“Conflict in Relationships Is Unavoidable” • Jesus Offers Wisdom for Seeking Peace 

God is always listening. He walks with you, asking to carry your desperately heavy burden - it's the letting it go that is so SO hard. So odd that we would find our greatest anguish and pain so very difficult to relinquish to Jesus - I know it was a massive struggle for me. I had no idea how liberating forgiveness would feel, but it honestly is like a huge weight lifting from us. I didn't say it was easy and giving it to Jesus doesn't make what has been done to you 'ok' - it isn't - but the Lord will take care of that. Please let Him take care of you and heal your shattered heart 🙏🏼❤️

We are honored and humbled that you would trust us with this information. However, because we are an animation studio without a pastoral staff, we are not equipped to provide counsel to individuals. But we want you to know you are not alone. We receive many requests from those who are struggling to make sense of the world and God, and though we wish we could serve you in this way, it’s not something we have the resources or expertise to do well. We encourage you to reach out to the pastoral staff of your local church or talk to a licensed counselor, doctor, or trusted friend. We also encourage you to spend time in the book of Psalms. This beautiful book recounts the poetic prayers and laments of God’s people, and we find that it can provide comfort and guidance in many different circumstances. I'm praying for you today and if there's ever anything else we can pray for, feel free to share it with our prayer team directly at airtable.com/appsack7w8mJfJsKn/shrCF8j6509foubsH I hope you feel strengthened and encouraged today-God loves you so much.

Dear Sister - guess what? You shared your sadness on this platform - God heard you. "Be still and know that our Father in heaven is at work. God bless you!

I can only speak for myself. A great wrong was done to me by someone I love and trusted, and that wrong still continues. I feel anger, hurt, and abused. My Christian responce is very different to the one I would have two years ago. My aim has been to feel the pain and walk in righteousness as best I can ,that means not accepting the abusive behaviour, not seeking revenge, trusting in God that he is on this journey with and will provide for me all I need. He provided Christian counselling. He also allowed me to understand that my value is in him, so self care boundaries and looking to God to protect my mental health and show me the way forward is important. Over time in my heart I love the person who has been abusive. I now pray for deliverance for them as I now see them as bound by the chains of a demonic spirit. It has taken time but I can turn the other cheek because nothing they say or do can hurt me now. God has given me physical and spiritral distance. Counselling and pastoral care, prayer and the word have been an heavenly gift at a time of need. No child of God is inadequate when we trust him. We have trials and pain but In him we are blessed and a new creature. Please reach out for support .

I believe that when you find this video is the proof that God hear your cry and want to heal you, trust Him with all your heart

“I am sending you out like sheep among wolves. Therefore be as shrewd as snakes and as innocent as doves.

Yes, to love your enemies, sometimes just means not wishing them bad, it doesn’t has to be hugs and jumping of joy to see them :)

Agreed ❤

The trouble with what you say is that although it might be true in theory, it is not actually literally true. It is in fact possible to forgive, as Jesus told us to do. I know people who forgive truly and deeply without any evidence of divine grace at all. They are obeying Jesus without even believing in him.

Also remember that's cs lewis said 'if you have excuses you don't need forgiveness, true forgiveness comes when there is no excuses and you know EXACTLY what you did and did it on purpose.. . And are still forgiven... beautiful

@@Queezbo I believe that it is still God behind forgiveness, even though some might not acknowledge or be aware of it at all. It is known as God's common grace -as in Matthew 5:45 where it rains on the righteous and the unrighteous.

This is totally correct. That's why Peter begged: "Lord, give us more faith" immediately after Jesus encouraged them to forgive "up to 70 times".

You missed the point. Jesus is more than about pleasing. He’s about redemption. His redemption was enough for you, me, and all pharisees who believe in the good news. A redeemed person does not count the sins or transgressions of others. A redeemed person points the way to the redeemer.

@@dannyg5400He does indeed. But what if the wrong is rejection and mockery of the gospel? Then we do not back down on the gospel, or “please” them for sake of comfort.

@@stonwall9065We dust off our feet and not cast our pearls to swine.

Just don’t lose the word of God in idolatry. Make sure you’re doing everything through unfailing love and praying. Even if you’re in danger GIVE ALL YOUR ANXIETIES TO GOD. And God will give you authority over the snakes and scorpions in your garden. Always be slow to anger and when you do use anger practice self control and discipline. I hope this message affirms you with clairvoyant and a unyielding sense of purpose. The battle is not yours it’s the lord. Your neighbors are not your children they’re Gods. Not your justice it’s gods goodness. Your sword should be Gods wrath. Always pray your enemies have your strength courage discipline and mercy when dealing with Gods wrath.

telling the truth is an act of love. You make yourself lots of enemies by telling the truth, yes it really doesn't please them, yet you do it out of love for the truth, not out of upholding some social status

And I pray for His strength and grace upon you as you walk in obedience in Jesus ' name. Amen

Watch the bait of Satan by John bevere. It helped me overcome my hatred for my family & people that I will encounter in the future

I AGREE. THANK YOU FOR SHARING THIS

Amen 🙏

🙏🏻 “Work willingly at whatever you do, as though you were working for the Lord rather than for people.” ‭‭Colossians‬ ‭3‬:‭23‬ ‭NLT‬‬ When at work, work as though you were working for God. You will honour God, and He will honour you. Maybe not at this work, but one day He will honour you because you did what He told you to do so. God bless you! 🙏🏻

But Jesus didn't.

@@ryanthescary more the reason to follow/obey the teachings/way of Jesus.

It makes us say to ourselves: Man we really need to stop listening to how the world says to live and succeed, and we have to know how Jesus wants us to succeed.

@@bummmbleqvb4025 losing the world instead of trying to win the world is an unpopular virtue

we have, and thats the beauty of being a christian, aslong as u dont fall in despair we good

Amen

Why don't you go and apologize?

​@@fulconandroadcone9488I agree, apologizing and telling that girl the truth would be better. Sevenkings, try your best to make peace with her and leave the past behind the both of you.

God is good You are blessed for acknowledging your wrongs as some ppl don’t. Ask God for forgiveness and for guidance. Don’t be so hard on yourself for God has a time for everything. We can only learn and grow thank God your heart to turn to what is right for God is a righteous God ❤

That hurts, but follow the Lord's leading on how to make it right. And sitting being quiet to preserve yourself while feeling guilty ain't the road to start traveling down. And don't believe the lie it's too late and let it slide. Be quick to reconcile. God will be with you.

You stoned her?

I pray and prophesy into your life by the Spirit of God. God will help you and He will turn your life around into its best and greatest version, in Jesus name, amen

What helps me is sometimes saying to myself when I have a negative encounter; "we are called to love people, not like them!" It reminds me that, we can't like everyone's personalities/actions and vice versa, but I'd still help that person if they needed it and I'd still share the Gospel with them. It brings the focus back to whats important and helps me forgive and move on from the encounter

I'll recommended watching "the bait of Satan" by John bevere.

As we pray for him please ask God to see him through Gods lens’s and not our own. It’s a game changer for God is love. Thank you for praying for him it’s what we can do as Gods children Blessings ❤

God loves him… and hates his sin! God’s love can overcome even the most ingrained sinfulness! I pray that the presence of God in you will be STRONG in goodness, all power and might, in wisdom and generosity, in graciousness and kindness… that the work He began in you will continue so that the good work He ordained you to do will be done with joy!

It also might not be your responsibility to be a friend to this guy; maybe God will send someone else who can act as a mentor or brother figure and get him to re-think how he lives his life. Earnestly praying for his wellbeing is a very good example of loving him.

It might help to understand addiction. It usually results from trauma so something happened to him when he was a child and this is how he copes with the pain inside.

I’m so sorry you’re having to deal with this. His behaviour is disgusting and unacceptable and should not be tolerated in the workplace. We are commanded to forgive however the Bible does not tell us to continue in relationships with people who have damaged us or are still damaging us, family or not. In fact, the Scriptures are full of teachings instructing us to leave relationships with wicked or evil people, to be separate from them, to shun, outcast, and purge them from our midst. Praying the HR at your workplace deals with this situation and does it quickly.

Forgiveness is your inheritance You have sinned... sure But because of Christ you're blameless in God's sight

i have difficulty understanding why the tree of knowledge/good and evil was created. i have difficulty appreciating why a 'loving god' would put a thing such as that in the garden. why create temptation a thing that god would know would be the downfall of man upon creating it ...[?] trauma has devastated my life as has not having good examples [of how to live] shown to me. my life atm is heavy after a lifetime of trauma and hardship. i will persist in learning from gods word and will continue to take guidance from this and other channels but i wonder if i will ever be able to heal and wonder if i will ever feel at peace.

​@@kk-qy4sc So, I think the tree of knowledge of good and evil was not inherently bad on it's own. It is that man disobey that led to sin. Both the temptation and the sin of man is as a result of God's will. God want those that serve him not robot. But I think this "theology" is not what you need with the story you shared. I can't imagine what you're going through. I just want to say that you are heard. And God's hears you. He says that He will keep you in perfect peace if your mind is stay on Him (Ish 26:3). Keep trusting God as you said. I would also recommend that you take stock on the good things in your life. Write it down if possible. Appreciate God for that. Rejoice in it. See the "bad" from a good standpoint and things might change. Don't compare yourself with others but compare your today with yesterday. God bless you and give you guidance. A brother in Christ.

@@kk-qy4scwhy did God create the sun moon and stars? Why did He create plant and animals? Why did He create the heavens and the earth? God knows everything and when God does a thing, it is good. Not because God does good things only but because ‘Everything’ that God does, is good. You do not know things like God knows things. Why did i decide to reply you? Who am i? Where am i from? Where was i born? When was i born? You do not know. But God knows all that and more. So instead of trying to bring God down to your level of knowledge so that He can answer your questions. Submit and accept His Ways and His Words. See, recognise , know that you do not know everything and that God knows everything. And that God is good because God is God. But i can tell you that, when you submit to His Ways and His Words. He will send you His Spirit and by His Spirit, everything will make sense and you will see and understand why all things happen as they do. I hope that answers your question?

@@kk-qy4sc but i also hear your suffering and so I pray and prophesy into your life by the Spirit of God. God will help you and He will turn your life around into its best and greatest version, in Jesus name, amen

​@@David_Shittu to follow up to your thought. Is the thought that the tree was created isn't the point. To surcom to the fact that eve wanted to be equal to God or be God like. It's also about a lesson of having a free will.

I cringe

Happy early birthday! Thank you so much for sharing this with us! It's great to hear our resources are impacting you in such a meaningful way.

Happy birthday🥳🥳have a great year ahead! May GOD Almighty bless you

Happy birthday to you

Yay! Happy birthday love!! 💖

happy birthday, I know this is late but i just wanted to acknowledge your birthday.

Same here!

Yes!! I’m so proud of you for realizing your worth does not come from your earthly father- and I know that Your Father in Heaven is beaming with pride as well. Our Lord loves you so much, and He is the one that gives you worth and value and purpose, as well as *so* much more. It is a very very good thing to remember that looking to the things of this world for your confidence and self-esteem will always end in corruption and failure and disappointment. But if you continue look to God, as you have already *been* doing, He will always be beside you, helping and supporting you even through times of hurt. God bless you!!

Thankyou for this. Beautifully said.

Always consequences, even for doing good!

@onthewayover we're all evil and deserved to be punished, but the good news is that God has given us an opportunity through the teachings of Jesus to turn from our evil ways and follow what Jesus commanded his followers to do to be good.

Unfortunately, there are those who do not rethink those actions and see them as opening to inflict more pain.

Not always true.

@@finkejdf101But then again they could be dealing with things that they hide in the dark, No one does bad things for no reason, even if they don't know what that reason is.

We don't have to forget

If we ask God to help us be like Him..Micah 7:19... Its possible, but may take time

It's impossible for us to forget especially when something is really hurtful situations instead we choose to forgive of what we cannot forget, do not let the past take over you or overpower you. Have grace into yourself and dont let the past overpower

Forgiving can only be done by forgetting the offence. God had literally stated that when we ask for forgiveness and he gives it to us, he also forgets the very thing that we did. God has chosen to let go of every bad decision you have made the second you begged him to forgive you. Therefore when he also states “you must forgive others as I have forgiven you” we need to forget what may have happened or otherwise we aren’t actually forgiving that person, just choosing to be nice to them is different. Not forgetting what they’ve done actually keeps you and that other person disabled and unable to move forward in any improvement- When they either ask you to forgive them or you choose to forgive them first whoever forgives can now officially move forward with no knowledge of the past. You need to trust in them as an entirely new human being who can now actually change their ways and do better- you need to put that trust in their hands every time so that they can feel the permission to now be better- But also not because they deserve it but because God expects you to. 🙏❤️ I love you all very much, and I mean this wholeheartedly.

This reminds me of when Joseph wept so loudly when seeing his brothers in the flesh. The story of Joseph is so powerful about the struggle of overcoming trauma and how much forgiveness costs. I found the book Total Forgiveness by RT Kendall so helpful with this, it goes through the story of Joseph and links to other people's stories in the modern day. God bless you in your ongoing journey.

Keep your sanity in any situation. Mental health is not cheap.

Having distance from those who have hurt you is a very good thing, and I commend you for being strong enough to do so! What may be difficult in this situation is if you have isolated yourself *to the point of isolation*. Being alone is not what God wants- it is the first thing that He says is Not Good in the Garden of Eden, and why He made Eve as a companion for Adam. “It is not good for the man to be alone.” Personally, I have had trials in my past where I was surrounded by the wrong types of people and ended up being…just unconnected from relationship. I felt that I had no close friends and was doing something wrong and needed to try harder to get people to like me. I had also been in some very possessive friendships in the past, and it skewed how I viewed the entire concept of “having friends.” But really, you *have* to just keep searching for the right people. They are out there. Pray that you meet them. Over the past year, I have seen my isolationism become lesser and lesser, and I am now to the point where I am surrounded by friends who I know are good people. Seek out Christian community, and if you are in the right spot, you will be greeted by open arms! God designed humans as social creatures; don’t attempt to go against His design. It will only lead to your heartache.

It’s an advantage in the spirit all the time. Always see stuff as spiritual warfare. And that’s what you use your love and prayers for.

Wooooaaaahhhh. I'm putting this in my notes!

I feel ya on that one!

Read your bible then.

Pray brother/sister 😁

God’s word is powerful the Bible project dudes would want you to read the scriptures and pray to be free from our propensity to react to people from the sinful nature. 😊 and we can have that freedom right now. Ask Holy Spirit to fill you with his love and truth from the Bible. He is always present with us! He wants to guide you through all your emotions and circumstances 🙏🤗

Definitely go back and watch episode 4 again that will help forsure

I am going through my own stuff as well, I WILL think on you too in my prayers tonight, and those on the brink that need OUR Sheppard to guide us :). May the Lord bless you and family, and that blessings and miracles ARE on the way.

Amen!!! So much power to that scene!

If your roommate is abusive it is important to note that the Bible does not tell us to continue in relationships with people who have damaged us and are not repentant or are still damaging us, family or not. In fact, the Scriptures are full of teachings instructing us to leave relationships with wicked or evil people, to be separate from them, to shun, outcast, and purge them from our midst.

Can you give sample bible verses regarding this matter?

the use of the red line, and the fact that healing requires you to cross the line is so beautiful- wow I like that take

It's great to hear you are enjoying the Sermon on the Mount series! Thank you for your encouragement and for following along!

@@ChristianJune32002 indeed it is, why do you ask?

@@ryancadek Because I want people to believe in the biblical God. What is the Trinity?

@@ChristianJune32002 that God is 1, however there are 3 persons in that Godhead. Each has a different role that they play and all 3 are unique persons, however they are all one God. In both the New and Old testement we are told of how God is mutiple persons. In Genesis 1:26 we find God using describing words like "us" and "our" to describe God. The New Testement tells us that Jesus is God, including verses in which Jesus himself makes claims of being God, as well as verses that tell us that there is one God indicating that even at the time of the New Testement, the trinity was an idea acknowleged by the early Christians like St. Paul. The Holy Spirit is called the Spirit of God within the bible and yet also is identified as more than just a thing, but a person that is seperate from the Father or the Son; He is identified as a Helper by Jesus, as one that can be Grieved in Ephesians. The bible does teach of a trinitarian God.

how do we do it properly though.

@@Mia15239 Gently. When we know something they aren't aware of, we ask, "perhaps..." rather than "this is fact." When someone has wronged us, we are to gently make them aware if that's what they meant to do and how it effected you. Typically people aren't aware of how they impact others.

Anyone who causes us pain , has to do with them and not us. So yes Pray for unhealed people as they damage themselves more and create more suffering in their lives.

i'll take that action: i bet you have to destroy your enemies at all costs and consume them to absorb their power.

Definitely pray that God will help you to forgive truly in your heart and keep forgiving and praying until you truly mean what you say

They did in the podacsst

HAVE A NICE DAY !

What really helps me is that I ask God to take my vengeance. I literally pry that God will not let that person continue in their destructive behaviour. Honestly it really works. He should avoid her at all costs also doesn’t need to speak to her. Jesus didn’t answer all the questions thrown at him. Wisdom is key

True …and, with the presence of the Holy Spirit empowering you, you can take up your own identity again as a child of God even after someone has broken you down to subhuman. You can walk in joy, peace and love. You can be empowered to command respect without manipulating other people... because you are secure in your identity as a son/daughter of the Living God!
