I'm an indian and 21 yrs.... My bf broke up with me yesterday because his parents came to know about us...... Today is my birthday and this video made me realise that Jesus will find me a man of God and I'm not supposed to rush things
I'm too indian born 2004, my parents came to know that I've been in love with a girl who comes to church, I don't know the reason why she loves me, and past few weeks my parents ban me to go to the church at evening because my gf comes at evening, so I'll go on early morning to church now at present, my parents said that she is a bad one, so dont love her But right now I vanished from her eyes but see her going to church, I vanished from her eyes because I wish her not to come into my toxic family , So now im living a life simply, if anybody hurts me ill smile, thats my situation right now🥲
I am so sorry to hear you are going through a break-up right now. I know that can be really hard. I am praying for the love and presence of God to fill your heart and heal any pain you are experiencing🙏 Also, Happy Birthday! I am so glad this video was encouraging to you. God has an amazing man of God in store for you in the future. You will be so glad you waited for God's best🥰 Much love to you sister🫶
@@evansap2616 Hey brother, I am sorry to hear what you are going through right now. That is a tough situation. Check out my video about dysfunctional families if you would like. It may help. God has amazing plans for your life, and even toxic family can't get in the way of God's goodness for you as long as you continue to seek and listen to Him. You can break generational curses and even be a light to your family now. We are praying for you🙏
Another important piece of advice I’ve learned. Is as a men you don’t need to look for a woman because the devil will send you as many as you want. But you need to pry for God to send you one and in his time he will and when this person is sent you will learn something very important or you will have a partner forever
Yes, it is not about just any person but the right person. God gives us wisdom and peace to know them when they come across our path in His perfect timing🙏
Amen!! Thank you!! I am 19 years old and this was helpful! I don’t know if I’m really ready to date right now but I’m trusting the lord and praying for my future husband ❤️😌🙏🏻✝️🙌🏻
There is something really pure I see in both of your eyes especially the way you both look at each other I pray that you have long and fulfilling marriage adventures ✝️
I'm so glad this encouraged you🫶 Therefore if any man be in Christ, he is a new creature: old things are passed away; behold, all things are become new. -2 Corinthians 5:17✝🙌
I’ve been looking for a girl for so long, but only recently did I realize that I was not yet the man of God that I need to be to properly lead and take care of one of His daughters. If God were to bring that girl into my life right now, I would probably lose her. Now is the time for me, and many other young men, to focus on aligning with Him first and foremost.
Hello, Victoria here(21yrs). I’m so glad I’ve come across this channel I know GOD led me here. A year and some change ago I gave my life to CHRIST and have not been in a relationship nor sex for that period. I’ve come to love GOD so much and I only want a man that is from HIM that represents HIM, unfortunately I haven’t met anybody like that but I know at the proper time of GOD he shall come, and we shall share that beautiful view and version of CHRIST’s love and marriage ❤ I pray for all of you my sisters and brothers in CHRIST, let’s continue to b strong in th LORD
God bless you Victoria! I pray that you have a fulfilling journey with God, even when weathering storms, and that you will meet the right guy that God has planned for you! From another sister in Christ, 22 🤍
I love what your husband said about the death of one's self and how the black suit represents that kind of death! That's beautiful and I've never thought of it that way!
I just meet this girl who is 2 years older than me and I heard some people say that she does some bad things like drink alcohol and swear. But we have hung out like four times and I have not seen anything those people are talking about. I trust you guys to tell me what the best thing for me to do. I don’t know if I should proceed in this relationship. Thanks for being consistent on your videos and help us we love you and hope you have a blessed marriage.
Great question! I would be direct and ask her what she thinks about drinking and swearing. Does she have a relationship with Jesus? Does she want to honor God with her life? Or is she hiding an alternative lifestyle from you? Also, who are these people that are telling you these things? Are they trustworthy? How well do they know her? Do they genuinely care about you both, or are they trying to create division between you and her for some reason? We have seen it go both ways: 1) Our friend dated someone who drank and swore in private, and after some time, they could not hide it any longer. Their relationship ended due to being unequally-yoked. 2) Our friend was dating a godly girl, but someone started to slander her because they were jealous of the relationship. When the person creating division was exposed for lying, their relationship continued because they had been equally-yoked. Definitely ask God for discernment and continue to ask the right questions to all parties so that you can find the truth and go from there. We are praying for you🙏 So glad these videos have been helpful for you!
My brother and sister in Christ, I can't tell you how glad I am to have found your channel... thanks the Lord for your life and for what are you doing here, sharing biblical truth!! May Jesus bless you!!
God has me in preparation, I was recently engaged but God called me out because he was not leading us in Gods timing. I am now open to these discussions because I’ve tried it my way a million times and failed each time. LADIES, if you do not feel you can submit to this man, he is not your husband, at least not now. Find a man who’s worth submitting to, who is respectable, or else he will end up leading you into sin!
I have to ask, what would you do as a man and woman who are working on yourselves, and you’ve had issues, with impurity, with lying, with non communication, and troubles communicating, traumas and other issues in the relationship, and you both know god has called you to each other, after numerous prayers and numerous confirmations of that, but feel like you can’t trust one another, but there’s love and life a good spiritual growth we are just in this space of in between the hurt and forgiveness and the peace from god,about the relationship but the relationship is rocky in the moment
Praise God! What a blessing to be used by Him🙌 We bless you and your future wife and pray for an increase in the wisdom and love of God in your life as you prepare yourself for her🙏
Could you make a video about marriage and divorce. I see a lot of people online get trapped in marriages with abusive partners, unloving partners, etc.
Very important and useful i so needed this may the LORD our God bless you all abundantly forever and always in JESUS mighty and precious name Amen🙏🏽❤️🫂✝️
ok so basically my friend has a friend she used to do karate w and his friend goes to my church and apparently he wanted my num and he say me on socials so my friend set us up and we’ve been talking for two weeks tmrw and it’s amazinggg and i think i have a crush but a couple days ago he texted me and said that he couldn’t date til he’s 16 (im 13 he’s 14) and his mom wouldn’t let him come to my church, but we’re still talking, we don’t have a plan but i like him and both of us wanna meet eachother cs we’ve never met but idk when or where soo yeah idek, and i js need advice, ive never felt this way before where i wanna continue smt even if i can’t date them or if ill have to wait so idek what to do or what im doing🤷♀️
How do I tell someone I can’t go further in a relationship with someone because I’m a Christian and he’s not? I’m going on my first date tomorrow with him and I know it’s just the first date but my biggest non negotiable is that my future boyfriend/ husband has to be s Christian and so if he’s not I don’t know how to tell him I can’t date him
I've been in a similar situation myself, except it was an emotional relationship. I struggled a lot daily knowing that the guy I cared about and loved wasn't saved. I shared the Gosepel with him and awnsered questions he had, gave him a Bible. But one day after a while of praying to God if this guy was the one I truly wanted to have a relationship with and possibly be married to and I got an awnser. I ended the emotional relationship that I had with the guy. I'll say this if you know the person is not a follower of Christ and isn't equally yoked, don't waste time trying to have a relationship with him. You can share the gospel with them, but ultimately in the end it's the person's decision to accept God into their heart, or to not. But my best advice is if you know that you can't go any further in a relationship because they aren't equally yoked and saved, be upfront with them and tell them why. No matter how you put it, it will still hurt they're feelings but it's better to be upfront and honest with someone before you have an emotional connection with someone, rather than not telling them and then feeling stuck. I hope this helps, God bless you ❤
Haven't found an answer. The Bible touches it only in the story with Onan. For me removing the potential to create a new soul when having sex (in marriage) is a sin. Can yall tell me what you think cause i think it's common sense to be a sin but it's pretty hard.
The context of Onan's story is him refusing to fulfil a responsibility of preserving his brother's lineage. It has nothing to do with removing the potential to create a new soul, while that might have happened, that was not the focus of the story or the reason God took his life
Can you guys create a platform for meeting ppl as Christians? I think it’s impossible to meet someone without becoming a person of the world (superficial dating values)
Thank you for asking! Praying in tongues is not a requirement for a godly relationship. We were just giving examples of some things to look out for to see if the person you are getting to know/dating is living a godly lifestyle and has a relationship with Jesus. If you are interesting in learning more about how to pray in tongues, feel free to check out this video on Gabe's channel: th-cam.com/video/5VIER3QRc2s/w-d-xo.htmlsi=a9inQ_WD6L817X-W
@allypoirot another question,.... I heard of this saying how a man of God focused on God and a woman of God focused on God, and then "God brought them together." Like, what does that even mean and look like in real life, like I'm trying to understand what that looks like in real life, do I have to mingle with people to find that woman of God, or does God will literally bring you two together like for example one day they both walk right into each other ?............... if that makes sense ?
@oluwafemiadedoyin9175 Thank you so much for replying back, one of my biggest fears is missing out on what God has for me, and I never knew it because of the free will we have, I appreciate it, and I will stay consistent!
@@ChrissyChrisFPV Great question! To be honest, the details of how God brings you and your spouse together will look different from couple to couple. Gabe and I met through Instagram. Basically what that means is before you get married, develop your relationship with God. Learn to hear His voice. Learn His will for your life. Ask Him why He made you. What talents, interests, and gifts has He given you that you can use to love Him and to love the people around you? This will get you better positioned to find someone who is running with you. If Gabe and I had never sought the Lord and listened to Him when He told us individually to make Christian content online, my husband and I most likely would never have found one another. I hope this helps. I give my personal testimony about this concept here: th-cam.com/video/y742b3DvUfo/w-d-xo.html
In 2 Corinthians 6:14-18 it speaks about how important it is to be equally yoked. It is extremely vital to have the same religion with a potential spouse as religion is the moral compass. Also God should be the foundation in your relationship. If only one side of a house has a firm foundation, the house will fail. In addition, submission is key in a godly marriage. If one person has different morals than the other than true submission cannot happen.
I don't agree that getting married is "death". It's a time of celebration. But we will have to die, as we do have to today, too, yes. But I disagree. Marriage is to be happy and celebration! It's festive and happy! ANd the honey moon comes next! I rebuke that lie! Christ doesn't say that when He gets married to us on the banquet day that He will wear black. he's going to wear His robe, dipped in blood when He comes. I don't know which clothes He'll wear on the marriage day. But it's going to be a banquet. Thanks for all the other helpful info, though! Thanks.
I think their intent referring marriage to as death was meant to imply that marriage is a sacrifice (the greatest sacrifice being Jesus death on the cross).
I’m sorry, I just don’t like this dynamic. Men are imperfect (as women are as well) but the full responsibility of the marriage cannot be placed on the man. There are two individuals in a relationship and both need to be present to make it work. Both parties sacrifice for the other and both parties sacrifice for their children. You can pull general wisdom from the Bible, but remember *when* the book was written. What were the social norms influencing this wisdom? What about the social norms of those who did the translating? The woman is not subservient to the man. We have moved past that point of our history. I’m happy the both of you love each other, it’s obvious you do. I hope one day to find that for myself. But I refuse to be her master and take full responsibility for her thoughts, feelings, and actions. If she is a woman in Christ she will be on her own journey, wrestling with her own angel. Her faith will be the iron I can sharpen my own faith with, and I hers. 6:10 “To submit to him is to submit to God” No, it isn’t. He is just a man. An imperfect, fragile human being who experiences the same insecurities and emotions as the rest - just as Jesus must have.
In order for you to have a "Godly relationship", both of you will need to save your virginity for marriage and never do it with anyone else until the "Till death do we part" vow is fulfilled. If you have already had sex with someone before or have been divorced but not widowed then you can forget about the whole "Godly Marriage" thing.
I'm a widow. I and my late husband saved ourselves for marriage and were both virgins. It was worth the wait. I see no reason to not do that again. I have been celibate since his death, though I did have one relationship, and there are a number of things in these videos that confirms that he was not right for me. There WAS pressure, there WERE questions like "what if we're not sexually compatible" and we could've gotten married quickly but I am so thankful I still took my time. So there is hope for a godly relationship and potentially godly re-marriage, but if that doesn't come I can learn to be fulfilled in life too
I get where you’re coming from. However, God forgives us, that’s why He sent Jesus to pay for our sins. If people have done it before marriage, they cannot change the past. If they repent and ask for God’s forgiveness, then they are forgiven. If they follow His Word, then they can wait until they get married. Sex shouldn’t be the goal for marriage (I’m guilty of thinking this). But if they are to do it, it should be after marriage.

Having a Godly relationship should be a priority for you as a 30+ Christian single woman. This is awesome 👏🏾

What type of questions should be asked?

What about dating someone from a different religion.
In 2 Corinthians 6:14-18 it speaks about how important it is to be equally yoked. It is extremely vital to have the same religion with a potential spouse as religion is the moral compass. Also God should be the foundation in your relationship. If only one side of a house has a firm foundation, the house will fail. In addition, submission is key in a godly marriage. If one person has different morals than the other than true submission cannot happen.
Please come to the orthodox church

Her faith will be the iron I can sharpen my own faith with, and I hers.
6:10
“To submit to him is to submit to God” No, it isn’t. He is just a man. An imperfect, fragile human being who experiences the same insecurities and emotions as the rest - just as Jesus must have.
I highly encourage your to read Ephesians 5!!
Thank you for this 🙏🏼🤍
In order for you to have a "Godly relationship", both of you will need to save your virginity for marriage and never do it with anyone else until the "Till death do we part" vow is fulfilled. If you have already had sex with someone before or have been divorced but not widowed then you can forget about the whole "Godly Marriage" thing.
God forgives your sins when you repent, a real Christian would know that...
I'm a widow. I and my late husband saved ourselves for marriage and were both virgins. It was worth the wait. I see no reason to not do that again. I have been celibate since his death, though I did have one relationship, and there are a number of things in these videos that confirms that he was not right for me. There WAS pressure, there WERE questions like "what if we're not sexually compatible" and we could've gotten married quickly but I am so thankful I still took my time. So there is hope for a godly relationship and potentially godly re-marriage, but if that doesn't come I can learn to be fulfilled in life too
If you are reborn and truly repent it is absolutely possible to have a godly marriage. Think about the story of Hosea.
I get where you’re coming from. However, God forgives us, that’s why He sent Jesus to pay for our sins. If people have done it before marriage, they cannot change the past. If they repent and ask for God’s forgiveness, then they are forgiven. If they follow His Word, then they can wait until they get married. Sex shouldn’t be the goal for marriage (I’m guilty of thinking this). But if they are to do it, it should be after marriage.
