I spent my entire day listening to your counselling while at work today the funny part is that I am a Muslim by religion & I can relate very well to all the messages passed without any religious barrier. وقوَّك الله بكل ما فيك آمين

[@ThyKingdomCome5]

Also look for Apostle Joshua Selman's messages.

[@ThyKingdomCome5]

They will also help you greatly. Thank you very much.

I was at the stage of frustration and I thought I made a mistake marrying my husband. Thank you, pastor, for saving my marriage

[@lyliesasakwa562]

This is the sermon someone shared with me that led me to Pastor Kingsley and his wife. I listened to this particular one multiple times while single and today, I am listening as a married woman. I’m calling it a revision session 😆

[@nkatekomachumele2261]

Singleness is a gift. Marriage was never designed to make you happy but better

[@russelllevers9513]

I have found the best wife. We are opposites!!!! But we feel deeply in love with each other!!!! To God be the glory.

[@bashiratsosanwo1227]

Hmmmm. I wish I was single... I never had these kinds of teachings and now I'm in for it. God please help me through it all... It's really hard being married.

[@kathleenibeh6309]

See...this is probably one of the REALEST messages I've ever watched. Marriage is not easy, but its definitely not difficult if you understand certain concepts like these. This is a universal, biblically sound teaching that can be applied to any and every couple any and every where! We need more of this, especially for young people preparing for and those just starting out in marriage.

[@aunenuuyoma5353]

Thank u so much Apostle for ur teaching it realy teach some of us that we need to get married one day by the grace of God thanks alot 👏👏

Sooo true how the things that attracted you becomes the things that frustrate you about each other. My husband is very quiet😂 took me a while to get used to this once the ball dropped. I can safely say we have reached the stage of exchange❤️

[@maxineadderley5378]

I have embraced where I am, because the Lord has revealed my husband to me and yes, he is my opposite. And due to that, our family is delayed, however, I have noticed that in the delay, I am being prepared. For example: I am not domesticated. I was a nurse and that’s the only thing I enjoyed. I never learned to cook and would pay people to clean my house etc. He is like pastor, he likes his rice to be steamily hot, I am the opposite. He hates microwave food, I as a single person, cook my chicken and rice in the microwave. I now do not like microwave and is now enjoying cooking and cleaning. I hated cooking so much that the lingering scent of food in the kitchen, made me feel nauseous. I am now the opposite of what I was and is much more like he is in this regard. It amazes me, every day of how much I have evolved into the things that he likes. So like the man of God said, singleness is a blessing. And through the Holy Spirit, if we are sensitive to him, we can grow as we are being prepared for God’s plans for our life.

Yeiyiii Jeso🤦‍♂️🤦‍♂️. Just when I was telling God yesterday In my honest conversation with Him that, "Lord I'm tired of this stage" I'm truly one who advocate for single days to be used fruitfully and I'm truly so grateful that I happened not to marry anytime prior to my 30., but at this time, you do feel that you have enjoyed the "gift ' fully and would love the experience of the next stage ...#Two is better than one -oo🧐 we now desire that #Betterness

Relationship Steps 1. Awareness 2. Acceptance 3. Appreciation 4. Adjustment

[@diplomatdiplomat2800]

What about no 3? Did you forget it? Ok the third is to build a relationship with Jesus. We can't really love others without experiencing unconditional love that is only available in God. Are you aware that Jesus Christ loves you very much and deeply cares about you and you need Him? Please consider inviting Jesus into your life as your Lord and personal Savior ❤️♥️

[@judeenblair9619]

I'm thankful to God,I'm finally embracing my singleness. I'm loving it.

Ladies pastor has never lied if we can just control our desires for ourselves we can embrace the singleness we’re in what in Gods time at this point know your purpose know your passion learn who you are and embrace the time by yourself. Once you give it up it’s no longer your time it becomes our time. Good luck.

[@oritsegee]

Honestly, being single is so much fun and I have embraced it almost too much LOL. I enjoy the solitude and ability to live my life on my own terms. I really enjoy living alone and I'm never bored, I like my routines and I am always looking forward to returning home regardless of how much fun I'm having outside. I want to get married and have kids so I often wonder how I would cope because I love my space and time so much. I already know that marriage would require a major behavioral adjustment from me. May God help me.
