Only 14 minutes in and your words are bringing such encouragement and life to my 68 year old soul!!!! 😭 “You’ve just been marinating!” Oh I love it!!! Thank you from the bottom of my heart!😍🥰😍
Hi Gladys rosado from Yukon,ok I am 81year,and have fallen in love with fluid art pouring, I am new and find this is what I want to do with the rest of my life. God has put this in my heart. Thank you
Feeling pretty broken atm. Wife and I had huge argument. I took off in the car haven’t been home. Heated text exchanges. Been fighting A LOT in the past few months. 😢😢😢. Go well with your art and God Bless.
Matt, I love you so much!! God has used you so greatly in my life! I thank God for you and for what your teaching has done for me!! I am 62 years old currently. During your “Artist Rise Up”conference a couple of years ago, I gave God my YES and things changed!! I started to draw (something I had not done for 40 years!) I hadn’t lost a thing even without practice for so many years! Thank you for letting God use you!!
Hey Matt, I'm one of the people who went through your Artist Cashflow Bootcamp recently. It helped a lot and I took a lot of notes. I plan on ordering your books and watching your videos for now. I am in my sixties. I'm a musician (play piano/Keyboard) also. I've played in churches off and on through the years. I've been blessed with a good drawing talent. I discovered Jazz some thirty years ago and would like to play jazz and draw too. Thank you for this video. I will take your wise counsel to heart. I intend on continuing to follow you and let you know how things work out. Blessings 🎊 🎨🎊🎨🎊🎨🎊😀
Oh that sounds fascinating with nature things. This is going to be good for me because I'm 40. Thank you so much I needed to hear this. When I was 16 I had drew 2 pictures, it was a eagle and Garfield. This dog had ate both my drawings and I had gotten discouraged and quit. Usually I just doing little drawings on my husband's envelopes. I have started taking this class which is Christian based and being creative. and God has been giving prophetic drawings. God had given me a message that I am in my season to stay in my art. Yes please
Thank you so much. I have my MFA (acquired as a senior) , but so much life has gotten in the way. I am asking God what He wants me to do at this point.
I’m a 76 yr old Aussie. Three years ago the HSpirit said out of the blue..’start painting again’. Boom..! Lord I haven’t done any of that since I was 16yrs old in High School. The reply was ‘ and all your paintings were hung in the corridors of the school for weeks.’ But Lord I couldn’t even enjoy that. I was so crushed as a young guy. It was like it’s too late for me to receive it as encouragement. Just do it the Lord said… I didn’t and the another reminder to start the process. I am very busy oversighting 5 Healing Rooms in three States of Australia and 8 House Churches…in Southport Eastern Queensland State of Australia. The Holy Spirit said this ‘ Insofar as you constrain or resist any expression of gifts I breathed into in your Mothers womb, you restrict the flow of my inspiration for creativity even in non related activities….’ Wow. Wow..! Still takes me into a state of almost paralysed reflection and wonder… I still prevaricated until late last year, after an actual physical sensation of a dig in the ribs and a stern voice saying simply ‘Do it.’ I knew what was referred to without a doubt. I have a bundle of paints and trying to teach myself alla prima or whatever it’s called. I break into a sweat after an hour or so.. the effort to overcome my inclination to run is enormous.. Anyway Bless you all and a massive Thankyou in providing such useful info’ about it alll…..
I am in my 60s and making progress. I am not very technical, but sure am creative! And I am learning the things that I was so afraid of! Step by step!! Copy and paste, Oh yes ;)
Yes such a blur through my 20s and 30s. I feel a shift to return to art at 40 and question how do I even start again but this video is real assurance and the Holy Spirit's prompting of that passion is affirming its time to shift to this creative and beautiful "co-laboring"process. Such gems of wisdom! Thank you Matt for allowing God to use you!
This is something I've been thinking about a lot lately. I had been praying to the Lord saying "who am I ?". My life has been stripped back and I've been left with that question. I've always had the desire to be creative and have dipped in and out of art. Recently I've started learning art online. I had previously thought that I am so busy with life that learning art on top of life will just leave me more exhausted. But it doesn't have to be instant, I can see chipping away and improving my skills and see where the Lord takes it. I just know that the only thing for me that I get completely engrossed in and the hours fly by, is when I'm making art. I've been lonely and isolated for years now. I can't even leave my house as I have two rescue dogs that can't be left alone. So my life is basically online. Online for work and online shopping etc. No friends, no family. But when being creative it takes my mind somewhere else. It would be great to make art for God's glory. Showing people how I feel, rather than just saying empty words. I think art often speaks louder than words. May God bless and lead you and your ministry.
Thanks Tommy, From a 44 yr old Christian Artist in Somerset England.I’m just entering a new season of creativity but struggling and your words of wisdom have been good for my Soul, I’ll be checking out your mentor program. Beth x
I really feel this is speaking to me😮 pray I finally step out..and I'm 53..better late than never...I got sick with long covid my plans ...better now..
Thank you for the encouragement. I'm closed to 60. My heart felt stunned, burning inside my heart when I first heard prophetic arts. There's some stirring inside of me. I want to learn and where and how? Onsite vs online?
Amen brother in Christ from Perth Western Australia 🇦🇺 ❤ Yes my first time I'm 58 years young 😁 God's giving me ideas for children's church at Saving Grace Church in Midvale, Perth Western Australia 🇦🇺 ❤ making Memory Verse for children to learn and take home. AMEN ❤
Thank you so much for all your inspiring videos and podcasts ! I have enjoyed each one . I did get the book "Waves of creativity" by Allen Arnold from your podcast with him. All of you have truly given me insight and encouragement to keep going. Thank you & God bless You!
This is me I'm 41 coming outta the wilderness I'm from Mississippi BT the Lord gave me a dream about texas I been here 2 years now I love people and portrait s are my passion ❤ this is so exciting and inspiring to me cause I know He s up something
Thank God for you. I’m a young artist, and I just don’t even know where to start .m. Thank God for your encouraging words cause sometimes I just sit alone and feel the spirit telling me I’m an artist but there’s that big question of “how do I do that?” Thank the Lord our God for your testimony Matt. Thank God for you.
THANK YOU ! Matt, I really enjoy your videos and books, they have helped me so much !!!! Greetings from Brazil. You should come here to give a lecture!
Unfortunately I had no opportunities to fulfil my lifelong dream of being and artist till I was nearly 60 yrs old. I have now been practicing my Art for 30 years. so I am now 90 and now I feel I have missed the boat. Living in Australia and not in a city, It has become difficult coping with everything technology and such taking up so much time.
The Lord knows where you live and how people can find you. There is a movie called Maude or Maudie about a Canadian artist who was discovered in a tiny little town on the east coast and her art is said to be owned by royalty now. No internet, no advertising, no education, no exposure. Just a sign in front of her extremely tiny home on a country road. Just do it. If it’s in you create as though the whole world will see your art. Do it with the joy it is to create with our Heavenly Papa. God redeems the time. I too am starting later. As my Mom used to say. “You just do what you can do. “. As long as you keep doing it.
74 and still growing like a teenager in an aging suit. It's never too late if you put your faith in God's hands and get a God idea and run or wobble with it. :-) Your spirit never ages, your body does and if you allow your mind to be renewed you will learn not to limit what you can do with Jesus ... no matter what your age. The scripture is full of promises for us to lead an abundant life with what we have left before we get our new body. Even if its only 3 years, you can still create a legacy that will bring no end of joy to Jesus. How do I know? Its what He is teaching me and all my past failures He is using to stick it to the powers of darkness. We can't lose when we get a revelation of His personal love for all of us. :-)
How do you "Sow" the word of God? Do you mean, look up scripture and pray the scripture over your life? Or claiming the word of God for your own life? I'm not sure how to do any of these. Please help. Thanks
Sigh.....I was 40min into this video when I just LOST IT...and not in a good way. Matt... I will say it again. I get so MAD when people PUSH COMMUNITY AND MENTORSHIPS!!!!!!!!! SOME OF JUST SIMPLY DON'T HAVE ACCESS TO THOSE!!!! We don't always have people in our lives who WANT TO HELP US, PARTNER with us, GROW WITH US!!! Some people don't want to connect with us. Not everyone has the LUXURY OF A SUPPORT GROUP!!! Online communities are SATURATED, sometimes TOXIC or hidden behind a PAY WALL. What do you have to say to those people? Hard CHEESE MAN, sorry about that? Sometimes also, the nature of our ART doesn't suit the culture we live in and sharing openly just isn't viable or even safe. Even in a community like yours (And yes I have tried reaching out to you before). And we have no choice. Other times we just simply CANNOT AFFORD TO PAY TO join a community. You speak alot of truth, and I believe you have heard from God. But you simply offer no help to those who just cannot walk or move certain directions....And I am truly sad about that.

I''m about to turn 62, starting my life a fresh after a difficult divorce, getting back to my art by the leading of the Holy Spirit!

I just began pursuing my art by His leading I haven't drawn in years but I still got it
It's like that country song... "i'm not as good as I once was, but I'm as good once as I ever was" LOL!
I just love the joy you exude! God has given you such a wonderful personality! You are a delight!
God is giving me at the age of 61 the chance to finally bloom. 🙏🏻 for this awakening.
