- I received a question about connecting to the Father's love that I want to address:
"I would like to hear about your daily, weekly, regular rhythms in life to keep connected, rooted and grounded in the Father's love."

In my 34 years of existence on this planet as a Christian growing up in the church, not one single other Christian has ever put this into perspective for me. Thank you so much Mark.
I never knew what parental love was until I had children of my own. Then I understood more clearly why I felt worthless, like a ghost, invisible. Why I had an eating disorder, why I felt suicidal, then all made sense. I can't begin to explain what a blessing my children are in helping me understand the Father's love. I can see how unusual this is also, since it is so common for parents to be toward their children what unloving person they are based on their own trauma in childhood. I remember saying to myself growing that I didn't want anyone to suffer the pain I did as a child, and that I woukd be damned if I ever treated my children the way I was. When I found myself pregnant with my first child I took conscious measures to not give this child my family legacy. So much so that my husband didn't like the changes and left us when the baby was just 3 months old. He wanted to remain codependent, I didn't. It took years even so for me to arrive at feeling the Father's love. I knew it intellectually, but not at the heart level. I'm still learning. Thank God for His patience, His loving kindness, for not giving up on us. Thanks Mark for letting God use you to help us know His love for us.
It's peculiar when I listen to your videos I feel they're lacking something. Then I realise I don't feel like I've truly been preached to unless I feel told off. Sad.
Bernice, that’s funny, sad but true!
Yes !!! Tell me what I'm failing at !!!!
Great Advice Mark!
Your relationship with God becomes very real when you move it from your head and into your heart. It took me twenty years of struggle and frustration to learn this. Just reading the Bible wasn’t enough to allow the Word get rooted in my heart. There are four things that have helped me tremendously in time spent with God. 1. Meditating (outloud) on God’s Promises and character. 2. Time spent in worship and praise 3. Stillness before God for extended periods of time. 4. Praying in my spiritual language. This is not formula. Although has been an important part of rooting the love of God into my heart. It will take time, effort and determination to experience God from the inside out. But you will never regret the time you invested in growing to know Him on a heart level.
This is so true. It took me years to realize the 4 points you state in your post. I talk to God now as if HE was my earthly parent. I’m Grateful to God for His promises over my life.
You’re only the second person I’ve ever heard say that there’s no precedent for praying to Jesus. It’s true. Jesus prayed to Father God, and all New Testament believers prayed to God in the name of Jesus Christ. I talk to Jesus just because he seems more accessible, while knowing he came to make known the Father. So I’ve got growing to do, and I’m happy to be on my journey.
So true. I just timidly told God the other day that it felt like I could talk to Jesus easier than Him. He didn’t say anything but He also didn’t strike me with lightning so *win*. Lol jk but it did feel like He was nonjudgmentally listening. Like, not with sympathy, with actual respect and consideration. I love Him ❤️
Wow! I thought I was the only one... I woke up one morning to a song, Just Like Heaven from Brandon Lake, and God turned it to be about me not HIM! He longs to be with Me and to hear from Me, and he sees me as Perfect (only because of Jesus of course) And just how much love he has for ME! ❤ And this was all really really good advice that I needed! Thankyou for sharing your self and your journey with me!
The father and mother wound chapter made me pause and just cry my eyes out. They always made me feel that I was a burden and something was wrong with me
I know the feeling. So honored I can be a help. I pray the healing tears are fruitful.
Big hugs for you Lauren and may you know your Father's constant embrace.
I am so truly sorry. Praying for you friend. ❤️ You are endlessly loved
Lauren Ann. I felt a burden also ! I understand your pain! It’s not your fault! We are all worthy of love and respect. Give it to yourself! Our creator loves us! Have a talk with your parents about this with a family therapist!! Do not live with that idea do not let it taint your beautiful self and potential! Build yourself, educate your self and help others who also suffer!!
You are dearly loved
Thank you for your grace. Toddler mom here of a 2 year old and 4 year old, and recovering from infidelity and ppd. I am so hard on myself and feel like God does not want me. So, thank you for your insight and grace.
First of all for the past 3 years I read the Bible from beginning to end 3 times, I confess that I was doing it out of fear so that I wouldn’t “ backslide” ( don’t get me wrong the word still washed me and helped me) but now for the first time I am learning to slow down in my daily reading. And really meditating on the word. Second of all I wept hearing this video and I feel like I constantly have to keep my mind busy with something in the background, until and now I understand that the Proverbs 16:24 are not only to be given but to receive them. I thank Jesus for sending this ministry my way to have a “relationship” and Not a religion with God the Father.
🩵Thank You Mark for being instrument for Fathers Eternal Unconditioned 🤍 Jesus The Christ Revealed to .."Call No man or woman your father or woman your mother..for O n e lS You Father Whom lS in The Heaven..and Yet Closer lS He than the 👐👣nearer than the breathing.. The place upon Which l stand lS The Holy Ground"🙏 Hallelujah 🤍Glory to God🤍
I only have an intellectual understanding of God's love. But I know that once I receive a true revelation of His love, so many things I struggle with will just fall away. In other words, I'll experience effortless change. I truly want the communion and intimacy with God that we have access to through Jesus' finished work. But it hasn't yet gone from head knowledge to heart knowledge.
Same
Same too - to a large degree. I think this is really worth pressing into (what Mark is talking about)..
It's very common, I believe in the church but few people are as honest as you on this..We need to be honest and real to begin with don't we?
I believe a lot of Christians have had parents who were hurt and didn't themselves receive the love of God.. Gosh, my Dad was such a hurt, absent man. It's no wonder I had such a poor father experience..this will take time but I believe God knows where we are at!
@@peteroder9656 Amen. Blessings to you and thank you for your insight.
We are taught how to be so hard on ourselves... time to learn how to lighten up, slow down and learn from people like this man. ❤
My wife discovered your Channel earlier today, and this if the first topic I clicked on. This is valuable content that will make a difference in my life. Loved the phrase 'Live from love, not for love'
Thank you🙏
This is definitely one of my needed videos !!! Loved it especially the bible reading. I’ve started to look for scriptures to go against a lot of the agreements that have popped up in my life! So for example HUGE agreement is “ God is angry at me” so I look for where it says he’s not and he doesn’t turn his back on me and just STICK to that scripture !!!
Also ordered the rejection mindset waiting for it to come can’t wait to read it I’m so excited !!!
This is AWESOME! I've been struggling with pressing into the Word. And gen feeling beat up. This gave me such freedom. Thank you!
My goodness, Pastor Mark! What a smorgasbord of knowledge & know-how. These are more than merely practical tips...they are actual keys. I have no doubt that my connection to the Heavenly Father will grow stronger. Even my perspective of a father's love...or what it is meant to be...is changing. I thank you! Heavenly Abba bless you & yours. 😊🇨🇦💖
putting this one on repeat-listening.. some of the steps feel like a disabled person climbing a rock wall, but the honesty of your journey & sharing at least points to the rock-holds of possibility.. -thank you-
Live from love and not for love💖
Thank you for this video it REALLY spoke to me!
MarkdeJesus out here changing lives!
He loves me by Wayne Jacobson is a great book on Gods Love!
Thank you Mark, this message is God's love💕
I just got the book about rejection...so today is the first day of healing...this is good because i try to press into the word and cant or dont feel motivated i get really frustrated...for 10 yrs i woke up in the morning and mechanically spent time with God...thanks mark for the insight
Thank you so much!!
THE BEST I CAN DO WITH BIBLE READING AND PRAYING IS TO PERFORM AND DIG HARD FOR WORDS I THINK GOD WOULD WANT TO HEAR.WHEN I Say praise the lord it feels so fake.I try to thank him for things but it often seems like i;m trying to be polite.I know when gratitude is real.
Thank God He's brought this man into our lives to show us how to get past this mindset. ❤
This is super helpful! Thank you so much for this post!
Thank you for this, Mark. This is profound and empowering especially since I've also come from a background of a legalistic church. I'm growing in His love more and more over the years, and it has never been the same; I want more and more time with the Lord. Thank you for reminding me to "reset" when I get into those perfection/performance-based moments with God.
Thank you!!
Thank you so much for this,your helping me immensely 😁
I am SO glad Mark! Be loved!
Thank you, Mark! Watching from Brazil, you help me a lot!
So refreshing!!’ Thank you for this❤️
Really helpful video Mark, thank you.
Brilliant ministry
I loved this! Thank you
I can't wait to camp and visit the beach.. it's a great way to make the space and be, if that makes sense
It does nature is so soothing for many people. I enjoy just watching the sky before it rains. You wouldn’t think that would be peaceful, but it soothes me somehow.
@@tubailey2459 yessss
Thank you, Mark
Thank you❤
Thank you Mark, this really helped me!
Thank you. 🙏🏻💖
Thanks for this brother, Mark! May God bless you!
Thank you and God bless!
I jist ordered your book❤
Amen.
Great teaching
Amen brother, maybe do a video on how our spouse can help our healing journey by showing us the love of the father
I took a break and liked it a little too much 😊
Hello I came across your broadcast last night I I have been a Christian since the early 80s.And I have been dealing with a chronic illness since twenty eighten And in all those years I've never really heard anything about God loving me.
But I've been listening to other people and I did come across you and I was just wondering.Do you ever talk about somebody?That's dealing with chronic illness?
I don’t understand “relationships” I feel like I’ve been in survival mode for years.
I understand how you feel. Especially if you're like me and you're angry at God for not stepping in when you needed Him the most. I struggle to develop a relationship with God because I feel hurt and betrayed by Him.
@@WheelEstate I think that happens to a lot of us. I can definitely understand. God knows how you feel already. He knows we are human and loves us so much. Sometimes, going through tough situations are a blessing in disguise.
Hi Mark, this has been so helpful!
In which order so you recommend I read your books on the father?
Thank you 🙏🏼🙏🏼🙏🏼
Depends on where you are at in your journey. A good start is always Experiencing God's Love as Your Father. markdejesus.com/experiencing-gods-love-as-your-father/
I would like to purchase one of your e-books. However, I only get the option to purchase paperbacks from your website. Is this no longer available?
How about if you haven't read the entire bible? Is it still okay to read from a passage that I'm currently struggling with?
Dude. I struggle so bad with this. I'm always trying to "figure something out" and it drives me crazy. Is God's love the #1 thing we should focus on?
How to want to connect to God's love when you feel like you are too wicked for God and feel like I'm not good enough to want to feel God's love?
9:56
What just really kills me is this : people who live openly sinful lives expecting to find some comfort in the love of God. If you are living in opposition to the word of God, you SHOULD have no peace. The whole point of that lack of peace and connection with God is to lead you to REPENT!
More Christians and non Christians need to learn about it!
Just sayin, the book of Revelation was written by a different John, that is, according to the majority of Bible scholars.
