My testimony: After being an atheist for 8+ years, and "married" to another female, I got the urge one day to say out loud "IF there is an Almighty God that does NOT wish us pain or sorrow, please bring me truth, I wish to know you exist". Then God immediately started bringing me the answers I had been searching 8-11 YEARS for! I witnessed Him take control of my internet and the rest of my reality; He first proved to me that demons exist (I called them "inter-dimensional beings"), then He proved His own existence, which I later found to be Jesus Christ. As soon as I found Jesus at the end of 2020, He IMMEDIATELY took away my transgenderism, bisexuality, depression, daily suicide attempts, self harm, bulimia and anorexia; and He did this all without me asking Him to, because THAT'S how merciful and loving He is! Praise God!
Praise God! Great testimony you're the example of how God wants us to be patient and hold on during our journey and he will bless us ❤
Oh yeah?
What a wonderful testimony to read especially as I’ve been sort of mourning the sinfulness of the world. Praise God for the opening of your heart and your receptivity to Him!!! May He bless you and keep you.
Wow that is awesome ! Praise God and God bless you 😄
Thank you for sharing this beautiful story ✝️❤️🙌
Imma be honest..I’ve been in a pretty bad spot rn, I’m suffering with thought I seemingly can’t get rid of and it’s making me loose my faith slightly…I need prayers.
Praying for you
Praying 🙏 May God give you peace of mind and strengthen your faith! May you experience His presence in a new an mighty way. Jesus loves you so much!!! He will never leave you or forsake you! Thats a promise from Him!
Man this hit home right about now. I've had pretty severe health anxiety for about a month, all of it coming to a head the past week when I got diagnosed with Costochondritis. Seeing the doc again for other things too. Please pray for me to not be so paranoid about my life, and to know that He will care for me eternally.
The thousands of starving children around the world take priority. Sorry 😞
@@mr.c2485we all have problems. But some issues are worse than others but we shouldn't be undermining other people struggles
@@mr.c2485ok
will be praying friend, i’ve experienced costochondritis in the past as well. The Lord knows your pain and will give you peace
I pray that you may be set free. The bible says that we should cast all our cares upon him for he cares for us(1.Peter 5:7).In jesus' name we pray,Amen🙏❤️
I got saved 17 years ago. Since then i was praying to get married. And nothing happened since then. I just got hurt many times. And i just have a hard time trusting God that anything good will happen in my life..
I’ve been having an unsettling sort of anxious feeling the past two days and i believe it has stemmed from the something similar to the topic you covered today. Sort of trying to take control and putting too much focus on the bridge beneath me and feeling like I’m missing something that’s going on around me. When in reality I need to seek up and deeply trust in God. This serves as sweet clarity and I’m grateful to have come across this so divinely as it popped up on my subscriptions tab today. God bless you!
That's where I was at for a few years being anxious with situations that I have replayed in my head due to what I've experienced but along the way I had to experience the situations as almost to change my dark behaviors in my head and my actions and open up to God what was happening in my heart. Walk by the spirit and don't gratify the desires of the flesh Galatians 5:16
Don't let the devil take you down because you're God's child too and what you're going through. Use what you're going through to deflect what the devil is trying to do to make you feel anxious and tell him "I don't have time for this" or "I'm a child of God and you don't have me" something like that. Blessings upon you!
Once saved, always saved amen!
I literally needed this because I realized I've been struggling with trusting in God.
Try going 1 day without making a single decision.
Samex
I am in a season where my faith is being tested and I want to trust God without taking control back…if y’all could pray for me and offer any advise please feel free to comment on this post
If it helps… Remember the scriptures says Obediencee is better than sacrifice.
Whatever He’s asking of you... REMEMBER it's to bring you closer to Him and so we can make it to Heaven 🙏🏾
Thanks man. Going through my first break up with a girl and hearing this was so reinvigorating!!!
Thank you Isaac. I haven't heard one unbiblical statement pass your lips. While being theologically precise, you pour out your heart and life to others. Your theology isn't cold or purely intellectual which is where many fall into. I can tell your personal walk with Jesus and your prayer life strongly affects your content and this is an easy channel to recommend to fellow brothers. Thank you. Although to be fair it's all about Him because without God there is no you as you are now. Praise be to Him!
I've been thinking about myself with my relationship with God. I'm working on areas in my life with being more aware of myself of what I should/shouldn't or can/can't say to other people. I think about the verse of Galatians 5:16 along with loving other people from 1 John 3 more recently. I have to examine my heart more of my motives and how to react to issues whether its sin or how to be encouraging with someone's sin to be there for them and let them know from being accountable. It's just that I don't know where my future holds with a career where would God want me. I love movies but it's something I've been thinking about or a job with Special Education. I don't know. I have let a lot of messes go recently in my life to God as I don't have time for those issues to rehash on and I've moved forward that I've been feeling better about myself this year than last year. My point is don't think of the future that's like in The Terminator or District 9 but everything is going to be okay. Whatever you're thinking about right now that you might be scared of the future or tomorrow or something focus on today because God knows about tomorrow and we don't.
I’m a woman, but I needed to hear this
Thank You 🙏 Jesus
I am Blessed 😇
And Loved 🥰
Amen! meditate in his word
Thank you so much for sharing all of this in such detail! I found this so encouraging & helpful!! May God bless you, your family and ministry🙌🙏
This was so helpful for me right now brother! Thank you and God continue to bless you and your ministry ✝️🕊️
I needed this man! continue pursuing God wholeheartedly
Amen & Amen , y'all pray for me to keep trust in the Lord, Hallelujah!
Amen brother, glad to hear your mom is doing better.
Needed to hear this right now. Thanks Isaac.
Brother. I watched this video. Took notes for myself. Then transferred it to my testimony for my youth group tonight.
I used the bridge concept and it was received very very well. God bless you.
This is what I needed to hear! Every word is what I needed. Thankyou. 🙏🏽
Right on the money I'm going through a transaction stage now, and Jesus is going through all my issues. 😅 Sitting back is new to me .
If anyone is reading could you please pray for me??? I think I have a herniated neck disc and I’m scared cause I’m so young 😢 next week I’ll go to the doctor. And i can also pray for you if you have anything you want me to pray for.
Praying 🙏 May God grant you peace of mind and healing. In Jesus name Amen! 🕊️
Thank you!
This video came at the perfect time for me. I needed this.
God bless
This is a great video and resonates with me. I do have some control issues. However, the idea that "God does everything" (5:10) is that it makes it sound like we sit back and do nothing while God does everything. I know there is a balance in this. I believe he requires things of us but my fear has been that I won't know my part or do it right and because of that He won't do His part.
Proverbs 3:5-6
Thanks Isaac. I needed to hear this. Praise and glory to our Lord Jesus Christ.
God plan is always leading us to our full potential.
just got reminded of a great movie because you look like " Donnie Darko " but with a beard, God is good.
I used to like that movie but my advice is from experience is examine why am I watching this, is this good for my soul etc.
Thank you for sharing this, Isaac! I definitely need to keep this idea in mind as I live out my life for God.
God bless you all we are brothers in Christ.
This really spoke to me
I trust in God, my savioooor, the one, who will never fail
You don't know how much I needed to hear that. Thank you!
I am 25, and I am terrified of the future.
This was right on time
Same. We all need that reminder to remain secure in God.
Thank you....thank you.....
I say this a lot, but...I needed this today. 😊
Just living day-to-day accustomed to the mundane, the random and the absurd…it’s hard to imagine God is present in all of that especially knowing God is extraordinary, even if you are a Christian you must admit trying to see past that is very difficult. Sometimes, it really does take a miracle to push someone to take that extra step to trust in God.
When I was first saved at the age of 16 I was completely enveloped in God. I trusted him in everything. Fast forward to the age of 21, my fiance cheated on me. I prayed every night for this girl and the marriage we were planning. I prayed for safety and that our relationship could prosper to glorify Him. When she cheated on me my world stopped spinning. My life was so dark. I didn't blame God but I accepted that God's plan was not my own. I feared God so deeply. The only thing that pulled me out of that depression was prayer but that fear has really scarred me. I am now married to a godly woman and every week a shed a tear in fear of the thought that God could take her from me at any moment. As much as I want to tell an awesome redemption story, my relationship with God has never been the same since that time of my life.
The harsh reality of life hits us so that we become able to live it regardless of blessings. I think you've grown on that front. Do you think you could cope with it again? Perhaps if you fully accept the possibility that it could happen and trust and love God regardless, maybe thats what he wants and you'l find that thats all he ever wanted. For you to acknowledge that HE is all you need. Like when abraham was about to sacrifice his own son, God only wanted that he WOULD have, but he blessed by allowing him to keep him. Maybe if in your heart you wouldnt forgive God if the same thing happens over again, then it might actually happen. Because God wants you to give it up to him, in your heart.
amen
This is where stoicism falls short- and where Christianity succeeds. It is not self-centered, man/human centered, like the philosophy.
Amen so true ❤🙏 we need to trust in God 🙏
You look like John from The Chosen
Thank you, brother, thank you.
You make it sound so, so easy. Been trying to get here for years. Need help
Amen To That One
Once again, another good video keep going.
Now are you saying that when family members are sick God uses that sickness to help you or are you saying that in the midst of the sickness God will help you through it?
❤❤
Hey so for a long time I wanted to go abroad and study there and settle there in terms of career and my marriage and I am still studying in my home country and I am upset about it this year a pastor propheicied over me saying God will send me to a nation which I never thought now as per my desire how can I ask God to sent me to s certain country for this so that I'll go only there someone please pray for me
You know for years of my Christian walk I never trusted God for anything and I mean literally nothing I could never trust him
You can still trust God today! I'm not sure where you're at in life and what has happened but God still loves you and everyone the same. He created fearfully and wonderfully made. You can only make life happen if you choose to and choose to believe and trust. I wanted to quit my job I've been at for almost 2 years due to a situation that happened but I did it for the wrong reason by trying a different job and I believe God placed me at my job for a reason. If you have to, go outside, look at creation of what God has created of the trees, clouds, animals etc. But remember God is always by our side. If you feel like God left you, maybe examine your heart a bit and ponder on that. Blessings!
You can trust him to find your car keys 🔑. Lol!
@@isaiahvoss
So….Muhammad?
what bible do you have?
What do you need to trust God for?
what Christianity branch should I choose?
Don't choose a branch Just live according to the bible
I have experienced the presence of God in the Eucharist during adoration. The Catholic Church teaches that the trans-substantiation during mass turns the bread into the body of Christ. The fathers of the Catholic Church are the ones who assembled the Bible. Follow the Bible and you will find the church
@@Xlevious
Reading the Bible is WHY there are 2000 branches. DA!
Jesus… that’s all. Follow Jesus and worry less about denominations…
@@MichaelBrianInc
Which Jesus? There are many to choose from..
If God gives a child terminal cancer, God is good for testing and strengthening the faith of the child's family as he calls his child home early.
If a child is healthy, God did that too.
That's how it works. Label everything as good and from God. Health is good. Disease is good. Losing everything is good. Prosperity is good. Spending years in the gutter is good because it teaches a lesson. Staying out of the gutter is good because God provides.
In the coin flip game it's heads God wins, tails we lose.
If u never experience bad how would you know Good, if you never experienced unholiness how would you know holiness? Christ has made it so whatever the coin lands on we can win and be saved from the gutter, no matter the sufferings in life either fair or unfair God will turn it into something Good, God responds to evil with love and righteousness so no matter what happens we can put our faith in God that Justice, righteousness and love wins in the end and we get to choice what side we want to be on, no works required just faith
@@brandonlewis907 how did God know what evil was before their was creation? He had never experienced it. Evil did not exist, yet God knew he didn't like it.
Your argument is doggy doo doo. If I child in a tropical climate steps on a burning piece of charcoal he or she instantly knows what hot is even if they never experienced cold before.
We have no need of a God to know good from evil.
@@brandonlewis907 I reject Hell with every fiber of my being. I refuse to go to Hell or be sent to Hell. What is my fate?
@@skippy675 Hell is a place separate from God and his presence so if u reject God who is in heaven then God won’t force you into his presence for eternity instead you will be place in hell where u will be separate from God, now we don’t know much about hell but how it’s described in the bible one description of it is it being tormenting which makes sense as God is the rock never changing the alpha and omega never changes, the infinite being one who’s love stays the same forever he lacks in nothing therefore needs nothing but desires to share out of love (kinda like when a husband and a wife decides to have a family because of love so they can share the love despite the suffering) anyway when you are cut off from that source your moral compass will change from whatever you want so would love change to whatever you want you will no longer look at the Rock or seek shelter in the lord stuff like right or wrong becomes chaotic and peace won’t be possible because you have been cut off from it no light because you have rejected it nor truth or a path to go but a sinners path that is wide and open that leads to death no life because you have rejected it for death, You can see these things even in this life within people there souls are in pain yet God reaches out to us and faith in God saves us when a farmer looses a sheep he leaves the 99 to find the missing one, you and many others are lost and the lord is calling your name waiting on you to come running back but if you reject him then that’s up to you and God loves you to much to force you into his presence his Love was shown to you on the cross so never doubt it, when you have a moral objection to what God does that’s fine but remember we are sinners no where near holy that’s why Christ died for our sins and with his blood we are made righteous, a sinner and a sinner can argue all day on what’s right and wrong and get no where because it’s objective to the person but when a Holy being says what is right or wrong then surely even you can accept his verdict so if God deems us worthy of Hell who are we sinners dirty and evil in the eyes of the holy one who’s clean and righteous to disagree but if the Holy one says he loves you and forgives you of all your sins and takes on a punishment so you can be spared of urs why shouldn’t we accept it? with joy and praise I mean he did it out of love and he didn’t have to in return he asks that you have faith in him despite the suffering and death of this fallen world put your faith in the Lord Jesus that he will save you and that your sins are washed away when he gave his body and blood for you his witness the Holy spirit is here to guide you have faith and you will be okay
@@brandonlewis907 God is omnipresent, meaning everywhere. Separation from God is not possible. God is with everyone in Hell just as much as Heaven. Try again. Think it through instead of just regurgitating what you were told.
You seem very kind and gracious. My heart breaks for you and everyone else that follows religion. I was there once too. We are/were living out a fairytale. I wanted there to be a loving god but it's so unlikely and it definitely isn't Yahweh or Shiva or Buddha or Zeus or Dionysus, etc. Have you researched the origins of the Judeo Christian god? He was a minor war god with a wife and siblings and a father of his own. He was part of polytheism. The transition from polytheism to monotheism is quite interesting. There are countless documentaries and books you can read. The Israelites chose to worship Yahweh and other groups chose other gods. Leaving Yahweh's wife out is cold. Anything to leave women out or put them down. Christianity hijacked Judaism and changed it into something that wasn't true. Jesus did not fulfill the prophesies. The original Hebrew will tell you that. We can debate all day on whether Yahweh or any god is good but knowing if he or she or they is real is the meat and potatoes of the topic. Evolution is real. There are many issues with the validity of the Bible and other religious texts. We do not know if there is no god. The ones we have heard of make no logical sense. I read and studied the Bible and went to various churches and prayed and believed in Jesus with all my heart but he wasn't there, because he isn't real. We can still be happy and live well without a supernatural being running the show. Please don't let your faith cloud your reasoning. Believe what you want but think about it. It's not demonic to think. I found your channel when I still believed. Now it's so different. I wish you well and hope this doesn't come off mean. ❤
I pray you will see the light brother. You are lost my friend.
@@TheHoppinhousner Sister. ❤️ I know Christians aren't willing to dive into this. Research, an open mind, studying both sides, etc is needed and I've been on both side of the fence. I know all the apologetics. Many religious people will not even take a moment to consider if something is truly valid and logical and factual. I'm not going to debate people as we would be here for 7 years. 😂
*The Enuma Elish would later be the inspiration for the Hebrew scribes who created the text now known as the biblical Book of Genesis.* Prior to the 19th century CE, the Bible was considered the oldest book in the world and its narratives were thought to be completely original. In the mid-19th century CE, however, European museums, as well as academic and religious institutions, sponsored excavations in Mesopotamia to find physical evidence for historical corroboration of the stories in the Bible. ***These excavations found quite the opposite, however, in that, once cuneiform was translated, it was understood that a number of biblical narratives were Mesopotamian in origin.***
*Famous stories such as the Fall of Man and the Great Flood were originally conceived and written down in Sumer,* translated and modified later in Babylon, and reworked by the Assyrians ***before they were used by the Hebrew scribes for the versions which appear in the Bible.***
***In revising the Mesopotamian creation story for their own ends, the Hebrew scribes tightened the narrative and the focus but retained the concept of the all-powerful deity who brings order from chaos.*** Marduk, in the Enuma Elish, establishes the recognizable order of the world - *just as God does in the Genesis tale* - and human beings are expected to recognize this great gift and honor the deity through service.

From a Biblical scholar:
"Many stories in the ancient world have their origins in other stories and were borrowed and modified from other or earlier peoples. *For instance, many of the stories now preserved in the Bible are* ***modified*** *versions of stories that existed in the cultures and traditions of Israel’s* ***older*** *contemporaries.* Stories about the creation of the universe, a cataclysmic universal flood, digging wells as land markers, the naming of important cultic sites, gods giving laws to their people, and even stories about gods decreeing the possession of land to their people were all part of the cultural and literary matrix of the ancient Near East. *Biblical scribes freely* ***adopted and modified*** *these stories as a means to express their own identity, origins, and customs."*

😂
Atheist here. What on earth are you saying?
You sound as if you have as many problems as does the average atheist. And you sound as if you have as many successes as the average atheist.
So I reckon you need to tone down some of your hyperbolic language and be more reasonable and grounded in how you talk about your faith. Stop raising unrealistic expectations in your followers by hollow promises.
For example, years ago weren't you preaching - "Happy is the man who trusts the Lord" - and telling your viewers just how wonderful life was thanks to the fact that you trusted God?
Yet here you are, now saying - "This is changing my life, truly, and I need to share it with you because ... it's going to change your life too. For so long, I've let my emotions get captivated by what's going on in my life ...". So, if my question is correct, what was happening years ago if your wonderful life, thanks to trusting in God, was really more dismal than you were pretending?
When do you fellows actually tell the truth? I think be realistic and be grounded in your claims. That way you will actually help people as opposed to offering hollow and unrealistic promises.
As humans we go through ups and downs, good moments and bad moments in our lives. What we have is faith in God in all scenarios.
Even when it seems all is lost, we can feel better knowing that all things work out for good and in the end all will be solved.
Both Atheism and Christianity have to deal with this fallen world, and we think the only one who can help is Jesus Christ.
I hope this helped answer your questions 👍
@@CristOportunidad
//I hope this helped answer your questions 👍//
Not really.
You seem to be telling me that for atheists and theists (Christians in this case), life has its ups and downs, and life has its problems, but we all have to find ways of navigating life. Christians find it by trusting in Jesus.
But that was not my point.
DD seemed to be saying that he'd *finally* found the way to navigate life after so much disappointment and let down, by trusting in God.
But wasn't he saying years ago that he already had the way to navigate life, by trusting in God?
@@rolandwatts3218 this seems like a question only he can answer because i don't know what his relationship with God is or has been like. I get what you are saying, though.
Its probably something that he knew helped but failed to fully apply until know. But he doesn't really say so im just speculating
@@CristOportunidad
You are correct. Really only DD can answer it.
@@rolandwatts3218 I believe there is a honeymoon phase when finding God. Could be that. Also the more we walk with him the more he'l train us which means the harder the trials. If anyone ever sais that God made their life sunshine and rainbows then dont believe them. God will put us through struggles but unlike atheists we grow closer to him in them
Nice way to make cash...
this is sad
Why?
Learning....just trust the invisible man in the sky.
