One day David, I am gonna give you a big ol hug. You are such a gifted teacher. Man, I can not tell you the freedom I felt breaking through because of this message. WOW! You really help me to understand how complete I am in Christ. Fear can not live there. In this place. In Christ. Just peace and contentment and LOVE 🙏❤️🙏 I fall more and more in love with the Lord understanding more and more what He accomplished for us on the Cross. Love you brother. Thank you.
At my old false religion people would say " The Lord told me..." and it was usually a way to manipulate an outcome being convinced by a "feeling". But in my experience, It's very hard to explain when something is from the Lord because it's not necessarily a feeling but a knowing. It's shift from your own dull thinking to some quick glance at a higher thought and at that point you know it's from God because it was nice and brilliant and obvious and comforting. Then you try to hold on to it before you forget. It's like when you're reading the bible and a scripture you've read many times, suddenly has life and is more clear. It's layered, like a lasagna, digging down deeper past the cheese into the noodles that you knew were there but didn't realize you'd been just nibbling on the surface. I enjoy your videos. I like that you are practical and are genuine and grounded in scripture. It's evident that you have hashed a lot out with the Lord.
I can never claim God told me this or that, I just ask him by faith to give me understanding of topics he wants me to share, then follow up on things that come to mind and find out later that it edified and encouraged people who needed it at that moment, or someone else came to the same conclusions separately confirming the message. Then I know I was led by the Holy Spirit. It's completely by faith, I can't claim anything up front.
I'm at 8:38 and need to comment how much grace this has given me already. It brings me so much joy and intimacy with God knowing He is working with us, teaching us, talking to us and having every interaction we have with Him tailored specifically to how He created us and our unique personality vs coming to us as a stranger or something seperate from us, and how we can see that in scripture as a New Testament revelation because we now have the Spirit of God in us through faith and made one with Him. Thank you David
Many times I've been thinking of something ín the Bible and then you make a video about it. I love how the Holy Spirit works. God Bless brother David.❤️
This really helped me, DB. I always felt like I was being rebellious if I felt any type of shrinking back from what someone said the Lord told them. And I also see how this is often used by those in ministry. I'm sure some have genuinely been lead by the Spirit to speak certain things, but I would say most would not pass the test you described in this video. Discernment has sharpened greatly over the past year with help from teachings like this one.
Amen and amen. Bondage is never a good thing, the Lord came to save and redeem all of us as His children. Fellowship is a key factor, with the leading of the Holy Spirit. Thy Word is a Lamp unto my feet and a light unto my path. Much love to you and yours, may He always bless you and keep and make His Holy Face to shine upon you. Hallelujah, amen and amen.
Thank you for sharing this message. It's so comforting to me when you explain these life things situations in the christian life.. I have a very dear friend who is the only one I can fellowship and also be objective about things... but I can't help but cringe when he says the "Spirit impressed upon my heart." I love him dearly, and he is authentic, but I still cringe... and you're so right because I did feel as if he's implying he's more special🤦♀️ I felt that weirdness, but I just let it go... I wanted to roll my eyes, lol. This is so real.
Ok, i hope i don't sound like a stalker or anything, but The Lord keeps leading me back to you and your videos i think. When i hear you speak, i can tell that your heart is TRULY centered and grounded wholly in Him. The things you teach are the things that keep getting revealed to me in my heart/spirit? Like, i am understating the deep teachings of God. I am 41 years old and am now to the end of myself i think, i hope. Anyway, i totally appreciate the lessons you CORRECTLY teach and you do it in such an encouraging, kind and loving way.... It makes me want to hug you! I feel hope!!! I still struggle with a LOT, but i what i do know is that i LOVE, LOVE, LOVE Jesus and want just Him.... Like you, i too am visual. I feel He tends to speak to me through symbols, numbers, my heart and His Word deep into my spirit/heart where i feel an impression that forms a mental image? Speaking of conscience, mine is very strong. I am troubled because i was not faithful to my husband and never told him and am afraid to. My question to you sir is, what will happen to me if I don't tell him what i have done? Thank you Brother. I really get fed watching your videos.....God BLESS you in Jesus' Holy Name!
Hi the first thing is to stand clearly on justification by faith and to know how to have peace with God by faith in Jesus Christ. Nothing you do will be of any effect until you know you're accepted in the Beloved. Then based on your relationship with the Lord and the peace you have with him you can be free to share and open up. We don't do these things to get peace with God we do these things because we have peace with God
@@davidbenjamininchrist yes! This is where He has brought me recently! I tell Jesus EVERYTHING, especially the not so good stuff in me. I don't hide from Him. My husband was kinda violent with me in the past and he always says to me "stop living in thr past...." The problem is that he never wants to discuss the marriage. We don't evn fight anymore because i literally don't have the strength for it. I believe I am in an abusive marriage, or was. He seems to have calmed down alot, but he's had 2 strokes and i have had thyroid cancer. I feel like he would have another stroke if i told him. I have been feeling at peace with God, i just don't know what to do with this.... I keep seeking God and His Face while my family is still in the world.... Sorry for rambling. I am just trying to do His Will and keep searching for it? Thank you for helping me, sir. It's my OWN fault for not keeping close with Jesus....
Yea I think its crazy that everytime some people have thoughts they believe the Lord told them, showed them or led them ect. Im not knocking that people don't hear from the Lord but discernment is key and not every thought is of the Lord. ❤❤❤ I'm careful with the "the Lord told me thing " even when I know something is of God I'm very careful about that..as we all should be .
Oh good point I’ll have to be a little more conscious of using phrases like that, sometimes I say something like that to deflect the revelation from me but I totally understand the headache of constantly hearing the Lord showed me the Lord told me it used to make me crazy. We all know his voice firstly because we have the gospel and we believe it. Then additionally it’s exactly what you are talking about bringing verses to remembrance. And it Seems like the Holy Spirit is on a whole other level of hiding himself to show Christ. Wind man.
Is it the lord or just our internal monologue that stems from a mix of beliefs, imagination and wishful thinking? I believe time and faith provide the answer, maybe not so much an instant explosion of thought
We grow in faith, but we are renewed instantly. The strength of our renewal is based on our ability to articulate what is ours in Christ? We preach the gospel to ourselves, come under the hearing of faith and receive the supply of the spirit. The more we know about who we are in Christ what we have in him and know how to stir ourselves up in Thanksgiving about the riches we have in Christ, the more we can drink deeply from the fountain of Life.

Oh boy this message is just what I needed to hear. Praying for a teachable spirit.

This was such a wonderful message. It was what I needed to hear this morning. Thank you, brother!

Very powerful, dear brother! Thank you.
I was taught that God wouldn't reveal something to you to tell someone unless He already told that person first. I think there is truth in that!
