I’m 23 and I’ve never had sex. Some of my friends laugh and say that I’m “childish” for making that decision. This preaching has made me even stronger and my resolve STANDS! I will only have sex to glorify God Almighty! God bless you for being a vessel Pastor Mike. Update: Thank you for the likes & comments, this is 2021, I’m 26 now and will be 27 in a few months and I’m still waiting till marriage for sex😊
TheMakeupMind You are not alone. I often feel like I am alone, but it is nice to know I am not. I am 27 and have not either. That is a topic that I feel makes some guys run for the hills, but the one God has for us will respect our decision whole heartedly. I have learned to truly believe this.
TheMakeupMind That is a blessing! Don't listen to your friends or the enemy trying to make you feel like you are missing something. Coming from someone who is not a virgin. I understand why God says in the word "do not awaken love until it time."
Can you imagine planning a “Netflix & Chill” date and he thinks he’s coming over to watch a movie and you really got this on pause. Yeah let’s chill w/ God SIR! 😂😂😂
I’ve never appreciated a series more in my life. Just went through a break up 4 months ago and I’m still going through it everyday and I didn’t realize how much my soul was tied to his😩... I’m 19 and I’m glad that I’m learning this now. A heartbreak brought me closer to God and made me want to understand myself more. So glad I founded this series/church. I’m embracing my singleness and building my relationship with God right now and I’m learning more about myself each day. More people my age need to see this. Peace and love ❤️
Embrace your singleness and spend quality time w yourself. Be kind to yourself and do good things for you. Do things to make yourself proud. If you do, you will be so blessed and get the most out of your season of singleness.
Rydiah Rho WOW this was literally me at 19. If a nice guy comes along don’t comprise your relationship with God for him. I wish I could go back and tell my 19 year old self that. I hope and pray you’ll have strength in Christ throughout your new journey 😊
I got broken up with by my first love and first everything 3 months ago. Before meeting him, I was sure that I wanted to wait to have sex until marriage, but I quickly gave in after meeting him. Throughout the 2 years of our relationship, we were acting like we were married. I slept at his place every night and had sex. I ignored that I knew that I was doing wrong. Now, I regret being so foolish. I regret not putting my foot down and letting myself do what I did. I regret having sex and losing my virginity outside of marriage. Now i’m left with a very strong soul tie to this person, and breaking it has been so hard. Like I said it’s been 3 months but I still feel so immensely sad. Today I cried about 10 times. This series definitely does help. I have now decided I will not sleep with any man again until I get married.
Please do not ever stop. This generation needs you and people like you. The generation is lost and most of us dot know wat we put ourselves into because sometimes it feels wrong to talk about the things should be talked about. Preach it. We will continue praying for you so you can have more strength to speak to our generation.
So, I recently came across this series yesterday. This series was uploaded way back in August/September, but all of the comments I see were recently made in the last few days. Idk if I'm the only one who noticed this, but it seems like God is allowing everyone to find these videos in a season such as this. It's the beginning of a new year, and this will bless sooooo many lives. Thank you Lord for always being on time.
MissWSJ Yes girl! Every video has minister to me in my life and my season of singleness , and I just started watching yesterday to lol.. God has a time for everything! 🙌🏿
I wish I was still a virgin....There are so many things Ive done that I wish I could take back. Sometimes I look at myself and feel digusted by my poor choices. I love this series and am praying that I will make better choices moving forward.
Amber Jackson you shouldn’t feel this way if you’re truly sorry and ask for forgiveness,god will see you as pure as you were born. Don’t let the spirit of guilt take over you! All the ❤️!,praying for !💕
Amber Jackson there's no need to be disgusted with yourself. I made the same mistake and for so long I was afraid to ask for Gods forgiveness but that's exactly what the devil wanted me to do: he wanted to isolate me in my shame and speak evil things to me so I could end up doing it again; which I did. Until I finally broke out of my shame and I DECLARE A BREAKTHROUGH for you too! You have a story to tell. But don't let it be a worthless story with no message meaning you need to ask for forgiveness and forgive YOURSELF! Then you have a great story to tell. I'm praying for you; I love you ❤️
Amber Jackson baby love our God can make you a virgin again all you gotta do is asking him to take over your life. Make him priority in everything you do. God loves you honey it’s not too late.
Amber, Since God has forgiven you, you have to forgive yourself. I have made some mistakes that I wish I could erase, but I cant. Give it to God and wrapped yourself in his love. He loves you and He has put all of our sines in the sea of forgetfulness and he remembers them no more. The Devil is the one who wants to remind us so that we can love in regret. God has good thoughts about you and he sees you as a redeemed daughter of his. He is your king and you are his princess. Read Philippians 3:13. Forgetting those things which are behind and press towards the mark of the prize of the higher calling in Jesus. He can use your mistakes to help someone else when the time is right. I don't know you, but i love you. Chin up princess!
Every time you have sex, you are marrying someone without the covenant...Lord what a strong message..I am way older than most here and it has been a difficult ride..
Love this. 33 and still a virgin and not ashamed. I want to honor God and be an example to other's around me for Him. My last ex left me because I wouldn't have sex with him. Looking back I'm grateful that I have a great relationship with God because if I didn't I really would of made some dumb decisions when I dated the guy that left me. I don't regret not giving in and I feel so much peace from my decision. Thank you Jesus.
I am Hispanic and I think our cultures are very similar. Sex topic it’s a no no for Hispanic parents and it’s even worse if you have Christian Hispanic parents. This preaching is what I needed to hear when I was a teenager, I would’ve not done so many things against God & my body but I’m married now and I told my husband everything before we got married, he accepted my past and everything, he was a Virgin and I wasn’t. This message I want to share with every teenager I can, because it’s so powerful and eye opening. I didn’t hear it when I was a teenager but I can Speak it into others as a youth leader. Thank you Pastor for allowing God to use you for this generation.
Amen I love this so much! I'm 20 years old I've never been on a date, had a boyfriend, never kissed and I'm still a virgin. I used to be embarrassed to tell people this or I would hide it. Sometimes I would wonder why I should wait or maybe that I should lower my standards for a guy. But after watching this series I THANK GOD that I never gave into my temptations. There were so many times where I almost lost my virgin or was about to date the wrong guy and God always intervened and prevented it from happening. I thank God I'm still pure and I will continue to be. I have dealt with iniquities in the past and have stayed quiet because of fear. I wished the church would talk more about these issues and how to overcome them. I would love to start a lifegroup for youths on this series to help them be happy being single, bring God into their relationships, and surrender to God.
LAVICHA WILSON aww it's okay. There's many times I wanted to but I realized it didn't mean as much to the guy I liked as it did to me. Or some of my friends wanted me to just find somebody for me to kiss and I thought it was weird because I would want to date the person. My parents waited to kiss until they were married and I want to do the same thing. Although they already had kissed others in the past before they got married. Like it's okay if you didn't wait. You still can. My favorite preach Heather lindsey talks about this all the time. Both her and her husband when they met they were not virgins but they waited to have sex and kiss until their wedding day. Here's a video about it th-cam.com/video/CSsNRxLKxlM/w-d-xo.html But yeah don't feel ashamed Eventhough I never kissed or had sex. I have done other things that I still regret to this day but I know I'm a new creature in Christ.
Hey girl! Just turned 21, in the exact same boat. Keep the faith queen. The Lord really has had his hand on my life in that area specifically and I guess you too. Every time I got close to dating, getting intimate etc. something always happened.. I am very glad!
Anna's Travels hey me too! I just turned 21 last week. And my friends and co-workers thought I was strange for not drinking or serving beer at my job because God told me not too. But for real it seems like every time in the past with sin or when I liked a guy I felt like God was waiting to see what I would do and if i would obey but whenever I decided not to something would happen and we wouldn't date. But I'm fine being single this series has impacted my life so much and strengthen my beliefs. I'm not afraid of others judging me because I haven't had my first kiss and I'm still a virgin and want to save them for marriage.
@Lovematters God bless you, sweetheart! I just wanted to encourage you to stay strong in the Lord. There truly is a lasting blessing in saving yourself for whomever God says is worthy of you. I am 30 and still a virgin and I am proud and unashamed. And God helps me everyday to embrace this season with contentment in Him. That doesn't mean the struggle is not real because it definitely is, but the Holy Ghost is a keeper and the reward in waiting is much greater. May God continue to bless you to be an example of light.
If I knew this 9 years ago, I would’ve saved myself a lot of heartache and depression. But God! He has brought me through a lot and is continually giving me knowledge. I’m thankful for this church and this series.
Khadijah M I also wish I knew this sooner. Before my years of 19 to 26. I did a lot of damage in those years. I'm still paying the price for today. My dad would even allow me to bring guys over and never tried to restrict my life or my choices. I didn't know better. I thought he was giving me freedom but all those nights I wasted clubbing and all the guys I had sex with, all of it I regret.
I'm 16 and I'm still a virgin. Temptation has been such a big impact in my life, I didn't know who to turn to and who to talk to because I was getting really tired of temptation but I'm glad that today it stops with me!! All love from South-Africa. May God bless yall and help you guys get through whatever yall are going through.
its like God was like listen here Lorraine, we are going to address it today! This man says it as is and is so current and Now... God's standard does not change but society and the world has so we need to teach the truth and practically address it.
Mann..I have listened to so many preachings on relationships and sex in my short life, but I can definitively say none can even come miles close to this series. Watching this and am thinking of all the family members I would love to share this series with..thank you brother man
Celibate for 5 yrs and God is teaching me so much about myself and agape love!!!!! Trusting God for my husband.. This word is awesome all glory be to God.
Wow, I've never heard up during one of these videos until now, Mike was speaking about things I thought not many people did, (sexting, Private thoughts, Lust in the Heart) Satan has been teaching me for almost 7 years that those things are not sins and are ok and just what humans do. THANK YOU JESUS for shinning the light in those areas in my private life! I finally understand what SURRENDER EVERYTHING means! Praise God!
Leaving a bad and toxic relationship the night before. I woke up to a message leading me to this video and my life was instantly changed. It's so funny how god works. An Aunt that I rarely talk to sent me this video out the blue when I needed it most. Not only do I see things in a better light but I can honestly say that the battles that I have been dealing with ends today.
An aunt that you rarely talk to sent you the video leading to THIS sermon? Girl, I think from now on you need to talk to that aunt more often cause she obviously has a great spiritual love and care for you! ;-) My guess is that she was probably debating a little right before she sent it. "Should I send this to my niece at all? Will she receive it okay?" She then decided to take a leap of faith and answer the Lord's call and send you a link to the video and I'm SO glad she decided to answer the call! God Bless your aunt, you and pastor Mike! ;-)
My wife and I are definitely going to make it a priority to talk about sex with our children as they grow up so that the first time they hear about it is not from their friends and on TV. We as Christians should not be scared about this topic, but excited because we can share with them how God created sex to be beautiful and used in the correct way!
I am SHOOKED. This video truly helped me build a stronger foundation for how I view sexuality. Being 21 and staying strong in my purity is so special to me and it builds so much character in my spirit! I thank God for bringing me here and hearing this message!
@@fabi7296 God will restore your virginity. Repent of your sexual sin so that you don't live in regret once you ask for God's forgiveness. Once he has forgiven you, you will be set free from your past and the guilt and shame will be gone in Jesus name.
The scripture pastor read about Jesus bearing my iniquities and transgressions so that I can live in peace...😱. Took everything in me to not start balling
"Whenever we come off the hallelujah, we're dealing with horniness." If that's not the truth I don't know what is! This man is really preaching to the generations. Thank you for allowing God to use you to encourage the lives of so many people. God bless you!
Amen ALEXIS LAUREN . yes he is preaching to these generation , my generation. Parents these days specially in church they just make you believe that sex is bad but will not sit you down and address the issues that need to be address.
I’ve made a lot of mistakes in my past when it comes to relationships and sex, but I keep reminding myself that it is all apart of my testimony. All that I’ve been through has always led me back to God and for that I am forever grateful. God is so good! 🙏🏼🙌🏼 No sex until marriage! I wish I knew and understood all of these things in God’s word as a kid.
I don’t whether it’s just me, but after this video...I cried and I felt the Holy Spirit fall upon me. This is definitely the beginning of the best days of our lives only if we trust in God. Thank you Lord for Your word. Thank you Pastor Mike.
Thank you Pastor Mike... I had a child at 16, (who is now 11),and l wish l had known then what l know now. I'm not trying not to take responsibility of my actions, but l was one of those who was just told "stay away from boys, sex is bad etc", and l wish my parents had actually sat down and explained the way you just did ( and many other sermons l've learnt from). l've been celibate for a while now, not because sex is bad but, because it's beautiful when it's done the right way. l'm also praying for wisdom to talk to my son about sex, & make him understand all of these things. God bless you!!
Chipo Hoyi Bless you Sis!😊 I too have an 11 year old, I was 18 when I gave birth to her. GOD is Amazing! I want you to stay encourage and know that HE is preparing us for our purpose and HE will also continue to guide and teach us how to teach our children what it means to live a life honorable to HIM. Be blessed!!
In this generation, the abnormal has become the new normal. I have fallen so short that I disgust myself when looking at myself, I teared up listening to this sermon. I wish I could turn the hands of time to 12-13years ago when it all started. I am not proud of the sins I have committed but I believe God is taking me through a refining fire to purify me. I am just going to be faithful and focused. He was wounded and bruised for my transgressions and iniquity..... by His stripes, I am healed. Thank you pastor for allowing God use you to reach out to us without sugar-coating his word. God bless your ministry. Amen
I have become addicted to the word of god bc of this series. I stumbled upon this as I was tacklin a broken heart last week and this has changed my life. Pastor Mike you are a gift to us all! I have watched for hours. Reading my bible... Excited about god and faith again. My favorite pastor by far. I now understand on my level and I can't wait to view more sermons. Thank you God for bringing me to the word.
This sermon needs to go viral...!!Everybody in the name of our Lord Jesus Christ spread this message..!!I can't stop sharing the link to this,and the devil is out there breaking his back trying to bury this generation under sexual sin,but no more.The church needs to speak out on this,end the silence and share God's clear definition and context of sex. This generation needs Jesus,because in Him lies the true freedom. Love.
Gladys Njeri are you in Nairobi? I wish he could just move here because there is no guidance in the churches. Plus people treat sex so casually. It's not funny.
Nyakarima King yes I am in Nairobi.Our churches don't even recognize the existence of sexual sin especially amongst young people until someone falls pregnant,then it'e evident.We(my fellow youths and I)in our local church will be discussing this on Friday 23rd March 2018 during a night prayer meeting,you're very welcome!We will also pray and break all and any soul ties or connections the devil has on them.Karibu
Gladys Njeri Hello. I am not well so I can't make it. I live in Sweden and I have trained myself on keeping yourself pure. I came here in early December and found out how sex is prevalent among Christian singles. It shocked me. I have been sharing his videos to everyone I know. Please show the videos in your church. My email is nyakarimaking@gmail.com. Get in touch.
I wish 19 year old me could've watched this almost ten years ago, but I'm even more grateful for it now in this season of celibacy. People may look at me sideways, but I trust God because He made us, and knows us best.
I feel so naked listening to this and felt it was meant for me I have requested celibacy in my relationship, two days before listening to this god spoke to me. my life is not my own its god's and im thankful for this transformation
My pillow is soaking wet from the many times I cried through this sermon. I have to sit down and watch this whole series with my son. This has just changed my life forever. Thank you for letting God use you. You’re appreciated
Honestly so grateful!!!! I am 20 and have never learned any of these things. I’ve been saved for four years and now I’m learning it. But Glory to God. So thankful to be exposed to this message and church!
Finally, I get to see a pastor that’s preaching the truth instead those businessmen claimed to be pastor tell people what they want to hear like “ blessings is coming, God gonna do this ,,, bla bla “ what this pastor is preaching is exactly what our generation needs to hear .
When you deal with sexual sin, it allows other kinds of spirit to join you. I am so blessed this week with these series. May Continue to use you as a vessel for this generation.
Come on Pastor Mike! Literally brought to tears when he asked "So how many times have you made God say "I Do" when you didn't? If bringing your sins right to your face doesn't make you want to change for the Lord then I don't know what will - It was like I felt that pain immediately that God feels when we do this, crazy humbling. I'm not even through the video and feel compelled to comment. Pastor Mike is going to save a LOT OF SOULS. Pastor Mike is a blessing.
After 34 years, now I see that sex is not an evil thing. It's not the sex which is the sin, it's the separating after sex. There is a difference between a wedding and a marriage. A marriage is when two become one flesh, a wedding is a legal recognition of the union of sex and covenant.
This message series is so good. I had my 12 yr old listen to some of the sermons. She understood what he was saying and said she gets it. This is a series that all churches need to do.. Bless you Pastor Mike
Wait, who else feels like everyone in the comments section should just come together to talk or something. Maybe some worship, some word cos yall are beautiful children of God I would love to fellowship with
I got married at 23, but got divorced almost 8 years later. I’ve been single since 2018, and haven’t been sexually actively since my divorce. I believe God is keeping me for someone special. Sex is such a powerful and precious thing. I am looking forward to meet that special man God has been saving me for… We can remain pure, ladies. May the Lord help you in your weakest moments!!
I love my singleness because I know that there is more work to be done on me by God and more to learn than I know now and this series helped me get comfortable with that.
This is giving me wisdom, but is also making my faith grow bigger! Now days, we kinda forgot of the power of our God. Most of the time we don't open our true struggles and problems to him because we don't remember how powerful He is, and that there is NOTHING above Him. Nothing that He can't fix or do. There is NOTHING that can stop Him. And this series is remembering me of this wonderful thing about my Dad. Thank you! I need to share this with everybody!
I love how he explains this. I wish my church would be more open to speaking to singles about this. Instead of just wait. What should we do in our wait? What I do to fit off lust? I appreciate this relationship goals series.
I’m 17 and Is on this journey and I know it won’t be easy. However I know I can do anything through Christ who strengthens me and that alone gives me hope. I have many people my age older and younger, even Christians laugh at the idea of celibacy and me taking it serious but I know it is for the best and won’t take their comments to heart.
I am so much clearer on sex. I wish i had watched this video before i gave up my virginity. But now i know, so i surrender my sexuality to the only one Living God ( Jehova). Thanks so much Pastor Mike. Thank God for You. Thank You Transformation Church.... Thank You.
What I love about Pastor Micheal’s sermons is that he keeps it 100% real, every single time! Makes it so relatable to todays society! and I think that’s what is lacking in many churches of today!
I don't regret having sex. I simply know now that I must wait until marriage before it happens again. Which I'm happily willing to do so and have kept true. Im glad my Father above has altered my mind to know I don't need to follow the world's push on sex ever again. Or anything of the world. It truly warms my heart knowing Jesus has forgiven me of my sins, even the sexual ones. To those that are still virgins bless your heart, stay strong knowing The Lord of Host gots you, but I must warn, don't think you're better than others though. That goes for everyone, don't think you're better just because of His calling, keep it humble, keep it meek, keep it Christ. For those of you that aren't virgins, don't beat yourself up, ask the Holy Ghost to be with you on your new journey of abstinence, truly know you have been forgiven and know you don't have to follow the world and be of it. God Bless. Keep faith. Keep fighting the good fight. Yeshua Loves you so very much.
I was recently exposed to Transformation Church and I had to come back to watch relationship goals because pastor mike just started relationship goals reloaded. But boyyy I thought I was ready for a relationship and he’s been dragging me since the first sermon. This has open my eyes and heart to things that I’ve pushed away from for a long time. All I can say is thank you God.
Preach Pastor!!!! This makes me want to gather all the middle-school aged children of our church to talk to them about sex before the are fully exposed to the pervaded version of sex at school. God is good.
More people should watch this video, the church needs healing from sexual immorality!!! Powerful, all thanks to Pastor Todd for walking in his God-given purpose. 🙏💓
I've struggled with sexual sin for over 10 years, and it ends now! I will not let these iniquities carry over to my next generation, and it starts with the cross! Praise Jesus for what he's done for me!!!!
45:04 has me in tears this is the greatest message I have ever witnessed. God bless you Pastor Mike and God bless you friends who are struggling like I am with this sin. By his stripes we are HEALED in the name of JESUS!!
Im not a christian but im a huge fan of this man's message!! Thank you , thank you, thank you for this message. It answered alot of questions that i had
In my 26years of life, this is the best sermon i’ve ever heard about Sex. No lies told and everything is backed up with scriptures and God’s word never lies! I’m blessed to have come across these relationship goals series and my life has changed forever🙏🏼🙏🏼
All glory to God!! I've shared these videos with my friends, sister, and even my parents. I'm breaking these chains. I'm breaking the cycles, I will not surrender to the world, I will stand against it because the Lord of the universe is with me. No greater love ❤ at his feet, no place I would rather be.
You have it find someone to talk to even if you can’t go to this church. He’s right the enemy always counts on you staying quiet. I felt the same way but when I reached a good friend helped me. God will place people in your life that will help.
this made me cried a lot!! I wish I found this series years ago but I know God led me to this.. so thank you Lord. And thank you pastor for this message. God Bless you.
I'm a 33 year old single woman and I'm still a virgin. I've had some close calls, but I am glad God has still given me the strength to keep waiting. It is so difficult to wait. But this message is encouraging.Thank you Pastor Mike for your honest transparency in this sermon. God Bless you and your ministry.
Wow You found your purpose and it is to reach out to this broken world... you touched me and this adds value to my singleness chapter in life ❤️❤️❤️Thank you and bless you
God is raising this young man, and his church. Glory to God. We need churches to preach... Ive watched 3 series I'm hooked lol. God bless and keep them!
This series is blessing me! Thank you so much. I decided to watch this series for 8 weeks and to watch a sermon a week. I deleted all my dating apps, and I put myself on a social media cleanse. Let me tell you, I am truly getting a blessing from it! My relationship with God is growing, and I feel amazing! I am so grateful to have found this channel, because I was definitely feeling broken at the beginning of my journey, but “by his stripes I am healed!”🙌🏾🙌🏾 God bless you Pastor Todd
This message brought tears to my eyes. There is truly freedom in the name of Jesus and I pray each and everyone of us walks in that. BREAK THE CYCLE. BREAK THE CHAINS. In Jesus name!!
This entire series has healed me.. set me up right and now I have a new spirit. I've been questioning everything and I feel in this season God is simply answering me. I am soooooo grateful! I truly feel free now! This series is literally God sent 🙌🏾
Pastor Mike this series has completely changed me from the inside out, and I cannot wait to go watch part 7 and 8. My understandings of what relationships and sex were created to look like are so much clearer now. I can not begin to explain how grateful I am for finding these videos, I swear everybody should watch them because they 100% will change your life!
This changed my life! I am a 21 year old girl in her season in singleness, trying to grow closer to God and understand what He has planned for me right now. Hearing Pastor Mike confirm to me how important it is to have that container and trust God has helped me so much. This series was one of the greatest things I've ever heard. God Bless & thank you!!
3AM and God just broke into my heart, and began my healing and deliverance. I had given myself away to married man, because I didn't think there was any use of me being pure since I was sexually abused when I was young, and also that I thought God was denying me good things. I got bruised, badly bruised. I got vulnerable and exposed myself to people that I shouldn't have. but I am grateful to Abba. I am going to listen to this series over and over and overr and over and over again
This is one of the most powerful videos I've ever heard. It has transcended sex and began to step into other areas of the life of believers. The key is RELATIONSHIP has less to do with wife, friends and family (World view) and more to do with God, Jesus and the Holy Spirit (Word view). Michael Todd continue allowing the Holy Spirit to speak by you brother!
This video seriously inspired me. I have been living in sexual sin in different ways for 10 years (since a young age). Pastor Mike has an incredible gift given to him from God for speaking, inspiring, and encouraging others to follow the path God has planned for them. I was crying halfway through until the end because his words resonated truth in my heart. It's funny how God will put videos or messages that you need to hear across your path at just the right moment because He knows that you need to hear them.
I just finished the Stronger series and in the last sermon, Pst Todd tells a story of how the relationship goals series went viral and he noted it as a benchmark in the growth and strength of the church. In this series within the first minute he says "This series will be used a benchmark in the growth of our church". God is good, he truly knows the beginning from the end!
I usually listen to my usual speakers like TD Jakes and Devon Franklin and I have never seen or scrolled passed any of your videos but I believe God purposely put this series in my feed because of the place I’m in my life. We need young people to break down the message for the current world we live in. I thank god for u as I r truly anointed by god thank u for being a living vessel to speak to us Pastor Mike. Keep doing what you are doing
I came across this teaching by chance but l believe God led me here. I dont know who this man of God is but lam touched and blessed. I surrender all to you my creator.
It cannot be any clearer than this, the truth is being fully revealed. Sex outside the container God created, which is marriage, produces extreme damages. If we trully trully want to experience the best God has for us in this life let's then stop fooling ourselves, start believing God and do what He says.
As someone who has failed sexually, I can tell you that Michael Todd is not lying about the destructive power of sexual immorality by any means. But PRAISE GOD for all the healing that is available for those who have fallen in this way. Though our souls be wounded, the Lord binds up the afflicted heart that comes to Him in brokenness. What a good God we serve, and though this sin is a part of my past, the Lord has brought me through the dark chasm that sexual immorality will bring you to, and I have never been more satisfied in my singleness!!!! :) What a glorious time to spend yourself on the people of the Church! Wait on the Lord, beloved.
@@pastormichaeltodd7454 With all due respect to you, my friend, can you give me an objective foundation upon which you base these claims to 'revelation'? We are commanded in Scripture to test every spirit, to see whether they are from God, for many false prophets have gone out into the world, deceiving many (1 John 4:1). Therefore, we are not to believe everything that claims to be from, or of the Lord. This command presupposes an objective foundation upon which to test these spirits. Therefore, you must provide me with this foundation in order to prove that what you're saying is of the Lord, and not of your own subjective feelings of intuition, peace, or what you think you see or don't see. I also would love to caution you, for your own sake, as well as the sake of the flock that you oversee. I myself fell pray to seductive spirits in the former ways I walked, believing it was God who spoke, when in reality it was not. This wrought great devastation in my life and in the lives of others around me. Yet, through this hellish destruction, God brought me to a place where I discovered the doctrines of the Sufficiency of Scripture, the Perspicuity of Scripture, and the Providence of God; among others. These doctrines have radically changed the way I live my life in worship to Him. I now serve Him, not based upon what I *feel*, but what I *know*, based upon His written, objective, absolute, and eternal Word. There is no subjectivity in that. There is absolute peace, and absolute confidence in this, for I *know* I walk obediently to Him through it. I now am able to serve as a pastor of a small flock, and the joy that it brings me to be a conduit for His Word, rightly handled, is beyond my description. I also know, as I'm sure you do too, that we who teach will be judged with much greater severity (James 3), therefore it is incumbent upon me to warn you - in love, my dear brother - that you will be held to account for every soul you lead astray. Well intentioned, or not. Hell is filled with people who had good intentions. Remember that, dear brother. Let that truth be sobering to you. That said, I appreciate the heart behind your post, and I pray you will look to His objective, written Word as the only foundation for your life and ministry, as you lead both. Blessings, dear brother.
GOD Knows that I love how you tell the truth. Pastor Michael Todd, I'm the same way. You have to be direct with the GOD given Truth. No one can be helped until they learn to be real with themselves.
I’m 23 and I’ve never had sex. Some of my friends laugh and say that I’m “childish” for making that decision.
This preaching has made me even stronger and my resolve STANDS! I will only have sex to glorify God Almighty!
God bless you for being a vessel Pastor Mike.
Update: Thank you for the likes & comments, this is 2021, I’m 26 now and will be 27 in a few months and I’m still waiting till marriage for sex😊
TheMakeupMind you’re not alone, babe! I’m 29 and I’m yet to have sex. I will do so when it only glorifies His name inside the confines of matrimony.
TheMakeupMind You are not alone. I often feel like I am alone, but it is nice to know I am not. I am 27 and have not either. That is a topic that I feel makes some guys run for the hills, but the one God has for us will respect our decision whole heartedly. I have learned to truly believe this.
TheMakeupMind That is a blessing! Don't listen to your friends or the enemy trying to make you feel like you are missing something. Coming from someone who is not a virgin. I understand why God says in the word "do not awaken love until it time."
TheMakeupMind I applaud you for your decision. It’s honorable! It shows that IT IS POSSIBLE to wait (despite what pop culture says).
Same her girl. I can relate.
Can you imagine planning a “Netflix & Chill” date and he thinks he’s coming over to watch a movie and you really got this on pause. Yeah let’s chill w/ God SIR! 😂😂😂

Yessss! Lol
I've been against churches for years.... this pastor has moved me. He has touched me... I need to find a pastor like this in London UK.
Queenchar86 I know an Adventist pastor in London (or in the surrounding area) who’s amazing
Amen. I hope you find a great church!!

Amen me too
Amen
Beautifulsoul I will too
I’ve never appreciated a series more in my life. Just went through a break up 4 months ago and I’m still going through it everyday and I didn’t realize how much my soul was tied to his😩... I’m 19 and I’m glad that I’m learning this now. A heartbreak brought me closer to God and made me want to understand myself more. So glad I founded this series/church. I’m embracing my singleness and building my relationship with God right now and I’m learning more about myself each day. More people my age need to see this. Peace and love ❤️
Embrace your singleness and spend quality time w yourself. Be kind to yourself and do good things for you. Do things to make yourself proud. If you do, you will be so blessed and get the most out of your season of singleness.
Summer Rain thank you sooooo much. 😫❤️
Same here girl! It is super neat how God even provides a series like this in our lives at the perfect time when we need it !
Rydiah Rho WOW this was literally me at 19. If a nice guy comes along don’t comprise your relationship with God for him. I wish I could go back and tell my 19 year old self that. I hope and pray you’ll have strength in Christ throughout your new journey 😊
I got broken up with by my first love and first everything 3 months ago. Before meeting him, I was sure that I wanted to wait to have sex until marriage, but I quickly gave in after meeting him. Throughout the 2 years of our relationship, we were acting like we were married. I slept at his place every night and had sex. I ignored that I knew that I was doing wrong. Now, I regret being so foolish. I regret not putting my foot down and letting myself do what I did. I regret having sex and losing my virginity outside of marriage. Now i’m left with a very strong soul tie to this person, and breaking it has been so hard. Like I said it’s been 3 months but I still feel so immensely sad. Today I cried about 10 times. This series definitely does help. I have now decided I will not sleep with any man again until I get married.
Please do not ever stop. This generation needs you and people like you. The generation is lost and most of us dot know wat we put ourselves into because sometimes it feels wrong to talk about the things should be talked about. Preach it. We will continue praying for you so you can have more strength to speak to our generation.
I sooo agree
Amen!
Niyonzima Ephrasie Amen!!!!!! ❤️❤️❤️
This would of saved so many ppl man because no one talked about!!

So, I recently came across this series yesterday. This series was uploaded way back in August/September, but all of the comments I see were recently made in the last few days. Idk if I'm the only one who noticed this, but it seems like God is allowing everyone to find these videos in a season such as this. It's the beginning of a new year, and this will bless sooooo many lives. Thank you Lord for always being on time.
MissWSJ Yes girl! Every video has minister to me in my life and my season of singleness , and I just started watching yesterday to lol.. God has a time for everything! 🙌🏿
Amen. And happy new year.
very true
amen
So true! LITERALLY came across it last week!
I wish I was still a virgin....There are so many things Ive done that I wish I could take back. Sometimes I look at myself and feel digusted by my poor choices. I love this series and am praying that I will make better choices moving forward.
Amber Jackson you shouldn’t feel this way if you’re truly sorry and ask for forgiveness,god will see you as pure as you were born.
Don’t let the spirit of guilt take over you!
All the ❤️!,praying for !💕
Amber Jackson there's no need to be disgusted with yourself. I made the same mistake and for so long I was afraid to ask for Gods forgiveness but that's exactly what the devil wanted me to do: he wanted to isolate me in my shame and speak evil things to me so I could end up doing it again; which I did. Until I finally broke out of my shame and I DECLARE A BREAKTHROUGH for you too! You have a story to tell. But don't let it be a worthless story with no message meaning you need to ask for forgiveness and forgive YOURSELF! Then you have a great story to tell. I'm praying for you; I love you ❤️
Amber Jackson baby love our God can make you a virgin again all you gotta do is asking him to take over your life. Make him priority in everything you do. God loves you honey it’s not too late.
Amber, Since God has forgiven you, you have to forgive yourself. I have made some mistakes that I wish I could erase, but I cant. Give it to God and wrapped yourself in his love. He loves you and He has put all of our sines in the sea of forgetfulness and he remembers them no more. The Devil is the one who wants to remind us so that we can love in regret. God has good thoughts about you and he sees you as a redeemed daughter of his. He is your king and you are his princess. Read Philippians 3:13. Forgetting those things which are behind and press towards the mark of the prize of the higher calling in Jesus. He can use your mistakes to help someone else when the time is right. I don't know you, but i love you. Chin up princess!
I made the same mistake also but i am a new creation now and practicing celibacy. Dont be disgusted by your choices. God has forgiven you
Every time you have sex, you are marrying someone without the covenant...Lord what a strong message..I am way older than most here and it has been a difficult ride..
Love this. 33 and still a virgin and not ashamed. I want to honor God and be an example to other's around me for Him. My last ex left me because I wouldn't have sex with him. Looking back I'm grateful that I have a great relationship with God because if I didn't I really would of made some dumb decisions when I dated the guy that left me. I don't regret not giving in and I feel so much peace from my decision. Thank you Jesus.
God bless you, and don't let nobody make you feel bad
❤❤❤❤❤
So proud of you!!!
@@Zacdahwac thank you 😊
Turning 21 and still am. You're 35 now that's amazing!
I am Hispanic and I think our cultures are very similar. Sex topic it’s a no no for Hispanic parents and it’s even worse if you have Christian Hispanic parents. This preaching is what I needed to hear when I was a teenager, I would’ve not done so many things against God & my body but I’m married now and I told my husband everything before we got married, he accepted my past and everything, he was a Virgin and I wasn’t. This message I want to share with every teenager I can, because it’s so powerful and eye opening. I didn’t hear it when I was a teenager but I can Speak it into others as a youth leader. Thank you Pastor for allowing God to use you for this generation.
Andreaz blog yesssssss!!!!
Andreaz blog Keep sharing your testimony💛 God’s work in your life is powerful
Amen I love this so much! I'm 20 years old I've never been on a date, had a boyfriend, never kissed and I'm still a virgin. I used to be embarrassed to tell people this or I would hide it. Sometimes I would wonder why I should wait or maybe that I should lower my standards for a guy. But after watching this series I THANK GOD that I never gave into my temptations. There were so many times where I almost lost my virgin or was about to date the wrong guy and God always intervened and prevented it from happening. I thank God I'm still pure and I will continue to be. I have dealt with iniquities in the past and have stayed quiet because of fear. I wished the church would talk more about these issues and how to overcome them. I would love to start a lifegroup for youths on this series to help them be happy being single, bring God into their relationships, and surrender to God.
LAVICHA WILSON aww it's okay. There's many times I wanted to but I realized it didn't mean as much to the guy I liked as it did to me. Or some of my friends wanted me to just find somebody for me to kiss and I thought it was weird because I would want to date the person. My parents waited to kiss until they were married and I want to do the same thing. Although they already had kissed others in the past before they got married. Like it's okay if you didn't wait. You still can. My favorite preach Heather lindsey talks about this all the time. Both her and her husband when they met they were not virgins but they waited to have sex and kiss until their wedding day. Here's a video about it th-cam.com/video/CSsNRxLKxlM/w-d-xo.html
But yeah don't feel ashamed Eventhough I never kissed or had sex. I have done other things that I still regret to this day but I know I'm a new creature in Christ.
Hey girl! Just turned 21, in the exact same boat. Keep the faith queen. The Lord really has had his hand on my life in that area specifically and I guess you too. Every time I got close to dating, getting intimate etc. something always happened.. I am very glad!
Anna's Travels hey me too! I just turned 21 last week. And my friends and co-workers thought I was strange for not drinking or serving beer at my job because God told me not too. But for real it seems like every time in the past with sin or when I liked a guy I felt like God was waiting to see what I would do and if i would obey but whenever I decided not to something would happen and we wouldn't date. But I'm fine being single this series has impacted my life so much and strengthen my beliefs. I'm not afraid of others judging me because I haven't had my first kiss and I'm still a virgin and want to save them for marriage.
@Lovematters God bless you, sweetheart! I just wanted to encourage you to stay strong in the Lord. There truly is a lasting blessing in saving yourself for whomever God says is worthy of you. I am 30 and still a virgin and I am proud and unashamed. And God helps me everyday to embrace this season with contentment in Him. That doesn't mean the struggle is not real because it definitely is, but the Holy Ghost is a keeper and the reward in waiting is much greater. May God continue to bless you to be an example of light.
Lovematters this is beautiful! For God's glory don't be ashamed you haven't given into the world and it's way
If I knew this 9 years ago, I would’ve saved myself a lot of heartache and depression. But God! He has brought me through a lot and is continually giving me knowledge. I’m thankful for this church and this series.
Khadijah M I also wish I knew this sooner. Before my years of 19 to 26. I did a lot of damage in those years. I'm still paying the price for today. My dad would even allow me to bring guys over and never tried to restrict my life or my choices. I didn't know better. I thought he was giving me freedom but all those nights I wasted clubbing and all the guys I had sex with, all of it I regret.
My prayers go out to anyone out there who are struggling with spiritual warfare on breaking soul ties
amennn
How do we break them :(
I'm 16 and I'm still a virgin. Temptation has been such a big impact in my life, I didn't know who to turn to and who to talk to because I was getting really tired of temptation but I'm glad that today it stops with me!! All love from South-Africa. May God bless yall and help you guys get through whatever yall are going through.
you not alone love,,,,,SA is saved

Yea, this is really inspiring.
its like God was like listen here Lorraine, we are going to address it today! This man says it as is and is so current and Now... God's standard does not change but society and the world has so we need to teach the truth and practically address it.
sabrina drakes hahahaha that's me every time I listen to Ps Mike lmao
Guuurrrrllllll.......... yes!!!!!!
GIIIIRRRLLLL!!!! 🤚🏾
Mann..I have listened to so many preachings on relationships and sex in my short life, but I can definitively say none can even come miles close to this series. Watching this and am thinking of all the family members I would love to share this series with..thank you brother man
All 6 of these messages have blessed & helped me in my #singleness!
I second that motion ma'am...Im just now viewing this series but its never too late right?
Celibate for 5 yrs and God is teaching me so much about myself and agape love!!!!! Trusting God for my husband.. This word is awesome all glory be to God.
Just Got married feb 5 th❤️
Wow congratulations
@@shinelleliverpool1145 awww thank you I got married in February Gods word is true❤️
@@christellembasha5405 thank you!!! God honored that I’ve been married for a year now
Wow, I've never heard up during one of these videos until now, Mike was speaking about things I thought not many people did, (sexting, Private thoughts, Lust in the Heart) Satan has been teaching me for almost 7 years that those things are not sins and are ok and just what humans do. THANK YOU JESUS for shinning the light in those areas in my private life! I finally understand what SURRENDER EVERYTHING means! Praise God!
Joe Rutherford amen brother
Michael you are a blessing
AMEN!!!
Praise GOD!♥️
Jus found these! I’m in awe right now lol
Leaving a bad and toxic relationship the night before. I woke up to a message leading me to this video and my life was instantly changed. It's so funny how god works. An Aunt that I rarely talk to sent me this video out the blue when I needed it most. Not only do I see things in a better light but I can honestly say that the battles that I have been dealing with ends today.
I’m in a relationship right now and this is leading me to end it but it still hurts to have to do that 😭😪
An aunt that you rarely talk to sent you the video leading to THIS sermon? Girl, I think from now on you need to talk to that aunt more often cause she obviously has a great spiritual love and care for you! ;-) My guess is that she was probably debating a little right before she sent it. "Should I send this to my niece at all? Will she receive it okay?" She then decided to take a leap of faith and answer the Lord's call and send you a link to the video and I'm SO glad she decided to answer the call! God Bless your aunt, you and pastor Mike! ;-)
Lauryn Christian Amen! By His stripes you are healed 🙌🏿
I’ve been listening to this series nonstop for the last 2 days and seriously I’m grateful for what the Lord has given you!! 🙌🏾
Marquia Tyler me tooooooo
smerfett1607 me three lol
Same here
Marquia Tyler I can't put this down. The message is so good!
YES YES YES !!
My wife and I are definitely going to make it a priority to talk about sex with our children as they grow up so that the first time they hear about it is not from their friends and on TV. We as Christians should not be scared about this topic, but excited because we can share with them how God created sex to be beautiful and used in the correct way!
I am SHOOKED.
This video truly helped me build a stronger foundation for how I view sexuality.
Being 21 and staying strong in my purity is so special to me and it builds so much character in my spirit!
I thank God for bringing me here and hearing this message!
23, virgin, waiting until im married
yana212 😩 God bless you! I have no regrets but if I could go back and become my virgin self again, I would keep it that way!
I know this is an old comment but I just found this series this week lol
I’m 22 and still waiting🙌🏾🙌🏾
I regret not waiting 😔 now i’m left with a very strong soul tie and a broken heart
@@fabi7296 God will restore your virginity. Repent of your sexual sin so that you don't live in regret once you ask for God's forgiveness. Once he has forgiven you, you will be set free from your past and the guilt and shame will be gone in Jesus name.
The scripture pastor read about Jesus bearing my iniquities and transgressions so that I can live in peace...😱. Took everything in me to not start balling
Sierra LaFaye girl I did, on the way to work. Sobbed my eyes/heart out.
Girl I opened the flood gates, it was too beautiful for me to contain.
Girl I’m doing the same thing. Can’t hold back
I feel you. 😭🙌💞
Sierra LaFaye Amen
I cried so much during the last few minutes of this video it touched my heart sooo much. I’ve had such a change of heart because of this video. 💕
"Whenever we come off the hallelujah, we're dealing with horniness." If that's not the truth I don't know what is! This man is really preaching to the generations. Thank you for allowing God to use you to encourage the lives of so many people. God bless you!
Amen ALEXIS LAUREN . yes he is preaching to these generation , my generation. Parents these days specially in church they just make you believe that sex is bad but will not sit you down and address the issues that need to be address.
This is the best sermon I’ve ever heard in my 21 years of living.
I’ve made a lot of mistakes in my past when it comes to relationships and sex, but I keep reminding myself that it is all apart of my testimony. All that I’ve been through has always led me back to God and for that I am forever grateful. God is so good! 🙏🏼🙌🏼 No sex until marriage! I wish I knew and understood all of these things in God’s word as a kid.
I agree I'm doing it all over again no sex til married! I'm praying for you as well Queen and me too keeps us covered in the name of Jesus 🙌🏾
I don’t whether it’s just me, but after this video...I cried and I felt the Holy Spirit fall upon me. This is definitely the beginning of the best days of our lives only if we trust in God. Thank you Lord for Your word. Thank you Pastor Mike.
Thank you Pastor Mike... I had a child at 16, (who is now 11),and l wish l had known then what l know now. I'm not trying not to take responsibility of my actions, but l was one of those who was just told "stay away from boys, sex is bad etc", and l wish my parents had actually sat down and explained the way you just did ( and many other sermons l've learnt from). l've been celibate for a while now, not because sex is bad but, because it's beautiful when it's done the right way. l'm also praying for wisdom to talk to my son about sex, & make him understand all of these things. God bless you!!
Chipo Hoyi Bless you Sis!😊 I too have an 11 year old, I was 18 when I gave birth to her. GOD is Amazing! I want you to stay encourage and know that HE is preparing us for our purpose and HE will also continue to guide and teach us how to teach our children what it means to live a life honorable to HIM. Be blessed!!
Chipo Hoyi
God bless you Chipo. I am also practicing celibacy. I got delivered and i am new creation.
God bless you🙏❤
Better late than never. This generation needs this teaching series!!!
I agree
In this generation, the abnormal has become the new normal. I have fallen so short that I disgust myself when looking at myself, I teared up listening to this sermon. I wish I could turn the hands of time to 12-13years ago when it all started. I am not proud of the sins I have committed but I believe God is taking me through a refining fire to purify me. I am just going to be faithful and focused. He was wounded and bruised for my transgressions and iniquity..... by His stripes, I am healed. Thank you pastor for allowing God use you to reach out to us without sugar-coating his word. God bless your ministry. Amen
i even regret kissing in relationships after watching this. I suggest that you repeat watching this ... because it gets more cemented in you
I have become addicted to the word of god bc of this series. I stumbled upon this as I was tacklin a broken heart last week and this has changed my life. Pastor Mike you are a gift to us all! I have watched for hours. Reading my bible... Excited about god and faith again. My favorite pastor by far. I now understand on my level and I can't wait to view more sermons. Thank you God for bringing me to the word.
This sermon needs to go viral...!!Everybody in the name of our Lord Jesus Christ spread this message..!!I can't stop sharing the link to this,and the devil is out there breaking his back trying to bury this generation under sexual sin,but no more.The church needs to speak out on this,end the silence and share God's clear definition and context of sex.
This generation needs Jesus,because in Him lies the true freedom.
Love.
Gladys Njeri are you in Nairobi? I wish he could just move here because there is no guidance in the churches. Plus people treat sex so casually. It's not funny.
Nyakarima King yes I am in Nairobi.Our churches don't even recognize the existence of sexual sin especially amongst young people until someone falls pregnant,then it'e evident.We(my fellow youths and I)in our local church will be discussing this on Friday 23rd March 2018 during a night prayer meeting,you're very welcome!We will also pray and break all and any soul ties or connections the devil has on them.Karibu
Gladys Njeri Hello. I am not well so I can't make it. I live in Sweden and I have trained myself on keeping yourself pure. I came here in early December and found out how sex is prevalent among Christian singles. It shocked me. I have been sharing his videos to everyone I know. Please show the videos in your church. My email is nyakarimaking@gmail.com. Get in touch.
he needs to write a book!!!!! ive been listening to this series back to back and im just dumbfounded. thank god i discovered this!
Mary Anne Nano This series is AMAZINGGGGG !!!
it is! i didn't want it to end! :(
His book, Relationship Goals, comes out 4/28/2020.
ME TOO I'VE WATCHED ALL 6 TODAY ALONE 😭👏🏽😲😱❤☺️🙆♀️💯❤
I still have 2 more to go. ❤ This is everything I needed to hear!
I wish 19 year old me could've watched this almost ten years ago, but I'm even more grateful for it now in this season of celibacy. People may look at me sideways, but I trust God because He made us, and knows us best.
I feel so naked listening to this and felt it was meant for me I have requested celibacy in my relationship, two days before listening to this god spoke to me. my life is not my own its god's and im thankful for this transformation
My pillow is soaking wet from the many times I cried through this sermon. I have to sit down and watch this whole series with my son. This has just changed my life forever. Thank you for letting God use you. You’re appreciated
This word was one of the best sermons I've ever heard in my life. Thank you.
The Hood Goddess This word is what you call a Rhema word a right now word from the heavenly father
I think so too! This was my favorite sermon out of the whole Relationship Goals series so far!!
Honestly so grateful!!!! I am 20 and have never learned any of these things. I’ve been saved for four years and now I’m learning it. But Glory to God. So thankful to be exposed to this message and church!
Wow..the devil was nowhere when it was just Adam and God;he showed up when he saw the unity of man and woman....this is deep pastor Todd
This made me realize that I need to keep knowing that my worth is more important then trying to please anybody else’s needs and wants.
Finally, I get to see a pastor that’s preaching the truth instead those businessmen claimed to be pastor tell people what they want to hear like “ blessings is coming, God gonna do this ,,, bla bla “ what this pastor is preaching is exactly what our generation needs to hear .
When you deal with sexual sin, it allows other kinds of spirit to join you. I am so blessed this week with these series. May Continue to use you as a vessel for this generation.
Come on Pastor Mike! Literally brought to tears when he asked "So how many times have you made God say "I Do" when you didn't? If bringing your sins right to your face doesn't make you want to change for the Lord then I don't know what will - It was like I felt that pain immediately that God feels when we do this, crazy humbling. I'm not even through the video and feel compelled to comment. Pastor Mike is going to save a LOT OF SOULS. Pastor Mike is a blessing.
I am 20 and a virgin and I plan to stay that way till I get married
After 34 years, now I see that sex is not an evil thing. It's not the sex which is the sin, it's the separating after sex. There is a difference between a wedding and a marriage. A marriage is when two become one flesh, a wedding is a legal recognition of the union of sex and covenant.
This message series is so good. I had my 12 yr old listen to some of the sermons. She understood what he was saying and said she gets it. This is a series that all churches need to do.. Bless you Pastor Mike
Wait, who else feels like everyone in the comments section should just come together to talk or something. Maybe some worship, some word cos yall are beautiful children of God I would love to fellowship with
Obayanju Damilare agreed!
Obayanju Damilare agreed!
Amen ❤️🙏🏽
Agreed♥️
Agreed
It's about time that this subject has been talked about in church. We need to hear this as a people!
I got married at 23, but got divorced almost 8 years later. I’ve been single since 2018, and haven’t been sexually actively since my divorce. I believe God is keeping me for someone special. Sex is such a powerful and precious thing. I am looking forward to meet that special man God has been saving me for… We can remain pure, ladies. May the Lord help you in your weakest moments!!
I love my singleness because I know that there is more work to be done on me by God and more to learn than I know now and this series helped me get comfortable with that.
I'm addicted to his sermons.
This is giving me wisdom, but is also making my faith grow bigger! Now days, we kinda forgot of the power of our God. Most of the time we don't open our true struggles and problems to him because we don't remember how powerful He is, and that there is NOTHING above Him. Nothing that He can't fix or do. There is NOTHING that can stop Him.
And this series is remembering me of this wonderful thing about my Dad. Thank you! I need to share this with everybody!
This has changed my life am 20yrs still a virgn and am proud of myself😍
Started my celibacy journey. I love you God. ❣️ I’m saving it this round .
I love how he explains this. I wish my church would be more open to speaking to singles about this. Instead of just wait. What should we do in our wait? What I do to fit off lust? I appreciate this relationship goals series.
I’m 17 and Is on this journey and I know it won’t be easy. However I know I can do anything through Christ who strengthens me and that alone gives me hope. I have many people my age older and younger, even Christians laugh at the idea of celibacy and me taking it serious but I know it is for the best and won’t take their comments to heart.
Shalomie Brown I’m going to keep praying on you young lady! God bless this young lady right here!!!!!
Shalomie Brown stay pure Sister
I am so much clearer on sex. I wish i had watched this video before i gave up my virginity. But now i know, so i surrender my sexuality to the only one Living God ( Jehova). Thanks so much Pastor Mike. Thank God for You. Thank You Transformation Church.... Thank You.
What I love about Pastor Micheal’s sermons is that he keeps it 100% real, every single time! Makes it so relatable to todays society! and I think that’s what is lacking in many churches of today!
steffy mulan I definitely agree with you
I don't regret having sex. I simply know now that I must wait until marriage before it happens again. Which I'm happily willing to do so and have kept true. Im glad my Father above has altered my mind to know I don't need to follow the world's push on sex ever again. Or anything of the world. It truly warms my heart knowing Jesus has forgiven me of my sins, even the sexual ones. To those that are still virgins bless your heart, stay strong knowing The Lord of Host gots you, but I must warn, don't think you're better than others though. That goes for everyone, don't think you're better just because of His calling, keep it humble, keep it meek, keep it Christ. For those of you that aren't virgins, don't beat yourself up, ask the Holy Ghost to be with you on your new journey of abstinence, truly know you have been forgiven and know you don't have to follow the world and be of it. God Bless. Keep faith. Keep fighting the good fight. Yeshua Loves you so very much.
I can own my sinful past because I'm proud of what Christ has done to change me. Amen.
❤️
Same i have made mistakes i pray God breaks the soul ties for me
I was recently exposed to Transformation Church and I had to come back to watch relationship goals because pastor mike just started relationship goals reloaded. But boyyy I thought I was ready for a relationship and he’s been dragging me since the first sermon. This has open my eyes and heart to things that I’ve pushed away from for a long time. All I can say is thank you God.
My God he's preachingggggg!!! Thank you Lord!!!!
Preach Pastor!!!! This makes me want to gather all the middle-school aged children of our church to talk to them about sex before the are fully exposed to the pervaded version of sex at school. God is good.
More people should watch this video, the church needs healing from sexual immorality!!!
Powerful, all thanks to Pastor Todd for walking in his God-given purpose. 🙏💓
I've struggled with sexual sin for over 10 years, and it ends now! I will not let these iniquities carry over to my next generation, and it starts with the cross! Praise Jesus for what he's done for me!!!!
Maaan this is so real. He didn't tell not one lie. So eye opening. Young people need this.
Preach, teach, speak pastor. This is a series I am sharing to every single and married person I know. I have enjoyed all these messages thus far
45:04 has me in tears this is the greatest message I have ever witnessed. God bless you Pastor Mike and God bless you friends who are struggling like I am with this sin. By his stripes we are HEALED in the name of JESUS!!

He is a realest pastor he changed my life he made me tear up

In my 26years of life, this is the best sermon i’ve ever heard about Sex. No lies told and everything is backed up with scriptures and God’s word never lies! I’m blessed to have come across these relationship goals series and my life has changed forever🙏🏼🙏🏼
All glory to God!! I've shared these videos with my friends, sister, and even my parents. I'm breaking these chains. I'm breaking the cycles, I will not surrender to the world, I will stand against it because the Lord of the universe is with me. No greater love ❤ at his feet, no place I would rather be.
I wish I could go to this church, I have a lot I need to discuss
Marinique1989 me too!
You have it find someone to talk to even if you can’t go to this church. He’s right the enemy always counts on you staying quiet. I felt the same way but when I reached a good friend helped me. God will place people in your life that will help.
I know you posted this a while ago, but I'm sure you could find a church in your city/area that has people you would be able to talk to!
I know me too :) love the transparency and unity! God is using this pastor and congregation in amazing beautiful ways for Gods glory! 🙏🙌
Girl you dont need to go church welcome him back into your day he knows you and he wants you to say you know he nos yoh he loves you x
You are changing a generation! God bless you
this made me cried a lot!! I wish I found this series years ago but I know God led me to this.. so thank you Lord. And thank you pastor for this message. God Bless you.
I'm a 33 year old single woman and I'm still a virgin. I've had some close calls, but I am glad God has still given me the strength to keep waiting. It is so difficult to wait. But this message is encouraging.Thank you Pastor Mike for your honest transparency in this sermon. God Bless you and your ministry.
This my first time seeing this guy and I done spiritually joined his church! 😂🙏😂🙏
89skeezy me too
Wow You found your purpose and it is to reach out to this broken world... you touched me and this adds value to my singleness chapter in life ❤️❤️❤️Thank you and bless you
God is raising this young man, and his church. Glory to God. We need churches to preach... Ive watched 3 series I'm hooked lol. God bless and keep them!
This series is blessing me! Thank you so much. I decided to watch this series for 8 weeks and to watch a sermon a week. I deleted all my dating apps, and I put myself on a social media cleanse. Let me tell you, I am truly getting a blessing from it! My relationship with God is growing, and I feel amazing! I am so grateful to have found this channel, because I was definitely feeling broken at the beginning of my journey, but “by his stripes I am healed!”🙌🏾🙌🏾 God bless you Pastor Todd
I am healed 😭😭😭 I am not broken, I am healed... I feel the presence of the lord 👏🙌
This message brought tears to my eyes. There is truly freedom in the name of Jesus and I pray each and everyone of us walks in that. BREAK THE CYCLE. BREAK THE CHAINS. In Jesus name!!
This entire series has healed me.. set me up right and now I have a new spirit. I've been questioning everything and I feel in this season God is simply answering me. I am soooooo grateful! I truly feel free now! This series is literally God sent 🙌🏾
Pastor Mike this series has completely changed me from the inside out, and I cannot wait to go watch part 7 and 8. My understandings of what relationships and sex were created to look like are so much clearer now. I can not begin to explain how grateful I am for finding these videos, I swear everybody should watch them because they 100% will change your life!
This changed my life! I am a 21 year old girl in her season in singleness, trying to grow closer to God and understand what He has planned for me right now. Hearing Pastor Mike confirm to me how important it is to have that container and trust God has helped me so much. This series was one of the greatest things I've ever heard. God Bless & thank you!!
3AM and God just broke into my heart, and began my healing and deliverance. I had given myself away to married man, because I didn't think there was any use of me being pure since I was sexually abused when I was young, and also that I thought God was denying me good things. I got bruised, badly bruised. I got vulnerable and exposed myself to people that I shouldn't have. but I am grateful to Abba. I am going to listen to this series over and over and overr and over and over again
This sermon had me and my husband speechless and in a reflective state. Thank you for keeping it real about this topic. Now we know.
This is one of the most powerful videos I've ever heard. It has transcended sex and began to step into other areas of the life of believers. The key is RELATIONSHIP has less to do with wife, friends and family (World view) and more to do with God, Jesus and the Holy Spirit (Word view). Michael Todd continue allowing the Holy Spirit to speak by you brother!
This video seriously inspired me. I have been living in sexual sin in different ways for 10 years (since a young age). Pastor Mike has an incredible gift given to him from God for speaking, inspiring, and encouraging others to follow the path God has planned for them. I was crying halfway through until the end because his words resonated truth in my heart. It's funny how God will put videos or messages that you need to hear across your path at just the right moment because He knows that you need to hear them.
I just finished the Stronger series and in the last sermon, Pst Todd tells a story of how the relationship goals series went viral and he noted it as a benchmark in the growth and strength of the church. In this series within the first minute he says "This series will be used a benchmark in the growth of our church". God is good, he truly knows the beginning from the end!
I'm Muslim but I'm so thankful for Pastor Mike and Natalia
I usually listen to my usual speakers like TD Jakes and Devon Franklin and I have never seen or scrolled passed any of your videos but I believe God purposely put this series in my feed because of the place I’m in my life. We need young people to break down the message for the current world we live in. I thank god for u as I r truly anointed by god thank u for being a living vessel to speak to us Pastor Mike. Keep doing what you are doing
I came across this teaching by chance but l believe God led me here. I dont know who this man of God is but lam touched and blessed. I surrender all to you my creator.
It cannot be any clearer than this, the truth is being fully revealed. Sex outside the container God created, which is marriage, produces extreme damages. If we trully trully want to experience the best God has for us in this life let's then stop fooling ourselves, start believing God and do what He says.
As someone who has failed sexually, I can tell you that Michael Todd is not lying about the destructive power of sexual immorality by any means.
But PRAISE GOD for all the healing that is available for those who have fallen in this way. Though our souls be wounded, the Lord binds up the afflicted heart that comes to Him in brokenness. What a good God we serve, and though this sin is a part of my past, the Lord has brought me through the dark chasm that sexual immorality will bring you to, and I have never been more satisfied in my singleness!!!! :) What a glorious time to spend yourself on the people of the Church! Wait on the Lord, beloved.
@@pastormichaeltodd7454 With all due respect to you, my friend, can you give me an objective foundation upon which you base these claims to 'revelation'? We are commanded in Scripture to test every spirit, to see whether they are from God, for many false prophets have gone out into the world, deceiving many (1 John 4:1). Therefore, we are not to believe everything that claims to be from, or of the Lord. This command presupposes an objective foundation upon which to test these spirits. Therefore, you must provide me with this foundation in order to prove that what you're saying is of the Lord, and not of your own subjective feelings of intuition, peace, or what you think you see or don't see.
I also would love to caution you, for your own sake, as well as the sake of the flock that you oversee. I myself fell pray to seductive spirits in the former ways I walked, believing it was God who spoke, when in reality it was not. This wrought great devastation in my life and in the lives of others around me.
Yet, through this hellish destruction, God brought me to a place where I discovered the doctrines of the Sufficiency of Scripture, the Perspicuity of Scripture, and the Providence of God; among others. These doctrines have radically changed the way I live my life in worship to Him. I now serve Him, not based upon what I *feel*, but what I *know*, based upon His written, objective, absolute, and eternal Word. There is no subjectivity in that. There is absolute peace, and absolute confidence in this, for I *know* I walk obediently to Him through it.
I now am able to serve as a pastor of a small flock, and the joy that it brings me to be a conduit for His Word, rightly handled, is beyond my description. I also know, as I'm sure you do too, that we who teach will be judged with much greater severity (James 3), therefore it is incumbent upon me to warn you - in love, my dear brother - that you will be held to account for every soul you lead astray. Well intentioned, or not.
Hell is filled with people who had good intentions. Remember that, dear brother. Let that truth be sobering to you.
That said, I appreciate the heart behind your post, and I pray you will look to His objective, written Word as the only foundation for your life and ministry, as you lead both. Blessings, dear brother.
GOD Knows that I love how you tell the truth. Pastor Michael Todd, I'm the same way. You have to be direct with the GOD given Truth. No one can be helped until they learn to be real with themselves.
