of god be with you.
Wow!! I once was a lost one.. Used to listen to evil things.. But now I came back to God.. I also found out that Satan was deceiving me all the time!!! I did not clicked this video accidentally.. Jesus wants me to see this
So many people use the spiritual to profit whether through control and manipulation ( especially mind control), financial ( such as the accumulation of riches and land ownership) or sexual abuse, much is rampant within the spiritual and religious communities but kept under a veil of secrecy. It's important to use discernment and speak up if any type of sin is being committed against oneself! The way to recognise God is that God is pure, the rest is human error.
Thank you for your truths.
All glory to God!
Wow! I needed this so badly!❤️🙏🏻
While it is true that we can't make a deal with God to receive blessings from Him, scripturally there are many blessings that God offers that can *only* be received through our obedience and faith in Him, not just grace.

God is not a God of "Quid Pro Quo.".Please forgive me, and I don't mean to offend anyone. But that sounds so "Catholic." We are "saved by grace through faith." Not works (lest any man should boast). God tries every "believers" mettle (or faith) through the fire, to see what your faith is made of. We truly were created with FREE-WILL to choose this or that. Because in the end, when judgment day comes NO ONE will be able to point the finger of blame at God. No one!
God doesn't send anyone to hell. We send ourselves to hell with the choices we make. However, you must study the word to know the truth and the truth shall make you FREE. Your faith will be tried through fiery trials. What path you choose to take during that trial proves where your faith lies and who you are (whether your mettle is gold, stubble or cheap electroplate).
It's simple: You either make decisions based on the dictates of FLESH (Fear, Lust, Ignorance) or you make decisions based on the dictates of SPIRIT (Faith, Knowledge, Wisdom, and Repentance). It's that simple.
But irrespective of the scenario of the trial, the choice always remains YOURS. We're not automatons. So please don't blame God for the choices you make when your life turns out to be NOT what you wanted.
We're free moral agents. We are God's offspring. The choice was always yours.
Lastly, God cares more about your personal relationship with Him first before any temporal, fleshly pleasure you may ask for or want. That's why the first commandment is "Thou shall have NO other gods before me" speaking of Himself. The Alpha and the Omega, the beginning and the end, the first and the last. He is omniscient (all-knowing), omnipresent (everywhere at once) and omnipotent (all-powerful).
If you're ever going to fear something. Fear God. Not man.

Philippians 2:12-13 is helpful to consider
Catholic here. Yeah, that’s a misconception toward Catholicism.
@@johndrey32 Enlighten us.
It’s always Christians insulting Catholics! Do not do that and don’t spew things that aren’t completely true. Catholics are main priority is God and our faith secondly yes helping out thy neighbor when in need and not turn your back on them. Only help from the kindness of your heart not just because you want to boast(big no no).
"... Be doers of the word, and not hearers only, deceiving yourselves. For if anyone is a hearer of the word and not a doer, he is like a man observing his natural face in a mirror; for he observes himself, goes away and immediately forgets what kind of man he was. But he who looks into the perfect law of liberty and continues in it, and is not a forgetful hearer but a doer of the work, this one will be blessed in what he does (James 1:22 - 25 NKJV)."
(i.e. Don't just "talk the talk" so to speak. "Walk the walk.)"
Amen
Thank you. I need this.
God bless!
Fantastic video my man. #1 hit home...
Recently God told me to press on to my goal from Phillipians 3. And that goal is moving out. I have been listening to Satan more than God. I've been so distracted with finding a relationship, when God is calling me to move to Florida. I know God has someone out there for me, but maybe he's not here where I currently live. But I wonder if there are any signs God is telling you to move out. Any signs you guys have when he's telling you to move out?
