      Pray to God in Jesus name that His will shall be done. Then pray out loud that all bonds that are not according to His will, shall be broken. Matthew 18:18 For He is almighty so He can do all things, but you need to humble yourself and understand that we all need him. He loves you so much! Prayers for both of you go out to God. He is worthy and great. Thank God!! May God bless you

    This is so true! I've been in a couple relationships and have been deceived. They pretend to know God, go to church, claim they love Him, but as time went by their lives showed the total opposite one even being a pastor's son (no excuse). After those experiences Ive realized I just need to be patient and wait on the Lord. Being in pointless relationships is very stressful! and I realize I was losing myself and my values.

    I was engaged for 2 years with a woman who hated God for her son's accidental death. I thought I could change her and prayed for her everyday (still do) . I really thought I could change her...I had an opportunity to be on my churches worship team and come back to church regularly. I asked her if she wanted to go to church with me and she said "I don't want to have anything to do with Him" .Shortly thereafter I broke off the engagement. My heart is still broken a year and a half later It still hurts when I see her around town or with her new boyfriend. I know God has His plan for me. I have to be still and let GOD.

      It’s better to divorce than to not be doing the will of God. That may sound contradictory but it is okay you divorced. He’s not mad at you. Many people think that you’ll lose your salvation or something over it and that is not the case. This man you were married to could have caused your life to end earlier if you chose him over God your whole life. God is so happy you’re back in a relationship with just Him and no one else. Every sin is the same to God although it may not feel like it because some hold greater worldly repercussions than others. But if you realize what you’ve done wrong they’re just bumps to get over and get you on that straight and narrow path He’s called you on. Thank God you realized that sooner rather than later

    • @nicoleterrell1098
      @nicoleterrell1098 6 років тому +29

      Glamrocs Makeup - The word of God says not to divorce if you are already married to an unbeliever. If you are the woman, you can win him over to Christ through your submission to the Lord and obedience to the husband as long as his leadership stands on the word of God.
      If divorced, you can remarry him. It is only in death that you two are truly separated.
      If either of you marry someone else it is still adultery, so please be careful.
      Hope everything worked out. Praying for you and him.

      itsMOCA but you don't know their situation. It could have be been divorce due to adultery. Which warrants divorce. You can't walk in death if you're in Christ. Please don't spread false information. And last I checked God forgives all sins but blasphemy against the Holy Spirit. So even if she divorced for a different reason, when she repents, she is a new person. You don't know her, I don't think you should be choosing to give advice in that way especially not knowing her situation.

    The biggest mistake we make as woman is thinking we can change someone who isn't where we are rather that be he is unsaved or a non believer . I KNOW I have not only dated a man 29 years older then me but he was a atheist. God had convicted of going through with it early on , however I choose not to listen. Instead of him converting to Godly ways I converted into his worldly ways. We had our ups and downs but it was times where it really got toxic. he didn't value my values when it came to church, he didn't read the bible with me, no church, He dissed God and said he was God himself. talking about confusion, frustrating and sexual corruption. he had no desire to walk with me on my journey of pleasing God. I MADE A IDOL OF THAT MAN AND that still wasn't good enough. he was very jealous and made death threats towards me. I now have a sence of peace ...however I was very broken then the stage I was entering this one year relationship. SOUL TIES ARE real as well.

      Late but yes, I agree. I tried changing a woman myself when she herself was once a follower of God but led astray because she could not understand why God did certain things. Instead she would follow and idolize her friends who she tried to please and follow their every command and her favorite music bands. I thank the lord for saving me away from impregnating her to this day.

    I am dealing with a very broken heart after God clearly showed me that my relationship was not glorifying Him. One we are living together and we have a child, not married. We were both in the world when the relationship started but I got born again last year and God changed me radically. I’m even moving out with my son through the grace of God who is supplying for all our needs🙌🏾😭 it’s a hard thing to go through and my sons dad has already moved on to other women while I’m still in the house. God is just showing me exactly why I shouldn’t have been here to begin with 😭😭 it’s heartbreaking but I’d rather have my heart break while following the Lords will than to have it break serving a man, who was hurting me regardless of whether I was serving him or not.

I do pray for him a lot, I want God to change his life. Of course, he got upset and started saying that I "hurt him a lot" and that I will "never understand what it's like to be in a relationship because I guard my heart too much". He doesn't know that I am RELIEVED that God showed me who that boy was since Day 1. I just hope he won't stay semi upset at me for turning him down.

      My parents have been married for 27 years this year, and have never even considered a divorce. But that's because they really really love God, and they prayed and asked God if they were right for each other before they decided to get married. It's not always easy, but it's worth it. My mother's aunt has been married to her husband for probably 50 years or so, and she and her husband are such a beautiful couple ❤️ my grandma and grandpa (in Christ) have been married for about 60 years (give or take) and you can see they have the Holy Spirit in them and that they really truly know Jesus ❤️ I'm not saying that divorced Christians should feel condemned, but I truly believe that if both parties love God equally, and seeks to live out His Word together, that divorce will never be an option for them ❤️ God bless 🙏❤️

Like my last relationship, I was with a guy who only goes to church to pray and didn't feel the need to pray with me or go to my church, different denomination. There was a lack of spiritual connection but I stayed because I didn't want to be alone and thought well he believes in God so that's good enough. It's not for me. Im glad that I'm taking this time to build my relationship with God and He will provide everything I need.

    Recently I got out of an unequally yoked situation. Shacking up with my girlfriend when I was basically homeless. It was a trap and I knew it. At first I tried to refrain from sex ( silly to even put myself in that situation). Obviously we had sex and of course I felt convicted but was to weak to stop. The thing is I felt it was wrong but she didn't. She said that having sex before marriage because we're in a relationship is ok. I decided to turn my back on the bisexual lifestyle. I no longer participate in abominations.
    I made a Facebook post about my experience and somehow she didn't see it (hard to believe). Then she was saying she had to learn to accept it, but since we already had sex and she was in love she wanted to continue. So-called lust not love and her emotions drove her and I didn't help by fornicating with her. She met my family and she met mine but the fact is that path is not for me. It's the way of the world and it's not for me I got tested and I'm disease free but lust is still an obstacle. I'm deciding to strictly follow the Lord's wisdom. I repented for resisting the Spirit's wisdom.

    Such a great explanation (and example) of the bigger picture on marriage. It’s very tempting to use relationships for salvation or an emotional hole, but that’s God’s role in our lives. Also, the point about not trying to be someone’s saviour… yeah… again, it’s God’s role in their life.
    I find that it’s really important for each person to have a solid relationship with God independent of other people so that their faith can’t be rocked if anything happens with other people. God has been walking me through that lesson for a few months now, showing me that other people are great, but they can’t provide security and rest.
    “Come to Me, all you who labor and are heavy laden, and I will give you rest. Take My yoke upon you and learn from Me, for I am gentle and lowly in heart, and you will find rest for your souls.”
    ‭‭Matthew‬ ‭11:28-29‬ ‭NKJV‬‬

He said, He cannot do it. So O decided to broke up with him yesterday. I like him because he is so good but he does not have Christ in his life. I miss him but what can I do? Christ is important to me, His words are very important.

    I think there's more to being unequally yoked than we acknowledge. Yes, it's true God says this but its also true that God tells us we can be in a relationship with someone who doesnt believe what we believe so long as they are willing to remain around and live with us. We are directed to pray for out spouses even if they are unbelievers in our own belief. The issue is more of a. are they willing to submit despite differences, and b. can the two of you still love together given these differences. I'm sure there's a ton more to this but please pay attention to more than just one verse regarding this matter before someone who sincerely follows you misses out on something God has stored up for them. I would ALWAYS advise listeners to seek the truth for themselves and use their bibles to discover what we youtubers may miss or omit.
    God bless you both for pouring into your brethren.

    • @gemofGod184
      @gemofGod184 5 років тому +23

      Please understand that this is God's Word that they are referring to of what can result from unequally yoked relationships. It is shared with the hope that those listening will take into consideration before entering into a covenant of marriage with someone. The scriptures that you are referring to, ie 1 Corinthians 7:12-13 is what God has to say in reference to those who are already married. Yes once a covenant is made then God desires for us to uphold the agreement we made with Him and our spouse so under those circumstances then what you are speaking of would apply. However, it is important for us to understand that the possible results still apply and affect the union and children that could come out of that marriage. I also know of a union between a Christian and Muslim who have been married for 40+ years happily. So I understand your point, I also know how it has affected the faith of their children and created confusion. So the advice that they are sharing is absolutely correct. I totally agree with you that we should all study the Word for ourselves to fully understand and receive 2 Timothy 2:15. I do believe that they would agree with that as well.

      Dominique Moore I strongly believe that if you prayed God definitely showed you what to do but because you're so tied up to that guy you really feel like you'll be miserable after the break up, just do what God is telling you and then get into a new, waay much better relationship with Christ and you'll enjoy it. It won't be an easy journey to start but with time Christ in you will just make everything fall into place, this is actually my testimony, I was also in an unequally yoked relationship and I thought I'd be miserable and worthless if we broke up but I listened to the Holy spirit when he told me what to do and today I'm working on my relationship with God and I couldn't be happier, I believe you'll get there too with time.

Believe me, you will see that he is not worth settling for, so not worth your relationship with God and your eternity.

He faught me so hard when I wanted to stop "doing things" that dishonored God. I wanted God to be the center of our relationship but he said God was already there. He was totally against the idea of praying with me, reading the bible with me and establishing a time where we would seek the Lord as a couple before marriage. He ssaid since we go to the same church we are seeking God together. And for him that seemed to be quite enough. It was not enough then nor is it enough for me now. Don't be like me!!!

My point is people change and grow as time goes on. I've also found that as people get older they become more balanced when it comes to how they view people outside their faith. I believe there is more to a person than their spiritual beliefs.

    • @lobi5104
      @lobi5104 6 років тому +58

      Dev M I don't think that is the point being made. It's perfectly okay to have friends and acquaintances that are not christian. But there is no reason why you should be best of friends with people who do not know Christ. Bad company corrupts good character. It's just the truth of the matter. Your close friends are the people you run to when you need help, when you need advice, when you need encouragement. Why would you want an inner circle that cannot intercede on your behalf in prayer or give you godly advice? No one is saying do not associate with non Christians, as a matter of fact some level of association is needed so they can be pointed to Christ themselves, but you need to be honest with yourself in discerning how much pull your "inner circle" has on your life. Sometimes we love our 'day ones ' even more than we love God, and will be led into sin just so we can maintain those friendships.

      langsteen, you are a dangerously ignorant dumbfuck. my fiancee is a christian. it would be a sad day if she didn't come to me for advice in her greatest need. of course she does. i have christian friends. i have medical power of attorney for some of them. i am an atheist. i debate christians regularly. i have helped many people leave christianity. dev is the only reasonable person here. what matters is what kind of a person they are. you are a horrible person, a large sack of steaming pile of shit.

    Oh my...I would have loved for my parents to teach me this. I am in an unequally yoked marriage and it has been devastating. Yet the joy in this trial is praying for my daughters' future husband.

    I just got out of an unequally yoked relationship about 3 months ago. Both saved but believed two different things. It took God to use my friend to tell me it was unequal and we were engaged I broke up with him because of realizing we were unequally yoked. Can I say I feel so much more content, a lot of people say I’m glowing and look so much happier than I did when in the relationship!

    Very very true. There was this guy who I liked but it's like he was only interested in sex and we had one encounter one time but then I decided to give my life over to Jesus. And I guess he didn't like it and told me to take care and decided to cut it off. So oh well I'm sorry but I feel like what I did was the best thing I had ever did. I been through so much and I was like no I can't do this. Make God the top and everything will fall into place
