Always respect yourself. Reasons to go no matter what you believe: 1. No reciprocity 2. No communication/emotional unavailability 3. No commitment 4. Lack of faithfulness / trust 5. Abuse-including overt or covert narcissism
"Just because you get confused about your future with someone does not mean God is telling you to move on. Sometimes you just need to hang in there. Sometimes you need to live in a confussion for a while. Sometimes Lord is using this trial to build your character."
@@mschurchgirl16 yes he isn't but he uses situations to teach us a lesson to make you stronger. I've been getting to know a guy for a couple of months and we started of really well but then things backed down a little and he isn't as chatty as before and it confused me so I told him about it and said if you're feeling its not working out just tell me. And he said no its nothing like that you're reading it all wrong... I think he may have felt he came on to strong at first and now he's trying to back off because he thinks he will scare me off... so I'm waiting and praying on it.... this guy is everything I asked God for so I'm putting my faith on God and praying about it.
There is this girl I love and she loves me to but one problem she lives in new York and I live in California and we facetime and talk a lot and I pray to God that I wanna be with her forever and ever and ik its ganna take a long time cuz we both still have to go to college for 4 years but I pray we can be together after college and it will be worth the wait
Both people have to be willing to work it out though. Can’t be one sided. If he’s not willing to talk and work it out or if she’s not willing to talk or work it out. It will not work. Needs to be two sided
I totally agree. I would ask for stuff to improve our relationship and he just ignored me. Also did not pay me back the money he owed me. Adios ....bye bye. Don't look back either.
I was just crying to God asking God why can’t I move on. I was telling God to get rid of this person out of my mind so I could focus on God only.I was so confuse and told myself I need to move on
Godly Ears “But know that the Lord hath set apart him that is godly for himself: the Lord will hear when I call unto him.” Psalms 4:3 KJV “For thou, Lord, wilt bless the righteous; with favour wilt thou compass him as with a shield.” Psalms 5:12 KJV
So would this included constantly thinking of someone and seeing their name everywhere or hearing it on tv or radio. Is that God doing that? If so why?
my girlfriend and I went through that gray area phase. It was ROUGH to say the least and definitely wouldn't suggest people go through that. It started with us being unequally yoked. God confirmed over and over again that this relationship was and is part of His perfect will. We both believe, but I'm a good bit further along in my walk than she is. Anywhoo, we're doing soooo much better now. She came from a background of abuse and I came from a background of inexperience. She got her sign that she worked out with God and I've had my confirmation action for a while. Folks relationships aren't all fun and games. They take work and focus. Be diligent and spiritually sensitive to the movements of God and you'll be just fine. Ohh and talk to other mature believers about it as well. If I didn't do that and just did it alone then I would probably be in a very different place right now.
God has shown me red flags for years. I’m leaving an unhealthy relationship . I’ve heard God say do not be yoked with an unbeliever. I’m listening not rebelling and moving on. He promised marriage and I do not want to live in sin any longer 🙏❤️ Thank you Mark 🙏🙏🙏🙏🙏
ApplyGodsWord.com/Mark Ballenger AND He will bless you with a great and wonderfully unexpected relationship culminating in marriage, but you have to be solidly behind God first. He provided for everyone, but the time comes we must all bear our own Christ-led cross. Think about this....
@@jennieappleton1161 yes Jennie I give this link to people. I'd encourage you to pray thru it a few times in regards to anyone you have been with sexually or had intense emotional connections with. Also you can pray thru is in regards to relationships with parents. Not all soul ties are bad but some are. wildatheart.org/prayer/breaking-soul-ties-rh-podcast
Michael Oates Thank you Michael for the fast response and for the link, much appreciated! This soul tie has been going on for 11 years and I feel I’ve finally reached my limit since this person has not changed and just keeps repeating the same routine/patterns/treatment towards me. I know I deserve better, so hopefully this will help me.
@@jennieappleton1161 you are welcome ny sister. That is along time to deal with such things. Let me know if you want additional input. Youcanbeconfident@gmail.com
About a year ago after cutting ties with someone i prayed almost everyday that if this man wasn't for me please let me stop loving him and till this day no matter how i try to force myself to move on i can't
I know deep down in my head and soul that meeting her was not a mistake, and I know God has lead me to her. We may not be together now, but once we have grown and matured in the grace of God, then we will be together again because I know we are meant to be, and I hope God will continue to bless her life and bring spiritual healing unto her so that when we are together again, we will never break apart because I know this break up was God's will to make me realise something and focus on my studies and wait
My boyfriend got sick and was in the hospital and he got out he found out he has cancer we where going to get married and live together then he got sick and I told him that I will like to come and stay with him so I can help him he said not till he get better have not heard from him for one month now .I really do love him hope that God could sofe in his heart and bring him back to me soon .miss him alot feeling sad cause I don't know what's going on with him he is keeping me in the dark with please pray for both of us thank you Jesus 🙏 amen
Margarita Montoya I had cancer back in 2006. I also pushed the man I loved away because I was afraid he wouldn’t be able to handle the horrible reality of cancer. What I truly wanted was for Him to choose to stay and fight with me. I would suggest you go see him ASAP. Tell him you love him and you want to fight this disease right by his side. May Almighty God bless you both with love, light and healing 🙏🏼💖✨
I rebuke every evil spirit and principality that has tried to encounter your life. I cover you in the Blood of Jesus and declare NO WEAPON FORGED AGAINST YOU WILL PROSPER! I speak peace over you and your entire household. God is with you my brother 🙏🏽❤️ Be blessed! And watch your gates (eyes, ears, and heart) Don’t give any place to the enemy 😉 @andreramirez
I pray all of you move closer to god and never forget that the love he has for you is unconditional. He makes no mistakes. Work on yourself. Learn your self worth, and if this person comes back it’s because god let it happen, if not then he has something even better for you. Stay blessed.
Delight yourself in God and He will give you the desires of your heart And Believe God He does and so much more Thanks Mark for the work you do God bless you always!
My fiance and I are in a relationship for 8 years and a half and we are both believers. I kept asking God if it is not his will end it and he never did. So we are going to be happily married next month 🙂
Dear God, I feel my spirit jumping right now. I receive this message and I am praying for healing from fears and insecurities 🙏🏾🙏🏾. I have to live in the confusion and be patient
@D Frazier I believe I am only confused because I am trying too hard to understand what God is doing instead of allowing God to do what he does best and lead me towards his righteousness. The path is something new for me and what is new I fear and try to analyze every single step. But I must be patient and resilient in this process. We each have our own journey. Glory be to the most High and peace be with you 🙏🏾🙏🏾
I've tried moving on from someone so many times. Dated other men, he other women. We've never been able to get each other out of our thoughts and lives; always staying in contact. He is so calming and helps bring calmness to my mind and life. I've known him for 18 years and he just moved back to the city we met and where my daughter's father lives. I believe God is keeping him in my life for a reason.
All praise to the Most High! God bless everyone and I pray you all feel and receive Gods peace and love as your read this. I really appreciate this and needed this. I ask that you all pray for me and my relationship we have been through many trials but I believe God has placed us together for a Kingdom marriage. Please join me in prayer! Thank you all. God bless and much love!
jade nelson blessings & strength to you & your mate! I speak victory over the union & know it’ll be great. I’m dealing with my own storm in my relationship & pray he comes back to me, I’ve forgiven him, I pray God restores our relationship, yet I sent this prayer 🙏🏽 to you, your comment touched me. Many blessings & prayers
The ups and down is what makes us run away from maturing in a relationship that is starting. That’s how we grow and mature if we don’t give but also don’t wait until is too late to end that relationship that is causing pains and sorrow. But i think when you are with God you will know if you have to give up and end the relationship, if we diligently seek him. God bless for this video, 🙏🏼❣️💜
I feel this applies to my situation. My bf and I had no problems, didn’t really fight, no cheating, 100% trust. Then he moved long distance and the break up caught me off guard. Saying that “he wants me to experience my youth, to live life, and so that we can learn to love ourselves and that we can try again in the future” We are still close and we haven’t fought or argued, we last laughed and he gave me a bunch of advice on how I need to love myself and learn myself so that I can be complete in myself He challenged the way I’ve been living my life and I’ve been getting signs from the universe and my gut and intuition says that we’re going to be okay. We’re in a grey area where Idk how he’s really feeling or what will happen. But I see signs everywhere 222, 1010, 888, 333,444, etc. and things telling me not to move on. I guess this is my sign.
#1 - hit me right between the eyes! Very wise words! I have been wrestling with fear that past toxic relationships have left their mark. I have done personal work and healing, and knew that if/when I got back to dating there would be more layers to the healing. Trusting God and taking the risk to be vulnerable about my fears with the person I've started dating. God has really had his hand in things!
I’ve been praying for the past couple days that God show me if I’m suppose to be with this certain person, I’m scared and really insecure about myself, wondering if I’ll be the right woman for him and I’m always scared to say the wrong thing and I get very nervous around him, I’ve never been in a godly relationship. Please pray for me!
I'm in the same situation! But what I'm most worried about is that he lives in a different state and I'm afraid of the distance. Will be praying for you 🙏 God Bless
This is good... I especially love #3 I believe God’s best will help propel us into who He calls us to be. However, it does not always feel good to be challenged so its tempting to run. I often ask men, you say you want a helpmeet but do you truly want the help? As a woman of God, I know I am called to HELP my future husband be better. But he has to be willing to accept the help :)
Ms. J. They always say yes. A guy I dated years ago, he said yes but his actions showed different. He seemed to not be able accept simple suggestions and even messages/sermons I sent he’d say “That doesn’t apply to me”. And like Joyful said above, if he resists thats indicative that he’s not the right man.
Ms. J. I’ve heard some men their wives play a big role in who they are today. I love to hear men talk about the favor they obtained once they found their good thing ☺️
Wow, this came in perfect timing. I have a crush on this guy but he has a girlfriend and I told him via message before I knew. He never responded but I apologized and wished him well and hope he’s happy. It’s been months but I’m happy and I feel content. If we’re meant to be well find each other, but if not, I know the lord is going to take care of me ❤️
Don't bank on him breaking up with his current girlfriend. His silence to your text was a good thing. God will drop you someone who is devoted to you as he is to his current partner. Don't settle for crumbs when you have a great piece coming ☺
I know exactly how you feel. I met a guy at an old job who i truly felt was my husband. He felt the connection as well but had a girlfriend. I’ve been praying for him lately since I’ve given myself over to God. Who knows?
God’s timing is so perfect! This video couldn’t have come at a better time! I’m literally feeling fear so much these days in the relationship I’m in currently and this is exactly what I’m going through now. I’m literally moving 4000 miles away tomorrow indefinitely...wow! Thanks Mark for this. I am a person who runs away from the gray area and I’m on that now. I know without a doubt now, after seeing this, that God’s Got This!! Praise God I’m in this struggle now. What growth is to come from this is something I can’t wait for!
We just broke up earlier today. Both of our mothers keep telling me “the dust needs to settle. You guys have too much going on.” We meet at these areas but I’m kinda relieved we split up. It’s all based on emotions right now. Don’t get me wrong, I’m sad but not falling apart. It’s in Gods hands. He claims to love God but I don’t see it.
Lord, I believe. I can't see the future, and honestly I'm freaked out. Yet you are good, and nothing can stop you. Not my will but your will. You can see the small gap in my heart, and I believe that you will fill that gap, and add the best finishing touch with the love of my life. I love you, because you first loved me, and I love her, because you taught me how to love. Give me the strength to believe everyday, and give thanks every night. In Jesus's name I call out and pray, Amen.
When the gray area has been too many frustrating and annoyingly confusing years with absolutely no clarity nor communication? Forget it. Seriously can't wait to meet the person that makes all the jerk people of my past extremely easy to forget and move on from... Someone who understands what COMPETENCE means in communication and actions.
Incredible. Thanks Mark. I've been binge watching your channel over the last few mornings after work (I work nights) I'm SO encouraged right now. Thank you for posting and edifying! Blessings to you, your family and ministry🙏🏿
This was a very informative and helpful video. Thank you Mark for making this video. This video completely just described my situation with my girl. I just overcame trust issues and jealousy within myself because my girl asked to have some space because my insecurities was getting the best of the relationship and it was causing a big problem. So because of her taking that space from me.....it made me wake up ! and realize that I had a problem and I needed to get it fixed. It brought me closer to God through praying and I also did family interventions and self-improvement videos. I took the proper steps to better myself and get rid of the trust issues and the jealousy issues within this relationship. I have actually grown and I have became a better man because of this relationship cuz it showed me the error of my ways and the problems that I had. I thank God for her and for waking me up to see that i had a serious problem that i was dragging from relationship to relationship and it was time to STOP ! Acknowledge it and get help to fix it ! Thank you father God for changing me 🙏🙏🙏
I've already lost out, am only seeing this today when my fears popped in months away following past wounds. Lesson learnt. Please pray for me that God gives me a second chance 😔
Phew, I really needed this. I have been considering breaking off my relationship with one of the closest people in my life solely because of my insecurities and not feeling like I was enough. Only God can determine that I am enough for this relationship, and if He says that I am then I should accept that and believe it.
You are more than enough Katrina ! You are a precious child of our Heavenly Father !! Trust God to give you the peace that surpasses ALL understanding. God bless you ✝️🙏❤
Amen, God bless you Mark. I have been praying for a sign for the past two days, and he answered me may his name be praised and glorified forever and ever.
Wow! True Love requires True Risk! Love that statement! Have no thoughts of moving "on" FROM this person..only moving "TO" this person! But it is nice to reconfirm in my mind that his faults do not matter in the slightest to me. Because we all have them. Great message! And love the iron sharpens iron. I would get So bored if he did not challenge me in some way!💕🤗🙏 No woman wants a doormat for a husband. And I doubt any Christian man wants that in a wife.
Thank you for the great tips, Mark. It may be that you can stay with someone, or renew a relationship with whom you love, as long as you have an equal degree of dignity to efficiently ground that love. In other words, however much love you have for a person, you must have an equal amount of personal dignity, in order to maintain a healthy relationship with them. True love is unconditional. Tho, relationships are not. God, along with your own sense of dignity, will teach you how to best determine sufficient, effective boundaries for your relationships.
@@ApplyGodsWordcomMarkBallenger what if that person was in a cult, should I have been waiting until that person realises that where we were was not Christianity but a cult, beside that belief we were perfect match I left her because I couldn't stand to support a crazy Korean sect but she was a very good person.. sadly it happened.
At the moment, but you’re shadow work and prayer can get you ready hun. 🙏🏾🙏🏾🙏🏾 I’ve been married before and I’m healing and working so that my next marriage will be my last. Healing and working through issues within myself. God and I talk all the time.
weenieboys 2 Inner healing ... digging deeply to work on childhood wounds and learn your tiggers. It’s really cleansing but I have a therapist and between them, it has been a lot of progression. Trying to date after a divorce is challenging trying to not being old baggage into my new relationship...
@@crownedmelaninqueen Thank you! I thought "shadow work" was a new age thing. I know what you are talking about I would just use a different term. Prayed for you!
Mark, I can't express how timely this video is in my current situation!!! I've been seeking the Lord's will on this very topic over the last couple of days, and your video has helped me. Thank you!
Thanks for sharing this. I always try to keep an open mind when dating. But I realized that in the dating process I am either not "Christian enough" or not being "not worldly enough" by that my mean out going or social. My relationships always end during the Grey period and I am often left wondering what I did wrong. As it usually takes me longer to move on. I like the perspective here and hope God willing I meet someone who is willing to go the long haul. 🙏
Worldly doesn’t mean social or out going. Those are personality traits. Worldly means sinful . ☺️ there is nothing wrong with being out going or social, it’s all what you do with it.
@@way2girly Lol. I know what worldly means. Not trying to trying to incite judgement. What I meant by outgoing and social was in terms of Drinking. I don't believe in judging people because I am not God. Thank you for your insightful comment.
When I’ve been asking god for a sign if I should contact this guy I stopped talking to or meet new men but you don’t know if this is a sign or a coincidence...God you know I’m dumb please give me a bigger sign please 😭
There are no coincidences, if that helps lol. You have to pray for discernment and His hand to guide you. The devil plays tricks, our emotions are fickle and can't be trusted..... you have to lean in to God. Trust me lol. I pray that you will be richly blessed with wisdom and guidance.
I met the most amazing, and Godly women. We started to fall in love and it became intense. All of our unhealed wounds and insecurities came to the surface. Her trauma and past kept surfacing, and she became overwhelmed and ended the relationship. We both talked about this being best for now, and how close we felt to God and each other, in spirit. We want the best for each other, but she needed to do this for herself. I have conflicted feelings about what to do. I don't know if I should give up on her, or continue praying for her and our relationship reuniting in the future. I love her, but her fears and past forced her to give up on us, at least for now. There's no confirmation that we'll be together in the future, but my heart and soul feels bonded to her and doesn't want to give up. If you guys could please pray for me, this has been the hardest situation ever. She needs time to work on herself and find happiness without me, and heal her trauma and wounds. I love her unconditionally, but it feels painful to sit here and wait without knowing if she'll ever come around. Please help guide me what to do, Lord. I love this woman, and only want the best for her.
Well I just ended up a relationship with someone who didnt have the same belief as me, it was heartbreaking cause my soul was tied to him. While being in that relationship I was already caught in confusion with God but I asked the Lord for strength to let go of him.
How do you know if God is separating people to then bring them back Idk how to explain it but how do you know if God is separating you from someone so that y’all can become more spiritually mature or mature period
I’m going through that right now lol I needed to see this comment I’m confused about a long term ex i got so over him but sometimes a lot of things make sense idk if he’ll bring us back together it’s like I’m over him but still love him he’s the only one who knows me it’s confusing
I think honestly, you don't. And I do not think it is healthy to be obsess with them returning. The only thing you can do is pray and lean on God, ask for clarity, and He will shows you the sign.
@@sophialucianamarielove8520 same here! This man has been popping in my mind randomly lately even though I haven't spoken to him for 6 years and it's driving me nuts so I figured it wouldn't hurt to pray. Keep doing what you need to do and God will show you the way. :)
@@elissamiller8374 yes ma’am I’m going through a session where a guy keeps popping into my mind again and I’m over here like now I know I moved on so what’s this
Thank you I needed to hear this. God Bless everyone who found this video and needed it too I send u understanding, patience, and love to your current situations.
Omg this is what I have been going through the entire week. We really like each other and learning to know one another. Because of my insecurities and feeling as though he controls me by pushing me to do the best in life, I pushed him away with my words.
Totally just prayed to God for some answers, whether I should just let go and move on because it has been hard. We took a break but decided to just see how things are and be friends for now. But, there are still some issues on both ends. We are definitely in a state of confusion and a lot of unknowns. I'm just going to keep praying and just be with God throughout these painful and stressful time. Because I still am so confused about what the right thing to do is. But, I can see that my heart is changing for the better, my old ways are changing, and I am trusting God more with my situations. I have been spending a lot more time with Him throughout my difficulties in life and I'm here just ready to listen and obey what God wants me to do. Thank you for your videos also! They have been helpful with my situation right now!
I couldn't move on from a relationship so I held on till now and now that I've watched this video it has really given me a reason why can't I move on and why I felt like just hanging on. This video has been helpful to me. Thank you so much.
Oh wow, perfect timing for seeing this video... :O I just realized that my own fears are the ones who want to move on... Big sign this recommendation today for me... Thank you!
Hi Mark, this is nothing short of an answer from “GOD”, Every time that I ask “GOD” to show me , or give me confirmation about a matter, that I need an answer to, clearly he speaks through the word, and then through you. I thank “GOD” for being in my life, I thank “GOD” for his never changing word, and I thank “GOD” for speaking through you, each and every time. “GOD BLESS YOU”, and the work that you.
Wow! It’s apparent Ireally needed to hear this or I wouldn’t have received it. God was listening to my heart and thoughts why he sent it. God you’re always on time guiding me to think before I do or not to. As always I’m thankful for my blessings you’ve given and your guidance. I’m so appreciative. Also, thank you Mark for the message. Blessings!🙏🏽✨💐🎶
I just cut someone loose not because of my fears but because he was right off the bat disrespectful towards me and felt he had to explain his superiority to me. I liked him initially until he revealed his true colors. I didn’t run, I let him go.
Been struggling with some confusion/tension lately and this was definitely what I needed to hear. I said in the beginning there would be confusing times. And I knew I would have fears. I need to trust God to guide us through this time, especially working with the weirdness of the world now. Trials are what bring us closer together. A relationship isnt defined by the presence/absence of conflict, but rather by how that conflict is handled.
This seemed to pop up at the right time... I’m going through this season of a breakup with my ex and we’re going to meet in a month to see where our headspace is at because ever since we met she said she felt like her relationship with God was growing stronger and she’s realizing that she never dealt with these emotions and needed to work on her and God alone... I want to move on and I want to just forget her, but I felt God tell me to stay in this vulnerable spot because it can make me grow in ways I can’t even imagine right now. For better or for worse in the moment I ask for prayers in this situation to not give up hope and to trust God with everything!
@@Crybabycry884 she said she’d like to work on us and went back to her ex. So she lied and is now married to her ex.. but it is what is, no hard feelings at least now lol. Back then I was so angry but it’s for the best in hindsight, being single is much easier for me at this age to work on myself.
That second one, I feel like the LORD is building me up during this trial. I was telling a friend the other day I believe these times for me are for the LORD to build things into me that can't be built in another way and He wants my undivided attention during this time.
I told my GF that I needed a break and several questions answered about us and what we could become. In the following days this video pops up in my feed, imagine that. God has some amazing timing and a purpose for us all. I hope her and I can iron some bugs out and with this video, I now have the courage and clear mind to do it. The first sign related to me and her the most and it's completely true as well.
This video is the answer in one of the videos that you posted sir related to how to move on from someone and i left a comment about that video..i decided to move on to that person because of the circumstances that we faced from no communication to trust issues. But when i saw this video i realized that God has a purpose when i met this person.. and i always continue to watch your videos because of the lessons that God teaches us and you're one of God's instruments. 😊😊😊
I have never seen and heard anybody's wisdom about why to NOT move on with the person in your relationship quite like yours. The reasons concerning confusion, wounds, and insecurities are so valid and I feel more motivated to hang in there. On April 10, 2022, I was set on this path of getting to know somebody absolutely special to me. She is a wonderful young lady and it is a privilege to have her in my life during that time. We are currently in a season where I would be convinced to move on and call it quits, but those 3 reasons each resonate with and I will do whatever it takes to hold on.
theres a girl ive known for over 10 years now, we "talked 8th-9th grade and then she was dealing with her relationship with god and ended things with me and I went downhill, not horrible but got into a different relationship, fell into addiction, and then when that relationship ended, that original girl and I immediately came close again, not talking but friends. and while I thought she was attractive and she is most definitely a devout daughter of christ, I thought about how mad and angry u got about things ending and spiraled downward and it made me feel unsuitable for her. We stayed friends but I got with a different girl who was great but that girl pursued me so much and I felt unsure but dated her anyways, and well, my life turned upside down, and a lot of crap happened and on top of that things ended and well we each grew way more in the 2 months we've been broken up. Now recently, that original girl, the one I had a crush on since we were little kids, who even when I was in a relationship with someone else, I was still so comfortable with her, and recently we are just sort of having moments and opportunities to hang and we've been around each other and we just recently graduated and are kind of starting the next sections of life soon. ive suddenly just been in more communication with her a bit more and just having special times with her in groups. Theres a lot in my life, I need prayer and guidance, but does anyone maybe think that this is gods way of showing that maybe her and I could be a match? She doesnt pursue me like an insecure girl, she has her problems that she is actually working out and growing in and even back 4-5 years ago, she was an inspiration for me to keep growing and coming to church when things were dry for me. Idk, she's special, she's got something about her, and we have some connection that I wonder, is this maybe gonna go somewhere? im down for that lol, I just dont know. I want gods will, not my own, but if this is his plan, and his timing is here, im down for it. I want him to paint the picture now, not me.
No matter how many times my ex told he he loved me, no matter how many times he told me he wanted to be with me, he was still spending time with ex girlfriends, and his married coworker, and maintained emotional connections with them. He wouldn’t let me meet them- except for spending Easter Sunday with the coworker and her husband. He talked about his coworker often, but never about his other coworkers. I broke off our relationship, but within weeks, he got into a relationship with his coworker, she left her husband and now she and my ex are married. I was right to pay attention to my fears... he was showing me who he was and I had to move on, and then I learned about narcissistic abuse, which in hindsight, matched up with my ex’s behavior.. This was definitely God telling me to run and not just walk away from this man. There’s a reason for everything! 🙏
The timing, I’ve been in close contact with God recently, and it’s pretty incredible this video just popped up for me in my life at this moment. Thank you ❤️
Omg ! That part of iron sharpens iron was told to me by the guy I was talking to yesterday. 😳 my response was I didn’t want to be ironed out because sparks might ignite a fire and instead I wanted a loving n more romantic guy . The lord has def confirmed this guy is for me . I will def need prayers plz because today I messed up with this guy really bad n told him I wanted nothing with him ! 🙏🏻
Amen, I can't believe this video was posted last night when I watched it this morning. I am living in confusion, I was with my ex for 8 months and we have now been separated for 8 months. We both loved each other but had trust issues and I went away to college and fell prey because I wasn't strong enough in the lord... I prayed to God what I should do cause now I'm talking to another girl to try and move on but the other day my ex unblocked me so I followed her last night. I still don't know what he wants for me but I like what you said how Iron sharpens Iron.... I feel like we both make each other better people but It came at a price.. It has been really painful and had so many ups and downs.
I like this, it really helps. Most Christian dating advice says once there is confusion its not of God and it should end asap what if all this happened but the person ended it anyway? Move on? or pray about it?
Once again, like with me and other people, this video seems to come at the right time according to my current situation with a girl I like at work who likes talking at work, but is kind of distant/flaky outside of work. But maybe things will finally change now? I felt like giving up on a coworker I like during this month and even tried following a "no contact" plan for the month based on someone's (worldly?) advice to try to move on or see if she actually misses me. And also to focus on improving myself and growing closer to God. Her reworked schedule made my plan easier, which was that her days off were on my work days. And I stayed off Facebook most of the time. And I was currently helping out at another location of work at the same time for a few weeks. Once they stopped needing my help, my manager at my main location offered me extra work days, which I have wanted for some time. On the other hand, I knew I would be forced to confront that coworker, and it would be pretty stupid to say no to that offer for extra work and money. On the plus side, because of her hours and mine put together, we would actually be able to have 30 minute "lunch dates" regularly now which used to be very rare for some time. Me and her mainly got to talk on her 10 minute breaks or when she used to come in early when I got off work, which of course doesn't really allow much time for deep, meaningful conversations. The time that I finish work and the time when she's supposed to have her lunch break are around the same time now once a week. Is this a coincidence? Almost as if God was saying "No, I am not going to separate you two. It's time for you two to start spending more time together and really get to understand one another, especially after your experiences all year." Once again, every time I want to give up on her, something happens that shows I shouldn't give up yet. Maybe she will finally start to get to know me better? Maybe she'll want to start talking more outside of work? Some people have told me to give up on her, others say to keep holding on and have faith. And it doesn't help that when I try moving on, I have to put up with certain temptations. I know it's a long message, but I would like some insight on this. I wanted to give up, but still had a little faith that maybe God could still make something happen. I hope that me and her do finally connect and she has her eyes opened, since we have a lot in common with our interests and how we see the world. Our talks do get kind of deep and interesting when we actually get time to talk.
@@hanahdoleyhanahlll In that you keep wanting to give up on someone you have feelings for, yet it seems like you keep getting opportunities and reasons to not give up?
@@Dj.D25 yes it's happening several time with me nd this day I already put out her from me, then I popup with this video nd ur cmmnt make me no you don't do that's,
@@Dj.D25 maybe she just don't know how to handle this situation. How to make it clear for the guy in most caring way that you really aren't interested in him?
Bcuz of fear, faults and confusion I let him go and now I’m facing rejections from other men. I fasted and prayed for 3days to get Devine understanding on my decision 😞😞
Wow! Thank you! I needed to see this because I didn’t know whether I need to move on or not move on’ sometimes people say GOD says “let go”but “not to move on” so this is good teaching ...
I keep holding on because something just didn't sit right with me when we broke up. He just didn't seem as though he really wanted it. I just have this feeling deep down inside that he's the one and I shouldn't move on. I feel like I am the one that is supposed to bring him closer to God. However, holding on, is absolutely crushing me. Besides this video popping up, I'm praying that the answer will be clear
I’m wondering if this applies to relationships that are not romantic. I’m really struggling to maintain a relationship with a loved one right now. I want to run away so I can say. “Wow I feel so much better.” But then I won’t have my loved one in my life.
The fact that this got recommended to me is a sign in itself.
I promise.
Same here
I concede.
Same here, I have been waiting on a sign for 6 years...
BRUH. I haven't been recommended a video like this EVER.
Same here

Always respect yourself.
Reasons to go no matter what you believe:
1. No reciprocity
2. No communication/emotional unavailability
3. No commitment
4. Lack of faithfulness / trust
5. Abuse-including overt or covert narcissism
Yes! 👐
Emotional unavailability is the reason why i moved on
Yes love and kindness should be given in equal measures.
He abused me even though I thought he was my soulmate. I am really drained and don’t believe in love anymore.
@@Sona77. same reasons I cut ties.
"Just because you get confused about your future with someone does not mean God is telling you to move on. Sometimes you just need to hang in there. Sometimes you need to live in a confussion for a while. Sometimes Lord is using this trial to build your character."
RoseInTheHeather ...But God is not an author of confusion
O godd this motivated me babe 💜💙❤
@@mschurchgirl16 yes he isn't but he uses situations to teach us a lesson to make you stronger. I've been getting to know a guy for a couple of months and we started of really well but then things backed down a little and he isn't as chatty as before and it confused me so I told him about it and said if you're feeling its not working out just tell me. And he said no its nothing like that you're reading it all wrong... I think he may have felt he came on to strong at first and now he's trying to back off because he thinks he will scare me off... so I'm waiting and praying on it.... this guy is everything I asked God for so I'm putting my faith on God and praying about it.
I related with that part so much
@@Musterdseed87755 this helped me thank u
Man I really miss her but if it's meant to be GOD will bring us back together one day🙏🙌
Same for me bro🤍
True!! waiting for same.
Same Brother!
There is this girl I love and she loves me to but one problem she lives in new York and I live in California and we facetime and talk a lot and I pray to God that I wanna be with her forever and ever and ik its ganna take a long time cuz we both still have to go to college for 4 years but I pray we can be together after college and it will be worth the wait
@@jefferymakarounas2655 I hope you guys get married to bro if praying and communicating it will happen.
Both people have to be willing to work it out though. Can’t be one sided. If he’s not willing to talk and work it out or if she’s not willing to talk or work it out. It will not work. Needs to be two sided
I totally agree. I would ask for stuff to improve our relationship and he just ignored me. Also did not pay me back the money he owed me. Adios ....bye bye. Don't look back either.
@@sharlottewilcox3960 Omg I'm so going through that right now. I feel better if I'm single. It's too toxic.
I was just crying to God asking God why can’t I move on. I was telling God to get rid of this person out of my mind so I could focus on God only.I was so confuse and told myself I need to move on
Godly Ears “But know that the Lord hath set apart him that is godly for himself: the Lord will hear when I call unto him.” Psalms 4:3 KJV
“For thou, Lord, wilt bless the righteous; with favour wilt thou compass him as with a shield.” Psalms 5:12 KJV
RoxStar09 thank you😊
So would this included constantly thinking of someone and seeing their name everywhere or hearing it on tv or radio. Is that God doing that? If so why?
Michele Angel that’s not the case for me,sorry I couldn’t answer your question
Michele Angel because it might be because your mind is really focus on that person so everytime you hear their names you are alerted 🤔😏
my girlfriend and I went through that gray area phase. It was ROUGH to say the least and definitely wouldn't suggest people go through that. It started with us being unequally yoked. God confirmed over and over again that this relationship was and is part of His perfect will. We both believe, but I'm a good bit further along in my walk than she is. Anywhoo, we're doing soooo much better now. She came from a background of abuse and I came from a background of inexperience. She got her sign that she worked out with God and I've had my confirmation action for a while. Folks relationships aren't all fun and games. They take work and focus. Be diligent and spiritually sensitive to the movements of God and you'll be just fine. Ohh and talk to other mature believers about it as well. If I didn't do that and just did it alone then I would probably be in a very different place right now.
Did y’all ever break up?
The timing is...is just divine
His videos ALWAYS are. It's freakin reMARKable! 🙂😐
Amen 🙌🏻🙏🏻
Amen
Yes it is.

Sign 1: this video popped up on your recommendation
I was looking for this so it doesn’t count for me. I clinging on to hope as much as possible, and looking for these signs.
I asked God for a sign last night about this matter. Then I woke up to this. Voila.
Isnt god good?
@@nymphohalo He is always and forever Good. Before waking up I actually dreamed of the guy.
God bless as you follow the Lord!
Nica Abian I wish god would do that for me. Your so blessed, god bless, love 💗
We're exactly the same...
God has shown me red flags for years. I’m leaving an unhealthy relationship . I’ve heard God say do not be yoked with an unbeliever. I’m listening not rebelling and moving on. He promised marriage and I do not want to live in sin any longer 🙏❤️ Thank you Mark 🙏🙏🙏🙏🙏
Amen! Obey the Lord and he will guide you into his will!
ApplyGodsWord.com/Mark Ballenger AND He will bless you with a great and wonderfully unexpected relationship culminating in marriage, but you have to be solidly behind God first. He provided for everyone, but the time comes we must all bear our own Christ-led cross. Think about this....
Soul Ties are always to be considered if you cannot move on from a wrong relationship. Soul ties need to be broken.
Do you have any tips on how to successfully break soul ties?
@@jennieappleton1161 yes Jennie I give this link to people. I'd encourage you to pray thru it a few times in regards to anyone you have been with sexually or had intense emotional connections with. Also you can pray thru is in regards to relationships with parents. Not all soul ties are bad but some are. wildatheart.org/prayer/breaking-soul-ties-rh-podcast
Michael Oates Thank you Michael for the fast response and for the link, much appreciated! This soul tie has been going on for 11 years and I feel I’ve finally reached my limit since this person has not changed and just keeps repeating the same routine/patterns/treatment towards me. I know I deserve better, so hopefully this will help me.
@@jennieappleton1161 you are welcome ny sister. That is along time to deal with such things. Let me know if you want additional input. Youcanbeconfident@gmail.com
Absolutely
About a year ago after cutting ties with someone i prayed almost everyday that if this man wasn't for me please let me stop loving him and till this day no matter how i try to force myself to move on i can't
Don't you think you should consider at least getting in touch with him, if you already haven't. Just my thought.
I did the same. Loved him but very abusive. The ex moved in a week later with him. Game over. I think off him every day.
dianaTwiggy I don’t want to I want to find someone else and be through with him all through high school we’d stop talking then we’re back together
Simple Styles trust I’ve been praying for the last year
@@dianachophy that is good advice.
I know deep down in my head and soul that meeting her was not a mistake, and I know God has lead me to her. We may not be together now, but once we have grown and matured in the grace of God, then we will be together again because I know we are meant to be, and I hope God will continue to bless her life and bring spiritual healing unto her so that when we are together again, we will never break apart because I know this break up was God's will to make me realise something and focus on my studies and wait
My boyfriend got sick and was in the hospital and he got out he found out he has cancer we where going to get married and live together then he got sick and I told him that I will like to come and stay with him so I can help him he said not till he get better have not heard from him for one month now .I really do love him hope that God could sofe in his heart and bring him back to me soon .miss him alot feeling sad cause I don't know what's going on with him he is keeping me in the dark with please pray for both of us thank you Jesus 🙏 amen
I prayed for you💗I felt called to pray for your anxiety...I'm not sure if that makes sense? If it does, claim it. God wants you free!
Margarita God will bring your maniacs to you in Jesus Christ the Nazarene
Margarita Montoya I had cancer back in 2006. I also pushed the man I loved away because I was afraid he wouldn’t be able to handle the horrible reality of cancer. What I truly wanted was for Him to choose to stay and fight with me. I would suggest you go see him ASAP. Tell him you love him and you want to fight this disease right by his side. May Almighty God bless you both with love, light and healing 🙏🏼💖✨

Let's also incorporate prayer and discernment when making a decision about relationships, either romantic or otherwise.
Great video.
Pray for me darkness has a hold of me and I need to return to the light and to Gods will!! May God bless you all more than me!!
I’m going thru similar things. Do not worry! I’ll pray for you, brother! We are in this together. Jesus is the way! ❤️
I rebuke every evil spirit and principality that has tried to encounter your life. I cover you in the Blood of Jesus and declare NO WEAPON FORGED AGAINST YOU WILL PROSPER! I speak peace over you and your entire household. God is with you my brother 🙏🏽❤️ Be blessed! And watch your gates (eyes, ears, and heart) Don’t give any place to the enemy 😉 @andreramirez
🙏❤
I pray all of you move closer to god and never forget that the love he has for you is unconditional. He makes no mistakes. Work on yourself. Learn your self worth, and if this person comes back it’s because god let it happen, if not then he has something even better for you. Stay blessed.
Delight yourself in God and He will give you the desires of your heart And Believe God He does and so much more Thanks Mark for the work you do
God bless you always!
God bless you too!
My favorite scripture Psalm 37
It’s very refreshing to see a positive video on relationships rather on a 10 step guild on how to tell if he is interested
💯💯💯
😂😂
I just prayed for him and came across this video 😭😭😭😭
My fiance and I are in a relationship for 8 years and a half and we are both believers. I kept asking God if it is not his will end it and he never did. So we are going to be happily married next month 🙂
Please pray for me and my fiancé Carlton that the same happens
Congrattttssss! How is the marriage life?
@@bannannamilkshakez2907 okay sis!

You got a red flag, a clear sign 8 years for an engaged ....its time to let go
I know that GOD is telling me to wait for her, hes just building me up for my future with her
Dear God, I feel my spirit jumping right now. I receive this message and I am praying for healing from fears and insecurities 🙏🏾🙏🏾. I have to live in the confusion and be patient
@D Frazier I believe I am only confused because I am trying too hard to understand what God is doing instead of allowing God to do what he does best and lead me towards his righteousness. The path is something new for me and what is new I fear and try to analyze every single step. But I must be patient and resilient in this process. We each have our own journey. Glory be to the most High and peace be with you 🙏🏾🙏🏾
@D Frazier Yes I couldn't agree more 🙌🏾 .
I've tried moving on from someone so many times. Dated other men, he other women. We've never been able to get each other out of our thoughts and lives; always staying in contact. He is so calming and helps bring calmness to my mind and life. I've known him for 18 years and he just moved back to the city we met and where my daughter's father lives. I believe God is keeping him in my life for a reason.
I felt emotionaly pain last night about someone. But this morning this video unexpectedly poped up.
literally same thing with me
@@MegaAdonis101 i think everyone has the same i guess
But last night i dreamed about her
make that three of us
Hi
All praise to the Most High! God bless everyone and I pray you all feel and receive Gods peace and love as your read this. I really appreciate this and needed this. I ask that you all pray for me and my relationship we have been through many trials but I believe God has placed us together for a Kingdom marriage. Please join me in prayer! Thank you all. God bless and much love!
jade nelson blessings & strength to you & your mate! I speak victory over the union & know it’ll be great. I’m dealing with my own storm in my relationship & pray he comes back to me, I’ve forgiven him, I pray God restores our relationship, yet I sent this prayer 🙏🏽 to you, your comment touched me. Many blessings & prayers
God places exactly what you need at the exact time you need it. Divine timing. I guess this is a sign that its okay not to move on just yet.
Meh the way these videos come when I'm thinking about it, is scary. Also God bless everyone. Damn scary!
God bless as you keep growing in Christ :)
Ya its wigged out huh?
Lol 😂
For real I said this before about a year ago it’s just really creepy 😳 AGW are you watching us?! Lol 😀
HelloSomebody God is, he bases he’s responces from interpretation of the Word. And I bet he prays about it and God answers
😖 What... The LORD always catches me at the right moment..
God bless!
The ups and down is what makes us run away from maturing in a relationship that is starting. That’s how we grow and mature if we don’t give but also don’t wait until is too late to end that relationship that is causing pains and sorrow. But i think when you are with God you will know if you have to give up and end the relationship, if we diligently seek him. God bless for this video, 🙏🏼❣️💜
God bless you too Reyna!
The body is weak the spirit is Strong.!!
I feel this applies to my situation. My bf and I had no problems, didn’t really fight, no cheating, 100% trust. Then he moved long distance and the break up caught me off guard. Saying that “he wants me to experience my youth, to live life, and so that we can learn to love ourselves and that we can try again in the future”
We are still close and we haven’t fought or argued, we last laughed and he gave me a bunch of advice on how I need to love myself and learn myself so that I can be complete in myself
He challenged the way I’ve been living my life and I’ve been getting signs from the universe and my gut and intuition says that we’re going to be okay.
We’re in a grey area where Idk how he’s really feeling or what will happen. But I see signs everywhere 222, 1010, 888, 333,444, etc. and things telling me not to move on. I guess this is my sign.
#1 - hit me right between the eyes! Very wise words! I have been wrestling with fear that past toxic relationships have left their mark. I have done personal work and healing, and knew that if/when I got back to dating there would be more layers to the healing. Trusting God and taking the risk to be vulnerable about my fears with the person I've started dating. God has really had his hand in things!
Oh my gosh, this is what’s happening to me right now. I needed this! Thank you, Mark! God bless! I thank God for you and for your video! 🙂
I'm so glad you are enjoying the content! All glory to God!
Yes me too, this is so refreshing!
I’ve been praying for the past couple days that God show me if I’m suppose to be with this certain person, I’m scared and really insecure about myself, wondering if I’ll be the right woman for him and I’m always scared to say the wrong thing and I get very nervous around him, I’ve never been in a godly relationship. Please pray for me!
I'm in the same situation! But what I'm most worried about is that he lives in a different state and I'm afraid of the distance. Will be praying for you 🙏 God Bless
This is good... I especially love #3 I believe God’s best will help propel us into who He calls us to be. However, it does not always feel good to be challenged so its tempting to run. I often ask men, you say you want a helpmeet but do you truly want the help? As a woman of God, I know I am called to HELP my future husband be better. But he has to be willing to accept the help :)
Sis, what are the replies men say when u ask them this question?
Joyful n Blessed Amen I agree
Ms. J. They always say yes. A guy I dated years ago, he said yes but his actions showed different. He seemed to not be able accept simple suggestions and even messages/sermons I sent he’d say “That doesn’t apply to me”. And like Joyful said above, if he resists thats indicative that he’s not the right man.
Ms. J. I’ve heard some men their wives play a big role in who they are today. I love to hear men talk about the favor they obtained once they found their good thing ☺️
Wow, this came in perfect timing. I have a crush on this guy but he has a girlfriend and I told him via message before I knew. He never responded but I apologized and wished him well and hope he’s happy. It’s been months but I’m happy and I feel content. If we’re meant to be well find each other, but if not, I know the lord is going to take care of me ❤️
Amen
God bless!
Move on
Don't bank on him breaking up with his current girlfriend. His silence to your text was a good thing. God will drop you someone who is devoted to you as he is to his current partner. Don't settle for crumbs when you have a great piece coming ☺
I know exactly how you feel. I met a guy at an old job who i truly felt was my husband. He felt the connection as well but had a girlfriend. I’ve been praying for him lately since I’ve given myself over to God. Who knows?
God’s timing is so perfect! This video couldn’t have come at a better time! I’m literally feeling fear so much these days in the relationship I’m in currently and this is exactly what I’m going through now. I’m literally moving 4000 miles away tomorrow indefinitely...wow! Thanks Mark for this. I am a person who runs away from the gray area and I’m on that now. I know without a doubt now, after seeing this, that God’s Got This!! Praise God I’m in this struggle now. What growth is to come from this is something I can’t wait for!
We just broke up earlier today. Both of our mothers keep telling me “the dust needs to settle. You guys have too much going on.” We meet at these areas but I’m kinda relieved we split up. It’s all based on emotions right now. Don’t get me wrong, I’m sad but not falling apart. It’s in Gods hands. He claims to love God but I don’t see it.
Same situation. Your in my prayers love bug stay patience in christ and keep your motivation
Lord, I believe. I can't see the future, and honestly I'm freaked out. Yet you are good, and nothing can stop you. Not my will but your will. You can see the small gap in my heart, and I believe that you will fill that gap, and add the best finishing touch with the love of my life. I love you, because you first loved me, and I love her, because you taught me how to love. Give me the strength to believe everyday, and give thanks every night. In Jesus's name I call out and pray, Amen.
I asked last night “ get me out of the confusion “ and then I get this..
He moved on !!! I didn’t... still single but got a new career instead.
When the gray area has been too many frustrating and annoyingly confusing years with absolutely no clarity nor communication? Forget it. Seriously can't wait to meet the person that makes all the jerk people of my past extremely easy to forget and move on from... Someone who understands what COMPETENCE means in communication and actions.
Incredible.
Thanks Mark. I've been binge watching your channel over the last few mornings after work (I work nights) I'm SO encouraged right now. Thank you for posting and edifying!
Blessings to you, your family and ministry🙏🏿
This was a very informative and helpful video. Thank you Mark for making this video. This video completely just described my situation with my girl. I just overcame trust issues and jealousy within myself because my girl asked to have some space because my insecurities was getting the best of the relationship and it was causing a big problem. So because of her taking that space from me.....it made me wake up ! and realize that I had a problem and I needed to get it fixed. It brought me closer to God through praying and I also did family interventions and self-improvement videos. I took the proper steps to better myself and get rid of the trust issues and the jealousy issues within this relationship. I have actually grown and I have became a better man because of this relationship cuz it showed me the error of my ways and the problems that I had. I thank God for her and for waking me up to see that i had a serious problem that i was dragging from relationship to relationship and it was time to STOP ! Acknowledge it and get help to fix it ! Thank you father God for changing me 🙏🙏🙏
I've already lost out, am only seeing this today when my fears popped in months away following past wounds. Lesson learnt. Please pray for me that God gives me a second chance 😔
Your in my prayers love 😇😇
Phew, I really needed this. I have been considering breaking off my relationship with one of the closest people in my life solely because of my insecurities and not feeling like I was enough. Only God can determine that I am enough for this relationship, and if He says that I am then I should accept that and believe it.
You are more than enough Katrina ! You are a precious child of our Heavenly Father !!
Trust God to give you the peace that surpasses ALL understanding.
God bless you ✝️🙏❤
Amazing how God will allow a message, such as this, to come through right when I’m praying about this very thing! My God 😌
i've been praying for a sign and for God to bless my relationship, i really needed to see this! popped up in my recommended, thank you ❤️
Amen, God bless you Mark. I have been praying for a sign for the past two days, and he answered me may his name be praised and glorified forever and ever.
God bless as you seek the Lord!
Amen.
Wow! True Love requires True Risk!
Love that statement! Have no thoughts of moving "on" FROM this person..only moving "TO" this person! But it is nice to reconfirm in my mind that his faults do not matter in the slightest to me. Because we all have them. Great message! And love the iron sharpens iron. I would get So bored if he did not challenge me in some way!💕🤗🙏 No woman wants a doormat for a husband. And I doubt any Christian man wants that in a wife.
All convicted me, #3 was absolutely the clarity I needed. Thank you God and your willingness to speak the truth!
Thank you for the great tips, Mark.
It may be that you can stay with someone, or renew a relationship with whom you love, as long as you have an equal degree of dignity to efficiently ground that love. In other words, however much love you have for a person, you must have an equal amount of personal dignity, in order to maintain a healthy relationship with them.
True love is unconditional. Tho, relationships are not.
God, along with your own sense of dignity, will teach you how to best determine sufficient, effective boundaries for your relationships.
God bless!
Another timely word. God bless.
God bless you too!
Amen! I'm struggling right now with this very issue! God is absolutely 100% good all of the time!
@@joshuataylor81 Yes He is.

I ask God for a sign yesterday regarding a dream that I had . And i believe this is a confirmation. Thank you Mark:)

This video must be a sign for me, just this week I said maybe I should let go. Thank you for this video popping up on my recommended videos 😊🙏🏾
Man, this was right on time. My fear has been controlling me throughout this new relationship.
Thanks for sharing this. I always try to keep an open mind when dating. But I realized that in the dating process I am either not "Christian enough" or not being "not worldly enough" by that my mean out going or social.
My relationships always end during the Grey period and I am often left wondering what I did wrong. As it usually takes me longer to move on.
I like the perspective here and hope God willing I meet someone who is willing to go the long haul. 🙏
So glad this was helpful, keep following the Lord about above all else!
Worldly doesn’t mean social or out going. Those are personality traits. Worldly means sinful . ☺️ there is nothing wrong with being out going or social, it’s all what you do with it.
@@way2girly Lol. I know what worldly means. Not trying to trying to incite judgement. What I meant by outgoing and social was in terms of Drinking.
I don't believe in judging people because I am not God. Thank you for your insightful comment.
Helen Polume oh okay :) and no problem ~
When I’ve been asking god for a sign if I should contact this guy I stopped talking to or meet new men but you don’t know if this is a sign or a coincidence...God you know I’m dumb please give me a bigger sign please 😭
“God you know I’m dumb” I felt that.. I’m in the same position and I need another sign. 😫😂
Do you feel peace about it, what are your real motives...?
Man this is me, i still feel confused and i have no idea if i should dip or just stay and let the relationship happen. I need another sign lmao,
Bro I felt the God you know I am dumb 😂😂😂😂😭it’s annoying bc I think he got tired of me asking him to show signs upon signs
There are no coincidences, if that helps lol. You have to pray for discernment and His hand to guide you. The devil plays tricks, our emotions are fickle and can't be trusted..... you have to lean in to God. Trust me lol. I pray that you will be richly blessed with wisdom and guidance.
I met the most amazing, and Godly women. We started to fall in love and it became intense. All of our unhealed wounds and insecurities came to the surface. Her trauma and past kept surfacing, and she became overwhelmed and ended the relationship.
We both talked about this being best for now, and how close we felt to God and each other, in spirit. We want the best for each other, but she needed to do this for herself.
I have conflicted feelings about what to do. I don't know if I should give up on her, or continue praying for her and our relationship reuniting in the future. I love her, but her fears and past forced her to give up on us, at least for now. There's no confirmation that we'll be together in the future, but my heart and soul feels bonded to her and doesn't want to give up.
If you guys could please pray for me, this has been the hardest situation ever. She needs time to work on herself and find happiness without me, and heal her trauma and wounds. I love her unconditionally, but it feels painful to sit here and wait without knowing if she'll ever come around. Please help guide me what to do, Lord. I love this woman, and only want the best for her.
Absolutely. I'll be praying. Totally know the feeling 😅 🙏
Almost to the detail of what am going through as well😢
Well I just ended up a relationship with someone who didnt have the same belief as me, it was heartbreaking cause my soul was tied to him. While being in that relationship I was already caught in confusion with God but I asked the Lord for strength to let go of him.
God bless and heal you.
How do you know if God is separating people to then bring them back Idk how to explain it but how do you know if God is separating you from someone so that y’all can become more spiritually mature or mature period
I’m going through that right now lol I needed to see this comment I’m confused about a long term ex i got so over him but sometimes a lot of things make sense idk if he’ll bring us back together it’s like I’m over him but still love him he’s the only one who knows me it’s confusing
I think honestly, you don't. And I do not think it is healthy to be obsess with them returning. The only thing you can do is pray and lean on God, ask for clarity, and He will shows you the sign.
@@elissamiller8374 thank you so much for replying I have been working on this
@@sophialucianamarielove8520 same here! This man has been popping in my mind randomly lately even though I haven't spoken to him for 6 years and it's driving me nuts so I figured it wouldn't hurt to pray.
Keep doing what you need to do and God will show you the way. :)
@@elissamiller8374 yes ma’am I’m going through a session where a guy keeps popping into my mind again and I’m over here like now I know I moved on so what’s this
Wow this is exactly what'd I'm going through right now and thankyou for helping me though this rough season
Thank you I needed to hear this. God Bless everyone who found this video and needed it too I send u understanding, patience, and love to your current situations.
Omg this is what I have been going through the entire week. We really like each other and learning to know one another. Because of my insecurities and feeling as though he controls me by pushing me to do the best in life, I pushed him away with my words.
Totally just prayed to God for some answers, whether I should just let go and move on because it has been hard. We took a break but decided to just see how things are and be friends for now. But, there are still some issues on both ends. We are definitely in a state of confusion and a lot of unknowns. I'm just going to keep praying and just be with God throughout these painful and stressful time. Because I still am so confused about what the right thing to do is. But, I can see that my heart is changing for the better, my old ways are changing, and I am trusting God more with my situations. I have been spending a lot more time with Him throughout my difficulties in life and I'm here just ready to listen and obey what God wants me to do. Thank you for your videos also! They have been helpful with my situation right now!
I'm so glad this video was relevant for you Kammi!
I couldn't move on from a relationship so I held on till now and now that I've watched this video it has really given me a reason why can't I move on and why I felt like just hanging on. This video has been helpful to me. Thank you so much.
for 5 months of struggle now I finally have an answer.. I'm crying as I watched this video
Oh wow, perfect timing for seeing this video... :O
I just realized that my own fears are the ones who want to move on...
Big sign this recommendation today for me...
Thank you!
Well said!!! Incredible how powerful our fears can be. Being aware of them now we can replace w faith
@@ErK61 but how do you replace with faith sometimes? Specially those fears who are super attached to you...
Hi Mark, this is nothing short of an answer from “GOD”, Every time that I ask “GOD” to show me , or give me confirmation about a matter, that I need an answer to, clearly he speaks through the word, and then through you. I thank “GOD” for being in my life, I thank “GOD” for his never changing word, and I thank “GOD” for speaking through you, each and every time. “GOD BLESS YOU”, and the work that you.
Wow! It’s apparent Ireally needed to hear this or I wouldn’t have received it. God was listening to my heart and thoughts why he sent it. God you’re always on time guiding me to think before I do or not to. As always I’m thankful for my blessings you’ve given and your guidance. I’m so appreciative. Also, thank you Mark for the message. Blessings!🙏🏽✨💐🎶
I just cut someone loose not because of my fears but because he was right off the bat disrespectful towards me and felt he had to explain his superiority to me. I liked him initially until he revealed his true colors. I didn’t run, I let him go.
Been struggling with some confusion/tension lately and this was definitely what I needed to hear. I said in the beginning there would be confusing times. And I knew I would have fears. I need to trust God to guide us through this time, especially working with the weirdness of the world now.
Trials are what bring us closer together. A relationship isnt defined by the presence/absence of conflict, but rather by how that conflict is handled.
I’m spooked out right now. God works in mysterious ways🙏🏽I needed to see this RIGHT NOW♥️
This seemed to pop up at the right time... I’m going through this season of a breakup with my ex and we’re going to meet in a month to see where our headspace is at because ever since we met she said she felt like her relationship with God was growing stronger and she’s realizing that she never dealt with these emotions and needed to work on her and God alone... I want to move on and I want to just forget her, but I felt God tell me to stay in this vulnerable spot because it can make me grow in ways I can’t even imagine right now. For better or for worse in the moment I ask for prayers in this situation to not give up hope and to trust God with everything!
How did the meet up go?
Yes pls update
@@Crybabycry884 she said she’d like to work on us and went back to her ex. So she lied and is now married to her ex.. but it is what is, no hard feelings at least now lol. Back then I was so angry but it’s for the best in hindsight, being single is much easier for me at this age to work on myself.
@@nevaendingjoker5449 omg I’m so sorry :(
That second one, I feel like the LORD is building me up during this trial. I was telling a friend the other day I believe these times for me are for the LORD to build things into me that can't be built in another way and He wants my undivided attention during this time.
I told my GF that I needed a break and several questions answered about us and what we could become. In the following days this video pops up in my feed, imagine that. God has some amazing timing and a purpose for us all. I hope her and I can iron some bugs out and with this video, I now have the courage and clear mind to do it. The first sign related to me and her the most and it's completely true as well.
This is the perfect clarity that God gave me about a specific person.. Thank you Sir Mark..! God bless you always..! 😊😊😊
Glad it was helpful!
This video is the answer in one of the videos that you posted sir related to how to move on from someone and i left a comment about that video..i decided to move on to that person because of the circumstances that we faced from no communication to trust issues. But when i saw this video i realized that God has a purpose when i met this person.. and i always continue to watch your videos because of the lessons that God teaches us and you're one of God's instruments. 😊😊😊
Wow... God knows when & how to get something through to me.. I needed this this morning. Thank you 🌻
I have never seen and heard anybody's wisdom about why to NOT move on with the person in your relationship quite like yours. The reasons concerning confusion, wounds, and insecurities are so valid and I feel more motivated to hang in there. On April 10, 2022, I was set on this path of getting to know somebody absolutely special to me. She is a wonderful young lady and it is a privilege to have her in my life during that time. We are currently in a season where I would be convinced to move on and call it quits, but those 3 reasons each resonate with and I will do whatever it takes to hold on.
theres a girl ive known for over 10 years now, we "talked 8th-9th grade and then she was dealing with her relationship with god and ended things with me and I went downhill, not horrible but got into a different relationship, fell into addiction, and then when that relationship ended, that original girl and I immediately came close again, not talking but friends. and while I thought she was attractive and she is most definitely a devout daughter of christ, I thought about how mad and angry u got about things ending and spiraled downward and it made me feel unsuitable for her.
We stayed friends but I got with a different girl who was great but that girl pursued me so much and I felt unsure but dated her anyways, and well, my life turned upside down, and a lot of crap happened and on top of that things ended and well we each grew way more in the 2 months we've been broken up.
Now recently, that original girl, the one I had a crush on since we were little kids, who even when I was in a relationship with someone else, I was still so comfortable with her, and recently we are just sort of having moments and opportunities to hang and we've been around each other and we just recently graduated and are kind of starting the next sections of life soon. ive suddenly just been in more communication with her a bit more and just having special times with her in groups.
Theres a lot in my life, I need prayer and guidance, but does anyone maybe think that this is gods way of showing that maybe her and I could be a match? She doesnt pursue me like an insecure girl, she has her problems that she is actually working out and growing in and even back 4-5 years ago, she was an inspiration for me to keep growing and coming to church when things were dry for me. Idk, she's special, she's got something about her, and we have some connection that I wonder, is this maybe gonna go somewhere? im down for that lol, I just dont know. I want gods will, not my own, but if this is his plan, and his timing is here, im down for it. I want him to paint the picture now, not me.
😭😭😭😭 I NEEDED THIS!! God is using you in a mighty way!!
(Arms crossed) I didn’t ask to be here!!!! I didn’t ask for this!!!!😩😩😩😩
😊
I'm seeing this at 1:11 am. Jaw dropped. Divine sign indeed. Thank you.
The timing is impeccable 😭
No matter how many times my ex told he he loved me, no matter how many times he told me he wanted to be with me, he was still spending time with ex girlfriends, and his married coworker, and maintained emotional connections with them. He wouldn’t let me meet them- except for spending Easter Sunday with the coworker and her husband. He talked about his coworker often, but never about his other coworkers. I broke off our relationship, but within weeks, he got into a relationship with his coworker, she left her husband and now she and my ex are married. I was right to pay attention to my fears... he was showing me who he was and I had to move on, and then I learned about narcissistic abuse, which in hindsight, matched up with my ex’s behavior.. This was definitely God telling me to run and not just walk away from this man. There’s a reason for everything! 🙏
The timing, I’ve been in close contact with God recently, and it’s pretty incredible this video just popped up for me in my life at this moment. Thank you ❤️
Not sure why I'm just seeing this, but clearly it needed to be seen now, because this is my current situation. Thank God for guiding me here.
So glad it was timely Gigi!
Omg ! That part of iron sharpens iron was told to me by the guy I was talking to yesterday. 😳 my response was I didn’t want to be ironed out because sparks might ignite a fire and instead I wanted a loving n more romantic guy . The lord has def confirmed this guy is for me . I will def need prayers plz because today I messed up with this guy really bad n told him I wanted nothing with him ! 🙏🏻
Amen, I can't believe this video was posted last night when I watched it this morning. I am living in confusion, I was with my ex for 8 months and we have now been separated for 8 months. We both loved each other but had trust issues and I went away to college and fell prey because I wasn't strong enough in the lord... I prayed to God what I should do cause now I'm talking to another girl to try and move on but the other day my ex unblocked me so I followed her last night. I still don't know what he wants for me but I like what you said how Iron sharpens Iron.... I feel like we both make each other better people but It came at a price.. It has been really painful and had so many ups and downs.
Exactly what I need to hear right now. Thank you
I like this, it really helps. Most Christian dating advice says once there is confusion its not of God and it should end asap
what if all this happened but the person ended it anyway? Move on? or pray about it?
Once again, like with me and other people, this video seems to come at the right time according to my current situation with a girl I like at work who likes talking at work, but is kind of distant/flaky outside of work. But maybe things will finally change now?
I felt like giving up on a coworker I like during this month and even tried following a "no contact" plan for the month based on someone's (worldly?) advice to try to move on or see if she actually misses me. And also to focus on improving myself and growing closer to God. Her reworked schedule made my plan easier, which was that her days off were on my work days. And I stayed off Facebook most of the time. And I was currently helping out at another location of work at the same time for a few weeks. Once they stopped needing my help, my manager at my main location offered me extra work days, which I have wanted for some time. On the other hand, I knew I would be forced to confront that coworker, and it would be pretty stupid to say no to that offer for extra work and money. On the plus side, because of her hours and mine put together, we would actually be able to have 30 minute "lunch dates" regularly now which used to be very rare for some time. Me and her mainly got to talk on her 10 minute breaks or when she used to come in early when I got off work, which of course doesn't really allow much time for deep, meaningful conversations. The time that I finish work and the time when she's supposed to have her lunch break are around the same time now once a week.
Is this a coincidence? Almost as if God was saying "No, I am not going to separate you two. It's time for you two to start spending more time together and really get to understand one another, especially after your experiences all year." Once again, every time I want to give up on her, something happens that shows I shouldn't give up yet. Maybe she will finally start to get to know me better? Maybe she'll want to start talking more outside of work? Some people have told me to give up on her, others say to keep holding on and have faith. And it doesn't help that when I try moving on, I have to put up with certain temptations.
I know it's a long message, but I would like some insight on this. I wanted to give up, but still had a little faith that maybe God could still make something happen. I hope that me and her do finally connect and she has her eyes opened, since we have a lot in common with our interests and how we see the world. Our talks do get kind of deep and interesting when we actually get time to talk.
Sme condition
@@hanahdoleyhanahlll In that you keep wanting to give up on someone you have feelings for, yet it seems like you keep getting opportunities and reasons to not give up?
@@Dj.D25 yes it's happening several time with me nd this day I already put out her from me, then I popup with this video nd ur cmmnt make me no you don't do that's,
My case is quite similar to yours. Only that I'm the girl in your story.
@@Dj.D25 maybe she just don't know how to handle this situation. How to make it clear for the guy in most caring way that you really aren't interested in him?
I have never came across a video advising to NOT move on from someone and thats affirmation that God is speaking!
Bcuz of fear, faults and confusion I let him go and now I’m facing rejections from other men. I fasted and prayed for 3days to get Devine understanding on my decision 😞😞

Wow! Thank you! I needed to see this because I didn’t know whether I need to move on or not move on’ sometimes people say GOD says “let go”but “not to move on” so this is good teaching ...
I keep holding on because something just didn't sit right with me when we broke up. He just didn't seem as though he really wanted it. I just have this feeling deep down inside that he's the one and I shouldn't move on. I feel like I am the one that is supposed to bring him closer to God. However, holding on, is absolutely crushing me. Besides this video popping up, I'm praying that the answer will be clear
I’m wondering if this applies to relationships that are not romantic. I’m really struggling to maintain a relationship with a loved one right now. I want to run away so I can say. “Wow I feel so much better.” But then I won’t have my loved one in my life.
Hi, love them from a distance don't run away ,life is too short wish you all the best
Good points..indeed God's thoughts are not our thoughts..sometimes we need to listen to the small voice inside us.
