    Ever since I was a little boy I’ve always wanted to just find the 1 girl to spend my life with and call my wife, lately I’ve been noticing that’s all I think about and I am trying to focus on God more because I know he has it all planned out and he will bring her to me when the time is right.. but man it gets lonely out here lol

    I think God blessed me with my fiancé. When we met he told me he had had dreams about me a year prior, and he’s the first person i’ve ever been able to fall asleep around that wasn’t my mother. We’ve both grown in Christ so much, we were both lukewarm when we met and we’re doing better everyday. Pray this is a long, happy marriage

      Happy new month. Marriage is a lifetime commitment. Have you ever read the entire king James bible (KJB) from Genesis to Revelation? If you want to go to hellfire, continue eating pork, chicken, shrimps and continue going to church on sunday, Christmas, Easter. *Acts 10:28 KJV And he said unto them, Ye know how that it is an unlawful thing for a man that is a Jew to keep company, or come unto one of another nation; but God hath shewed me that I should not call any man common or unclean.* Peter said that any man God has cleansed is not common nor unclean and that is main message of Acts 10 and Acts 11. Revelation 18:2 calls Babylon a cage of every unclean and hateful bird. The Holy Ghost is described as a dove and doves are clean. Chicken (cuckow) and pork/pig (swine) are unclean. My Lord Jesus cast devils into pigs in Mark 5. If you want to reign for 1,000 years and be in the new earth, eat clean flesh, drink soberly, and worship God in his sabbaths, new moons and holy days. We are to keep the commandments of God and the faith of Jesus to be among the saints. Revelation 12:17, 14:12. Only the saints can possess the kingdom. Your mind and conscience are defiled. Stop exalting sunday over the true sabbath for that is idolatry. They were preparing for passover, not the seventh day sabbath. REPENT.
      *Isaiah 66:15 For, behold, the Lord will come with fire, and with his chariots like a whirlwind, to render his anger with fury, and his rebuke with flames of fire. 16 For by fire and by his sword will the Lord plead with all flesh: and the slain of the Lord shall be many. 17 They that sanctify themselves, and purify themselves in the gardens behind one tree in the midst, eating swine's flesh, and the abomination, and the mouse, shall be consumed together, saith the Lord.*
      *Leviticus 11:43 Ye shall not make yourselves abominable with any creeping thing that creepeth, neither shall ye make yourselves unclean with them, that ye should be defiled thereby.*
      *Revelation 21:8 But the fearful, and unbelieving, and the abominable, and murderers, and whoremongers, and sorcerers, and idolaters, and all liars, shall have their part in the lake which burneth with fire and brimstone: which is the second death.*
      The physical mark is: they erect a digital economy and enforce the physical mark of the beast. Most people, yea, sadly 99% of Christians have the spiritual mark of the beast because they worship the beast. They go to church on sunday, Christmas and Easter. Our Lord Jesus, Paul, John, the Gentiles and I respect the sabbaths, new moons and holy days (passover, Pentecost, feast of tabernacles, etc). Revelation 11:10, Galatians 4:8-10, Jeremiah 10:1-5, Ezekiel 8:16, Acts 12:4 show people keeping CHRISTMAS AND EASTER FROM SATAN. Jesus is the everlasting Father, Alpha and Omega, the Almighty. Revelation 1. Isaiah 9:6. Only the Lord Jesus is without sin. We can be holy, perfect and blameless like Noah, Job, Elizabeth by the help of the Holy Ghost. Jesus is the LAMB of God. Lamb flesh is clean, and we can eat if we choose to. Telling people not to eat clean flesh is a doctrine of devils which Ellen taught. Repent and follow the Lord Jesus. Imagine singing, praying, reading the Bible but hearing depart from me, worker of iniquity. Judge Jesus kept the new moons and holy days like passover, feast of trumpets and others. She wrote that we should have less marriages as the world ends thus forbidding to marry. She did not keep the new moons nor holy days like Pentecost and feast of booths. The Holy Ghost spoke through Jeremiah, Isaiah, Paul and other apostles, not Ellen. She wrote no one can eat clean flesh like beef which is sanctified by the word of God and prayer. The Holy Ghost is the spirit of prophecy and the testimony of Jesus, not Ellen White. Only women need to cover their hair while praying or prophesying.
      Right after repenting and believing, people ought to be baptized speedily with the Holy Ghost and with water. As time goes on, they will learn about the dietary law (not eating pork, chicken, shrimp, not being drunk, etc). Chicken, turkey, pork, roach, dog, rabbit, camel, etc will always be unclean for they are NOT sanctified by the word of God nor prayer. They will learn to worship God the Father in his holy days, new moons and sabbaths which are a shadow of things to come. Isaiah 66:22,23. Colossians 2:16. They will learn that all males need to be circumcised in the heart, ears, lips and in the flesh to enter the sanctuary of the Lord. Ezekiel 44:9, etc. Females only need to be circumcised in the heart, ears and lips. They will learn other things from the Holy Ghost whom Christ Jesus said would guide us into all truth.
      The Ashkenazi Jewish state was established by the UN (mankind, not God) in 1947/1948. People thought the Lord Jesus would return within a generation of the Ashkenazi Jewish state. 70 years is longer than a generation. After 70 years, someone is a grandmother if she had children at 25 and grandchildren at 50. GOD said he would gather all Israel which are the true Christians for his glory, not the glory of man nor the glory of Satan.
      There is only one Holy Ghost but many holy spirits like the holy angels. The Holy Ghost is our Comforter and will guide us into all truth. He proceeded from the Father just like the Lord Jesus proceeded from the Father. Please read John 8:42, John 14:26, John 15:26.
      Jesus is the highest name in this world and the world to come. Yahuwah, yahweh, yeshua, etc are devils. Let us trust in the Lord Jesus for salvation. The J sound has been there since creation and it is in all the older languages.
      In Mark 10:24, our Lord Jesus said, It is very hard for them that trust in riches to enter the kingdom of God. He is speaking about physical wealth and a literal camel. No matter how rich we get, be ready to distribute to the poor. I hate when people say the Greek says this or the Hebrew says this. Bible Hebrew is quite different from modern yiddish hebrew. Even the Ephraimites had a slight accent that was a little different from other Israelites. Why don't people say the Egyptian says this or the Syriack says this or the Chaldean says this? I don't hear anyone saying the Barbarian says this or the Median says this or the Pontian says this. Let us hold fast to the old king James bible which gave the mortal wound to the allegorical first sea beast of the Roman kingdom and the false Roman church that rides him.

    This is extremely timely for me dude. The Proverbs 18:22 and Psalms 147:12 bit especially is really eye opening for what I need to be doing. I don't want to be worshipping this desire and want to be wanting relationship with God more, but I do believe this is a desire from God that I need to pursue righteously, not through how my flesh wants me to act on it.

      ​@@silaspersonal2754 Thanks dude that's a great reminder. Not sure about this since I'm still testing it and need to pray about it honestly, but when I see a girl I want to talk to in an environment that's not a Christian thing, I've just gone up and asked "Hey, mind if I ask you something? What's the most important thing in your life?". If her answer isn't immediately her relationship with Jesus, I just say "Nevermind, I was hoping it was gonna be your relationship with Christ. Sorry to bother you."
      I am asking God for help in if I should go up to her or not, and am not sure if I'm taking this too much in my hands or not, but something I've been thinking about. Don't want to be trusting in my own results more than what God leads me to however.

    I love hearing about the fruit loops and pop tarts stuff. I gave up McDonald's in 2020. I used to have a drink ever so often but I stopped drinking any alcohol (even wine), and I recently gave up caffeine drinks especially coffee. I don't think this is for everyone... But it was specifically for me because I did really enjoy those things... Especially coffee I drank 3 cups a day. I literally felt my kidneys screaming at me for stopping caffeine drinks. 🤣 My lower back hurt for a week and a half from caffeine withdrawal... Then I felt so much better. When you talk about getting rid of non-manly foods it made me think of 1 Corinthians 13:11 (KJV) When I was a child, I spake as a child, I understood as a child, I thought as a child: but when I became a man, I put away childish things.

  • @emahpurple

    A few years ago, I would have seen this video and avoided it. Marriage content, books, videos used to make me uncomfortable. Not because I didn't want to get married, but the opposite. I thought watching those videos would confirm why no one would want to marry someone like me. I've never dated anyone even though I've always believed God for marriage and because of a lot of insecurities, I believed that I'd never find someone to love me.
    Through the years, God has been building my faith and maturity to focus on God primarily. And somehow those insecurities just fell away. I realized firstly that, the love of God equips us to love more efficiently. And secondly that humility is a trait that helps us in our faith and in marriage.
    I've put away that toxic thought about marriage and I'm so happy I could watch this video because it reinforces many things God has been teaching me as I'm trusting God for marriage.

      Hey man I know this was 8 months ago but i just want to say some things to you. I too have this desire to be a faithful husband and father. It is continually frustrating to know that you don’t have those things yet. We as men have those strong desires, but because we value God, we decide to wait for our spouse. It is so easy for this to slip and I myself have failed to things such as masturbation to take away those urges. The fact that I slipped is a sign of a lack of faith and spiritual patience with God. You need to pray for spiritual patience and faith to be strengthened in God’s promises to you my friend.
      I doubt you will see this, but I understand your struggle and as a brother in Christ I believe that you will be strengthened.

The other video was correct in its assessment, but lacking any sort of hope. I must admit, as a 20 year old, I often operate under that assumption of hopelessness for any prospects in this generation. But like this video so wisely said, spiritual maturity is imperative, and losing hope is spiritually immature. I need to remind myself each and every day that His plan, His timing, and His ways are greater than my own and so often outside my understanding.

    Hey I don't normally comment on ANY video I watch not even if I watch the channel regularly, but I have been searching for love my whole life , never got it in the home ,this was a unintentional search not realizing that I was searching till a little while ago and literally just decided that , its exhausting to search and I don't want to do it anymore and so I'm going to pray about it and focus on whats important, and trust that God will send him when I'm in the right place
    So thank you for the advice , the new perspective, God bless you both😊

I’m 28 and my family and I have 50+ years between us. I’ve learned a lot about true love through the way I serve my family. I don’t know if/when God will bring my husband. But I’m grateful to know that at least I am trying to do the right thing and live by God’s word by honoring and serving my family. Even when difficult circumstances pop up.

    In actuality, the Apostle Paul says in 1 Corinthians that we should not seek a wife if we are single. Notice how when Abraham sent a servant to get a wife for Isaac, God was the one who ended up bringing her to him. It was God's command that he not be married to anyone outside his clan, God's providence that led Rachel to Isaac, and God's grace that kept them together. Also notice that in 1 Kings 17 that when God told Elijah to leave for Kerith River, he feeds Elijah through birds and gives him water to drink. And the John the Baptist was to walk in the spirit and ministry of Elijah. Wouldn't this mean God fed him the same as he fed Elijah? Manliness has nothing to do with being hardy, but rather, to be steadfast despite any obstacle. John the Baptist' manliness truly shows when, even imprisoned, he will not change his testimony and preaching for anyone. Every good and perfect thing comes from the Father of lights... he won't send you to get something that will inevitably hurt you every time you go to get it. Be sober, be vigilant, your adversary the devil is as a roaring lion seeking whom he may devour. He will even take your desire for a good thing and twist it if you don't understand how you are supposed to recieve it.

    This has been something I’ve been praying about for awhile now. I was in a relationship with a woman I knew would be my wife and when we had to separate, it hurt me because a part of me was taken. I was going through a dry season at the time, so it made the pain worse. A few months later, the Lord spoke to me for the first time and began revealing things to me, including who I will marry in the future. It was crazy that it was the same woman I knew I wanted to be my wife, and it was comforting for me because God gave me my answer. He gave me the verse Revelation 3:8 and it was the verse he began talking to me

    Im in those middle school ages of my life rn and this passage helped me to remember what my science teacher said (I go to a Christian school) about praying for my future wife. And definetly with how this world is pushing this ideology of how middle-school and high school relationships are ok I’m getting slowly pushed into thinking it is ok but it is not. And you see to many examples of those who are in this awkward stage of life going through break-ups of relationships that lasted like one day, but I know God will make it clear to me who I am to marry and right now, the only thing I should be focusing on is finding favor with God and getting good grades lol. Whoever is reading this I just ask that you may pray for me that God may have control over how I feel about this topic, and just like Alex said, to have a Godly love for others, or thinking of them greater than you.

The encounter I had with the Most High was so amazing it left me speechless and crying like a baby. My life has changed for the better in the last 3 years!

At times i dont know if what i say would end or strengthen us, but she’s so busy trying to elevate her career and bag that I feel left out, even if she does talk to me and loves me, but I feel stuck because even with a master’s i have no career job yet, but i dont let comparison be my thief of joy, i felt the sorrow and regret of actions i took, but still feel sad for wanting to both stay and leave, what is God telling me?

But a married man is concerned about the affairs of this world-how he can please his wife- and his interests are divided. An unmarried woman or virgin is concerned about the Lord’s affairs: Her aim is to be devoted to the Lord in both body and spirit. But a married woman is concerned about the affairs of this world-how she can please her husband. I am saying this for your own good, not to restrict you, but that you may live in a right way in undivided devotion to the Lord.
