Lord give me strength to overcome every battle I face as a single mom raising two sons with special needs because Lord I’m struggling to support them financially please Lord give me courage and faith as I struggle to provide for my children please give me a sound mind to keep faith and believe and trust in you.

I have never related to a KZbinr like this before. As a recovering people's pleaser I am so happy I came across this podcast. Literally everything u just said here. God is so good, thank you for saying "Yes" Sis Bonge😭❤

[@RobinS-se1il]

The most difficult thing in this world is understanding that you are not first in your own life. God is. God’s feelings are first before your own. Jesus came here because he loved God first and cared about him first. You are last in your own life. God and Jesus first, your neighbor 2nd, and you last. Once you understand that this is how God is everything will make more sense. - I say you are blessed because I can see God through you. Which is the most invaluable thing in this world- ❤❤❤❤

[@charmainencube2005]

You are soooo rare, Bonge. So so rare.🥹♥️🤌May God protect you and sustain you IJMN.❤❤💯

[@Luluue4t]

Hello, Bonge. I wanted to take a moment to express how much I admire you as a Christian and fitness coach on social media. Your authenticity and dedication to your faith are truly inspiring. I love how you seamlessly integrate your beliefs into your daily life, showcasing that faith and fitness can go hand in hand. When I learned that you were born in the same country and city as I am, it made me feel even more connected to you. It’s so inspiring to see someone from my background making such a positive impact. Your journey motivates me to pursue my own goals with the same passion and commitment you demonstrate. Keep up the fantastic work!

[@anittaduma3664]

Girls Gone bible felt exactly like you when they started their podcast but look what God did to them, the strength you have❤️❤️🫶🏽🫶🏽 we love youuu

[@fitbylena]

Hi Bonge. Why don’t you create 2 separate channels? Start a Christian motivation channel and then upload your daily spiritual videos there. You don’t want to mess up the algorithm on this channel because you have bills to pay! Let this channel be fully about fitness. Don’t feel any guilt. God is obviously the only who touched the algorithm for you to go viral for fitness. You moved to a different country. If this channel is how you make most of your money, please don’t mess up the algorithm. We have to also know how to be business minded and spiritual. Do fitness content only. Every time people don’t click on your videos, eventually your views are going to tank because the algorithm will think your videos don’t serve your audience. ❤

[@AmukelaniKhosa-e5g]

Your voice heals me , I really appreciate your efforts and always sharing with us❤

[@sushicat3229]

I’m so thankful that you making this type of content not only it gives hope to others and me about faith❤️

[@khannyi_nkosi]

[@toekie_toeks]

The way I relate to Bonge's people-pleasing journey, it makes me feel so at peace that if she can conquer it then so can I. It's really messed up my life, wasted a lot of my time. Lately I've been feeling like my way of people-pleasing is not even normal but hearing Bonge speak about how she would almost get panic attack if someone has something negative to say about her, I immediately thought of the verse in Ecc. 1:9 that says "there is nothing new under the sun". Thank you for allowing God to use you Bonge x

[@Yahwehsmouthpiece]

As a uni student also on a gap year in obedience to the Lord, thank you! This message felt like a summary of what he has been teaching me and just in time to return to podcasting. God bless you for your obedience

[@Lifethroughzinhleslense]

So glad this is a video podcast. You’re beautiful Bonge

[@Bongiebn]

Thank you Bonge for sharing your story. Listening to you talk about how you sort God and found him motivates me to be intentional about drawing closer to God. God is truly using you and thank you for your obedience. Every time l listen you, l find myself longing to spend time reading the Word and desiring to truly know God intimitately.

[@sindybridgette5629]

Thank you sis, can’t wait for more episodes. Just received my first ever Holly bible this week; I’m so happy … I’ve never been so excited for anything in my life, I feel like I’ve made it in life.😊

[@basickslash]

[@MsKa004]

Thank you so much sis. I first listened on another platform but wanted to support here & share I am so thankful for you!!!! I thank God for his countless efforts in reminding us, teaching us, and encouraging us especially through others. Thank you, thank you. I knew I wanted to give God my yes, but you have helped me unlock the *how*. Idk it just clicked. Thank you 💕💕💕 Be encouraged you are doing your part in Him!!!!

[@nellykekana3829]

hi Bonge, i’m new here & I LOVE IT!🥺🇿🇦 anything/ anybody that draws me closer to God, encourages me to keep building my relationship with God? i love it. i have been seeing your videos under the recommendations, but today i was lead to clicking on your most recent video and when it finished youtube recommended this one. wow, thank you for your obedience and being God’s vessel. you have no idea how many lives you will touch and inspire. this has moved me, and healed me in ways i cannot explain. i struggle to express thoughts and emotions, and hearing you speak was like i was the one speaking 😭😭.(idk if i’m making senses) , but may God bless your work and continue being his vessel

[@khanyapambo9197]

Thank you for your vulnerability, Bonge. God bless you ❤

[@khannyi_nkosi]

I'm so glad I found you because i literally relate to partially everything that you've said in this video

[@angela-okay3865]

Yoh, hayi. Syabonga, sis wam'. Thank you, for real. ❤

[@asareregina6517]

[@keepupwithsandilek]

I love you sis and you’re powerful please don’t forget that ❤❤❤❤

[@keepupwithsandilek]

58:31 we are definitely staying we are here to stay ❤

[@angela-okay3865]

You know, I've gotten to the point where I hear 'this year...' and I skip. I hear 'your breakthrough...' I've lost the capacity to hear these because God doesn't owe me. I am being taught that even without the breakthrough, and the new whatever, that God is still good. We say this in church around testimony time 'God is good all the time. all the time, God is good.' Even when you feel you have nothing, God is good, just, faithfull. Still big, still deserving of praise and worship. God is still God when you don't get what you want (sometimes, delay IS denial).

[@Tshegomlp]

Need to make time to listen!

[@Pheebs_foodies]

More strength to your elbow sis❤❤

[@maryodindo5616]

Yaaaaaas!!! 💜

[@sheluvzee7824]

I love you so much🤍 keep staying strong

[@charmainencube2005]

Love you Bonge.❤❤❤

[@Nkuli_Skosana]

Thank you Bonge ❤❤

[@user-ie6uw1mj1x]

Bonge ❤ one thing I’ve always wanted to know is how do you discern what God is telling you to do? How do we sift through the voices of our own and others opinions/wants for your life and know which it is that is God telling us to do?

[@thenjiwegumede6797]

Meditating upon the word of God will always keep you close to the voice of God big time. My personal experience though.

[@honoratha]

thank you!

You’re doing amazing boo. 🤍

[@aziziphomhlupheki6164]

Am I the only one who sees some resemblance between Bonge and Jackie Hill Perry?🥲

[@theshineprjct]

I don’t see it. I think Bonge is unique and in her own lane tbh.

[@aziziphomhlupheki6164]

I meant facial resemblance not who she is and what she does.🥲

[@karabomolipa8345]

​@@aziziphomhlupheki6164 you are onto something 😊

[@loyisomkele1506]

Other than them both having a gap, not really. No

[@ZamajobeSithole-fk7pm]

THIS WAS BEATIFUL WE THANK GOD FOR USING YOU SIS❤❤❤❤❤.HE IS INDEED POWERFUL.I started following you today and I think God led me to you, you literally just made me fall in love with Christ again and may he continue using you. also, most of the things you are talking about are things I'm going through now. I finished matric last year and this year I planned to go to varsity, but I got rejected and that is all I wanted from God🥲 the whole year I'm sitting at home begging god to give me the chance. But instead, he just told me to surrender my life and remain Faithfull. I won't lie it not an easy journey, but I know someday I will thank him and glorify his name. I love Jesus there is a lot I want to talk about but yeah....ill just journal the rest but thank you for allowing God to use you❤ 🤣🥲🥲
