      Some people are allowed blessing that has nothing to do with god. The bible talks about this. A big part of it is God is allowing non godly people to provide a negative example so that god can bring up the positive example. Kinda like how justin bieber changed from sleeping around to being married. Theres a lot of variables involved, its hard to explain. But its all normal.

      I think people can make their marriage work if they are willing to give in. But ssk yourself, how many attempts did they have before marrying someone? With God you don't need to be going through all that, He will make you ready for someone He has already envisioned for you. Can you affirm most of those couples are happy? Or isn't it looks? How many of them will divorce? Sure, there's also that possibility being with Christ, not because of Him, but because of our stubbornness. I assure God wants people to be happy, He loves them, He loves you, and once they're married with whoever they picked, God will help them keep their marriage, if that's what they want. But are people asking for God's opinion (which is perfect btw)? Nope. So there's pointers people follow: feelings, looks, status, etc. God certainly can make power couple, but people aren't really giving their relationship to Him.

      I love Greek people, here in Australia there is many 😊 but I have noticed as growing up catholic the arrogance towards catholic people sometimes it's even stronger than from protestant groups, like a venom in it, a hatred. So much for loving "enemies" and Catholics aren't enemies just Christians who are very close to orthodox in belief. Anyway have a good day, and other than religious bias i really love the Greek persona and way of living ✌️

    I think you have a good perspective on all that. Plus, sometimes what seems like a blessing can be a curse. When people get into relationships when they are not doing it God's way, over a long period of time it never turns out well. Sometimes God spares us of relationships we think will be good but over the years they would be terrible. We can trust God because he sees the future unlike us. God bless! Thanks for your comments :)

    I am 52 years old, and true love in the human sense has eluded me. I married imo the wrong man, and he abandoned me, and I am not looking forward to spending the rest of my years alone. This is my story and the story of millions. All my life I've heard God has something better for you, tried to do the right things, and somehow got it all wrong. I still believe in God has my best interests at heart, but He has increasingly less to work with in this corrupt world. You can also be married and very lonely, as I was. What I would say to everybody is that marriage is not the answer to loneliness, love is. Make sure your single parents, friends, children, sisters, and brothers, are a priority in your life. A lot of us look to a possible romantic relationship just to have the sense of love and belonging that a family or great friendship can provide. Single or not, everyone needs that.

      Aye. I know how you feel. I'm 35 year old male in the same boat. I've only dated about three different girls for a total of about 6 months so I've been single most my life. I went through several years of just having given up. I really wants kids, and I've had times of giving up on that too. But I wait for her, my wife. Because I know that it's better to have one day with her in the future, than a thousand days right now with the wrong person. I've seen so many people who commit themselves to the wrong people out of impatience and then when someone much better suited for them, dare I say their "soulmate", comes along, they aren't free to be with them and both are forced apart. It's sad. That's why I choose to keep myself single, for the woman I was made for. Could I end up 40 or 50 and still waiting for her? Yeah. But to me, it's still better.

    • @noahark5804
      @noahark5804 6 лет назад +5

      Yes I did this and thought it was from God and wasn't as close with God as I am now. I asked God for a husband and a week later met who I thought was Gods mate for me. It turned out to be the worst most abusive thing and now I see all the warnings God put in my face. But God loves me so much still and has blessed me in the situation and I know so much I didn't and He has refined me so I can be that proverbs 31 wife for the one He has. I wouldn't have been as close to God nor understood so many things I do now had I not went through all this. He promised to bring me a Godly man that will lead us, put God first, and give back double all the enemy has taken. Idk if it will be my husband restored or a new man but all I need now is the Lord if I never got anything else. Never give up and always seek God's kingdom first.

      ‭‭2 Corinthians‬ ‭5:17‬ ‭NLT‬‬
      Therefore, no curse can work in your life as you belong to Jesus Christ. As He has made all thing new in your life.
      He love you so much and all you need to do is accept and believe that He loves you and put all your trust in him. And He will grant your heart desires.

God doesn't give you everything you want if it goes against his will!! Everything comes in his timing!! Not all God's people were meant to get married!! Marriage is very difficult and hard!!

Trying to have the mindset to focus on him and myself but when you're always single and w/o family, you feel left out as you see everyone else happy.

    Mark, I hope you consider this in all your videos. Please be careful to not to over simplify why the Lord does what He does. I think we have to look at the whole of scripture and see examples of why God made those wait in scripture. The only 2 people in all of scripture that nothing negative was said about them was Joseph and Daniel. They were both sinners too but God made them wait. In fact more than most and they were in obedience to the Lord. His ways are higher than ours and making us wait is always directed at God wanting us to teach dependency on Him. Not everything is simple and has an answer. I've found as I've gotten older and my walk with the Lord that I really don't know a whole lot. I thought I did but I have a long way to go in my walk. I'm in no way criticizing your videos, just a gentle reminder that we who have the gift of teaching and discernment of the Word of God need to be careful not to over simplify things that may seem easy or seem to have a direct answer in scripture. Some things are much more involved and everyone is unique and special in the eyes of the Lord. Blessings!

I also wanted something more flexible so that I could pursue my dreams of what I felt led to do. I even asked dor more money because it seemed like I didn't have enough and was living check to check. My love life has been so hard so I don't even ask for a boyfriend or husband.
    God assured me that he'd excel me and give more money, but the question still stands... when?? I've just been in a place where I'm trying to sit still and build back up my trust again and I just don't ask for much anymore.
    The fact is that we can ask God for things all day, but we won't get anything unless it's His timing and will.

Married 25 years almost and together with my husband 27 and he just gets up and walks away and never looks back because he's narcissistic and he remarried within a year and a half and I lost everything I ever worked for I lost my company I have no finances I'm barely living off pennies to pay my bills I still have my house but I'm in debt to it so I really have nothing but God and I know I've become so much stronger since this has happened to me. He ended up marrying a non-Christian Jezebel woman who knew I was married and she helped break up my marriage by allowing their Shenanigans II go on.. everything I seem to do is a shut door I need God's help and his Direction and his Mercy amen.. he took my company from me that we built together and that was my future income and it's all gone.. I do not agree with what you just said about living in sin because I wasn't living in sin when I was married to my husband so I don't know who you're talkin to maybe single immature young boys and girls I'm not really sure what you're saying here but I don't agree with it. I also had a Ministry in my home for 9 years and me and my husband walked strongly with the Lord so your information is not connecting to what I went through at all.

      Yvonne Errend hello, first i am sorry for what you are going through. You are correct this video may not necessarily apply to you. It not cut and dry nor is it one size fits all. Reading the book of Job we can see that God allowed the devil to torment Job and til today we do not know why. But we find out in the end that God restored Job; he didnt give him the exact same of everything he lost...he gave him better. Trust me i understand, i also went through similar circumstances and no matter what i did, believing that i was moving in faith AND with God on my side...it blew up in my face or the door didnt open for me. We have to trust him despite how hard and painful things are. I stopped doing anything because i felt that God wanted to handle everything...so i have been letting Him..with him leading me. You have to continue to go to Him, He will direct you...it may not even feel like He's doing so, but He is. STAY in your bible. His spirit will direct you, talk to Him daily and soon enough you will realize He is talking back to you. He says your latter will be better than your former (Haggai 2:9) sometimes things will get worse before they get better. God is taking you through a process of some sort. I know that trusting God is easier said than done, but its the best thing to do in any situation. As for your husband give him back to God, pray for him he will need it. And as for you God is with you, He said so...He is close to the brokenhearted binding up their wounds. Take each day one day at a time and allow Him to work in you to heal you and to help you forgive......i am speaking from experience

    I know that parents or, even, a lover may punish the other party or withhold something from them, but even if they just don't get it or respond how we would like, and we see them reaching a breaking point, we step in and stop the punishment as we don't want them to "break."
    I'm not sure God steps in; if you don't get it well over the edge you go.
    I've been hoping, waiting & praying for a decent job over 23 years now and still nothing. I've applied for a lot of gov't jobs, even did gov't entrance exam & scored 4th highest mark but still nothing. When one retires from these jobs, one gets gratuity payment & pension.
    I applied & tested (made over 90%) in different facets of police service but nothing. I've worked with people who are in the service now, and they can't read, write properly. Basic salary in police service is like $10,000/mth & perks.

  • @agnes8679
    @agnes8679 2 года назад +2

    People need to stop thinking that pleasing God = earthly rewards. Some of the people who love God the most, who are the most pleasing to God, are the ones who seemingly are not being "blessed". This is because a lot of Christian doctrines have been contaminated and are misleading people. Do you really think that the martyrs, the saints, those who suffer daily and still bless God's name aren't a lot more pleasant in the eyes of God than someone who is a happily married Christian in the US, whose concerns usually revolve around little things like how to decorate the living room, what to make for dinner, what to wear for Church? Look at Jesus, one of the most difficult and painful earthly life someone could have experienced, a heavy cross, yet He is God's predilect. Look at the thousands of Christians being persecuted and massacred in foreign countries who have been faithful to death and in spite of suffering, in spite of losing their children, their spouses, and in spite of poverty? Are they not doing enough to please God?
    I find it so saddening and disrespectful towards faithful Christians who carry the heaviest burden of the Cross in this age, to imply that the reason they aren't getting a husband is because they aren't pleasing God enough when there are plenty of people getting married regardless of their level of pleasing God. No, the Bible even warns us that some of the least pleasing people are the ones who get the most blessings on earth, and that is their reward, because the ones suffering and being pleasing to God will get their reward in Heaven. So, we need to be humble and thank God for our earthly blessings but never think they mean we are pleasant to God because of them, in fact, maybe we should get concerned because it might mean we might not be rewarded as much in Heaven (the more attached we are to these earthly rewards, the more concerned we should be).
    The Bible, in particular the New Testament, teaches us that in this world we actually should expect suffering, sometimes the closer a soul is to God, the more it will suffer. It is even recommended that we remain single to better serve God.
