1. God will teach you the truth about blessings and cause you to reject both the prosperity gospel and the poverty gospel.
2. God will teach you to delight in Him and commit your day to the Lord.
3. God will sanctity the motives of your heart.
4. God will give you the desires of your heart when your heart's desires have been aligned with His will.
5. God will give you the desires of your heart after His has transformed your heart to desire Him most of all.
Alright. Amen
@Daniella Pawl blessings
thank you for writing it out!
thana mesny blessings
Amen
Amen. If I could add a bonus one: God will allow us to go through intense spiritual warfare before a season of blessings. Spiritual warfare grows and matures us (Romans 5:1-5).
God bless!
Thank you Jasmine.
Amen!
100% facts 100% facts ....i have been going through so much spiritual warfare
Agreed! It also reveals those the enemy can easily use to destroy us. Some folks are more prone to demons than others🤔
I’m a Christian under construction.
As long as your improving, repenting, growing in faith, and expanding your relationship with the Most High. Sanctification is a life long process.

As the deer pants for streams of water,
so my soul pants for you, my God.
I don't know why, but I looked at this and thought it said "As a deer has pants for streams of water, so my soul has pants for you, my God"😂
Good
Amen. I have dreams, wishes, goals I want to achieve and I know HE listens when I pray. All I need to do is continue to study His word and have an ATTITUDE OF GRATITUDE.
Hi there Erica 🙂 The Lord truly does listen to us whenever we pray! May I please ask you to go check out a few sermons by Pastor Michael Todd from Transformation Church under his currently running series "Relationship Goal: Reloaded" in particular the first 3 sermons. You can find his channel here on RUclips as "Transformation Church". I really hope you will be blessed through those sermons, sending you love all the way from South Africa ❤
Amen Amen

My hearts desire is to sing and play guitar and to find true love so I asked to be blessed with finding the women of my dreams and to be blessed with God helping me sing and play guitar for him and to help me with the songs I write. I'm strating to do down the music path but struggling with the devil trying to stop me an tare it down by making me feel like giving up on it. And the true love I'm still waiting on and I need to try to have more faith in both that they both can happen in a dark broken world!
I hope God Jesus will bless you mighty in all your paths for His Glory and may the Father be glorified in His Son (the WORD) in your life as mine, AMEN!
Jesus is God/God (YHWH) is Jesus (Yeshua) : Zechariah 12:1-10, Isaiah 9:6, Hebrews 1:8-10, Jeremiah 1:4-9.......
YHWH Yeshua: You do not choose ME, but I choose you (Mathew 15) And again: The LORD (YHWH/Jesus) knows HIS, whom HE had choose... (John 13) Also read Luke 18 God will hear the cry of His elect.....
Lord Jesus CHRIST (the Son of God) is with you forever (Mathew 28)! Shalom.
It’s like a check list of everything God has taught me in the past year and a half. I’m excited for my future! God bless
Thanks for this video💜 sometimes we want desires that we don’t need and we ask God to helps us he would give us the best. If you want a relationship is to Love God first and experience you first love that is God,
God is good!
Pray for my relationship 😢to be restored I have been miserable😭. I cant take it any more. I pray for patience and for a 2nd chance to stop bein insecure jealous and negative.
I fear I'll die before I even know what my dreams are. My upbringing was so messed up it's taken God a lifetime to fix me, let alone give me a hearts desire. I'm positive the desires I had when young were based on being a broken person. I enjoyed this video. I do delight in Him, and maybe that's enough for this broken child.
Henry Cloud is a good author you should look into. His books may help you
Lynn V Yes! Dr Cloud is amazing!!! The book “Changes that Heal” along with the workbook is a great start! Be well Lynn. I’m praying for you!
I'm with you Lynn. He is enough. Sometimes I dont even know what a "desire" is. And sometimes, I'm just okay with that. His timing is his timing, nothing else matters. Be content, and have peace in that, lynn. That's what I'm learning.
I was a broken child, lost, wandering..i found i was happiest serving others..even if i ended up worse off from it..in most cases i was lol..but I had fulfilled my task, and then i would have waiting periods of a couple of years until the next task..each time was a learning curve for me.
If you are giving to others and you are happy doing it, then that is your purpose,..what ever your dream is or desire, if it is with selfless means then God will come through...
Your reward will be the by product of the purpose...thats what iv experienced...
Im not a perfect person, far from it, and i was probably the most sinful through my earlier years..yet God used me to do alot of things...my life has been more in line with Abraham and moses and joseph and David than it has ever been with Jesus...after all Jesus was perfect as God is perfect...i can never be perfect...am i blessed?..yes!!.i have been blessed to be a blessing to others...im not rich, far from it, but God gives me enough to do what guides me to do..and for me to do it, he told me to give up my home, give up my possessions and come to the philippines...am now in quarantine with my newborn baby daughter, have been for 10 weeks, cannot return to uk,..God has me where he wants me...im at my red sea moment, cant go forward cannot go back, and have now been guided to buy land to build my partner and her two boys and our daughter a house in the pineapple fields next to mount matutum volcano..a beautiful area, Truely what you would expect God to choose...so im waiting again on Gods next move!!...
I needed to hear the part about the poverty gospel not being true, I'm going through a really hard time in life right now, and part of me thinks things just won't change, and ill be stuck in this hurt and pain and hopelessness until I go to heaven,
Amen, God is lavish with his love on us, Romans 5 is helpful
@@ApplyGodsWordcomMarkBallenger thank you for that! also thank you for attention in your comment sections and caring for people
I feel the same way as u, were in this together😢
We fight our own battles, we fight it hard and during the process we trust God, he will guide us and strengthen us to endure it all. And if we remain faithful he will definitely surprise us with a better result! Speak from my own job searching experience
Amen brother, i never realized all this while i had been leaning on gospel of poverty.. Thank God i saw this video💟
I wanna be blessed to reunite with my uncle again, but the Lord is the most high of! He blessed me and him to have a wonderful friendship!
God bless!
Then you should go back to him and be with him.
Boom! 5 out of 5 too! In all things honor and glorify HIM! Otherwise it is meaningless! I struggle with the motivation issue, wanting things but afraid that I want them for the wrong reasons. So, all I k now to do is ask HIM to cleanse my heart, and make it more like the heart of HIS son.😀
I've been waiting, Father 🙏😭
Delighting in God is not the price we have to pay in order for God to bless us. Rather if you choose to truly follow God and commit your life to Him, and also trust Him with your life, you will live a blessed life filled with all the blessings God already had in store for you but was preparing you to receive.
Before God gives your your heart’s desires
He must first transform your heart to desire His will.
Be grateful for what you do have and thank God.
God doesn’t owe us anything but still loves us unconditionally as His children, taken our punishment that we deserve on the Cross, forgives us when we fall short of His glory, and blesses us with many things big and small.
God knows what’s best for you and His timing is impeccable. Trust in The Lord and commit your life to following and pleasing Him.
God Bless
"But God loves Creation. And Creation loves God. And though you are living in Separation, in the physical reality, though you appear to be an individual separated from other individuals, separated from your Source, and within yourself separated from the deeper Knowledge that God has placed there, you are still part of Creation. God still loves you. And you love God." The Heart of God - New Message from God
Please pray for me I’m a 20 yr old who found God about threes years ago & although at first my faith was great, I’m struggling to even consider myself a Christian at this point & instead I rather be considered agnostic. My heart longs for biblical truth & I’ve cried out to God many times now but can’t seem to regain my faith. I’m genuinely scared of my mind. I’m scared of never feeling Gods presence over my life & it gives me severe anxiety
Praying. God knows your heart. You can give it to Him. That is the safest place to put it.
I pray one day God will send be a Godly spouse. My heart has just been recently broken - we broke up because he said he needs to fix himself first. It's so hard to deal with this pain now as I'm living alone and my parents are away. This quarantine makes the healing process much harder. Please help pray for me to heal from this pain. God bless everyone.
THANK YOU GOD FOR USING THIS CHANNEL TO SHARE YOUR LOVING MESSAGE.🙏🙏🙏
My God supplies all my needs according to His unlimited riches in Heaven by Christ Jesus.
😱 oh Lord! God has made in me those things, now I'm in a waiting season, passing a desert but! I suppose after it, I'll be tremendously blessed 🙌
Thank goodness there are teacher like Mr. Mark that will tell you the gospel truths. Instead of sugar coding and watering the bible down. 🙏🙏🙏
there are preachers out there that are concerned about our souls😇
We want to rejoice in the Lord all days of our life. Please pray with me and my sons. Thank you Jesus.
Make the Lord the delight of your heart, love God with all your heart , mind and soul. When you do this you have no need because the Lord is your shepherd, seek God for God to his face to love him more not for his hand or blessings. When you have him you have everything
Thanks for the wonderful message, God will bless you if you desire him foremost.
God is good!
Obedience to God is essential if you desire to be blessed by God.
That stood out to me
Recently my heart felt so broken, because there were these people who I believed were christians who just kept shoveling blame onto and shaming me for something I did wrong in the past. I didn’t even know I was doing anything wrong at the time. But even after I owned up to it and said I sorry they never forgave me. What they said to me really hurt. It made me question my faith and it made question whether or not I was saved or whether God really loved me. The other night I asked God to give me peace from this, I asked Him to forgive me and He did. Why can’t they forgive me? If they have the love of God in their hearts shouldn’t they forgive? I know it’s hard to forgive someone, especially if they’ve wronged you. Just yesterday I ran into someone at a store who wronged me. I smiled and waved at them and they waved back. I forgave them for what they did. I forgave them because I loved them. I believe that’s something we should all do. I’m not saying if someone does something wrong they shouldn’t be punished, but if someone does something wrong against you then forgive them. And if you’re having trouble doing it then give it to God and He will help you. Don’t hold against them, don’t hate them, because that’s wrong. But love, forgive them and pray for them. I got to say, after giving all of this to the Lord I’ve never closer to Him than I do now.
I've been pursuing a career in construction for the last four years when recently a friend encouraged me to apply at Teen Challenge.. i believe the Lord may be calling me into ministry to work with people and not be pent up on a jobsite lol
Do you understand how KEY this video is to a walk with God? EVERYONE should see this. Especially people who have studied the word for a while it might be more understable for those.
Lawd!! Help me cuz l'm a fool!!!
@@tonycole5209 😂 me too
You are a legend bro, glorify God through Jesus Christ!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! May you and your loved ones be very blessed and so are your seeds like Mr King Abraham, may I daresay this.
God bless you! I'm so grateful for the messages you share. The Lord has spoken to me so many times during your messages. I believe that is because you always tie your message with his word.
Dear mark I am from India and I'm experiencing the same situation and always god talks to me thru u and I'm very glad n thankful for ur videos here
Please pray for me that I may do all of these thing which you have just said in your video, which in reality God is telling me. I am having trouble doing these things. Please please pray for me
I wanted to include that desiring God most of all will not be a result of you agreeing with Him all the time. God tests, disciplines, and stretches our faith. The willingness to trust is what boils down to perfecting our life long narrow path.
desires of my heart: my family become mature christian and all us will praise HIM.
5 for 5 LORD Jesus, I'm Ready!!
Thank you Mark! As always, an on time word for me🙏🏿♥️Blown away by your points especially the first one re prosperity and poverty gospel. Blessings to you, your family and ministry🙏🏿
Mark your an inspiration to many...God Bless You
God bless you too! All glory to God!
Beautiful and indeed correct message Mark . God bless you always 💜🙏
Thank you, Mark, as always. I’m reminded that we are being called to love God above everything else. There is no room for obtaining desires selfishly but only through seeking to please God and do His will.
Now I surrendered everything to God.He holds who will get married to and financial goals Lord do your will
Thank you so much. All of your videos are awesome.
You have helped me in so many ways.
You are so welcome!
Glory to God 🙌🏼🙌🏼🙌🏼🙌🏼
this is a really good brother. I am experiencing almost everything you explain here. Thank you
I keep having dreams about me figure skating. For some reason now I have the passion to figure skate. Irk maybe God is calling me to try new things. I wonder why I keep having these dreams?
God bless
Ashley Moss, you are probably having the dreams, because your mind knows you better than you think. I would go for it and be happy with the time you have to do it now because later you may be to busy. Do it knowing you 'll be glad you did. 💯💃🙌
@@williamfowler8924 do you think God is telling me to skate?
@Fountainblaze okie
@@ashleynicole2963 I've had dreams about me in war and in training for war also. I have a strong passion for the military, I've also had dream where I believe God revealed to me what to go in specifically and sometimes I check myself to see if it's just me or God's will and the more I pray about it the more the passion grows and it scares me sometimes but I think God might be calling me to join but I'm still waiting for God to tell me when it's the right time and it's difficult, I'm sure God might be calling you to figure skate so I hope it works out for you.
Praise the Lord for making himself first in my life, for without Him, I can't do anything. He's blessing me and making me whole by making Himself first in my heart. ♥ God bless you, Mark!
Pastor i have all the love i wanted family, friends, God, Jesus, But i am missing one thing i love of a partner who loving as i am and accept me for who i am. With this love i am not motivated enough to achieved things i want to do. But mostly for God Glory. What God words for me? I accept. Self loved not good but love is. And i need a love of a partner. My best life is heaven. And i so loved God and Jesus. But i so need this. I felt far apart from God. But will never give up on him. Nor will forsake him. I will aways help other and do my calling Abba Father for what should do with out you and you know that a want a loving partner.
This may help: ruclips.net/video/MwXnvMiok-I/видео.html
@@ApplyGodsWordcomMarkBallenger I accept God that i need the love of a partner. But right now is not the time. Or to make friends who will support me. I am not angry at you or mad at you but love you God. I just felt that i missing one love that would motivated me to succeed in life. Which is love of a partner. But right now is not the right time. In heaven shall be my wedding. And many things to come. But i need supportive friends.
@Khrixs
You asked: “Does God still love me?”
“For God so loved the world, that he gave his only begotten Son, that whosoever believeth in him should not perish, but have everlasting life.”
John 3:16 KJV
God so loved the world - that includes you. Here are some more verses about God’s love for us which is in this article: www.biblestudytools.com/topical-verses/bible-verses-about-gods-love/
God STILL loves you. Hebrews 13:8 tells us that “Jesus Christ is the same yesterday and today and forever.”
you are loved
@@kirus4954 God never gives up on his people. God's love is unconditional. Yes Jesus loves you khrixs
Mark, my opinion is to do the best you can on earth as it's done in heaven. And do for other as you want them to do for you. You can never match the Blessing in heaven with earth things because it all good.Earth is just a way of why and how you do. The rewards are for what the intended use of the user does with them for Gods Glory.
People are so selfish now days, if we do good to them , they forget and and they put you in difficult times which I experienced but I know God know everything but again I help them , have feelings for them and support them because I know my reward comes from Heaven
God's Daughter, I know you have a good heart. But some times people forget to give back or are more about just themselves. You have to remember tuff love is helping you and them. Don't let anyone take your kindness for a weakness. My way for some is to give back first before you get me again. And believe me there are many ways to give back. If it may hurt you to help.You say. At this time I'm not able to. I like to tell some people I want to do this or that for them in return and do it but make sure it's something they need. Not what you want. Your kindness to yourself is how you feel about what you can do. Not what someone else wants. When you Trust Yourself you grow strong. Hope this helps. ❤🙏
Dear Mark,
I admire you so much, for the really good answers which you have in any situation!
Thank you very much for everything you do and offer us in this project!
May God continue to bless you and your loved ones in all of His ways! 🤗🤗🤗
Until now, I haven't realised that there is a "Poverty Gospel"!😊
I love this message....Thank you for the enlightenment and spreading the word of God🤍🤍
I've been so lost for so long. I pray for His guidance each day cos the more I desire to seek Him the more further away I get away from him.
Love these videos! The only thing I don't agree with is saying "health" is a material blessing. Material blessings are characterized as possessions that can be purchased and/or tangible. While health can be maintained, it can not be purchased nor can it be held in ones hands.
The timing is so perfect! Thank you for the video, Mark!
Our prayers get replied according to our needs.
Just wanted to say I love your Chanel and your wisdom has changed my life forever 💕💗💗 god bless you
How do we work for that kind of bond with God? What steps should a Christian take to get there? Because I know God is trying to get me there right now in my life and was wondering if yall had any tips?
Those who draw to God they draw each other by the grace and the love of God. Amen. The key is fasting and prayer. And love never fear color and they live by their conduct not by wealth or qualification not at all. But when we put God our everything He will bless us this life and the life to come forever with our family and descendants. Amen!
Ps: How do I connect you? Pray for me that our unique and loving Father who is not far from us will draw each of us according His will in His perfect time the one faithful to Him and to me. Amen!
What I have is only Jesus christ my God and LORD forever. Amen
Keep up good work and stay tuned for the LORD Jesus and His imminent soon return. Amen!
Glorify god and only god, god has a gift for all of us but first we must put our faith in him.
Thank you Jesus for i am so ready for my hearts desires of blessings to come but two are those that i can take to heaven with me they are juiceybear my dog and david my fiancee in the mighty name of Jesus amen
Amen No word comes from the lord will fail he is faithful thanks be blessd.
God works in mysterious ways.
Thanks Mark
Glad you enjoyed it!
God let your will be done in my life as I continue to give you the praise in glory 🙏🏼❣️🕊️
Wonderful video! God has definitely graced you with the ability to make biblical truths & concepts direct, digestible, and easy to understand for us viewers. This has greatly blessed me. Thank you, Jesus, and thank you, Mark! 😊
God bless! So glad this was useful to you!
This video is exactly where I am right now
No desires, no disappointments. All day.
I can do all things through Christ who strengthens me, thank you Jesus
AMEN 🙏 Thank You JESUS To GOD Be The Glory forever more Hallelujah 🙌🙌🙌
Thank you mark for all your hard work!! I think I will be enrolling in AGW university next time around
A NEW HEART HE WILL GIVE YOU. Thank you Lord. Amen ❤
Prosperity, abundance, wealthy are Gods promise. God is in you and you is in God. You are one. You are the son of God...you have the same power as Jesus.
Where does it say in Scripture that prosperity, abundance and wealth is "God's promise"? You must be a member of Joel Osteen's church.
This video is so timely and well constructed! Thanks!
Ok I understand now
Glad this was helpful!
Amazing I just prayed for this to be explained and this really helped. Thank you 🙏🏾
I broke up with my bf bcz god told me that this is not right. Though he is born again. But he is not right for me. So i brockup. So now my mom's frnd's son wants to talk to me to know each other. So now a days i talk to him and lets see what god will do in my life next.
I just had to stop and thank God for your channel. This came at the perfect time. Thank you for being a dedicated servant. God bless!
listening to this while staring at the sky, sitting in our balcony wishing that God will hear and grant my heart desire 🙏 wishing to have the job i really desire.
My heart desire is to get into the MC OF UNCG. I believe I will get in, j believe the lord will let me get into to the school. In the past year, I've really lost my touch with him, and I think this just really made me realize how much I need him. I need him to go to that school, and this was a wake-up call, for me to go back to him.
Amen. Thank you for this reminder. God bless...and take care everyone.💚
Hi thank you for sharing this kind of videos
God bless you 👏
Thank you my brother. Right in time!!
Sounds about right , I agree with this video
You must receive the promises of God, they are not automatic. Just like you receive salvation by faith, you receive healing and wealth by faith.
This really spoke to me, thank you man
All I want in this earth not to get hungry in I just wanted to have healthy life
What God has put on my heart is if we use our desires to glorify him it will be granted for instance marriage ❤️ he wants your motives to love and care for her not her body
I am So Blessed To Have The Lord In My Life🙏❤️🙏 💞
Its what u do with money that counts
This is so educational and so timely for my life! 😭 Thank You, Mark.
Thanks Mark, great encouragement! God bless you.
