This will be my first time of commenting on a RU-vid video like this. This spoke right to my heart. It’s the 31st of December 2022 and I’ve been down with a breakup I just experienced. It’s so bad. I am down in every way possible: financially, emotionally, and career wiseI’ve never felt worse in my whole life. This was just what I needed to cross over fully free! I penned this down as a testimony cos I’m coming back to testify big time. God bless you pastor Steve
I can feel you 😭😭same situation . I got rejected by a person whom i thought i loves me and iam stuck in my career .feeling soo emotional,it's suffocating me .please pray for 🙏.who ever seeing this comment
That is beautiful my friend and I BELIEVE in you and in our Savior that can take over when we can't go anymore. I'm also struggling and been through so much that I plan on making making MAJOR changes to my life.
👐🙏 I'm sorry for your break up in addition financially, emotionally and career hurt. You will get through this with the grace of God. I'm not sure if you pray or live for God, but I know if you go to him with eveything on your heart and mind even if it's pain and tears just ask him to guide you and strengthen you in this moment. Ask God to take your pain, tears and hurt. Give him your burden and ask him that you no longer what this and release it to him. It will take time and growth but you got this. Things happened even sometimes for a reason whether it's good or bad. I pray you grow and keep a God in this situation that cause you pain in the beginning and the laughter with joy at the end.

My weaknesses always draw me closer to God. Happy New Year!!!!!! Thanks for all your messages 2022 p. So appreciate your a caring minister what’s happening in my life thank you.
This is such a timely message. I have never shared my story on RU-vid as I didn't think anyone would ever read this but I've come to understand how therapeutic it is to have support from strangers and a community of wonderful people who don't know you. I was pursuing a relationship with a guy who is a new convert; our relationship is long distance thus lots of communication and trust is vital. We had known each other since high school at the age of 17 and had a wonderful friendship since. We are now 30 and reconnected after all these years looking to pursue something more than friends. At the time of our reconnection, he was going through one of the darkest moments of his life. He was depressed and suicidal. I had no intention of having anything more but called him to be there for him because no one else was and I genuinely loved him as a person and my friend. Our friendship birthed into something more and he was persistent and spoke to me everyday for 9 months. In the 9 months, Holy Spirit had prompted me to pray for him and as a result, he gave his life to Christ and got baptised (he was born in a Christian home but was never taught properly how to walk with God). We had planned to meet up at the end of this year to meet my family, church and friends as we wanted to take this relationship forward. Leading up to this we butted heads (as relationships do) and we agreed to have some time to cool off and he told me he needed time to seek God via prayer and fasting. This was the first time we had an actual argument and in the heat of the moment, I've said things I'm not proud of and know it's not my best moment however we did conclude with both eventually staying calm, apologising and praying at the end. As we agreed to have some time to process what had happened I waited for a week, which then turned out to 3 months of silence. Yes, I did look him up on FaceBook to find that he had been out partying and went on a date with another girl. He never came back even though those were his last words to me, 'I'll spoil you when I come back'. I have been grieved for the past 3 months, anxious, lost and not knowing what to do as he told me he would return but never did. I've never been lied to and ghosted before, especially from someone you've had a long friendship with. I tried to reach out via calling, messaging his sister and emailing him only to be ignored. Never did I think he would do this or handle the situation in this manner because we had discussed how vital communication and conflict resolution is. Little did he know he had hurt my family, church and friends who had all waited eagerly to meet him too. I felt like I had prepared a banquet for guest who never showed up. I was heart broken to see how this affected those around me. It wasn't the fact he's seeing someone else but HOW he handled the situation. He didn't even have the decency to call or text me to say he no longer wanted to pursue a relationship/ tell me it's not working or not coming to see me. I cried for many nights fighting bitterness, anxiety and hurt from being abandoned. The thoughts of 'What ifs' haunted me daily and fear began to grip my heart. Most people would never have waited this long but I did because I really did believe in us and everything we had. He had never given me a reason to doubt until now. However, being proactive I sent him a Christmas present with a letter of apology owing up to what I did wrong and thanked him for being my friend and the time we had together. I also bought him books to help him with forgiveness (The Bait of Satan by John Bevere) and made him a video of our best moments via Vimeo (which took me a whole day to make). Through all my hurts and disappointments, I knew all too well now that you don't repay evil for evil but overcome evil with good. As hard as it was, I made the decision to honour God by honouring him still and prayed for him despite how I hurt I felt. What I'm most proud of is that I did not let anyone talk down on his name or allowed slander to leave my mouth. Despite what's happened, I spoke well of him still and chose to protect his reputation and name (which isn't always the easiest at times). At times like this, I'm glad I've read my bible and know scripture to combat the lies of the enemy. Although this is not the best way to end 2022 and I wouldn't have chosen it to end this way, I wouldn't change it either. I walked away from this proud of myself with clean hands and a pure heart knowing I did what was honourable to God. I went and got counselling, surrounded myself with friends and mentors who have godly wisdom and sought after inner healing from the help of my pastor who is a gem! I'm glad it happened. Because looking at this in hindsight, God helped me doge a bullet and saved me a lot of heart ache. I still believe he is a wonderful person but also going through a lot of hurt from past relationships that haven't been properly healed. I don't agree with his behaviour and nor am I saying it was acceptable but I understand hurting people hurt people. I've grown and learnt to extend grace and compassion through this journey. The best part about this was I was able to help lead him back to Christ, supported his water baptism and helped him get planted in a church with amazing people and pastors. It's up to him now and his actions are now his convictions. But as for me, I choose joy and to rejoice!!! Thank you to anyone reading this story and I pray it gives you hope and encourages you to choose love and trust God
You are so strong!! Thank you for sharing this. I’m also going through a lot of heartache from a brother in Christ and the church I’ve been attending. This definitely brought me encouragement! 🤍✨ sending you a huge hug 🫂
Thank you for sharing sister, there IS healing in sharing the lessons learned. I find myself in a similar storm, but though I do not see the path out of it yet, I do know it will work for His glory and good plan.
@@MariaRuiz-bh5qt Thank you! It's been super painful but there is purpose in the pain! Hang onto God and surround yourself with godly people to help you through the process. Don't do it alone. This is why God has called us to be His church and help carry each other's burdens. Praying for you lovely xxx 🙏
@@robert91rs Thank you for your kind words. It's really encouraging to read your post and to know that someone actually cares enough to leave a message of encouragement. Keep your head up high and gaze on God. He sees you and is listening to you. I believe healing is already starting. And if He can do it for me, He can do it for you. Praying for you brother 🙏

This message came right when I needed to hear it. Thank you, Jesus! I will not go into 2023 looking back at what was, trying to make it what is. It's time to step forward and let go. It's time to leave the past in the past. Amen
In the pain is purpose Amen I'm glad about it..the pain was not nice but there is purpose in it..Praise the Lord I'm glad for the rejection..I have many questions why everything happend the way it does..but I know someday I will understand..
Pastor or anyone who can answer my question... I had a conversation with a Muslim one day and he said why pray to Jesus, When you can pray straight to God without the middle man. And in John 14:6 Jesus said "I am the way, the truth, and the life. No one can come to the father except through me." In each era of God he place a disciple to lead the people to him, but is it possible to go to God without saying Father in the name of Jesus . Well I have spoked and said God help me, is that acceptable and did God hear or acknowledged me when I talk to him
Amen I'm doing my best to rejoice! I'm struggling with wondering if I could have changed something. Thanks be to God I know his plan is good and a victory!! Yes although not much of my life makes sense to me. But I understand God only gives you so much understanding.. Good advice Amen looking to the future!
cant we be glad about the future but also be real about the fact that tomorrow isnt promised? why would i sit here trying to trick my mind everyday knowing that if nothing happened today then oh well he didnt say yes then..... or should i lie to myself everyday untill i go nuts? at my job? then get fired? lmao nah ima be honest in this b.s. and still praise him and pray he works me out of this but im not gonna act happy about this life or the trails cus its been nothing but trails. im 0-29 lol with everyday 1 thing for sure; today can be my last smh
This year God has been teaching me how to Let Go and let Him. I am entering 2023 with a heart of surrender to Him. It’s more peaceful here…at surrenderville😊. I am grateful 🙏🏽
Hallelujah 🙏🏻🙏🏻🙏🏻🙏🏻♥️ I needed this praise the Lord. This past year was my darkest but God is working and I am a new creation thru his grace and mercy... Thank you pastor Steven
