    Hey Alex, I’m a teen who is seeking God daily and living for him. Every time i listen to your preaching, i get a new perspective on things and your messages help keep me on the right path with God. The world tries lure you into its lies and deceptions but only Jesus can help us and truly lead us to on the best path of life. Prayers for you and your family!

      I totally agree. It’s just so hard when I am in a third world country and they’re starving. I am a medical missionary and I see things nobody should see. Struggling with Him not providing what in first world countries is provided. Matthew 6, is not universal.

    ‭‭1 Corinthians‬ ‭9:13‭-‬14‬ ‭ERV‬‬
    [13] Surely you know that those who work at the Temple get their food from the Temple. And those who serve at the altar get part of what is offered at the altar. [14] It is the same with those who have the work of telling the Good News. The Lord has commanded that those who tell the Good News should get their living from this work.

    Thank you Alex for sharing... as i was listening to you, the words in 1 Tess 5:16-18 came to my mind..."Be joyful ALWAYS, pray CONTINUALLY, give thanks in ALL circumstances, FOR THIS IS GOD'S WILL FOR YOU IN CHRIST JESUS." It has been a nudge for me to stop and meditate in these words, bearing in mind that God is faithful, He is the same, yesterday, today and always ❤
    May God bless us and keep us safe in the hollow of HIS loving hands.❤

    This has truly blessed, convicted, and warned me. The LORD has been telling me for months to stop worrying about money, and yet at the same time, I'm banging my head against a brick wall with online courses, and condemning myself to no end for not having enough money to pay my bills.
    I am fearful that I would make nothing of my life, destitute, in the hands of strangers that will not have my best interests at heart.

    Thank you for being so open about your head and heart space. I can resonate with this so deeply, and with each 'money' pursuit comes this overwhelming exhaustion, fear and confusion - just so much resistance from my end to be fully present and accepting of my current reality.

    I am LITERALLY only 5 mins and 36 sec through and this it's resonating with me SO HEAVILY! I'm driven to tears... I've begun to worry so much about my financial status, wanting to buy a house, wanting to be able to pay for my wedding, wondering how I'm gonna celebrate my 30th, etc. and I currently do UA-cam as well.. I began to create videos in order to become monetized and this has been taking away my joy for creation. It wasn't always this way... I now realize that I am steering further away from God in seeing me thru. I began to also job search.. God is providing thru my fiancé in order to take care of us and yet, it's "not enough" because my ego says "it's not from ME." Lord, forgive me for striving and not seeing this season and YOU as GOOD, PERIOD!

    Hey Alex, I just wanted to tell you that I will pray for you and your family. When I think about you and your wife I always have the words trust and obey in my head. You really are some kind of rolemodels for my life because you take Jesus as your ultimate rolemodel. But yes sometimes it can be hard to trust fully or to obey without hesitation, because we live in a broken world and we are not perfect. But it is also so comforting and encouraging to know that we have a perfect God who empowers us and who provides us with everything we need in this broken world so that we can bless others and show that there is a light in the dark. I will pray that you and your family will be provided with everything you need so that you can point to the Light/Jesus through your life. I pray for even deeper trust and patience. And for a lot of Joy which comes from the Lord for the things He has given you and He has got you through. God loves you so much and He sees you. He will not look away and will not leave you.
    A lot of blessing from germany :)

I always have a hard time watching or even listening to your vids sometimes because it feels too fast-paced or there's music that I find a bit distracting but, this? This is gold. It's calm, slow-paced, focused, quiet, serious, deep, and very heartfelt. I appreciate this type of content more where it feels like a real conversation with your virtual brothers and sisters. Thank you brother Alex for this rawness. I look forward to more of this style of vids. God bless you!

    This was a timely message bro. I am literally in the same season you are in right now. I don't have 5 kids and my channel isn't established like yours, but I have 2 kids with another on the way, and I heard the Lord tell me to start preaching and to stop pursuing other streams of income. My dream was always to have a business (or multiple) going so I would never feel like I had to preach or create content because I needed money, so when I heard the Lord speak to me about not pursuing anything else, It was hard to lay that dream down. Our current business isn't doing so well and we are feeling the financial pressure - needless to say, its a tough season. So I am pressing in and believing that if I did hear the Lord and if He did call me, He will provide and we will flourish.

    I was reborn around new years. For the first few months, I had quite a bit of fear. Still worried about finances, as my family always struggled, but I moved out during the pandemic and there were some weeks where I had no work, or only a few hours worth to bill. And then, I woke up to how close we are to the tribulation period. The denomination I grew up in didn't believe in a literal 7 year period, so the more I learned, the more I was praying for faith to endure and be beheaded for Jesus. I also thought about losing my house due to the new system and living off the land and such, and I learned two things as I prayed. 1. I gotta let go of everything. I threw out and sold the few possessions I held dearly, threw out some things, donated others. I wanted to believe God had me, and even if I lost my apartment, I'll be fine. It may be uncomfortable, but that doesn't mean he's abandoned me or my life is over or anything. And 2. God tells us not to worry about tomorrow or fear cause he got us. My denomination didn't teach about the rapture either, but the more I prayed and studied, it made the most sense. God wouldn't tell us all that's to come during that time and also tell us not to fear...he would either tell us to prepare like Noah and Joseph (for Egypt's drought), or he'll hide, protect, or pull us out like Lot, Rahab, etc. Since this is a worldwide event, there's no real safe place for us. I also realized he never let Lot or Noah see all the death around them. So anyways, when I realized the rapture and the tribulation was around the corner, it's like....nothing here matters. Why am I still worrying about survival, moreso when, through the grace of God, while my family struggled, we never went hungry or homeless. I now have this peace that can't be explained despite work only improving just a bit. I'm not worried. Whatever happens happens 😋 As long as I got Jesus ❤

    "Therefore, everyone who listens to these words of mine and acts on them will be like a sensible man who built his house on rock. Rain came down, floods rose, gales blew and hurled themselves against that house, and it did not fall: it was founded on rock. But everyone who listens to these words of mine and does not act on them will be like a stupid man who built his house on sand. Rain came down, floods rose, gales blew and struck that house, and it fell; and what a fall it had!" (Matthew 7:24-27). God's Word is our rock. No matter what's happening in our lives, if we are standing on God's Word, we will not fall.
