    i have been struggling and i didnt plan on watching this full video so i skipped towards the end and im so glad i even tapped on this video. its so easily so forget that God is our source. the part where you talked about finding your purpose really hit me. ive been so stuck on not knowing what my purpose is that i forget that i can ask for guidance and answers. also the parts on discipline and denying your flesh was really important to me as its so easy to fall into temptations without realizing through God we can avoid these things. thank you so much for this video. im going to watch the full thing and take notes. blessings

    You really don’t know how much your personal examples of what praying continually throughout the day looks like helped me! I have to remind myself that k can pray anytime and it doesn’t have to always be a specific time or long and drawn out each time but that even GIVING THANKS is prayer 🥲

    I have been very intentional on spending time with God this week and he has shown up and shown out. Whatever I prayed to God for help with I literally open my Bible its there, then the Glorify app reflection is about the same scripture with the same issue I prayed about (which I had just downloaded). That verse you mentioned about God giving us a way to escape our temptations I have been meditating on that scripture asking the Holy Spirit for understanding and here it is. Thank you Leah for letting God use you.

    Yes, we have to discipline ourselves at first and stick with it then it becomes like second nature, and it won’t feel right if we don’t do whatever it is(read the Bible, Pray etc). I like the part on the movie War Room where Liz first started off praying, she had a hard time doing it BUT after she disciplined herself she didn’t hardly want to come out closet, it became easy for her and she enjoyed it AND look how her life changed. Getting a closer relationship with God, reading His Word, Praying and just spending time with Him, IT WILL CHANGE YOUR LIFE‼️It took me awhile to get here🙌🏽

    When you say listening to the Holy Spirit- is it an audible voice for you? Or a feeling? I get confused even when good things come into my mind whether that was me or God and if God actually speaks words in our mind- what do you think?

    • @0hSoBlessed
      @0hSoBlessed 2 ปีที่แล้ว

      Does it line up with God's word? Then it usually is, does it sound like a thought youd have or a strange thought that lines up with God's word. Alot of time the thoughts I get I'm like God never think like that and plus it's also lines up with his word I know its him but ALWAYS ask for confirmation he will confirm hes not a God of confusion.

  • @Samantharichie1986

    One thing I am struggling with is the passage in the Bible where it basically talks about a second marriage as being a sin. I cheated on my first husband, and he wanted a divorce. I did not want the divorce, but he did. I am not proud of this. I am now remarried to a wonderful husband and we have a son together. I don't want to live in sin, but I also dont want to leave my husband, especially since we have a son. I have prayed over this, and even asked God to remove my second husband if he should not be in my life.

    • @tylerfranklin967
      @tylerfranklin967 2 ปีที่แล้ว +4

      Hi Vlog girl. Grace and peace to you. I will say, divorcing your second husband is not the answer. Repentance is (which it seems like you already have) . While God does not condone divorce, it is not an unforgivable sin. Honor God with what you have now. He is graceful enough to forgive your previous transgressions. I would encourage you to just stay in the word, stay in prayer and continue to honor your husband biblically which honors Jesus. 🤍🤍🤍

    You should not need to read a book to walk the path of the holy one as one would say I walk in contentment with peace Harmony love and understanding known all shall be well with All Creatures Great and Small it is only man that is destructive with life and words there'was onewritten by the holy one and that was the Ten Commandments.
