This is good for us singles who question people that we have met in life and wonder if they were sent from God or not. Dont over think on people and act like you have to reach out before you might lose them. God will open doors and bring people together in His way in His time. Your see His hand in it all just sit back and focus on Him
Ries Korin Look in the mirror, bud. That guy you’ll see...needs Jesus. 🤷🏻♂️ Maybe you should grow up and see the error of your ways. Alas, it’s pretty apparent you’re not seeking truth, you’re seeking an argument. Unfortunately, I don’t argue with narcissists who need God. There’s no point...you’re empty, and wishing everyone else was as empty as you. Repent...God is faithful in His forgiveness.
I was walking home from work one day around 8 o'clock it just got dark. I had about a 15 min. Walk. Then I heard a voice come from the sky that sounded like a echo shout "turn arooound" the voice was so big it took up the whole sky and when I did turn around there was a brown Oldsmobile 7ft. behind me going 5 mph, with the passenger door wide open and the headlights turned off. when I said omg (because of shock), one guy slam the door closed and the other guy flipped the headlight switch on and drove off past me, screeching the tires. God knows everything. He knew their hearts and that they did not have a spirit of boldness, he knew all it would take was for me to just simply turn around. He did not tell me to run because I would have. they were close enough to me to hop out of the car, bear hug me and wrestle me into the car but GOD knew their hearts. I tried to get the license plate number but it was too dark to see it. I watched them drive all the way down the street till they got out of sight because I wanted to know what direction they were going in to notify the police. Then I bolted and ran the rest of the way home. He Saved my life. 😊🕎🛐 forever grateful.

@@krischurch3763 I Love Jesus Freak!! Yes I will get back into the Word and Study. Jesus died for Everyone who Trusts in him. Thank You Brother in Christ!!
I'm a young Christian and I really want to hear God's voice. I'm passionate and I think I hear God's voice, it's just that I think it's just me. And then when I feel like He's trying to talk to me, I feel like I'm being tempted by the enemy. I really need spiritual help to define whether I'm hearing in mind isn't a temptation. I really need you guys to pray for me, please. Please pray for me. And stay strong in the Lord!
Same, I am also young and eager for understanding of God's voice. I believe that Satan tempts and tries to distract and confuse our minds because he knows of the potential that we have to be used and matured by God. Don't give up and don't give in! Now, I have before fallen under great deception by the thoughts of my mind. I was "trying too hard" to be closer to God through works (HE does not judge by works alone, but by faith). I listened to crazed instructions given to me in my mind that harmed me physically, mentally, emotionally, and spiritually. I had been tossed and turned as the waves by evil demons due to my own anxiety. I behaved in ways of a obsessive compulsive disorder (OCD) to perfect every thing that I did, the way that I prayed, worshiped, etc. Behavior as this denies the sufficiency of the gift of salvation that is Christ Jesus. This is an example of Satan using one's faith against them. I prayed continuously on my confusion, frustration and stress, and Jesus rescued me! HE taught me that HE'd never place us in harm's way and that His word is always confirmed: through His Word (try the Spirit by the Spirit), through an outside source in our surroundings that lines up to meet the sense and necessity of the instruction to be done (for ex., in the middle of a sermon, God would not tell you to do something obnoxious; true worship displays, not distracts; the Spirit of God would not interrupt the flow of the Spirit (itself)), or by the consistency of that thought , perhaps days past, as God is patient and will not abruptly change HIS instructions.Remember that not every though that we think is from God, and there is NOTHING wrong with seeking clarity of God's word to you or instruction (what, not why). In fact, in the Word of God, we are encouraged to ask for wisdom, and it we shall be granted by God. God is not the author of CHAOS or CONFUSION, but peace. Satan is the author of confusion and chaos. When you suspect that it is Satan who begins to tempt or confuse your mind with odd instructions, simply say "Satan, get behind (away from) me, in the Name of Jesus!" or "Satan, you are the author of chaos and confusion. God is of love, truth, and peace. I rebuke you in the Name of Jesus!" God does not tempt with evil nor provoke one to wrath because of instruction.When it is God instructing you, the outcome of your actions would be peaceful and wise. Let us be prayerful, still, for ourselves and this nation as a whole, that we all may come to repent of our sins, trust and love Jesus completely.
We must have more faith and confidence in the Word of God and HIS promises to us as given! For it is written, "if any of you lacks wisdom, let him ask God, who gives generously to all without reproach, and it will be given him. But let him ask in faith, with no doubting, for the one who doubts is like a wave of the sea that is driven and tossed by the wind. For that person must not suppose that he will receive anything from the Lord; he is a double-minded man, unstable in all his ways."-James 1:5-8
Just today I cried and I told God that I put my worry’s and anxiety’s in him and I put my trust in him and I asked him if he wanted to say anything to me and a though popped in my mind saying “I love you” not in my voice, not in a voice per say but just a thought. I felt an overwhelming feeling of happiness and joy and safety, and I started crying. I told him I loved him too. I’ve never heard God speak to me. But I felt that was him. I feel like I’m doing something right. I feel worry less and like a weight is lifted off me. I feel happy and okay.
You ever feel so fed up that u just dont wanna live no more.. so overwhelmed with everything that you just dont care anymore. You just find urself pushing god away
I know God spoke to me earlier today. I was sick and I was so so so cold! I was freezing! I was under blankets and I was still REALLY cold. So I decided to take a warm bath. But my sister had gotten in the shower before so the water was really cold. I prayed to God to make the water warmer. And God did! The water immediately was warm and I wasn’t freezing anymore. A small miracle, but one that meant a lot to me. ❤️ Edit: a lot of you are making jokes about this and here’s what I want you to understand •It was during winter. Everything was FREEZING •I was actually really sick. I had the corona virus, before people really knew it was a thing. But yes, I was actually pretty sick and was sick for two weeks. •The water in the house had stopped being warm for the past two days. Scientifically speaking, how would it have suddenly became warm? It was God.
And how do you know that god made the water hot? Is this really how this works? I'm willing to bet that even if you didn't pray to god, the water would have been hot.
I felt like this a few weeks before, pray and fast; if you have anyone you can talk about this and receive advice, please do so ( in my case, as a teenager growing in my faith, when I feel disconnected with God I ask my mom for advice. It helps a lot.) Yet the best thing you can do is pray in private on your knees and express every little detail of thought (FULLY HONEST) and worries; who better to ask for help than to him. God bless you!
I love how God puts stuff in my youtube feed that I have recently been reading about and meditating om or asking him about :). Often your channel, Mike winger, and Derek prince or John barnett's videos are literally titled after these things. It's really cool. Thank you brother for an excellent video. Thank you God for our brother.
I once had a strange/beautiful experience regarding god. I was new in the faith, maybe had a couple of months since I accepted Christ in my heart. I remember I was so devoted. I prayed, I read the bible, I stopped all secular activities I once did, and really devoted my life to god. Back then I lived with my mom in a small apartment where the kitchen and living room were not separated by wall or anything. I remember I was sleeping on the couch when suddenly something woke me up. I opened my eyes & I SWEAR all I saw was white. It was a super intense white light that the kitchen cabinets that were normally visible from the living room were hardly visible from this intense white light! It lasted a second or two, and then it vanished. I even got scared cause I remember when I saw it, I kinda got up and moved back towards the couch surprised. The light didn't hurt my eyes or anything. I will never forget that experience, EVER. I've had other experiences too, some good and some bad. I just wished I was like I was back then, more devoted to god and his ways :/ Now everything has gotten so hard. Stress and anxiety have just been too much :(
You can get back to where you once were! I know that it’s hard and you will struggle, but the Lord desires a relationship with you❤️❤️ Keep fighting to know him better. I’ll pray for you. God bless
Psalm 55:22 [22]Cast your burden on the Lord [releasing the weight of it] and He will sustain you; He will never allow the [consistently] righteous to be moved (made to slip, fall, or fail). [I Pet. 5:7.] God be with you bro
God spoke to me clear as day once. It was in February of this year. I was newly saved and fasting with my older sister and my pastor told me to pray for the Lord to open my spiritual eyes. I was like okay cool, whatever. So when I went to sleep that same night, a very authoritative voice in my head said “Open!” And it was like I woke up by force (in a good way). When I opened my eyes, my vision was distorted; I couldn’t really see anything. The lights were already on in the apartment but then things started getting even brighter. It was awesome! I didn’t really know what was happening and of course I responded with fear lol. My pastor was congratulating me that God opened my spiritual eyes. Haven’t heard His voice like that since. I want that back! This video is perfect 👌🏾
God gave you that too Show you you are his prophet! That was activation he began in you! You haven’t Heard Gods voice like that again because it’s a season now of preparation! And he’s calling you to go deeper and put on his armor! Because after that encounter the enemy threw every dart at you too make sure you couldn’t! You been through a great storm but God is about to use what the devil meant for evil and turn it into Good and change your whole heart!! Get ready This is gonna be your winning season! Go deeper!!
A fork in the road for me is when I was contemplating life by a river (an atheist at the time) and I noticed a leaf that had washed up... It literally had "OPEN FAITH" written in all caps with some type of purple marker. I looked around and there was no one... No one near by that could have wrote it - even if there had been - the chances of it finding me at that exact time and place... lost... wondering... From that moment on I have kept my eye out for God's grace / synchronicity and I see it... everywhere.
I had something kinda similar as a baby Christian. I was in the bathroom looking in the mirror and something happened I started to pass out and I heard a voice tell me I was righteous. I came to and I will never forget it. I have questioned it but I believe it was true from God or audibly from the Holy Spirit.
Ask God to send you fellow brothers and sisters 😌 let His will be done tho, maybe He wants you, through His Holy Spirit, to bring others to Christ? Through friendship? God blesss you
We All Need Prayer: God I ask You in Jesus’ name, don’t let me be doubleminded or become doubleminded, but stand firm on Your True Word (God's Word). Cause me to read, study, and meditate upon Your True Word and operate in the wisdom, knowledge, and understanding of Your Word daily. Let me always and forever walk in hope, faith, love, obedience, and confidence in You and Your Word. God all that I have asked of You, please do the same for the writer of this prayer and every Christian that I know. Thank You Jesus! Amen, so be it, and it is so!
Sharing.. I got to hear Him audibly three times, and I love to share this because I was born deaf but I heard Him with clarity as if I were a hearing person. He is so amazing that way and there is no barrier for Him!! I have been learning how to hear Him from within. When I am confident I heard Him internally, it feels like a thought that came through my mind that I just knew I did not think on my own. It also sticks.. like you cant forget it or let it go. He usually speaks truthfully and straight to the point. I wish I could hear Him everyday, but I know He speaks to us in many, many different ways and He is always with us.
I was praying a couple days ago, and I completely surrendered everything to him& asked him to take my burdens. and in that moment he put song lyrics on my heart: “come to me when you’re weary and I’ll give you hope when you’re hurtin, I’ll give you rest from your burdens now”. and it just made me feel so amazing bc even though I already knew God was listening, it really touched my heart to hear this from him.
I’m glad I’m not alone in being confused between my own thoughts and what God is saying. I get stressed often feeling like I don’t know what in my life is God and what in my life is not. This helped me a lot. Thanks ❤️
@@ClarifyingChrist I agree bc most, if not all of the time it is us. Ppl have a mind of their own. Esp when I hear so many ppl say "I CAN THINK FOR MYSELF" (key word, self). Thus, one or two things. They are god or it's been them all along. We have been taught to play tricks with our minds. We are fooling ourselves. Most don't even know that they contradict themselves. Ppl don't even listen to themselves talk. They can have two opposing thoughts in their minds and believe both of them at the same time.
There will be no room for double mindedness in my life, loosening the word of 1 chronicles 12:33 to be not of double heart, binding all doubleheartness to the pit of hell upon no return in my life, in the name and blood of Jesus Christ: amen.
Several months ago, the word “Discernment “ appeared to me suddenly. I knew that God’s spirit was speaking to me because I never use this word in my vocabulary., and my spirit was moved to “get up,” and “seek”. I immediately researched the term from the Biblical perspective, and shared how God had given me this word with others. Then it dawned on me that I had asked God in my prayers to help me make the right decisions and judgements about certain situations ; and to give me wisdom and understanding of what is “truth” in order to serve HIM better. It’s amazing that I am viewing this video, and Allen Parr speaks about “discernment” to address this topic. Thank you for your Word Lord, and for anointing Mr. Parr to deliver truth and wisdom through your Son, and the Holy Spirit. May God bless all the true Believers, Doers of His Word, and those seeking and needing salvation! Amen! Hallelujah! God is worthy to be praised!🙏🏽 “Teach me good discernment and knowledge, For I believe in Your commandments.”-PSALMS 119:66 NASB “Teach me good judgment and knowledge: for I have believed thy commandments.”-Psalms 119:66 KJV
🙏🏻🙏🏻You always bring the best videos out to educate us, may the anointing on your life increase. May this Channel grow from strength to strength in Jesus name Amen.
Jesus the messiah is a fictional figure posthumously glorified by fake backdated prophecies, fake miracles, fake eyewitnesses, & made up stories like virgin birth, 12 disciples, crucifixion, resurrection, & walking on water, which were copied from previously glorified figures like: Horus, Attis, Mithra, Krishna, Zoroaster & Dionysus. Religion has got you fooled.
U thank God for ur life & the life of the animals u slaughter to eat. U thank God for choosing u amongst many dead patients to recover from illness. Can't u see how religion uses an imaginary God to fool u into feeling special by exploiting ur hypocrisy narcissism gullibility arrogance & ignorance?? No offense.
I know where earth is but where is heaven and hell at. The words are nouns. Nouns are defined as, a person, place, thing or idea. Is it a place or idea, or both.
You know it’s from God when u have been praying on it for awhile and then u get ur answer, (Prayer) . God isn’t a genie. God speaks to me through the Word, Worship music and sermons especially after I was just praying about it and then I watch the sermon and exactly what I prayed for, the pastor is preaching, Praise God
God had told me one time to not send a text to one of my friends and at that time I was struggling with the friendship and I just heard a strong voice say “NO!!!!” I was like o snappppppppppp what was that lol
Same thing with me, but mine had to do with sharing a Bible scripture. I like to post Bible verses in my profile as they come to me. I told my sister in Christ that I feel God working in me and I don't think he wants me to post that Bible verse. She said, 'well it is God's Word, so there is no harm in sharing it! You know the Enemy doesn't want you to share the Word of God'. But I believe I know the Presence of God enough to know when HE is leading me... so I did NOT post it. Then the Holy Spirit brought to my mind, the disobedience of Moses, when he struck the rock for water more than once so the children of Israel would have water. I still have not posted that scripture and my interpretation of it. And I am going to leave it alone.
@@karenearle5507 God will always want you to share his truth. I'm sure that that message not to post a Bible verse is not from God. He wants you to share his love, the enemy dosnt
So you are god? Hey god, nice to meet you. Now there are billions of gods. That was you, not the god that created the sun, stars and planets (universe). Or is there another god that iam not aware of. Lmsolllllllll
I remember it was like two days ago I asked God to bring me closer to Him, and finishing this video I just realized that He is leading me closer to Him right now!!! I am amazed, and I also dreamed that He showed Himself to me and I cried so hard in my dreams. I love you God
Wow amen this is what I needed thank you. No one can tell me the God I know isn’t real. The accuracy in this video.......... literally just confirmed the battle I’m facing!! Our God gives us the power to overcome sin every time we are tempted. God is teaching me control and discipline. For those that doubt God change your mind now!!! Trust in God even if you don’t understand what’s going on in your own life yet! Amen to this video I love what you’re doing on your channel the Beat. Praise God always!!!🙌
@@thebeatagp why would a loving father (a real loving father) subject their child to temptation. I know I wouldn't but hey I'm not a father either. But this is cruel. Tell your child to cross the street while cars are coming KNOWING they could be seriously injured or kill.
This message couldn’t have came at a better time. A lot of false converts believe they’ve been saved because of a feeling or even some spiritual experiences. But, the Holy Spirit makes you into a new being, a spirit that falls in line with the word. I’ve experience this myself. I had an encounter with the Holy Spirit after reading the bible. After the encounter I was able to speak in tongues. For a while I was following the word but, at some point I kept struggling with sins and following my heart. So I was sure that I didn’t have the Holy Spirit and my spirit wasn’t as matured. To mature my spirit I needed to read the word. Whenever I had a sinful thought I had to always to remember the word to help me get my mind right. If you read the bible and put your pride aside and personal values aside. You realise that we are following Jesus to follow God’s will not our own. And that is what can lead to people being deceived when reading the word, when they read it with their own will in mind. For example, the bible clearly states it’s stand on homosexuality. You may not like what your reading and ignore it out of your own will. The same with some Hebrews saying that salvation is only for the Israelites. Just read the word with no bias and through the Holy Spirit and you’ll see it right. Remember when Satan tempted Jesus, Jesus’ only won because of the word. The word is enough to give you victory.
Did you speak another language or just gibberish like sha na na na leim leem na na na because thats nothing like the original after pentecost. Im sorry for doubting you god bless.
Lion of Judah, Lamb of God I don’t know if you have had the experience but, if you did you’d understand my explanation of how I felt. Basically while reading the bible I start crying, and suddenly I started to repeatedly tense my stomach, as I felt like something was trying to come out from my stomach. My parents heard me and my father (a pastor btw) starts praying for me. And he shouts, “let it come out”. Then suddenly I start to speak in tongues. As I am crying tears of joy. I even start to sing in tongues. I can still speak it now and when I do I can feel the words coming from my stomach, because that is where the spirit resides. When you speak normally, you generally feel the words forming in your head before your brain causes your mouth to say what your thinking. With tongues it’s fully spiritual. It’s like my brain is turned off and I don’t even know what I’ll say until I say it. I am pretty sure I was and still do speak in the language of the Holy Spirit. It was the day I received a spiritual gift. I’m not offended by the way I understand that your comment came from a place of concern and love. God bless my brother.
@@masterstepz9800 thats awesome. The bible says that would be possible for those who believe, they will perform healings etc. Thank you. I believe in you, ive had dreams come true with usually a detail or two changed from fort worth to fort lauderdale or something like that in them. Please forgive me but i see the pentecostal speaking in tongues as just gibberish and not authentic.
Lion of Judah, Lamb of God The bible says that if you speak in tongues with no interpreter it is useless. Especially to athiest, if I speak to them in that language it’s gonna be gibberish. That’s why I just use tongues when praying. I don’t advertise my gift by shouting it out (like my dad lol). But I am looking to find an interpreter or maybe have God give that gift also. Also, another spiritual gift I have is the gift of mercy. I realised this after Allan parr’s vid on spiritual gifts. After seeing it I realise that I am unable to stay angry at someone for more than a day. I just sleep it off and suddenly have the willingness to forgive the person. It happens a lot with my siblings and my friends. I was never an angry person thank god. Cause I look at some people I know that would start a fight over the smallest things. So much Pride. From my perspective I thank God for making me the way I am. I also thank God for your strong faith. I can tell that god is working in you. God bless.
@@masterstepz9800 your blessed to be able to forgive so fast. It's taken me 4yrs and still trying to forgive my nephew for his assault on me. Help me Lord Jesus!
My thoughts are disturbing me alot ...im not able to pray r mediate God's word.... I feel completely broken and away from God... I Rlly want to hear his voice
Put severe limits on your "screen time" - even the good stuff... Our addiction to tech is literally rewiring our brains to the point that we cannot "Be Still" & experience God.... Know that He loves you, sweet one :-)
@bindu Fasting, praying, and consecration. When you fast you put everything away and can focus on God alone, because everything (social media, tv, food, distractions...) away, all you have is the Bible, once you get tired of reading, listen to worship music, then you'll see how praying will be easier. research on how to fast properly.
This is very much needed for me. I have bad anxiety issues and I am constantly thinking about the worst case scenarios, but I know that such negative thinking cannot be from God, my Father who loves me
I hear the Lord's voice clearly through the still small loving voice of the Holy Spirit 😊 the lord jesus said his sheep will hear his voice 😊 O how i love the Lord Jesus 😊 ❤
Thank you Allen Parr for being obedient to Jesus and the Holy Spirit ... all your videos have been extremely helpful . I’m graduating high school and wanting to know God’s will for my life!! So may God bless you and your family! I also pray a hedge of protection over you all in Jesus name. Again thank you so much !! 🙏🏽 and continue to let the Holy Spirit speak through you !
That last line HIT home! People have been calling me wise ever since I could speak And since my name is Solomon, other ppl call me wise before knowing man Makes so much sense
My marriage is hanging on by a thread and I’m crying out to God. I know he can restore our marriage, but I don’t know if I’m hearing him or myself. Pray for my marriage to withstand this storm and for my husband I both to listen for God and to hear him and act on what he says. 🙏🏻
What a wonderful, insightful presentation, I get my affirmations in many ways. My prayers are always answered. I may not get the answer I wanted, but I get God's answer. Remember too, you don't have to be on your knees to pray, TALK TO GOD. He's a great communicator. My long rides alone go along quickly when I engage God.
I really like this. Right on point with everything. I appreciate you do not discredit the idea of hearing from God. Thanks! I would like to add just one thing, something you even touched on. You spoke about how we ask God to speak to us in prayer, and then we hear nothing, but in that is an important step. Hearing God through prayer is greatly aided by pausing and listening. Peace, Brother!
This 8 minute video has spoken to me through years of life just to see and hear what you’ve said has been so helpful I finally just now subscribed I don’t typically get involved in UA-cam but your channel has been one of the most deserving of it so thank you for keeping biblical truth and encouragement and wisdom accessible he speaks through you as well! Thank you and Praise God friend
I subscribed!!!!!! God bless you!!!! I get so excited when I see people praising God and teaching others how to be recognize how worldly matter and spiritual matters affect our lives.
When unsure, measure the thought against the absolutes of God: honesty, unselfishness, purity, and love. If it measures up to all of it, it's God. If not, it's ego.
As a struggling Christian, I feel like I have this question come up often. Figuring out what's from God can be difficult (at least for me). However it is such an important thing and as my relationship with Him continues to grow, I truly hope this will get easier and easier.
Concerning #3 & #4, whether we're seeing advice from other believers, or hear something from a preacher or teacher, it's always important to go back to prayer & scripture to test the advice you received against God's Word. God's Truth matters more than man's opinions. It's important that God is our ultimate final word, not other people's opinions. So, even after getting advice from other believers (in whatever form that may come), test it against scripture and prayer to see if that is what God would have you do.
If you are hearing voices in your head you need psychiatric help esp if them voices aren't your own. You need help. Get off this thread and go see a doctor. That's why god put them here in his place to heal your dumb ass. Break your arm accidentally and call on God to fix it. It will never get fixed. Go to a doc and 9 out of 10 it will be fixed. You Religious ppl need psychiatric help. You are all mentally sick but don't know it.
I have to agree with Invader Goofy, this is probably one of the best videos I've seen you do Allen thank you very much... And one thing I never knew before I became a Christian truly was the power of the Holy Spirit, and also the real power of Prayer...may God bless you Allen and your family and please continue His work
A gutsy but accurate move in putting prayer last on the list. Love what you said about our mind's finite manner and inability to always hear God on our own.
Brother Allen, thanks for your analysis here; having gone through so many instances where I’ve seen God’s leading in the various forms you mentioned, further confirmed, in my mind and spirit, the LORD God moves as you described. May He continue to bless you, keep you, and lead you. And yes, I subscribed!
As an 11 year old christian girl i’ve been talking God lately, but suddenly just now i heard my name being whispered while i was praying to him. So I immediately searched this up. Wow... if you think about it, it’s kinda cool he chooses us to speak to! Things haven’t really been going well at home lately, so i’ve been praying for God to save me. I LOVE your content! I just subscribed.
This is so on time!!!! Wow I’m so glad I came across your channel. I’ve been dealing with this for a while now which has led to doubt and second guessing myself. I’m only a min in but everything is on point and on time. Thank you 😊
This is a great subject and very well spoken. However, I do think that Satan can somehow plant thoughts in people's minds, because he was able to do it to Judas, David, Peter, and let's not forget when he tempted Jesus in the desert, Satan was even able to plant images in the Masters mind. The armor of God does include a helmet for a reason.
sweetboule thanks for your comment. I don’t believe he can. I think he can tempt us for sure. I think we are saying the sane thing. When you say plant, I think you mean the same thing I’m saying which is he can tempt us but can’t make us dwell on an ungodly thought. It is then up to us as to whether we will entertain those thoughts. Because the Holy Spirit lives within us we always have the choice to choose righteousness over unrighteousness.
@@thebeatagp Hi Brother Allen, I love your channel and pray God continues blessing you and your ministry. Maybe we are saying the same thing, but using different words? I do believe that in a broad way Satan is able to use this world to tempt and entice people to commit sin, however the Bible indicates that his ability to influence goes far beyond this. I don't know definitively how Satan does what he does, but it's clear he's able to put specific thoughts, ideas, and suggestions in people's minds. For example, Satan was able to target David and very purposefully enticed David to take a census [ 1 Chron 21:1]. Satan was also able to use Peter in a targeted attempt to dissuade Jesus from the Cross by planting the idea into Peter's mind [Matt 16:21-23]. In Job 1 we learn that Satan was able on two separate occasions on the same day entice separate groups of marauders to kill and capture all of Job's children and servants, allowing only one servant to escape each incident and report the news back directly to Job. We know that Satan is even able to blind the minds of Unbelievers from the truth [ 2 Cor 4:4]. However, no matter the temptation there is no excuse for sin and we have the choice on how to act even on a thought [1 Cor 10:13]. On a personal note; it gives me great relief to know that not every thought of sin, self-doubt or self-pride that I have is my own and I can therefore choose to pay it no mind.
I was wondering this same thing when I watch this video. The time when Satan put in the heart of Judas to betray Him immediately came to mind. I think Satan can plant ideas in our minds but we must fight and rely on the power of Jesus to overcome. Good observation and good video as well!
Last night I was thinking about the devil, then I though “he doesn’t deserve my thoughts” then I went and wiped my eyes and I felt a euphoric feeling wash over my body and heard someone say my name in my left ear in a quiet quick tone. I don’t know if it was god or the devil
@@crystalbrooks2684 but how would he know if it was god bc Satan can come to you disguised as god. Bc he could choose the wrong one. It happens more or less. Like when ppl say damn, I knew I should of did this or that but their mind told them to choose the other from the options formed in their mind. Some ppl say they should go with their first thought. Think long you think wrong contrast to think about it.
When you talked about praying and literally hearing nothing back, I felt it a lot. This happened yesterday when I asked God to speak to me. But, I am starting to get it now. Thank you!
Thank you Alan this is one of the most profound videos I have ever seen I am 73 and most of my life as a Christian I have puzzled with this problem. This is the nuts and bolts of everyday Christianity for those who have chosen to walk with God through Christ, and I am very impressed keep the videos coming. God bless you and keep you
I am having terrible thoughts every night before I sleep and no matter how much I pray they keep coming back. It has been keeping me up for hours. Please pray for me I need help.
A verse will come to mind not only for me but for others. When you meet others who are going through the same troubles you went through, the Holy Spirit will remind you of the verses that helped you so you can help them. I am a widow of 21 years and God has placed other widows in my life that are dealing with grief.
I love the reference again in this video to strength in scripture and having this as a key underlining our messaging from and to God. This year I have felt very close to God through reading his scripture everyday. It really has been soul food for me.
Wow... the Spirit Wind with gusts of 200 mph. Thank you brother for bringing such great Insight and understanding of how to hear God. May God protect you with a hedge of protection... you and your family. May He bless you and increase your territory. May He bind and keep the evil one from you and keep you from the pain of sin. In Jesus name, Amen.
Does God influence our surroundings? For example, if I'm struggling with something and then I see something on the TV, in the newspaper, on the radio that speaks to me...is it possible God put that there for me to hear/ see?
I was obsessed and addicted to watching secular movies, at first when God told me to stop i didn't want to believe and continued watching, while i was watching I realized my spirit was not at rest and I started having feeling anxious, That was when I believed that God spoke to me and asked him for forgiveness 🙏🏾
Keep researching this question for answer because I be Live you may find it. I have some insane dreams and some make sense and others done at all. God still uses dreams to get our attention from the research I've done in the Bible but if you see like a snake in the dream it doesn't help when we look it up online bc most of that stuff isn't biblically based
I have personally had some demonic dreams... running through a scenario similar to the movie SAW... what I want you to remember is, that no matter what your dream is, there is always conviction to be found in it. Find out why your thinking those thoughts, why they are in your subliminal mind. Find out. Convict yourself with the holy spirit. And next time, repent and ask for forgiveness before you sleep. Good luck friend. God bless.
Great question. I don't believe so. As I said in the video, he does not have access to our minds. He can influence us to think about things though but cannot take over your mind as a believer.
I’d like to recommend a book that will be life changing for those who find themselves drawn to it. Conversations with God by Neal Donald Walsh. 😊 If reading is challenging for whatever reason i.e work, busy schedules then I highly recommend the Audible version of the book as you can listen while you carry on with your tasks.
I read that book series. I hate to tell you this, I tell you out of love: but it’s not scripturally sound and it does not speak of Jesus. When I was born again I sold those books on eBay. Research it. Google “is conversations with God biblical?” I did, and was disappointed... but also glad I knew the truth
Alan thanks to you I know what's Right and what's wrong. I pray that your channel reaches greater heights , like reaching an astonishing 1 million subscribers , I thank you for what you have done for our brothers and sisters since the moment you made this channel and I also thank you for your teachings and wonderful work of the Lord Amen
This was beneficial to me. They were things I needed to be reminded of, so to have them in this clear and concise format made it easier to identify the source of my thoughts rightly. Thank you for posting this. God bless you helping others with this work for the Kingdom.
Hey, I want to thank you for making this video! I appreciate you directly taking your answers from God’s Word (it’s a reliable comfort) and helping us grow on our journey with the Lord. I hope God blesses you, even throughout the trials. He’s always there for us. 🙌🏼
When it's not in Gods time, you cant force it. When it is in Gods time, you cant stop it.
bb11 jr I like that!
This is good for us singles who question people that we have met in life and wonder if they were sent from God or not. Dont over think on people and act like you have to reach out before you might lose them. God will open doors and bring people together in His way in His time. Your see His hand in it all just sit back and focus on Him
Amen! Well said
Amen
Sometimes you have to wait and not give up, be patient
I need the holy spirit to hold my hand
GREAT TO MEET ANOTHER DIGGS ON THIS! GOD BLESS YOU.
God bless you! We all do!
I need him now more than ever. I need him to hold me up...not just hold my hand. God Bless you, Brother!
GetHype Gaming Grow up ffs!
Ries Korin Look in the mirror, bud. That guy you’ll see...needs Jesus. 🤷🏻♂️ Maybe you should grow up and see the error of your ways. Alas, it’s pretty apparent you’re not seeking truth, you’re seeking an argument. Unfortunately, I don’t argue with narcissists who need God. There’s no point...you’re empty, and wishing everyone else was as empty as you. Repent...God is faithful in His forgiveness.
I repented of my sins today,
My weight feels lighter
Hallaluja :) Welcome to the feet of Jesus.
Amen Brother welcome
Your weight is lighter
Yooo see you in heaven my dude
Hey I hope you're staying focused on your relationship with Jesus Christ
This is so hard am an over thinker and this makes it even worst 😭
You're not alone 😭🙏
Same !
Me too girl . Also we have the same last name 😳
same 🥺
Been there
I was walking home from work one day around 8 o'clock it just got dark. I had about a 15 min. Walk. Then I heard a voice come from the sky that sounded like a echo shout "turn arooound" the voice was so big it took up the whole sky and when I did turn around there was a brown Oldsmobile 7ft. behind me going 5 mph, with the passenger door wide open and the headlights turned off. when I said omg (because of shock), one guy slam the door closed and the other guy flipped the headlight switch on and drove off past me, screeching the tires. God knows everything. He knew their hearts and that they did not have a spirit of boldness, he knew all it would take was for me to just simply turn around. He did not tell me to run because I would have. they were close enough to me to hop out of the car, bear hug me and wrestle me into the car but GOD knew their hearts. I tried to get the license plate number but it was too dark to see it. I watched them drive all the way down the street till they got out of sight because I wanted to know what direction they were going in to notify the police. Then I bolted and ran the rest of the way home. He Saved my life. 😊🕎🛐 forever grateful.
God bless 🙏🏿❤️
Wow girl that's amazing fr
Wow!!
The holy spirit intervened because you are a child of GOD
God is good!!
I literally thought I was the only one going through this. The Bible is true! Praise God
No indeed. This is and SHOULD be the experience of every believer! The Holy Spirit will talk to you all day every day and guide you at all times!
Amen brother 🙏🏼✝️❤️🦁

GOD can take it away, apply faith and effort. We love you sister

You WILL persevere, its just a matter of when
@@krischurch3763 I Love Jesus Freak!! Yes I will get back into the Word and Study. Jesus died for Everyone who Trusts in him. Thank You Brother in Christ!!
I'm a young Christian and I really want to hear God's voice. I'm passionate and I think I hear God's voice, it's just that I think it's just me. And then when I feel like He's trying to talk to me, I feel like I'm being tempted by the enemy. I really need spiritual help to define whether I'm hearing in mind isn't a temptation. I really need you guys to pray for me, please. Please pray for me. And stay strong in the Lord!
I'm dealing with the same thing, let's pray for eachother 😊
Same, I am also young and eager for understanding of God's voice. I believe that Satan tempts and tries to distract and confuse our minds because he knows of the potential that we have to be used and matured by God. Don't give up and don't give in! Now, I have before fallen under great deception by the thoughts of my mind. I was "trying too hard" to be closer to God through works (HE does not judge by works alone, but by faith). I listened to crazed instructions given to me in my mind that harmed me physically, mentally, emotionally, and spiritually. I had been tossed and turned as the waves by evil demons due to my own anxiety. I behaved in ways of a obsessive compulsive disorder (OCD) to perfect every thing that I did, the way that I prayed, worshiped, etc. Behavior as this denies the sufficiency of the gift of salvation that is Christ Jesus. This is an example of Satan using one's faith against them. I prayed continuously on my confusion, frustration and stress, and Jesus rescued me! HE taught me that HE'd never place us in harm's way and that His word is always confirmed: through His Word (try the Spirit by the Spirit), through an outside source in our surroundings that lines up to meet the sense and necessity of the instruction to be done (for ex., in the middle of a sermon, God would not tell you to do something obnoxious; true worship displays, not distracts; the Spirit of God would not interrupt the flow of the Spirit (itself)), or by the consistency of that thought , perhaps days past, as God is patient and will not abruptly change HIS instructions.Remember that not every though that we think is from God, and there is NOTHING wrong with seeking clarity of God's word to you or instruction (what, not why). In fact, in the Word of God, we are encouraged to ask for wisdom, and it we shall be granted by God. God is not the author of CHAOS or CONFUSION, but peace. Satan is the author of confusion and chaos. When you suspect that it is Satan who begins to tempt or confuse your mind with odd instructions, simply say "Satan, get behind (away from) me, in the Name of Jesus!" or "Satan, you are the author of chaos and confusion. God is of love, truth, and peace. I rebuke you in the Name of Jesus!" God does not tempt with evil nor provoke one to wrath because of instruction.When it is God instructing you, the outcome of your actions would be peaceful and wise. Let us be prayerful, still, for ourselves and this nation as a whole, that we all may come to repent of our sins, trust and love Jesus completely.
We must have more faith and confidence in the Word of God and HIS promises to us as given! For it is written, "if any of you lacks wisdom, let him ask God, who gives generously to all without reproach, and it will be given him. But let him ask in faith, with no doubting, for the one who doubts is like a wave of the sea that is driven and tossed by the wind. For that person must not suppose that he will receive anything from the Lord; he is a double-minded man, unstable in all his ways."-James 1:5-8
Prayers to you🙏🏽, in YESHUA's name
@@lowestoflows2 I'm not reading all that.
Just today I cried and I told God that I put my worry’s and anxiety’s in him and I put my trust in him and I asked him if he wanted to say anything to me and a though popped in my mind saying “I love you” not in my voice, not in a voice per say but just a thought. I felt an overwhelming feeling of happiness and joy and safety, and I started crying. I told him I loved him too. I’ve never heard God speak to me. But I felt that was him. I feel like I’m doing something right. I feel worry less and like a weight is lifted off me. I feel happy and okay.
How are you doing now ?
God is so good!
God bless you!!
Amen!
I once was watching videos of god, and a random feeling of joy took over my body as I looked outside of my window. It was amazing.
Whenever I'm about to sin, sinning, or sinned, I always hear a small voice telling me to turn to God. I am thankful.
So you never sin? Seriously? Never ever?
LOUDSTEEL he didn’t say that
@@stefvuho78 they say they have.
You was gonna do it anyway. What you probably was thinking was about getting caught and then punish you little pussy. Not god.
You ever feel so fed up that u just dont wanna live no more.. so overwhelmed with everything that you just dont care anymore. You just find urself pushing god away
"That's why you should not tell people 'Follow Your Heart.' " I Love That
Follow your heart:
Suicide, ya don't follow your heart
I know God spoke to me earlier today. I was sick and I was so so so cold! I was freezing! I was under blankets and I was still REALLY cold. So I decided to take a warm bath. But my sister had gotten in the shower before so the water was really cold. I prayed to God to make the water warmer. And God did! The water immediately was warm and I wasn’t freezing anymore. A small miracle, but one that meant a lot to me. ❤️
Edit: a lot of you are making jokes about this and here’s what I want you to understand
•It was during winter. Everything was FREEZING
•I was actually really sick. I had the corona virus, before people really knew it was a thing. But yes, I was actually pretty sick and was sick for two weeks.
•The water in the house had stopped being warm for the past two days. Scientifically speaking, how would it have suddenly became warm? It was God.
Hmm, weird. He'll warm up the water for you but he wont heal people dying of terminal illness. Makes sense
@Brett Clayton you have to admit that's ridiculous, right? Please tell me your not blind to that.
And how do you know that god made the water hot? Is this really how this works? I'm willing to bet that even if you didn't pray to god, the water would have been hot.
lol my buttcheek had an itch while i was holding my baby....i asked him to make it stop itching....and he did ! true story
TheSweats yes Yahweh heals, He will and He has
Check testimonies
I’m a Christian but I been having bad thoughts and I don’t feel like myself, i feel away from God.
We’re not perfect, but keep praying, reading The Word and find someone you can be accountable to :-) Praying for you 🤍
Same i hear a voice that tells me to sell my soul and i always tell no (on my mind)
Same here stay strong
Also sing christian songs and GIVE PRAISE to Jesus
I felt like this a few weeks before, pray and fast; if you have anyone you can talk about this and receive advice, please do so ( in my case, as a teenager growing in my faith, when I feel disconnected with God I ask my mom for advice. It helps a lot.) Yet the best thing you can do is pray in private on your knees and express every little detail of thought (FULLY HONEST) and worries; who better to ask for help than to him. God bless you!
I love how God puts stuff in my youtube feed that I have recently been reading about and meditating om or asking him about :). Often your channel, Mike winger, and Derek prince or John barnett's videos are literally titled after these things. It's really cool. Thank you brother for an excellent video. Thank you God for our brother.
Me too, God is good 😊
He works in ways.. we don't understand.. but are for our betterment...😊
Same here brother! God bless you!! ❤️

I once had a strange/beautiful experience regarding god.
I was new in the faith, maybe had a couple of months since I accepted Christ in my heart. I remember I was so devoted. I prayed, I read the bible, I stopped all secular activities I once did, and really devoted my life to god. Back then I lived with my mom in a small apartment where the kitchen and living room were not separated by wall or anything. I remember I was sleeping on the couch when suddenly something woke me up. I opened my eyes & I SWEAR all I saw was white. It was a super intense white light that the kitchen cabinets that were normally visible from the living room were hardly visible from this intense white light! It lasted a second or two, and then it vanished. I even got scared cause I remember when I saw it, I kinda got up and moved back towards the couch surprised. The light didn't hurt my eyes or anything. I will never forget that experience, EVER.
I've had other experiences too, some good and some bad. I just wished I was like I was back then, more devoted to god and his ways :/ Now everything has gotten so hard. Stress and anxiety have just been too much :(
Jose Rodriguez Not gonna lie, that sounds awesome dude 😭
It’s not too much love!! We have overcome them by the blood of the lamb 😌 cast all your anxieties on Him because He cares for you 💕
You can get back to where you once were! I know that it’s hard and you will struggle, but the Lord desires a relationship with you❤️❤️ Keep fighting to know him better. I’ll pray for you. God bless
Psalm 55:22
[22]Cast your burden on the Lord [releasing the weight of it] and He will sustain you; He will never allow the [consistently] righteous to be moved (made to slip, fall, or fail). [I Pet. 5:7.]
God be with you bro
@@naaayorkorarmah2677 amen
God spoke to me clear as day once. It was in February of this year. I was newly saved and fasting with my older sister and my pastor told me to pray for the Lord to open my spiritual eyes. I was like okay cool, whatever. So when I went to sleep that same night, a very authoritative voice in my head said “Open!” And it was like I woke up by force (in a good way). When I opened my eyes, my vision was distorted; I couldn’t really see anything. The lights were already on in the apartment but then things started getting even brighter. It was awesome! I didn’t really know what was happening and of course I responded with fear lol. My pastor was congratulating me that God opened my spiritual eyes. Haven’t heard His voice like that since. I want that back! This video is perfect 👌🏾
Nicole Forson thank you for sharing your experience.
Awesome!
God gave you that too Show you you are his prophet! That was activation he began in you! You haven’t Heard Gods voice like that again because it’s a season now of preparation! And he’s calling you to go deeper and put on his armor! Because after that encounter the enemy threw every dart at you too make sure you couldn’t! You been through a great storm but God is about to use what the devil meant for evil and turn it into Good and change your whole heart!! Get ready This is gonna be your winning season! Go deeper!!
A fork in the road for me is when I was contemplating life by a river (an atheist at the time) and I noticed a leaf that had washed up... It literally had "OPEN FAITH" written in all caps with some type of purple marker. I looked around and there was no one... No one near by that could have wrote it - even if there had been - the chances of it finding me at that exact time and place... lost... wondering... From that moment on I have kept my eye out for God's grace / synchronicity and I see it... everywhere.
I had something kinda similar as a baby Christian. I was in the bathroom looking in the mirror and something happened I started to pass out and I heard a voice tell me I was righteous. I came to and I will never forget it. I have questioned it but I believe it was true from God or audibly from the Holy Spirit.
I wish I was not the only christian in my ungodly class on school and family
Why do you have the valknut as your icon? Its linked to Odin.
Ask God to send you fellow brothers and sisters 😌 let His will be done tho, maybe He wants you, through His Holy Spirit, to bring others to Christ? Through friendship?
God blesss you
Find a good church it’s like family
Same here
Leave public school perhaps
We All Need Prayer: God I ask You in Jesus’ name, don’t let me be doubleminded or become doubleminded, but stand firm on Your True Word (God's Word). Cause me to read, study, and meditate upon Your True Word and operate in the wisdom, knowledge, and understanding of Your Word daily. Let me always and forever walk in hope, faith, love, obedience, and confidence in You and Your Word. God all that I have asked of You, please do the same for the writer of this prayer and every Christian that I know. Thank You Jesus! Amen, so be it, and it is so!

I really like this prayer. Thanks a lot. God bless You!
Sharing.. I got to hear Him audibly three times, and I love to share this because I was born deaf but I heard Him with clarity as if I were a hearing person. He is so amazing that way and there is no barrier for Him!! I have been learning how to hear Him from within. When I am confident I heard Him internally, it feels like a thought that came through my mind that I just knew I did not think on my own. It also sticks.. like you cant forget it or let it go. He usually speaks truthfully and straight to the point. I wish I could hear Him everyday, but I know He speaks to us in many, many different ways and He is always with us.
That's beautiful 💜
I was praying a couple days ago, and I completely surrendered everything to him& asked him to take my burdens. and in that moment he put song lyrics on my heart: “come to me when you’re weary and I’ll give you hope when you’re hurtin, I’ll give you rest from your burdens now”. and it just made me feel so amazing bc even though I already knew God was listening, it really touched my heart to hear this from him.
I’m glad I’m not alone in being confused between my own thoughts and what God is saying. I get stressed often feeling like I don’t know what in my life is God and what in my life is not. This helped me a lot. Thanks ❤️
Thanks so much Em oh Lee, I'm so glad you found it helpful! Thanks again for taking the time to watch. God bless Em oh Lee,
You are definitely not alone! Wouldn't it be great if God just told us "Hey! Listen this one is from me!" 😆
Emily Brockman hi Emily, check out Hebrews 58, promises for fasting. Fasting helps.
@@ClarifyingChrist I agree bc most, if not all of the time it is us. Ppl have a mind of their own. Esp when I hear so many ppl say "I CAN THINK FOR MYSELF" (key word, self). Thus, one or two things. They are god or it's been them all along.
We have been taught to play tricks with our minds. We are fooling ourselves. Most don't even know that they contradict themselves.
Ppl don't even listen to themselves talk. They can have two opposing thoughts in their minds and believe both of them at the same time.
There will be no room for double mindedness in my life, loosening the word of 1 chronicles 12:33 to be not of double heart, binding all doubleheartness to the pit of hell upon no return in my life, in the name and blood of Jesus Christ: amen.
Yes Hallelujah
Blood, that sounds satanic. But hey, I could be wrong
Ok
Several months ago, the word “Discernment “ appeared to me suddenly. I knew that God’s spirit was speaking to me because I never use this word in my vocabulary., and my spirit was moved to “get up,” and “seek”. I immediately researched the term from the Biblical perspective, and shared how God had given me this word with others. Then it dawned on me that I had asked God in my prayers to help me make the right decisions and judgements about certain situations ; and to give me wisdom and understanding of what is “truth” in order to serve HIM better. It’s amazing that I am viewing this video, and Allen Parr speaks about “discernment” to address this topic. Thank you for your Word Lord, and for anointing Mr. Parr to deliver truth and wisdom through your Son, and the Holy Spirit. May God bless all the true Believers, Doers of His Word, and those seeking and needing salvation! Amen! Hallelujah! God is worthy to be praised!🙏🏽

What does it mean to grow from strength to strength ? Idle words to sound better ?
Jesus the messiah is a fictional figure posthumously glorified by fake backdated prophecies, fake miracles, fake eyewitnesses, & made up stories like virgin birth, 12 disciples, crucifixion, resurrection, & walking on water, which were copied from previously glorified figures like: Horus, Attis, Mithra, Krishna, Zoroaster & Dionysus. Religion has got you fooled.
U thank God for ur life & the life of the animals u slaughter to eat. U thank God for choosing u amongst many dead patients to recover from illness. Can't u see how religion uses an imaginary God to fool u into feeling special by exploiting ur hypocrisy narcissism gullibility arrogance & ignorance?? No offense.
BLESSED BE HIM, HE WHO SITS ON THE THRONE AND IS THE RULER OVER HEAVEN, EARTH, AND HELL!
I know where earth is but where is heaven and hell at. The words are nouns. Nouns are defined as, a person, place, thing or idea. Is it a place or idea, or both.
Skyjack hell is in the middle of the earth and the 3rd heaven is on the Northside of the universe wayyy past the second heaven
Please remember TO tell all children about our blessed Lord AND savior JESUS CHRIST Thank YOU amen.
You know it’s from God when u have been praying on it for awhile and then u get ur answer, (Prayer) . God isn’t a genie. God speaks to me through the Word, Worship music and sermons especially after I was just praying about it and then I watch the sermon and exactly what I prayed for, the pastor is preaching, Praise God
And it should be scripturally backed up, I trust thoughts that remind me of the scriptures.
God had told me one time to not send a text to one of my friends and at that time I was struggling with the friendship and I just heard a strong voice say “NO!!!!” I was like o snappppppppppp what was that lol
BigGucciSosaBaby DCUO I had the same experience! I was like okay God imma be obedient lol
Same thing with me, but mine had to do with sharing a Bible scripture. I like to post Bible verses in my profile as they come to me.
I told my sister in Christ that I feel God working in me and I don't think he wants me to post that Bible verse. She said, 'well it is God's Word, so there is no harm in sharing it! You know the Enemy doesn't want you to share the Word of God'. But I believe I know the Presence of God enough to know when HE is leading me... so I did NOT post it. Then the Holy Spirit brought to my mind, the disobedience of Moses, when he struck the rock for water more than once so the children of Israel would have water. I still have not posted that scripture and my interpretation of it. And I am going to leave it alone.
@@karenearle5507 God will always want you to share his truth. I'm sure that that message not to post a Bible verse is not from God. He wants you to share his love, the enemy dosnt

So you are god? Hey god, nice to meet you. Now there are billions of gods. That was you, not the god that created the sun, stars and planets (universe). Or is there another god that iam not aware of. Lmsolllllllll
I remember it was like two days ago I asked God to bring me closer to Him, and finishing this video I just realized that He is leading me closer to Him right now!!! I am amazed, and I also dreamed that He showed Himself to me and I cried so hard in my dreams. I love you God
Blessings to you beautiful soul
right?? the fact that we are all here shows we are at least trying. I hope he knows, I know He knows. Amen!!
Wow amen this is what I needed thank you. No one can tell me the God I know isn’t real. The accuracy in this video.......... literally just confirmed the battle I’m facing!! Our God gives us the power to overcome sin every time we are tempted. God is teaching me control and discipline. For those that doubt God change your mind now!!! Trust in God even if you don’t understand what’s going on in your own life yet! Amen to this video I love what you’re doing on your channel the Beat. Praise God always!!!🙌
Brina Adams that’s awesome! Thanks so much for sharing this. It is much appreciated!
You’re welcome
@@thebeatagp why would a loving father (a real loving father) subject their child to temptation. I know I wouldn't but hey I'm not a father either. But this is cruel. Tell your child to cross the street while cars are coming KNOWING they could be seriously injured or kill.
This message couldn’t have came at a better time. A lot of false converts believe they’ve been saved because of a feeling or even some spiritual experiences. But, the Holy Spirit makes you into a new being, a spirit that falls in line with the word.
I’ve experience this myself. I had an encounter with the Holy Spirit after reading the bible. After the encounter I was able to speak in tongues. For a while I was following the word but, at some point I kept struggling with sins and following my heart. So I was sure that I didn’t have the Holy Spirit and my spirit wasn’t as matured.
To mature my spirit I needed to read the word. Whenever I had a sinful thought I had to always to remember the word to help me get my mind right.
If you read the bible and put your pride aside and personal values aside. You realise that we are following Jesus to follow God’s will not our own. And that is what can lead to people being deceived when reading the word, when they read it with their own will in mind.
For example, the bible clearly states it’s stand on homosexuality. You may not like what your reading and ignore it out of your own will. The same with some Hebrews saying that salvation is only for the Israelites. Just read the word with no bias and through the Holy Spirit and you’ll see it right.
Remember when Satan tempted Jesus, Jesus’ only won because of the word. The word is enough to give you victory.
Did you speak another language or just gibberish like sha na na na leim leem na na na because thats nothing like the original after pentecost. Im sorry for doubting you god bless.
Lion of Judah, Lamb of God
I don’t know if you have had the experience but, if you did you’d understand my explanation of how I felt.
Basically while reading the bible I start crying, and suddenly I started to repeatedly tense my stomach, as I felt like something was trying to come out from my stomach. My parents heard me and my father (a pastor btw) starts praying for me. And he shouts, “let it come out”. Then suddenly I start to speak in tongues. As I am crying tears of joy. I even start to sing in tongues.
I can still speak it now and when I do I can feel the words coming from my stomach, because that is where the spirit resides. When you speak normally, you generally feel the words forming in your head before your brain causes your mouth to say what your thinking.
With tongues it’s fully spiritual. It’s like my brain is turned off and I don’t even know what I’ll say until I say it. I am pretty sure I was and still do speak in the language of the Holy Spirit. It was the day I received a spiritual gift.
I’m not offended by the way I understand that your comment came from a place of concern and love. God bless my brother.
@@masterstepz9800 thats awesome. The bible says that would be possible for those who believe, they will perform healings etc. Thank you. I believe in you, ive had dreams come true with usually a detail or two changed from fort worth to fort lauderdale or something like that in them. Please forgive me but i see the pentecostal speaking in tongues as just gibberish and not authentic.
Lion of Judah, Lamb of God
The bible says that if you speak in tongues with no interpreter it is useless. Especially to athiest, if I speak to them in that language it’s gonna be gibberish. That’s why I just use tongues when praying. I don’t advertise my gift by shouting it out (like my dad lol). But I am looking to find an interpreter or maybe have God give that gift also.
Also, another spiritual gift I have is the gift of mercy. I realised this after Allan parr’s vid on spiritual gifts. After seeing it I realise that I am unable to stay angry at someone for more than a day. I just sleep it off and suddenly have the willingness to forgive the person. It happens a lot with my siblings and my friends. I was never an angry person thank god. Cause I look at some people I know that would start a fight over the smallest things. So much Pride. From my perspective I thank God for making me the way I am.
I also thank God for your strong faith. I can tell that god is working in you. God bless.
@@masterstepz9800 your blessed to be able to forgive so fast. It's taken me 4yrs and still trying to forgive my nephew for his assault on me. Help me Lord Jesus!
My thoughts are disturbing me alot ...im not able to pray r mediate God's word.... I feel completely broken and away from God... I Rlly want to hear his voice
Everything will be alright brother/sister. How are you doing now? I’m going to pray for you!
Put severe limits on your "screen time" - even the good stuff... Our addiction to tech is literally rewiring our brains to the point that we cannot "Be Still" & experience God.... Know that He loves you, sweet one :-)
@bindu Fasting, praying, and consecration. When you fast you put everything away and can focus on God alone, because everything (social media, tv, food, distractions...) away, all you have is the Bible, once you get tired of reading, listen to worship music, then you'll see how praying will be easier. research on how to fast properly.
Try early morning
🙏🙏
This is very much needed for me. I have bad anxiety issues and I am constantly thinking about the worst case scenarios, but I know that such negative thinking cannot be from God, my Father who loves me
I have been asking this very question lately and the Lord answered me through you. Thank you so much brother God bless!
Thanks so much Yvette Hostler, I'm so glad you found it helpful! Thanks again for taking the time to watch. God bless Yvette Hostler,
@@thebeatagp Thank you for replying God bless
I hear the Lord's voice clearly through the still small loving voice of the Holy Spirit 😊 the lord jesus said his sheep will hear his voice 😊 O how i love the Lord Jesus 😊 ❤
1. Word of God
2. Through Holy Spirit
3. Speaks through community
4. Through preaching
5. Circumstances
6. Prayer
Thank youuuuu❤ God bless you
You find your confidence in God and his grace. Understand that you are not perfect, but when I seek the lord I am at peace.
“Being in God’s Word” yes, that’s such important advice!
God is so good I was literally just thinking and struggling with this today. Thanks Allen! Be encouraged you're helping a lot of people :)
Love your message, and i love how excited you are when you talk about God. You're really on it brother.
Thank you Allen Parr for being obedient to Jesus and the Holy Spirit ... all your videos have been extremely helpful . I’m graduating high school and wanting to know God’s will for my life!! So may God bless you and your family! I also pray a hedge of protection over you all in Jesus name. Again thank you so much !! 🙏🏽 and continue to let the Holy Spirit speak through you !
That last line HIT home!
People have been calling me wise ever since I could speak
And since my name is Solomon, other ppl call me wise before knowing man
Makes so much sense
My marriage is hanging on by a thread and I’m crying out to God. I know he can restore our marriage, but I don’t know if I’m hearing him or myself. Pray for my marriage to withstand this storm and for my husband I both to listen for God and to hear him and act on what he says. 🙏🏻
Hi there @kendrainselman8369 , hoping you guys pulled through
I'll pray
You must read the scriptures for his direction
What a wonderful, insightful presentation, I get my affirmations in many ways. My prayers are always answered. I may not get the answer I wanted, but I get God's answer. Remember too, you don't have to be on your knees to pray, TALK TO GOD. He's a great communicator. My long rides alone go along quickly when I engage God.
God answers my prayers. He is so great I just love him cause of who he is :)
Exactly what I need , right on time

God!
I’m begging you to save me from what I am battling right now.
I’m down bad and I need you more than ever.
Please save me from myself!
I really like this. Right on point with everything. I appreciate you do not discredit the idea of hearing from God. Thanks!
I would like to add just one thing, something you even touched on. You spoke about how we ask God to speak to us in prayer, and then we hear nothing, but in that is an important step.
Hearing God through prayer is greatly aided by pausing and listening.
Peace, Brother!
This 8 minute video has spoken to me through years of life just to see and hear what you’ve said has been so helpful I finally just now subscribed I don’t typically get involved in UA-cam but your channel has been one of the most deserving of it so thank you for keeping biblical truth and encouragement and wisdom accessible he speaks through you as well! Thank you and Praise God friend
Praise God Amen we are free
I subscribed!!!!!! God bless you!!!! I get so excited when I see people praising God and teaching others how to be recognize how worldly matter and spiritual matters affect our lives.
Why was I just thinking about this with so much frustration. Thank God you are always on time!
I've been asking God to wipe away those sinful thoughts and now this video pops up God you work in mysterious but amazing ways
I love these videos: the clarity, the practicality, and the sheer honesty.
This was the best video you ever made dude, thank you 🙏🏿 ✊🏿.
Wow. Aw man that was very kind. Thanks so much Invader Goofy!
Invader Goofy fuck god fuck jesus fuck jeaven fuck hell fuck devil fuck human fuck u fuck me fuck everybody fuck everything anything FUCK FUCK FUCK
When unsure, measure the thought against the absolutes of God: honesty, unselfishness, purity, and love. If it measures up to all of it, it's God. If not, it's ego.
You funny.
As a struggling Christian, I feel like I have this question come up often. Figuring out what's from God can be difficult (at least for me). However it is such an important thing and as my relationship with Him continues to grow, I truly hope this will get easier and easier.
How are you doing now?
@@avastarlight265 I continue to work on my relationship with Him and listen for Him to guide me!
Same
You’re one of the few UA-cam’s that I actually trust. I just get such an honest and loving vibe! Love your videos
i love when God speaks to me it leaves me smiling for sooo long I'm not worthy!! wow how blessed we are!!! God is miraculous Amen
Concerning #3 & #4, whether we're seeing advice from other believers, or hear something from a preacher or teacher, it's always important to go back to prayer & scripture to test the advice you received against God's Word. God's Truth matters more than man's opinions. It's important that God is our ultimate final word, not other people's opinions. So, even after getting advice from other believers (in whatever form that may come), test it against scripture and prayer to see if that is what God would have you do.
I've heard a Voice several times, usually giving me advice or warnings
Hopefully that's from God. I know I've heard some voices (physically heard them) and they were NOT from God.
I have as well
It's the holy spirit in you! :D
It's Schizophrenia my brother
If you are hearing voices in your head you need psychiatric help esp if them voices aren't your own. You need help. Get off this thread and go see a doctor. That's why god put them here in his place to heal your dumb ass. Break your arm accidentally and call on God to fix it. It will never get fixed. Go to a doc and 9 out of 10 it will be fixed. You Religious ppl need psychiatric help. You are all mentally sick but don't know it.
I have to agree with Invader Goofy, this is probably one of the best videos I've seen you do Allen thank you very much... And one thing I never knew before I became a Christian truly was the power of the Holy Spirit, and also the real power of Prayer...may God bless you Allen and your family and please continue His work
A gutsy but accurate move in putting prayer last on the list. Love what you said about our mind's finite manner and inability to always hear God on our own.
Been asking myself for a while. I love your channel. GOD bless you.
I personally always thoughts about this but I'm afraid to ask thanks for making my day.
Cheers.
Thanks so much Jefferson Vijay, I'm so glad you found it helpful! Thanks again for taking the time to watch. God bless Jefferson Vijay,
@@thebeatagp Thanks you for your help, your welcome.
Brother Allen, thanks for your analysis here; having gone through so many instances where I’ve seen God’s leading in the various forms you mentioned, further confirmed, in my mind and spirit, the LORD God moves as you described. May He continue to bless you, keep you, and lead you. And yes, I subscribed!
Yayy!! I've always wondered about this. God bless you 🙏💕
kjack3211 you’re welcome sis.
God bless you, Mr Parr! Truly the way God uses you and speaks through you is incredible
As an 11 year old christian girl i’ve been talking God lately, but suddenly just now i heard my name being whispered while i was praying to him. So I immediately searched this up. Wow... if you think about it, it’s kinda cool he chooses us to speak to! Things haven’t really been going well at home lately, so i’ve been praying for God to save me. I LOVE your content! I just subscribed.
This is so on time!!!! Wow I’m so glad I came across your channel. I’ve been dealing with this for a while now which has led to doubt and second guessing myself. I’m only a min in but everything is on point and on time. Thank you 😊
This is a great subject and very well spoken. However, I do think that Satan can somehow plant thoughts in people's minds, because he was able to do it to Judas, David, Peter, and let's not forget when he tempted Jesus in the desert, Satan was even able to plant images in the Masters mind. The armor of God does include a helmet for a reason.
sweetboule thanks for your comment. I don’t believe he can. I think he can tempt us for sure. I think we are saying the sane thing. When you say plant, I think you mean the same thing I’m saying which is he can tempt us but can’t make us dwell on an ungodly thought. It is then up to us as to whether we will entertain those thoughts. Because the Holy Spirit lives within us we always have the choice to choose righteousness over unrighteousness.
@@thebeatagp
Hi Brother Allen, I love your channel and pray God continues blessing you and your ministry. Maybe we are saying the same thing, but using different words?
I do believe that in a broad way Satan is able to use this world to tempt and entice people to commit sin, however the Bible indicates that his ability to influence goes far beyond this.
I don't know definitively how Satan does what he does, but it's clear he's able to put specific thoughts, ideas, and suggestions in people's minds. For example, Satan was able to target David and very purposefully enticed David to take a census [ 1 Chron 21:1]. Satan was also able to use Peter in a targeted attempt to dissuade Jesus from the Cross by planting the idea into Peter's mind [Matt 16:21-23]. In Job 1 we learn that Satan was able on two separate occasions on the same day entice separate groups of marauders to kill and capture all of Job's children and servants, allowing only one servant to escape each incident and report the news back directly to Job. We know that Satan is even able to blind the minds of Unbelievers from the truth [ 2 Cor 4:4].
However, no matter the temptation there is no excuse for sin and we have the choice on how to act even on a thought [1 Cor 10:13].
On a personal note; it gives me great relief to know that not every thought of sin, self-doubt or self-pride that I have is my own and I can therefore choose to pay it no mind.
I was wondering this same thing when I watch this video. The time when Satan put in the heart of Judas to betray Him immediately came to mind. I think Satan can plant ideas in our minds but we must fight and rely on the power of Jesus to overcome. Good observation and good video as well!
@@kennyq45 Thanks man,
I agree
Last night I was thinking about the devil, then I though “he doesn’t deserve my thoughts” then I went and wiped my eyes and I felt a euphoric feeling wash over my body and heard someone say my name in my left ear in a quiet quick tone. I don’t know if it was god or the devil
Yikes that’s crazy 😯 I would say ask God for discernment there.
Wolf728 oh my gosh! Same first time I think it was God but I’m not so sure I heard it from my left ear as well!
I though I was the only one going through this God Bless Y’all
@@crystalbrooks2684 but how would he know if it was god bc Satan can come to you disguised as god. Bc he could choose the wrong one. It happens more or less. Like when ppl say damn, I knew I should of did this or that but their mind told them to choose the other from the options formed in their mind. Some ppl say they should go with their first thought. Think long you think wrong contrast to think about it.
Its called indoctrination..
When you talked about praying and literally hearing nothing back, I felt it a lot. This happened yesterday when I asked God to speak to me. But, I am starting to get it now. Thank you!
Thank you Alan this is one of the most profound videos I have ever seen I am 73 and most of my life as a Christian I have puzzled with this problem. This is the nuts and bolts of everyday Christianity for those who have chosen to walk with God through Christ, and I am very impressed keep the videos coming. God bless you and keep you
I am having terrible thoughts every night before I sleep and no matter how much I pray they keep coming back. It has been keeping me up for hours. Please pray for me I need help.
This is amazing I was bragging about myself the other day then Matthew 23:12 popped up in my head
Terrific. As always. Thank you!!
You're welcome Robert Beck! Thanks so much!
A verse will come to mind not only for me but for others. When you meet others who are going through the same troubles you went through, the Holy Spirit will remind you of the verses that helped you so you can help them. I am a widow of 21 years and God has placed other widows in my life that are dealing with grief.
I love the reference again in this video to strength in scripture and having this as a key underlining our messaging from and to God. This year I have felt very close to God through reading his scripture everyday. It really has been soul food for me.
I like this guy! He's got it going on and makes sense.
From the thumbnail...i really thought he was Denzel Washington.
Ha. I get that all the time. Take care Jay,
@jay vansickle I thought you were Matt Damon
If there's an open casting call for his over weight, balding brother...I am so in!
😂😂😂 FACTS ❗️
Jay Vansickle I just had this same thought as well and "said to myself" "He looks like Denzel Washington"
Thank you for making these videos brother. It really clarifies a lot!
It started with GOD who brought me to GOD. So as HE did it first, he keeps on leading. As easy as it is.
Wow... the Spirit Wind with gusts of 200 mph. Thank you brother for bringing such great Insight and understanding of how to hear God. May God protect you with a hedge of protection... you and your family. May He bless you and increase your territory. May He bind and keep the evil one from you and keep you from the pain of sin. In Jesus name, Amen.
God Bless Us All!
Does God influence our surroundings? For example, if I'm struggling with something and then I see something on the TV, in the newspaper, on the radio that speaks to me...is it possible God put that there for me to hear/ see?
Pls pray for me for the holy spirit to follow me everywhere when I even die
Why don't you follow the spirit .... Instead of Him following You?
🙏🙏
🎶 I can’t even walk without Him holding my hand 🎵
I was obsessed and addicted to watching secular movies, at first when God told me to stop i didn't want to believe and continued watching, while i was watching I realized my spirit was not at rest and I started having feeling anxious,
That was when I believed that God spoke to me and asked him for forgiveness 🙏🏾
Thank you Allen. I struggle with this.
feuerrmFilms don’t we all! Thx.
What about dreams? Can the devil control/give us dreams about things we struggle with?
Keep researching this question for answer because I be Live you may find it. I have some insane dreams and some make sense and others done at all. God still uses dreams to get our attention from the research I've done in the Bible but if you see like a snake in the dream it doesn't help when we look it up online bc most of that stuff isn't biblically based
I have personally had some demonic dreams... running through a scenario similar to the movie SAW... what I want you to remember is, that no matter what your dream is, there is always conviction to be found in it. Find out why your thinking those thoughts, why they are in your subliminal mind. Find out. Convict yourself with the holy spirit. And next time, repent and ask for forgiveness before you sleep. Good luck friend. God bless.
@@TheHeartOfTheHour1 well said ben
Great question. I don't believe so. As I said in the video, he does not have access to our minds. He can influence us to think about things though but cannot take over your mind as a believer.
@@thebeatagp god bless you allen
I’d like to recommend a book that will be life changing for those who find themselves drawn to it.
Conversations with God by Neal Donald Walsh. 😊
If reading is challenging for whatever reason i.e work, busy schedules then I highly recommend the Audible version of the book as you can listen while you carry on with your tasks.
I read that book series. I hate to tell you this, I tell you out of love: but it’s not scripturally sound and it does not speak of Jesus. When I was born again I sold those books on eBay. Research it. Google “is conversations with God biblical?” I did, and was disappointed... but also glad I knew the truth
Thank you very much, I’m sorry for all of my sins.
I regularly pray . " Lord please help me to know the difference between what you want ,what I want and Satans deception. Let your will be done .
Wow this channel has grown, I remember when you had 4k subs.

Hey, I want to thank you for making this video! I appreciate you directly taking your answers from God’s Word (it’s a reliable comfort) and helping us grow on our journey with the Lord. I hope God blesses you, even throughout the trials. He’s always there for us. 🙌🏼
