Sad, but biblically, Marcus is living in adultery. I can tell he is passionate about God, but God's Word will never contradict itself (Him divorcing and remarrying contradicts God). We make vows before God saying for better, OR for WORSE (cheating, stealing, jail time, etc..). Ecclesiastes 5:4 When thou vowest a vow unto God, defer not to pay it; for he hath no pleasure in fools: pay that which thou hast vowed. So, now that he is on his 3rd wife, not only he, BUT if his first wife has also re-married, then BOTH are living in adultery: (Romans 7:3) So then if, while her husband liveth (is ALIVE), she be married to ANOTHER man, she SHALL be called an adulteress: but IF her husband be dead (deceased), she is FREE from that (marital) law; so that she is NO adulteress, though she be married to ANOTHER man
@@LC_H how are you living? Sin free? Unforgiven by God? You are so busy and anxious to judge Marcus..Peter, Paul, etc. all sinned yet they walked with Jesus. And continued the works of Jesus after the resurrection. Stop being so religious….You’ll be judged as well. In the book of Jeremiah it says God divorced Israel…are you going to judge him?
@@bernardinethomas7758 I wrote a comment and like always, when you discuss divorce and remarriage on here it gets erased somehow. Scripture is clear about the issue of marriage (Romans 7:2; 1 Corinthians 7:11; Mark 10:10; Luke 16:18, etc...). God never divorced Israel (if you continue reading throughout the Old testament); Just as Christ will never divorce His Bride (The church); JUST as a man is in covenant with his FIRST wife into death and should not leave her (marriage is the reflection of Christ and His Church). So to watch a brother live in sin (adultery), promote that sin as being justifiable (which contradicts scripture)... God is not pleased. To say, "How am I living?" Which basically is saying mind your business, and that is sad concerning (Ezekiel 3:18-20). Emotions... That's what Christians run on. Not God's Word, but emotions. As they say ... The road to hell is paved with good intentions❤️
Some of the best advice I got before getting married was, "Don't allow your source of Joy come from your husband. He doesn't deserve that burden and you don't deserve the let down". Christ is the source🙌🏼
that is trully a healthy mindset, been praying bout a relationship too and just want to share what the holy spirit gave me, the verse 'love your neighbor as you love yourself' it could also mean to love others not less or more than yourself, if you love others less you become selfish, if more you become dependent, Jesus has been preaching balance all this time! and Love God above all is the first cause he's the source. Merry Christmas, Everyone! God bless us all
So true. Just because two parties go to church and Saved doesn't mean the marriage will work. Sooo many preachers hv divorced and both parties were saved.
I know sooooo many former couples from the Pentecostal church who did the 'celibacy thing' (I do honor this) and the whole modesty/sanctified thing who are divorced...including pastors. Ultimately, you have to be compatible as 'people' as well as Christians.
It has been 10 years that I am single. I am 41 now. God gave me His wisdom and peace the moment I won my battle with mind and flesh. I humbled myself and accepted any way that God has for me: married or single for the rest of my life. Of course, sometimes I feel a bit sad and lonely and drop a tear :) that my young years are passing by and I am not getting younger . But, I need and I will be still and humble. All the answers are in the Word!!!
Thank you Kristina for this message. I’m about to turn 40 and have been single for over 10 years. I find myself depressed because I see other worldly people dating and getting married. But I know God told me to be single all these years. Reading your comment made me feel less alone.
Me too! And God has given me peace as well as I wait on Him for my godly spouse. 💕 I do have my very short moments of loneliness but overall He's kept me.
Yes. I agree totally. I'm 51yo, have been single 3 years now and have accepted whatever God has 4 me, married or single. I too have sadness that my youth has passed, but I am learning that God's grace us SUFFICIENT 4 me and you and others. I get lonely from time 2 time. Would Luv someone (a companion) 2 do things with bit realizing it's bedt 2 WAIT and let God handle it😘🥰💖
Sister, say it loud and proud! We both gotta wait! I was literally diving down the road the other day screaming at the top of my lungs "I'm going to wait on you Lord!" The reality is I know what happens when you run out of God's will. It costs! I have paid the price before and I'm not willing to disappoint my Father again by choosing wrong.
@@Anti-democratChick I am currently married. I was 40 getting married. Thank goodness I woke up. Met my husband in my late 30s. I stopped taking church advice so literally Just beware. Church advice can be harmful. I’m not saying disobey the word. Just please think outside the box and don’t just be a church mouse. I almost made that mistake.
Watching this as a single 21 year old and I’m really realising how blessed I am to be able to learn all this without personally making the mistakes. What a wonderful message, thank you Marcus, May God continue to bless you and your family 🙌🏾❤️
True statement but you're young remember what you're saying because life moves fast and you "HAVE TO STAY PRAYERFUL" but God can help you to stay on course.
Why r rumors saying he is on the down low Gay . Why are Ppl saying that Pastor MArcus Roger . I Heard He Just Married her for Cover Up Of the life he was n is living. 🙏🏼🙌🏼
@@godschosenoneniko8705 it is q rumor to discredit him. He has beautiful kids and a beautiful wife he has already set all that straight pray for the ones who speak lies against God's chosen
I needed to hear this 3 years ago! 😭 I did NOT ask God if I should marry my husband, I just assumed that since he came into my life at the time I had prayed for my husband that he was God's will for me and now we are going through a divorce. 😟
So sorry Kelly, I totally relate with you on this. I recently met a guy after asking God that very day to send me the one with all the things I listed, and behold I met him that very day, the next day he travelled for two weeks and we didn't see each other until about a month later. While he was away I told God hesitantly that if he wasn't the one to remove him from my life, well he did and it hurts upto now but he is God and does what's best for us even when we don't understand it. So keep praying and you will soon be grateful that it ended. Be still and know that he is God. Praying for you to get a breakthrough.
@@kathreentusiime1581 thank you. I'm praying for God to heal my heart & help me to let go. Like Marcus said, just because the other person is a Christian doesn't mean that he's the one for you. 😕
@@sarahvasquez3919 God have mercy on you and over turn all that is going wrong. Keep believing for he surely makes ways where there are none. He parted the sea for Moses, there is nothing he can't do. Believe that. Praying for you and your family
That’s because a lot of man want a Delilah (deceitful looking good women) than a Ruth or Queen Esther. But remember Delilah took away Samson gift because she didn’t walk with him or had the same belief as him. She walked by him which means she can walk away any time.
Sadly, some women want an Ahab too….& other women want a thug - which both are extremes and wrong. Men and women, when not looking thru the God lens, tend to lean on chemistry and energy, not the wisdom and will of God! And then pray that God would bless it. We all have to look deeper and learn from the mistakes of others!
Meagan said in an interview they met on the set of “Jumping the Broom” which was produced by Devon Franklin himself. I don’t think he expected her to change but I think he expected she would want to; if that makes sense. She wasn’t going to change because she thought he accepted who she was or at least that’s what it appeared to be to her possibly. They both are apart of Hollywood and involved in those circles. They were married 9 years and I believe they knew the end was near a long time ago. The Bible tells us to come out from among them and be separate. I think Pastor Devon had to excuse himself and overlook a lot to produce movies and work with some of these folks in Hollywood. I pray both of them find their way towards healing that they draw closer to God for understanding and guidance. 💯🙏🏾❤️
Great Word! Be with someone that does not interrupt the flow of who God wants you to be! I learned until you have wholeness do not get into a relationship. People tend to get into relationships while broken and vulnerable and along the way it results in one holding the other person to keep them happy and continuous validation. I do believe that hurt people, hurt people. Thus, before getting into a relationship or marriage ensure that you are whole, needing nothing but the fullness of God. This is where true joy and peace comes from. 🙏🏽❤️🙏🏽
Just to let you know you can marry a healthy person. And they can still make unhealthy choices. We live in a fallen world. Look up the definition of narcissist. In Gods word, says Men will become lovers of themselves.
Amen brother. My husband and I got divorce because we allowed religious people to come in between us.....we were divorced for over four years but by the grace of GOD we remarried got away from those religious folks and been blessed and happy ever sense.
@@Roomfullofstrangers Absolutely, but more specifically they also pick and choose what scriptures they follow but will condemn you as soon as you mess up or should I say fail to live up to their standards.
I believe the congregations commentary and other factors lead to their divorce. He’s a man of god, but he is still a man. She’s a beautiful woman and haters are going to hate. I hear a lot about her “settling” for him being a pastor, but I believe she honestly wanted this love. The marriage lasted 9 years. That’s not for nothing. She stopped attending his church to appease the haters. Y’all know most folks had that “should have been me thinking” or “why would he go outside of the flock to find a bride.” He tried to justify her style of dressing and making movies. She’s the same person he met, fell in love with, and married. Over time the comments wore on their marriage. I’m hoping they can come back together or move on amicably. I myself steer clear of church men. I’ve yet to meet one that wasn’t trying to live a dual life and fill me with guilt. If we are made in HIS image and HE knows our hearts why would we waste time beating ourselves up or listening to neigh sayers?!?
@@j9viewz746Your belief is wrong the church had nothing to do with his divoice, she wasnt a believer to begin with, he got played,he left his biblical teachings to defend his wife and was given a "reprobate mind" thus being married to her for 9 years, He believed in an unbeliever premonition, about god telling her he wouldn't be her husband, she used him for his connections in Hollywood to further her career, as she had no connections, to producter, only actors and rappers,She lied to him about her part in Harlem, she failed to tell him about her sex scene, thus he encouraged his followers to watch Harlem, they been separated since August last year she wasnt aware he had file until days before it was going to happen, todate she yet to file, there a lot more to thus too. She was never for a life of ministry nor did she respect him as a wife or as a men who had a ministry. He reap what he had sowed. The church had nothing to do with his blind eyes leas him to.thus path.
FOR MAN AND WOMAN THAT ARE SEEKING FOR A HEALTHY RELATIONSHIP, MAKE SURE HE OR SHE HAS GOD IN THE HEART AND ALSO SHARE THE SAME LOVE FOR GOD AND FEAR GOD. IN THE NAME OF JESUS CHRIST.
I was “Megan” years ago in a dating relationship. I thought Christian men were boring and didn’t want to change, although I had got saved through this relationship. This led me to break off the good relationship I had and chase after worldly men. I broke the Christian guys heart and was pretty reckless w how I handled things. How I’ve regretted how immature and worldly I was back then. Now I’m following Christ and won’t settle for anything less than Christ’s match for me. The guy who led me to Christ has walked away fr the Lord and has been on a binge w worldly women. It’s been crazy to see the ripple effects of not doing things the Lord’s way.
I hear that. It mostly happens when good men link themselves with women that are emotionally immature, superficial, and all about “self.” We become users think that a man is just there to supply without it being reciprocal. We can demand a lot from men who we have no intention on committing to. It becomes all about OUR needs. (Like Marcus said a lot of times it starts with wounds that us women have from childhood PLUS media painting an image of how we should be.) The women need to know who they are in God and taught what He values first, so that they can value the same. We may recognize a good man but it won’t “click” to us that that’s who we should be with until we have God’s heart and His eyes to value them.
I will be honest, it is really hard sometimes. I've been single my entire life waiting for the person that God has sent me. I'm 33 year old single woman. Everybody is finding their person, getting married, having kids, and growing families. it is tough sometimes because everybody has their life, and I just feel so alone sometimes. I wish that I could be okay with it but it is really hard at times. It is that feeling that you never really fit in in any place. The 20 some year olds they are in a different space in their minds, so I don't fit in there. The 30 some year olds are getting married and have growing families or getting married & growing their life. I feel like I am on a stan still & there is something wrong with me. I don't want to be in my 40s still waiting but I don't want to marry wrong either. Just being completely real and honest
Tana C don’t get discouraged, keep waiting for the right man and do not settle because you’re getting older. Save yourself some misery! I married at 37 which society considers “late”, had my son at 42!
I can relate. I have never been married and in my early 30s that was the dilemma because everybody seems to be getting married around that time and alot of people in their 20s seem too young minded and worldly for you to hang with them. However... i turn 40 next year and many of those that were married almost 10 years ago that i was basically envious of, are no longer married (either because of divorce or death) and the truth of what they had been dealing with came out. Things aren't always what they seem. I remind myself that if i really really wanted marriage i could have done it by now.. if thats all i wanted.. the comfort is that i didnt settle and i wanted more than just a change in status. Im still figuring it all out and i can honestly say with the way things and people have changed, i am fine being single for the rest of my life if that is Gods will.. you have to be so careful and honest that marriage is no fairytale, it is a learning experience and a way to see the things you need to work on and grow in the fruits of the Spirit. It is a high calling where many times you have to lay your emotions to the side , come out of self,and follow what the Word says. However the world teaches its basically all emotional and romantic and thats all many of us know. Age and experience has taught me its purpose is not even about that. Though all of this has been a painful process, im grateful for what im learning.
Girl I am happy you are so intune with the way you feel. It is you aknowledging you are human as well. If I may say, expand your social circle and also keep the the relation with your married friend(s) especially the wise ones who do not act as if by being married they have passes an exam you failed. Stay close with the ones that show in their action and words that marriage is another path in life and being single is not a sin. I believe that when you are single, you benefit from having real friendship with people from all walk in life. And most of all, Keep time alone to nourish your spirit.
This had me in tears. I’m going through a divorce now and have two children and have been feeling that way, that it’s over for me. It’s a struggle going to church and seeing other families intact. I still feel shame sometimes but God has helped me grow stronger. Thank you for sharing your testimony of God’s grace in your life. It was powerful. God bless.
There is no condemnation in Christ. Remember that. Always remember who you are in Christ. Use this experience to glorify God. One day you’ll use this experience to minister and give hope to another.
I’m divorcing w two kids too. So happy for this divorce and to get back to a healthy harmony. In Jesus’ name. I’m not seeing families “in tact”, ad you say, anywhere bc PANDEMIC. I will say it’s scary at times but my trust in Lord is all I have. I know that I know this abuse has to go and nothing else can come in front of that.
I had the pause the video real quick. This is confirmation for me, 100%. A guy has been pursuing me and personally, I don't like him romantically or anything but because he's one of the few guys I have felt safe around, I said I'll give him a chance (i.e. try to see if we were compatible etc). Let me tell you now, this guy has nothing to provide apart from material stuff. He lies, constantly, doesn't stick to his word and above all else, finds me intimidating, like I'm a threat to his manhood. I have never done or said anything to warrant that threat but yet pursues me. I believe it's because he wants me as a trophy. I've dropped him because if he's acting like this now, can you imagine how he would act in a proper relationship?? Thanks for this video brother Marcus
You did the right thing early. Let God show you and pray. I have always said I never want to play with a man or his feelings. I am in a situation that I want out of but we are now living with one another. Smh. At the time I met him I thought God sent him. But I should have known because he was in too much of a rush for sex and marriage. And because I am saved and he is not a practicing Christian after 2 years I dont believe he will change.
I never thought of her as a that "type" of person. Just based off the scenes I've seen her do over the years. I was shocked by that union from the beginning.
This made me cry. I suffered in a physically,emotionally,financially and sexually abusive marriage/relationship for 18 yrs. Left home at 16,17 from abuse. Dealt with molestation from 5 to 13 from a family member. Bullies in school from 4th grade until I dropped out in 11th grade. Five kids and no help from my exhusband or family. Worked my tail off to become a nurse and first yr as a nurse in 2015 Raped on the job. Hopeless, homeless and over it in 2016, my exhusband tried to kill me for leaving him. Divorced in 2018 and still praying for God to bless me with my Kingdom spouse and a better life. The judgment ive experienced from others almost broke me completely. However I know God has an anointing over my life 🙏. Im still here and Praising him in spite of. Its not easy trust me its been the most heartbreaking feeling of never really knowing what healthy love looks like. However my kids are my priority rn, raising them to know Christ, their worth and how to break generational curses is whats most important. Its not easy most days but God!
Wow... So sorry you went through so much.. You are definitely are a threat to the devil. Your life will deliver and set others free!! Keep fighting!! 💙💙💜💜
@@denesharichardson4538 Thank you for that. Its been extremely difficult however I Know God is a good God. There's days i fight to get out of bed. However I know he wants me to keep fighting. I will admit I'm pretty exhausted, I'd love some reinforcements asap lol. In his time,his will and for his glory is what I try to remind myself. Im just thankful that im able to share my story without judgment. God bless you 🙏.
I know that God has a real place in his heart for widows(single parents) and fatherless children. He will honor your righteous desires and will also bring people your way to bless your family
I've never been to your church, but if you preach this honestly on a Sunday morning, the Spirit will have complete freedom to bring healing to people. Thanks for letting us in to your life experiences. Great sermon!
I feel you dude. Just remember, some of those "judgmental religious people" have been hurt and abused ALSO. They need grace and mercy as well. All have sinned and broken the laws of God.
I was very hurt like that as a teen and young adult. I love how vulnerable you can be. I appreciate that a lot. The world needs more people like you Marcus. I have been through so much at a young age like you. Grew up way too fast. Now I am rebuilding my relationship with Jesus.
I’ve listened to you for a long time and I’d say this is one of your finest moments and videos. This will usher so many people into healing and a grace-accepting future. Thank you for allowing the Lord to use you in such an authentic way.
This video really helped me as a single man and single father. I know God is working in me an help cleaning me up my selfish ways and passive ways to man up be an even better father to my two boys and daughter. But also pursue him about getting married again. I got married at. 19 divorced by 21 and have learned a lot. God is faithful to bridge the gap over trouble waters, present help in time of need
We can’t have one foot in the world and the other in the Kingdom, nothing will work, eventually it will fall apart. Being unequally yoked is the problem here, the result of being led by the flesh, just can’t compromise God’s standards. If God’s not in it, I don’t want it.
please pray for healing of my mind🙏 I'm praying Jesus set me free of anything that's been tormenting mind after I lost my twins then my son 🙏 I want to become a true woman of God that serves and worships my Lord Jesus because I owe him my whole life 🙏💖💖
Wow. You have been through hell and back and still standing. You are strong and I applaud your strength. I pray that the peace and joy that only Christ and the Holyspirit can give flood your heart. ♥️
I pray the good LORD cover your mind and release you from your torment and give strength through this time in your life and also that you would receive his peace that surpasses all understanding that you may know that our GOD is still in control I ask in JESUS blessed name AMEN 🔥🌹🌹🌹🌹
Thank you for sharing. I believe that Devon Franklin said what he said about Megan's dress code, because of the manner in which the church lady asked Megan to "cover up". The lady was rude, she could have handled the matter differently. I understand Devn's reaction to that. No one knows the conversations they had privately. We cannot expect him to share his true feelings on a public stage like that. Some matters are best discussed privately.
Going through a divorce as we speak. Please make sure your spouse REALLY loves God. Some people are actually planted in your life by satan to hinder your progress. Satan preys on the lonely too. Be sober and vigilant......(1 Peter 5:8). Also thanks for making me cry Marcus. I chose this woman for the wrong reasons as well. This experience as well as this video has made me wiser though. I'm just going to wait on God from now on.
I went through my 2nd divorce 3/5/21, 3 months shy of 8 years of marriage. I felt lost and no hope. I felt like I was going to hell for sure. I know God used you to speak to me. I felt His love again. I’m tearing up. Thank you and God bless!
My pastor brother told me no man would want to marry me because I had a child out of wedlock. I feel sorry for his congregants. No grace at all. Thank God it’s not true.
This the realest testimony I've seen to date! Your Ministry is a ministry of transparency. Keep it coming Mighty Man of Valor. The world needs more of this! It's an encouragement to know those of us that have been through some terrible things to know we are not alone in this daily walk of living and doing our best to keep our eyes on THE MOST HIGH ABBA YAH. You Blessed me entire soul. You may have been Divorced twice; But you are still loved by ABBA. Thank you so much...Be Blessed. 😥🙏🏾✝️
Amen Marcus! I’ve been married and divorced 3 times and I understand why. Each time I married was for the wrong reasons! We all have sin and we all make mistakes. God is a forgiving God and I’m very thankful for that
Same here brother married and divorced 3 times thinking each time I was doing the right thing even prayed about the second marriage heard God say no and still did it🤦🏾♀️ and marriage only lasted a year and a half, thank God for His grace and mercy!
Thank you for your testimony. I related to it so much. I grew up in a domestic violence and ran away from home many times to just get away. I was molested by a family member and then was raped all by the age of 12. By the age of 17 I left home and found someone I thought that was “safe” like you said. Was married and had my first child at 19. Divorced. Got remarried. Had 2 more kids. Divorced again. And then I’m now remarried again. I’m 29 and God is still not done with me. I FELT THIS so much! Thank you for sharing. ALSO! I’m from Chicago and I currently live in the south suburbs of Chicago so I totally understood and related!
That’s right sister. God is not done with you. Don’t let go of his presence in your life. Stay focus, in his word and the blessings will be many. Sending prayers and love from Virginia 💜✝️🛐
Meagan said she saw him years ago and she told her friends, he's going to be my husband. I pray she doesn't regret not changing because the enemy will have us making decisions to ruin our destiny.
Brother Marcus, this video, in my opinion, is one of the best videos that you've done. I truly appreciate the transparency and Biblical teaching regarding marriage and relationships. I am 39 and can't wait to be married but I'm waiting for the man that God has for me. I've wasted so much time jumping into unGodly relationships due to feelings and loneliness and it messed me up. It caused so much delay and pain. So thank you for reminding us that God has much more for us, no matter what anyone says or thinks about us or our situation.
In a marriage we are also to carry our cross ,die to self, humble ourselves divorce is selfishness revealed. Either we submit to each other as the Bible commands or we let the Devil destroy what the Lord instituted
This message resonated with me so much it gave me chills.. I truly appreciate Marcus Rodgers transparency & biblical insight 💯 God's abundant grace is at work here 🙏
I am loving this conversation, speaking straight from the word of God and His wisdom. You are counseled by the spirit and power of God and its evident. Thanks for speaking with crazy faith. Many fear to say the truth and coming into terms with certain things but this is such a unique conversation. Bless you! 🇰🇪
Thank you Marcus for this testimony, “ amazing grace”. I will continue to tell my children and grandchildren about this “unmerited favor”. He’s been so good to me in spite of myself.🙏🏿👑
Man oh Marcus thank you for sharing your story. I maybe older but I can relate. I use to judge others who got divorced but after being married for 26 yrs. The word of God & marriage has humbled me. My husband had to endure things because of my issues most men would have left. It has been Gods grace. What you are saying has been powerful.
You have to remember Devon is a movie producer of Hollywood, so he has seen somethings, he has done somethings. I think they both were growing in Christ.
Thank you for this testimony. God is a gracious and forgiving God. This spoke personally to me. I’m young, single no kids and asking the Lord to prepare me for my future. I want to do things the right way. I am seeking first the kingdom of God by following and living out his word. Im in the process of seeking multiple council because I don’t want to go off of my own understanding. So in this single wilderness season, I’m living for Christ and in my study room with him. God bless💕
I agree and I am on that same page, ppl don’t understand, I am waiting on God I trust God not humans, I want God to bring him! Because I know it will last if it’s God, and him to bring the Man who believes in marriage forever and not this divorce mess!!
@@KM-oy5yh sis we ain’t playing with the devil, we gone glorify God! And please believe me I have patience waiting on Gods best! I will wait! I have understanding! And I know my worth plus more! My identity is in Christ not this world nor people! I came in this world by myself and I will leave it by myself! Amen to that!!!
That Jezebel spirit is strong in Hollywood.It’s similar to Kanye when he started to become convicted about his wife’s immodesty.Sometimes these women are so used to being immodest and rebellious.They equate being immodest as being an independent modern woman.Think about Gabriel Union she is very sinister.She runs her household and is leading them to destruction.Devon said he really wasn’t interested in dating a Hollywood actress.He tried.He went against his better judgment.
This was touching and humanized you for those who haven't heard your story. I too have been hurt by church folk and still avoid it because of that trauma, however, after having my daughter God has been speaking to me. I can officially say I walk by faith not by sight and as you said nobody can stop what GOD has for you! Keep inspiring people are listening and being healed.
I have been happily and unhappily married to the same man for 31 yrs. There was adulatory by my husband, but we worked through it and I had to build back my trust with help from God. Now we have a stronger marriage.
This is what Devon did. He said he knew she wasn't saved but yet he still married her. If you're a christian & planning on marrying an unbeliever, you've already set your marriage up for failure. They talked about saving themselves for each other until marriage, but they also admitted in an interview, that they used to share a bed overnight together, pre-marriage, even though they didn't have intercourse. This is still sin. Devon has referred to unsaved people as his mentors and to one unbeliever, as being his guiding light ! This man needs a lot of prayer.
Needed this 💜💜🙏🏽🙏🏽 Its not over for us! God is always with me even when I feel lost and not capable . Thank you! Your spirit is so encouraging and powerful 💕 God bless
Teach Marcus. I been there, seeing my mother in abusive relationships. I did not know how to have healthy relationships. I almost lost my life staying in a toxic marriage. God does not condemn us. He wants us to grow and get the lessons from our past mistakes. New mercies everyday to get it right.🙌🙏🏽
I'm happy you told you're story If I could go back when I was 18 I would of told myself to put God first and to wait till marriage I'm 22 years old I've been celibate for 2 years I used to cheat on guys because of how they will put me down as to them I wasn't physically attractive enough i was molested at the age of 5 now I learn to love myself i focus on God I live by myself I don't have that many friends but im learning to depend on God and letting God use me 👏🏾
I remember Devon even encouraged her into ungodly actions. She could do whatever she wanted to do, dress how she wanted to dress. Devon as the Head and Pastor was very wrong. He rejected rebuke. Not only her. Test the spirits.
Wow I love this ! I have made so many mistakes but God kept me and saved me … the enemy tries to make me feel I’m not worthy because of them but God kept me 💕Thank God for grace and mercy ! Amen! Excellent word Brother Marcus !
Hi Pastor Marcus my testimony when I met my husband we dated for a few months and we connected on a spiritual level first and he was the only man I had connected like that with . We prayed together n read the Bible together and God told my hubby that I would be his wife . But God told me he wanted us to take time apart n to grow more spiritually n he would bring us back together. So a few years later we came back together and we got married n have been together for 22 years it has been work not easy but we love each other have 4 kids n three grandkids. The Miller family.
This was a great discussion. Thanks for being transparent and sharing your story. How you shared the word on this topic is clear and from a genuine heart. Thank you for your labor of love!
Marcus this was so good! Have not watched you since the 2020 election. Thank you for sharing your testimony!. This was the best video I've seen you present! It was real and most of all from experience and how God's mercy was upon you.. Now that's a testimony. Please keep these types of videos coming. This video touched me deeply and I cried. The holy spirit was truly moving through your truth. The word says the truth shall set you free! Let us all be discerning and hear clearly from the Lord on our God ordained spouse. Been there done that and divorced twice. Will wait and pray on Gods choice for me.
Appreciate your transparency, brother Marcus! I’ve been skeptical of some of the things you’ve said over the years but this right here is solid. I’m truly sorry for being hard on you over the years. I can certainly relate to some of the things you said. Keep being transparent & keep sharing the word of God. Blessings & prayers to you and your family.
This entire 3 hour live stream Marcus JUDGED! Then he made it about him! Then he decided to exalt the Grace of God but never mentioned Jesus Christ or offer SALVATION TO THOSE WATCHING!! He quote scripture but don’t give the text where it is found in the Bible so people can read it and study it for themselves. Marcus admitted to all 9.2k people that were watching that he used those names(Devon & Meagan) to lure them in!! That is MANIPULATION!! Just listen to him carefully! So he LIED to everyone of them, then tapped into the viewers emotions with his life story, just to ask if they want to DONATE $ or visit HIS church house!!! People I pray that the veil be lifted off your eyes 👀!
I was just thinking yesterday how much I have changed from just 4 years ago. When I was with my son's father, I believe that spirit if jezebel was on me. I was using drugs at an early age. I was the last to lose my virginity of my friends and one of the first pregnant at 17. My son's father I assumed was doing me dirty so I decided to do the same. I had been hurt so bad up til that point and cheated a lot. Needless to say we are not together. But I lived like that for a long time. Went to relationship to relationship. Now I couldn't imagine being that person today at almost 35. Thank you Jesus! Your videos are always right on time.
Brother Marcus, you realized you were preaching the entire time... You are 100% correct about many of these church folks out there acting as if they are holier than thou. I really appreciate your transparency and I know in my spirits your testimony and your encouragement have helped so many young and even more mature folks. I do believe you were called for Yah's ministry.
I will say this, a lot of things were discussed before marriage and it definitely was not about how Meagan looked for De’von. There connection was mutual and he took his time with his decision as to how far they were going to go. (Btw, she is my godsister so I know all of this). They had several conversations yet throughout the years, things changed and communication was key where they tried to work through it. Yes, Meagan has had previous issues in relationship yet when her and Devon met, she was in a different space and place spiritually. Wrong guidance and counselor from other Christian leaders made her feel the way she has been in her career was ok. As we know, the enemy comes in and when we are not rooted and grounded in His word and do not know how to spiritually fight off wrong guidance due to being a novice in the Lord, she was guided down the wrong path and it had an affect on the strength of her marriage. More to the story yet let us just pray God’s divine will to occur in this situation. At the end of the day, people have a choice to be totally submitted to God or not. Thank you for your insight and share.
Well said!! It amazes me how people don't apply caution in opening their mouths & speaking against this relationship (or anyone else's for that matter). They're cursing themselves if they do. Megan is a babe in Christ & church houses are full of wolves these days. You'd be surprised how many blind witches (those unknowingly under a stronghold of manipulation & witchcraft) and practicing witches sit in key positions of influence as gatekeepers for Satan within churches. I believe from the beginning, the enemy took aim at both these two specifically to split them up b/c they represent purity & God's standard in the face of Hollywood perversion. I'm praying that her eyes be opened & that he not be dissuaded through discouragement by the enemy. TRULY.. DEEP INTERCESSION IS NEEDED FOR BOTH DEVON & MEGAN.
Sorry to hear of their divorce. They need to come on out of Hollywood and work on following JESUS. HE has to be a focal point. Will say a prayer for them.
Bless u for your encouragement. I've made a lot mistakes didn't know better, hurt, rejected, used by bad people including Christians, all my life living in pain. Today I'm almost 40 years old single women, I feel my life is over in so many ways. I don't even know myself sometimes. The only thing keeping me to live is His peace inside me, I thank God for that. But today I believe God is bigger than my problems. HE IS MY VICTORY!!! Not me.
God Bless You, Seek God for your Purpose, and Understanding - focus on fulfilling Purpose and your Destiny. That's the only way to get your life back!!!
I'm 36 and single. I'm a year celibate. I'm living for God now. I am waiting on him. There is nothing better than self love and inner peace. To God be all the glory. I don't have kids I have never been married and it doesn't bother me anymore. I'm tired of living in sin, tired of broken relationships. You are not alone. I prefer to stay single and have inner peace. I leave everything in God's hand now
This former woman at the well just lost it! 😭🙌😭 I was praying & asking about this exact subject 2 HOURS b4 this broadcast! 😭🙌😭 WRECKED! Sooooogoooood! God is SO good! Thankyouuuuu for sharing this today! 9 years of healing since my last divorce & WOW! He STILL piecing me back together piece by piece! He WILL use my pain for His purpose! Rom 8:28 🔥

Thank you for this. Going through divorce with 5 children and I am so lonely. This gives me so much hope. Thank you for allowing yourself to be a vessel and used for His glory
Pastor Marcus thank you so much for your testimony 🤍🙏🏾 Your fearless love for Christ is an inspiration and I pray that GOD continues to use you in MIGHTY ways for His remnant for such a time as this🙌🏾
Amen 🙏🏾 powerful message I have been single 7 1/1 years now, but waiting for who God has for me. I am not accepting anything less and neither should anyone else.
I believe the only thing we should be doing and speaking on as believers and followers of Christ is the restoration of their marriage and praying for them to be reconciled together. We should be praying for their marriage, not talking about it, that is gossip. We dont know what happened between them, every couple struggles in a relationship but God can/will work it out if you let Him. Marcus as a pastor please pray for them and encourage others to do the same, thats the biblical thin to do. Be blessed all!
Best comment. I deleted a comment earlier I had to ask myself if they were to read this comment would it build them up or tear them down. We have to be careful about putting our mouth on people and we don’t know either of them.
BEST teaching on Marriage I’ve EVER heard! It’s full of wisdom, truth, compassion & love. This should be a requirement for ALL married couples; as well as those who are considering marriage. God bless you Brother Marcus, your family & ministry. Praise God! 🙌🏾
The Lord knows that I needed to hear this today. Thank you for sharing your testimony. I seen my friend struggle being married to an evil person and she’s suffered and continues to suffer because of him. But religious people have told her to “love hun through it”.
Amen, Brother! Thank you for your honest testimony. I have two children by different fathers and the Lord has set me free from so much including my guilt over having them out of wedlock. I trust that a kingdom marriage is in my future and I believe the word of God (Jeremiah 29:11 comes to mind!). As you often say, real ones know!!!! We know the hurt and the battle you’ve fought, we have fought too and now we fight with you and for Him!!!!! 💕🔥✝️🙏🏻💗
Marcus, thank you. Because you are teaching many of us. Thank God you are here to use your experience as a testimony. You are changing a lot of young lives.
Marcus this is you at your best, just being real, honest and transparent speaks everything Jesus is!!! This is ministry!!
And doing it very humbly but real 👏
Sad, but biblically, Marcus is living in adultery. I can tell he is passionate about God, but God's Word will never contradict itself (Him divorcing and remarrying contradicts God).
We make vows before God saying for better, OR for WORSE (cheating, stealing, jail time, etc..).
Ecclesiastes 5:4 When thou vowest a vow unto God, defer not to pay it; for he hath no pleasure in fools: pay that which thou hast vowed.
So, now that he is on his 3rd wife, not only he, BUT if his first wife has also re-married, then BOTH are living in adultery:
(Romans 7:3) So then if, while her husband liveth (is ALIVE), she be married to ANOTHER man, she SHALL be called an adulteress: but IF her husband be dead (deceased), she is FREE from that (marital) law; so that she is NO adulteress, though she be married to ANOTHER man
@@LC_H how are you living? Sin free? Unforgiven by God? You are so busy and anxious to judge Marcus..Peter, Paul, etc. all sinned yet they walked with Jesus. And continued the works of Jesus after the resurrection. Stop being so religious….You’ll be judged as well. In the book of Jeremiah it says God divorced Israel…are you going to judge him?
Agree!
@@bernardinethomas7758 I wrote a comment and like always, when you discuss divorce and remarriage on here it gets erased somehow. Scripture is clear about the issue of marriage (Romans 7:2; 1 Corinthians 7:11; Mark 10:10; Luke 16:18, etc...). God never divorced Israel (if you continue reading throughout the Old testament); Just as Christ will never divorce His Bride (The church); JUST as a man is in covenant with his FIRST wife into death and should not leave her (marriage is the reflection of Christ and His Church). So to watch a brother live in sin (adultery), promote that sin as being justifiable (which contradicts scripture)... God is not pleased. To say, "How am I living?" Which basically is saying mind your business, and that is sad concerning (Ezekiel 3:18-20). Emotions... That's what Christians run on. Not God's Word, but emotions. As they say ... The road to hell is paved with good intentions❤️
Some of the best advice I got before getting married was, "Don't allow your source of Joy come from your husband. He doesn't deserve that burden and you don't deserve the let down". Christ is the source🙌🏼
Amen, i had to learn that along the way.
Amen mu sister
Amen sis
Yesssssss…Christ WILL only be ENOUGH
that is trully a healthy mindset, been praying bout a relationship too and just want to share what the holy spirit gave me, the verse 'love your neighbor as you love yourself' it could also mean to love others not less or more than yourself, if you love others less you become selfish, if more you become dependent, Jesus has been preaching balance all this time! and Love God above all is the first cause he's the source. Merry Christmas, Everyone! God bless us all
"If you get married don't assume it's going to work b/c you both go to church".-Marcus Rogers
Reaaaaal talk🙌🏾 Brother Marcus
So true. Just because two parties go to church and Saved doesn't mean the marriage will work. Sooo many preachers hv divorced and both parties were saved.
VERY TRUE
I know sooooo many former couples from the Pentecostal church who did the 'celibacy thing' (I do honor this) and the whole modesty/sanctified thing who are divorced...including pastors. Ultimately, you have to be compatible as 'people' as well as Christians.
@@blacknnatural Yes. Compatibility is so important.
So as Christians stop giving the wrong advice
It has been 10 years that I am single. I am 41 now. God gave me His wisdom and peace the moment I won my battle with mind and flesh. I humbled myself and accepted any way that God has for me: married or single for the rest of my life. Of course, sometimes I feel a bit sad and lonely and drop a tear :) that my young years are passing by and I am not getting younger . But, I need and I will be still and humble. All the answers are in the Word!!!
Thank you Kristina for this message. I’m about to turn 40 and have been single for over 10 years. I find myself depressed because I see other worldly people dating and getting married. But I know God told me to be single all these years. Reading your comment made me feel less alone.
I relate..so much. Be still. Be humble
Me too! And God has given me peace as well as I wait on Him for my godly spouse. 💕 I do have my very short moments of loneliness but overall He's kept me.
@@oogieboogie4702 I'm not his biggest fan but that's a lie, I personally like his authenticity, don't have to agree with everything he says
Yes. I agree totally. I'm 51yo, have been single 3 years now and have accepted whatever God has 4 me, married or single. I too have sadness that my youth has passed, but I am learning that God's grace us SUFFICIENT 4 me and you and others. I get lonely from time 2 time. Would Luv someone (a companion) 2 do things with bit realizing it's bedt 2 WAIT and let God handle it😘🥰💖

"Marry long instead of marry wrong" 💯🙋🏾♀️I'm gonna wait. Help me holy ghost to wait!! 🙌🏽 Powerful testimony! Thank you for your transparency!! ❤️
Waiting doesn’t mean you will get married. You have to take action. Faith without works is dead. Freeze your eggs.
Sister, say it loud and proud! We both gotta wait! I was literally diving down the road the other day screaming at the top of my lungs "I'm going to wait on you Lord!" The reality is I know what happens when you run out of God's will. It costs! I have paid the price before and I'm not willing to disappoint my Father again by choosing wrong.
@@Anti-democratChick Amen! I believe it will be worth the wait this time! Happy New Year to you! 💕
@@adayinthelight7575 it's called "actively waiting" ... Without faith it's impossible to please God! Take care!
@@Anti-democratChick I am currently married. I was 40 getting married. Thank goodness I woke up. Met my husband in my late 30s. I stopped taking church advice so literally Just beware. Church advice can be harmful. I’m not saying disobey the word. Just please think outside the box and don’t just be a church mouse. I almost made that mistake.
Watching this as a single 21 year old and I’m really realising how blessed I am to be able to learn all this without personally making the mistakes. What a wonderful message, thank you Marcus, May God continue to bless you and your family 🙌🏾❤️
Realizing not realising it's z ..I correct in love ...no S it's Z
Oh, the battle ain’t over… you could learn the lesson theoretically but it’s different when you’re actually living it
True statement but you're young remember what you're saying because life moves fast and you "HAVE TO STAY PRAYERFUL" but God can help you to stay on course.
Why r rumors saying he is on the down low Gay . Why are Ppl saying that Pastor MArcus Roger . I Heard He Just Married her for Cover Up Of the life he was n is living. 🙏🏼🙌🏼
@@godschosenoneniko8705 it is q rumor to discredit him. He has beautiful kids and a beautiful wife he has already set all that straight pray for the ones who speak lies against God's chosen
I needed to hear this 3 years ago! 😭 I did NOT ask God if I should marry my husband, I just assumed that since he came into my life at the time I had prayed for my husband that he was God's will for me and now we are going through a divorce. 😟
So sorry to hear this. May GOD give you strength and lead you both.
So sorry Kelly, I totally relate with you on this. I recently met a guy after asking God that very day to send me the one with all the things I listed, and behold I met him that very day, the next day he travelled for two weeks and we didn't see each other until about a month later. While he was away I told God hesitantly that if he wasn't the one to remove him from my life, well he did and it hurts upto now but he is God and does what's best for us even when we don't understand it. So keep praying and you will soon be grateful that it ended. Be still and know that he is God. Praying for you to get a breakthrough.
@@horschiday9449 thank you.
@@kathreentusiime1581 thank you. I'm praying for God to heal my heart & help me to let go. Like Marcus said, just because the other person is a Christian doesn't mean that he's the one for you. 😕

That’s because a lot of man want a Delilah (deceitful looking good women) than a Ruth or Queen Esther. But remember Delilah took away Samson gift because she didn’t walk with him or had the same belief as him. She walked by him which means she can walk away any time.
Amen

This! Preach girl
Sadly, some women want an Ahab too….& other women want a thug - which both are extremes and wrong. Men and women, when not looking thru the God lens, tend to lean on chemistry and energy, not the wisdom and will of God! And then pray that God would bless it.
We all have to look deeper and learn from the mistakes of others!
@@fpres1079 AMEN AMEN AMEN, MY #BROTHER IN #CHRIST!!!😇💯💢💕
Meagan said in an interview they met on the set of “Jumping the Broom” which was produced by Devon Franklin himself. I don’t think he expected her to change but I think he expected she would want to; if that makes sense. She wasn’t going to change because she thought he accepted who she was or at least that’s what it appeared to be to her possibly. They both are apart of Hollywood and involved in those circles. They were married 9 years and I believe they knew the end was near a long time ago. The Bible tells us to come out from among them and be separate. I think Pastor Devon had to excuse himself and overlook a lot to produce movies and work with some of these folks in Hollywood. I pray both of them find their way towards healing that they draw closer to God for understanding and guidance. 💯🙏🏾❤️
I Agree
Great Word! Be with someone that does not interrupt the flow of who God wants you to be! I learned until you have wholeness do not get into a relationship. People tend to get into relationships while broken and vulnerable and along the way it results in one holding the other person to keep them happy and continuous validation. I do believe that hurt people, hurt people. Thus, before getting into a relationship or marriage ensure that you are whole, needing nothing but the fullness of God. This is where true joy and peace comes from. 🙏🏽❤️🙏🏽
Amen
Amen! People work on their finances, their careers, bodies, and other people but they forget to work on themselves. Both mentally and spiritually!
It is found in market verse 9: thru 12 that you
Just to let you know you can marry a healthy person. And they can still make unhealthy choices. We live in a fallen world. Look up the definition of narcissist.
In Gods word, says
Men will become lovers of themselves.
Amen brother. My husband and I got divorce because we allowed religious people to come in between us.....we were divorced for over four years but by the grace of GOD we remarried got away from those religious folks and been blessed and happy ever sense.
Religious folks as in those who go to church and want to point fingers but have no real relationship with God (?) Is that what you meant?
@@Roomfullofstrangers Absolutely, but more specifically they also pick and choose what scriptures they follow but will condemn you as soon as you mess up or should I say fail to live up to their standards.
Understand Goat and Sheep in church. Pray when you receive any advice
I believe the congregations commentary and other factors lead to their divorce. He’s a man of god, but he is still a man. She’s a beautiful woman and haters are going to hate. I hear a lot about her “settling” for him being a pastor, but I believe she honestly wanted this love. The marriage lasted 9 years. That’s not for nothing. She stopped attending his church to appease the haters. Y’all know most folks had that “should have been me thinking” or “why would he go outside of the flock to find a bride.” He tried to justify her style of dressing and making movies. She’s the same person he met, fell in love with, and married. Over time the comments wore on their marriage. I’m hoping they can come back together or move on amicably. I myself steer clear of church men. I’ve yet to meet one that wasn’t trying to live a dual life and fill me with guilt. If we are made in HIS image and HE knows our hearts why would we waste time beating ourselves up or listening to neigh sayers?!?
@@j9viewz746Your belief is wrong the church had nothing to do with his divoice, she wasnt a believer to begin with, he got played,he left his biblical teachings to defend his wife and was given a "reprobate mind" thus being married to her for 9 years, He believed in an unbeliever premonition, about god telling her he wouldn't be her husband, she used him for his connections in Hollywood to further her career, as she had no connections, to producter, only actors and rappers,She lied to him about her part in Harlem, she failed to tell him about her sex scene, thus he encouraged his followers to watch Harlem, they been separated since August last year she wasnt aware he had file until days before it was going to happen, todate she yet to file, there a lot more to thus too. She was never for a life of ministry nor did she respect him as a wife or as a men who had a ministry. He reap what he had sowed. The church had nothing to do with his blind eyes leas him to.thus path.
FOR MAN AND WOMAN THAT ARE SEEKING FOR A HEALTHY RELATIONSHIP, MAKE SURE HE OR SHE HAS GOD IN THE HEART AND ALSO SHARE THE SAME LOVE FOR GOD AND FEAR GOD.
IN THE NAME OF JESUS CHRIST.

I was “Megan” years ago in a dating relationship. I thought Christian men were boring and didn’t want to change, although I had got saved through this relationship. This led me to break off the good relationship I had and chase after worldly men. I broke the Christian guys heart and was pretty reckless w how I handled things. How I’ve regretted how immature and worldly I was back then. Now I’m following Christ and won’t settle for anything less than Christ’s match for me. The guy who led me to Christ has walked away fr the Lord and has been on a binge w worldly women. It’s been crazy to see the ripple effects of not doing things the Lord’s way.
That's real cause men try to do the right thing but then they get hurt in the process so what's the point.
I hear that. It mostly happens when good men link themselves with women that are emotionally immature, superficial, and all about “self.” We become users think that a man is just there to supply without it being reciprocal. We can demand a lot from men who we have no intention on committing to. It becomes all about OUR needs. (Like Marcus said a lot of times it starts with wounds that us women have from childhood PLUS media painting an image of how we should be.) The women need to know who they are in God and taught what He values first, so that they can value the same. We may recognize a good man but it won’t “click” to us that that’s who we should be with until we have God’s heart and His eyes to value them.
@@mrenae6798 So true, wonderful testimony woman of God🙏 God bless you for sharing❤
Thank you! Blessings to you now and in the year to come. 🙂
That’s real talk thanks for sharing sis 💚
I will be honest, it is really hard sometimes. I've been single my entire life waiting for the person that God has sent me. I'm 33 year old single woman. Everybody is finding their person, getting married, having kids, and growing families. it is tough sometimes because everybody has their life, and I just feel so alone sometimes. I wish that I could be okay with it but it is really hard at times. It is that feeling that you never really fit in in any place. The 20 some year olds they are in a different space in their minds, so I don't fit in there. The 30 some year olds are getting married and have growing families or getting married & growing their life. I feel like I am on a stan still & there is something wrong with me. I don't want to be in my 40s still waiting but I don't want to marry wrong either. Just being completely real and honest
Same same.
Tana C don’t get discouraged, keep waiting for the right man and do not settle because you’re getting older. Save yourself some misery! I married at 37 which society considers “late”, had my son at 42!
I can relate. I have never been married and in my early 30s that was the dilemma because everybody seems to be getting married around that time and alot of people in their 20s seem too young minded and worldly for you to hang with them. However... i turn 40 next year and many of those that were married almost 10 years ago that i was basically envious of, are no longer married (either because of divorce or death) and the truth of what they had been dealing with came out. Things aren't always what they seem. I remind myself that if i really really wanted marriage i could have done it by now.. if thats all i wanted.. the comfort is that i didnt settle and i wanted more than just a change in status. Im still figuring it all out and i can honestly say with the way things and people have changed, i am fine being single for the rest of my life if that is Gods will.. you have to be so careful and honest that marriage is no fairytale, it is a learning experience and a way to see the things you need to work on and grow in the fruits of the Spirit. It is a high calling where many times you have to lay your emotions to the side , come out of self,and follow what the Word says. However the world teaches its basically all emotional and romantic and thats all many of us know. Age and experience has taught me its purpose is not even about that. Though all of this has been a painful process, im grateful for what im learning.
Girl I am happy you are so intune with the way you feel. It is you aknowledging you are human as well.
If I may say, expand your social circle and also keep the the relation with your married friend(s) especially the wise ones who do not act as if by being married they have passes an exam you failed. Stay close with the ones that show in their action and words that marriage is another path in life and being single is not a sin. I believe that when you are single, you benefit from having real friendship with people from all walk in life. And most of all, Keep time alone to nourish your spirit.
Stay blessed Tana!!!
This had me in tears. I’m going through a divorce now and have two children and have been feeling that way, that it’s over for me. It’s a struggle going to church and seeing other families intact. I still feel shame sometimes but God has helped me grow stronger. Thank you for sharing your testimony of God’s grace in your life. It was powerful. God bless.
You can't do that to yourself you can't judge families from the outside, outside can look pretty and the inside in home life can look ugly
There is no condemnation in Christ. Remember that. Always remember who you are in Christ. Use this experience to glorify God. One day you’ll use this experience to minister and give hope to another.
I’m divorcing w two kids too. So happy for this divorce and to get back to a healthy harmony. In Jesus’ name. I’m not seeing families “in tact”, ad you say, anywhere bc PANDEMIC. I will say it’s scary at times but my trust in Lord is all I have. I know that I know this abuse has to go and nothing else can come in front of that.
@@dilciaenid57 Maybe separate not divorce. Seek God for wisdom before making any permanent decisions
Nice to hear Marcus back on track. It was difficult to follow during the election and the Trump obsession. I will resubscribe.
I had the pause the video real quick. This is confirmation for me, 100%. A guy has been pursuing me and personally, I don't like him romantically or anything but because he's one of the few guys I have felt safe around, I said I'll give him a chance (i.e. try to see if we were compatible etc). Let me tell you now, this guy has nothing to provide apart from material stuff. He lies, constantly, doesn't stick to his word and above all else, finds me intimidating, like I'm a threat to his manhood. I have never done or said anything to warrant that threat but yet pursues me. I believe it's because he wants me as a trophy. I've dropped him because if he's acting like this now, can you imagine how he would act in a proper relationship?? Thanks for this video brother Marcus
Girl run for your life!!
@@Actavella I hear that
You did the right thing early. Let God show you and pray. I have always said I never want to play with a man or his feelings. I am in a situation that I want out of but we are now living with one another. Smh. At the time I met him I thought God sent him. But I should have known because he was in too much of a rush for sex and marriage. And because I am saved and he is not a practicing Christian after 2 years I dont believe he will change.
He was incorrect in saying she can dress how ever she wants. If you are in Christ body the way you carry your self is different than not being saved
AMEN, SISTER!!!😇🙏
I never thought of her as a that "type" of person. Just based off the scenes I've seen her do over the years. I was shocked by that union from the beginning.
Clothing isn't the problem....
Covering a cloth nothing way showing
For the occassions she was okay...
We as christians must realize we sin as well
This made me cry. I suffered in a physically,emotionally,financially and sexually abusive marriage/relationship for 18 yrs. Left home at 16,17 from abuse. Dealt with molestation from 5 to 13 from a family member. Bullies in school from 4th grade until I dropped out in 11th grade. Five kids and no help from my exhusband or family. Worked my tail off to become a nurse and first yr as a nurse in 2015 Raped on the job. Hopeless, homeless and over it in 2016, my exhusband tried to kill me for leaving him. Divorced in 2018 and still praying for God to bless me with my Kingdom spouse and a better life. The judgment ive experienced from others almost broke me completely. However I know God has an anointing over my life 🙏. Im still here and Praising him in spite of. Its not easy trust me its been the most heartbreaking feeling of never really knowing what healthy love looks like. However my kids are my priority rn, raising them to know Christ, their worth and how to break generational curses is whats most important. Its not easy most days but God!

This was a wonderful clip the best I've heard in a while. As a young single Christian, I value this advice thank you.
I've never been to your church, but if you preach this honestly on a Sunday morning, the Spirit will have complete freedom to bring healing to people. Thanks for letting us in to your life experiences. Great sermon!
I feel you dude. Just remember, some of those "judgmental religious people" have been hurt and abused ALSO. They need grace and mercy as well. All have sinned and broken the laws of God.
I was very hurt like that as a teen and young adult. I love how vulnerable you can be. I appreciate that a lot. The world needs more people like you Marcus. I have been through so much at a young age like you. Grew up way too fast. Now I am rebuilding my relationship with Jesus.
Never been married. This is the most heartful message/advice on relationship and marriage. It's not over. Amen!
I’ve listened to you for a long time and I’d say this is one of your finest moments and videos. This will usher so many people into healing and a grace-accepting future. Thank you for allowing the Lord to use you in such an authentic way.
Amen
This video really helped me as a single man and single father. I know God is working in me an help cleaning me up my selfish ways and passive ways to man up be an even better father to my two boys and daughter. But also pursue him about getting married again. I got married at. 19 divorced by 21 and have learned a lot. God is faithful to bridge the gap over trouble waters, present help in time of need
Amen
Amen! I totally agree.
Yes We are in tough times world wide but our God heavenly Father is Faithful to bring us through. I surrender my life to the Holyspirit
Amen he is 🙏🏾🙏🏾
@@iamlatasha yes
We can’t have one foot in the world and the other in the Kingdom, nothing will work, eventually it will fall apart. Being unequally yoked is the problem here, the result of being led by the flesh, just can’t compromise God’s standards. If God’s not in it, I don’t want it.
please pray for healing of my mind🙏 I'm praying Jesus set me free of anything that's been tormenting mind after I lost my twins then my son 🙏 I want to become a true woman of God that serves and worships my Lord Jesus because I owe him my whole life 🙏💖💖
Wow. You have been through hell and back and still standing. You are strong and I applaud your strength. I pray that the peace and joy that only Christ and the Holyspirit can give flood your heart. ♥️
I pray the good LORD cover your mind and release you from your torment and give strength through this time in your life and also that you would receive his peace that surpasses all understanding that you may know that our GOD is still in control I ask in JESUS blessed name AMEN 🔥🌹🌹🌹🌹
God is able just know that not every thought that comes to ur mind is urs continue to pray u will be ok in Jesus name
🙏🙏🙏🙏♥️
Thank you for sharing. I believe that Devon Franklin said what he said about Megan's dress code, because of the manner in which the church lady asked Megan to "cover up". The lady was rude, she could have handled the matter differently. I understand Devn's reaction to that. No one knows the conversations they had privately. We cannot expect him to share his true feelings on a public stage like that. Some matters are best discussed privately.
Agree
True I agree
"There's no place too deep that His light can't shine." AMEN!! Amen to that!
The enemy is really working hard to destroy marriages.
Going through a divorce as we speak. Please make sure your spouse REALLY loves God. Some people are actually planted in your life by satan to hinder your progress. Satan preys on the lonely too. Be sober and vigilant......(1 Peter 5:8).
Also thanks for making me cry Marcus. I chose this woman for the wrong reasons as well. This experience as well as this video has made me wiser though. I'm just going to wait on God from now on.
Everything happens for a reason I’m sure God will turn it around for good
Yep...narcissism is a real thing.
What happened
I went through my 2nd divorce 3/5/21, 3 months shy of 8 years of marriage. I felt lost and no hope. I felt like I was going to hell for sure. I know God used you to speak to me. I felt His love again. I’m tearing up. Thank you and God bless!
🙏❤🙏❤🙏
God bless you. Marriage is hard.
❤️❤️❤️❤️🤗
Dios es bueno siempre llega a tiempo🙏
My pastor brother told me no man would want to marry me because I had a child out of wedlock. I feel sorry for his congregants. No grace at all. Thank God it’s not true.
This the realest testimony I've seen to date! Your Ministry is a ministry of transparency. Keep it coming Mighty Man of Valor.
The world needs more of this! It's an encouragement to know those of us that have been through some terrible things to know we are not alone in this daily walk of living and doing our best to keep our eyes on THE MOST HIGH ABBA YAH. You Blessed me entire soul. You may have been Divorced twice; But you are still loved by ABBA.
Thank you so much...Be Blessed.
😥🙏🏾✝️
Amen Marcus! I’ve been married and divorced 3 times and I understand why. Each time I married was for the wrong reasons! We all have sin and we all make mistakes. God is a forgiving God and I’m very thankful for that
Same here brother married and divorced 3 times thinking each time I was doing the right thing even prayed about the second marriage heard God say no and still did it🤦🏾♀️ and marriage only lasted a year and a half, thank God for His grace and mercy!
Thank you for your testimony. I related to it so much. I grew up in a domestic violence and ran away from home many times to just get away. I was molested by a family member and then was raped all by the age of 12. By the age of 17 I left home and found someone I thought that was “safe” like you said. Was married and had my first child at 19. Divorced. Got remarried. Had 2 more kids. Divorced again. And then I’m now remarried again. I’m 29 and God is still not done with me. I FELT THIS so much! Thank you for sharing.
ALSO! I’m from Chicago and I currently live in the south suburbs of Chicago so I totally understood and related!
Gives me hope thank you for this 🙏❤.
WoW! You are a strong woman and I pray God continue to protect you!
That’s right sister. God is not done with you. Don’t let go of his presence in your life. Stay focus, in his word and the blessings will be many. Sending prayers and love from Virginia 💜✝️🛐
So glad you are here ❤
God loves you,
This hit home: “I’m learning through trial and errors” 🙏🏾
🙏🏾💕🕊️
Meagan said she saw him years ago and she told her friends, he's going to be my husband. I pray she doesn't regret not changing because the enemy will have us making decisions to ruin our destiny.
Brother Marcus, this video, in my opinion, is one of the best videos that you've done. I truly appreciate the transparency and Biblical teaching regarding marriage and relationships. I am 39 and can't wait to be married but I'm waiting for the man that God has for me. I've wasted so much time jumping into unGodly relationships due to feelings and loneliness and it messed me up. It caused so much delay and pain. So thank you for reminding us that God has much more for us, no matter what anyone says or thinks about us or our situation.
In a marriage we are also to carry our cross ,die to self, humble ourselves divorce is selfishness revealed. Either we submit to each other as the Bible commands or we let the Devil destroy what the Lord instituted
Say That! Much truth indeed 🙌🙌👏👏👏🙏💯
Exactly, the bible needs to be read again on divorce and remarriage.
Wow😳 God can still perform a miracle. He can still get the glory. I pray for deliverance and victory for Devon and Meagan.
This message resonated with me so much it gave me chills.. I truly appreciate Marcus Rodgers transparency & biblical insight 💯 God's abundant grace is at work here 🙏
I am loving this conversation, speaking straight from the word of God and His wisdom. You are counseled by the spirit and power of God and its evident. Thanks for speaking with crazy faith. Many fear to say the truth and coming into terms with certain things but this is such a unique conversation. Bless you! 🇰🇪
😍😍🇹🇿
Thank you Marcus for this testimony, “ amazing grace”. I will continue to tell my children and grandchildren about this “unmerited favor”. He’s been so good to me in spite of myself.🙏🏿👑
I'm tearing up. I thank God for your grace Lord. I fornicated, committed adultery and God saved me , forgave me, and delivered me.
Me too girl! God is good, He shows us How He sees us in love and mercy. God is so good to cover us and be with us.
Man oh Marcus thank you for sharing your story. I maybe older but I can relate. I use to judge others who got divorced but after being married for 26 yrs. The word of God & marriage has humbled me. My husband had to endure things because of my issues most men would have left. It has been Gods grace. What you are saying has been powerful.
Leaders are so important for the us! Like you! You are annointed!
Thank you for your honesty! I love how down to earth you are and how you show compassion and humility! I love ❤️ you with the love of Christ!
Devon and Meagan are such a beautiful couple. Let's just pray for them and hope that they do not get a divorce.
My heart goes out to them. They look perfectly perfect. May the Lord help them in the name of Jesus Christ
@@abrahamruth656 Amen!
They are already on there way to dissolution. Who knows if the marriage was God ordained. Only God knows that. Not humans.
🙏 amen
too late for that!!!
You have to remember Devon is a movie producer of Hollywood, so he has seen somethings, he has done somethings. I think they both were growing in Christ.
Key to longevity in marriage: forgiveness every moment. Start there. Cuz there is more but it starts there
So true
So true
This ministered to me. Thank you for letting Yah use you. Blessings.
This really blessed me. Thank you for letting God use you and continue to use you ❤️
When a mother says he or she is no good for you. You better listen, I had to find that out the hard way.
Thank you for this testimony. God is a gracious and forgiving God. This spoke personally to me. I’m young, single no kids and asking the Lord to prepare me for my future. I want to do things the right way. I am seeking first the kingdom of God by following and living out his word.
Im in the process of seeking multiple council because I don’t want to go off of my own understanding. So in this single wilderness season, I’m living for Christ and in my study room with him. God bless💕
AMEN AMEN AMEN,, Me 2, SISTER, This #2ND TIME AROUND!😇💯💚
Me too sis
I agree and I am on that same page, ppl don’t understand, I am waiting on God I trust God not humans, I want God to bring him! Because I know it will last if it’s God, and him to bring the Man who believes in marriage forever and not this divorce mess!!
@@niteadixon AMEN AMEN AMEN, SISTER, ME 2!!!🙏🙏🙏🙏🙏
@@KM-oy5yh sis we ain’t playing with the devil, we gone glorify God! And please believe me I have patience waiting on Gods best! I will wait! I have understanding! And I know my worth plus more! My identity is in Christ not this world nor people! I came in this world by myself and I will leave it by myself! Amen to that!!!
That Jezebel spirit is strong in Hollywood.It’s similar to Kanye when he started to become convicted about his wife’s immodesty.Sometimes these women are so used to being immodest and rebellious.They equate being immodest as being an independent modern woman.Think about Gabriel Union she is very sinister.She runs her household and is leading them to destruction.Devon said he really wasn’t interested in dating a Hollywood actress.He tried.He went against his better judgment.
Kanye was convicted 🤣🤣 now that’s funny. People are so easily fooled
Ayesha curry and ciara are another 2 that i see being pulled back into the world.
Most accurate comment I've seen in this comment section. It's Jezebel.
Jezebel is at work everywhere but mostly in Hollywood. I pray that God helps us avoid the tricks of that spirit.
This was a great message and testimony. Thanks for sharing and being transparent. Amen
Thanks for sharing... I pray what you shared benefit many who listen. Thanks for your transparency.......
This was touching and humanized you for those who haven't heard your story. I too have been hurt by church folk and still avoid it because of that trauma, however, after having my daughter God has been speaking to me. I can officially say I walk by faith not by sight and as you said nobody can stop what GOD has for you! Keep inspiring people are listening and being healed.
I totally can relate. Thank you for sharing your heart brother,🙂 God bless you! Continue to do what your doing for the LORD.🙏🏽☺️
I have been happily and unhappily married to the same man for 31 yrs. There was adulatory by my husband, but we worked through it and I had to build back my trust with help from God. Now we have a stronger marriage.
The biggest mistakes of my Life was marrying an unbeliever.
Me too!!
Me too. Omg. Never again.
Even though I never married one I dated one and yeah biggest no no I’ve seen in a long time 🙅🏽♂️
This is what Devon did. He said he knew she wasn't saved but yet he still married her. If you're a christian & planning on marrying an unbeliever, you've already set your marriage up for failure. They talked about saving themselves for each other until marriage, but they also admitted in an interview, that they used to share a bed overnight together, pre-marriage, even though they didn't have intercourse. This is still sin. Devon has referred to unsaved people as his mentors and to one unbeliever, as being his guiding light ! This man needs a lot of prayer.
Needed this 💜💜🙏🏽🙏🏽 Its not over for us! God is always with me even when I feel lost and not capable . Thank you! Your spirit is so encouraging and powerful 💕 God bless
Teach Marcus. I been there, seeing my mother in abusive relationships. I did not know how to have healthy relationships. I almost lost my life staying in a toxic marriage. God does not condemn us. He wants us to grow and get the lessons from our past mistakes. New mercies everyday to get it right.🙌🙏🏽
Great message bro Marcus. There is nothing that God cannot redeem through the Blood of Jesus. He makes all things New!
I'm happy you told you're story If I could go back when I was 18 I would of told myself to put God first and to wait till marriage I'm 22 years old I've been celibate for 2 years I used to cheat on guys because of how they will put me down as to them I wasn't physically attractive enough i was molested at the age of 5 now I learn to love myself i focus on God I live by myself I don't have that many friends but im learning to depend on God and letting God use me 👏🏾
I remember Devon even encouraged her into ungodly actions. She could do whatever she wanted to do, dress how she wanted to dress. Devon as the Head and Pastor was very wrong. He rejected rebuke. Not only her. Test the spirits.
Wow I love this ! I have made so many mistakes but God kept me and saved me … the enemy tries to make me feel I’m not worthy because of them but God kept me 💕Thank God for grace and mercy ! Amen! Excellent word Brother Marcus !
Hi Pastor Marcus my testimony when I met my husband we dated for a few months and we connected on a spiritual level first and he was the only man I had connected like that with . We prayed together n read the Bible together and God told my hubby that I would be his wife . But God told me he wanted us to take time apart n to grow more spiritually n he would bring us back together. So a few years later we came back together and we got married n have been together for 22 years it has been work not easy but we love each other have 4 kids n three grandkids. The Miller family.
Love what you’re saying, it’s so true, I have been married for forty years and its a struggle but all the glory belongs to God
This was a great discussion. Thanks for being transparent and sharing your story. How you shared the word on this topic is clear and from a genuine heart. Thank you for your labor of love!
A lot of men do this too. They have been hurt and find a God-fearing woman and are attracted to the thought of being in a "safe" space.
Yes.. This is correct!!
You are so on point Marcus! You made amazing points that the word defends.
Marcus this was so good! Have not watched you since the 2020 election. Thank you for sharing your testimony!. This was the best video I've seen you present! It was real and most of all from experience and how God's mercy was upon you.. Now that's a testimony. Please keep these types of videos coming. This video touched me deeply and I cried. The holy spirit was truly moving through your truth. The word says the truth shall set you free! Let us all be discerning and hear clearly from the Lord on our God ordained spouse. Been there done that and divorced twice. Will wait and pray on Gods choice for me.
Appreciate your transparency, brother Marcus! I’ve been skeptical of some of the things you’ve said over the years but this right here is solid. I’m truly sorry for being hard on you over the years. I can certainly relate to some of the things you said. Keep being transparent & keep sharing the word of God. Blessings & prayers to you and your family.
Judge no one! Pray for eachother! Forgive everyone, love everyone and grateful for everything!🙏🏾
1 Corinthians 7:15
Amen
This entire 3 hour live stream Marcus JUDGED! Then he made it about him! Then he decided to exalt the Grace of God but never mentioned Jesus Christ or offer SALVATION TO THOSE WATCHING!! He quote scripture but don’t give the text where it is found in the Bible so people can read it and study it for themselves. Marcus admitted to all 9.2k people that were watching that he used those names(Devon & Meagan) to lure them in!! That is MANIPULATION!! Just listen to him carefully! So he LIED to everyone of them, then tapped into the viewers emotions with his life story, just to ask if they want to DONATE $ or visit HIS church house!!! People I pray that the veil be lifted off your eyes 👀!
Marcus was actually being honest and transparent. Him speaking will help people feel not alone.
Kelly the bible also states that u can judge righteously.
What I've learned from them is to not marry when u are unequally yoked. It's okay to be alone till that person comes.
I was just thinking yesterday how much I have changed from just 4 years ago. When I was with my son's father, I believe that spirit if jezebel was on me. I was using drugs at an early age. I was the last to lose my virginity of my friends and one of the first pregnant at 17. My son's father I assumed was doing me dirty so I decided to do the same. I had been hurt so bad up til that point and cheated a lot. Needless to say we are not together. But I lived like that for a long time. Went to relationship to relationship. Now I couldn't imagine being that person today at almost 35. Thank you Jesus! Your videos are always right on time.
We have similar experience.
God bless u
I’m so grateful for your sharing, a lot of of women don’t speak enough about our shortcoming and how we overcame ❤️
❤️
Brother Marcus, you realized you were preaching the entire time... You are 100% correct about many of these church folks out there acting as if they are holier than thou. I really appreciate your transparency and I know in my spirits your testimony and your encouragement have helped so many young and even more mature folks. I do believe you were called for Yah's ministry.
Good word! Amen to all of THIS!! God uses broken people for HIS GLORY!!! Thank YOU JESUS 🙌🏾🙌🏾😩😩❤️❤️❤️🙏🏾🙏🏾🙏🏾🙌🏾
I will say this, a lot of things were discussed before marriage and it definitely was not about how Meagan looked for De’von. There connection was mutual and he took his time with his decision as to how far they were going to go. (Btw, she is my godsister so I know all of this). They had several conversations yet throughout the years, things changed and communication was key where they tried to work through it. Yes, Meagan has had previous issues in relationship yet when her and Devon met, she was in a different space and place spiritually. Wrong guidance and counselor from other Christian leaders made her feel the way she has been in her career was ok. As we know, the enemy comes in and when we are not rooted and grounded in His word and do not know how to spiritually fight off wrong guidance due to being a novice in the Lord, she was guided down the wrong path and it had an affect on the strength of her marriage. More to the story yet let us just pray God’s divine will to occur in this situation. At the end of the day, people have a choice to be totally submitted to God or not. Thank you for your insight and share.
Thanks for the insight but other leaders made her go against her husband and choose her career?
Well said!!
It amazes me how people don't apply caution in opening their mouths & speaking against this relationship (or anyone else's for that matter). They're cursing themselves if they do.
Megan is a babe in Christ & church houses are full of wolves these days. You'd be surprised how many blind witches (those unknowingly under a stronghold of manipulation & witchcraft) and practicing witches sit in key positions of influence as gatekeepers for Satan within churches.
I believe from the beginning, the enemy took aim at both these two specifically to split them up b/c they represent purity & God's standard in the face of Hollywood perversion.
I'm praying that her eyes be opened & that he not be dissuaded through discouragement by the enemy.
TRULY.. DEEP INTERCESSION IS NEEDED FOR BOTH DEVON & MEGAN.
God her Devon was her husband, such an amazing testimony.
Amen amen amen. It’s heartbreaking to be mislead by others not fully grow not fully mature spiritually. God Bless
Sorry to hear of their divorce. They need to come on out of Hollywood and work on following JESUS. HE has to be a focal point. Will say a prayer for them.
Bless u for your encouragement. I've made a lot mistakes didn't know better, hurt, rejected, used by bad people including Christians, all my life living in pain. Today I'm almost 40 years old single women, I feel my life is over in so many ways. I don't even know myself sometimes. The only thing keeping me to live is His peace inside me, I thank God for that. But today I believe God is bigger than my problems. HE IS MY VICTORY!!! Not me.
Amen
God Bless You, Seek God for your Purpose, and Understanding - focus on fulfilling Purpose and your Destiny. That's the only way to get your life back!!!
I'm 36 and single. I'm a year celibate. I'm living for God now. I am waiting on him. There is nothing better than self love and inner peace. To God be all the glory. I don't have kids I have never been married and it doesn't bother me anymore. I'm tired of living in sin, tired of broken relationships. You are not alone. I prefer to stay single and have inner peace. I leave everything in God's hand now
This former woman at the well just lost it! 😭🙌😭 I was praying & asking about this exact subject 2 HOURS b4 this broadcast! 😭🙌😭 WRECKED! Sooooogoooood! God is SO good! Thankyouuuuu for sharing this today! 9 years of healing since my last divorce & WOW! He STILL piecing me back together piece by piece! He WILL use my pain for His purpose! Rom 8:28 🔥

Thank goodness I'm still single. I want to learn all that I can so I want make a mistake.Thank you Marcus for being honest transparent.
Thank you for this. Going through divorce with 5 children and I am so lonely. This gives me so much hope. Thank you for allowing yourself to be a vessel and used for His glory
May God continue to overwhelm you with joy ♥️
Mannnn this is so real. I can truly relate to his testimony this is a real message 💯. I was literally brought too 😢 tears. Wow
I listened to their Audio book THE WAIT and that set my journey of so far 7 yrs. Thank u for the msg
Pastor Marcus thank you so much for your testimony 🤍🙏🏾 Your fearless love for Christ is an inspiration and I pray that GOD continues to use you in MIGHTY ways for His remnant for such a time as this🙌🏾
Amen 🙏🏾 powerful message I have been single 7 1/1 years now, but waiting for who God has for me. I am not accepting anything less and neither should anyone else.
The clarity and transparency of this message is refreshing...brother Marcus i salute you
Amen!!!
I believe the only thing we should be doing and speaking on as believers and followers of Christ is the restoration of their marriage and praying for them to be reconciled together. We should be praying for their marriage, not talking about it, that is gossip. We dont know what happened between them, every couple struggles in a relationship but God can/will work it out if you let Him. Marcus as a pastor please pray for them and encourage others to do the same, thats the biblical thin to do. Be blessed all!
We have to pray for discerment in these situations. Some people are actually planted by satan to hinder your walk with God.
Best comment. I deleted a comment earlier I had to ask myself if they were to read this comment would it build them up or tear them down. We have to be careful about putting our mouth on people and we don’t know either of them.
@@MrEvans557 EXACTLY right
God’s Will
everything that happen to u pastor Marcus it was a package of ur calling.. may God bless you more
After Listening on so many blogs and podcast on TH-cam. I am thankful that I got to hear you Man of God!! Thank you. WELL DONE!
BEST teaching on Marriage I’ve EVER heard! It’s full of wisdom, truth, compassion & love. This should be a requirement for ALL married couples; as well as those who are considering marriage. God bless you Brother Marcus, your family & ministry. Praise God! 🙌🏾
He's not a marriage counselor!!
@@robertphillips2642 A person doesn’t have to be a marriage counselor to speak the wisdom of the Most High on marriage. God bless you brother.
@@TheExcellentFamily you just don't get it do you?! Oh well, good luck!!
The Lord knows that I needed to hear this today. Thank you for sharing your testimony. I seen my friend struggle being married to an evil person and she’s suffered and continues to suffer because of him. But religious people have told her to “love hun through it”.
She's needs to pray and asks God to let him Go
If she's suffering God will give her what she needs and wants
Religious people can lead you to an early grave
Amen, Brother! Thank you for your honest testimony. I have two children by different fathers and the Lord has set me free from so much including my guilt over having them out of wedlock. I trust that a kingdom marriage is in my future and I believe the word of God (Jeremiah 29:11 comes to mind!). As you often say, real ones know!!!! We know the hurt and the battle you’ve fought, we have fought too and now we fight with you and for Him!!!!! 💕🔥✝️🙏🏻💗
Marcus, thank you. Because you are teaching many of us. Thank God you are here to use your experience as a testimony. You are changing a lot of young lives.
38:03 he said he was gonna Paul-it. When you don't make marriage an idol, you see God blesses us with marriage and that is so powerful, well said! 🔥🙏🏽
