I agree 100% 1st time I was told the gospel (When I had ears to hear) It was in a rehab, and this man I almost wonder if he wasn't one of God's honestly. But he told me, everytime you seek God, say Jesus start talking something will happen to dis...... Fire truck goes off and just sits there... Tries to continue, ambulance goes off. I'm not joking when I tell you everytime he tried something happened to distract us from talking about this exactly. This was also in arms reach of what the church service was yesterday. Thanks Brother Love ya
Mr Comfort, I have doubted a concept of evil. Painful stimulations are inflicted on wicked people in Hell for everlasting period, they have no seconds for sleeping as bible says, but no one in Heaven feel empathy for the suffering people. Everlasting contempt remains for eternity, everlasting torture continues forever. This is humanity in the future. Our universe is nothing more than an empire which was governed by an everlasting contempt, God. And Satan is an insane murderer who love torturing all creatures. On the earth all we are stabbed by Satan, on the new earths some of us will become loving creatures filled with everlasting contempt against others in Hell.
In the Gehenna, wicked people won’t forget memories on the earth, foods, communication with friends, camping with their parents, hugging with others, water, views of sunset, shopping at local grocery stores, moments of births of their children, classes of colleges, whispers of wind, their birthday parties…sweet breathes. Anyway they are tortured by fire and brimstone for everlasting period, saints almost forget interactions with them on the earth because Heaven is the most beautiful place, so God(holy lamb) and saints can torture wicked people without any empathies.
Hmm, your doing great preaching b ut I think the satan think has done this / distraction bit/ when you mention the gospel might be somewhat overstated. Some people will be distrated becuase they are being challenged..its that simple/ and possibly, in other cases there might be a satanic element that distracts people at this point/ I donr know but its definitely possible.
I'm losing my eyesight in both eyes (lost the left eye completely) when you said "God knows the atoms in the middle of your eyeball because he made it" I felt an overwhelming emotion, I cried. I realized I haven't been trusting God. God has a purpose for me and if I trust him I will not lose my sight, at least not spiritually, which is worth more than anything. Thank you for thisv ideo. Update: since this video I've put 💯 percent trust in God, and rededicated my life to His will. So many blessings have been upon me but the best... I went for my monthly injections in my eyes, (been going monthly, shots both eyes for over a year) and the Dr told me we can move to every other month, Dr says the blood vessels are shrinking, he said first time he's noticed any change since my first visit! Praise God!! 🙏 Edit (again) thanks everyone for the kind words and prayers. The BEST part of all of this is I see I've touched 238 people that have liked my comment. That makes it ALL worthwhile. The adversary may have tried to use my blindness/struggles for evil but God is using it for good. Hopefully many more will be touched by my testimony. God bless!
Pray the word! 1 Peter 2:24. “and He Himself bore our sins in His body on the cross, so that we might die to sin and live to righteousness; for by His wounds you were healed.” I trusted God that a 1 Peter 2:24 healing would happen for me and yesterday I woke up and was healed of my learning disability and processing errors! I can finally process what I read and hear with ease :) God has healed me of my sexual trauma, anemia and many other things. I'm trusting Him that He will open my eyes one day. I'm not blind but my vision is pretty bad. Jesus gave sight to the blind so I KNOW one day I'll open my eyes and have 20/20 vision. If you trust God and His word, He will bring it to pass
I was starting to share the gospel with a young man I work with in a restaurant (we're both hosts), and right as I was about to explain the cross and what Jesus did, we got really busy. I hope to work with him again soon so I can fully explain it.
My mom was sharing it at a butcher store. And the ladies that were cutting the meats were listening. Until one of their big knifes "slipped" and she almost cut a finger of the coworker next to her, she got really mad at that (I mean, she almost lost a finger). And my mom explained to them "oh look, this happens when u share the gospel"
It happened to me where I was talking to a street preacher and all of a sudden 2 couples male & female independent of each other started arguing extremely loud. One argument was across the street the 2nd argument was on my side of the street. That was a crazy night. The yelling was so loud from these 2 couples I feared it could’ve turned violent. I’m glad Ray showed that verse. Take care everyone!
I really hope she gets saved. She genuinely seemed open-minded to what Ray was saying to her. I always love seeing humility in unbelievers like her when they are given the Gospel message.
I wanna debate this guy soooo much. Can I change him to be more open-minded? Everyone he talks to is clueless in belief, I want to see him debate someone with some form of knowing
My husband and I faced this too... His Grandad was really close to passing so we wanted to share the gospel with him (when his Grandad was healthy he was not open at all, he will literally take you out of his house if you ever tried to speak about God or Jesus), it was thru a phone call since we don't live in the same state, the line broke not one but 3 times just the moment we started sharing the good news. Finally after several attempts we were able to share the gospel with him and he received Jesus. He passed shortly after that. But we as family can remain confident and have peace that he is now truly resting.
There have been times where I’ve been evangelizing over the phone or in a game on the voice chat and the person’s internet goes out. I immediately pray for them because that’s a demonic attack and God will deliver them if we have faith. The times where I haven’t prayed, they never come back. The times that I pray, they come right back. That’s the beauty of God
When I first started recognizing the immense power of prayer, I had been showing my children (under 10yo) the video of Ron Wyatt finding the Ark of the Covenant. Internet started loading, we reset and prayed and it came right back 2 or 3 times always came back. Usually when the internet does that through the TV, it's done for the day. We asked that if God wanted us to see the video, he would make sure we could! Kids have been big believers in prayer ever since!
@@cheerfulmouse amen. We should be the example to them. They should know God because they see God constantly in our lives. I thank God every time I think about my future when I have kids because I know for a fact that they will witness miracles and healings and deliverances and they will pray and watch what God does time and again. It brings so much joy. We have the most important job. I’m so glad you led by example that way! That’s awesome to hear
I was demon possessed during covid lockdown and a pastor was teying to deliver me through video call. The call kept disconnecting and we lost internet. That almost never happens. Except when theres a typhoon. There was no weather issue.
A coworker asked me yesterday why I became a Christian and as soon as I began my sentence to answer, we were interrupted. I began my sentence probably 5 times before I could get out a 30 second version of the gospel. Praise God for the opportunity! Let us remember to pray during interruptions for God to intervene! Holy Spirit, open our eyes to see who you want us to reach out to in the name of Jesus.
Honestly. Went to Catholic schools for 12 years. I’ve heard the same scripture over and over again…. But it wasn’t until recently that I learned what it meant and how to live it.
Nothing to so with religion. GOD is Spirit and they that worship him worship in spirit and truth. Too many Christians dwell on sin. And they don't see the Light..denying it..revelation 2 READ IT
I swear I can literally recall this happening hundreds of times throughout my life when people are about to be told the Gospel. I remember a few years ago on a Sunday morning getting into my car to go to church for the first time and my car would not start and the car was new. I walked to church even though I was late and when I came back the car started just fine.
@@khrystalkhoury62 From what I understand we are not to swear on things, we should just say yes or no. Let your no be your no and your yes be your yes. We're not supposed to swear by an oath, or on our lives or on God or anything else. But to say "I swear" in this context is like saying "I definitely remember this." I think this person is just being honest. Or would it be better or change the meaning of the statement at all to literally say "I definitely remember this" instead? Genuinely, is it a sin to say "I swear" outside of the context of an oath or trying to convince someone of a yes or no answer? And if so, is it a sin to make a promise? “Again you have heard that it was said to those of old, ‘You shall not swear falsely, but shall perform to the Lord what you have sworn.’ But I say to you, Do not take an oath at all, either by heaven, for it is the throne of God, or by the earth, for it is his footstool, or by Jerusalem, for it is the city of the great King. And do not take an oath by your head, for you cannot make one hair white or black. Let what you say be simply ‘Yes’ or ‘No’; anything more than this comes from evil. Matthew 5:33-37
I always find it interesting when people vehemently deny there is a God, but if you ask them, "Do you believe in satan?" They JUMP to the chance to say, "Oh, absolutely." I'm praying for people!
I know. I don't get it. When I was 13 and my grandma was murdered I got angry and turned from God. He allowed THE DARK to torment me for years until I cried out to Him!! I finally realized that if the darkness is real, then so is the opposite which is light and God and truth and the Way. Hallelu-YAH. But it baffles me too, to be sure. 🤔🤷♀️😭
@@Horustheoriginalgod The demonstrable evidence is mere existence and the miracle it took for you and I to even be alive to have this exchange, in the first place. As an Atheist physicist put it (as one of the best arguments for the existence of God), the chances of life existing the way it does in our known universe is like playing the lottery and winning a consecutive 10,000 times and each time you turn in your winnings ticket, you're struck by a lightning bolt.
I used to be agnostic, but over time I've accepted Jesus in to my life. My biggest challenge with reading the Bible is how difficult it can be to digest. Every message has so many philosophical implications it can take days, or weeks to wrap your head around it. For example, something like "Trust the Lord" seems like a simple message, however, even those few words have such broad implications, they take you on a life long journey to full understand.
I needed to read this. I love reading but, have a hard time following the verses back and forth. Which makes understanding the bible difficult for me. I live my life in belief of My Creator, but walking the steps with Jesus correctly is hard..
Before I was saved I knew I was a bad person. I knew I had an evil heart because I desired the wrong and dark things in life and I also pursued some of them. Which I hated myself for. I also knew that I had two pathways in life if I hadn't chosen to accept God; first one is to take my own life and if I chose not to that I would have most likely ended up in prison.
I have never noticed this. Whenever I've evangelized, I have rarely got someone to stand around long enough to hear the gospel. Downtown DC is a hard place to evangelize.
@@barbarafriedenberger6205 God had Angels. One of the "top angels" was Lucifer. He rebelled against God as well as 1/3 of his angels and was cast down from the heavens to Earth.
@@barbarafriedenberger6205 He created him as a angel and he was a very beautiful musical player before he became evil and was cast out of heaven. So Satan took it upon his self to overthrow God. He wasn't tempted because they were no tempter in heaven. So hear on earth we got a tempter and he is the devil and many will fall because of him.
*The devil wants you to worry about what's next so you can't enjoy what's now!Don't worry. Take a deep breath!Always focus on GOD and enjoy every single day He has given you!*
We witness this EVERYTIME we go out to preach the gospel. The enemy always attempts to snatch the seeds. (Matt 13:19) But, God's word never returns void! (Is 55:11) Hallelujah!
While I'm watching this I am sitting alone in a quiet corner at school. At 7:17 something happend to me. You started talking about the gospel after having explained how you will get distracted, and at 7:17 two guys came out from a door screaming LOUD. This distracted me so much I put down my phone and paused for a second. It sure is true what you said.
I probably wiggled at some point when I was agnostic new ager. Now I’m a newer believer in Jesus Christ. I did not believe satan existed before and was turned off by Christians. Why? Bc I believed what the msm showed me (the cult owns the media) The n w o has been doing one massive smear campaign by infiltrating churches all over the world. Russ Dizdar exposed this too. It’s rampant. I hope more Christians start using spiritual warfare against the infiltration in their churches. 🙏🏻😇
Though she did get distracted, it sure does seem like The Holy Spirit brought her back in line with hearing the message by the end. Really nice video, once again, Ray. ✝️
True! It happens all the time. One time I mention the name Jesus Christ and the woman voice totally changed and she said quote: I DONT WANT TO HEAR THAT NAME! All my hairs on neck and arms stood up.
I've constantly battled with sin and it seems the more I fight the harder things get for me it is always in my eyes as effects of doing good and how bad opportunities become present. I can honestly say it is amazing that I got to see this video today and I truly hope all get better before time is up in Jesus name thank you so much Amen!!! 🙏
Freedom comes from surrender to God not by promising Him that you'll try to do better. Surrender to Jesus who gives us The Holy Spirit to overcome sin.
As a friendly reminder, a reason it gets harder is your fighting and trying to do the work. As Believers what we need to do is submit to God and trust in Him fully that He would correct us and purify us and through His Spirit, turn from our sin and back to God. I struggled so much, "I" am trying to stop, "I" have to make myself not do this, I need to use this to not do this. And that's why it doesn't get easier is because we are relying on ourselves to fix our sin and we cant. We need to fully rely and trust in God.
You should try fasting it doesn't have to be for long, try one day . Remember to pray during this time and ask God for help. God knows you're battling. Never give up. God bless you .
We al struggle but stop trying…. Give it all to Christ… he’s the one that sheds all the idols and all the sin from your life. He does it in my life all the time. Only when I rely on Him.
Same. I've always said it's because the harder you try to escape sin, the devil tries to make you stay in sin. Satan doesn't want you to do good so when you're trying to escape your life gets harder but don't give up& keep fighting & you can make it through
At first everytime I tried to read my Bible I would fall asleep, now I try to read at least one chapter per day and I watch a UA-cam video about that chapter, it does help.
But I can also remember this happened to me when some one was evangelizing to me. I could actually feel gods presence but didn't understand and got distracted by the enemy...that's ok, the person preaching to me planted a mustard seed. Years later I can see these are one of many moments Jesus is calling out to me. I finally heard him, Amen 🙏Praise you lord Jesus , king of king's ❤️
Very encouraging. Planted seeds for many people and felt sad at the rejection and lost friends but your testimony gives hope for the few chosen who finally see and come to Christ Jesus. Must continue to reach out. Peace
Oh my goodness, this just brought back to my remembrance when I first came to Christ Jesus and I was super excited about all that I was learning. I tried MULTIPLE TIMES to talk about the Bible, Jesus and everything else I was learning with my friend (who considers herself to be a Christian) and she would get "busy" or distracted in some type of way, every single time. I was so disappointed because I thought we were going to grow in Christ together 😟
Wow, the enemy really hates us learning the gospel. I remember when I first starting walking with Jesus my sister in law was praying over me and my eyes started shaking violently and uncontrollably. After the prayer she mentioned her eyes started shaking after a bit. Of course I told her that was happening to me the whole time. Weird experience. God’s love prevails. What Jesus did on the cross is above it all. I pray for this woman to really believe in the gospel. Thank you for sharing with people, you encourage me to do so too.
God bless you, Ray, you bold, loving, humble and wonderful servant of Christ! I praise God for his goodness and for sending faithful servants like you to the rest of us. Thank you Ray for staying so faithful and for boldly proclaiming the Gospel 🙏🏻❤️
He desires you to be His faithful servant as well. He wants you to be bold, loving, humble, and wonderful in reaching the world. Ray can't do this all on his own. We all must deny ourselves and carry our cross
Seeing Satan’s will manifest so blatantly is actually terrifying. May she and all the others who are blinded by the adversary find Jesus & salvation through Him.
The text message is what got me. I swear when I listen to worship music, and the spirit starts taking over, this happens everytime!!! It's always a commercial about carnal desires of this world, or a mental health commercial giving the worst advice instead of directing us to God. The devil is trying his hardest...
My greatest happiness in life comes from following Jesus Christ our Lord and Savior. So I’m keeping faith in him. As a single mother things tend to be difficult on me. My husband passed years ago so I’m alone. I’m overwhelmed because both of my children are autistic and non verbal. I’m struggling trying to support them and myself. I lost my job as a social worker at Forsyth because I declined the vaccine. I declined because of my pre existing health condition lupus and heart disease. I was denied my medical/religious exemption. I wish I could go back to the hospital but the mandate is still in place for hospitals that participate in Medicare and Medicaid. I’m waitressing and I’m so thankful to be working again, but I’m not making nearly enough to make ends meet. I’m so discouraged and ready to give up. But God keeps me going. I have been put down and mocked over my situation by fellow christian’s. It hurts my heart. I’m still struggling putting groceries in my refrigerator, and paying bills. Every month is a struggle, to not end up on the streets. It’s embarrassing and overwhelming but I have faith God will provide. He HAS THIS FAR. He hasn’t forsaken me! WITH GOD ALL THINGS ARE POSSIBLE! I BELIEVE!
Wow -- let this be a call to be vigilant in our prayers and aware of Satan's attack! He does NOT like what you're doing, Ray. Keep marching forward, contending for the gospel!! 🙏
It's incredible to see how awake and focus this man is, he uses the word of God and not his own and that's why he is so effective bringing fruit, he truly is attached to the vine.
he edits his videos, chooses how to present it, and also adds the music to encourage " moments" .. the same can be done with all religions, portray it so it seems "gloryfull " or "good and kind" or whatever... the truth is: zero evidence that any god exists, 1 religion devided over +100.000 denominations, religious wars, hell for all those that do not accept jesus, etc...

@💖AGM indeed, for that type of freedom much have died... being a protestant during 1643 in germany would have you killed, or being a muslim in spain during 1458, or being an atheist in most religious fanatic countries.. but aside that, that is not how religion works, you ONLY get saved if you devote your life to it, and follow the laws .. it sees all that do not think as teached in the religion as " enemy" or "false" or at best "misguided and in urgent need for rescue"... that goes for muslims, christians, hindus, buddists, etc... Q: do you follow your religious laws with ALL of your heart ?
@@daughterofzion1083 well, i have no proof that he was the messiah, the jews werent saved by him... in fact , it made them be the victim of hate for centuries after jesus died.. till today.. those miracles were just stories, you eiter believe them or not, all religions have miracles, you don't believe them , right ? well guess what, all those pagans from other religions don't believe your miracles are true.. seems like an stalemate... without evidence, no progress..

@@mekavio8231 Romans 3: 20 NLT: For no one can ever be made right with God by doing what the law commands. The law simply shows us how sinful we are. Romans 3: 29 After all, is God the God of the Jews only? Isn’t he also the God of the Gentiles? Of course he is. 30 There is only one God, and he makes people right with himself only by faith, whether they are Jews or Gentiles.[j] 31 Well then, if we emphasize faith, does this mean that we can forget about the law? Of course not! In fact, only when we have faith do we truly fulfill the law.
This was eye-opening… Ray just gave us video proof of the spiritual warfare described in Ephesians 6:12. It’s as if we could see the demons trying to steal away these souls… Let us boldly and urgently proclaim the gospel to this dying world!
This has happened to me too everytime I share the gospel to people close to me 💔 but I thank God that He has power over the enemy because somehow God just works through all the snares the enemy tries to put into the minds of the listeners.
The way you speak so kindly, with just the most gentlest authority, is what I’m learning from you. Will you pray with me that God uses me for His glory? I am open to receive all of his lessons and guidance. My heart grieves for those I’ve met and left without sharing the good news.
Ray, your talks with all those young people blow my mind! I live near Bern in 🇨🇭 and wish I had some starter-kits like yours available in German! Tomorrow morning I will head for the Christian bookshop first thing to search for gospel material! I am so eager to evangelize again after having been hindered to leave my house for so long (due to a couple of strokes). Yesterday, it was a beautiful sunny but cool Sunday, I went for a long walk with the Rollator. Guess what? I kept meeting so many people that I eventually made it home some 5 hours later (very hungry but totally SATISFIED!) I felt as if I had just been raised from the „temporal grave“. I INSTANTLY KNEW: This is my calling! This is where I belong! Out in the streets of my village where the people are whom God brings along my path. Would you believe that I was fully prepared and even longing to „go home to be with the Lord“ after the first stroke (7 years ago) as a „shut-in“, so thankful for the I-pad as the only window into the outside world, rejoicing over sooooo much time all of a sudden? Then…..some 6 months ago, I was surprised by another medium stroke, while I lost my speech and mobility for 48 hours. Why am I telling you all this? SINCE YESTERDAY only I am pleading with God NOT to take me home just yet; I MUST go out and share the gospel with as many lost souls as possible, as long as there is time and opportunity. THANK YOU RAY FOR YOUR LOVE FOR JESUS!! You are a wonderful inspiration to me! THANK YOU JESUS FOR YOUR GOSPEL! ❤🙏
That was so touching a testamony that it brought tears to my eyes. I feel the same way " don't take home just yet; I MUST go out and share the gospel with as many lost souls as possible" I lost everything dear to me in this life and including my 14 year old daughter to bone cancer. But I want to live to preach the Gospel. So I moved to Bali, Indonesia where I go out and speak to several people in a day and explain the disease and then give the cure.
I hope you get many chances to get out there and preach the gospel before you go be with the Lord. and if you cant get out and about talk to anyone and everyone you can where you are. God bless you
@@Ms.noelp453 Thank You Noel! You want to pray for me? Then listen carefully: For 7 years (since the first stroke) I neglected my mother tongue, returning to English altogether. Forced to a shut-in life, reading the Bible and watching videos, thinking, even dreaming in E, eventually my command of Swiss-German deteriorated. But NOW, since I live in Switzerland and need the language badly here, I struggle with both the articulation and word-finding! And for this very great need I dare ask you to pray! Would you? Will you? Please! THANK YOU SO MUCH, dear Noel!🙏❤️

Brother Ray, I am so glad to hear this because when I explained the gospel some people get distracted. It was disappointing. I had given them the bad news and when I give the good news, satan comes in and distracts me. I feel support watching and learning that we all have encountered this. This motivates me more to reach the lost and make sure they really do understand the Gospel of grace. God bless you all!
Me too, but I’m distracted 300 times with anything I try to focus on. Seems like I’m in a constant state of being tested 😅 I just push through though, even if it takes me a hot minute to get there lol.
I’ve seen the same thing happen when sharing the Gospel, a phone rings, a baby cries, a noisy car goes by, it’s uncanny. So hard to bring the conversation back around again.
Reminds me of me talking to my aunt TODAY! I’ve been trying to talk to her for a couple of years now even my husband. Well she’d just gotten back into town, after being gone for about a month, and text me a couple of days ago to let me know she’d made it back. Since she hadn’t seen my daughter in a while I thought I’d drop by and surprise her. The whole time she held my daughter and although played with her she’d talk to me. Well as I began to talk to her about Christ she got very distracted with Jedidiah (2 Samuel 12:25) although she wasn’t doing anything. Satan wants nothing more than for people to go to hell eternally separated from God. It was so grieving to note apart from Christ she’d go there.
Its because all the nonsentical stuff like the singing goes on for too long. I just want to hear the message and reflect on it, the singing and standing and group prayer can go away for me personally
@@CloudieCoffees i understand thats how some people veiw it. Me personally i worship and give praise to God constantly throughout the day everyday. The singing just aint for me.

So good to be reminded of. I have found lately this is true when it comes to Christians as well; he wants us to stay distracted. I've seen believers who either were on the verge of making strides in their faith or who are kept from even getting there because they have been kept distracted. Too many demands and enticements in their career and academic aspirations, and they don't have time to read books that can help them understand biblical truth. In one recent situation I had a friend who is on a path of sin, and I kept trying to warn her of the danger she was in, gave her resources, found a person who was able and willing to mentor her, and she knew she needed the help. But she was kept too busy to think, and everything she had available to help her grow got pushed out and forgotten about after every serious talk we had about the issues. Now her heart has become very hard and she is becoming more set in her ways, because she did not stop and reconsider her choices when she could have; she's gone from distracted to resistant, and it didn't take long either. Her faith has become smothered by the desires for good things she is after.
My evidence study bible just came in the mail today!!!!!!!❤❤❤ please pray for me that I may get to know God more! I would love to go out to evangelize and be used as a vessel that speaks life and the word of God to everyone!
There have been a couple of occasions where I was witnessing in a crowded area, and there would be at least one person who'd go around making a bunch of noise or yelling out things, drawing attention to themselves. It can be frustrating, but it can also be encouraging, like "hey, we're actually making waves here!"
I have experienced the exact same phenomenon every time. Ray Comfort is expert in gently but firmly keeping things on track of course having prayed in advance ...
never shares Leviticus 20:13 to anyone... he cherrypicks his favourite verses, and ignores those he doesn't like or don't agree with.. that isn't impressive and that is NOT how religion works..
@@mekavio8231 he has made a video condemning homosexuality, and goes against many other things that he doesnt like talking about. God wants a relation not a religion.
The same thing happened with my aunt who is gay. We were going through the 10 commandments and she stated that she was a good person and that’s why she would make it to heaven. I shared how the Bible said there was none good no not one. After that, I started to go through the law and her son came and interrupted and she said she didn’t want to talk anymore. 😭
I’m always impressed by Ray. Witnesses with grace and mercy, and patiently presents the truth. Love your style. I admire your courage. It’s guys like you who make the world a better place. Thanks 🙏 keep up the good work.
Great video, I have seen the distractions as well. Its good to see someone power through to get them the important information that God wants them to see.
I also believe some of these people do not want to hear Ray to begin with but for a free gift card they will pretend to listen. Ray knows this of course but he is hoping to plant even the smallest seed. it is incredibly rude to not listen to someone who is giving his whole attention to just you. Plus you agreed by taking the gift card.
This is so true! I remember when I was in my teens a friend of mine came to visit me and he wanted to hang out, drink and party. But I told him I am no longer into that lifestyle that I found something better and I told him to wait for me. He waited outside in his car and when I came out I brought the Bible. His face was fearful and he didn’t want to look at it. He kept looking somewhere else He said to put it away! Put it away! I thought it was weird of him to be afraid of the Bible and I told him calm down & bumped it on his head. I told him I wasn’t hanging out tonight so he left. He texted me later and told me that Jesus was real and he remembers his mother would take him to church he said something happened when I bumped the Bible on his head. He said he he felt lighter and easier in spirit and talked to me about God. At around 3am he told me the devil was strong. And he was struggling. I tried telling him about Jesus but he stopped responding to me. I pray that He is okay wherever he is at and that he returned his life to the Lord.
That’s why we’re all distracted and we can’t focus because the Devil is all about trickery! Praying for myself and everyone that will be tested and distracted by evil 👿! Trust in Jesus Christ and Amen 🙏🏼! She’s going to be ok ⛑️⛑️ Jesus is my Helmet ⛑️
This makes a lot of sense, when I’ve tried to share the gospel my friend gets distracted, irritated or something happens to intervene. Do you think this is getting worse as the time of Jesus return approaches?
I am part of an evangelizing ministry through horses. One day right when I was sharing the gospel and said the words “ Jesus Christ” a horse busted free from his tie down and trampled me. This has never happened before and there was plenty of ways the horse could have traveled but he went straight at me. I ended up with a concussion and bruised bones…I am certain it was an attack from satan. I have always had a fear of horses but I love this ministry so much that I work with the horses to spread the gospel. My issue is that it really set me back in my fear and why would God allow that to happen and not intervening. The Lord could have intervened. I am still going strong in this ministry but boy has it set me back in my fear,
No matter what happens to us even unto death, it's what's best for us. God knows what's best because He's Sovereign! If you can come to believe this with all your heart your fear will subside. Don't fear man (or horses) who can only kill the body, but fear God who can kill the body and send the soul to hell.
The Lord Said be Strong and Courageous,do not be Afraid or Dismayed for the Lord God is with you whenever you go. Satan uses Fear and Doubt to Stop you from sharing Gospel. Don't be Afraid Sister in Christ the Lord God Jesus will Fight For you Don't be Afraid of Satan attack when Temptation comes Satanic is Angry or Afraid
I had such a great epiphany when whilst watching a sermon of the late Derek Prince, he taught that fear is an evil Spirit, rebuke fear and tell it to leave in Jesus name and I swear ever since if I feel fear creeping in, I command the spirit of fear to leave in Jesus name and I claim peace from the Holy Spirit and that is life changing!
Maybe God did intervene or you might have been hurt much worse. It's not easy being a Christian but you have to have faith and trust in the Lord. Even the writers in the bible didn't have an easy life and suffered many times but they knew their suffering was nothing compared to the eternal life God promises us. Hang in there Laura and keep praying..take care..GBU
Praise the Lord you were protected. I am a horse woman and i’m really interested to hear about the horse ministry? Could you share some info as this js something i’d like to do in the UK. God bless 🙏🏻
Way to go, Ray! God was there with her inside you. It looked like she was lost through the distractions, but when you finished, she had heard the good news. She had hope, then she smiled when you gave her the Gospel of John. We may see her again.
I have been watching other videos without interruption. Then when you came to the gospel, 1st the dogs came to me wanting my attention. Then someone came up to me asking me questions. I backed up the video 3 times till I was able to hear the word. Satan really doesn't like it.
The common "eye darting" to see who's watching is indicative of pride. I've been there in similar situations, but always knew that was a tactic used by the enemy to distract me from important information. Got to the point that when I feel those thoughts arise, I engage and listen even more intensively.
Same thing happend to a group of kids. A pastor and I were sharing the gospel to and this group who wanted to dedicate their lives to Jesus when behind them a wasp nest and scared them off.
Thanks for another great video, Ray! ❤ As I was scrolling through the comments I realized that this is also me, in the sense that I can be horribly distracted by You Tube. I don’t want to give it up because your videos and so much other great Christian content. So, I vowed to only watch your latest video and get off the phone. Instead I got into the comments. But that turned out to be a good thing! It was while reading the comments I made the connection to my mindless scrolling to the distraction of the devil. I have been praying about my wasting time and this is an answer to my prayer. God is so good to us!! 🤗
@Simon Tilbey Yes, Simon you were very helpful! I appreciate you taking time to respond. I confess that I have fallen back into it, especially in the evenings. I go to watch one little video, get sucked in, then later “snap out of it” feeling disappointed l wasted precious time. I am going to put you on my prayer list, and pray God will strengthen us both! 🤗🙏🏻❤️
Omg that’s awesome that you gave her the book of John. I remember the first time I actually sat down and studied the book for John, I cried. You don’t really understand just how profound and fascinating that book really is until you take your time REALLY reading it.
This happened to me twice on Monday when talking with 2 coworkers. Another coworker came in and started talking really loud taking the attention of the other 2. It made me laugh, and I said the same thing you're saying here....Satan doesn't want the gospel to be shared .
_I'm nearing 65, born and raised in a Gospel preaching and teaching church. Repented, accepted Jesus as my personal Savior, Baptized and have committed my life to Him. I said all that to say this, I still get so emotional when I hear the teachings of Jesus' love for us. His sacrifice for us.🙏 I guess I thought after thirty+ years I would be like so many other Christians that I see that can speak of His Goodness in a calm and collected manner_ _And everytime, and I mean EVERYTIME I listen to this Ministry and see the expressions on the faces of those being enlightened, I get choked up, the tears begin to swell and then the tears begin to flow 😇 It's like I'm cleansed all over again...each and everytime and for this, I thank you_
Amen, a new 22 year old Christian here and I rarely cry about anything. Put me in church though and I can’t help but to cry hearing the truth or singing praise to Him.
This happens to me also at work when I try to explain why things are happening the way they are. I would just say to myself, “they don’t want to know,” but maybe it is Satan distracting them. I’m going to keep this in mind from now on when I try to share the Gospel.
My heart breaks every time Satan is successful at distracting someone! I just pray that the seed God planted will be watered and will grow in the future!
I was planning on talking to an old man to share the gospel as I was walking on a path next to him, but long story short, he was counting his steps! I said, “oh I’ll leave you be then :)” and we split up on the bike path. I’ve never shared the gospel before but I’m getting this welling up feeling where I just can’t keep going day to day without spreading the gospel. Anyone else feel like that?
YES!!! I am praying for you and pray for me too! I have been praying for a partner to go out and share the gospel just for an hour or two a week. IT IS SUCH A JOY to watch other Christians faithful in sharing the gospel, and it helps me with my spiritual depression over not being able to find a partner. I've gone by myself a few times, and the LORD SHOWS UP! I want to share this joy with another Christian together....to me that IS THE ABUNDANT LIFE, when we live out the Lord and seek the lost, using the gifts He gave us so that NONE PERISH. I have been really drifting lately and Ray helps me to remember to keep the faith and keep on trusting the Lord no matter how hard this trial is. God bless you as you listen to the Holy Spirit and SPEAK the truth in love!
Yes, As believers and as rescued sinners, Many survivors of Satan’s snares are wanting to share the good news that Jesus Rescues us from Satan and sin’s destruction in our lives. Enjoy the freedom and know that God is with you when you share the good news. Speak from a compassionate heart and you can’t go wrong. Hold every thought captive so that Satan does not speak through you and confuse people. For not all of us are perfect in our communication skills. We must strive to learn and write down what God is speaking to us to speak to others. Keep in mind also that if demons try to trip you up in your speaking then hold your tongue and pray. I hope this helps for you to step out when the moment comes. Because it is in the moment that the HOLY spirit works and not on our own time schedule. That, my friend, is probably the biggest lesson I had to learn, as a School teacher, since we were all usually on a schedule. It is not on our time but on HIS time that God can make miracles happen right in front of your eyes at any given moment. Do not fear, for God is always near. Just listen for HIS voice and know that it is to do good, to heal, to give, to help in some small way, to share a testimony, to ask if there’s anything they need, to declare that God wants to give to ALL people who want HIM as their Lord, or to hand them a small New Testament book so they can start to read for themselves. People usually cannot understand the Old Testament and it’s overwhelming to give them a full Bible. You have to consider nonbelievers as going through kindergarten or elementary in knowing a HOLY God and KNOWING Jesus Fully. Most people do not. Understanding their position in life, you will begin to see yourself more as a gentle teacher like Jesus was. But you must let the Holy Spirit speak through you rather than speak from your own mind hastily. Ask and you will receive this wisdom. It is priceless.
Not RFecognizing, that he is STILL preaching ANOTHER (FALSE!!!) GOSPEL, namely: Turn from your Sins ?!!!!!!!! wich is WORK-Based!

I agree 100%
1st time I was told the gospel
(When I had ears to hear)
It was in a rehab, and this man I almost wonder if he wasn't one of God's honestly.
But he told me, everytime you seek God, say Jesus start talking something will happen to dis......
Fire truck goes off and just sits there...
Tries to continue, ambulance goes off.
I'm not joking when I tell you everytime he tried something happened to distract us from talking about this exactly.
This was also in arms reach of what the church service was yesterday.
Thanks Brother
Love ya
Mr Comfort, I have doubted a concept of evil.
Painful stimulations are inflicted on wicked people in Hell for everlasting period, they have no seconds for sleeping as bible says, but no one in Heaven feel empathy for the suffering people.
Everlasting contempt remains for eternity, everlasting torture continues forever.
This is humanity in the future. Our universe is nothing more than an empire which was governed by an everlasting contempt, God. And Satan is an insane murderer who love torturing all creatures.
On the earth all we are stabbed by Satan, on the new earths some of us will become loving creatures filled with everlasting contempt against others in Hell.
You guys should go around and talk more about abortion.
In the Gehenna, wicked people won’t forget memories on the earth, foods, communication with friends, camping with their parents, hugging with others, water, views of sunset, shopping at local grocery stores, moments of births of their children, classes of colleges, whispers of wind, their birthday parties…sweet breathes.
Anyway they are tortured by fire and brimstone for everlasting period, saints almost forget interactions with them on the earth because Heaven is the most beautiful place, so God(holy lamb) and saints can torture wicked people without any empathies.
Hmm, your doing great preaching b ut I think the satan think has done this / distraction bit/ when you mention the gospel might be somewhat overstated. Some people will be distrated becuase they are being challenged..its that simple/ and possibly, in other cases there might be a satanic element that distracts people at this point/ I donr know but its definitely possible.
I'm losing my eyesight in both eyes (lost the left eye completely) when you said "God knows the atoms in the middle of your eyeball because he made it" I felt an overwhelming emotion, I cried. I realized I haven't been trusting God. God has a purpose for me and if I trust him I will not lose my sight, at least not spiritually, which is worth more than anything. Thank you for thisv ideo.
Update: since this video I've put 💯 percent trust in God, and rededicated my life to His will. So many blessings have been upon me but the best... I went for my monthly injections in my eyes, (been going monthly, shots both eyes for over a year) and the Dr told me we can move to every other month, Dr says the blood vessels are shrinking, he said first time he's noticed any change since my first visit! Praise God!! 🙏
Edit (again) thanks everyone for the kind words and prayers. The BEST part of all of this is I see I've touched 238 people that have liked my comment. That makes it ALL worthwhile. The adversary may have tried to use my blindness/struggles for evil but God is using it for good. Hopefully many more will be touched by my testimony. God bless!
@J LH no I haven't. I will definitely check it out though. Thank you. ❤️
Pray the word! 1 Peter 2:24. “and He Himself bore our sins in His body on the cross, so that we might die to sin and live to righteousness; for by His wounds you were healed.”
I trusted God that a 1 Peter 2:24 healing would happen for me and yesterday I woke up and was healed of my learning disability and processing errors! I can finally process what I read and hear with ease :) God has healed me of my sexual trauma, anemia and many other things. I'm trusting Him that He will open my eyes one day. I'm not blind but my vision is pretty bad. Jesus gave sight to the blind so I KNOW one day I'll open my eyes and have 20/20 vision. If you trust God and His word, He will bring it to pass

I was starting to share the gospel with a young man I work with in a restaurant (we're both hosts), and right as I was about to explain the cross and what Jesus did, we got really busy. I hope to work with him again soon so I can fully explain it.
Excellent that you are taking the time even on your job to share the gospel.
My mom was sharing it at a butcher store. And the ladies that were cutting the meats were listening. Until one of their big knifes "slipped" and she almost cut a finger of the coworker next to her, she got really mad at that (I mean, she almost lost a finger). And my mom explained to them "oh look, this happens when u share the gospel"
Find time after work and wxplain it there 9r when you are eating
Weird how that always seems to happen… I’ve experienced it myself.
It happened to me where I was talking to a street preacher and all of a sudden 2 couples male & female independent of each other started arguing extremely loud. One argument was across the street the 2nd argument was on my side of the street. That was a crazy night. The yelling was so loud from these 2 couples I feared it could’ve turned violent. I’m glad Ray showed that verse. Take care everyone!
I really hope she gets saved. She genuinely seemed open-minded to what Ray was saying to her. I always love seeing humility in unbelievers like her when they are given the Gospel message.
Yes, such a sweet girl!!!
Amen!
Amen!! Me too!!
I wanna debate this guy soooo much. Can I change him to be more open-minded? Everyone he talks to is clueless in belief, I want to see him debate someone with some form of knowing
If any one likes this. Id like to shatter your world for the better. This guy is good at what he does. But it's so edited
My husband and I faced this too... His Grandad was really close to passing so we wanted to share the gospel with him (when his Grandad was healthy he was not open at all, he will literally take you out of his house if you ever tried to speak about God or Jesus), it was thru a phone call since we don't live in the same state, the line broke not one but 3 times just the moment we started sharing the good news. Finally after several attempts we were able to share the gospel with him and he received Jesus. He passed shortly after that. But we as family can remain confident and have peace that he is now truly resting.
AMEN PRAISE GOD!!!!!!!!!!!!
Edit: ya...that might've been a lil much just got happy cuz i'm happ everytime a soul is saved. :)
WOW! look at God.
Glory be to God
Jesus always wins... Hallelujah.... Amen in Jesus precious name!
@@theChristfollower2 , NEVER too much, when we're praising God for the salvation of another person! THANK YOU, JESUS, HALLELUJAH!!!
There have been times where I’ve been evangelizing over the phone or in a game on the voice chat and the person’s internet goes out. I immediately pray for them because that’s a demonic attack and God will deliver them if we have faith. The times where I haven’t prayed, they never come back. The times that I pray, they come right back. That’s the beauty of God
When I first started recognizing the immense power of prayer, I had been showing my children (under 10yo) the video of Ron Wyatt finding the Ark of the Covenant.
Internet started loading, we reset and prayed and it came right back 2 or 3 times always came back.
Usually when the internet does that through the TV, it's done for the day.
We asked that if God wanted us to see the video, he would make sure we could!
Kids have been big believers in prayer ever since!
@@cheerfulmouse amen. We should be the example to them. They should know God because they see God constantly in our lives. I thank God every time I think about my future when I have kids because I know for a fact that they will witness miracles and healings and deliverances and they will pray and watch what God does time and again. It brings so much joy. We have the most important job. I’m so glad you led by example that way! That’s awesome to hear
I was demon possessed during covid lockdown and a pastor was teying to deliver me through video call. The call kept disconnecting and we lost internet. That almost never happens. Except when theres a typhoon. There was no weather issue.

A coworker asked me yesterday why I became a Christian and as soon as I began my sentence to answer, we were interrupted. I began my sentence probably 5 times before I could get out a 30 second version of the gospel. Praise God for the opportunity! Let us remember to pray during interruptions for God to intervene! Holy Spirit, open our eyes to see who you want us to reach out to in the name of Jesus.
Eugh, keep it to yourself
She’s sooo sweet and humble ❤ praying she seeks God and becomes born again 🙏🏼
Honestly. Went to Catholic schools for 12 years. I’ve heard the same scripture over and over again…. But it wasn’t until recently that I learned what it meant and how to live it.
Nothing to so with religion. GOD is Spirit and they that worship him worship in spirit and truth. Too many Christians dwell on sin. And they don't see the Light..denying it..revelation 2 READ IT
I swear I can literally recall this happening hundreds of times throughout my life when people are about to be told the Gospel. I remember a few years ago on a Sunday morning getting into my car to go to church for the first time and my car would not start and the car was new. I walked to church even though I was late and when I came back the car started just fine.
We're not to swear.
@@khrystalkhoury62 too late. All Men are sinners and thus I sinned.
@@khrystalkhoury62 yea thank you for letting him know a lot of us swear unintentionally but we have to do our best not to swear
@@jugogaming Yup. Just remember that you do so not to attain righteousness. But because you are reborn righteous, you do as such.
@@khrystalkhoury62 From what I understand we are not to swear on things, we should just say yes or no. Let your no be your no and your yes be your yes. We're not supposed to swear by an oath, or on our lives or on God or anything else. But to say "I swear" in this context is like saying "I definitely remember this." I think this person is just being honest. Or would it be better or change the meaning of the statement at all to literally say "I definitely remember this" instead? Genuinely, is it a sin to say "I swear" outside of the context of an oath or trying to convince someone of a yes or no answer? And if so, is it a sin to make a promise?
“Again you have heard that it was said to those of old, ‘You shall not swear falsely, but shall perform to the Lord what you have sworn.’ But I say to you, Do not take an oath at all, either by heaven, for it is the throne of God, or by the earth, for it is his footstool, or by Jerusalem, for it is the city of the great King. And do not take an oath by your head, for you cannot make one hair white or black. Let what you say be simply ‘Yes’ or ‘No’; anything more than this comes from evil.
Matthew 5:33-37
I always find it interesting when people vehemently deny there is a God, but if you ask them, "Do you believe in satan?" They JUMP to the chance to say, "Oh, absolutely." I'm praying for people!
I know. I don't get it. When I was 13 and my grandma was murdered I got angry and turned from God. He allowed THE DARK to torment me for years until I cried out to Him!! I finally realized that if the darkness is real, then so is the opposite which is light and God and truth and the Way. Hallelu-YAH. But it baffles me too, to be sure. 🤔🤷♀️😭
@@Karen_Busch AMEN! Thank you for sharing your powerful testimony! God bless you!
I would ask, "How did Satan come into being without God?" I've never found a Satan-believer who doesn't believe in God. That is quite the enigma.
@@Horustheoriginalgod The demonstrable evidence is mere existence and the miracle it took for you and I to even be alive to have this exchange, in the first place.

I have never come across an atheist who believes in satan. Not a single time.

I used to be agnostic, but over time I've accepted Jesus in to my life. My biggest challenge with reading the Bible is how difficult it can be to digest. Every message has so many philosophical implications it can take days, or weeks to wrap your head around it. For example, something like "Trust the Lord" seems like a simple message, however, even those few words have such broad implications, they take you on a life long journey to full understand.
the verse by verse ministries app a changed my life. His verse by verse explanations are mind blowing.
It takes a lifetime to totally get it. The Holy Spirit will help you if you ask Him too.
I needed to read this. I love reading but, have a hard time following the verses back and forth. Which makes understanding the bible difficult for me. I live my life in belief of My Creator, but walking the steps with Jesus correctly is hard..
And we have all eternity to understand too. I am so thankful you have Jesus!!!!
Can you elaborate on what you mean by this?
Wow, that is so creepy, makes me reliase how the Devil tries with all of us
Yup the devil is everywhere
What's scarier is how he's been around so long that he knows all the ways people will respond.
The devil is a powerful being. Don't forget he was once God's top angel. But he doesent compare to the power of christ tho.
The devil is a liar! Always has been, always will be. God bless you Ray. God bless Living Waters🙏🏾❤
well not always. he was once Lucifer a beautiful angel of God before he fell into sin.
This is the first time i’ve ever heard someone not say they are a good person in one of Ray’s interviews.
She’s not self righteous she acknowledges her mistakes and shortcomings that’s step 1 in self awareness.
She has a spirit of humility, always a good thing. I hope and pray she takes the next steps in faith and comes to know and trust Christ as her Lord.
@John BlackBerry no one is good. Only the Father is
@John BlackBerry maybe to the world's standards
Before I was saved I knew I was a bad person. I knew I had an evil heart because I desired the wrong and dark things in life and I also pursued some of them. Which I hated myself for. I also knew that I had two pathways in life if I hadn't chosen to accept God; first one is to take my own life and if I chose not to that I would have most likely ended up in prison.
I have never noticed this. Whenever I've evangelized, I have rarely got someone to stand around long enough to hear the gospel. Downtown DC is a hard place to evangelize.
I worked in DC the government printing office. I know it's so hard in DC.

I agree, this is more cos of their prejudice towards scripture than the devil distracting them.

While I'm watching this I am sitting alone in a quiet corner at school. At 7:17 something happend to me. You started talking about the gospel after having explained how you will get distracted, and at 7:17 two guys came out from a door screaming LOUD. This distracted me so much I put down my phone and paused for a second. It sure is true what you said.
I think the Lord sent you to her and her to you. She really needed you in that moment. Thank you for all you do.
I noticed the same thing when I share the Gospel with people. When I start mentioning the Gospel, they tune out and start wiggling and moving.
Yeah same here! Or a defiant look intensely wow now I see why! 😯
Yea I have noticed that too
I probably wiggled at some point when I was agnostic new ager. Now I’m a newer believer in Jesus Christ.
I did not believe satan existed before and was turned off by Christians. Why? Bc I believed what the msm showed me (the cult owns the media)
The n w o has been doing one massive smear campaign by infiltrating churches all over the world. Russ Dizdar exposed this too. It’s rampant. I hope more Christians start using spiritual warfare against the infiltration in their churches. 🙏🏻😇
Literally 💀 the adversary at work
@@Horustheoriginalgod there is no point in saying there is no God unless u can prove He doesn’t exist
Though she did get distracted, it sure does seem like The Holy Spirit brought her back in line with hearing the message by the end. Really nice video, once again, Ray. ✝️
True! It happens all the time. One time I mention the name Jesus Christ and the woman voice totally changed and she said quote: I DONT WANT TO HEAR THAT NAME! All my hairs on neck and arms stood up.
I've constantly battled with sin and it seems the more I fight the harder things get for me it is always in my eyes as effects of doing good and how bad opportunities become present. I can honestly say it is amazing that I got to see this video today and I truly hope all get better before time is up in Jesus name thank you so much Amen!!! 🙏
Freedom comes from surrender to God not by promising Him that you'll try to do better. Surrender to Jesus who gives us The Holy Spirit to overcome sin.
As a friendly reminder, a reason it gets harder is your fighting and trying to do the work. As Believers what we need to do is submit to God and trust in Him fully that He would correct us and purify us and through His Spirit, turn from our sin and back to God. I struggled so much, "I" am trying to stop, "I" have to make myself not do this, I need to use this to not do this. And that's why it doesn't get easier is because we are relying on ourselves to fix our sin and we cant. We need to fully rely and trust in God.
You should try fasting it doesn't have to be for long, try one day . Remember to pray during this time and ask God for help. God knows you're battling. Never give up. God bless you .
We al struggle but stop trying…. Give it all to Christ… he’s the one that sheds all the idols and all the sin from your life. He does it in my life all the time. Only when I rely on Him.
Same. I've always said it's because the harder you try to escape sin, the devil tries to make you stay in sin. Satan doesn't want you to do good so when you're trying to escape your life gets harder but don't give up& keep fighting & you can make it through
At first everytime I tried to read my Bible I would fall asleep, now I try to read at least one chapter per day and I watch a UA-cam video about that chapter, it does help.
But I can also remember this happened to me when some one was evangelizing to me. I could actually feel gods presence but didn't understand and got distracted by the enemy...that's ok, the person preaching to me planted a mustard seed. Years later I can see these are one of many moments Jesus is calling out to me. I finally heard him, Amen 🙏Praise you lord Jesus , king of king's ❤️
Very encouraging. Planted seeds for many people and felt sad at the rejection and lost friends but your testimony gives hope for the few chosen who finally see and come to Christ Jesus. Must continue to reach out. Peace
thats right, even if it doesn't have instant impact, the bible is clear that a seed has been planted.
praise God!
The Devil ALWAYS tries to distract those we share Jesus with. It's like Murphy's Law.
May she be blessed with the gift of salvation 🙏🙏
Oh my goodness, this just brought back to my remembrance when I first came to Christ Jesus and I was super excited about all that I was learning.
I tried MULTIPLE TIMES to talk about the Bible, Jesus and everything else I was learning with my friend (who considers herself to be a Christian) and she would get "busy" or distracted in some type of way, every single time.
I was so disappointed because I thought we were going to grow in Christ together 😟
Can we grow in Christ together?
👉🏼👈🏼
Wow, the enemy really hates us learning the gospel. I remember when I first starting walking with Jesus my sister in law was praying over me and my eyes started shaking violently and uncontrollably. After the prayer she mentioned her eyes started shaking after a bit. Of course I told her that was happening to me the whole time. Weird experience. God’s love prevails. What Jesus did on the cross is above it all. I pray for this woman to really believe in the gospel. Thank you for sharing with people, you encourage me to do so too.
She was such a sweet girl. Screamed purity.
I pray Jesus comes back to day 💯🙏❤️
Yes sir!
Your prayer is answered! Jesus is present in each and every believer. We are His hands, and His feet and we need to be working like Ray is.
God bless you, Ray, you bold, loving, humble and wonderful servant of Christ! I praise God for his goodness and for sending faithful servants like you to the rest of us. Thank you Ray for staying so faithful and for boldly proclaiming the Gospel 🙏🏻❤️
He desires you to be His faithful servant as well. He wants you to be bold, loving, humble, and wonderful in reaching the world. Ray can't do this all on his own. We all must deny ourselves and carry our cross
I love her humble heart. Holy Spirit I pray her heat is prepared to receive JESUS SALVATION
Seeing Satan’s will manifest so blatantly is actually terrifying. May she and all the others who are blinded by the adversary find Jesus & salvation through Him.
O I liked her. She seemed sincere. I got the chills over hearing the gospel 😊🙌🏼❤️
The text message is what got me. I swear when I listen to worship music, and the spirit starts taking over, this happens everytime!!! It's always a commercial about carnal desires of this world, or a mental health commercial giving the worst advice instead of directing us to God. The devil is trying his hardest...
My greatest happiness in life comes from following Jesus Christ our Lord and Savior. So I’m keeping faith in him. As a single mother things tend to be difficult on me. My husband passed years ago so I’m alone. I’m overwhelmed because both of my children are autistic and non verbal. I’m struggling trying to support them and myself. I lost my job as a social worker at Forsyth because I declined the vaccine. I declined because of my pre existing health condition lupus and heart disease. I was denied my medical/religious exemption. I wish I could go back to the hospital but the mandate is still in place for hospitals that participate in Medicare and Medicaid. I’m waitressing and I’m so thankful to be working again, but I’m not making nearly enough to make ends meet. I’m so discouraged and ready to give up. But God keeps me going. I have been put down and mocked over my situation by fellow christian’s. It hurts my heart. I’m still struggling putting groceries in my refrigerator, and paying bills. Every month is a struggle, to not end up on the streets. It’s embarrassing and overwhelming but I have faith God will provide. He HAS THIS FAR. He hasn’t forsaken me! WITH GOD ALL THINGS ARE POSSIBLE! I BELIEVE!
May you and yours
Be BLESSED 🙏
I hope you have applied for disability benefits for your children, you can also receive food assistance and help paying your rent, just have to apply.
Wow -- let this be a call to be vigilant in our prayers and aware of Satan's attack! He does NOT like what you're doing, Ray. Keep marching forward, contending for the gospel!! 🙏
Amin!
Amen, so encouraging👏🏼🕊️💯
It's incredible to see how awake and focus this man is, he uses the word of God and not his own and that's why he is so effective bringing fruit, he truly is attached to the vine.
he edits his videos, chooses how to present it, and also adds the music to encourage " moments" .. the same can be done with all religions, portray it so it seems "gloryfull " or "good and kind" or whatever...
the truth is: zero evidence that any god exists, 1 religion devided over +100.000 denominations, religious wars, hell for all those that do not accept jesus, etc...
@@mekavio8231 Jesus is the only name that got me delivered, i wasn’t even a believer before. just ask anyone who’s been in a cult or the new age deception. Jesus is Lord, keep seeking the truth and you will find. God bless you friend
@💖AGM indeed, for that type of freedom much have died... being a protestant during 1643 in germany would have you killed, or being a muslim in spain during 1458, or being an atheist in most religious fanatic countries.. but aside that, that is not how religion works, you ONLY get saved if you devote your life to it, and follow the laws .. it sees all that do not think as teached in the religion as " enemy" or "false" or at best "misguided and in urgent need for rescue"... that goes for muslims, christians, hindus, buddists, etc...
Q: do you follow your religious laws with ALL of your heart ?
@@daughterofzion1083 well, i have no proof that he was the messiah, the jews werent saved by him... in fact , it made them be the victim of hate for centuries after jesus died.. till today.. those miracles were just stories, you eiter believe them or not, all religions have miracles, you don't believe them , right ? well guess what, all those pagans from other religions don't believe your miracles are true.. seems like an stalemate... without evidence, no progress..
If jesus was born out of a virgin, just wondering, how would his DNA have looked under a microscope ? 50 % mary and 50 %.. holy spirit ??? seriously, wondering how 50% devine DNA would have looked... science would like to investigate the blood of someone that is half human, half god...
@@mekavio8231 Romans 3: 20 NLT: For no one can ever be made right with God by doing what the law commands. The law simply shows us how sinful we are.
Romans 3: 29 After all, is God the God of the Jews only? Isn’t he also the God of the Gentiles? Of course he is. 30 There is only one God, and he makes people right with himself only by faith, whether they are Jews or Gentiles.[j] 31 Well then, if we emphasize faith, does this mean that we can forget about the law? Of course not! In fact, only when we have faith do we truly fulfill the law.
This was eye-opening… Ray just gave us video proof of the spiritual warfare described in Ephesians 6:12. It’s as if we could see the demons trying to steal away these souls… Let us boldly and urgently proclaim the gospel to this dying world!
Yea ikr it was crazy to watch
She seems like a really sweet and gentle soul. I hope her heart is opened to God and she accepts his offer of salvation! ♥️✝️🙏
Jesus Christ is alive. I am an ex-transgender who have been saved by grace. Alleluia!
That was beautiful. Her joyful smile at the end said it all.✝
This has happened to me too everytime I share the gospel to people close to me 💔 but I thank God that He has power over the enemy because somehow God just works through all the snares the enemy tries to put into the minds of the listeners.
The way you speak so kindly, with just the most gentlest authority, is what I’m learning from you. Will you pray with me that God uses me for His glory? I am open to receive all of his lessons and guidance. My heart grieves for those I’ve met and left without sharing the good news.

if God is gentle hitler is a saint and satan is blameless
Praise Yahweh. I am walking daily in the spirit of Christ Jesus. God is so wonderful.
Ray, your talks with all those young people blow my mind! I live near Bern in 🇨🇭 and wish I had some starter-kits like yours available in German! Tomorrow morning I will head for the Christian bookshop first thing to search for gospel material! I am so eager to evangelize again after having been hindered to leave my house for so long (due to a couple of strokes). Yesterday, it was a beautiful sunny but cool Sunday, I went for a long walk with the Rollator. Guess what? I kept meeting so many people that I eventually made it home some 5 hours later (very hungry but totally SATISFIED!) I felt as if I had just been raised from the „temporal grave“. I INSTANTLY KNEW: This is my calling! This is where I belong! Out in the streets of my village where the people are whom God brings along my path. Would you believe that I was fully prepared and even longing to „go home to be with the Lord“ after the first stroke (7 years ago) as a „shut-in“, so thankful for the I-pad as the only window into the outside world, rejoicing over sooooo much time all of a sudden? Then…..some 6 months ago, I was surprised by another medium stroke, while I lost my speech and mobility for 48 hours. Why am I telling you all this? SINCE YESTERDAY only I am pleading with God NOT to take me home just yet; I MUST go out and share the gospel with as many lost souls as possible, as long as there is time and opportunity.
THANK YOU RAY FOR YOUR LOVE FOR JESUS!! You are a wonderful inspiration to me! THANK YOU JESUS FOR YOUR GOSPEL! ❤🙏
I will be praying for you Ursula and that God directs you. I will pray for your healing too ✝️🕊🌼
That was so touching a testamony that it brought tears to my eyes. I feel the same way " don't take home just yet; I MUST go out and share the gospel with as many lost souls as possible" I lost everything dear to me in this life and including my 14 year old daughter to bone cancer. But I want to live to preach the Gospel. So I moved to Bali, Indonesia where I go out and speak to several people in a day and explain the disease and then give the cure.
I hope you get many chances to get out there and preach the gospel before you go be with the Lord. and if you cant get out and about talk to anyone and everyone you can where you are. God bless you
@@Ms.noelp453 Thank You Noel! You want to pray for me? Then listen carefully: For 7 years (since the first stroke) I neglected my mother tongue, returning to English altogether. Forced to a shut-in life, reading the Bible and watching videos, thinking, even dreaming in E, eventually my command of Swiss-German deteriorated. But NOW, since I live in Switzerland and need the language badly here, I struggle with both the articulation and word-finding! And for this very great need I dare ask you to pray! Would you? Will you? Please! THANK YOU SO MUCH, dear Noel!🙏❤️
God bless you and may God bring you lots of people to share His Good News 🙏🏻
"For we do not wrestle against flesh and blood, but against principalities, against powers, against the rulers of the darkness of this age, against spiritual hosts of wickedness in the heavenly places."- Ephesians 6:12
"But even if our gospel is veiled, it is veiled to those who are perishing, whose minds the god of this age has blinded, who do not believe, lest the light of the gospel of the glory of Christ, who is the image of God, should shine on them."- 2 Corinthians 4:3-4 NKJV
Brother Ray, I am so glad to hear this because when I explained the gospel some people get distracted. It was disappointing. I had given them the bad news and when I give the good news, satan comes in and distracts me.
I feel support watching and learning that we all have encountered this. This motivates me more to reach the lost and make sure they really do understand the Gospel of grace. God bless you all!
I was distracted 4 times while watching this but got through it. Distraction is real
Me too, but I’m distracted 300 times with anything I try to focus on. Seems like I’m in a constant state of being tested 😅
I just push through though, even if it takes me a hot minute to get there lol.
I’ve seen the same thing happen when sharing the Gospel, a phone rings, a baby cries, a noisy car goes by, it’s uncanny. So hard to bring the conversation back around again.
Reminds me of me talking to my aunt TODAY! I’ve been trying to talk to her for a couple of years now even my husband. Well she’d just gotten back into town, after being gone for about a month, and text me a couple of days ago to let me know she’d made it back. Since she hadn’t seen my daughter in a while I thought I’d drop by and surprise her. The whole time she held my daughter and although played with her she’d talk to me. Well as I began to talk to her about Christ she got very distracted with Jedidiah (2 Samuel 12:25) although she wasn’t doing anything. Satan wants nothing more than for people to go to hell eternally separated from God. It was so grieving to note apart from Christ she’d go there.
I've had the habit of nodding off while in church. I'd go pumped and full of energy only to start battling to stay awake once service started.
Me too lol I think we need deliverance
Its because all the nonsentical stuff like the singing goes on for too long. I just want to hear the message and reflect on it, the singing and standing and group prayer can go away for me personally
@@ChooseLife.YourLife it’s not just singing it’s worshiping and giving praise to God

The enemy is definitely mad and trying to distract! I relate to this video with the same experiences. Thanks for sharing Ray. I’m also sorry about your dog. You are such a blessing to my life with your videos. 🙏
So good to be reminded of. I have found lately this is true when it comes to Christians as well; he wants us to stay distracted. I've seen believers who either were on the verge of making strides in their faith or who are kept from even getting there because they have been kept distracted. Too many demands and enticements in their career and academic aspirations, and they don't have time to read books that can help them understand biblical truth. In one recent situation I had a friend who is on a path of sin, and I kept trying to warn her of the danger she was in, gave her resources, found a person who was able and willing to mentor her, and she knew she needed the help. But she was kept too busy to think, and everything she had available to help her grow got pushed out and forgotten about after every serious talk we had about the issues. Now her heart has become very hard and she is becoming more set in her ways, because she did not stop and reconsider her choices when she could have; she's gone from distracted to resistant, and it didn't take long either. Her faith has become smothered by the desires for good things she is after.
My evidence study bible just came in the mail today!!!!!!!❤❤❤ please pray for me that I may get to know God more! I would love to go out to evangelize and be used as a vessel that speaks life and the word of God to everyone!
Amen 🙏🏼 praying for you
She’s one of the few people that admitted that she’s not a good person and I really loved that she was very honest with whatever answers she said
There have been a couple of occasions where I was witnessing in a crowded area, and there would be at least one person who'd go around making a bunch of noise or yelling out things, drawing attention to themselves. It can be frustrating, but it can also be encouraging, like "hey, we're actually making waves here!"
I have experienced the exact same phenomenon every time. Ray Comfort is expert in gently but firmly keeping things on track of course having prayed in advance ...
i love that you share your interactions with people when u share the gospel, thank you for encouraging other believers
never shares Leviticus 20:13 to anyone... he cherrypicks his favourite verses, and ignores those he doesn't like or don't agree with.. that isn't impressive and that is NOT how religion works..
@@mekavio8231 he has made a video condemning homosexuality, and goes against many other things that he doesnt like talking about. God wants a relation not a religion.
Well done brother. All glory to our king the Lord Jesus Christ!
Thanks for your undying devotion to the Lord God.
What a beauty.. this young lady tugged my heart .. praise the Lord for His opening the door for her .. 🙏🏻
The same thing happened with my aunt who is gay. We were going through the 10 commandments and she stated that she was a good person and that’s why she would make it to heaven. I shared how the Bible said there was none good no not one. After that, I started to go through the law and her son came and interrupted and she said she didn’t want to talk anymore. 😭
Ray you are doing an amazing work by spreading the gospel. If I don’t meet you here on earth I’ll see you in Heaven.🙌🏼🙏🏽❤️
I’m always impressed by Ray. Witnesses with grace and mercy, and patiently presents the truth. Love your style. I admire your courage. It’s guys like you who make the world a better place. Thanks 🙏 keep up the good work.
Great video, I have seen the distractions as well. Its good to see someone power through to get them the important information that God wants them to see.
I also believe some of these people do not want to hear Ray to begin with but for a free gift card they will pretend to listen. Ray knows this of course but he is hoping to plant even the smallest seed. it is incredibly rude to not listen to someone who is giving his whole attention to just you. Plus you agreed by taking the gift card.
Atleast she's self aware and humble. I sure know I can be a bad person sometimes too
This is so true!
I remember when I was in my teens a friend of mine came to visit me and he wanted to hang out, drink and party. But I told him I am no longer into that lifestyle that I found something better and I told him to wait for me.
He waited outside in his car and when I came out I brought the Bible. His face was fearful and he didn’t want to look at it. He kept looking somewhere else He said to put it away! Put it away!
I thought it was weird of him to be afraid of the Bible and I told him calm down & bumped it on his head.
I told him I wasn’t hanging out tonight so he left. He texted me later and told me that Jesus was real and he remembers his mother would take him to church he said something happened when I bumped the Bible on his head. He said he he felt lighter and easier in spirit and talked to me about God.
At around 3am he told me the devil was strong. And he was struggling. I tried telling him about Jesus but he stopped responding to me.
I pray that He is okay wherever he is at and that he returned his life to the Lord.
That’s why we’re all distracted and we can’t focus because the Devil is all about trickery! Praying for myself and everyone that will be tested and distracted by evil 👿! Trust in Jesus Christ and Amen 🙏🏼! She’s going to be ok ⛑️⛑️ Jesus is my Helmet ⛑️
This makes a lot of sense, when I’ve tried to share the gospel my friend gets distracted, irritated or something happens to intervene. Do you think this is getting worse as the time of Jesus return approaches?
I am part of an evangelizing ministry through horses. One day right when I was sharing the gospel and said the words “ Jesus Christ” a horse busted free from his tie down and trampled me. This has never happened before and there was plenty of ways the horse could have traveled but he went straight at me. I ended up with a concussion and bruised bones…I am certain it was an attack from satan. I have always had a fear of horses but I love this ministry so much that I work with the horses to spread the gospel. My issue is that it really set me back in my fear and why would God allow that to happen and not intervening. The Lord could have intervened. I am still going strong in this ministry but boy has it set me back in my fear,
No matter what happens to us even unto death, it's what's best for us. God knows what's best because He's Sovereign! If you can come to believe this with all your heart your fear will subside. Don't fear man (or horses) who can only kill the body, but fear God who can kill the body and send the soul to hell.
The Lord Said be Strong and Courageous,do not be Afraid or Dismayed for the Lord God is with you whenever you go. Satan uses Fear and Doubt to Stop you from sharing Gospel. Don't be Afraid Sister in Christ the Lord God Jesus will Fight For you Don't be Afraid of Satan attack when Temptation comes Satanic is Angry or Afraid
I had such a great epiphany when whilst watching a sermon of the late Derek Prince, he taught that fear is an evil Spirit, rebuke fear and tell it to leave in Jesus name and I swear ever since if I feel fear creeping in, I command the spirit of fear to leave in Jesus name and I claim peace from the Holy Spirit and that is life changing!
Maybe God did intervene or you might have been hurt much worse. It's not easy being a Christian but you have to have faith and trust in the Lord. Even the writers in the bible didn't have an easy life and suffered many times but they knew their suffering was nothing compared to the eternal life God promises us. Hang in there Laura and keep praying..take care..GBU
Praise the Lord you were protected. I am a horse woman and i’m really interested to hear about the horse ministry? Could you share some info as this js something i’d like to do in the UK. God bless 🙏🏻
Keep preaching. God bless you Ray Comfort❤️🙏🏾
Way to go, Ray! God was there with her inside you. It looked like she was lost through the distractions, but when you finished, she had heard the good news. She had hope, then she smiled when you gave her the Gospel of John. We may see her again.
That has happened to me so many times right on the brink of the prayer!
I have been watching other videos without interruption. Then when you came to the gospel, 1st the dogs came to me wanting my attention. Then someone came up to me asking me questions. I backed up the video 3 times till I was able to hear the word. Satan really doesn't like it.
You are so blessed Ray in leading people to Jesus and showing them the real truth.
Thank you. What a sweet soul. Save her , LORD. ✝️❤️🌍
Oh this blessed me...I wish I was this good at witnessing, but God has given me the right words when i stumble. Praise Lord Jesus for you!
The common "eye darting" to see who's watching is indicative of pride. I've been there in similar situations, but always knew that was a tactic used by the enemy to distract me from important information. Got to the point that when I feel those thoughts arise, I engage and listen even more intensively.
Same thing happend to a group of kids. A pastor and I were sharing the gospel to and this group who wanted to dedicate their lives to Jesus when behind them a wasp nest and scared them off.
"I need your attention" so powerful
Thanks for another great video, Ray! ❤ As I was scrolling through the comments I realized that this is also me, in the sense that I can be horribly distracted by You Tube. I don’t want to give it up because your videos and so much other great Christian content. So, I vowed to only watch your latest video and get off the phone. Instead I got into the comments. But that turned out to be a good thing! It was while reading the comments I made the connection to my mindless scrolling to the distraction of the devil. I have been praying about my wasting time and this is an answer to my prayer. God is so good to us!! 🤗
@Simon Tilbey Yes, Simon you were very helpful! I appreciate you taking time to respond. I confess that I have fallen back into it, especially in the evenings. I go to watch one little video, get sucked in, then later “snap out of it” feeling disappointed l wasted precious time. I am going to put you on my prayer list, and pray God will strengthen us both! 🤗🙏🏻❤️
Omg that’s awesome that you gave her the book of John. I remember the first time I actually sat down and studied the book for John, I cried. You don’t really understand just how profound and fascinating that book really is until you take your time REALLY reading it.
She is listening intently.
I pray she comes to know You Lord God Jesus and lives with You as her Lord and Savior for the rest of her life.
This happened to me twice on Monday when talking with 2 coworkers. Another coworker came in and started talking really loud taking the attention of the other 2. It made me laugh, and I said the same thing you're saying here....Satan doesn't want the gospel to be shared .
_I'm nearing 65, born and raised in a Gospel preaching and teaching church. Repented, accepted Jesus as my personal Savior, Baptized and have committed my life to Him. I said all that to say this, I still get so emotional when I hear the teachings of Jesus' love for us. His sacrifice for us.🙏 I guess I thought after thirty+ years I would be like so many other Christians that I see that can speak of His Goodness in a calm and collected manner_
_And everytime, and I mean EVERYTIME I listen to this Ministry and see the expressions on the faces of those being enlightened, I get choked up, the tears begin to swell and then the tears begin to flow 😇 It's like I'm cleansed all over again...each and everytime and for this, I thank you_
Amen Amen 🙏♥
Amen, a new 22 year old Christian here and I rarely cry about anything. Put me in church though and I can’t help but to cry hearing the truth or singing praise to Him.
This happens to me also at work when I try to explain why things are happening the way they are. I would just say to myself, “they don’t want to know,” but maybe it is Satan distracting them. I’m going to keep this in mind from now on when I try to share the Gospel.
My heart breaks every time Satan is successful at distracting someone! I just pray that the seed God planted will be watered and will grow in the future!
Man! Your analogies are so dead on, so precise good work. God bless you for spreading the word. 🙏
Lord, bless her with wisdom. Amen
I was planning on talking to an old man to share the gospel as I was walking on a path next to him, but long story short, he was counting his steps! I said, “oh I’ll leave you be then :)” and we split up on the bike path. I’ve never shared the gospel before but I’m getting this welling up feeling where I just can’t keep going day to day without spreading the gospel. Anyone else feel like that?
Yes
Yes! Glory to God the most high!!!! ✝️
Yes! Sharing God’s message burned like a fire in Jeremiah’s bones. Shouldn’t it burn like a fire in ours?
YES!!! I am praying for you and pray for me too! I have been praying for a partner to go out and share the gospel just for an hour or two a week. IT IS SUCH A JOY to watch other Christians faithful in sharing the gospel, and it helps me with my spiritual depression over not being able to find a partner. I've gone by myself a few times, and the LORD SHOWS UP! I want to share this joy with another Christian together....to me that IS THE ABUNDANT LIFE, when we live out the Lord and seek the lost, using the gifts He gave us so that NONE PERISH. I have been really drifting lately and Ray helps me to remember to keep the faith and keep on trusting the Lord no matter how hard this trial is. God bless you as you listen to the Holy Spirit and SPEAK the truth in love!
Yes, As believers and as rescued sinners, Many survivors of Satan’s snares are wanting to share the good news that Jesus Rescues us from Satan and sin’s destruction in our lives. Enjoy the freedom and know that God is with you when you share the good news. Speak from a compassionate heart and you can’t go wrong. Hold every thought captive so that Satan does not speak through you and confuse people. For not all of us are perfect in our communication skills. We must strive to learn and write down what God is speaking to us to speak to others. Keep in mind also that if demons try to trip you up in your speaking then hold your tongue and pray. I hope this helps for you to step out when the moment comes. Because it is in the moment that the HOLY spirit works and not on our own time schedule. That, my friend, is probably the biggest lesson I had to learn, as a School teacher, since we were all usually on a schedule. It is not on our time but on HIS time that God can make miracles happen right in front of your eyes at any given moment. Do not fear, for God is always near. Just listen for HIS voice and know that it is to do good, to heal, to give, to help in some small way, to share a testimony, to ask if there’s anything they need, to declare that God wants to give to ALL people who want HIM as their Lord, or to hand them a small New Testament book so they can start to read for themselves. People usually cannot understand the Old Testament and it’s overwhelming to give them a full Bible. You have to consider nonbelievers as going through kindergarten or elementary in knowing a HOLY God and KNOWING Jesus Fully. Most people do not. Understanding their position in life, you will begin to see yourself more as a gentle teacher like Jesus was. But you must let the Holy Spirit speak through you rather than speak from your own mind hastily. Ask and you will receive this wisdom. It is priceless.
I could literally see the transformation and relief in her life ! so beautiful it's like the Holy Spirit entered her body ! Amen
I love the simplicity of your presentation of the Gospel. So well put together, and it is full of truth in a non-judgement factual way. Love it.
Not RFecognizing, that he is STILL preaching ANOTHER (FALSE!!!) GOSPEL, namely: Turn from your Sins ?!!!!!!!! wich is WORK-Based! Acts 16:30-31 KJV And brought them out, and said, Sirs, what must I do to be saved? And they said, >Believe on the Lord Jesus Christ,< and thou shalt be saved, and thy house. Romans 11:6 KJV And if by grace, then is it no more of works: otherwise grace is no more grace. But if it be of works, then it is no more grace: otherwise work is no more work. Ephesians 2:8-9 KJV For by grace are ye saved through faith; and that not of yourselves: it is the gift of God: Not of works, lest any man should boast.
And: REPENTANCE does not mean to "Turn" from Your Sins!!! So Sick of hearing it.
