“Now to him who is able to do far more abundantly than all that we ask or think, according to the power at work within us, to him be glory in the church and in Christ Jesus throughout all generations, forever and ever. Amen.” -Ephesians 3:20-21
Amen 🙏🏽
1. Overcome the fear of being alone. (No matter what, whether I’m in a relationship or not, God is still good and able).
REJOICE IN THE LORD ALWAYS
2. Overcome the fear of what the opposite sex thinks of you. (No longer idolizing the idea of marriage and a spouse).
3. Overcome the fear of getting hurt. (There are risks, but the possibility that things may not work out, should no longer be devastating to you).
4. Overcome the fear of not getting what you want. (Be willing to obey God, if his will for you, is to remain single). God desires the best for you.
Thank you for the highlights
Thank you for the summary.
Thank you!
What I don't understand is that if you desire marriage, want to continue to glorify God within marriage and have a desire for intimacy within marriage, why then would God call you to singleness knowing that you might struggle with sexual sin outside of marriage? So many people have told Christian singles that maybe God has called them to singleness and that they should be okay with the possibility of remaining single but I, being one of those single Christians that have been told this constantly, truly feels called to marriage and feel that I can better serve God through marriage. I'm not afraid of being alone and I don't fear what the opposite sex may think of me and I have asked God to not allow marriage to become an idol because I don't want anything to come before my relationship with Him. I have overcome the fear of not getting what I want and being okay with remaining single if that is God's will for my life.

Don't listen to false opinionators and start trusting in God's plan for you.
First ask God first to help you healing your wounds, and when healed, your wife will appear.
God is a good Father. He gives the desire for a godly marriage. He will bring it to pass.
This is too much to being said as a coincidence because I was combating myself into staying with in a toxic relationship. I was praying for a long time for God giving me some sort of signs. I was desperate. I didnt know if I was with the right guy. Now, i'm grateful to stumble upon this video. It brings light to my questions. May God bless you and keep doing God's words. Amen.
I’m grateful that God kept me single and healing for a while after a relationship of mine ended. Even though I had met my current girlfriend and hopefully future wife a year before we started our relationship, God kept us apart for a long time and I believe his timing was perfect
I’ve gone through all of these & I feel like I’ve overcame them all at some degree. That doesn’t mean they never bother me from time to time but I’ve let go a lot from the last few years that I thought I never could. Sometimes we rush things but God had a plan in the wait! I’m so glad that He didn’t give me a relationship I wasn’t ready for.
It's simple for me:
1)I just want someone who has a love of Truth and isn't afraid to believe what God wants us to believe, and not what man says to believe. False doctrine has captured the hearts of so many Christians today, that you have to get all that straightened out before making a serious commitment.
2) I want someone that I feel a connection with; either early on, or soon after going on a 5 to 7 dates with.
3) I want someone that respects me enough to carve out the right amount of time for us to grow in our relationship.
4) I want her to be my best friend and vice versa.
That's not too much is it?
In my own experience it would be too much to ask because God didn't give us a feeling of connection until after we had prayed and been convinced that marrying each other was God wanted. We fell quickly in love after that but we were being careful to guard our hearts until after the praying and Godly council was accomplished.
Same for "best friend." We didn't want to be best friends if we were going to wind up parting ways which meant we waited and became best friends AFTER fully committing.
Nah..I don't think that's too much to ask
Those are very basic
@@leilawilliams8175 a full connection can (with some folks) take a little longer than with others. A lot of factors and variables come into play - so it's not a one-size-fits-all.
Same.. I have the same thoughts
I heard someone says if you desire to be intimate with someone then you are not called to be single. God gave you that desire so it's meant for you to be married.
It depends. I am a widow of four decades. Currently, I am interested in a gentleman four years younger than I, we're not dating, but we are friends of mutual friends. So, I go back and forth on a few things about him, the more I learn about him, the more of an 'informed consent' I have regarding the potentiality of a possible relationship. Outside of this, over the years, thoughts of intimacy come and go.
That's lust and that's a sin.
@@585Courtney No its not.
I feel my life has a lot of meaning and joy in the purposes God has given me and keeps unfolding. Not afraid to be alone since i love being alone with Him! The fear of getting hurt is definitely an intense one.
I can say I have overcome the fear of what the opposite sex thinks of me and being hurt. But I do still struggle of wondering if I will never find the right person, and so forth. Once you get hurt due to breakups and stuff like that enough times, it doesn't necessarily hurt as much because I just thank the Lord from saving me from the wrong person so I can continue to build myself up and build my relationship with God so I'm able to find the right woman. God bless.🙏
🫂thank you for sharing. I'm encouraged because I thought I was alone. I'm always repenting for desiring to be loved and chosen and makes me miserable
@@Lee_Nolo God will take care of you. Trust in him and his will for your life and he'll lead you to many great blessings.🙏
how did the process of you overcoming that fear go?
@@inprogress8832 It was a bit of a struggle at first. Once I started to read my Bible and growing closer with the Lord and physical activity such as weight lifting just gave me confidence. So now I just have the mentality that if someone of the opposite sex has a bad opinion of me there's no reason to stress over it and just move on with my day.
Thank you, I'm going to be honest now. I truly feel regretful for some previous comments I've made about your advice. I now understand why I wrote so harshly of you, it was all because I had believed in a lie about marriage which you debunked. I had taken pride in my ability to wait on the Lord for so long and when you said in one of your videos that marriage isn't something determined by a marriage certificate but by your relation to that person. I felt stupid for waiting so long, I don't know why, maybe because I was taken advantage of in my youth one time and I didn't want to think of me and him as married. That's probably why it hurt me so much. But you're right that Adam and Eve didn't have a certificate nor a wedding ceremony and they were still considered married by God's standard. In this moment I don't think of myself as married but I don't know what God thinks. I can't be together with that man, he might not even be alive or he's still living on the other side of the world. He wasn't Christian but neither was I back then. I was very hurt for a long time and that's why I took it out on you. But you speak facts that not many other Christians would dare to speak of and always base them on scriptures.
The points you made in this video were all very good and accurate. I struggle with all of them, except that I don't cope with my loneliness in the way of settling with just anyone, nor do I jump into a relationship with just anyone and too soon for the sake of company but decided to move back in to live with my mother even though I'm already 31. I don't care what people think, it's still better than living all alone anymore. My mental health can't cope with that anymore. At least I'm not just cohabiting with someone I'm not serious with.
You've given me a lot to think about certainly. Thank you sincerely Mark ❤
I liked reading this and witnessing your vulnerability and accountability. That’s awesome. Keep on growing!! 👏👏

Most people have at least a decade, but more likely three, of desires for intimacy that have to wait. Why does God let us struggle like that? In fact, even after marriage, there are times when intimacy has to be put on hold. Learning to not be ruled by the demands of our flesh is part of spiritual training. Really, we should be grateful for this training because spiritual maturity and a close relationship with God is ultimately better than temporary pleasure.
If you desire marriage, God did not called you to singleness
I'm right there with you! I have just prayed to the Lord, if now is not the time for me to be married, then please take away the desire because I don't know what else to do and I don't want to live in a constant state of frustration.
Ive prayed that same prayer your not alone @@katrinahagood2272
People use empty words when they say "Maybe God is calling you to singleness" we will all be single for a time, but most people are intended to get married and have children (desire for children is a non-negotiable of a God-honoring Christian marriage). I think that God wants you to end up with somebody equally yoked and to serve and honor Him as a couple. But people often use excuses and empty words to console you when you're disappointed or waiting. Don't get discouraged. Listen to Scripture, not to cliches that people tell each other "honeyed words". Focus on God and perhaps inquire how to find a Christian suitor, maybe that means getting a job, or getting more fit, or letting go of fears, or forgiving your parents. However people often don't want to tell you this harsh news or say "improve your life/walk" So instead they lie and say singleness is God's plan for a huge percentage of people when the Bible says that its not. Marriage is the norm and its how God made and intends human society
Who is "the right person" when every single human being is "wrong"?
I'll tell you what is wrong with married couples : Ego !
Grow up and let go of your ego. Stop being abusive. The conflict is inside each one of us. Don't throw your frustrations on each other.
Know what to do separate and what to do as a married couple. Don't clash heads over small stuff and don't make a storm with a drop of water !
Never fight ! Discuss, present your arguments and shut up ! You won't change her and she won't change you. Respect your boundaries and learn how to live on that.
Forgive from the heart and the way God does. You won't believe the how many couples can still remember ALL the offenses they commit against each other. If you remember, you didn't forget.
Marriage is not "bait-and-switch." Who you portray during your dating and engagement season must be who you are during marriage. Don't fake it. Don't scam each other.
If you continue being who you were when you first met, then your marriage will last until one of the couples die. Simple as that, but the reality is that people change and they don't know how to adjust to change....
True, especially what you said about our EGOs! This is also what I've come to realise since becoming a Christian. Especially young people these days, even Christians are proud and selfish to various extents. But it's a never ending battle with our flesh.
@@Nothingbutdust_ Amem ! The Satanic attack on families is real. Stay strong in the faith and close to Jesus. Be vigilant in prayer, always...
I KNOW I’m called to marriage, but there’s definitely a part of me very frustrated with the timing. I’m nearly 34 and never dated seriously (only once for 3 weeks).
how do you know you're called ?
58 , ten years divorced have found " the one" but there are......"road blocks" right now, having to wait on God's timing....
Don't worry. 33 is still quite young.
I had my first relationship at 30yrs.
It was the same frustration that made me tell God I was done waiting on him, so I jumped on the available guy that showed interest, even when everything said "This is not God"
It ended after 4months.. Went ahead to commit my emotions to someone else still not from God, came out bruised emotionally, more than I have ever been
I have brought myself back to the place of waiting on God and actively walking with him to do what he tells me to do
It's sad that it took me emotional hurts to realize that God knows what is best for me and wants to give it to me
Still 39 and single. I had 6 boyfriends and I still keep my physical virginity. I learned to be happy alone and, if God wants, He'll send someone. By the way, I met a non-Christian who behaved better than me. That humbled me as a Christian. This man treated me like a princess and with empathy, although he is not interested emotionally in me. He was way better than my ex-boyfriends. So, waiting is worth it!!!
I've been going through all these things myself. I feel closer and closer to getting the marriage that I want. Almost 5 years being saved, God has taken me on a rough journey and ripped/stripped idols from my heart.
So much truth in idolizing marriage!
Another thing women should keep in mind is to not adopt the attitude of the world. Marriage is sacred and important. You got to have the attitude of divorce is not an option. Things we'll get to the point where you'll quit. Just like in basic training or buds or rip if you don't quit you'll be fine.
Great teaching. It help me to assess my heart.
Thank GOD I'm free from all those fears 🎉🎉🎉
Love this! Blessings my brother in Christ, for you and your family.
So good! Very reassuring to keep staying the course in waiting
Great video. I personally had to improve myself esteem and heal from trauma in order to no longer idolize marriage and have a fear of being alone
how did you heal?
I’m working on it. I realized I was idolizing marriage and I’m putting it in God’s hands. If I get rejected, I thank God and believe it wasn’t part of his plan. Rather than getting upset. I’m not settling. Bc if I did. I would be with someone who isn’t leading me to Christ.
Thank you for this brother Mark 😊 God Bless You. God wants me to hear these things. 😊
Thanks brother Mark!
Your videos are very meaningful, may God bless you of what you are doing 🙏🏻🙏🏻🙏🏻

Thanks!
I love this and I needed this. I've never been married in my life and here I am almost 40. I've been in my fair share of toxic relationships. I even take a couple years or a few years of a break in between and then it's like a re run when I get into the next. I wonder sometimes if I'll ever get married. I want to be for once and it gets old seeing everybody else getting married. Some more than once even lol. Then again I look at it as it's good I never got married to any of the past guys because we definitely weren't good for eachother. Hopefully one day the lord gives me a happy and healthy one and definitely a long term one. I agree though there are a couple things I still need to work on in myself.
I have the opposite problem of #1. I really like being alone, value my independence, freedom (not to be single to date willy nilly), and guaranteed peace I feel when in solitude. I can't imagine even sharing living space with someone because it might feel like someone is in my personal space too much. Though in the long run I do want marriage, I currently feel completely apathetic/not interested in dating whatsoever. You could put someone attractive in front of me but I still feel aromantic and don't know why. Would love if you did a video on this.
This is timely
I Rejoice I thr Lord Always! not looking for validation. Great info! No not perfect heart no fear
My requirements for a man are simple, yet it feels like im asking too much. I just feel God sometimes asks too much from us - to keep having faith and moving forward with hope. this has literally drained me. i've lost hope, no matter how much i try to stay positive. its been years, im unable to trust God has something in plan for me. are there no real men of God out there, God???
I am a married woman and my husband and I run a ministry thst helps single Christians on their path to marriage. I would be happy to look over your list of requirements if you'd be okay with sharing them here.
We're out here. We're just not what you guys want. No I'm not trying to attack you. Say for example a guy's short. Most women would reject him because of something outside of his control.
Don’t rely on your own strength to get through he never wanted you to rely on your own strength he will get u through God loves u made u and haves plan for you that’s why he created you
I used to be terrified of being alone, God is the only one I have and need❤ I know he has my husband ready for me I can feel it I’ve been praying for him ❤
I am a single mother. Teaching in the school. I have butterflies when I saw my fellow teacher one in particular. But I don't know how to make a move😢
Speaking from the heart, thank you for normalizing the desire to get married. I wish that more people in the faith community would do this. The desire to get married gets conflated with "idolizing marriage" to the extent that you can't even express a desire to get married without being accused of making marriage into an idol. I believe that the sin is in mishandling your feelings- but I believe that your feelings are valid, and it's important to be honest with yourself, not repress them.
One thing i noticed in dating is how many women will struggle with self worth when a guy is explaining her missteps and how to correct them. Nah. Your made in the image of god. Your valuable. If that man aint offering to provide or protect you who cares. Another thing I noticed with ladies is they don't understand how men can just look at you all messy and still find you twice as attractive. "Trust me show him your butt and its he reacts like its the first time hes seen it. Lol. As ladies we underestimate the wife goggles." Paraphrasing a woman. 😂 I love women. When they're mentally healhty they're so fun to talk to and what not.
Amen 🙏
Fasting + prayer = conquer fear during covid era learned to be alone with my pets…they passed away two years ago 19 years old same year two months apart. The demon of fear has gone because Greater is He who lives in me ( Jesus) . My fear is getting betray a taken for granted .He has done so by engaging through the spirit of lust so famous till now because of the lockdowns …. I’d rather have Jesus. Yes I wish to be married someday, nevertheless waiting on the Lord. Sheep’s an wolves don’t interact.
Lord Heavenly Father and in the name of Jesus Christ I pray for strength and wisdom to save my marriage. Please have my husband come back home to me. Please save my marriage. Amen.
Were is she at mark been praying most of my whole life i get rejected all the time by women especially Christian women they just aren't interested in me you have no idea how loneliness is god has blessed you with a wife you have no idea how hard it is in todays world . Women sleep around a lot in church nowadays or have kids i want a proverbs 31 women . Easy for you to say this tou are married.
Looks like your in the wrong 'church' I know it's hard these days. I'd think as a man, you'd have more options. Women like a confident man. You seem the opposite.
@@danilaroche1156 well then how come I get hit on by women in the world and not the church . If I'm not confident ?
@@danilaroche1156 I forgot ro disclose I am disabled and ro me it seems women don't like disabled men they always go for the chad guy I have been to several singles e ent in church and the women are either to old or they go for the chad type .
Hallelujah!!! I’m blessed and favored with $60,000 every week! Now I can afford anything and support the work of God and the church. For Your glory, LORD! HALLELUJAH!
…..I think God allows people to get married all day everyday whether or not they overcome anything.
He permits a lot. The question is whether or not our security in Him allows us to be secure in ourselves.
Security in ourselves smells attractive to others…
I have over come depression. I am trying to get my life together.
Man of God you're teaching great staff..I absolutely value and love marriage,but I don't know what really wrong with me, I've been married twice but didn't work, I get married to men who truly are heartless, I've suffered alot with my kids.Right now am single with 5kids,am 38yrs old,is it possible for me to get a husband?am a Christian.
Of course it is. It's in God's timing. You need healing from old trauma. Probably goes back to childhood. God is able. Get in His perfect will. A solid church helps a great deal. Fellowship with genuine Christians.
Àmen 🙏🏼please pray for my marriage 🙏🏼
I am getting use to being alone.
I want this guy's hair 🙂
I've seen a lot of women cry in America at least about not being able to find a man well they're doing things like hang out their ex or expect that man to be a feminist. You cannot be a feminist and a Christian. To die on hill like that is silly. Men in america pretty much dont care about relationships. So it makes things a huge struggle for woman. Men can just become passport bros if the want non feminist women. Its a interesting situation in america.
This and the major issue that no one wants to address is that sexual immorality is running rampant in the church.
@@Vincent-yp1gj I told some other dude who who tried to imply that I was unsaved I told him focus on the church why are there no baptisms and leadership seems to be unprepared to lead. I've certainly suffered from sin like idolatry in sexual immorality but I'm actively repenting. I often had questions regarding the use of variations of tradecraft in highly specific situations. Nobody understood enough to advise me. They just said oh the lord controls outcomes so who cares. I had to look up scripture on my own and analyze everything to the best of my ability I see nothing in Scripture that bans the use of tradecraft if the intent is to protect someone. I also observed that they would fight to defend obvious false teachings like being able to lose your salvation and the the scripture that quote has nothing to do with salvation and says nothing about Christians. I've been wondering what is going on with some of the churches for a while.
❤❤❤❤❤❤
Elina cosa facceva ha scuola ieri
Mark, is it wrong for married Christian couples to not want kids?
What about the fear of missing out? When will God take that away?
Some feelings and thoughts we ask God to take away have a habit of creeping back in, and we wrestle with again, over and over. It's a war with some problems, not just one battle.
It's important to pray about and get active with what Kingdom work God has for you now as a single. Sometimes, life feels like we are missing out and empty because we are wasting it!

Feminism is respect for women and there is nothing wrong with that. So please stop telling men to be misogynistic in the name of Christ. God is half male, half female. That means both genders are equal. Okay? Just try not to use that word anymore. Peace.
God is not female. God is Father get it right
I get so much from his channel but sometimes he will slip some absolute hateful nonsense about women and I just pray to God that women remain deaf to it. We are not less than men. And the church continues to teach that nonsense. I just went on a date with a man who (by virtue of my job title) had the audacity to say he could never be with a woman who didnt submit by merging all her fiscal assets to his (inheritances, business accounts, EVERYTHING, etc.)
The teachings that women are lesser than men is what allows women to be exploited, abused, and harmed all over this world.
The Marxist indoctrination is strong with you, Shelby.
Modern Feminism is Communist ideologies masquerading itself as justice.
At the core of Communism is atheism. You are one who claims to know God, but your words prove you are a reprobate concerning the faith.
Step one of the "Four steps for ideological subversion". (Yuri Bezmenov, 1985)
Demoralization - this is a process which can take about 15-30 years to perform (a generation). During this stage, the moral fibre and integrity of the country is put into question, thereby creating doubt in the minds of the people. To do so, manipulation of the media and academia is required to influence young people. As the younger generation embraces new values, such as Marxism and Leninism, the older generation slowly loses control simply through attrition. Again, true facts no longer matter during this stage, but rather creating perceptions are of paramount importance.
Communism and Religion
Abolished - all religious and metaphysics is rejected. Engels and Lenin agreed that religion was a drug or “spiritual booze” and must be combated. *To them, atheism put into practice meant a “forcible overthrow of all existing social conditions.”*
Eliminating American exceptionalism, fundamental change of national identity, *structural deconstruction of foundational principles, elimination of religion. Embedding a new societal design upon the psyche of generations through ideological academia, peer pressure by elites upon academics and society to convince that prior values were inherently flawed, racist, prejudiced etc. National identity is diluted with aspersions toward historical references. National History is re-written, re-defined, and molded to fit the new intended behavioral model and create the new values.*
It's funny how you say "Peace" at the end of your comment when the goal of Feminism is to create division and destabilize society.
“[T]he useful idiots, the leftists who are idealistically believing in the beauty of the Soviet socialist or Communist or whatever system, when they get disillusioned, they become the worst enemies. That’s why my KGB instructors specifically made the point: never bother with leftists. Forget about these political prostitutes. Aim higher. [...] They serve a purpose only at the stage of destabilization of a nation. *For example, your leftists in the United States: all these professors and all these beautiful civil rights defenders. They are instrumental in the process of the subversion only to destabilize a nation.* When their job is completed, they are not needed any more. They know too much. Some of them, when they get disillusioned, when they see that Marxist-Leninists come to power-obviously they get offended-they think that they will come to power. That will never happen, of course. They will be lined up against the wall and shot.”

Jesus said to him, “Have I been with you so long, and you still do not know me, Philip?

The words that I say to you I do not speak on my own authority, but the *Father* who dwells in me does his works. Believe me that I am in the *Father* and the *Father* is in me, or else believe on account of the works themselves.

And the Word became flesh and dwelt among us, and we have seen his glory, glory as of the only Son from the *Father,* full of grace and truth.
Isaiah 9:6
For to us a child is born, to us a *son* is given; and the government shall be upon *his* shoulder, and *his name* shall be called Wonderful Counselor, Mighty God, *Everlasting Father, Prince* of Peace.
2 Corinthians 1:3-4
Blessed be the *God and Father* of our Lord Jesus Christ, the *Father* of mercies and God of all comfort, who comforts us in all our affliction, so that we may be able to comfort those who are in any affliction, with the comfort with which we ourselves are comforted by God.
Luke 10:21-22
In that same hour he rejoiced in the Holy Spirit and said, “I thank you, *Father,* Lord of heaven and earth, that you have hidden these things from the wise and understanding and revealed them to little children; yes, *Father,* for such was your gracious will. All things have been handed over to me by my *Father,* and no one knows who the Son is except the *Father,* or who the *Father* is except the Son and anyone to whom the Son chooses to reveal *him.”*
John 10:30
I and the *Father* are one.”
This is complete nonsense.

As a Christian Ik god wants faith, but as a Christian I also don’t want to enter into relationship and build something that’s not going to last.. I want that confirmation and I believe god does do this.. like if she’s interested and pursues god.. that may be a sign.. but also it goes back to me just wanting it to work out and if it won’t work, just leave it alone all together type of deal..
