I appreciate this conversation. I am at the point where I have given up on God. I am going to be real now. The guest spoke of one major issue that they each dealt with. While deeply painful, there are people like myself who have endured months, years of stressors and trials. All the while you keep waiting on God and more and more negative things happen. I am at that place. No one talks about how your confidence in God is destroyed, as well as the confidence in yourself. You can do all the spiritual warfare battles and rebuke all the things and even still, God fails you. I truly hate how people say…your going to be better for it…it will make you stronger. Or it all works together for your good because some people never live to see that occur. There are many times when it doesn’t. No one talks about having PTSD, long-term depression and suicidal thoughts/actions as a result of being in the wilderness season so long. No one talks about how people are taking their lives because they feel as though God has abandoned or worst, condoned the attacks and warfare set upon them. We are human vessels on an earthly planet and we as humans will NEVER be like Jesus. I wish this conversation spoke more to that. Ive yet to see anyone tackle this issue as it seems taboo to really talk about. It leaves people to think that they are always doing something wrong or inherently wrong. Its especially hard when you see people who could care less about God or living for him thriving! No stress…no warfare..basic needs met. Yet some believers who go hard for God are being evicted, cars repossessed, major health issues…the math is not mathing for me anymore. The young lady said “God cut her”. Man, people are feeling like God “gutted” them with the sharpest sword. Regardless of what Satan does, God allows it and that is what hurts the most. I hope there is a true conversation to be had so people can know and understand that there levels to this. I think that I will be starting a channel that specifically speaks to this segment of believers. While its said everyone has problems..every one’s problems or challenges are not the same. Thanks again for at least speaking on this topic.
I want to really validate you as I’m in the same boat. When you have endured long seasons of crushing blows and have prayed for years for breakthrough or opportunity and it doesn’t happen, it can be discouraging. While I’m learning to not view God in a transactional lens, I think I’m also struggling with the constant lack of support and God allowing kinder people to come into my life. And just overall prayers not being answered when you see him answer and bless others who do far less. But, despite that is the honesty of feeling hurt and bruised by God. It’s a real feeling and thing. And agree everything doesn’t always come together
@@KaimaVixen Thank you. ❤️ I notice on these forums, it’s a taboo topic to discuss. Many people deal with it but aren’t secure enough to say that they doubt God or are angry at times. But God already knows and doesn’t hold it against us. Most CZcams channels and even churches like to keep it surface level for “views”. I have stopped looking for validation or answers from these types CZcamsrs as many of them aren’t equipped or educated (spiritually) enough to tackle tough issues. There are LEVELS to warfare and faith and not many channels tackle it. IMO, the more of a threat you are to the devil, the more intense warfare you receive that some will never understand. Since I posted this, I’m actively fighting to reaffirm my faith with God and believe and affirm his promises as well as breaking of any curses off of my life. I plan on starting my own channel soon where people will have a safe space to discuss this. Also, check out Derek Prince sermons on deliverance. Also, channel by the name of @Martina. Her videos have helped me better understand what’s possibly going on how to possibly fight it. Study spiritual warfare and deliverance. I will pray for you that you, too, find some peace in the storms. We will make it in Jesus name. ✝️🙏🏽❤️❤️
@@GlamGadz I very much agree with you. I think no one wants to dive deeper into the uncomfortable topics of faith. And you are also right about the impact. I first hand know the effect of spiritual bypassing or superficial conversations in regards to faith. Not saying that is what is happening here, but I agree after watching these videos I feel more discouraged than encouraged, because I know some trials are very deep and disheartening. I am also one of those people who have experienced deeper levels of warefare and have seen it's impact on my life. Every thing you said was spot on and I feel is so relevant to my expereince and that of many others.
@@KaimaVixen Amen. I’m glad you said that about not accusing this channel..I don’t want to seem like I’m attacking this channel. I’m not. This conversation/video was still appreciated and has blessed someone in where they are in their walk with God. 😊
Yooooo!!! THIS!!! I can one hundred and thousand percent relate to this!!!! You perfectly articulated my exact sentiment regarding my own pro-longed season of trials. Been diligent in seeking the Lord for YEARS and have remained in a place of stagnancy and being met with even MORE challenges. As you said, the math isn’t mathing
I feel so normal now. I thought I was the only one that was torn between faith and the things that are happening around me. I can relate to Mary stories. 🙏🏾🙏🏾🙏🏾
I pray God continues to heal Mary's heart and her journey and faith goes from strength to strength. Her story really moved me and she really provided some great words for those dealing with grief.
I'm in this place. I'm very angry and have been struggling for the past couple of years. I've spoken to a pastor about this, but stopped going to church months ago. I lost my desire along with some of my will to live after a lifetime of hardship and feeling like I'm never properly helped or guided by god. I feel he's careless and cruel with his people. I can't hardly pray without yelling and cursing God out, so I don't feel He's my safe space anymore. He never comforts me anyway. I don't see how he's a good father. I've even denounced christ. I plan on getting back into therapy. That is one of the only few things that has helped me before.
@Godlywoman88, wish I could hug you. As someone who left christianity, I understand what you mean in trusting in a god that isn't coming through for you. Understanding the reality that this life is plagued with so much sufferings and evil. I do not believe there is a God. It is so much easier to accept the sufferings and trials of life when you remove a loving god out of the picture, think it is harder to deal with when you think of god as a loving father. I lost my husband about 3 years ago, my daughter was just 4 years old. Having to navigate life and parenting as a solo parent and trying to provide for both of us has been a journey. Tell yourself and people what you want to see in your life. Meditate, give gratitude to the universe that has been in existence for 13 billion years. Your brain will begin to spot survival opportunities. Going to therapy is a great idea. Try watching Dr Tara Swart, she is a neuroscientist. I love her interviews. She has greatly helped me have a positive mindset. I deconstructed from christianity when I realised that 5 million children under the age of 5 die yearly since 2022 and prior to 1990 that number was 13 million, glad that with science less children have died each year. I started watching Paulogia, Alex O'Connor channels, Sam Harris, Christopher Hitchens. I believe in evolution as man could not have been created 6,000 years ago as the bible story tells us. Also the Noah's Ark isn't true, there is no historical evidence for the resurrection of Jesus other than the testimony of 2 eye witnesses. And so with these doubts what books in the bible can we believe. My belief is the bible was manmade by men to help humans understand the problems of sufferings and evils. This the funny thing about christians, when our prayers are answered they say god has done it, when we face a challenging situation including grief, they say who can question god/ who knows the mind of god. Also on one of the podcast, someone says praise God I got the promotion but how about the parent that has just lost a child and has been praying for that child to be healed to the same god. Also isn't it odd that your religion is mainly driven by where you are from. If you are from Nigeria, you are either going to be Christian if rom the south or Muslim if from the north. If you are chinese you won't believe in a god. We are very much influenced by a specific type of religion based on where we come from. Hang in there, things will be better. Hope you find some strength in knowing that life sometimes can be challenging but trust that things will get better. Take care of yourself, xXx
I have been in the hardest season of my life for ten years. Frankly, I’ve seriously doubted my ability to sustain what feels like God’s abandonment much more. I can’t make sense of the unanswered prayers and the prison it feels like I’ve been thrown into. Simply put, God is hurting me and my spirit is exhausted. If someone reads this, please say a prayer for me. Thank you.
Lord, we come before You today with Your child who is in need of a miracle that can only come from You. God, You have not brought Your child all this way in life to live in suffering. Your word in Jeremiah 29:11 promises them a hope and a future, NOT to harm them. Their spirit is weak and they are in desperate need of a refill. Lord I ask that You bless them as You blessed Job. Although You allowed Job to face various trial and tribulations from the devil, You gave him double his sufferings. Allow Your child to step into their blessing season where they will be repaid with 20 years of blessings, miracles, and peace. You said in James 1:3 that our faith will be tested as a way for our faith to grow. Your child’s faith has been tested for 10 years and they still acknowledge that You are God. They still need You. They still are seeking You. So I just pray that You show up in their life this year, in a brand new way. Allow them to sing “glory to God for He has made a way where there was no way!”. Let this year be their year of immeasurably more than they could have asked or imagined (Ephesians 3:20). Whatever is on their hearts, allow them to be reminded that You have the final say. No matter what the world may tell them, You are in control of it all. In Luke 1:37 it says “For the word of God will never fail”, God you are not a liar or a promise breaker so show us that You keep Your word for nothing is impossible for You (Luke 18:27). God for any demon or evil spirit working against Your child, we come against them in the Mighty Name of Jesus! No weapon formed against us shall prosper. For we are children of The Most High God who has given us the power to make demons flee. We bind those spirits in the Mighty Name of Jesus and remind them that we already have the victory so there is nothing that can stop us from the love of God. The devil may try but he won’t win! Instead we say Glory to God in the midst of our pain and suffering for He is still a good God! We Rebuke the devil and his attacks. For it is also written (Matthew 4) that we will soar high on wings like eagles (Isaiah 40:31). Lord we thank You for the testimonies, the opened doors, and the joy that Your child is about to receive. We thank You that they are stepping out of the wilderness and into the promise land. Only You know how much they have suffered Lord and we thank You for keeping and comforting them for these 10 years. Allow them to now comfort others as they walk through their wilderness. Allow them to be a walking testimony of the goodness of God. Send Your angels down to protect and guide them Lord. It is in the Mighty Name of Jesus Christ we pray. Amen ❤️❤️🩹
I have been going through this wilderness for 18months but am at the height of it now so it’s a crisis. Haven’t been to church in months, isolated and just going through the motions Thanks for sharing your journey ladies
Thanks for sharing with such vulnerability, the Magnify Team are praying for you to find a healthy and wholesome community to encourage you and uplift you 🤍🙏
I'm in place of hurt and brokenness. I feel like He loves other people but hurts me for His amusement. I'm broken and I've decided to let him be. I am suicidal and tired. If He can just take me off this earth, i will definitely be much better. This life of constant pain and battle is too much for me. I can't carry on anymore. It's only a matter of time 💔
This morning I went for a jog. Im going through a break up and I was abused by my father as a child. I broke down during the jog , I think I had a mini panick attack because my question is why did God not stop the abuse from my father. Im suffering from alot of rejection and low self esteem as an adult. Where was he? Where is he now? How do I heal? How do I trust him. He did not scratch me. He bruised me. He tore me apart.

Mary's story was so touching i pray God heals her heart completely and strengthen her in every aspect in Jesus name Amen!
Amen! thank you so much!
Amen.
We need to have more of these conversations. Thank you, Magnify 👌🏾
We're excited to have more of these authentic conversations! ❤
I feel so normal now. I thought I was the only one that was torn between faith and the things that are happening around me. I can relate to Mary stories. 🙏🏾🙏🏾🙏🏾
Great conversation! I really love the vision of this channel. Thumbs up to you all
❤❤❤
Emotions are fleeting. The truth isn't subject to changing. Facts are. Wow!! That hit me. Thanks
🔥🔥🔥
This was very touching, didn’t realise how much I needed this. Thank you 🥰
We're so honoured to hear that ❤
This is so timely. Went through a similar experience myself and it’s so refreshing to know that others have been through it. Thank you for sharing
When I tell you I LOVE this podcast
I think my favourite moments in life i when I’m able to learn and be uplifted by women 💫
I pray God continues to heal Mary's heart and her journey and faith goes from strength to strength. Her story really moved me and she really provided some great words for those dealing with grief.

amazing content! cant wait for more

This was wonderful

His love is unconditional. May you be healed, and your faith in God be restored. The sun will shine again.
This morning I went for a jog. Im going through a break up and I was abused by my father as a child. I broke down during the jog , I think I had a mini panick attack because my question is why did God not stop the abuse from my father. Im suffering from alot of rejection and low self esteem as an adult. Where was he? Where is he now? How do I heal? How do I trust him. He did not scratch me. He bruised me. He tore me apart.
HE will come through, its gonna be alright
How are you today?
It’s ok to have these questions. I have them too.
God will definitely keep upholding you every phase of your life
