Ive watched a lot of Christian dating videos and this is the one that I feel a lot of people need. God actually led me to read the passage you referenced in Judges (may have been mentioned in a podcast). When I first started going to church I knew I needed to get connected and that led to me joining a small group. Of course the leader just had to be my physical type. So within five minutes of meeting him I was already praying about him that I will not be drawn to him but focused on what God has for me to hear. I prayed this a few times because I knew I wanted to be with someone who shared the faith but I had never actually been around a guy who openly loved the Lord and was in my age group. Anyways months go by, about eight and there is a youth conference that we both end up serving at. I stuck around just to talk to him because I had never really talked to him about anything outside of Bible study. At this time I knew I was crushing hard. So I was praying a lot about it to help me not be so boy crazy over him or whatever. The conference overall was so good for me and seeing hundreds of students worshipping just felt amazing. I got asked to join on a youth nights team, not knowing he would be there too although I did hope. Anyways the second week i served at youth night during worship I could not focus I kept wondering where he was. So I’ sat down and started praying. I deliberately prayed for God to take these feelings away because I wanted to focus on God and praise him. That didn’t work so about an hour later I was thinking to myself I’ve been praying these feelings away since I met this guy. So then I sat down again and I said God if you don’t want me to pray this away I need a sign like a clear sign because I’m stubborn and I will just overthink it. Five minutes later my phone went off and it was a text for him to come check out silent disco. So I went over to check it out and he was in the dj booth so I sat with him and it was just a fun time. When everything was over he walked me to my car and then asked me out on a date. And there has been other signs too because I have doubted myself and going through spiritual warfare in the form of dreams and depression. But I know God put us together and if we keep him first everything will work out for good. ❤
She's not preaching over men behind a pulpit, she is teaching others about the word of God. There's nothing wrong with a woman sharing the gospel, it's wrong for a woman to preach behind a pulpit with men in the room.
The wasn’t the Holy Spirit manifesting in that building. It was the spirit of the devil in there. You was in a building with a pastor that was doing witchcraft.
What if I don't want a relationship? I've been praying to God to remove every reason for me to want to be in a relationship. I don't know, it's just that I see kdramas or something where the love is beautiful, but somehow, I don't want that, and I don't want to wait for someone. I don't want anyone. And I don't think someone is going to lose for not being with me.
Most of “Christianity” is a Cult. Truth is Not Popular! “Enter ye in at the strait gate: for wide is the gate, and broad is the way, that leadeth to destruction, and many there be which go in thereat: because strait is the gate, and narrow is the way, which leadeth unto life, and few there be that find it. Beware of false prophets, which come to you in sheep's clothing, but inwardly they are ravening wolves. Not every one that saith unto me, Lord, Lord, shall enter into the kingdom of heaven; but he that doeth the will of my Father which is in heaven.” Matthew 7:13-15, 21
My cult experience the 10 Things I went through. 1. Said I wasn't a Christian until I got baptized. 2. Had no volunteering or events going on just church service. 3. People were overly nice. 4. Overly nosy but it's not to really to get to know you but rather with ulterior motives. 5. Would put a lot of pressure on you with a nice tone. 6. When I told them that I was unemployed they kept asking every week if I got a job yet and when I finally told them to stop talking about it they got a bit offensive. 7. Told me that I only need to go to their church only and to leave the other Zoom churches behind. 8. Had a Bible verse about tithing. 9. Made me think I was in the wrong when my concerns were very valid. The Deacon suddenly snapped at me and told me to stop treating their Church like a dating pool. I didn't listen to my dad when he said he didn't like that deacon! 10. When I was originally going to take a break from their Church they basically shunned me by saying we pray for your salvation (all because I stopped going to their Church!) A church does not define your salvation only God does! If you believe then you are still a Christian. I had to sense block every one of those people's numbers because I no longer wanted to be associated with that church. I was afraid to tell them that I was going to a new church so I kept it a secret. I lost my faith with that church but not with God. When I went to this church I realize how much of a cult my other church was. They asked questions but they weren't overly nosy and they had more volunteering events and people my age. Even though I was only there for 2 months I am still struggling with church hurt and me being shocked and that I didn't leave sooner. But I know that God is with me always and I pray for me to forgive them but I see I'm starting to make progress.

Ohhh I wish I knew you weren't married yet!!!!! I thought you were married listening to your stories while back. I loved your testimony. Wish we could've designed your dress!!! We make custom gowns for believing brides to match their budget and regular pricing for secular brides. The Lord invested and sent me to study in New York and London and worked at Oscar De La Renta bridal, and other fashion brand houses. Launched the biz with our first bride in Jerusalem last year and making gowns for lovely faithful remnants. LOVE your voice and zeal for His kingdom. <3 Big congratulations!!!
I just watched her video where she advised us the singles on how to thrive in singleness and she spoke about patience, she was patient enough till God sent her man to her. Congratulations dearie, you deserve this and more 🎉
