You know someone has left a powerful legacy when years after they are gone generations coming after are still feeding on your knowledge and wisdom. RIP man of God thank you for all these lessons.
I don't agree with this...Prayer is talking to God..God will let the Holy Spirit and his word help us get information..God will help us to control ignorance.
And how are you to have sex with that person? It really makes sense if one could marry and not have sex. What does the Bible mean when it says a man must love his wife?
I got married for the reasons you said- dumbest idea ever. We were great on paper but I didn’t love him I even told him so. I said love will come because we have everything else. I thought I was so smart. Now we’re divorced and now I know on no other foundation can anything be built - Only love remains. (True love not the Hollywood portrayal of it 😂) we apologized to each other for perverting our friendship using each other only to create some kind of idealized life. Fortunately we’re still good friends today
@@LukeRev480 You should get married because of LOVE but not the only reasons. Remember you can love anyone but your purpose can’t be fulfilled with anyone. You want to know that your intentions of getting married is firm because you can also get sex from anyone.
@@pageandink Amen! I'm glad you were matured enough to apologize to each other. Taking that advise! Society does n't want us to think about what happens when "love does n't come". I always say, I know exactly what will happen; I would n't want him anywhere near me (And would make sure he understands that clearly),I don't care how handsome or rich or close to Jesus he is. Now, would it not be selfish to commit someone to a sexless marriage? Afterall, sex ( not the only reason) is part of marriage, and it should n't feel like a job.
Dr. Munroe completed his assignment...and then like the wind, gone! Thank you Dr. Munroe for leaving us with such powerful lessons that will live on!! This is legacy!!
Yes, ask God for discernment, by praying, and fasting before you move forward with anyone. If God is quiet, don't you dare do anything without his approval. God said, seek his kingdom first, and the rest will follow.
You need Jesus so much...read a bible..and if you understand what love really means then you understand i need to love my husband.. Love gives Love cares Love find the other more important Love is not yalous Etc. Love is laying down ypur opinions Etc Pray to Jesus and read a bible
When I got married, i was the only one that never married for love amongst my cliques. Though i was super scared if my pathway will lead me to regrettable experiences in marriage... But then hearing this message and crosschecking my marriage now. I can boldly say take time to learn yourself first by allowing others to evaluate and judge you, have friends of opposite sex but don't date them. Use your friendship to ask them critical questions, then that one that you are looking for will emerge successfully.
People are always afraid of being in the friend zone. Most couples out there like their friends better than their spouses. They try to get along with their friends; not so with their spouses.
Rest on Dr Myles. My spirit is directing me to your teaching about marriage & relationships because I’m in that season of wondering why I’m still single & before listening to this teaching I thought something was wrong with me. But now I now better after listening to this teaching: Knowledge of self has grown - I most definitely can’t settle for something a little as love : I have to be with someone that grows , supports & inspires my dream. Someone that fits into where I am going 💕
This is profound and very much necessary for all of us who are married, and those who are still on their way to marriage. However, Dr Myles puts it so clear that it is beyond married couples only, it needs to be applied in all relationships including self love, intra personal relationship... Knowledge, Understanding and Wisdom will surely help us greatly when applied in our everyday relationships. May his precious soul continue to rest in eternal peace🕊️🕊️ What a Mighty God we serve indeed!!! We thank God for Dr Myles and his great and powerful teachings👏👏👏 I am truly blessed to have this wonderful message. Shalom🙏🙏🙏
i am glad of one of his latest interviews before his departure, He said on one of a Kenyan television that HE IS PROUD AND HAPPY OF DIEING EMPTY. He has done it,gave it,all teachings... Blessed be her Mother,his family, his country...
Get married because of the love for God which makes you change your ways as it relates to forgiveness, sharing, understanding, submission, and the right use of wisdom.
How did i miss out to know about this before i walked out into a toxic relationship for 6yrs and all i left with was my two sons...broken heart...broken spirit... scattered life with my dreams shuttered...But God of the second chance thank you that i landed on this...Now i can start afresh... Atleast now i have experience...i have got knowledge and the truth..
Always take responsibility for everything that happens in yourlife the good and the bad. 'Self serving bias' hinders true self reflection hence impedes growth.
Am happy I am listening to this while single and I agree, all my past relationships were based on me doing the loving and the hurt was too severe. I am wiser now.
When eros (sexual love) fails, it is agape (godly and unconditional) love that will keep a marriage, or (generally) any relationship. I learned this recently, and I am thankful I did, regardless of presently being single.
Dancing with angels knowing his work was done. Had the priviledge of listening to him in person, 2 weeks before he went to be with the Lord. May his wisdom live on.
@@faithkamau9805 That's where I saw him too! JCC Parklands with Bishop and Pastor Kiuna. Pastor Kathy said she felt it was the handing over of the mantle 🙏
The problem is not love, but the kind of love people have. Most people love for the wrong reasons. The kind of love required for marriage is loving the person for who they are and not what they have or what they do. Most people enter relationships without loving the people for who they are. Knowledge and understanding are vital key's, but without genuine love there will no door to use these keys to open. I believe that before you marry someone, love them for who they are. If you love for any other reason, that love will fail. This is the reason why some people think that love is not required for marriage. True love never fails. If love fails and divorce occurs, the love is not true
If God is love then people cannot love without God in them who is love. The Bible sayz love puts others first and seek no rewards for itself because it is content without repayment. But humans do all things for personal profit thus they cannot love. And so no matter how strong someone's feelings are for another person they always run weak and die because humans live by rewards n benefits. Thus love cannot keep marriage but knowledge can inspite not having love.
@@allenchilekw5698 The first relationship you will ever form is with yourself and it is based on love. God's word tells us to love our neighbours as ourselves. If loving God and loving people represent one of the greatest commandments of Christ, then any relationship that is not based on love has no meaning.
@@kuunami "What they do" could mean their job/status in life. Also, actions don't necessarily mean the true intention. Don't you know that people will play the role to impress you but that's not their true self? It really takes commitment to the relationship...whatever comes with it.
I thank God he delivered me from feel-good "love" emotions. They always led me to wrong relationships for wrong reasons. He helped tame my flesh with the Word and gave me sobriety thru the mind of Christ and I have clarity. I'm still single but stable in Christ. I choose his wisdom and understanding when the time comes to marry
This was such a timely message for me!😢 such profound and deep wisdom!! I just realized how little I know myself and have lacked the necessary knowledge and wisdom to be a Good Husband to my Wife of 14yrs. And sadly Because I never put forth the effort to learn how to love my Wife like Christ Loves the church and my struggle with the spirit of lust she has decided to file for a divorce. Its been a year since l confessed and repented of my struggle. Praise the Lord that He has sustained me and kept me from giving in to temptation since!! God is Good!!
Good you learned too bad you had to lose Gods best gift being selfish and not using wisdom as the Head of the house. Temporary satisfaction never worth it. May you be better nxt time.
Sincerely, whoever married for love is set for unending stress, depression & frustration, what we humanly call love is actually lust!! We need true information, understanding, wisdom combined together before committing ourselves in any sort of relationship.
Im blessed with a wonderful wife. In 9 years we've never really had a big argument. She is very patient. God definitely brought her across my path. Not the usual type of person I would go for in my past. Hope this helps someone.
I'm watching this in 2024, talking to a gentle and kind man of God that i don't have " feelings for" but something deep down in my soul keeps telling me that he's the one for me 🥺 he has been intentional from day one, I just don't feel the same way, i see him as a brother in the Lord,the most confusing state I've ever been in as a Christian.
@DK1MM Ma'am, if you are certain he's been intentional from the inception, methinks you should open up yourself to see him for who he is. Rarely do women experience that deep sense of a man being intentional. He knows you're struggling to accept him but he still hangs in there. My dear, do not lose him, please, he's your man. If you do lose him, and he moves on with another lady, you might rue ignoring him eternally. I wish you well.
I'm in a inexplicable but simmilar situation, dont know what to do, hes also like a brother to me , but Im also in a long relationship not equally, yoked, in celibacy. Dont know what happend, this man godly brother before half year suddenly appears in my life, and the connection between us is enormous, unexplicable. He gives me subtle confirmations like he loves me Christ like . We seen each other just once. Im so exhausted,its overwhelming ,but I trust Lord. Idont know what to think of love exept of Gods love for us
Just got maaried two days ago. Thank you Dr for the teaching. I look forward to a successful maariage. I will keep on aquiring skills, knowledge and study my beloved wife.
Choose a relationship of purpose and LOVE ❤️ I WILL NOT MARRY ANYONE WITHOUT LOVE NO THANKS Because I LOVE BEING BY MYSELF AND KNOW WHO I AM AND WHOS I AM GOD TAUGHT ME MYSELF I ADD TO YOU AND BUT IF ALL A PERSON WANT IS TO TAKE WILL NOT HAPPEN AND I WILL KOT ALLOW IT IVE BEEN SINGLE FOR SO LONG BUT I K OW MY STANDARDS GODS BEST WILL COME I choose men, friends and family very carefully and wisely I feel IN LOVE WITH GOD I LOVE YEHOVA SO MUCH THAT HE LOVES ME TO SEND HIS SON TO DIE FOR ME I AM JUST LIKE HIM IM NOT PERFECT BUT IM ALOT LIKE MY FATHER FORGIVE ME FATHER FOR MY SINS FORGIVE ME FOR ALL THE WASTED TIME WHEN U WANTED ME TO MOVE ON AND FORWARD AND DIDNT THANK YOU FOR CHOOSING ME
then why marry anyone in the first place? I didn't hear anything from him that should be an initial motivator besides love to motivate me to marry someone. This guy in my opinion has a hard time getting to a point. In fact he sounds more like a politician than someone giving worthy advice.
@@mjwander1 I think you should listen again because he covered it. You can be attracted for any reason but ensure you do the testing that he talked about and do not go into a long term commitment thinking only of the picture of the cake.
Learning yourself is the key to relationships. Know who is a benefit to your destiny and who is not. Study yourself. Find out who you are and what you neee and want. You must love yourself.
Most people grew up with the idea that being in love will rescue a marriage once it gets rocky. The problem is, most people don't even like who they marry. Once the infatuation is gone, they realize that they wouldn't even want their spouse as a friend, let alone live being under the same roof with them.
A friend of told me that she would rather be in a loveless and abusive marriage and have everything she needs for her comfort than be poor without nothing
Whenever i take a piece of time to listen to Dr Myles Munroe, i feel a positive changes nd transformation in my life by his spoken words.... Am Blessed 🙏 🙏 🙏
My two favorite teachers of the Bible are now gone to be with the Lord but they left us with sufficient material to learn more about God, RIP 🙏🏾 Dr. Myles Munroe and Dr. Michael Heiser
I wish I would of heard this 22 years ago. It should be a post all over reminding humans of what to many are a common sense/action/ attitude. “Work for the picture you have in your mind.”
my previous relationship taught me one important thing; love can only do so much. its like relying on a tightrope rather than a bridge. where's the trust? where's the humbleness? etc.
I would bring a different perspective. This knowing yourself is not necessarily ideal. Your proclivities will be designed by what you listen to the most and past traumas. Spend time with God always. He will guide you to the best you you could ever be and will give clarity.
I agree you need to know God. You also need to know kw yourself and others. They are all different ball games. Many Christians have been taught to know God alone. They are taught God will lead them I. Marriage. Yes, God will guide. But He will guide based on what knowledge, people, and places you exposed your self to. Beware.
Ive been saying alot that Myles was the original to speak on relationships. With a successful marriage of 30 years ,pastoral experience and a heart to see relationships work. Riep
Unfortunately, self-help books are not in the traditional academic curriculum. Students graduate with career knowledge but ignorant in human relations. The result is that the implementation of career knowledge becomes hell: my boss doesn't like me, my supervisor hates me, the lecturer is wicked...... Etc
09/04/23, I believe that a relationship or marriage between 2 people, a man and a women, can only succeed in Christ being equally yoked in GOD, cause GOD is love.
I wish I heard this message before I got married the first time. I went through hell all in the name of Love. This time around I focused on really substantive things and characteristics and have had a totally different experience in marriage, and Love was the result. I did a video last night about it
I will like to see the video. I absolutely agree that love is the result of Marriage not the cause or reason or basis of marriage. Actually the "Husband, love your wife" instruction makes people think love is an act, effort or work to be done....meanwhile if you search the scriptures deeply you will see that "when that which is perfect comes, you will do away with imperfect things."
Blessing? More like a curse I can’t marry some ugly mother f! I’d rather stay single then to wake up next to mister ugly? There is something wrong with you people.
