Hopefully this helps you grow in your relationship with God in 2021! So let us know, how do you plan on seeking Him? We'd love to hear your thoughts! Bless you!

[@sabrinaphaan9672]

Thank you for this video. It was my désire to be closer to God this year and my mum send me a blessing message that I wrote and kept in my planner so I can read it everyday. It encourages me to seek God more and more. So I plan to spend my Day off in the presence of God, like a special rendez-vous. I trust Him to show me how to strengthen our relationship through this year. God bless you🙏🏽

[@larasmith3076]

🦋I read my scriptures each morning & evening

[@bobbihill8604]

Lately whats been weighing on my heart is to stop and listen. "Be Still". I spend so much time talking and writing to God, but I don't ever sit and listen. In my life group we are doing the "How to have a Mary heart in a Martha world" and this touches on sitting and Jesus feet and listening. That's how I plan to grow in God in 2021. And to keep reading and studying the Good News.

[@Arlene_DOTK]

Read the whole Bible this year. Pray often and seek God more for the decisions I need to make in my life.

[@kmhkmh5806]

For the last 3 weeks of 2021, I have been struggling with reading the bible due to choosing other things to do that are not better. So I asked God's forgiveness for this and I am going back to God.

[@mommaof6]

Everyday I wake up I pray to get my day started and I say outloud "Today I choose Jesus" To live more like Christ ( walking in love & truth) and crucify myself. I choose to live for God. I pray, talk & meditate in God throughout my day to keep that communication open & read His Word. Its been life changing! My heavenly Father I love you so so much! Everyday is a new day with its own challenges. My favorite bible versus..Phillipians 4:6 2 Corinthians 12:9 and Psalm 86:15

[@monty_luvsthelord5793]

Yes! I grew closer to God in 2020 when he was all I had in a dark dark place, but I am glad it happened because now I have God back in my life ❤️ This year is the start of him being in control in my life, and doing it his way, not mine anymore. Great video Thank you!

[@RonnieandMel]

Yes!! That is amazing sis! He is the greatest leader, we just have to follow and trust! Bless you

Yall got an editor! No more I phone blanced against a laundry basket! Whoo!! Yall are big time look at Mel putting in that work. I know you help Ronnie. 😝 Yall should do a q&a video of the workouts you both do, books you have read, workout playlists, and some other cool side stuff. My question is if Mel rides the bike too or not so much? So I guess I want to know what gets Mel pumped?

[@solidrock3847]

You are such a nice couple 💑 I always wanted a ministry with my husband. He is a pastor but never wanted to pray with me or share his thoughts on Jesus. Now he wants a divorce and also take the kids. But I trust in a wonderworking God. If somebody wants to pray for me: I am Deborah and my children are Josia 4 and Joana 7. Thanks 😊

[@cherylboyd7081]

I'll pray for you Deborah. I'm sorry you are going through this. I pray your children stay with you, unfortunately the devil tempts us and we can fall for those temptations with all their consequences. No matter what happens stay with God, I know how difficult it is. I've been through the courts with my own daughter and I know how fearful it can make u. And everything I’ve taught you is so that the peace which is in me will be in you and will give you great confidence as you rest in me. For in this unbelieving world you will experience trouble and sorrows, but you must be courageous, for I have conquered the world!” John 16:33 TPT bible.com/bible/1849/jhn.16.33.TPT

[@HealthEri]

May the lord’s be upon your home. May the lord open your husband’s spiritual eye to see the purpose of the marriage from God’s eyes. May the lord opens your husbands eye to see and fight the the enemy’s secrete plan on destroying Godly marriages. Please pray and fight on the spiritual realm. Also, please submit and respect your husband (when it is not sin and necessary). At the end I pray you succeed on your marriage.

[@Itslalajamera]

I’m going to plan a afternoon routine so I can spend time in my word.

[@AreelKarunungan]

Hi thanks for this . Being at home all the time this season because I am working from home since last year when Covid erupted, I needed boundaries for everything. Please pray for me to take my relationship with God through new heights. I personally want Morning time before I start my work but I find it challenging

[@FaithandBibleAsmr]

I love your hearts for God. I heard someone say that since God is a living being, our time with Him is like an appointment on our calendar -like a coffee with a friend since we are working on our relationship with Him- love that. 🥰

[@theloveofjesustransforms8183]

Yes so important to set apart time, but also He‘s 24/7 available and goes wherever His children go ☺️ one thing I want to say in love: maybe you want to consider praying about whether you should do asmr and what God thinks about it? Greetings from Germany 😊

[@FaithandBibleAsmr]

@@theloveofjesustransforms8183 I agree that He is always with us! I think her point was just to make sure that we set aside time for working on our relationship with Him. Btw, I really just do soft-spoken videos that are Bible studies and readings from the Bible so there is really nothing unusual going on there. Many people use that to go to sleep or to help with anxiety. I see it as a mission field and..appreciate your concern.

[@jessefoster2308]

REPENT FOR THE KINGDOM OF GOD IS AT HAND !!!!!!!!

[@aceshighfpv1282]

Bless you guys. Hot tip. When reading the word, speak it out audibly, there is so much power in the spoken word into the atmosphere, effecting both the seen and unseen

[@bernadethjumadas2801]

In this times, I've been engaging things that is not good for myself and to other people and I planned to seek God through gaining the goodness I've lost last year and I will try my very best to stick with Him no matter what the temptations would be.Thank you very much for another encouragement video❤.

[@daniel.w4059]

Going through seasons and just by changing your listening to worship music to messages of the word, and still being able to grow is a huge blessing to hear!

Thanks for the video. Very awesome.

Thank you Ronnie and Mel. I admire you both. May the Lord continue to use you for His purposes.

[@korys7446]

Great to see you both again! You both have grown a KZbin channel, a pod cast now visual, and ministry through teaching and sharing. Remember when people would prophecy to you as to where they saw you were going to be? Praise God for the work He is doing through your lives, it is undeniable and incredible. From the very first time I saw you Ronnie on live with Ryan Ries it is astounding how you have held true to God’s Word and you and Melissa continue to grow. Blessings for you both. Kory

Prayer,worship AND reading your bible. Its not very often i do all 3 on my own time and i plan to change that. Appreciate your video! God Bless!

[@KUYA_AUSTIN]

So good🔥🔥🔥

[@elianafrancomarin]

Wow...Hearing what you said guys is such a blessing that I know God brought to my ears today to give me comforting peace. I am going through big changes... It's like I can see God's Grace over me, over the things I do every day and opening up new paths. Although I see He is making me willing to face challenges that I couldn't face before; today I had to pour out my heart to God and be honest telling Him that somehow I could see this fear of me paying more attention to the projects He has put me in than to Him... Yeah, it could sound like a nonsense, but that was the way I felt. I know He says He will never be away from me and nothing or no one can separate me from His Love... Yeah, but I don't want to get distracted from HIs Presence. That was my fear today. I had to confess this fear to HIm and then I heard your message here. God bless you guys! It's always nice to hear from you!

[@ChasingPossibilities]

Indeed... 2020 may have been not a good year for many but for me I experienced God more and it was one of the best years. He had amazingly caused me to grow more and even caused me to pursue my faith goals. I declare a greater year for me this 2021 and this time Im placing scarier big goals knowing He is a big God. Im claiming more fruits in ministry (whether at work or at church).

[@briankc21]

Loved this video!! This will definitely give me guidance to get closer to the Lord. Love you guy's have a fantastic week and year!! 🙌

Hey Ronnie + Mel!! Just wondering your thoughts on what it would look like cutting out distracting or toxic people out of our lives as christians. I find it tricky to do that in a loving way while also protecting myself emotionally and not compromising my standards or priorities with God.

[@jessiejensen1640]

I definitely agree with Ronnie, last year (2020) was a year of learning for me, and listening to sermons and messages while I was at work, or doing chores around the house, or taking my dog for a walk, REALLY helped me in growing closer to God. I gained a lot of knowledge and confidence in sharing to others about my faith and the Word of God. I have noticed a HUGE transformation within myself just by listening to those teachings and spending time in the Word. It's truly the Living Word ❤️ 🙌🙌 God bless you guys! I always love watching your videos!

[@eaglepride761]

Love you guys so much. Ya'll have helped me get through some dark times this past year. I do have one question though for Ronnie, what bible do you use in all your videos?

[@kagisomokoena209]

This is awesome. I am currently doing the fundamentals of the Bible. I'm starting with the Gospels and when I'm done I'll go to the Torah. That'sbecause the Old testament is based on the first five books (yes I'm planning on reading Leviticus 😂) and the New testament is based on the four Gospels so I want to study the foundations of all teachings, the law and the grace

I hope you all wouldn’t mind creating a meet and greet for those who watch your videos! I think what you two are doing is amazing. I am a new believer. I got baptized Dec 13, 2020! You’re videos have helped me learn and grow as I go! Can’t wait to see the next video! Again thank you for all that you do! Hope all is well and have a great day!

[@RachelMaegrace]

One way that I want to grow in God this year is by not being resentful and bitter about 2020 but instead understanding God had a reason and a purpose for all of it and whether I liked it or not it really grew me through all of its challenges and showed my many areas in my life that I need to work on. I had mountain highs and super valley lows but God was there throughout it all and he came through for me. One thing im trusting and believing for with God this year is getting married and maybe possibly becoming pregnant with a child. I hope and pray those things come to pass but if they don't I know God has a reason and a season for that and I need to trust in his will for my life and be thankful. As difficult as it is to wait sometimes I know that God's timing and plan for my life is better then I could hope or imagine. Somedays are really hard but if my remind myself of his faithfulness it helps get me through. Love you Ronnie and Mel. Also Mel I love your hair!!!
