    A great message for Valentine's day 🎉. As a single lady, I've learned to not waste my singleness season. To fix my eyes on God, to trust in Him and He will keep me at perfect peace (Plsm 26:3).

      Amen! I'm 45 years old, and I've been single for 3½ years now. It's the longest I've ever been single. I've always felt that "need" to have someone to complete me, and make me feel validated. I still believe that, for me anyway, I have someone who will be my life partner... and I want badly to meet her. But the difference for me at this point in my life is that I know that I don't "need" her nearly as much as I need God. And that without God at the center, anything or anyone I have in my life will be incomplete. I still struggle with the fire of passion and desire some, but I know that... and I know that I don't want to act on that in and of itself. I have most of my life, and it's NEVER worked out! I know that God is working on me, growing me, and making me the best version of myself... so that when I do meet the woman whom God has been doing the same thing for, it will be His will, for His glory. He tells me to take heart, be patient, and love with ALL of my heart. And He will provide EVERYTHING that I need, and that He planned for me... and for her. Live blessed! ❤️🙏✌️

    This is actually good advise. I walked from a 5 year relationship because God Jesus called me. I was dating someone who was Hindu and I still love her but I've been able to get past my struggles by being passionate about reading God's word and helping out at my church. This season of the corona virus has allowed some of my old passions to creep inside my heart but today I am reminded to lean on God more and become more obsessed with things of God. This preacher did a good job understanding the struggle and what it takes to overcome. If your reading please ask God to keep me strong in my mind and spirit. I mean well but I'm human and the devil keeps presenting me with different opinions.

    I see many churches encouraging couples to speed up the marriage process instead of “burn”. But I see a fault in this because if the only reason you are getting married to avoid falling into sexual temptation then you’re not allowing the spirit to exercise His self control over your life. Because I don’t think sexual temptation will be cured inside marriage; temptation is a heart issue; therefore, it can even occur inside a marriage(ex:adultery)

      Actually, no... All these pastors (that cannot relate) their message is the same: stop being depressed over your barrenness and just “be on fire/work harder” for God (in the church ofcourse)... They’ll also keep twisting scripture to fit their narratives, implying that all the 50+ translations of the Bible are not accurate... Point is: they’ll lay hands on a barren couple (because the lack of a miracle is a bad look), but are never genuinely willing to lay hands on the most lucrative group: young single people... he didn’t really give any advice to those of us who have been faithful, productive, celibate and waiting for 20 years and are hurting because of loneliness and humiliation... Once again, these pastors are all about exploitation, not spirituality...

Why are we not encouraged to date other believers in the church? Why are so few saying "be fruitful and multiply". Why are so many adopting the LGBT agenda? I see beautiful young women that only talk to gay guys- that's not right. We need a shifting and transformation back to traditional Christian Bible values, ie straight masculinity and straight femininity.

      Amen. This is what my sister is going through. She is 31 and because I got married at 22 and I'm the older sister, it's been hard for her at times to watch my family grow and I'm approaching 13 years in a few months. I've been very transparent with her about all that marriage entails; the struggles, the heartbreaks and the joyful time. We lost our father tragically a few months ago as he was killed by a drunk driver. one of the most difficult things she's expressed is now our dad will never get to walk her down the isle. I've encouraged her to take this time to put Jesus Christ first in everything and make him the reason she does what she does. Glorify God in everything you do and when you delight yourself in the Lord, he will give you the desires of your heart. When you're married, the struggle to make time for God will intensify, and yet you'll need to lean on him even more.
      So i would encourage you to do the same. When it's no longer at the forefront, that is when you know it's no longer an idol and God can really move. That doesn't mean he's not preparing the other person, but that he sometimes is waiting on us to get out of the way.
      Praying for you. blessings

      Rackz Crazy channel I feel you, I too am in my 30’s,that feeling pressured is real....every time someone would ask “still single?” “When would you have a child?” And the insensitivity to go even further and remind you that you’re not getting younger and your biological clock is ticking 🙄. Well I have learned to ignore.... since I’ve started taking my Christianity seriously I have come to realize that I wasn’t ready for marriage, and I am the one that actually needs processing and preparing. I bless God for his revelation and for giving me the grace to finally endure and understand that being single is not that bad. He wants to be our first love. He does know our desires...... I’m allowing him to intervene in my life fully now.

Because God has clarified something that I've been struggling with almost all my life..... Every single depression I went through, every time I cursed God, was because I was failing to understand this even when he kept re-echoing it. I must say though, this is the clearest I've heard it!🙏🏽🙏🏽. And I am ready to keep going deep in God, being consumed by his fire , and then he'll find me tending to my usual business then light that other fire. I feel so much at peace. I feel so free and ready to serve and commune with God, because the junk off my mind has been cleared!!!

      God can change anyone, even the heart of a king (Proverbs 21:1). Separation from an abuser to be single is okay (1 Corinthians 7:11), however, divorce is only permitted when the unbeliever departs (requests for it - 1 Corinthians 7:15). There is nothing God cannot do, he can save your husband, change him and bring him back to you. Love you. Please read Luke 1:37, Jeremiah 32:17, Job 42:2. You might pray for God to work on both of you, to enhance your comparability.

      I mean really loves. God then they can love you the right way.
      Divorce is like a death,,, which
      Destroy "s both lives. Marriage is about sacrifices daily. Only. God can teach you this. It is not something you enter into likely.
      Make sure you truly hear from God.

    24, still single. Hoping for love some day. Saving myself for (hopefully) that one girl. Really hope she does the same.
    Yet, I find it difficult not to think about why I am still single etc. I need to focus on God more, but with everyone around me getting relationships etc, it's hard.
    Especially when everybody keeps asking if I finally met a girl yet. ;p
    I know it sounds whiny, but this is really something I struggle with every day. Can some people give me some advice? Or pray for me?
    And: Great message Pastor Steven!

      I agree with Creativve Slick. From my own personal experience I can tell you, as soon as I gave God a complete “yes”, and focused on myself, God gave me my now fiancé. God is faithful! And He’s so good. It wasn’t even a month after I made that choice to the Lord that he gave me the desire of my heart. Not saying it will or won’t happen for you that fast but the Lord is faithful to His servants! Keep pressing in His presence.

      1. Keep in mind you're not the only single person in the world.
      2. It's possible to get someone who is saving themselves too...It's about values and you can decide to get such a person...it can be upto you...decide and pray about it.
      3. Ask God to work on you to create an independent and content character, where you are happy and you have healthy self love for yourself. He did it for me. Glory to God....It doesn't happen over night though. He can help you to be self aware and assertive about who you are...find your identity in Him...and ask for discerning too so that you can tell fake ppl from a mile away and you will never waste time on them.
      3. Keep meditating on the word of God. You'll grow (spiritually, mentally and emotionally) to be a real man of substance! 👌👌👌
      4. Pray for a good circle of friends. And stay away from shallow minded ppl. Keep boundaries.
      Best of luck ☺

    • @peacetruth4802

      Men just need to step up and match the level of relational goals.
      We also need to gain and understanding of true intimacy. Praying with and over a woman.
