no way. i just got back home after a rough exam and was just thinking about my faith and my struggles with it lately. i open my youtube to this, posted just two minutes ago. wow. God is so, so good. i’m at a loss for words to express my thanks to Him right now.
edit: gosh, i wish i could respond to everyone in the comments :’) i’m with you guys, this past week has been a lot for me mentally, emotionally, physically, and spiritually (think the exam just added to all that) BUT GOD IS GOOD! i cherish even the hard parts, because i know it is all in God’s plan for me🙌✝️💗 praying for everyone🙏

James 4: 6 But He gives a greater grace. Therefore it says, “God is opposed to the proud, but gives grace to the humble.” 7 Submit therefore to God. Resist the devil and he will flee from you. 8 Draw near to God and He will draw near to you. Cleanse your hands, you sinners; and purify your hearts, you double-minded. 9 Be miserable and mourn and weep; let your laughter be turned into mourning and your joy to gloom. 10 Humble yourselves in the presence of the Lord, and He will exalt you.
John 14: 21 He who has My commandments and keeps them is the one who loves Me; and he who loves Me will be loved by My Father, and I will love him and will disclose Myself to him.” 22 Judas (not Iscariot) *said to Him, “Lord, what then has happened that You are going to disclose Yourself to us and not to the world?” 23 Jesus answered and said to him, “If anyone loves Me, he will keep My word; and My Father will love him, and We will come to him and make Our abode with him. 24 He who does not love Me does not keep My words; and the word which you hear is not Mine, but the Father’s who sent Me.
Proverbs 15: 29 The Lord is far from the wicked,
But He hears the prayer of the righteous.
Take 20 min a day & go Grounding outside barefoot in the grass, dirt, or sand. You'll feel much better and less stressed. YAH Bless!
Surrender all to God
Prayers for you
Praying for you, that God will look after you in your struggling. Life can be really hard. God still loves you with unimaginable, undeserved, gracious love.

That's really what this is all about... Not going to Church, not tithing or giving to the poor, or any type of religion, or even being a good person... All that comes with Him; But really it's just, you and your Savior having this deep, intimate relationship with each other. And a relationship with your Heavenly Dad that, loves you in a way no one else could.
Was on my knees last night telling God about how low and rotten I feel. Each time I sin it’s harder to go back to him, especially when I’ve asked for forgiveness from the same sin countless times. I’ve turned my back on him more times than I can count and I know my walk with him has been rocky for a while now. I truly believe this video was personally sent to me from God. Even in the times I feel like the most sinful man in the world, He never leaves. Lord, please walk with me, help me to fix and change the things I can, and please take the things that I can’t. May we all be reminded that faith isn’t a feeling, and that feelings are temporary and fleeting. May all of our faith’s flourish, and may we all have more and more communion with you, the lover of our souls. In Jesus’ name, amen.
This hits close to home since we've all been through the dark night of the soul. This video is a blessing 🥺🥺🥺
You’re not alone brother, may god help you with your struggles
Praying for you man. We’ve all been there before. Just remember that there is nothing that can separate us from God’s love for us, no matter how many times we fall short of his glory❤
I'm reminded, it's not the one that starts the race, it's the one that finishes
After I left Islam at 14 years old, I considered myself an Atheist for 7 years. During that time I experimented with different nonsensical beliefs like Buddhism and even New Age, but God saved me before I got in too deep (halleluyah). Now I'm 28, I've been a Christian for 7 years but I still find myself going back and forth between God and this stupid world. Social media plants doubts in my head and I keep struggling every minute of my life not to lose my faith again. Today I managed to start reading my Bible again, and I hope I won't stray from it again. If you're struggling, please know that you're not alone. And if my future self is reading this and watching this video again: Please don't forget how far God has brought you and how many times He welcomed you back with open arms. No matter how guilty you feel, He's always been there and He WILL always be there. Stay strong and turn to Him, you need not feel ashamed.
P.S. correction, that is the BitBible
(auto-correct is not helpful at all sometimes.
Amen ❤❤
This is a really good and real comment. ❤
You speak facts. Social media does the same thing to me. It plants doubts in my head about whether God is real or not, but I must stay away from it. Culture is corrupt these days, and I don't wish to turn back to my old lifestyle. Thank you for you comment, kind stranger, and I wish you a bright future.
I love you brother! Stay strong! 💪
I've been praying for the last few days for my faith to grow because I'm having trouble believing in God and now this video comes out.
Thanks!

I just prayed for this last night…God keeps showing how much he loves and cares for his children and how much he just listens carefully to all of iur requests. I can thank him enough
Well, that was just one answer to that prayer. Keep your heart open for more.

Mark 9:21-24 NLT
[21] “How long has this been happening?” Jesus asked the boy’s father. He replied, “Since he was a little boy. [22] The spirit often throws him into the fire or into water, trying to kill him. Have mercy on us and help us, if you can.” [23] “What do you mean, ‘If I can’?” Jesus asked. “Anything is possible if a person believes.” [24] The father instantly cried out, “I do believe, but help me overcome my unbelief!”
Your not alone sometimes honestly speaking there are times where my faith has its ups and downs but this verse and My mom is the reason why I keep Going never lose faith in God cause He will deliver

I want to thank you. I’m a single dad and my autistic daughter struggles with not having friends, among other things. We watch these together. Get a good laugh and it really helps her understand God’s grace, faith and reliance on Him. You are great at what you do. Thank you so much and God Bless.
Im curious, how she sees god? Since some autistic people dont see things the same as we do
@@chokispokis Thanks for asking. She believes in God as we read the Bible, pray frequently and talk about Him often. Like everyone she struggles with faith at times, thinking He may do miracles, just not for me. Her struggle is more with the world, and she doesn’t understand why people do what they do, and she can be socially awkward which people respond in a way that makes her feel alone. I explain to her that God is our constant. That Jesus died for each one of us, and that in Heaven we will be so full of bliss and joy 24/7….for eternity…and that God loves her more than we can fathom. That makes her feel good, because she is so lonely in this world (outside of her family life.) Hope my explanation makes sense.
@@Follower_of_Christ498 please God, bless this girl 🙏
I was asking because we think this is so abstract but it can be just as simple as it is
@@Follower_of_Christ498 sending a Hug to u and your daughter. God bless
@@Vesuvius9 thank you so much! It is greatly cherished and appreciated. Intercessory prayer is so powerful, and my daughter and I both appreciate it. I will pray for you as well. Thank goodness for God’s grace. We all have sin, new or long serving to Christ. I commend you on your spiritual journey. It makes me smile knowing you are one of His children now. God Bless you!
Lord, I’m sorry for being so selfish. It was never about me or my feelings. Thank you for allowing us to experience your grace and mercy. Thank you Jesus. AMEN❤
Nice fan fic
For the past two days I’ve been feeling so far from God. I backslid into past sins he has delivered me from. I’ve been ashamed but been trying to get back up. I’ve been praying for Him to change my heart posture and to bring me back to him. To send me anything that will help me out and this video popped up. Started to tear up…God is always listening and loves you.
I've been there, brother. We're in this together. Every word in prayer counts. Every Bible page read counts. Every minute away from our screens just to sit with Him alone... Counts!

Yes!!!🥹🙏
I'm glad faith isn't based on feelings, I always feel left out in church seeing everyone around me expressing so much emotion. I sometimes wonder if I'm just fooling myself thinking I'm really a Christian. Though I have faith that I am, because when I try to witness to people and they don't listen or change; I realize I take for granted that I know and believe. I am reminded that I was drawn to God by his spirit, and I don't have to depend on feelings to confirm that. I don't want to think that others are only based on feelings only, but I can be sure that my feelings will not pull me away from God if those feelings are not what I rely on in the first place. I sometimes would just want to feel what comes with fellowship with other believers, because sometimes I feel like I really lack that, even when I'm in church. I need others to pray that I'll find that fellowship or at least be content with what I already have.
I get the same way at times, God has a plan for us all and I trust in that because I know I’ve already made the choice to say yes to Him. I’m also looking for fellowship with other believers and still don’t even have a church I’m attending, but I know God will help me find one. Just stay faithful and trust that He will lead you to the right people or show you that what you already have is good 🙏❤️ God bless and much love my friend
Hi Josh. God bless you.
This is beautifully written, I can take them as an advice.
Thank you for sharing this Josh 🤍
Once I sent an Email to Beggar saying all I was feeling about my faith on that time. It was hard because I had doubts, but writing that helped me a bit. I didn't give up and I think that my faith is stronger now. Talking about the Email, I don't know if he read that, but watching this video I feel he did, because almost everything I wrote was answered in this video. Thank you and God bless

Wow. One thing I notice is that I am really affected (in a positive, spirit-opening kind of way) by your graphic representations of God and God's love. Maybe the images are a reminder of something I deeply know but routinely somehow forget. Being a forgetful human can be...a bit frustrating. I appreciate all the ways that God finds (one being through these videos) to help each of us remember how to get closer. Thank you for the beautiful/powerful work you put into the world. (and for what it's worth, I personally think these videos are the opposite of "screwing it up")
I'm constantly praying for God to show me how to grow my faith, so this video came at the perfect time. Thank you.

Im struggling with faith constantly. Sometimes it feels like I just desperately want to believe but my heart is not there, sometimes I feel like an impostor. Sometimes when I go to church for mass, it feels like I don’t belong there. I just got back into Christianity like 2 years ago and sometimes when I talk to people who stayed with the church I feel like I can’t relate to them and they can’t relate to me. They’ve just never had those same doubts and questions that I have. I just feel like I’m scamming myself sometimes and that I don’t belong. And it’s hard to unite the beliefs of Christianity with my other beliefs. I just feel lost and out of place
I know how it feels. In one word, deeply discouraging. Learn from the Saints and from Scriptures first, yet keep your hearth and ears always open. Sieve all and keep that Wich is proven. Ask for discernment and always trust the Lord and our Lady more than you would trusth yourself. Let the Lord be thy intelligence and light. To the others you give first instead of taking. Deep Doubts are a singular cross to carry, as well as to be lonely amidst a multitude. But consider well: if no one understands the hearth, the Lord does. Talk to Him and things will happen. Every sorrow is an opportunity at hand. Yet who knows the ways of the Lord? Be ready, therefore. God bless.
Trust him, stay in his presence by reading bible , you have to know his person then the ennemy wont be able to make you doubt about you anymore , he loves you 🙏
I love everyone who watched with with me. God bless you
My girlfriend just left me, and this is the first thing on my fyp. God is good, I just wish I could be better for him.
Don't forget about him when you start to feel better .
Im telling you, when The Lord says he's not leaving you he absolutely means it!
This is something I've been struggling recently taking faith the wrong way, feeling like i have none or nothing at all.
Then he drops this just when i want to want more faith in him ❤
I am Beggar you are truly blessed. I don't like commenting on things but your teaching is truly of God and is so incredibly full of wisdom its just unfathomable keep doing what your doing.
STOP I JUST PRAYED ABOUT HOW I DONT UNDERSTAND FAITH AND I SEE THIS God is soo good!!
James 4: 6 But He gives a greater grace. Therefore it says, “God is opposed to the proud, but gives grace to the humble.” 7 Submit therefore to God. Resist the devil and he will flee from you. 8 Draw near to God and He will draw near to you. Cleanse your hands, you sinners; and purify your hearts, you double-minded. 9 Be miserable and mourn and weep; let your laughter be turned into mourning and your joy to gloom. 10 Humble yourselves in the presence of the Lord, and He will exalt you.
John 14: 21 He who has My commandments and keeps them is the one who loves Me; and he who loves Me will be loved by My Father, and I will love him and will disclose Myself to him.” 22 Judas (not Iscariot) *said to Him, “Lord, what then has happened that You are going to disclose Yourself to us and not to the world?” 23 Jesus answered and said to him, “If anyone loves Me, he will keep My word; and My Father will love him, and We will come to him and make Our abode with him. 24 He who does not love Me does not keep My words; and the word which you hear is not Mine, but the Father’s who sent Me.
Proverbs 15: 29 The Lord is far from the wicked,
But He hears the prayer of the righteous.
To my brother Imbegger. This video couldn’t have come in in exact moment that I’m going through this morning. I saw a video of a man who is a preacher, but God says I don’t know you for whatever reason it was. And I started to question the salvation again. Just when I cross your video and it totally ! totally.! Just that instant! Renewed my faith in spite of how I feel… This is God‘s confirmation using your ministry and I’m sure there’s hundreds and thousands of us out there that can use this encouragement. Know that your ministry does not go in vain, and you are so anointed in doing this, God bless you and your ministry always!
Thank you, i was just praying about how i feel after my most recent mistake. I was never baptized but i ask for anyones prayers for my journey to baptism.
I've been feeling distant with God lately, and watching your content makes me re-think about my faith. God Bless you man, keep going.

I don't normally comment, but I really needed this, thanks.
Please pray for me
Jesus bring shalom Your peace on bonniemoon and help her rest in You for You are the Only One Who can comfort her the way she needs at this moment. Amen 🙏🏽
im 16, this is life changing for me. Faith changing. I used to struggle if i was a christian or if God was there for me all because I couldn't "feel" him, i never realized what faith was to till watching this. Thank you so much brother, you mean so much to me.
Excellent presentation, as always.
Finding your teachings has been a huge blessing for me, and no doubt, many others.
Please never stop making these videos. I need this. We all need this tbh..
What hit me most was the 4th point. I used to believe that if I didn’t feel the LORDS presence then I’m doing it wrong or he’s rejecting me. Thank you! God bless you
You're already close to God. Just believe.
I’ve seen this video on my home page for a couple of days now- kept ignoring it because I’ve been feeling guilty that I question God’s presence in my life. Finally clicked on it because it seemed like He kept presenting the opportunity and wow. This cleared up so much for me and it’s so good to know that I don’t have to feel that overwhelming happiness I felt in the beginning of my walk all of the time. Your videos truly have helped me strengthen my relationship with God, thank you
I really need prayer.
I really need this video right now.
I'm very much struggling with my faith, and trust in God, and in life in general at the moment.
In fact, I feel very Atheistic currently. As if he doesn't exist or even care at all. I don't have the joy people say that come with being a Christian.
And more so, lately I've had raging hate and resentment toward God and a few select others...all for good reasons.
Yes, I struggle with faith right now and I don't need people telling me the generic answers that I already know. (Read the bible, pray, spend time with God, blah blah blah).
I need God's intervention and real help.
I need real unjudgemental, unconditional loving humans from the hand of God. And prayer.
This note is my cry for help and my prayer.
I'm now going to watch the video. May God transform me to his image and show me love.
Psalm 14:2
The Lord looked down from heaven upon the children of men, to see if there were any that did understand, and seek God.
Jeremiah 29:13
And ye shall seek me, and find me, when ye shall search for me with all your heart.
1 Corinthians 15:1-4
Moreover, brethren, I declare unto you the gospel which I preached unto you,
which also ye have received, and wherein ye stand;
By which also ye are saved, if ye keep in memory what I preached unto you,
unless ye have believed in vain.
For I delivered unto you first of all that which I also received,
how that Christ died for our sins according to the scriptures;
And that he was buried, and that he rose again the third day according to the scriptures
1 John 1:8-10
If we say that we have no sin, we deceive ourselves, and the truth is not in us.
If we confess our sins, he is faithful and just to forgive us our sins,
and to cleanse us from all unrighteousness.
If we say that we have not sinned, we make him a liar, and his word is not in us.
Romans 3:19-26
Now we know that what things soever the law saith, it saith to them who are under the law:
that every mouth may be stopped, and all the world may become guilty before God.
Therefore by the deeds of the law there shall no flesh be justified in his sight:
for by the law is the knowledge of sin.
But now the righteousness of God without the law is manifested,
being witnessed by the law and the prophets;
Even the righteousness of God which is by faith of Jesus Christ unto all
and upon all them that believe: for there is no difference:
For all have sinned, and come short of the glory of God;
Being justified freely by his grace through the redemption that is in Christ Jesus:
Whom God hath set forth to be a propitiation through faith in his blood,
to declare his righteousness for the remission of sins that are past,
through the forbearance of God;
To declare, I say, at this time his righteousness:
that he might be just, and the justifier of him which believeth in Jesus.
Isaiah 1:18
Come now, and let us reason together, saith the Lord:
though your sins be as scarlet, they shall be as white as snow;
though they be red like crimson, they shall be as wool.
Romans 10:9-11
That if thou shalt confess with thy mouth the Lord Jesus,
and shalt believe in thine heart that God hath raised him from the dead,
thou shalt be saved.
For with the heart man believeth unto righteousness;
and with the mouth confession is made unto salvation.
For the scripture saith, Whosoever believeth on him shall not be ashamed.
John 3:15-18
That whosoever believeth in him should not perish, but have eternal life.
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.
For God sent not his Son into the world to condemn the world; but that the world through him might be saved.
He that believeth on him is not condemned: but he that believeth not is condemned already, because he hath not believed in the name of the only begotten Son of God.
John 3:3-7
Jesus answered and said unto him, Verily, verily, I say unto thee,
Except a man be born again, he cannot see the kingdom of God.
Nicodemus saith unto him, How can a man be born when he is old?
can he enter the second time into his mother's womb, and be born?
Jesus answered, Verily, verily, I say unto thee, Except a man be born of water and of the Spirit,
he cannot enter into the kingdom of God.
That which is born of the flesh is flesh; and that which is born of the Spirit is spirit.
Marvel not that I said unto thee, Ye must be born again.
Romans 5:1-2
Therefore being justified by faith, we have peace with God through our Lord Jesus Christ:
By whom also we have access by faith into this grace wherein we stand, and rejoice in hope of the glory of God.
John 14:6
Jesus saith unto him, I am the way, the truth, and the life: no man cometh unto the Father, but by me.
Galatians 1:3-5
Grace be to you and peace from God the Father, and from our Lord Jesus Christ,
Who gave himself for our sins, that he might deliver us from this present evil world, according to the will of God and our Father: To whom be glory for ever and ever. Amen.
Romans 10:17
So then faith cometh by hearing, and hearing by the word of God.
Jeremiah 6:10
To whom shall I speak, and give warning, that they may hear? behold, their ear is uncircumcised, and they cannot hearken: behold, the word of the LORD is unto them a reproach; they have no delight in it.
Hi, I'm from Brazil and I wanted to make a prayer request for Rio Grande do Sul. Several cities are flooded and many have lost their homes due to the rain. I ask for your help for everyone who is suffering because of the rains.
🙏 Sorry for the suffering, natural evil is a tough concept
Truly amazing take on faith and couldn’t agree more. Don’t let your feelings dictate your actions. Let your actions dictate the way you feel.
I’m struggling so much with my faith right now, but I thank you for your videos. No fluff, or judgement or division, just raw Christianity. Your channel is a gift.
Wake up, IMBeggar just posted 🗣️🔥🔥🔥✝️
Im Beggar not many people have made me feel so loved like your messages and your encouragement. Your take on this is so different yet inspiring. So beautiful and heartwarming. From the bottom of my heart I thank you for your service.
God works in such marvelous ways! I've had a relationship with God since 2012 and have only within the last 5 months started learning about Jesus and became a Christian. I've been feeling like a fraud because I don't feel the presence of Jesus like I do with God and have been trying to figure out how to fix that. This morning as soon as I woke up, lying in bed, I realized that I love Jesus anyway, and maybe I will begin to feel His presence in my life like I do with the Father, or maybe not. And if not, that's okay because I still love Him and I know that He is always with me regardless. A few hours after this realization, I find this video and you say exactly the same thing! This is JUST what I needed and I'm so grateful! Thank you, and praise God!
This was exactly what I was needing.😱 God showed me this video and I’m blessed. Thank you so much. You just did God a huge favor. 🙏🙏🙏
Currently going thro an existential crisis .. i needed this .. thank you ..
In deep tribulation, I’ve caved in from myself and others. Day by day, I stutter and suffer. Shelled up in the gutter. I ask for mercy, I’m ashamed and feeling not worthy of his glory. Help me back up, O Lord. For I have fallen deeper than ever before. 🙏
Hey, when one’s at the bottom, the only way is up. You fighting and being here makes you deserve his mercy.
Every time I watch your videos, I start to cry. Because of the truthfulness. Thank you so much 🙏🏼.
Every video speaks. My heart receives.
Please do not stop posting these videos they help me do much with my faith
I was going to do something else with my time probably watching videos being lazy because I’m sick instead the lord put this video in front of me in the first three seconds of this being posted and has now motivated me thank the lord
Probably the best video yet from IMBeggar, in my humble opinion. 🙏🏼 God bless you always ❤
I was just thinking about how I'm struggling with my faith. Thank you and thank God.
Thank the Lord for leading me to this channel!
I do know! Time to walk it! You cant run from Truth! Eat your Daily bread and pick up your cross, for the kingdom of heaven is near! Salvation is today! Thank you God! In Jesus' name - Amen! Thankyouthankyouthankyou
This channel is a pure treasure trove, pls keep up the great work!
Greetings from Germany, God bless
Thanks for this man. Every time I feel down I'll keep looking at this to see what I need to improve in my faith. It's like nighttime when I see this, but the blinding lights hurts.
ive been at a low point in my life nd relationship with God. it feels like the days are just passing by and ive started drifting. ive been getting this video on my feed for a few days, where the second i open RUclips it’s the first thing i see, and i finally understand why God wanted me to see this. wow. im gonna rewatch and take notes. it feels like my heart understands now.
you know its a good day when IMBeggar uploads! I really needed this video and prayed for advice! thank you so much!
God bless you brother! This came at just the right time!
I was struggling with my father these days, questioning "why I'm not feeling it like before" "has the holy spirit left me?" "Did I displeased God so bad that He turned His face away from me?" But this video came at the right moment, thanks! Praised be the Lord!
This really helped me with my faith. You reminded me that faith is not a feeling but a person, Jesus Christ 😊
I deal with ocd terrible illness and i feel like giving up . Like why did i go from being fine and happy no mental health issues to this…. Also ive had ppl say its a demon and that response just annoys me. What did doo to deserve this
Thats interesting, I also have ocd but for me it was practically cure after finding Christ.
I had rituals and if i didnt do them i thought something bad would happen and after i realized the God is real all these things I gave to him my fears and anxieties, try not doing a ritual one time if thats what you have (I usually had going in and out of rooms, washing hands, in and out of shower, doors, etc numbers: 2 3 4 6 8 9 10 12 and yeah) but basically if you just accept that Gods protecting you and you stop doing a certain ritual it slowly stops affecting you, God bless you.
Im sorry this is happening to you you do not deserve it. Pray to Jesus for healing, believe and have faith and he will heal you❤
I am very sorry about your affliction. My one piece of advice is to know that God is always good. In the book of Job, Job was a man of God but still had a LOT of bad stuff happen to him. There are many obstacles set in front of us, but there is not one that is set in front of us that God does not *allow* to be set in front of us. He loves us, He loves YOU, and He will humble us in the most wonderful of ways. I will pray for you. (Also, it is not possible for a believer to be demon possessed, I cannot explain it well, but I wouldn't doubt there's a bunch of videos out there that explain it well.)
So good, brother. Thank you
This channel has been a great blessing to my life, I love how you break this social layer that materializes God and the gospel, step 5 helped me with something that I have been struggling with a lot, It is about doubting faith, without knowing that faith is a firm step. a solid YES, I can do a lot with that. thank you so much.
I needed this I prayed for an Answer to my issues with faith.This helps A LOT.
PRAISE THE LORD!!!!!!
thank you for making this video
Thank you i needed it
i am just thankfull for new video not gonna lie i needed it to my english might be bad but this videos help so much
@@user-zq8ud5cu8pGod bless you brother
I was agnostic for about 10-11 years, and after turning my back on god, going through so much and finding who i am again, and then realizing it was all god. I feel like the faith I give him is half-baked since I turned my back on him. Sure I follow the teachings now, and I pursue the action to make my world and the world around me better through the goodness and kindness I have learned through my journey/battles.
How do I feel like I'm giving god 100% of me again? It just feels fake if I give god everything since I turned my back on him. I cant really put it into words, I hope someone understands.
Hello my dear sibling, have you confessed the things you didnt gave to him 100% at the time you turned from him? Because even if we wanna start changing this, without confessing there will always be this unspoken invisble wall like in an interpersonal relationship.
Is there anything you want to hold on that you know you should let go? For me, perhaps, i can't serve two masters.
I think you have come to realize that forginess is something far more deep reaching than simply forgetting. God's goodness is beyond human full apprehension. The simplest proof of that is that He can forgive. We, on our own turn, are unforgiving. Forgiveness is life bringing and life changing. And that is a miracle. Ask for that miracle and see what happens. Only get yourself ready, for it may be though, very though.
Check out the prodigal son’s parable. Even if you leave God/lose faith, he’s waiting with open arms to welcome.
Oh wow, I was just thinking, I need to get closer to God. And this showed up!!! Thank you Lord Jesus Christ for all your blessings and your love.
Hey buddy! Just wanted to drop you a quick note to say that the video was fantastic - so educational and insightful. It really warmed my heart. Please keep posting more often because we need it. Cheers!
thank you
Thank you for this video
Amen! I truly appreciate God guiding you to make this video♥️ Lord you are amazing 🥰
Words can’t describe how grateful I am for you Imbeggar❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️
You uploaded. I'm so excited. Gotta watch.
I'm just as excited as when I read my Bible, Seriously!!!
But overwhelmed with info dump. Looking forward to more. Grinning.
Shana.
YES MORE IM BEGGAR
Just found this channel today and I absolutely love its content. I've recently been discovering these charcateristics of faith and this video solidified it for me. God bless.
This video helped me more than you will ever understand. Thank you.
HE POSTEDD WOOO
UNDER 1 MINUTE WOOHOO
If we had more Christians making content like this, holy moly, just imagine the impact!
God bless you, IMBeggar!!
Is there any way you can cover a topic like heartbreak? How it affects your relationship with God, and how to overcome it, I’ve been very down recently, not having any aim in life due to finding out my ex is seeing someone new so quick, I would really love a video regarding that topic, just an idea :)
Thank you Lord Jesus for the gift of life and blessings to me and my family $18,500 weekly profit Our lord Jesus have lifted up my Life!!!🙏❤️❤️
Every one of my prayer requests is about to manifest in the Name of Jesus I receive and connect with this message in Jesus' mighty Name Amen🔥🙏
After enduring many struggles, I am now filled with gratitude for owning a new home. My family is happy, and everything is finally falling into place.
Sure, the investment-advisor that guides me is..
MRS KIANA DANIAL
The Lord is going to give me all of my heart desires! All of my accumulated prayer points are coming one by one! Everyone of my prayer requests will come to me! I connect myself to this word 🙏
Thank you so much. I was thinking how my faith is like a rollercoaster lately, and the minute I refreshed youtube, this video was on my recommended. I will be using these steps, God Bless
This is a wholesome video! ❤ I’m praying for everyone in need and I hope all of us will have a beautiful faith! Love y’all
To all of the Christians out there, I just want to say this - I used to struggle also when I was a Christian. I was scared to admit my doubts, to others and even to myself. I was scared I might offend god if I admitted I thought some of the Bible didn’t make sense or sounded weird. Or just didn’t look divine. I struggled because I felt ashamed of sin. I remember that struggle. A few years ago I admitted to myself I didn’t think the Bible was a divine book, but entirely man made. Since then, I haven’t “struggled” with existential questions. I’m intrigued, I wonder in awe, but I do not struggle. I’m inspired. I just want y’all to know I remember the pain of struggling to maintain faith and I don’t want y’all to think you owe the Bible or Christianity anything. If there’s any part that doesn’t make sense, be strong and admit it to yourself and others
We don’t owe the Bible anything, we owe Jesus everything. That is the main difference between a religion and relationship with Jesus. I understand your concerns, and I felt the same way for a long time, seeing the Bible as a rule book and a judgement object. Seeing parts I didn’t understand and not liking them simply because they sounded weird or I didn’t agree. But I went the other way, and I found the lord Jesus and stopped being lukewarm, because i understand why and how the things in the Bible were written after a while of studying it. Christians be strong in your faith, study it, even the parts that don’t make sense at that time, and your faith will grow, because you will grow with Jesus
It sounds like you had alot of fear instilled in you of an early age, but that’s not the god I know. It’s not in God’s nature to be offended he doesn’t get mad if people ask questions in pursuit of the truth.
Yes we struggle with sin and we may stumble but the battle has already been won. It’s not through our actions we get to heaven but only through the grace and mercy gifted to us by Jesus Christ. Anyone telling you otherwise is preaching a works based salvation.
And dont look at the church for the standard but look at Jesus Christ because he is the standard. Man is fallible but Jesus Christ is infallible.
Lastly, early on in my walk with the lord I too had doubts regarding the integrity of his word but through supernatural experiences I realized that the way god speaks in the Bible is the way he speaks now and the way that demons act in the Bible is the way they act now. These 2 revelations is what confirmed it for me that the Bible really is the word of god. Even if I may disagree or come across something I don’t understand I face it head on because through these past 2 years I have come to know it to be true, time and time again.
GLORY!!!!'m favoured, $140K every 3weeks! I can now give back to the locals in my community and also support God's work and the church. God bless America 🇺🇸❤️
But then, what do you do? How do you come about that in that period?
It is the digital market. God has been good to my household
Big thanks to Renee Marie Harrison
She’s a licensed broker in the states 🇺🇸
Her top notch guidance and expertise on digital market changed the game for me
Great timing with this video. Been struggling extra with faith for months. Feeling more confused and disconnected from God than ever. It hurts a lot to descend into doubt. Imbeggar always reinspires.
I balled my eyes out the entire time... Your channel is so underrated, but so is the love of Christ. Amen brother. Love you
Not many will read this but I just wanna share this.
Ive been having my faith go downhill and I got this video recommended 5 times before I clicked because I never really agree to videos that talk about a step by step guide to faith cause I feel like it's a personal experience and it can't be generalised. I ended up clicking because I got it recommended too much and now I'm thankful I watched it, i completely agree with whats being said in this video. you gave me hope to be better, and for everyone reading this I just wanna say God is love.
What a work of great quality. May the Spirit that guided this be praised.
Yes new video. God Bless You Man❤
Exactly what I needed. God bless you all!
this video couldn’t have come into my recommendations any time sooner than now, thank you for posting this, i’ve been struggling with a personal situation, my relationship and bad habits and this morning i prayed and made the decision to get back into my relationship with God
I always look forward to your videos and usually end up in tears. Thank you for your obedience.
Your words hit deep and I love it. God bless who accepts Gods Grace and let go their own will to Him❤
The title is a thought that's been repeating in my head the last week or so
You are one of the only youtubers that help me ! Thanks for everything you are doing ! ( sorry for my english , Im not a native speaker)
Amen I needed this ❤✝️
Thank you.. I just finished watching some of your videos and i loved them and god bless, because you just uploaded which is rare because you upload every 3 months ❤
4 was a big one for me, God bless you.
I needed this. Thank you!
