Dear pastor @Vlad Savchuk, may i suggest if you can open up a single's ministry , the well, where not just youth (which already exists in each church) but mature generation can meet, like you did meet your wife. We all pray, we all go to church, follow your advise. it is much easier to meet worldly people, that are not equally yoked, why not create online Well, from your church, i trust your family, values and your church, if you guys create a well, accessible online, that would answer many prayers, including ones listed in all these comments. God bless you pastor and your family.
Yeah, but them seeking you is not wrong whereas if you seek marriage, you're making it an idol, nit them. I used to like this saying but truthfully, it's not the full answer and one sided.
Singleness can be beautiful but if you're a woman who is turning 40 it is a very lonely and sad place..... but you learn that having Him is all one really needs❤ shoutout to all the single ladies out there, you are never completely alone, you are not forgotten, God has a plan 🙏👑
I'm 40, single and childless. Never been in a serious relationship. It's a little weird to me and I don't understand it bc I've always wanted to be married, but God knows all and His plan is best. It's hard but I'm learning to trust him. That's all I can do. 🙏🏾❤️✝️
Great encouragement! I’m 41 and still waiting as well. I have been working on myself in the meantime and now working on finances and being physically healthy while I wait. Having faith for something so long can get arduous but God gave us examples of what not to do in the Bible. I have learned that since faith is shown by works, me getting my body as healthy as possible to maybe get to carry a child one day is my work according to my faith. Just remember to live and enjoy life, we definitely need to be able to be happy on our own.
I'm turning forty and it's making me try to start dating and it just keeps imploding. All I need is God and God's plan. Thank you for your post. I feel less alone just knowing you're out there. ❤
Yes, but that also can be a bad way of looking at it, if you sit back and do nothing to pursue a relationship that leads into marriage. It's like saying if God wants me to preach to somebody I will, but never pursuing to open up to that person with the gospel, though you may have the urge. If you never open your mouth to say the words. He's leading you to say it won't be you who's doing it. I think it is important to still have an active role in pursuing and looking for somebody. When pursuing a marriage. And that's what gets discouraging for people. Is trying and it not happening But I could be wrong. I just know that I've been trying for years and I don't want to give up and I want to be married. I've had the desire even when I was a little kid to be married and have a family
Everything you have said is so so true. I am 35 years old virgin. It's been more than 10 years i havent masturbated,watched porn or been in a relationship. I am living my life happily & enjoying my relationship with Jesus.
MARRIAGE DOES FIX LONELINESS WHEN IT'S THE RIGHT ONE!!!!!! I had a very happy marriage and loved loved loved being a wife and a mom to our miracle baby Samuel!!!!! It was happy until my husband dropped dead. Marriage is HEALING when it's the right spouse. LOVE HEALS!!!!!!!! I was abused as a child, rejected and abandoned. YES MARRIAGE was WONDERFUL because my husband LOVED GOD and loved me in a divine supernatural way !!!
Thank you for the encouragement! I’ve heard that marrying the right one does help in many areas and don’t believe those who say otherwise because usually those are the ones who married the wrong one. May God Almighty add joy to you!
First of all, I'm very sorry for your loss. Secondly, thank you for saying this. Love is supposed to fix loneliness. Why? God saw it wasn't fit for man to be alone. I'm 33 and for the first time in my life, I was to get married and have a family of my own. I have played for years for the Lord to change my heart and give me a heart for marriage and He's been working on me for sure.
I love what you have said. Now he is watching after you and Samuel from above. I would love to experience the same and name my future baby Samuel. The baby Hannah has prayed for.
I’ve been alone for over 20 years, i hope God will bring a wife in my life, i cry like a little kid for a couple of months now I don’t know what’s wrong with me I can’t explain it.Please pray for me if you come across this comment, my name is Daniel!
Praying for you, Daniel. I'm also single. I'm 57 and was married twice, both times until death. Then was disobedient to God and married a third time which ended in divorce. Trust God and spend time with Him. He will be with you.
@@melissaebarb3116 Thank you, i will pray for you aswell. It’s a good thing if people pray for each other, can give peace. This prolonged abstinence gives me an unrest in my body, when i go to church it eases the tension.
I'm single too Philippines. I'm alone but not lonely I enjoy my singleness. Going to Gods work without someone to ask permission to. Like evangelism in the mountainous area.
I’m committed to singleness my whole life to focus spreading the word of Jesus. I don’t need a spouse. I have genuine aspirations to travel worldwide as a missionary.
Interesting. I’m a single woman and have always felt like I needed a missionary minded man to be a missionary couple. As a single female it’s unsafe to be in some countries and other countries don’t respect women speaking to men about religion or God. Are you male or female?
🌸Gods timing is Perfect. He’s never late He’s always on time. Trust in His Timing. Be Still and Know that l Am God Isaiah 40: 31 But they that wait upon the Lord shall renew their Strength. Psalms 27:14 Wait on the Lord,be of good courage, and He shall Strengthen thine heart, Wait, l say on the Lord. Ecclesiastes 3:1 To everything there is a season, and a time to every purpose under the heaven.

May the Lord Bless Thee and Keep Thee 🕊✝️❤️
I do not mind being single and celibate, but if I can be transparent, I do not want to stay this way forever. I am praying and is hopeful that God is preparing my husband for me. Meanwhile, I will stand in my stance in the Glory of God.
I been praying to God to prepare me for my future husband and yesterday during prayer I asked God what to do while single. And today I get on yt and see this, God is so thoughtful.. I trust his timing, he has brought me peace 🕊️♥️
The family bound in Christ, the only comment section on this modern world where everyone is happy and at peace being single. Proud of you guys. I’m there too
I was not happy that I am still single at my age , especially for someone who always wanted to be married ...I have prayed that God helps me remain content in my singleness. And God has helped me with feelings of rejection and loneliness. 😊
Definitely struggling a little bit with being single in my 30s. I’m living with my Mum currently. I’m watching my friends have families. I’m happy for them but I can’t help but feel stuck. God is good and whatever his plan is for my life will be for the best.
Being married for 33 years and now a widow for 2 1/2 years has been a new world for me on being single. In my case I know how to be a wife not being single. You are correct being with someone is not going to solve thr looniness. I tried to date for a short time, I did see that I loved but was not loved back which I still felt alone. I was reminded in scripture to abide in Christ as he abides in me, being in Christ I should never feel alone! Along side the scriptures Isaiah 54, he will not remember the approach of being a widow and that He is my husband. In 1 Cor 7 reminds me that if we are burning of passion to get married, however he recommend to stay single with self control. You’re correct; marriage, dating does not fix it. But being in my word, prayer and submitting to His will for me not my will for myself. It’s a challenge but to overcome this challenge through seeking Gods will for me daily, discipled others and submit to his direction for my life is what helps the lonely feeling subside. Thank you for your words of wisdom and reminding us that our marriage in Jesus is more important than any person.
I have to say that I'm not ready to listen to the entirety of this message because it feels like it's an easy thing to preach from someone who's not single anymore. However, from what I've listened to so far, I appreciate the clarity of your choice of words, so thank you ❤
Vlad your church has been an immense blessing to me. I am closer to God now than I have ever been before. I’ve learned that the importance is not just attending a local church but the time that I spend with God in my personal time - reading His Word, learning how to pray and understanding the demonic strongholds that have had me in bondage. Thank you and praise Jesus forever!
You have to choose (both you and your wife/husband) to be the one. You have to choose love the other person. No such thing as the one. It's all about choices.
Thank you very much! I was a non-believer in my 20s and made many of the mistakes you mentioned. Now that I'm a believer over 50, I can confirm that all your advice and suggestions are definitely good!❤
You literally described me and my entire life. From rejection to not feeling like I belong anywhere, I pray for deliverance. Every young person needs to watch this video
I am also single, and unless the Lord shows me differently, I am on my journey with Jesus, and will stay exclusive to him! ❤☺️… and will joyfully stay a “Paul-ina” ;)
Pray for me. Singleness has left me angry beyond measure and doubtful! I thought I have done all the inner work / spiritual work to be at peace… I am still frustrated with singleness and waiting
Hi Pastor Vlad, this was my answer from the Lord. This whole week has been hard for me dealing with singleness. I love how God knows what we need and is always on time. Thank you Jesus🙏🏾
I’ve been single for 3 years and very content. I had a married customer who became a Christian friend through mostly phone calls. I didn’t realize that he had feelings for me until he told me. I told him he is married. But what I didn’t realize is because of these constant conversations I actually fell in love with him. I didn’t see it coming or realize at my age that this could happen. So take heed to these words of wisdom and stay with the same sex. My friend and I did the right thing and have stopped all communication. But it’s painful.
As someone who feels have fallen short to the lords kingdom and have been in relationships the last 8 months where the individuals did not lead me to christ and left feeling broken, this video spoke to me. The most bizarre thing is that I’m on the treadmill as I watched this and the video ended right when I finished my 44 mins of walking. Thank you Vlad for this video as it was valuable.
Great advice for single people. ❤🙏❤️ your message confirmed alot of messages I’ve been receiving from the Holy Spirit as a single divorced lady. Especially about staying pure & live a holy life, as others don’t understand why I don’t want to play the field (eg tinder). Love your message on finding your well too.. the lord definitely wanted me to watch this message, thx
“Marriage doesn’t heal your holes. Marriage reveals your holes.” “If you’re a single person, don’t postpone your deliverance, breaking down strongholds and submitting yourself to Christ.”
How about this one? My parents told me marry a person that runs quickly to God first when you both have problems, not another person or short term pleasures.
@@christopherram8948 oh yes God does tell you what to do and who to marry. If you have the holy Spirit he does for sure otherwise yes if you're not a born-again Christian you're on your own good luck
@@richjacobs9736a no he doesn't. Lots of Christians who said that heard the holy spirit tell them who to marry, are now getting divorced. So miss me with that nonsense. Marriage is a choice. Loving someone is a choice.
61 years and still single. It's tough! Yes, Jesus was single, and so was Paul. But the church never mentions that fact. The pastor always bangs on about the merits of marriage and how wonderful it is for him. As others have said, you can count on one hand how many times he preaches on singleness in all the time you are a member of that church. I was saved in 2001, and married men would tell me God would bring her into the church. Nobody did any evangelism apart from me, and the people I bought in were already couples. The church eventually closed down, and now I am along with a friend who is trying to start our own church. I visit other churches, but it's the same story.
God doesn’t hand out of the gift of celibacy to everyone. The church nowadays acts like he does. It’s not normal to have so many single Christian men and women well into their twenties and thirties. God made us spirit, soul and body. We are still biological beings under laws of nature God created. Yearning for spouse and children is how God created us to be. God desires families and marriage. This thought that singleness is a gift really destroys the Human being in us and makes the God given yearning for spouse out to be wrong. Hundreds of years ago we married by 21. There’s reason for that, God gave us desires for sex, for Union. Asking someone to remain celibate and see singleness as a gift when that is not natural or the gift God gave them is not recognizing how God made us. He made us to marry and have divine Union of marriage which includes sex. I long for courtship the way it used to be… dances and ballroom events. I wish the church would instead of talking about singleness start creating an environments for singles to meet and find marriage. We need to understand our nature, the nature of men and women if we did we would approach marriage differently.
@@Thestrongone844 I never said it was a sin. It’s not a natural state. We were created to be in relationship to God, to our fellow man and our spouse. I don’t argue with God, I follow his natural laws we observe in nature and know through scripture.
@mallorygieringer5112 Everything you've said is correct. It's a shame the being single is being pushed by Christians who are already in marriage. Is straight up bullshit. There is no effort made by the church to bring singles together in order to become married and start families. Celibacy isn't for everybody, and far to often we enter sin because it's not natural for us to be celibate ( 99.9%) of human beings.
@@mallorygieringer991 your point of view is interesting. It'a true that these communities used to be much more intentional about making people meet for marriage. Interesting take too
This was sooo good. I w been so focused on building myself and my life in Jesus where I want to attract a man who I would love to be with because I am that person. I pray for God to present me in front of my husband where I frequent at the most. Whether it’s coffee shops, parks, traveling, church, and the grocery store lol.
I love watching your videos!! Grateful the lord guided me towards you! You speak the truth! I have cricket teeth and I am single. That is probably one of my biggest insecurities, however I have a huge smile and cannot hide my cricket teeth. But whatever is meant to be is meant to be. I have faith in the lord. He has lead me to your TH-cam page and preaching. He came to me last night sang me a little riddle. That probably doesn’t make sense to anyone else but definitely makes sense to me. Thank you Pastor for making us little humans feel like big humans. Thank you Jesus for allowing me to come across pastor Vlad very honored to watch his teachings! I praise every word and guided by his testimonies. Love you Jesus. For all you single people. Do not give up! Jesus loves his little children all the children of the world, red, and yellow, black and white they’re so precious in his sight, Jesus loves all the children of the world. And we are his children. Hallelujah!
So powerful as always pastor Vlad. A lot of beautiful nuggets for our singles. I have forwarded it to the singles I know .And so true ! Being Single is not a curse . Marriage is a magnifier who how well you developed yourself during your singleness!! ❤ So true!
I was brought up in a family, married for old aged so that someone can take care of you. My parents worked hard to give me a financial free life but the attention parents ought to provide as a child was missing thus i am never closed to my parents nor emotionally able to connect with them
Jesus I PRAISE you! Lord give me strength I’m struggling providing for my children. I’m so discouraged but I will keep faith because faith is all I have left! I suffer from lupus, and heart disease. I have two beautiful boys both are special needs. I’m overwhelmed because they require so much from me. I started homeschooling them due to bullying. Every month is a struggle to not end up on the streets but yet I still praise God. Thank you Jesus.💕
Your situation will change soon dear sister. I pray that God will take charge over your family right now. Please be strong and keep on your faith. The Lord Is your redeemer.
THIS was perfect for me and where I am at. Thank you so much. I’m already started on the right path and surrender. Now it’s about building my relationship and ministry with God 🙏🏼🖤 Thank you SO much for making this! THIS IS A MAJOR BLESSING TO ME. God bless you my friend!
This is one of the best messages I have ever heard. I thank the lord every day for the blessing I receive, such as this video. We are given everything we need when we need it. I needed this video at this exact moment. Thank you Vlad, continue spreading the light. Amen 🙏
Sooo good. 🙌 Been enjoying the singleless so far serving in the House of the Lord - while waiting for my future spouse with discernment at the well. Love my alone time with the Lord.❤ 🙏
Agree. I saw every young person getting married and into relationships, and I thought I was left out, but then I realized that I am not, because I should not have children when I am not ready to take care of any and can’t at least give them what my parents gave me to get an education before having any children, and I do not want any of my children to turn around and look down on me and ask me why I didn’t do this or that when it could have benefited them. Also, the individual who I would want to see to be with just by their looks alone may just be one of the most disrespectful people that I should not be around. I should not agree to the bad situations that anyone wants to put me in especially when God gave me the freedom to get what I can get before being in any bad situation. Amen.
Am really blessed, watching this timely. I shouldn't waste my single years by just building a list of the things I want but I should build my character more than I build a list of expectations.
Praise God...Hallelujah 🙌 🙌 Thank you Pastor for this beautiful message...I learnt a lot...Building Character and Build yourselves for the Glory of God...Hallelujah 🙌 🙌 This message really helped me and I am Blessed...Hallelujah 🙌 🙌 much needed message for me...Hallelujah 🙌 🙌
All of this is so true & I really appreciate it! 💕 HOWEVER, this is also overwhelming because I have many weak areas. I don’t even know where to start. Sometimes I feel hopeless in my efforts to improve as a woman. This year, I have made a conscious decision to refrain from any dating to focus on growing closer to God and character development. I sincerely desire to be a wife one day…but more importantly, I desire to honor God with my life. Please pray that the Lord will do a MIGHTY work within me! 🙏🏾❤️
Thank you so much. Much needed for myself as a single person. I need to improve so many things for myself before I get married. Worth watching ❤ Once again thank you ❤❤🙏🏻
Thanks Pastor Vlad. This is practical. I've remained single and pure because the Lord told me to wait. Singleness is in fact a season of wholeness to get more intimate with God. A state of bliss and contentment even when you're alone. It reminds me of apostle Paul nonetheless - devoted to Christ 😊🙏
I’m 26 and really needed to hear this, Glad you said being single isn’t a punishment. I still have my whole life to find my soulmate in God’s timing is unmatched to My timing.
Thank you for this video! It came at a good time. I've known for awhile that its not the right time for me to be seeking a relationship and in the long run it is for my best interest. Your points were very helpful and great reminders. 👍
17:38 it’s not impossible yall. By the grace of God, it’s 9yrs of celibacy for me. Marriage is the goal, not sex and temptation. One woman/man Be the example for your generation and family
This video validated my thoughts about singleness. I learnt about the “Well”. Thanks for explaining it. I pray for the grace of God to stay holy, pure and of good integrity. I pray for the grace to pull down every stronghold and become a wife so that my husband can find me. Amen. Thank you for this sir.
Ugh how about u pray for a husband for 10 years, he's finally given to you but drops dead a few months after the birth of your miracle baby?!! Story of my life !! Single married wife mother widowed...God's plans are so wonderful! Gotta love it
Wow! That’s a series of unfortunate events. Sorry for your loss. This may not help but it could actually be worse. I had some neighbors newlyweds and something horrible happened, she had a new baby and he lost like 60-70lbs and it appeared they were getting a divorce because of something he got himself into. I could tell by their faces…. Someone else may come along ❤
You had true love. Youre sad because hes no longer amoung us...but you havent been hurt by your late husband. You have precious memories...and when youre ready maybe the Lord will bless you with a second marriage.
First of all Amy… I want to say I’m truly sorry for your loss, and I know how painful that is for you and for your child growing up without their provider & protector… But I want to also caution you that it doesn’t build resentment in your heart concerning your relationship with God. Even though we may not always understand why He does things at the time He does them, always know He has a purpose for your pain. If God allowed it, there’s a purpose for it… To develop you and grow you. I know it’s difficult to understand when the pain is seemingly insurmountable, but I want to encourage you to give it to your ultimate Protector and Provider-which ofc is the Lord. Elisabeth Elliot lost her first husband (to a group of indigenous ppl. They killed him while she was on a mission trip in a foreign country & she had a two-yr old at the time) and then she got married to her second husband and he also passed away and now she’s married again by God’s grace and she’s one of the wisest godly women of our generation bc she uses her pain and suffering to minister to others abt the goodness & faithfulness of God, even in extreme pain. Allow your pain to be your source of strength… to teach other women how to come closer to the Lord. You’re never closer with God then when you’re broken hearted and going through struggles… you have to use that pain to press into His Presence. Psalm 34:18 “The LORD is nigh unto them that are of a broken heart; And saves such as be of a contrite spirit.” I encourage you to read a book from Elisabeth Elliot… it will encourage you in your trial. May Jesus restore your joy, peace, comfort and abundantly heal you. Blessings will come your way, despite what you have endured and you’ll thank Him for those times of being broken… bc it brings you closer to intimacy with Him.
Singleness won't kill u and marriage won't heal u, this i'm gonna keep in mind. I'm so releaved with this message, excually i recognize everything in it to be hounest 😅. I'm gonna share this. I can't be the only one not feeling up to date.....😁 💌

I been praying to God to prepare me for my future husband and yesterday during prayer I asked God what to do while single. And today I get on yt and see this, God is so thoughtful.. I trust his timing, he has brought me peace 🕊️♥️
I can’t help but feel I should be coming home to a wife and kids, instead of to an empty apartment. I’ll appreciate any prayers
Amen. God has heard your prayer
Amen
Amen
You will have your Family continue to pray and fast believe
Sending hugs
The family bound in Christ, the only comment section on this modern world where everyone is happy and at peace being single. Proud of you guys. I’m there too
I was not happy that I am still single at my age , especially for someone who always wanted to be married ...I have prayed that God helps me remain content in my singleness. And God has helped me with feelings of rejection and loneliness. 😊
I appreciate your honesty! 🙏🏽
@@shemotivatesem9299your beautiful
Definitely struggling a little bit with being single in my 30s. I’m living with my Mum currently. I’m watching my friends have families. I’m happy for them but I can’t help but feel stuck. God is good and whatever his plan is for my life will be for the best.
Marriage will not remove but highlight your flaws❣️so focus on healing as a single individual. Such a timely reminder
"Fear not, for I am with thee; be not dismayed, for I am thy God. - Isaiah 41:10 🌟"
Be single is the best way to stay pure. Feels like the only way for me
Being married for 33 years and now a widow for 2 1/2 years has been a new world for me on being single. In my case I know how to be a wife not being single. You are correct being with someone is not going to solve thr looniness. I tried to date for a short time, I did see that I loved but was not loved back which I still felt alone. I was reminded in scripture to abide in Christ as he abides in me, being in Christ I should never feel alone! Along side the scriptures Isaiah 54, he will not remember the approach of being a widow and that He is my husband. In 1 Cor 7 reminds me that if we are burning of passion to get married, however he recommend to stay single with self control. You’re correct; marriage, dating does not fix it. But being in my word, prayer and submitting to His will for me not my will for myself. It’s a challenge but to overcome this challenge through seeking Gods will for me daily, discipled others and submit to his direction for my life is what helps the lonely feeling subside. Thank you for your words of wisdom and reminding us that our marriage in Jesus is more important than any person.
This is so crazy that Pastor Vlad posted this 15 hours ago, I wrote in my journal this AM June 15, 2024 that God is leading me to wait.
My condition right now,am healing and encouraged, am taking notes, I chose to be happy
I have to say that I'm not ready to listen to the entirety of this message because it feels like it's an easy thing to preach from someone who's not single anymore.
However, from what I've listened to so far, I appreciate the clarity of your choice of words, so thank you ❤
Vlad your church has been an immense blessing to me. I am closer to God now than I have ever been before. I’ve learned that the importance is not just attending a local church but the time that I spend with God in my personal time - reading His Word, learning how to pray and understanding the demonic strongholds that have had me in bondage. Thank you and praise Jesus forever!
Not every person who gets married marries the one. You can marry someone that is a narcissist. You have to ask God to send you the one
So true! Tons of married couples out there who are wrong for each other and the relationship isnt Godly.
They have to know God first because Satans waiting to answer those sinners prayers 😅
@Godiswith_HER Exactly!!!!
@SanctifiedLady Facts!
You have to choose (both you and your wife/husband) to be the one. You have to choose love the other person. No such thing as the one. It's all about choices.
Thank you very much! I was a non-believer in my 20s and made many of the mistakes you mentioned. Now that I'm a believer over 50, I can confirm that all your advice and suggestions are definitely good!❤
Build your character more than you build a list of expectations❣️
Should build each other up not tear each other down
Word
You literally described me and my entire life. From rejection to not feeling like I belong anywhere, I pray for deliverance. Every young person needs to watch this video
I am also single, and unless the Lord shows me differently, I am on my journey with Jesus, and will stay exclusive to him! ❤☺️… and will joyfully stay a “Paul-ina” ;)
Not Paul-ina😂😂😂😂so funny
I can't lie, i can't hide, sometimes I feel lonely, Jesus, i need more grace
Pray for me. Singleness has left me angry beyond measure and doubtful! I thought I have done all the inner work / spiritual work to be at peace… I am still frustrated with singleness and waiting
Hi Pastor Vlad, this was my answer from the Lord. This whole week has been hard for me dealing with singleness. I love how God knows what we need and is always on time. Thank you Jesus🙏🏾
Amen
I’ve been single for 3 years and very content. I had a married customer who became a Christian friend through mostly phone calls. I didn’t realize that he had feelings for me until he told me. I told him he is married. But what I didn’t realize is because of these constant conversations I actually fell in love with him. I didn’t see it coming or realize at my age that this could happen. So take heed to these words of wisdom and stay with the same sex. My friend and I did the right thing and have stopped all communication. But it’s painful.
As someone who feels have fallen short to the lords kingdom and have been in relationships the last 8 months where the individuals did not lead me to christ and left feeling broken, this video spoke to me. The most bizarre thing is that I’m on the treadmill as I watched this and the video ended right when I finished my 44 mins of walking. Thank you Vlad for this video as it was valuable.
😊😊😊
38:20 😂 “hey babe we can do it!” Hahaha love the transparency, it makes it more authentic. We don’t need a rom-com, just the TRUTH.
I am Single and I am happy without being married, I can do more and help more in my community.
Great advice for single people. ❤🙏❤️ your message confirmed alot of messages I’ve been receiving from the Holy Spirit as a single divorced lady.
Especially about staying pure & live a holy life, as others don’t understand why I don’t want to play the field (eg tinder). Love your message on finding your well too.. the lord definitely wanted me to watch this message, thx
“Marriage doesn’t heal your holes. Marriage reveals your holes.”
“If you’re a single person, don’t postpone your deliverance, breaking down strongholds and submitting yourself to Christ.”
I have been single for very very long time. Thank for explaining that singleness being whole and not a curse because i thought it was.
Rule number one never marry anybody unless God tells you to
How about this one? My parents told me marry a person that runs quickly to God first when you both have problems, not another person or short term pleasures.
God doesn't tell you anything. You make the choice. Marriages aren't perfect. Everything you decide has consequences.
@@christopherram8948 oh yes God does tell you what to do and who to marry. If you have the holy Spirit he does for sure otherwise yes if you're not a born-again Christian you're on your own good luck
@@achillessonofsparta6824 yes that is really wisdom from God I would say 🙏
@@richjacobs9736a no he doesn't. Lots of Christians who said that heard the holy spirit tell them who to marry, are now getting divorced. So miss me with that nonsense. Marriage is a choice. Loving someone is a choice.
61 years and still single. It's tough!
Yes, Jesus was single, and so was Paul. But the church never mentions that fact. The pastor always bangs on about the merits of marriage and how wonderful it is for him.
As others have said, you can count on one hand how many times he preaches on singleness in all the time you are a member of that church.
I was saved in 2001, and married men would tell me God would bring her into the church.
Nobody did any evangelism apart from me, and the people I bought in were already couples.
The church eventually closed down, and now I am along with a friend who is trying to start our own church.
I visit other churches, but it's the same story.
What I have learnt from this sermon is to heal first especially emotionally and balancing my expectations.
God doesn’t hand out of the gift of celibacy to everyone. The church nowadays acts like he does. It’s not normal to have so many single Christian men and women well into their twenties and thirties. God made us spirit, soul and body. We are still biological beings under laws of nature God created. Yearning for spouse and children is how God created us to be. God desires families and marriage. This thought that singleness is a gift really destroys the Human being in us and makes the God given yearning for spouse out to be wrong. Hundreds of years ago we married by 21. There’s reason for that, God gave us desires for sex, for Union. Asking someone to remain celibate and see singleness as a gift when that is not natural or the gift God gave them is not recognizing how God made us. He made us to marry and have divine Union of marriage which includes sex. I long for courtship the way it used to be… dances and ballroom events. I wish the church would instead of talking about singleness start creating an environments for singles to meet and find marriage. We need to understand our nature, the nature of men and women if we did we would approach marriage differently.
Argue with God. It’s in the bible. Singleness is not a sin. It brings you closer to God because you are more focused on him. It’s a gift.
@@Thestrongone844 I never said it was a sin. It’s not a natural state. We were created to be in relationship to God, to our fellow man and our spouse. I don’t argue with God, I follow his natural laws we observe in nature and know through scripture.
@mallorygieringer5112 Everything you've said is correct. It's a shame the being single is being pushed by Christians who are already in marriage. Is straight up bullshit. There is no effort made by the church to bring singles together in order to become married and start families. Celibacy isn't for everybody, and far to often we enter sin because it's not natural for us to be celibate ( 99.9%) of human beings.
@@mallorygieringer991 your point of view is interesting. It'a true that these communities used to be much more intentional about making people meet for marriage. Interesting take too
Well said I understand what you are saying.
This was sooo good. I w been so focused on building myself and my life in Jesus where I want to attract a man who I would love to be with because I am that person. I pray for God to present me in front of my husband where I frequent at the most. Whether it’s coffee shops, parks, traveling, church, and the grocery store lol.
This is amazing pastor. May God keep using you as a light for His kingdom. This subject is so needed in our Christian community.
I love watching your videos!! Grateful the lord guided me towards you! You speak the truth! I have cricket teeth and I am single. That is probably one of my biggest insecurities, however I have a huge smile and cannot hide my cricket teeth. But whatever is meant to be is meant to be. I have faith in the lord. He has lead me to your TH-cam page and preaching. He came to me last night sang me a little riddle. That probably doesn’t make sense to anyone else but definitely makes sense to me. Thank you Pastor for making us little humans feel like big humans. Thank you Jesus for allowing me to come across pastor Vlad very honored to watch his teachings! I praise every word and guided by his testimonies. Love you Jesus. For all you single people. Do not give up! Jesus loves his little children all the children of the world, red, and yellow, black and white they’re so precious in his sight, Jesus loves all the children of the world. And we are his children. Hallelujah!
So powerful as always pastor Vlad. A lot of beautiful nuggets for our singles. I have forwarded it to the singles I know .And so true ! Being Single is not a curse . Marriage is a magnifier who how well you developed yourself during your singleness!! ❤ So true!
I was brought up in a family, married for old aged so that someone can take care of you. My parents worked hard to give me a financial free life but the attention parents ought to provide as a child was missing thus i am never closed to my parents nor emotionally able to connect with them
Jesus I PRAISE you! Lord give me strength I’m struggling providing for my children. I’m so discouraged but I will keep faith because faith is all I have left! I suffer from lupus, and heart disease. I have two beautiful boys both are special needs. I’m overwhelmed because they require so much from me. I started homeschooling them due to bullying. Every month is a struggle to not end up on the streets but yet I still praise God. Thank you Jesus.💕
Your situation will change soon dear sister. I pray that God will take charge over your family right now. Please be strong and keep on your faith. The Lord Is your redeemer.
I'm so grateful to have received this today! I shared this with my brother too! Thank you for talking about things that seem taboo nowadays!
THIS was perfect for me and where I am at. Thank you so much. I’m already started on the right path and surrender. Now it’s about building my relationship and ministry with God 🙏🏼🖤 Thank you SO much for making this! THIS IS A MAJOR BLESSING TO ME. God bless you my friend!
This is one of the best messages I have ever heard. I thank the lord every day for the blessing I receive, such as this video. We are given everything we need when we need it. I needed this video at this exact moment. Thank you Vlad, continue spreading the light. Amen 🙏
Can't wait..I'm now embracing my singleness dedicating my time to God..I'm not dating and I'll only date for marriage with God's confirmation
Some very good teaching 🙏🙏🙏🙏🙏🙏🙏 - I was really getting lost, and helping with dealing with loneliness
This was really good I was really struggling with my singleness a few weeks ago I have calmed down now but this was very helpful
Thank you pastor.. What a wonderful message it is... Its really enlightening our single lives... Please do prayer for me to lead holy life
Sooo good. 🙌 Been enjoying the singleless so far serving in the House of the Lord - while waiting for my future spouse with discernment at the well. Love my alone time with the Lord.❤ 🙏
I pray that God continues to strengthen you bro, I truly appreciate your sermons. This is exactly what I need. I need deliverance
Agree. I saw every young person getting married and into relationships, and I thought I was left out, but then I realized that I am not, because I should not have children when I am not ready to take care of any and can’t at least give them what my parents gave me to get an education before having any children, and I do not want any of my children to turn around and look down on me and ask me why I didn’t do this or that when it could have benefited them. Also, the individual who I would want to see to be with just by their looks alone may just be one of the most disrespectful people that I should not be around. I should not agree to the bad situations that anyone wants to put me in especially when God gave me the freedom to get what I can get before being in any bad situation. Amen.
This is the best message I’ve watched on singleness . This whole message transformed my mind, life and emotions. Thank you sir Savchuk
Am really blessed, watching this timely.
I shouldn't waste my single years by just building a list of the things I want but I should build my character more than I build a list of expectations.
Praise God...Hallelujah 🙌 🙌 Thank you Pastor for this beautiful message...I learnt a lot...Building Character and Build yourselves for the Glory of God...Hallelujah 🙌 🙌 This message really helped me and I am Blessed...Hallelujah 🙌 🙌 much needed message for me...Hallelujah 🙌 🙌
Set boundaries upfront
All of this is so true & I really appreciate it! 💕 HOWEVER, this is also overwhelming because I have many weak areas. I don’t even know where to start. Sometimes I feel hopeless in my efforts to improve as a woman. This year, I have made a conscious decision to refrain from any dating to focus on growing closer to God and character development. I sincerely desire to be a wife one day…but more importantly, I desire to honor God with my life. Please pray that the Lord will do a MIGHTY work within me! 🙏🏾❤️
I’ve learned a lot from this series, thank you so much Pastor, God bless🙏
I will be OK if I'm single forever. Because I trust in Jesus Christ
True all it matters is, that We stay with God and God with us in Jesus name.
Hello praise the LORD @SophiaDublin
You'll find the one
I'm really glad I found this channel
Yes it’s sad but the way people feel diffrent and even after all they been through they still love each other
Thank you for touching on the issue opposite sex platonic relationships I was that guy with close female friends 😂 and I was proud of it😅
Thank you so much. Much needed for myself as a single person. I need to improve so many things for myself before I get married. Worth watching ❤ Once again thank you ❤❤🙏🏻
Thank you. Lesson learnt indeed we should focus more on God he will provide
You don't always get what you want but you always get what you need!
Praise the Lord for this video! It truly blessed me! Pastor Vlad is funny as always. God bless you all! 🥰💗
Thanks Pastor Vlad. This is practical. I've remained single and pure because the Lord told me to wait. Singleness is in fact a season of wholeness to get more intimate with God. A state of bliss and contentment even when you're alone. It reminds me of apostle Paul nonetheless - devoted to Christ 😊🙏
Thank you so much pastor vlad I’m so much blessed😭🤍 may god bless you with long live and good health
this message was so good. It also got me laughing alot 🤣😂. Praise God for such teachings!
I learned to find your one at your well, you spiritual connection place to God and it create healthy boundaries
I’m 26 and really needed to hear this, Glad you said being single isn’t a punishment. I still have my whole life to find my soulmate in God’s timing is unmatched to My timing.
I like your dog
This video should be spread far and wide. This is gold!
I very much agree with this. I will say the women in church greatly outnumber the men. It makes me wonder why…
I've learn something new today, thank u pastor vlad may the oil on your heard never run dry 🙌 🙏
Thank you for this video! It came at a good time. I've known for awhile that its not the right time for me to be seeking a relationship and in the long run it is for my best interest. Your points were very helpful and great reminders. 👍
17:38 it’s not impossible yall. By the grace of God, it’s 9yrs of celibacy for me. Marriage is the goal, not sex and temptation.
One woman/man
Be the example for your generation and family
Thankyou Pastor Vald for this wonderful guidance. God bless you!
God bless you plenty Pastor Vlad🙏🏾 insightful and powerful
Thank you so much Holy Spirit & Vlad for this teaching. You always come thru with a timely word.
God is good all the time ❤
I really should show up with an open heart
Praise the lord sister, praise the lord brother ❤😂
God spoke to me today through every word you spoke !! God bless you, thank you !!
Very helpful. Thanks! 🙏🏻 Shared it with my younger sister. We are from Moldova 🇲🇩
Thank you for this teaching pastor vlad,, may God help me to seek more of him as a single mum
This video validated my thoughts about singleness. I learnt about the “Well”. Thanks for explaining it. I pray for the grace of God to stay holy, pure and of good integrity. I pray for the grace to pull down every stronghold and become a wife so that my husband can find me. Amen. Thank you for this sir.
Writing down points I didn’t know earlier, thank you sir…
The second point about rejection IS EXACTLY ME AT RIGHT NOW, FEELING REJECTED AND SELF REJECTING
Ugh how about u pray for a husband for 10 years, he's finally given to you but drops dead a few months after the birth of your miracle baby?!! Story of my life !! Single married wife mother widowed...God's plans are so wonderful! Gotta love it
Wow! That’s a series of unfortunate events. Sorry for your loss. This may not help but it could actually be worse. I had some neighbors newlyweds and something horrible happened, she had a new baby and he lost like 60-70lbs and it appeared they were getting a divorce because of something he got himself into. I could tell by their faces….
Someone else may come along
❤
You had true love. Youre sad because hes no longer amoung us...but you havent been hurt by your late husband. You have precious memories...and when youre ready maybe the Lord will bless you with a second marriage.
That is HARD!!!! 😢
@@etcwhateverthat’s the most insensitive piece of advice I’ve ever read. 😡
First of all Amy… I want to say I’m truly sorry for your loss, and I know how painful that is for you and for your child growing up without their provider & protector… But I want to also caution you that it doesn’t build resentment in your heart concerning your relationship with God. Even though we may not always understand why He does things at the time He does them, always know He has a purpose for your pain. If God allowed it, there’s a purpose for it… To develop you and grow you. I know it’s difficult to understand when the pain is seemingly insurmountable, but I want to encourage you to give it to your ultimate Protector and Provider-which ofc is the Lord.
Elisabeth Elliot lost her first husband (to a group of indigenous ppl. They killed him while she was on a mission trip in a foreign country & she had a two-yr old at the time) and then she got married to her second husband and he also passed away and now she’s married again by God’s grace and she’s one of the wisest godly women of our generation bc she uses her pain and suffering to minister to others abt the goodness & faithfulness of God, even in extreme pain.
Allow your pain to be your source of strength… to teach other women how to come closer to the Lord. You’re never closer with God then when you’re broken hearted and going through struggles… you have to use that pain to press into His Presence.
Psalm 34:18
“The LORD is nigh unto them that are of a broken heart; And saves such as be of a contrite spirit.”
I encourage you to read a book from Elisabeth Elliot… it will encourage you in your trial.
May Jesus restore your joy, peace, comfort and abundantly heal you. Blessings will come your way, despite what you have endured and you’ll thank Him for those times of being broken… bc it brings you closer to intimacy with Him.
This was so good and filled with so much practical and relevant wisdom!
Singleness won't kill u and marriage won't heal u, this i'm gonna keep in mind. I'm so releaved with this message, excually i recognize everything in it to be hounest 😅. I'm gonna share this. I can't be the only one not feeling up to date.....😁 💌
