Rich Wilkerson Jr. - Single and Secure
Вставка
- Опубліковано 30 чер 2019
- You’ve got your list of nonnegotiables down pat. You know exactly what you want in a significant other. What’s not obvious is you're probably getting lost in a crowd of culture urging you to get into a relationship so you can finally live your best life.
Pastor Rich Wilkerson Jr. shares the talk “Single and Secure” to encourage singles to put effort toward personal development. He reminds us that it first takes healthy individuals to form healthy relationships.
The prospect of getting into a relationship can shift our focus from the blessings right in front of us. Yet the benefits of being single can open up to us if we're willing to lean in. Being single isn't a period God is waiting for us to get through. He wants us growing in this season as much as in any other.
Don’t put life on hold wasting energy waiting on that perfect relationship to come by. Show up today by pursuing the dynamic, fruitful life God wills for you. Time alone is a good opportunity to get your relationship with Jesus on solid ground. Because no matter what the people say, it’s not a spouse that brings security, it’s a Savior that does.
“A spouse doesn’t produce security, a savior does”.

AMEN!
SO GOOD 👏🏼
Period!!!😍
Amen I am secure in Jesus Christ.
"When you quit prioritizing falling in love, falling in love will prioritize you." PREACH! 🙌🏽
Yet... HOW DO. I . DO. THAT??! I betcha' he never gives examples of how
tinydreamer88 this hit me hard.
I don't get it
@@LL-hf7kv when you quit prioritizing falling in love (focusing and being desperate on the idea of being in love), falling in love will prioritize you (you will attract better people and be more in tuned in God's will or presence) since you've worked on yourself and your relationship with God as what Ruth did.
@@tinydreamerrr thanks for the explanation. It's like being content urself
“How are they going to find you if you just look like everyone else?”

the best line! We are to be imitators of Christ...God stood out & He was bold & He made a statement
Never heard of this church, never heard of this pastor but it came up on my recommendations, I truly believe it was God ordained. Just broke up with my bf who I thought was the " one", but he wasn't. God has the best one for me, I know God needs me to be alone in this season, He is proving to me time after time just how much He loves me. I am falling in love with Him deeper and deeper, He is my source, He is my provider He is my husband, He is EVERYTHING to me. Singleness is an awesome place to be at, when you know you have your Heavenly Father with you by your side. I don't want to look like someone else, I want to stand out and as Gods children, we stand out above everyone! Thank you Father for leading me to this wonderful sermon, you lead me where I needed to be and that was to hear this message ❤
Yvonne Tweed we will be praying for you. Much ❤️
yes!! exactly!! God’s going to use you let him!! i’ll be praying for you and your journey❤️
Amen!! To God be the glory. Well said and God bless you in this season! The Lord has great things in store for you, just keep putting Him first and loving Him as you already do
Yvonne Tweed I’m so thankful that you wrote this! I’m in the same season. God bless you! I’m so encouraged!
@@user-jy7yn1ro8j yes I am. Fornication was one of my biggest downfalls but thank God for his mercy and grace. He is always there to pick me back up no matter how many times I think I fail Him.
this guy snatched every edge i've ever had
Haha
Lmbo!!!
hahahaha
Nikki Grace yesss 😂😂
“It is better to be hungry in the will of God, than to be fed outside the will of God” 😫 if you don’t preach to my entire life!!! Okay I’m done commenting now lol
LISTEEEEEN!!!🗣️👏🏾👏🏾👏🏾
"Don't forsake your convictions for convenience"
SERMON NOTES
The grass is greener simply where you water it
Be secure in this season
1)Be the minority coz the majority is overrated
2) Bitterness is ugly but faithfulness is attractive
3)When you turn up, things turn out
When you quit prioritizing falling in love, falling In love will prioritize you!!
Jesus the GREATEST Kinsman Redeemer!!!
*WHAT A WORD*
Be the minority because the majority is overrated.
Recognize that the grass is not greener on the other side, the grass is simply green where you choose to water the grass.
dang
I love this..added in my notes. ❤️
"a spouse doesn't produce security, but a SAVIOR does... " and no person can fill the role meant for god!!
Is that really the issue or question, however? Why is it automatically assumed that a person who desires marriage and who is tired of the pain of prolonged singleness somehow has their spiritual priorities backwards? No one ever says that to a young pastor seeking a spouse but rather only to older singles who are struggling with the pain of prolonged singleness. Quite to the contrary, I have heard many advise young pastors and young Christians to seek out a God-blessed and God-ordained marriage. I have even heard pastors say how much they "hated" being single and are so joyful and thankful that the Lord brought them a spouse. Are such people trying to "fill with a spouse" the role meant for God? Somehow I think that charge would never be levied at such people. Yet if a person who has been struggling with unwanted, prolonged singleness for years dares give voice to their pain, loneliness, lack of affectionate intimacy, and maddeningly never-ending sexual frustrations, suddenly they are "idolizing a spouse over God?" Hypocritical sophistry at its most inane.
All fact👏🏾

Am trying sis... Am trying😩😩😩
"If you have to convince yourself BEFORE marriage, you're going to have to brainwash & lie to yourself after marriage." This.. ugh. yes. I learned from my mistake. Praise God!
Yes!! I love this
YOOOOOO HE CAME FOR EVERYONE’S NECK, MINE INCLUDED😭 love this message, I’m going into college single and I‘ve always dreamed of meeting “The One” there. Now, I’m not even worried! I’m just gonna live for Jesus and let my man come to me at the right time!!!
I agree. I'm 25 and im going back to college. I still hope and pray to meet the love of my life in college. But im not stressing about it.
I just started college a few weeks ago and I’m single, I’m not going to lie it’s a struggle but I’m leaning on the Lord.
Amen!!!
yes!
College is amazing! Don't worry about finding "the one" girl! What you need to focus on is your studies and having a great time with your friends! The guy God has for you, will come unexpectedly and in God's right timing. 💖 Especially since today is Valentine's day, spoil yourself! You don't need a guy to spoil yourself!!!
I prayed when I was 16 that God would take away my want of a man, to focus on Christ. He did take the urge away. Do I wanna be married? Of course one day!!! That’s all up to God!! Right now I’m 22, it’s me & Jesus and I’m secure in that!!!!❤️ Thank you Jesus for being ALIVE and my best friend!
Wow😲
Maybe God has given you the gift of singleness? I think what you shared is wonderful! God is the only hope anyone has for security, significance, and acceptance! No spouse can give you these things.
“Commit to Gods way and he will make a way out of no way” 🙌🏾
Come in now... Praze God. This encourages me to continue waiting for my Saviour to bless me w who HE has for me. I been walking out abstinence for years and I'm fine and have good sense lol......but I've learned to value myself and God's word and because of that I have a freedom and joy that only God can supply. Everyone I'm in contact w is either married, in a relationship and I'm like what's up w my Boaz Lord? But I shall continue to establish my life and pursue purpose until that part of my life changes...😉
“Some of you women of God are giving away for free what one man should get the opportunity to work for” 🙌🏽🙌🏽🙌🏽🙌🏽 God I hear you
Love that part 😍
Huh do you wanna get payed?
Should you be allowed to marry if you are not a Virgin then?
"let go because you're not defined by your mistakes,your habits and your decisions,rather YOU ARE A CHILD OF GOD!!
Amen!
The only way to end bitterness in your heart is to take responsibility through forgiveness.
You ask for God's heart on the matter and call them forgiven in Jesus' mighty name.
Wow, i never read this scripture thinking about Naomi’s role and the difference between her perspective and Ruth’s perspective. You just provided another level of understanding of God’s word and love for us. Thank you!
In the bible it says some are meant to be single and some are meant to be married. I'm so glad that I know I'm meant to be single with no kids for the rest of my life and a virgin for the rest of my life. I have never wanted that or desired that and I know this is the path that God has for me. A more peaceful life where u can focus on God fully. It's so hard to do that with marriage and kids.
I’m with you, buddy! Me too
I agreeeeee
Amen
Your peace and clarity of purpose is such a blessing!
😂🙏 high five for that! Amen!
You better preach!!
The grass is simply greener where you choose to water it.
Called to be counter-culture🙌🏽
This truth can be applied to every season of life, not just in singleness. Preach it!
When you quite prioritising falling in love, falling in love will find you 😩👏🏾
So this was my first message from you (it was in my recommended,no coincidence there).And this was speaking to me so hard.I became single 4 months ago,after 5 years...
2 months ago I started falling even deeper and deeper in love with myself and God.I truly believe this break up was needed for me to feel secure,confident and unstoppable on my walk with God and without a relationship.Thank you for this!!!
tulip power. ME TOO GIRL. I couldn’t be more thankful for my breakup. Led me to self love and god. LIFE IS GREAT
gabriela mendoza yessss!love that for us!Glad that God is working in your life as well💕
Same here girls!!!
Amen!!!! We have to know who we are in Christ & our relationship has to be deeply rooted in Christ in order for it to last!! The right one will enhance your relationship with the Lord, the wrong one will pull you away from Him
Wow, this is the first sermon I have heard from this preacher. God spoke directly to my heart through him. I teared up listening to this message. I really needed to hear this.
Marce Risa me too oh my gosh!!
Me too I had seen it for days but not listened to it for some reason. It's an amazing message
God has his own way of encouraging me when I feel like giving up..
Thank you Lord
"Newsflash, the crowd is stupid!" Best line 🤣🤣 but seriously this was another great message.
Thank you Vous Church for the unapologetic gospel. Singles may be the minority, but we're unique in God's eyes.
Still looking for my future wife! 💕 Praying hard. Can’t wait!
Bryce Harvey she would come in time, Just keep focussing on yourself.
Life with D&T Thank you! 💕
Bryce Harvey your welcome much ❤️
God's timing is the best
Bryce Harvey text me 😉
I’m so thankful I came across this sermon in my season of singleness! 👏🏼💯❤️ I’m not single and stuck, I’m single and focused on building my relationship with God first and foremost. I’m single and secured. I’m single and saved. I’m okay with waiting on a godly husband! 🙌🏼🙌🏼
I love this speaker, people who preach should be this hyped. we are speaking to the dead souls, Sundays are wake up calls to the de-churched, the word of God is Good News, Good news is spoken loud and full of life. Thank you Pastor Rich Wilkerson Jr.
“I just wanna get married so bad pastor.”
Pastor says,”Why?”
Person: “ Cause all my friends are married.”
I died 🤣🤣🤣
“You just look like every other girl in Miami!” PREACH PREACHA 🙌🙌
Is it possible to find girls in Miami that have been saving themselves for marriage? Must be difficult being a Christian in Babylon Beach
M Find a girl at Vous Church lol
@@austinrose3421 Can find those good looking Miami top tier Miami girls in there? (but without the babylon party lifestyle)
Define who you are, what your values are, what your standards are. When you conquer the urge you get stronger the urges get weaker. Be counter culture
Determined to choose right over easy=integrity, righteousness
God’s best
💕
YES! I so agree. Detaching from the "culture" and looking inward --- yoga & meditation has been a tool to help me do this
You summed up some of the best points. You go girl!
This is the best message I have ever heard of being single! Granted, my last date was Oct 2005, but still! Just to hear that being single is just as amazing as being married is definitely an AMEN❣️
"It's much better to be hungry in the will of God than to be well fed outside of His will."
I read comments of 22-23 year old wanting to get married, at that age I wasn't thinking of getting married at 28 I didn't think I was mature enough..
#Blessed
Life is happening. . The question is are YOU happening??
Woah!!!! That'll preach
'bitterness is ugly, but faithfullness is always attractive' i felt that.
This message was so honest, helpful, filled with love, knowledge, etc. I am totally grateful and I'm encouraged to keep going on my path. I love being single and the freedom it provides. I have been stagnant on my path and this just gave me the push I need. Grateful to God for this message. Thank you!!
Same!!
This is my first sermon I’m listening to from Pastor Rich! This sermon blessed me. I must learn to be single & secure in Christ before God brings my future husband!
I am so glad the Lord ordered my footsteps to this video. A timely word! No sugar coated modern preaching here. God bless you.
Live like you're loved, so the crowd wants what you've got 💖
When God is pushing you somewhere to watch amazing video single and secure✌✌
I am 42 & not yet married. Right now I don't have the desire to be married and I may never marry. But, I know that Christ (God) will be more than enough.
The part with Naomi and how she didn’t want Ruth / Orpah to go with her because of shame, shoook me. I never heard this story preached like that before!!! What a Word. #REVELATION
Wow!! 👏🏼👏🏼 Become a Woman of Worth!
One of the best sermons on relationships I've ever heard. They didn't even have to use this title. Be faithful in the season you are in. Be faithful in the nuances. God always shows up in our lives looking like seeds. =-)
This sermon is so bomb!!!! 🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥
from the beginning till the end of the sermon, my spirit was captivated and convicted by the Holy Spirit himself. Thank you Pastor Rich for delivering this word. And thank you for closing the message with the BESTEST of news, the Good News of Jesus and the hope we have in Him!
praying blessings for you, your family, and every one that serves in VOUS Church! grace & peace.
So glad you chose this video to upload, I was there last night, and was literally unable to process everything afterwards. It was amazing! Now I get to study the message of Ruth all over again (^o^)丿 Thank you Vous Church!
41 year old man, still single and content with being single and never married. This is an awesome message, and if God wanted me to talk about this subject, I'd believe that He can give the Grace to. You can find your worth, security, singleness in Jesus. Along with it's battles, you can be apart of that minority in a society that expects marriage.
Because younger single man and single woman, I'm there myself.
Jesus also made a reference to those who were Eunuchs , reserved for the Kingdom of God in Matt 19:12.
There is no condemnation for those who want to be single married. Mark my words !
Amazing words! "Find the gold in every season you're in".
Brilliant...this is a most insightful, authentic and powerful message for singles ...absolute truth...thank you...
I have been through so many things in the last three years and i was fighting a pull to want to give up
I was up and down and the point is i was praying and asking God what I should listen to this morning and He inspired me to stop here...
Thank you for being faithful
Thank yoy for sharing
God bless you and your family and ministry abundantly in Jesus Christ mighty name!
I am so so glad you didn't give up. Praise God!
The other extreme is when you get to enjoy how sweet it is to be single that you just want to be by yourself, no1 can be good enough for u. I been there
This guy is on fire!!! 👏👏👏👏 amazing !!!
SUCH A BLESSING! 😭 it's funny how my life is perfectly mirrored by Pastor Rich's testimony. it's only a confirmation that i made the right choice to trust God with my relationships at 19.
Haha, I'm 22 in the same boat
Am 25 and still learning to trust him with mine am tired of doing it my own way
Beautiful message. Yes, single and secure because Jesus is with me.
“The grass is not green on the other side! It is simply green where you choose to water the grass!”🙌🏾
Wow don’t know how this came on my recommendations but it’s 1:40am in the morning and I couldn’t sleep and this blessed my life and God also convicted me on what he said about love being a responsibility and sacrifices and this also applies to our love and relationship to God I.e. sometimes you have to sacrifice time to get up earlier to spend time with him and responsibility as far as it’s our responsibility to put him first in our lives as God is a God of free will and will not force us to love him and wants people that genuinely love him.
Thank you for this message , God bless you and your ministry!
Schools out there ain't taught anyone how to live a Secure life! Come to Jesus and He'll teach you how to face everything in this life with peace!!! Love the preaching!
Woooow from Uganda ( East Africa ) this lockdown gat me searching about singleness and boom I got to this sermon. Thanks Ps Rich W. Being single is awesome.

Hello from Cambridge:) UK, I want to tell you that your video, changed my vision, how to live life as a single mum. I love listening, you and your wife, I also have to admit I never been in Christian religion, but I always had love for God, but I didn't follow any religion until finally found peace in my life, I start praying and tomorrow I going to church second time in my life. Thanks for your words they changed my life 🙏🙏🙏
I was not raised on any religion, but I believe in God and have been opening myself up to Christianity. I find that the values spoken of in this video are great, I loved this speaker.
Man this was incredible!!!! Jesus must be our loved one before anyone else
I have had an amazing life so far, and I have deliberately chosen to stay single single for almost 6 years now and I'm not gonna lie, it's been the best years of my life so far. I'm not going to stay singe forever. In fact I initially just decided to take a break from dating and I planned on about 3 to 6 months and the more time that passed, the happier I have become. I have used this time to better myself and change the things that needed to be changed so that when God does bring my forever girl into my life, I'll be ready as can be.
Bitterness is ugly! Faithfulness is always attractive🚣♀️
He's so right about what are you going to do after college question. I'm like let me live my life. I really want to tell these people to leave me alone. I know most of them care, but it can be overbearing.
Edit: I do feel like the church does put pressure on people to be married. I have family members ask me about guys at college and I'm like I'm happily single.
12:52 "But how are they gonna find you if you just look like everyone else?" A big word y'all!💥🙌🏾
I love how he ends his sermon. It points towards Jesus, the love of our lives🙌🏻💓
Wow! Another Mizo passing through 👋💜
Literally got chills
I feel blessed that I found this preaching ❤️
Wawo so beautiful, I saw you on zone X of NCC, I was blessed and decided to search more of your sermons, thanks alot, wawo I'm very blessed as a youth.
Yoooooooooo. Why was he reading me to filth tho 😱😂😂😂. A WORD.
sometimes, you just need that reassurance. what a good message🙌🏾
Amen...I needed to hear this, everything about my future is figured out.
Wow! The grass is not greener on the other side. The grass is green where you choose to water the grace.
It's really spoken well to me in my singleness.
I needed this. God's so good
It was really gripping. So many points resonated. I love that the sermons are available on UA-cam if you can not physically attend the church. It provides the Community from the taping
So Super Thankful for this Preach. I want Singleness to be As Celebrated as Engagements and Weddings Are!!! Well Done Rich, You did Good!
I believe God bought me here to watch this sermon. I was watching other which talks about God will tell you give you some signs that he's not the one. First I saw some comments mentioned someone name ruth monroe at that moment reminded me Ruth in the bible. And then I watch another video which someone talks about the chapter Ruth but I only watched half of the video and I saw this one and which the title got my attention so I click and watch...but then he talks about the chapter Ruth again! But I just wanted to say. Is easy for people who has a beautiful and godly relationship to say singleness is fine (I'm sorry I think I'm a bit bitterness). But I've never find someone who truly loves me and cares about me, they just use me and hurt me. Even now the one I have(I dont even feel that I have him actually) I thought he love me becoz he is a Christian and his parents are Christian too. But then he just using me...I want to let go I want to move on. I do like being single when I'm a single. But once you in a relationship is so hard to leave. My mind know so well that I have to leave him I even know God already give me many signs to tell me that he is not the one. But my heart won't listen to me...the heartache is so real and so pain
Sweetheart you need to let go. When you don't let go soon you will be more hurt by the time you decide to. You just need to trust God about it.
@@freedtoservewithjanette2458 oh my dear Lord. Do you know how long I've been struggling with letting him go for? 2 years. Since the day I found out he just using me to solve his loneliness while he was waiting for his ex-wife to come back (she cheated on him and not long agohe finally admitted that he doesn't know what he want and didnt know what God want him to do. Also said he never thought that he will in love with me etc). I tried to broke up with him many times. And I knew that God already gives me many signs to tell me he's not the one. But I lied to myself and always jump back to him...I really really wanted to end this relationship but I'm so weak. I pray and I pray that God can help me to end this relationship. Then your reply pops up. Thank you so much for your reply and thank God for answered my prayers. God bless you and your family
Thoroughly enjoyed watching this.
This message knocked my lashes off!!!!
You are on point I love this sermon. It makes me feel better about one of my favorite sayings which is, ” I don’t care if everybody is doing it ( or accepts it/ likes it) it doesn’t make it right , it makes them stupid!”
This sermon was EVERYTHING!
I really loved this entire sermon. For sur , I will need to watch it again. So worthy!
Wow the word of God really is sharper than a double edge sword ❤️🙏🏼 thank you for this beautiful message!
Bitterness is ugly...FACTS!!!
so much wisdom :) Praise God for your life! Wear the armor for the battle is still on! From the Philippines with love!
Thank you God for this preaching. I love you Jesus
I'm gonna have to watch this everyday! So it can sink in. Over and over again. Thank you! Subscribed.
You really meant a good point,The whole thing turned out to good because of Ruth's Faithfulness to God the Most High.
45 minutes of shade 😂
