So, you’re tired of God? Sounds like you are playing games because you are not a Godly man, or haven’t invited God into your life fully yet. Do this first. Find God. Make him #1 in your life. Then, God will lead. Mind you, this is coming from a 36 year old male, not married, no kids, and couldn’t be happier putting GOD first. #SoldierOfGod
1. Your reputation can make a man pursue you (Ruth 3:6, 11) 2. Your presence can make a man pursue you (Ruth 2:3) 3. Your absence can make a man pursue you (Ruth 2:23) 4. Your intentions can make a man pursue you (Proverbs 31:11) 5. Your lack of attention on other men can make a man pursue you (Ruth 3:10) 6. Your friends can make a man pursue you (Ruth 1:14) 7. Your devotion to Christ can make a godly man pursue you (1 Peter 3:1-4)
I find I’m doing all of these key points except probably not allowing myself to be seen as much as I should because I stay off social media and I don’t do dating Apps. I’m working on myself while I wait on the Lord. Praying His plan will bring the right person into my life. When I’ve acted on my own, of course it never worked out thankfully! God knows my heart and His plan is the best. He will fulfill all His promises to me.
As a Godly man, let me give you my thoughts. These scriptures couldn’t be more True. Ladies, look; you need to implement every single one of these listed. If you are seeking a Godly man, trust me, you are not going to outsmart him. He is going to outsmart you. And guess, what? That’s ok. That’s how it should be. What do I mean by that? We are consistently downloading information around us. That’s all we do. We will know before you do if we are interested. It’s just how God made it be. Example: As a man, if we see a woman we find physically attractive (and yes, it starts here for men; I didn’t make the rules) talking to ANY OTHER MAN wherever you are, we are 99% of the time going to be completely off the radar for you. It’s that simple. A Godly man will put no stock in a future wife that he sees mingling with any other man. It’s just the way it is. Your steadfast presence around other men (especially if you are attractive) and your avoidance of them is what a Godly man is seeking. YOUR LACK OF ATTENTION TO OTHER MEN CAN MAKE A MAN PURSUE YOU (RUTH 3::10). You need to almost be like a Godly man (I say this very carefully), since you are from the rib of a man at the end of the day. Do not waiver around other men if you are seeking a Godly man. You will not find anything. We see this before you do. It’s not innocent. We see this as a future headache immediately. Good Luck and God Bless.
I am grateful for your content! I'm currently reading your book "Christ centered dating" and it appears to be valuable and helpful resource for me so far! May God bless you and Mirta, my friend and sister in Christ, for gifting me your book!
I’ve had the book for a while now Mark and it’s in my stack of books I’m currently reading! I’m a bit of a book 📚 girl 😂 I need to move yours up in the stack! 😊
@Jessicavance6391 i believe the story of how God showed caring and conceen for Hagar illustrates his compassion and understanding, as well as how Jesus treated woman at well/adulterous woman, as well as mary magdalene. There are historically many women who found good Christian love and God's favor as Christians after having been widowed, divorced or as single mothers.
I think he knows at this point I want his pursuit I just be waiting on Gods timing 🤣 hoping that a decent friendship will blossom soon though. I’ve yet to had opportunity to hang with him outside of church activities but I did invite him! He was open to it, ended up being busy but I think he got the hint :) These videos have been really helpful in my walk with God. I’m used to being top dog and always taking the lead cause that’s my natural inclination but I really want to be lead by a godly man, the godly man He has in store for me. I bought the audiobook version of your latest book! Love love loved it. Definitely gonna recommend it to my girl friends :) God bless you all I hope you have a wonderful Easter weekend 🩷 HE IS RISEN!!
Is there any hope for single moms….I have 1 toddler and never been married. I’m just feeling down. God knows I desire to be married. I could use some encouragement if anyone has a good scripture to share ❤.
Mark I want to know why some married men don't wear wedding rings? Makes it harder to "invite" a man to pursue me, when I find out a man I am interested in who doesn't wear a wedding ring, is actually married and has kids.
Neither of my parents wore wedding rings. My dad doesn't wear any jewelry to this day and my mom got out of the habit because there were always little people (us and cousins) running around the house. They were both quick to shoot down any random interest. Personally, I wouldn't approach a guy just because I don't notice a ring. I would take some time to learn more about him and possibly get confirmations from people in my circle who know him better
Or if you find a guy like me even with his college rings don’t like wearing rings because they either have gotten stuck before or just too tight because of always using their hands with the joint swelling making it difficult.
I have never worn a wedding ring it hurts my finger I worked as a joiner finger rings can be a healthy and safety it can catch on things and remove the skin from your finger
I know many married Christian couples who are constantly fighting each other. They are utterly miserable. I also know many single Christians who are happy and serve God in so many more ways than married Christians. 😮
Your lack of attention on other men can make a man pursue you 3:10.. sometimes i am just friendly with everyone, a lot of men i have no interest in at my church, so working on not giving attention to them and only to a guy im interested in (when he comes back to church or shows up) if he does! A guy was there a couple weeks ago i was interested in and could have implemented this!
I have been divorced from a 30 year marriage with a man who was repeatedly unfaithful to me. How long should a Christian woman wait to begin dating again?
Oh wow, Mines been only ten years, he is claiming now, he just got Jesus and he will quit. 😢I pray this is true, but my spirit feels it's a lose. I want to have faith in him, we have been best friends for 30 years Sad. Because I know I need to cut the cord, it's so hard. Please how did you do it? How do I walk away
Stephanie, I was not the one that did it… My ex walked out on me and never looked back. I had a really hard time with it at first, because I was very worried about being accountable to God for my marriage falling apart… but I know now that it was God who was rescuing me from a life that was actually placing me in danger. God is good like that! We don’t always see, or understand, why certain things happen to us. But we do need to trust that God‘s way for us is best… because it is!
Male here Recently divorced Never wanted this divorce I think You have to go at Your own pace Have heard that it should be six months to a year I remember in my past I was alone and Lonely The dull ache of companionship and intimate Not feeling that way now Got burned unfairly ... So very gun shy Gonna take care of me The way I have been living for the last 15 years including this past relationship I am just going to keep moving forward in my Godly Daily Life If someone shows up, I will filter them very very thoroughly If no one shows up ... Oh Well Blessings to You on Your Journey ✡️ 🙏 ✨️ 😊
@BHALAful most respectfully, Mahlon was ruth's previous husband,& Obed was her son with Boaz. Moab was where Ruth originated. Ruth was not a Christian because Jesus had not been born yet, but I think I understand what you mean that special guidance from God was definitely there-- she was influenced by Naomi and her sons/family most likely.
These comments are absurd. If you’re a man, put GOD first. If you are having thoughts such as “oh woe is me” “girls play games” blah blah blah. Really? You’re not being Godly. #SoldierOfGod
I think # 7 should be # 1 ... Just my opinion based on experience If I ever have someone show up again That will be my very strong filter If You claim to be a born again Godly Christian Man or Woman And there is no regular church attendance and fruit in Your life I will be very doubtful of You Regular Fellowship IS NOT church attendance four to six times a year ( maybe ) Blessings to You on Your Journey ✡️ 🙏 ✨️ 😊
But gotta be realistic. Some have reputations for being a *** but disguise and manipulate ppl too well. Ppl see what they want to believe. Or what the manipulator shows to others. They don't want to believe she has bad intentions.
Gentle and quiet spirit? Does that mean Christian girls are better of as graceful? I'm girly but I'm cheerful and energetic. What if the girl is somehow a tomboy it's okay right? Sometimes I get a little insecure because a lot of guys like the damsel in distress delicate soft spoken girls. To be fair a lot of girls like macho men, girls like bad boys because of their masculinity and confidence.
Tomboy is fine for tomboy activities. If on a date it's nice to be a bit more subtle and get in a gentler mode. I'm incredibly outgoing and energetic. A bit of a blabbermouth but on dates..I'm very feminine & graceful. Classy but still me.
My boyfriend was very intentional, consistent and clear to pursue. We fell in love and he said the Lord brought us together. I was certain he'd propose but fear overtook him & he got cold feet! Yikes! Anyway, Mark I can't pressure him. I'm pulling back so he can pray on it & make a decision to marry or not. Any thoughts?
Mark what about having a crush on a man in church who you haven't oficially talked to, how to get him to talk to you or how do you talk to him without being weird to do so.

@@itsmarieg5816 Break free from the attitude of ‘I need to make my presence known in this place to all these Men around me.’ No. No. No. This is the last thing you should do. This is difficult for women today because of how far gone society has become. Women, you are NOT the prize. You aren’t. The man is. You are a WO-MAN; Woe-man. Again, we didn’t create these rules, God did. Since the MAN is the prize, trust me, we know what we want… and if we see you mingling around other men, ‘making your presence known 🤮’ you are OUT. Immediately out. Don’t do this. Be reserved. Show that you don’t care about the other men around you. Don’t be talking about whatever bullshit you think you need to be talking about around other men. It’s disgusting. We don’t want this. At all. Show your purity as a Godly woman. And I will say it again, ladies; you ain’t fooling us. You are not. You may be fooling a non-Godly man, but you are NOT going to fool a Godly one. Good Luck.
@@monk4ever does that include having no male friendships? What about if a woman is volunteering at church and there are other men volunteers... is she not to talk to those men? How do men and women begin a friendship then?
