For those of us who were not allowed to know our earthly father because of a decision made by our other parent & who grow up with that void father concept (no provision, protection, affection, identity, etc.) - it is unavoidable that we can have the hardest time relating to God as Father. It takes real, deep, penetrating Holy Spirit intervention to heal our souls. Going to church doesn't necessarily help because of our vulnerabilities that can get picked up on and, unfortunately, weaponized (personal experience, I know that doesn't happen to everyone).
This is so brilliant Mark that I'm speechless. I started looking at yur videos to overcome OCD but what I'm finding and needing is so so much more...the problem isn't the problem. Thankyou ABBA father for my brother Mark. Thankyou ABBA for you. I love you Father.
Life changing message for me. Thank you so much for sharing. I have listened to this more times then I can count. I don't approach God because I think I somehow have to fix myself or my heart to be good enough. It makes no rational sense because I'll never be good enough. That's why we needed Jesus. But it's so hard to shake. I think I'm just too sinful. It's such a relief to have found your website and TH-cam page because it's what my soul has needed to hear and learn for so long.
This is exactly what I needed to hear! I have been going through a deep sanctification process and searching for the Father's love. This is so good, thank you for sharing this. We're overseas and it's hard not being spiritually fed, so thankful for online sermons like this!
Wow, I love what you say. Yet every nerve, fibre and my hair on my body are standing on edge. I was adopted, at four weeks after spending four weeks between being taken off my birth mum. (Who was given a death certificate for me) After she had tried to take my life 3 times because her father, my maternal grandfather had raped and beaten her when she was 6 maths pregnant. I was born blue and had sepsis. I didn't cry for the first five years of my life. (I still struggle with this at 61) Then I was adopted and was ignored due to one of the foster kids had croup. I was a great baby because I didn't need attention. I was then sexually abused by foster brothers, became a slave of these kids and second mother in the house at age 7. My adopted father loved me felt I was special until I was 6 then beat me because a boy kissed me. I was no longer pure in his eyes. I had been unsure due to what a brother was doing to me. I should accept adoption as I was chosen and these poor scarred foster kids needed love, discipline and a home. As you can imagine being adopted into God's family seemed at 16 like heaven. Yet the guy who took me to the meeting aged 24 took me home and "made love to me" I still struggle with adoption and the love of the father. I've been in churches for 45 years and constantly have been told just give it to Jesus.,pray more, when married to an abusive ma, your not serving and servicing properly. Yet I've always been in ministry, because I'm practice, capable and willing. Inside, I'm alone, broken and. Not good with relationships. Sorry to vent. My point is thank you I am finally getting why.
@@marktdejesus Why do so many Christian leaders insist on using that horrible word which describes what was found in the devil?!? I'd rather know God is PLEASED with me than PROUD of me. 🙂
@@capridillon Nitpick?!?!? In Proverbs 8:13 Wisdom says, "I HATE PRIDE..." If Wisdom says "I hate pride" I'm not gonna start arguing! I'm good with that. 😀

Thank you for the adoption illustration.

I was just having a spin attack and as I was praying I kept thinking of watching a Mark video!

I have been so blessed from listening to your video. It gives me a sense of peace knowing that I’m a child of the Father.

No offence Mark, but God was not "proud" of Jesus; He was "pleased" with him. There are light years of difference! 😀
"I'm proud of you" is just a modern saying that says something similar.

Why do we have to "nitpick" everything???
