Well he doesn't "make us" do anything as Ashley had stated in her video that he doesn't force himself upon you but rather maybe say like he put the desire on your heart and kind of nudged you a little bit to watch this would probably be a better terms of word. I'm not a grammar Nazi or trying to correct you but God does not force us to do anything. So when we say that God made us do this or do that it makes him sound like we're an obligation to do something like we don't have free will or free choice because we do have free will. So I guess what I'm trying to say is when we say the things and say that God makes us do this or that it just sounds controlling and God is not controlling like that. He tells us the truth in his word in love and treats us with kindness and etc so that's who he is He's not a controlling forceful person. Again, don't take offense to this I'm not trying to be a grammar nazi or correct or anything like that but We have to watch how we word things too because God is not a control freak.
❤🔥I'm a 58yr old woman, and learn and grow so much from your videos! Keep up the good work Ashley! You are impacting women of all ages for God's kingdom!
Back in 2017, i listened to music of jesus on the ✝️ and when I watched the bible TV series that changed me in my heart. idk how to explain this, but I felt his presence in my life, and he had his hand touched my heart. My heart grew stronger than I had ever felt before. Then he said I forgive you, and I will always be with you. I remembered I couldn't stop crying at all like 7 days. I realized this was jesus' holy presence showing me to remember forever. I pray for everyone that can find in their hearts to learn and to see the lord presence with a heart touch to be forgiven. Jesus will always be with us forever ♥️ ✝️ 🙏
This summer I will prioritize THE LORD. AMEN ❤ LORD HELP ME AND GUIDE ME REMOVE ALL BURDENS I AM TRYING TO CARRY AND HELP ME ONLY CARRY YOUR BURDEN FOR YOURS IS LIGHT ❤❤❤
I have been feeling so distant from God and it has been hard to read my Bible or devotional everyday recently, your videos give me motivation to do it and really help me in my faith. Thanks so much Ashley I love your videos! ❤️❤️❤️🔥
❤️🔥hey so i am 12 and i wa t to become closer to the lord and getting the right mindset so i bet u r thinking people that watch ur video older but u really do help me find what to do
Starting when you're young is beautiful! 1 Timothy 4:12 says, "Don’t let anyone look down on you because you are young, but set an example for the believers in speech, in conduct, in love, in faith and in purity." This video is so helpful for knowing how to become closer with the Lord. The only advice I can really give you is to rely on the Lord for all things, realizing that you need Him in every moment, and the things in this video will become easy and not like a chore, like sometimes we make it to be.
she has told me what to do to grow my relationship with god and what she does and says and what she does makes me want to do this things. Anther thing that is good is that when people like yall comment on my comments i feel this goodness bc i am not only on this walk with god also ashley making videos about how to become the best version of ur self with the lord
Hi guys I’m ten years old and I’m really struggling to obey God instead of what my flesh says so pls pray for me and God bless y’all also pls pray for me and my family to grow closer to God but anyways byee guys God bless you all!😄❤️🔥
Ashley. When I tell you the TIMING of this video! I was just a little bit ago having a conversation with my sister. She has been worried about me lately with my music choices. Tbh I have been lukewarm! This past year has been insane and would be very long for me to type out the whole story, but it resulted in me losing some of my faith along the way. I know God is real and that he loves me, I just need to believe it again. I really needed this video to put my heart back into perspective. Thank you so much for being so bold with your faith. It is truly inspiring. I go to a University where it can be hard to share my faith and so I have mad respect for people like you. Thank you for all you do to help us. God Bless 💛
God bless you for this amazing message. Even as I was watching this video, I pulled out my Bible and going to be reading scripture again all over so that I can be nourished by the Word of God🙏🏾🙌🏾❤️
So so true about the relationship with God. Couldn't be any more true. Distance was between God and I and I didn't feel him as much but when I'm on it and praying to him and talk to him at all times I feel he is within me it's so cool and strange and crazy but such a simple concept!
Jesus always loves you a lot! Praise the Lord! Loved the Lord our God with all your heart, soul, mind, and strength! HAVE FAITH! REPENT! TRUST IN GOD! ✝️💓🐑🙏🏻
Literally seeing this video I almost didn't click it and watch a different video but i literally just felt like I needed to. It's Sunday and I slept through going to church I felt bad and said "I'll like listen to a christian podcast, read my bible and journal" but I haven't yet. Until i watched this video and am not reminded to take my time with the lord. Also thank you for the helpful websites and book recommendations I will be looking at those.❤🔥❤🔥❤🔥
Thank you for your videos! I’m slowly introducing God back into my life after a decade of turning away from him and these are so inspirational to me :) ❤
❤️🔥have been making it apart of my daily morning routine to read the bible and a devotional to strengthen my relationship with Him. looking forward to reading your devotional, have been struggling in a waiting season and really think it will help me draw closer to and have more trust in the Lords timing!
Thanks for the powerful spiritual awakening of always to make God our first priority!! Worshipping him is my favorite it’s very important that we draw close to God everyday 🙌🙇🏻♀️📖
HIIIII thank you soooooo much!!!! I have actually been praying for a way to be on Fire for Him!!!!!! This video was an answered prayer for me😁❤️🔥I watched the whole video❤️🔥
Thank you so much for posting this today! Moments before I got the notification, I was thinking about how I didn’t feel close to God and that I didn’t know how to get back to Him. And OFC, because His timing is perfect, this video came. Thank you, Ashley ❤️🔥
You’re such a beautiful soul 💕 God bless you Ashley! May the Lord continue to bless you and fill your cup till it overflows for this new week. ❤️🔥❤️🔥❤️🔥❤️🔥
Amen, sis ❤ Thank you for speaking so directly about why and how we need to be spending time with God. That He needs to be our priority, our one and only, our everything. May we all grow closer to and desire Him more and more...
❤🔥I just finished your devotional last week, and this video were right on time cause I've been trying to get back on fire with my relationship with God. Thank you so much for this video❤
❤️🔥I honestly feel like when I think of spending time with God I feel like it’s a huge hard task. I know the enemy is up to this but I feel burnt out in a way.
I’m so grateful, God is working through your life & mine with the wonderful things He is doing with you. May God bless you in everything Ashley - your work in God is so meaningful and powerful.
Ashley I saw you on the Bible app the other day and I was happy/proud. Girl you are showing people how to improve their journey with the lord. You’re the one who helped me discover Ally and other Christian influencers that are a really big help to my Christian journey. keep doing what you are doing and I pray God will continue to bless you as you are in California. Thank you. ❤❤❤
Beautiful video. About a year and a half ago, I truly started to take my walk seriously, and ever since, your videos have helped loads! I can't wait to look into the fasting guide cause that is something I struggle with. Also, I love the part about Solitude! Truly is so important. ❤️🔥😁
❤️🔥 my daughter found your page during a 3 week media fast our church was doing and I’m so blessed she found you. Your content is relatable and helpful for not only her but for myself
❤️🔥 I choose 1:00 to spend time with the Lord and I do it daily and we’ll just talk about life, blessings, trials/hardships. I know how to apply these to my life 😊
❤️🔥I want to be on fire for Jesus and I am so excited to put these things into practice!! I’m going to wake up early tomorrow to have some quiet alone time with Him.
Everything in this video is such good TRUTHFUL advice! I just finished day 100 of "The Joy of the in-between" yesterday!🎉🎀🤍 well done Ash! You did such a good job!🥲👏🏻🤍🏆
❤️🔥❤️🔥❤️🔥 This helped me so much! There were certain moments in the video where you were saying the exact thing I was dealing with. The Holy Spirit is so powerful, and I can tell I'm different when I spend time with God vs. when I don't spend time with God. Jesus really is living water, and God quenches my soul.
❤️🔥 I will be on fire one day and look up and be dry bones. I hate that. I know He never leaves me. I hate when I pull away. Thanks for helping remind me it’s in my hands to come back to Him
I am in the middle of my Daniel fast and at the same time have so much to do with my study and home/ church commitments, that I was concerned that I don't spend enough time with God.. I became more and more anxious about everything and have had a breakdown today.. and after watching your video I realised what was wrong. I need to prioritise my time with Jesus before everything else, to become that peace and power over anxiety and fear. Thank you for reminding me❤🔥
I'm really trying to get closer to God now, but this time I will be gentle with myself and understand that this is a process and I'm learning. Baby steps are still steps ❤️🔥❤️🔥
❤️🔥 Thank you so much for the encouragement and tips! I’ve been very strongly desiring to get closer to the Lord and this video was very helpful to me.
🔥❤ thank you so much Ashley for making this video and sharing the love of Jesus Christ!!! You have no idea how much this has helped and encouraged me in my walk and relationship with Jesus❤!!! I am so blessed to have found your channel! JESUS LOVES YOU!!!❤❤❤
i love your videos so much, i really felt convicted when you were talking about scrolling on social media especially in the morning and night which i have been doing lately. i’m going to stop starting today and read my Bible every morning and night before anything else ❤️🔥
Love you Ashley! Edit: Wow! Just after your second camera cut & before your outro, I rummaged in this little bin of stickers I have at my desk and i pulled out a few random ones. I put two of them down and as I read the third, you were talking about seeing who was "still here" and the sticker in my hand literally reads "Still here, still strong"
this is so weird! basically i just finished watching your “how to become a christian” video which was so so helpful and i clicked on your channel and this video came up and i feel like this is what i needed!
I just purchased your book! Thank you for sharing your experience with our God Almighty. Thank you for sharing your ways on how to get closer to our Savior Jesus Christ. I shared this video on my family chat ❤
❤️🔥 This was a great video! Thank you for sharing really practical ways for us to grow closer to God and grow our faith, too! ❤ I need to implement more of this with my kids too.
I love your advise and I wanna give you all some advise about prayer talk when I did this first time in my life I was trying to talking to God in my mind but I feel like I realy talk to him out loud and I am putting my phone on my ear and I am talking God and when people see me they are thinking I am talking with my friend on my phone ;) if your like my shy person definitely you should have to try ❤️🔥☺️🙏🏻
❤️🔥 Ty for this message ash😘 also I am on day 22 of reading your book. It has tremendously spoken to me already and I’m already looking forward to reading it again ❤️🔥
When you visualize something, it creates new neuropathways in your brain. Once a pathway is made, it is a bridge to change. Imagine a future situation and visualize yourself acting out the action that you'd like to act out when faced with that particular situation. Don't just visualize the action however but attempt to imagine how the ideal person of yourself would feel in that situation.
Thank you Ashley for your video, i really needed this because for a few months i've been far away from God but yesterday i promised myself and God that i will win, that i'm going to come back to him . Because i miss him and i need him in my life! With your video i know how to come back to God and not leave again , so thank you very much ❤🔥
This video opened my eyes seriously I’m so thankful that there are creators like you out there and this made me just crave reading the Bible and praying thank you truly. ❤
All of this is so on point! My morning time with God is the best part of my day and I love the idea of doing prayer walks. I will have to try it out! ❤🔥
Yes! God is so good for showing this video to me. I’ve been in hard place withGod for a long time now and this video. Is truly just so amazing! ❤️🔥❤️🔥
Thank you for this! I was drifting, but as soon as I watched this, I decided to get back in the habit of journaling and reading my bible again! ❤️🔥❤️🔥❤️🔥
