God's Isolating You for a Reason | The (Unexpected) Beauty in Being Set Apart | Melody Alisa

- Hey, sis! Today, we're talking all about isolation. And let me be the first to say - isolation isn't fun BUTTTT what the Lord is doing in our hearts, minds, and spirits during a season of being hidden or being set apart is BEAUTIFUL. When I think of being hidden, I think of the story of David - he was selected as the next king of Israel but he had to wait 15 long years to see that promise come to pass. Could you imagine?! But it was during these 15 years God was pruning, equipping, and preparing him for that next season. It takes trust and faith in a God that's got a plan even when it seems like it's taking forever. I hope you enjoy this video!!

Hi! My name is Melody Alisa - welcome to my channel. I lived in South Korea for two years where I met God and I documented my life as an English teacher (check out my Life in Korea playlist for more on this!) Now, I call Atlanta home. On my UA-cam channel, I share my Christian faith and life as a creative, a newlywed, and a new mom through weekly new videos!
god is setting you apart being set apart by god god is isolating me god set you apart for a reason, beauty in isolation, christian set apart, being set apart by god, melody alisa, god is setting you apart
hey, hey! so today in the comments we are answering this question: What is ONE promise God has made you? Just like in the story of David, sometimes God speaks a promise into and over our lives but it takes YEARSSSS for it to come to pass - but that doesn't mean God isn't working in the middle!
For me - one promise from God is healing. It hasn't come to pass quite yet but I'm holding onto this promise until it does!
Amen!!
AMEN
SOOTH ... HeartHugs🫀
AMEN
Amen!!! I sometimes listen to 'Promises never fail' by Bethel.
The lyrics are:
" I'm standing on every promise that you make. I will see it come to pass in your Name, in your Name. Jesus I will trust every word I hear you say. I will see it come to pass, in your Name in your Name."
And everytime I got to the second part of the song I was encouraged and in awe that truly EVERY word that God has said is true and will come to pass!! If the word says( and it does in Isiah 53:5) that By his stripes we are healed...then we are healed!!!!
Currently in this season, my biggest advice here is to really, really surrender everything to God. Don’t try to figure it out in our own strength. You will make it on the other side and see Gods promises. Trusting and obeying is key and belief in Gods promises. Stay rested and understand that God is in control. You will stay in perfect peace who’s minds are placed on him. Stay in faith and trust him. He’s got you. ❤
Thank you Lord for this Comment! You encouraged me ! 😊😝🥰Thank you Jesus I will trust
Amen!!!
thank you so much for this. stay blessed sister ❤️❤️❤️
Wheewww…Another Word of Reassurance 🤎🙏🏽
Amen!!Appreciate that..Praise God
Growing up in a toxic family led me to have no desire to have kids & “repeat my parents mistakes” but GOD has given me such a loving and nurturing heart towards children my whole life & in embracing this side of me GOD had shown me that i will have that family one day & i know he’s prepping me for his glory❤
AMEN❤️
@@l.t.3857 GOD blessed Abraham & Sarah with children at 90!!! There’s nothing that our GOD can’t do❤️ trust in GOD & stay patient & let his will be done in you sister❤️ May GOD bless you and your family
@@rachel1lynn Thank you. I needed this as well. Im 34 have been trying, 2👼in heaven hoping & praying that one day we can have a bay🤰🤱 Its difficult to keep your faith up when you feel pressure by time & family members.
Can you share any tips for how you were able to embrace that side of you?
I also grew up in toxicity and was S/A for many years and while God has helped me forgive and move on I don’t have the desire to have kids or even have intimacy with a partner in that way. That part of me has been dead for a long time.
I like kids in general but I just don’t see myself having any or being a mom…but I feel so strongly that I’m “supposed” to have that desire and I have trouble discerning where that feeling comes from🥲
I’m happy to hear you were able to embrace it and are on your journey to restoration and healing. I hope God blesses you greatly for it🤍
@@pearly.darling_ I don't know which conclusion you may get to, but know that it is okay to stay celibate all your life. If you feel like you do not have the desire to get married and have kids, maybe God is calling you to stay celibate. Read Matthew 19v1-9 and 1 Corinthians 7 the whole chapter.
Romans 8:18 "The pain that you've been feeling can't compare to the joy that's coming" !!
amen, amen!!
I love this one
Amen Amen!
Yes Lord! Amen
🙌🏽🙌🏽
God told me that he is going to put a permanent smile on my face.
I love this 🥲🥲 sounds like it’ll be that regardless of the situation kind of joy!
That's such a beautiful message!!
So true..
Remember the tears we have shed we shall have tears of joy.
Amen amen
Wow❤
That’s beautiful sis! I receive that too 🤍
I believe my isolation has just begun. My wife, my queen of 26 yrs has gone to be with our Lord and Savior 2 months ago. I am lost and devastated, but at the same time I feel and see God working The worldly things I thought I enjoyed are the furthest things from my mind now. While on my way to the hospital to be with my wife, a complete stranger approached me about joining a Bible study group near my home. He was working!! God says he will never leave or forsake us. I can SEE and FEEL his presence. This is a VERY TOUGH season for me right now. I dont like this, but I trust Gods plan. Melody, I just found your channel today. So this is another way God is working!! thank you ma'am
I’m so sorry to hear about your loss, but hearing your love for her through your words, I can tell she was so blessed to have you those 26 years.
Lifting a prayer for you!
Best wishes to you in your time of mourning.
May the good Lord give you strength and comfort during this season 🙏🏽 ❤
I’m sorry for you’re loss. I pray you’re days are made whole with God’s grace! 🙏
🙏🏾
God has promised me that i am the one who will break my generational curses in my family and help them financially.God isolated me the whole of last year I moved to a new house and God isolated me from the world 🌍🌍 i faced my childhood trauma beat almost a long time depression....i am currently working on losing weight and building my company am a digital Marketer and all i can say God is good.
Psalm 27:14 NASB 14 Wait for the Lord; Be strong and let your heart take courage; Yes, wait for the Lord.
Followers of Jesus Christ need to always remember this; God and His wisdom and love always has a very specific reason for causing us to wait for some particular thing we are asking about. Because all we see is what's in front of us. God not only sees what's in front of us, but He sees what's beyond that, and beyond that, and beyond that, and He sees the affect it'll have in our life, whether we wait or whether we don't wait.
☺️🙌🏾Glory
my story
Your story sounds so similar to mine. I’ve been in isolation for almost a year after moving to my apartment. I thought I was already spiritually awake but this isolation awakened something completely different. God is real!
Thats so amazing God is so God i love him ❤🙏🏾✊🏾
He has promised that He will NEVER leave me, nor forsake me! Knowing that He is present always is a huge strength to me!
AMEN!!
BIG ONE! Hallelujah!!! 🎉🎉🙏🏽✝️
🙏🏼 Amen

I went from having a good job where I felt like i was finally financially stable to getting fired and being out of work for a few months then getting a part time job. I spent so many days crying my heart out because I didn’t know how I was going to feed my child and I, pay my bills and getting the things that we needed but Jehovah God promised me that he would provide my every need if I just seek his face more and he did just that and I love and thank him❤
How did you get fired so I can try and avoid this from happening bc the way my anxiety was just reading your comment. So glad God doubled back for you but I sure the experience is as so painful, and I can’t afford to feel that way rn.
@@jericaleigh I had reported my supervisor b/c he lied on me to our boss and some other things but they ended up firing me but saving his job. It was a messed up situation. It all worked out for me though so I’m thankful for what happened.
that's a beautiful story, God is so incredible in the ways He works in our lives! so encouraging to see Him going before you in your life even in such a difficult and confusing period, He was with you providing for your every need. i pray that He will do the same in mine as i also try to find work :) God bless you beautiful sister ❤
@@christina8866 thank you❤️ God is always with you and He always provides because He is a provider. Just keep seeking Him and He will work things out in your favor.
@@brittanyshanez the same thing happened to me. The exact same thing
When I learned I had Endometrial cancer, in 2015, and the doctor's here, didn't have an answer or know how to treat it. I gave it to God. So I moved 198 miles from my children, for 5 years!
While away from my children I had major foot surgery, total hip replacement. In 2000 my cancer spread from the uterus to my kidneys and lungs. I held on to God, kept my promise to have faith. In 2021, my doctor told me that she could not find any cancer anywhere inside of me. 🙏
I then moved back home in 2023. But I still travel that 198 miles 2-3 a month
Since, being home I have been lurtrn, praying, reading, studying, watching everything and getting closer to God. I believe God sent me to your channel. Thank you for your help. 🙏 I will keep you in my prayers.
Isolation can be such a gift...in it is peace & place to dream again...the birds are still singing, nature is still beautiful it's spring...All those things you loved as a child being outside & free from chores, are still there for you...God's outside too...go play de-stress & remember what it feels like to be just you in nature with God...& full of hopes & dreams!
I cannot believe I am saying this... I enjoy the isolation wholeheartedly
Amen and same!
I am definitely "waiting, waiting, waiting"😂😂😂 but the Holy Spirit has just taught me to trust in the process of my life. My journey with Jesus has gotten so much deeper along the way and honestly, I'm actually enjoying the isolation ☹️ Idk if I'm weird for that. I spend all my time listening to God's word, reading God's word. I mean, what else could an introvert ask for?
Girl listen, I understand you completely. I'm unemployed and living with my family at home but I have so much peace and joy. I thought I losing it as well.
Totally get you sis! So relatable 💖
girl you speaking my language ❤️ i wanna know GOD & his word with more passion than anything i’ve ever wanted to peruse ❤️
Totally get it sis, me too🥰🥰🥰
I'm doing a Holy Lands trip next year May. If any of you are planning to, let's meet in Jerusalem 🙌🏻
Being protected (and being prepared) for what God has in store for us. Most times I thank God for the said "unanswered prayers" (season of isolation) because its for the best
SOOTH ... HeartHugs🫀
It's honestly been a rough rollercoaster. If I'm being honest I've always struggled with feeling alone even when I had friends! The more closer I started getting to God slowly he started removing people from my life. Now I have no friends or my partner. I still don't know how to wrap my head around it because I thought I mastered the season of being happy alone. I literally do everything by myself , God is my number 1, and prioritizing self care into my life. So I don't understand why God is allowing me to go through this again or so think so again .But I trust him it's just been hard .
OMG... im in the same season. So to shut down the noise and questions...and confusion... I've doubled down and started the Daniel fast. I don't have a clue what my daddy (God) is preparing me for, but SIS I don't want to miss it. Know you're not alone. Stay strong...we got this!!❤
I can totally understand! If it is anything like I've witnessed myself with losing people it could be that they are not meant to go to that next level. You will meet others at the level. He has heard conversations that you haven't. All loss isn't loss! Keep your faith and keep talking to him!
I am going through the exact same thing here girl and it can be tough and feel so isolating! Just know that what God has in store for us is bigger and better than we could have thought and those people were not meant to come with us to the next level! Stay strong and sending lot's of love and light your way! 🙏🏻💞✨
@@princessarielll @ "He has heard conversations that you haven't..." 🙌🏼
I can relate to all these answers, even the Daniel fast, which I did recently
This is all confirmation for me reading these comments, I was starting to worry because after leaving a narc I've slowly lost many people and am alone but my faith has grown, I'm champing at the bit and raring to go but still feel stuck
I'm clearly still in training before I move to next level
Its been a good lesson in trusting in the Lord
God has me in this season of isolation cause I feel that He knows that I rely too much on things outside of Him and He wants me to learn to lean, trust and truly surrender to His promises and Love, overall I am learning to just be still and allowing Him to be God. It does not make much sense but I know God is with me❤.
This describes me to a T. I understand the waiting period of certain things I expected in my life is because God knows my character and my flaws and He has to draw me closer first for deeper understanding
How is it going?
Im in that season too. To depend on Him for everything and lean on Him.
Isolation is really tough when you are used to having meaningful and fulfilling connections all the time. I never expected to experience this. I feel like I've been in a season of isolation for years and today was my breaking point. I cried out to God this morning and a friend of mine sent me this link just a few minutes ago.
praise God 😢
I feel like through this isolation that I've been in I've been able to see and learn that I can't put my trust in humans, I can't put my hope into humans not even my parents my siblings or friends only God. He's the only reliable one in all of the universe and in my whole life. I can't depend on no one like I can depend on God. I can't trust no one like I can trust God. Nobody loves me like God loves me nobody can care or provide for me like God does. People are unstable, I'm unstable but God is steady and consistent
The lord has promised me that I will be a mother and wife 🙏🏾
Amen
Yes, He told me that I am to be both to you. But only if your ready, to go thru a time of swallowing!!!
Make America Great Again!!!
My isolation has been on going for a couple of years now. I have Isaiah 40:31 hanging on my wall to remind me to be patient and wait for the Lord. It's difficult, many times I fall into impatience and become anxious, but God is so faithful and kind to comfort me with His peace all the time. 💕
I really enjoy your content but I think that you're talking about David not Daniel.
Your name is BEAUTIFUL!
Its made me very angry and hostile being alone
@@Miamiflow885 it's understandable. it's a process. Spend more time with God and His word. He will do something in you that even you will be surprised, but only if you will let Him in. You are not alone, He is with you all along.
@ South Paw
Which is normal. Please do not listen to this religious BS. we are humans at the end of the day and we want to be included, and having people preach “this is what god wants for you” is very toxic and unhealthy. You deserve to be included and not isolated, and religion encouraging isolation isn’t going to get you to the point of where you WANT to be
9 years ago I became a disabled shut-in due to my husband and brother in law’s actions. Neither have apologized. I lost all my friends and my family is toxic. I’ve seen 5 people in 3 years. It’s been really difficult, but my relationship with God keeps growing. Thank you for this video 💕
I am struck by this post and really hope that you are receiving the support and healing that you need. Im so sorry for what you've been through. In the storm, God remains faithful and merciful. I pray that you receive Divine restitution, restoration and deep healing surrounded by love and empathy
Sister If ever you need someone to just listen I am here rarely sleep contact me for whatever reason!🕊🕊🕊
🙏🏾🙏🏾🙏🏾 for you Pamela. I'm available for safe listening and conversation as well. Please let me know. 💌
I hope you are okay ! God bless ❤
God bless you and God loves you
I’ve been going through this for 2 years every since I graduated high school. Lost a lot of friends Also I was misunderstood by my family as well I’ve been hidden for 2 years now hopefully one day I can get out of it and God can reveal his plan for my life,
God's with you
@@Sportingvibes you’re right
If you allow him lead you and you are patient enough to follow his leading, i know His purpose for you will be eventually revealed. One thing i've discovered in my own walk with God is that sometimes we get clues about His purpose for our lives from what we find ourselves doing in our waiting season with Him, most especially the things we won't or naturally do by ourselves before, but by His grace we are there doing that. Draw nigh to God and love Him and His plan for us will be revealed gradually (Romans 8:28).
@@Sportingvibes appreciate it the advice man 🙏🏾🙏🏾
🙏🏾🙏🏾🙏🏾
I know God has promised me healing, physically and emotionally. The wait/isolation is hard and I oftentimes become anxious and obsessive with wanting the page to turn. But I thank for you and Him giving you this timely reminder for so many of us. I continue to wait expectantly 🙏🏽
Have you ever been swallowed up???
My promise is a loving family, healing for my children and a husband that loves the Lord more than me. If he loves the Lord more than me, then I know that he will treat me with respect. I had too much abuse in my life and I refuse to be a victim of it any more. 🙏🏿🙏🏿🙏🏿
I feel you Precious
That don't evan sound right you should love God more than your husband do wtf
AMEN AMEN AMEN,,SISTER, ME 2🎉
Aameen! 🤲🏼 I know what you mean and can relate.
Have you ever gone thru a time of swallowing????
God has promised me that I will one day become mother. My husband and I have been trying to conceive for 2 years, and I feel like my time is coming near. It has been a really difficult journey and I have had one miscarriage. God's promises are great, and I know he always keeps them. I won't lose hope! Prayers and blessings to everyone! 🙏🏻❤️
its well trust the process with faith we will overcome for whatever is of His creation overcame the world
In Jesus Name we pray for you to have a beautiful healthy child/children. Amen God is Able🙏🏼
Our God is faithful, the scripture says those who depend on him will never be disappointed ☺️
Love and Light to you ❤
2022 has definitely been my year of isolation and great loss. I'm noticing a separation between me and alot of friends and family. I'm noticing alot of fruitless relationships in my life and it's honestly such a heartbreaking scary time to lose people have been friends with for years. I ended my 7 year relationship the beginning of the year and have been on a journey of serious healing and growth. I've never known a year like it and I've never felt so alone. I am learning that God does his best work in the dark, in the discomfort and in the pain. I've never relied on God like I have done this year and I literally need him so much.
And God needs you more, he loves you😌, his never going to let you down so just trust him
🙏🏾🙏🏾🙏🏾
@@jacklinelinus5983 thankyou very much for this 💓
@@tclGLOAmp4er 💓
I so relate to this! Wishing you all the best on your healing journey.
He promised me my latter days will be greater than my first ❤ 🙏
In my waiting season . God has promised me a husband and children . I have been single for almost five years and patiently waiting ❤
#goals
I'm in my isolation season and it's unlocked a WHOLE NEW LEVEL OF TRUST and transformation in my heart. It's is BEAUTIFUL. and incredibly painful lol
This season of singleness and isolation has me standing on the promise that the LORD is always with me. I’m never alone, and I can depend on Him for everything my heart and mind need! 🙏🏻💖
I’m in a period of isolation. I’ve been emotionally abusive to myself and to my past partners. I knew that if I stayed in a relationship or around exes I would stay the same person I was. It’s really hard to stop attaching myself to lovers and stop using them to distract myself, but it was time for me to face my wounds and my trauma alone with God.
Amen. Your not alone.
God promised me a husband. I was always skeptical about people who said it but now I whole heartedly believe it. I’m excited but it is a little isolating . I also see how god is trying to humble me. I’m learning humility is a ongoing process and not just about actions but how to humble my thinking and heart
Some people will never get married. You need to prepare for that possibility
#KEEP believing because it's going 2 happen, #Very soon, SISTER 🎉
Lord knows I needed this. I have been struggling with Isolation. Feel indifferent towards my friends and family. Like I might be alone. But this clarified that it is a process. Thank you for sharing this.
One Promise from God is to Trust in his Word. I struggled with depression and allowing peoples views of me stop me from coming closer to God. When I started focusing on God it helped me heal mentally. It allowed me to drown out some of the negative views. Focus on God's words and his love. It is helping me heal. It also helped me quit Alcohol and smoking.
I truly believe that in this season, God has promised to truly heal my perception of myself and to root me in true purpose. It's like he's getting me ready for all of the wonderful things he has for me.
Amen
I have been praying and seeking God to understand why I’m feeling this isolation, so to say this video is timely for me is an understatement. Thank you for letting God use you. God still answers prayers
Just just crying about being alone
The scripture says you will prosper even in the desert; your leaf will not wither. Even in famine, you will have more than enough. It’s showing us that even though circumstances may change, the Source never changes. Because you’re connected to the Source, because you’re honoring God, you will be blessed in the famine; you’ll increase when others are decreasing.
I’m currently in this season and also a healing process and I have my moments to where i cry but I just know God is preparing me for something
I’m in this season rn. It’s not an easy one tbh, but I’m excited for what God is preparing me for.
Does it get better...
God makes his presence known with a hug, kiss on the forehead everyday. He places several reminders in the real world. For example, warmth in my gut in moments of doubt, sends an ancestor in uncertainty by animal, and most importantly when I am in a happy place a light shines out my chest.
Currently in this season and when I tell you it is so hard. It’s only been 2 weeks. I literally feel alone in my thoughts. I can’t go out and spend money bc I have to try and save money so there isn’t anything that I can do that will allow me to feel less alone rn. I have no children and my daily routine just consist of WFH and figuring out what I’m gonna eat and then shower and then bed.
2 weeks. It's been 2-1/2 years for me so far cried rivers of tears. Learning patience and lonnnng suffering
I hope you’re at a better place now than you were when you commented! I am literally the same right now, I don't know what to do with myself
I am finding it hard too ! It’s a bee awhile now, and even though I am married, I still feel alone, I am literally a bread winner, mother wife etc… I can’t find any form of balance in my life.
I don’t get any form of support
Have you ever gone thru a time of swallowing????
Just had an anxiety attack and came to youtube thinking about seeing a video like this one that would bring me comfort and an explanation. I didn’t even pray, it was just a passing thought in my head. Then this video pops up in my suggestions. This was exactly what I needed to hear. Thank you so much and Thank You God!! God Bless You and everyone who sees this!!✝️❤️❤️❤️ I feel His energy all over me and through this video. Amen!
GOD'S TIMING IS ALWAYS PERFECT, IN THE MEANTIME HE IS SETTING THINGS UP, AND SETTING THE CROOKED THINGS STRAIT.
I believe that the Lord God promised that I will join him at the banquet table as part of his heavenly family of saints. This means alot to me as someone who has been excluded by family at times. I look forward to an eternity with Jesus Christ and all of the love, worship and fellowship in heaven.
❤❤❤ I’m learning to surrender during this isolation period
Real
I'm not religious but this is something that I needed to hear. Isolation feels awful, and on sunny days, you feel even more awful that you're not happy or out there, but sometimes you need to quiet the noise, and just come back to yourself. (or for you, coming back and connecting to god) You explain it so well and the way you speak with such grace and love :) Thank you for sharing your wisdom and knowledge.
God told me I would be a world renown singer and I would sing in front of crowds of hundreds of thousands. And I know that sounds weird to people, but when you know your God and you know his voice and you know that sometimes the things he shares with you, only you will believe and understand…. Then you hold on and prepare for it. I believe God 🙏🏽
Just know whatever season God has you in is for your good and His glory!
He has promised me that when the one for me will eventually come along, it’ll make sense why it took so long for the person to show up. That the wait will be worth it.
Despite that, it’s still really hard to wait sometimes. I hope God will give me the ability to be patient.
Amen
amen
Amen sis ❤
''I will never leave you or fore sake you.'' Deuteronomy 31: 6-8
Just got out of prayer 😭 at 6 am. And saw this! 😩 My spirit has been so torn and confused from isolation and my emotional trauma. But this video and my prayer has helped me see clearly! 😩🙏🏾🙏🏾 Thank you sm
God has definitely been isolating me for protection from myself and from others. Coming out of a relationship that did not serve him has truly opened my eyes do a lot of things and he has been keeping me hidden to find my way back to him!
God promised to NEVER leave me nor forsake me. Thank you Jesus!❤
Of course! Gods word says we are SANCTIFIED and the meaning of the word is “to be set apart” and I believe that’s why we feel like such strangers in this world. When we are truly his children the world hates us just as they did him so we must take up our cross and follow him! He is our present help in a time of trouble and he never leaves us, thank YHWH!
‼️‼️‼️
God promised me that if I quit smoking He would bless me... I quit smoking August 18th 2023.... 5 days later I already feel blessed.... The Holy Spirit will not dwell inside of an unclean temple/body..... I repented, asked for forgiveness and asked God to fill me with His Holy Spirit.... I believe that God has given me His Holy Spirit and if I go back to smoking I would lose God's Holy Spirit because my body/temple would be unclean again.....
I believe that God has promised me a platform to share my life with the world. To become the UA-camr that my teenage self always dreamed of , this past summer I was isolated from everyone. I cried and wiped my own tears , I had no one to call on but God . I was able find a sense of piece with being alone .
Yes 🙌🏼 I believe with you
He has promised me that it is during this season of isolation that He is preparing me for the future. That the relationship and intimacy He is building with me is going to sustain me in the future and in what He has in store for me.
Loooove this! The “you” that comes out on the other side is going to be so equipped for the next season! 🤍
Now, I love what you said Melody, the "you" me that will be on the other side.Tysm.
@@MelodyAlisa yes yes and Amen.
God has been constantly reminding me that he’s with me. I know we constantly say it just out of habit but he’s been sooooo intentional to remind me each day.
I'm in a season of isolation, and it's hard...but I'm beginning to see it as a gift. My faith has grown so much during this time, and God is revealing so many truths to me 🙏🏼
my isolation started in October 2020 and ended in January 2022. when I came back to my family's house after almost 15 months, I recognized that the things that used to bother me don't do that anymore. even the rust and dust at the commonly used places. I realized that God created that urgency in me as he wanted me to heal in isolation. Cause I'm healed through and through and at peace with my life, to its bits now. what a miraculous blessing
thank you for providing clarification on what it is that we went/are going through. god bless 🙏🙏🙏
God has promised me that I will break generational curses and that I will have financial freedom to help others ❤️ All my life he has been so faithful. The warfare is real right now but I have to keep declaring his truth over myself and repeating his promises and worshiping using my voice and in my obedience. God is showing me what it means to fully depend on him and trust what I heard from him instead of going to others first for big decisions. Praise the Lord!
This is beautiful and so relatable..may you continue to bless the Lord ❤️
Oh! I didn’t put my promise: a husband is a promise I know the Lord has made me. I am 47 & have never been married…it has taken me years to stand firmly on what He told me way back when I was 18 and again when I was 33. Talk about waiting…😮😅. It’s about His Kingdom though, so I will wait! To GOD BE THE GLORY!! ☝🏽☝🏽☝🏽🙏🏽✝️
🙏🏾I can relate.
He will give you what you desire as long as it is what he knows is best for you. Keep the faith. God bless you 🙏
God continues to tell me to TRUST HIM! Proverbs 3:5-6 is the scripture that I seek to live by. Great video!!!!
Definitely in this season and I’m learning to enjoy being alone with the Lord, it’s hard sometimes and you might feel stuck/alone, but God always reminds me that He has a purpose and He is working on my life with this exact season✨💛 thanks for this encouraging video
Wholeness and Restoration for my Life 😇😇😇😇
In this season God has promised me protection, healing, love, and abundance. God had been sooooo good to me and always there by my side ❤️❤️❤️❤️
Keep the Love ❤️ Peace and Positivity Flowing 😎
I stumbled upon your channel just today. My God, the confirmation I’ve received from watching this video is crazy. I’ve been in a season of isolation for 3 years. It was completely unexpected, but through it I felt this urge to get closer to God. I’ve dedicated my life to Christ and spent time actually reading His Word. I don’t where God wants me or what He wants to do with my life, but I’m gonna trust in Him. Thank you so much for this video. I hope to see many more and continue to grow in Christ.
In June 2020 God promised to do something bigger in my life. And since that day I have been attacked by the devil and I see God is pruning me and something greater is on the way.
God promised that my healing would result in the healing of my whole family. I don't exactly know how, but I'm on the very slow, non-directional journey of self-healing. So far God has been faithful and I trust that He'll continue to be.
I am genuinely right there with you Sophia. Let's check back in the next few months. It ain't easy, but we have been equipped
The timing of this video was perfect. I’m currently in a season of just sitting at the feet of Jesus. I’ve started a journey of being engulfed in God’s word, and I’m currently learning so much about our Lord and Savior from the book of John. I rededicated my life to Christ last year and since then have been seeking Him and the promise for clarity in purpose and a new identity. It’s been beautiful. In this season, my patience and what feels like preparation have definitely been areas where I have felt stretched. I believe that there’s purpose and promise on the other side of sitting with Him. I appreciate your obedience in spreading His word, thank you so much.
I've been going through isolation lately but one promise that I know God made for me is that he is going to bring me a sense of calmness and trust. Being that I struggle with so much anxiety I find it hard sometimes to put my all into God but I came to a realization that this isolation is happening for a reason, it is only going to allow me to be closer to him more and see God for who he really is.

1) We're removed from distractions
2) God prepares, matures and equips you for what is coming next
3) We learn to develop a new intimacy and new dependance on God
4) We're being protected
Thank you..❤
I choose to be isolated. Grieving and homelessness lead me to isolation even more. A broken 💔 leads to isolation.
Thank you so much, I really needed to hear this! Being an introvert, sometimes I worry that my isolation is a natural trait that I have to overcome to thrive in society, but I'm realizing that I've grown so much spiritually in my alone seasons and I believe God is preparing me for something wonderful. God bless you!🙏
Isolation is so hard, and frustrating at times, I know it's God's will, and it's what's best for me. I cry sometimes because it doesn't feel good, I feel empty and lost, sometimes I'm screaming on the inside. But it causes me to want to be closer to God, because I know I can't get through this without God, and I need him desperately.
Hiii I'm in the same place😭🙏 maybe we could make a group chat 4 all of us in a waiting szn
God took me out of sin, had me break off a toxic relationship, move back to my city with my family and in my mom house, transfer from a University to a Community College, change my major from Sociology (and wanting to go to Law School), to Phlebotomy Technician (and then to Nursing School afterwards), I have no friends here (I have friendly classmates), I have grown apart from my 2 best friends from my old college, I am closer to God & Jesus & a proud Christian, I don’t sin as did before. All I do is go to class and anything that has to deal with my college and coke home to study and do my work, and I have peace.
I have literally been crying because of obscurity in all aspects of my life, so this is very comforting to hear 🙏🏻❤️🥰 Thank you Melody
I'm going through my season now. Have been since 12-1-23. I have no idea what God wants from me, but I know why he's isolating me. I asked for this in so many ways, not directly of course, but in many ways, he gave me what I asked for even though I'm now hurting like never before. He removed my family, my ex-girlfriend my family from me. And now I have to fight a new fight. I know he has me. So I'm not worried. Just dealing with the hurt one day at a time all while learning to be still, be quiet, and be patient with my tongue. He is already renewing my mind. I owe him everything. Here's to all walking in their walk of isolation. It's tough, but we gotta be strong, we gotta hold fast, we gotta get through to the other side. ..amen.
My promise is that God will never leave nor forsake me and that He has a hope and a future for me❤
One promise that God made me is Restoration!
i am in isolation and God has poured out His grace for me during this time
God told me a year ago that He was going to refine me. I was a lump of gold, but i will be refined and more valuable. Then He told me zero contact with my family, which was hard to do. I believe what He has promised, and I believe l am nearly at the end of my refining. It has not been easy, but He has never let go of my hand and has loved and encouraged me the whole way. If God is choosing you to be isolated, rejoice and know you are honoured, so praise and thank Him in all the stages no matter how hard it seems. He never tests us more than we can cope with.
Divine timing! I am in my isolation period in my life. It has been hard, but I know God won't leave me nor forsake me as others even my family have.
Kingdom Women Shine 🌞 and Glow 🌟
May the LORD continue to bless the union 🙏🏻
God is leading our family toward a property and homestead and simplifying our life. We have been waiting 2 years, the waiting period can be so hard and feel long but yes God will deliver on all his promises. Thank you for this well laid out video, God Bless ❤
To Break gernerational curses, and be financial wealthy to help my self, family, church, children grandkids ,poor, needy and envgalize God's blessings and word
May 18,23 I thank God for isolation me to stay focus on him😁🙏
2years in isolation/single. My prayer is that God keeps me prepare/ready for the things I am praying for.
The Most High has promised that no weapon formed against me shall prosper and that I am chosen. He’s promised that I am the one in my family that will break the cycles ❤
Amen !❤🎉
One promise God has made to me is that He'll never leave me or forsake me. Since the passing of my mother 11 years ago now, i've felt alone many times. Whether I was in the company of others or not. In every moment though, God was right there. Either speaking through others, or just in the presence of Him alone, His presence was always present-- and He will always be there. He's gentle too. It's taken a long time to see this, but He's such a faithful, loving, Father.
So glad I found your video. I’m in a period of isolation and just realizing that this is what it is. I have been isolated since covid started. Dealing with health issues over these last years. I don’t know exactly why I’m being isolated but now that I’ve read more about God puts us in isolation for a reason, I’m feeling much better. I am an introvert so being isolated doesn’t make me uncomfortable. I just don’t know why the Lord has isolated me. Now that I know that God isolates us for a reason I know I must keep the faith in God and use this time to grow deeper in His Word. He said He will NEVER leave me nor FORSAKE me. I believe and claim victory in the name of Jesus🙌🙏
God stripped me of many things this season to draw closer to him. So many confirmations all around. I feel particularly strong about marriage this year which has been a prayer point this time around. All feel like I've been called to encourage women and focus on my fashion business. Such a great reminder to put God first in all things. I rather work hand in hand in God than be disobedient and settle for less. Thank you 💕
God gave me the vision of Women’s ministry as well and LAWD. I feel so unequipped but He just keeps telling me that my experience and obedience is enough. That alone. My God 😭🙌🏾
I agree with both of you. To speak in to women’s lives and to focus on my fashion business as well
Wow! Today the Lord is doing a new thing, all the videos that's popping up on my screen i talking about isolation, God is telling me something here. In my devotion this morning I told the Lord "This isolation has become unbearable." Speak Holy Spirit. Since 2001 I had a vision the Lord promised me he was going to bless me and all the world will see and know he did it. I have made so many bad choices, I know I have delayed my blessings.
Hey sis, God is awesome! I was just telling my brother how leaving social media and my phone in general, has allowed me to lean on God. Not having distractions from whatever it is, only helps me in building a relationship with our father, Christ the Lord. Thanks 🙏🏾
😭 when I fell down the rabbit hole, so to speak... There's was just so much information about Christs fabrication and how we were living in The matrix and numerous other things that chip away at your face because it's the work of the devil and I started to lose faith in God because I was falling for the propaganda but one thing was always unchanging in my heart and that was The Earth is flat with a firmament above it. And while I don't consider myself a flat earther I have always believed my whole life that the Earth was flat and the belief in that 🎯 and no matter how lost I got and how far away from the fold I fell I always stood on that and I am grateful that that truth has brought me back to the fold and that God was waiting for me with the porch light on ❤️ and then in the last 5 years all the sightings and stories and talk about Giants I just knew in my heart that I had to come home because they've been keeping that from us for so long because that is inherent truth that the Bible is real and they are terrified for us to realize that they have spent so much time and energy and effort convincing us that God isn't real
A move of God is happening which, ironically, is isolating as more revelation comes. At first I was struggling knowing that close friendships that drifted apart would not be rekindled. But I'm thankfuI they're alive and seemingly healthy. Believing the truth contrary to the conditioning is a lonely place and during this time of stretching, God has shown me that there are others out there -- in person -- that are feeling the same way but are keeping the earth's true shape to themselves. I found out recently that a friend from a former church believes the same way! Although we don't study together, it's comforting to know that there are like-minded ppl. God will bring the right ppl in your path in his time. I'm learning to find peace and quiet in the waiting! God bless you!
God has promised me that I will find my tribe, my TEAM, people who will start out as friends but our bond will be as strong as that of family. He has promised me that a Community of people who want to come close to Him, know Him, and improve themselves will surround me. In that Season I will meet the man I've been praying for, and he and I will build a beautiful life/household together. I've been working AND waiting towards/for this. Everyday I feel supported by God. Thank you for this video. It is a confirmation for me. A lot of the things you've said resonate with me deeply.
I'm a Muslim and i found this perspective really amazing... it's amazing how Abrahamic religions can find so many common points of solace in today's God defying world
Amen🙏🏽🙏🏽 this is exactly what happened to me!🥺 i went on a social media fast for a month and it definitely brought my fire back for the Almighty 🥰 thank you for sharing this💗
omg yesss!! i love to hear it!
One promise God has made me is: I will restore to you the years the locust has eaten.
Hey sis! I loved this message. I would actually call this consecration, season of consecration. Isolation is something that the enemy does when he wants to get us "alone" to discourage us and desires to "finish" us off. Consecration is what i believe what you speak of here. Just wanted to share. Bless you tremendously.
I have been denying that I need isolation. I continue to gravitate towards being distracted. God wants me to go through this season of isolation so I can see what he has for me, the joy, the self-love, and the peace he has stored up to give to me. The “my” husband I’ve prayed for, the house I’ve been promised and the love.
