      Last year i have a relationship with a single mom but we broke up because of money thats what I thought, but the reason she broke up with me because of the father her child. They still have communications and see each other for her she do it just for her son but guy take it as advantage to be with them again. Should i still wait for her and keep communicating her even though her ex live-in partner there in her life?

Ezier said than done but definitely doable. 1st, before anything else, though, Take it before God...every time thoughts of her come, go before God... Talk to Him and LISTEN for the Holy Spirit...

      @katemian 3 роки тому +15

      I kind of disagree. I can think of AT LEAST 3 examples of women in my surrounding who committed to a "potential" and helped their partner come closer to God. All three men weren't Christians when their future wives met them for the first time. These men now serve the Lord and the couples' bond is getting stronger. Even God "falls in love" with our potential because He can see us not where we are NOW but where we COULD be. And helps us get there. One of the examples I am referring to is a pastor and his wife who've been married and serving the Lord for probably more than 25 years now.
      All I'm saying is that I don't think God called us to make our decisions from an intellectual point of view where it's obviously more reasonable to look for a spiritually grown Christian. But sometimes God plants things in our hearts and helps us see things in advance. I'm not talking about wishful thinking ("Oh, how I wish this was the one! I'll wait for him!"). But I really do believe that God can put a conviction in our hearts that this person is going to develop into a really faithful Christian.

    I was confused for YEARS about either waiting or moving in pursuing a relationship, and every time i tried to do something it failed, because i thought that by doing something i was acting on faith. And i always felt bad being single because most people i saw in church or in society were married or dating. When your contentment and happiness depends on having a relationship with a person more than God and Jesus, that is idolatry. I have repented of that, and now i am happy being a Christian only. If God wants me to be married or stay single, whatever his will is, that is fine with me.

      I still cannot fully grasp where I went wrong interpreting all the "signs". For some of these signs/coincidences came at an unbelievable timing, where prayers have been answered in ways that go beyond my understanding. And I was trying to be very careful with this.
      However, looking back, I now do know and acknowledge that I was definitely consumed by tunnel vision, causing me to interpret coincidences into how I wanted to interpret them because I couldn't let go of my ex.
      I just hope others don't go wasting their time and heart for something that may/or may not be, and really taking the points in this video seriously. I wished this clip had been published sooner so i could learn from it back then, though that probably wouldn't have happened cuz i was blinded.

  • @FSSPodcast
    @FSSPodcast 3 роки тому +43

    If it is meant to be I believe God will clearly open the door. Sometimes some obstacles can and should be overcome, however, when we have to jump through an excessive number of hoops, there's a good chance that the door is simply closed. We have to be willing to walk away. An unwillingness to adapt is often an indicator that we're over-emphasizing the importance of a relationship and not prioritizing where God wants our focus on at the present time. We need to be fully complete and satisfied in Jesus Christ before we are ready to embrace the potential of a Godly relationship in addition to that. God's timing is perfect, He won't let us miss the gifts He has in store for us, this includes a prospective spouse as well.

As someone that has had several counterfeits (got "confirmations", they were leaders in the church, etc.), I am appreciating and thankful for the wait because God knows the truth and is protecting us. Pray for wisdom and discernment, for anything hidden to be revealed, and for peace in the situation (whether to move forward in courtship or mutual separation).

    Personal story: I fell in love with a married man, he was married, but gay. His wife was living across the country and we had an immediate chemistry & connected on a deep level. I waited, as he professed his love for me. He swore loyalty to me, said that when his wife WAS around; they slept in different bedrooms and hadn’t had sex in over 20 years. That was all probably true. So, I decided to wait for him. That was in 2005. In 2007; I found out, from his computer one day; that no only was I NOT the only person he was with; he was a sex addict, and had hundreds of encounters and thousands of contacts. Unfortunately, I had become so intwined with him, and a death occurred in my immediate family right when I found out; and I was working for him; I stayed. I stayed, with promises of fidelity. We are married now. It took him until 2013 to get divorced, and we were married in 2019. I stayed at this point, for every reason - except love. That died when I found out about his philandering. He never stopped this behavior; and never intends to. I know I need to move on. But, now I’ve trapped myself in a lifeless, loveless marriage.
    If you’ve gotten to the end of this true story of MY life; please; PLEASE, move on. Once a cheater, always a cheater; and when they make you wait, without a date or even a promise, these are clear signs.

      I know someone close to me,a family memeber, in a similar situation to yours and they are still waiting after all these years.They were in their early 20s then.They're now in their 50s now.Her child is grown and getting married before her. The father still hasn't truly commited and giving her false hope of a happy ending.When someone loves you nothing will stop them from coming to you. You only get one life.
      I only say this with love I hope God opens your eyes to see what you deserve and how precious you are💗

      @@LifeAboutToya I can tell you from my personal experience. *Please* don't date someone you aren't attracted to. Some people aren't meant for us.Take it as a sign from God that,that person isn't the one for you. 1 experience I've had is a man who I met a few years ago. (The similar situation about not being attracted to that type of person.) He is very kind,loves children,active in the church but as for me. There are quality about him in his character ect that I did not like. Extremely expressive in a more feminine way(it may be his culture) and extremely talkative. He is not gay but as for myself I had to decline spending anymore time getting to know him in a group setting and distance myself. But pretaining to what you were saying. I noticed he was on the heavier side when he first came to our church but getting larger by the year.Some time had passed,I remember we were in the elevator in our church with some others. Someone had said there was extra food & did anyone want more?(we had enough.) He hopped out of that elevator forgot what he was going to do and scurried so quickly to get more at the church bbq. I thought then, for certain,personally,for _myself_ and my life "I can't have a man who won't take care of his health.The man God has for me needs to be there for our future children. Active and being alive." I could almost imagine him being out of breath running after children. This isn't what I desire.
      He is still a good man and he ended up marrying a woman who completely understands him because
      she has family that's similar to him in his mannerisms ect even though they are form different cultures He is Brazilian and she is french.
      In fact, he found out he's called to be a pastor and he works with the children's ministry. It's Gods purpose to make him talkative & expressive to reach the kids. Especially during covid & having church via online. His wife is a daughter of a previous pastor at our church. She is a nicu nurse and loves children too. You see? This couple found each other organically.God brought them together. For certain I know they are right for one another. So take it from me. Where there's smoke there's fire. I know it's the opposite. There's no spark so don't force it.
      I'd be fooling myself a few years ago trying to "like" indivisuals when I know I am not attracted to them.You ever garden? Some things just take place naturally. You can't force love nor attaction. So free your mind from thinking that you need to settle. Gods word said the eye has not see nor the ear has not heard nor has it entered the heart of man the things God has instore for us. In encourage you to read songs of Solomon. The whole book is talking about love and character and how beautiful and perfect to that person their loved one is and likewise.Love is beautiful. Gods love is a reflection in marriages. You cant force it,its just something that grows and is.
      Lastly wanted to share a joke but also a statement.
      "One thing you don't run for is a bus,a train or man because when one leaves another arrives."

    I’ve had a few signs about guys being in a relationship. For one of them, I had a crush on him (he went to my church) from 8th grade till right before senior year of high school. I eventually understood nothing would happen between us, and I was fine with that. Another guy I had a crush on after high school worked at the gym and was talking to a girl he went to school with. I eventually stopped having a crush on him, but we still talked sometimes. They broke up a in 2019 or something and then got back together in August 2020 or something. He and I still talk sometimes, but I’m not waiting for him to get out of the relationship. I totally respect their relationship; we’re just friends (closer to acquaintances, but still!) 😁

    I’m sure moving on is always the biblical answer and I kinda take issue with the , if “they are in a relationship with someone else that is a clear sign God wants you to move on”. God can still be saying wait, things will turn around, or you just have to be patient. Maybe he wants to teach you to trust him that he can make things happen. I’m have been praying about this exact situation in my life lately too. I haven’t been sure what God is saying but I have strong feelings for this girl and feel like God is telling me to wait. Been wrong before.

    1. If this person is in a relationship with someone else
    2. If this person has asked you to wait for them more than once
    3. If you are not in a relationship with this person because of their current spiritual immaturity or because of character issues
    4. If you are waiting for this person ONLY because you had a sense that this is what God wants,
    5. If waiting is no longer wise based upon the discernment the Holy Spirit is giving you

  • @adrianalchin

    Lord Jesus tells us to have faith. He also tells us to pray and not give up. God tells us He will give a new heart and a new spirit. A new heart and a new spirit is the changing of a person. Praying to God to change someone is faith. It is the job of a Christian to help a person to Lord Jesus who will save. Be careful of people who say "I think". Listen to the words of God. Someone who is not responsive to your love, does mean God doesn't want this person to be your love. The more recalcitrant a person is toward you, the more God is glorified. So go for it. Pray for that love that is at present loveless. Put your trust in God to change that person. God bless

      Girls be ware of a grown boy that pressures or rushes you to compromise your values. We need to require standards, boundaries,morals, and take your time. If a man says or acts by saying " it's what I say, not what you say!" Run as fast as you can!!!! It's not love but control and the benefits he's going to receive. Other red flags:no real job, bad past patterns, lives with his momma, car insured by someone else, shorty he sees and provides for at his convenience, and the two -faced -double -minded "church" man (question Christian character or any character that is contradicting). RUN RUN RUN. He will manipulate you by putting you on a pedestal and fake cherishing you, sex etc. then when he moves in he will devalue you so you don't leave. It's all about control.Then he will turn it all around on you and play the victim. This is about you being a part of their narrative not your individuality. Do not submit or bow down to a man with no plan and puts his own needs 1st. Love yourself!!! Especially if you have children. You wont know if your coming or going and walking on eggshells. Life will revolve around their wants and needs. You have been selected to do their bidding and regulating their emotions. A lot of these people have personality disorders. Tell yourself I deserve more, I deserve peace, I deserve to be happy, I am competent and responsible, lastly tell yourself their is a great big world and plenty of good men but you have to search in the right places and take your time. Just say I need to look through the lenses of abundance not have a scarcity mindset. Yes, I've been watching a lot of different coaching videos. Good luck and God Bless!!!!

    Not sure if I've necessarily been waiting on someone, but I've known this man for 6 years. We've been friends, not super close but there. I feel like there's moments of this unexplainable connection, but when we get deep enough it just kind of dissipates, and I feel like I dont fit into his world. Doesn't really give me the time of day lol but in my last relationship God gave me dreams like he was coming around (not why I broke up with the last guy). Wonderful, serious man of God, but doesn't seem to be serious about us. Idk why God has given me certain dreams if its been for nothing.

    • @stevenvelez1717
      @stevenvelez1717 3 роки тому +2

      Be open to being pursued, but if he don’t, then don’t wait. Or just don’t miss out on someone new because of him. You said you weren’t necessarily waiting, so it sounds like this is what you been doing but you’re just curious about him. Just guard your heart and be open (maybe flirt), but let his actions speak. If he ain’t serious about you, don’t be serious about him, but let him know it’s all based on him. You probably know all this, though. It’s easy to see you’re wise.
      I wouldn’t worry about fitting into his world so much. I think if a man wants a woman in his life, he’s going to adjust everything else to fit her in it.
      I understand the dream thing, because I’ve had dreams that were misleading for me, so just be careful with those. Looking back, (in my situation) it was just my flesh and I liked her a lot. They were just projections of my thoughts throughout the day.

    I think 3 & 5 stand out the most for me. If you've been in a relationship with someone who actually did have a Godly character but then chose to backslide it is very emotionally and psychologically disorientating. What do you say to the man or woman who found they had a great potential spouse/fiance/their soulmate, only to see them gradually take on worldly traits/strange doctrine and not care about "dissolving" their union? The same goes for those already married, ministry teams in churches and close business partners. The damage and sense of betrayal can be nigh impossible to return to normality from. Well, only God can make the waste places like Eden, trust Him, obey Him and let Him lead you to greener pastures.
    Thanks, Mark.

    My situation has been years, separated by different countries, immigration issues (largely $$$ and a lack of it) and other things beyond our control. We have both tried to give up eachother, tried to date others, but even going no contact didn't work. (Especially after March 2020 we thought of eachother more than ever.)
    In the several years we've been stuck apart, I have tried on many, MANY opportunities to move on. Every time I would look up "How to move on" (since my usual methods don't work) Yah/God would put things of the opposite effect in my path.
    Even this morning I was looking up "closing doors on someone" and the first thing that came up was a Marc the Messenger video about when He doesn't want us to close doors on someone.
    The most startling time, though, was when I was washing my hair and lamenting "Please, Father, bring me a husband of my own" and this thought that was not my own interjected with an image of my long-distance love and said "Didn't I already give you a husband?"
    Surely Yah/God has a plan for us beyond human comprehension. It's just hard being patient as a human in this world. To Our Father, one thousand years is equal to a day, meaning "soon" to Him is not the same as "soon" to us. We know nothing, He knows everything. It still sucks waiting and not knowing, though 😅 but He refuses to let me move on, so I can only trust and have faith that He's planning to reunite us. I don't think it's the devil who won't allow me to move on, I don't think the devil said "Didn't I already give you a husband?" (We are not married by human law, though would like to be. But it seems we must be by His law.)

    I’m friendly with a guy who’s not a Christian- & believe me, I know that’s not something to get into, as I’ve made that mistake before - but the problem is I’ve been waiting in a sense too on the point u make about someone becoming more spiritual ie. in this case, him gettin saved. I’ve had more clarity recently with not being able to see him with the pandemic & he knows the gospel & I’ve pointed him to church sites etc etc & I think he’s maybe just comfortable where he is tho he says he believes in God. As u mention, it’s like having an imaginary person in your mind, ie. it’s not real. He is what he is at this minute. And I seriously pray God saves him, but I can’t keep waiting on that happening right now with the aim of a relationship after. Would anyone reading this please pray for him to have his eyes opened to his need of Christ. Cos that’s the most important thing. Thank you 🙏

I’ve told many friends the story and some have said to give her time to think about what she wants, and some even said it may be better to just move on. From what you’re saying in this video it sounds like I should definitely move on. I’ve been single for 10 years now and so it seems it never really works out so it’s possible God is calling me to be single, or he may be having me wait for a period of time before he blesses me with a woman. We will see.

    The end is a bit over the top though? Better to leave someone than to stay with them if not completely sure...? That's like saying in court one is guilty until proven innocent. Crazy, to be honest. I'm sure you ought to spend another video going deeper into it. We are talking about a relationship. And God. Both people who want to do God's will. Remember Abraham? They doubted about stuff for many, many decades. They didn't just give up because they doubted. But the signs were very, very clear. There would never be an Isaac. I mean, that's the point of real doubt. There can be even more factors.
