I feel like I have been a magnet for narcissists, psychopaths and sociopaths. Everything I cared about has been ripped away from me. People have turned against me because of lies. The most recent narc, now ex husband, cause me to research deeply to the point where I realized I was raised by narcissists and most relationships I had were with narcissists. My mentally handicapped son has been brainwashed by his father, and he has turned against me too. I thought he never would. I feel like I have lost everything important to me. I keep praying and trying not to give up. This message really spoke to me. What a gifted preacher. I wish the churches in my town had preachers like you. Powerful. Please pray for my family to be restored better than before. - In Jesus' Name

Hi Jeanine, I hope you have been able to access some prayer support and more, via the links included in the reply to your comment. I wonder, maybe reading 2 Corinthians Chapter 1 verses 1-11 may help too? I've been praying for you too. Maybe look at Isaiah 51 v 3 & 12, and Isaiah 54 v 11-17 ❤️

I'm grateful as a Christian survivor of childhood sexual, physical and emotional abuse and ongoing gaslighting, manipulation and control in my family, that my church has enough insight and an elder who is also a child psychologist, to include this in a bible study with a small group as so many Christian churches fail survivors of abuse by compounding hurt and shame

[@hismercyismore845]

Thank you, I had to leave my 33 year abusive marriage . I haven’t found a pastor that agrees with me about my decision. I’ve come to realize that they care about the marriage more than the person. Does God hate divorce, yes but he hates abuse more .

[@amyleyva1471]

I feel like In the same boat, they just wanted to stay in marriage becuase of my kids but pyschologically I was going insane just being hurt over and over again. It is a conflict of interest becuase my dad is the pastor…..

[@hismercyismore845]

So sorry to hear about that, they also don’t understand narcissistic abuse but God has called me to peace as it states in 1 Corinthians 7:15. Also mine was in porn for the whole 35 years and says he is a Christian . That’s a big fat no you’re not . Ephesians 5 states how a husband is suppose to treat their wife . I wish more pastors would understand that God doesn’t want us destroyed .

[@esmemcewan1257]

Praise the Lord for your message, and my heartfelt thanks to you for your ministry. When I met God I had the most beautiful Bible studies and couldn't get enough of His Word. When I met my ex partner in church, we became heavily involved in church leadership together and, on the outside, lived a Christian life. In the beginning everything was wonderful, and I thought all my prayers had been answered. Later, in private, my ex partner was very violent, and many Sabbaths involved bashing, strangling, rape, and endless name calling and verbal abuse, often the night before attending church service. He rarely left bruises in obvious places, and I learned how to cover or explain away the rest. We were such hypocrites. I often feared for my life. The only thing that kept me from committing suicide was continuing to pray that God would lead us both out of our circumstances. When I left him for the final time, after seven years, my horrors with PTSD began. I saw his eyes change from blue to black in my dreams, and had regular flashbacks about being strangled, raped, beaten, spiritually crushed, and controlled. I found church services and Bible study triggering, so had to stop and resort to praying - much of which was hurt and confused prayers. Where was God, my all-powerful and protective Father, when I was being bashed? Why didn't God Almighty intervene in my case? After reading about others who experienced miraculous intervention from God, I felt that for some reason God had cast me aside and forsaken me. But confused, because I know God is love. For a long time I have been praying for God to show me answers and help me understand His love and my confusion. I've had people try to logically explain sin etc, but it doesn't hit the heart in a truly changing way in this case. Your message hit my heart today. For the first time in five years, today I found joy in scripture. Thankyou.

[@KTHussle]

Thank you Pastor Jeremy. I just left a very abusive home, having to leave someone behind there. It was a big system that reached into the church. The Pastor was notified and asked for help, saying he would meet and never did. The family is in the church with his brother giving sermons. The brother was notified 4 months prior. Silence from all, including the Pastor and Brother, assistant Pastor. Thank you for stepping up, for bringing this to the forefront. Your words mean so much now.

Started my healing journey in 2022 (late Dec 2021 to be exact) and still in the process of being restored. May Jesus protect all of us survivors of abuse... I do feel like we need extra protection and care and gentleness. The enemy likes to prey on the most abused and vulnerable via our trauma - and I say this from experience. May Jesus shield us and keep us safe. ❤ P.s. I was beaming by the end of the third story when you were talking about relationships and religious trauma and finding those who speak God’s love and care into our lives. I thought about someone in my life who did, recently.

[@Femiiiiiii]

I was in a three months relationship with someone who emotionally abused, manipulated me, gaslighted me into thinking I was the problem, I was believing him at a point that I was the problem but his red flags were just unavoidable because no matter how gaslighted I was by him, I still had my reservations about him. It was too much for me to deal with emotionally so I had to end things with him. It’s just after I broke up with him I found that I wasn’t the problem after all, he gaslighted me into thinking I was and that he had the typical traits of a narcissist. Made me dig deep in my search of whom a narcissist is because I didn’t know the word has a whole lot of meanings than it means to a normal lay man that hasn’t dated or been with a narcissist. Lo and behold, he’s a walking red flag. I’m glad i left him. Please walk away from anyone who treats you like shit and can’t take responsibility for their bad behaviors.

I don’t want to hurt anyone, I live in a constant nerve pain reaches a ten burning , my brain and heart can’t take it anymore, I serve & love and forgive and apologize… but I’m always told I’m to much , and I pray God Help!!

[@Userkvlnk]

I think it's with demons attached to us through bloodline, through some traumas, soul contracts (I don't remember ever signing). They demons cowardly stick to us, don't wanna leave

[@susandumbill8805]

Can you find mature Christians to pray for you? Are you involved in any way with a church where they are born again, and Spirit filled, and sincerely serious about God and others? If you can find one where they genuinely care and love people, that could help a great deal. Maybe you could also contact Time Of Grace? They pray for people. Demonic forces can still affect us from out past and bloodline, but many of us know Jesus setting us free, in so many different ways. Jesus is infinitely more powerful, and can definitely do this. I pray you find the help you need, and find freedom ❤️

[@clairobics]

It's not luck - it's the enemy - Jesus said 'in this world you will have trouble' - as long as we are still in the world we will have trials and an enemy who wants to destroy the work of God in our lives. However, God is greater and we can rest in him. Your phrase "It doesn't matter how hard I work" reveals you are relying on your own strength - I only say this because I'm also prone to self- sufficiency and had to learn to re-trust and rely on God instead of myself. It's early days in your walk as a Christian, but pray and ask Him to show you how you can Rest in Him and the Holy Spirit, rather than on your own strength - he wants to take your burdens. Have prayed for you x

Thank you, Sir. God is with you. Continue and evil will not be to be continued. You are gifted- God is among us now, we don't even require as much prayer to contact what God thinks like- orders- desires for our salvation in every way including the substitute holy Savior idea God invented and built for us and it is at work keeping us alive on life support until we reach the fully safe destination of the other more protected realm Heaven afterlife. I am never going to quit stopping EVERY deception in the World today in the sector I am working in. We are together United the human real thoughts of God. See you later after we defeat the last shred of this Satan-excrement going throughout the world for its last version this time. We can stay safer after a little while more. God will have a real new order instead of the evil new world order. We will remain the same and therefore figuring out more adaptation to the life only allowed to go righteously as time progresses. Our learning from God is ongoing, but we are already given enough which is the miracle blessing we mainly need and obtained thanks to God the one true God. I'm glad God made the real family of his of what we really are when not deceived, and I will try to help you. I've gotten through some other stuff lately but unable to help you on here because of what was required of a life change temporarily for God to solve the other problem momentarily.

Great video, the challenge with this perspective is that many takes it as an obligation to stay in the marriage because after all Jesus was abused too

[@clairobics]

Jesus never asked anyone to stay in an abusive marriage. Abuse is never okay - the bible just says that Jesus understands what it feels like. God doesnt want you hurt or controlled by anyone. Boundaries are biblical - we are to also love ourselves and establish healthy boundaries with those who may seek to control us. Henry Cloud's 'Boundaries; course is a good one for this and he has many free video resources on Utube.

From personal experience, I will say the woman in the mini van likely did not plan to drive into the ocean, it was a reaction she was probably unaware of in the moment. She was not allowed to perish, there are no accidents in this regard. However, this is not an automatic reoccurring response from the universe. We need to learn gratitude for being saved without asking, and how we can change from that point forward

Hi, thank you. Just thinking, as I just read your initial comment again; it's understandable that you feel like this towards those who have treated you that way. I rather think many of us have felt this way. I know for me, stepping away from abusive people and staying away from them, has helped me to become more calm, and I don't feel so hateful. In fact I don't feel hateful now, just very sad and very upset inside. I've been visiting a different church 19 miles away, it's normal and healthy, and I'm talking things very carefully and gradually. I used to feel I was burdening Jesus by praying the way I was doing, but I'm pretty sure He doesn't mind, because it means I'm still talking to Him, and He can handle it. I really hope things work out for you: Romans 8 v 28: "All things work together for good to those who love God". ❤️❤️❤️

Not having the decency to listen to both sides of the story..... They walk on a filthy dark and dirty road,they cannot see truth,or clearly see what they have become...sad....so sad...my road is now difficult , I do not know this road i have been put on and have to navigate without a map....its is getting lighter , there is a man here, i belive he is a construction worker...he is clearing the way...he carrys a road sign ..he give instructions..... another soul whisperered to me. .....his name is Jesus Christ.....He Will Get Us Down this road..we are safe...he is Power...He is Righteousness...He is Truth and he is Love and Justice.......

I’ve been abused and am being neglected and God hasn’t done anything. I’m thinking he doesn’t fucking exist. There’s no justice

Thank you for your understanding let me just say one thing when nobody believes you because the person that is hurting you is such a great guy and everybody believes it must be your fault and even the very ones that you thought would support you don't even believe you let me just say Our Father in Heaven sees it all and He knows sometimes I feel like that's not enough because we want to be rescued but the truth is he's already rescued you now you need to walk in it I was told to turn the other cheek put my focus on the mark of the High Calling of Christ and not to respond to people that are trying to break me. For me not being physically abused that was hard for me to take if it's only emotional, is this good information for a Christian wife that can't seem to get out of victim mode? It seems like just knowing that God knows the truth sometimes is enough even without an immediate rescue. Sometimes yoy just wants someone to believe you and to stop blaming you. Please let me know if this is the wrong way of thinking and please let me know how we can grow spiritually from covert emotional abuse and neglect

[@ImreadyforJesus]

How can we respond to a covert emotional abuser in a way that sort of spitz in the enemy's face spiritually speaking as we grow in Christ right in front of them how can we sit at that table and dine that God has prepared for us in the presence of those who would harm us? How can we respond as Christians in the momen without giving them the fuel that they need to say see she's crazy and leaving the abused person to feel further abused when everyone believes the abuser?

[@ImreadyforJesus]

I understand that God wants us to know that he hears us and he believes us but how do we respond in the moment?

[@limyungqi6079]

I simply don't believe there's a God who is just.

[@MariaSantana-ul5wd]

God is always just. Draw near to Him and He will draw near to you. We are the ones that are unjust and sinners but Jesus paid the price so that we could be reconciled. Read the Word of God from beginning to end with intention.

Children are abused to death everyday- how is that love? Why?

[@daketh]

That is not love and never will be......

Sin leads to death. This is not the world God intended. The Word of God speaks of our eternal home.

Pastors,men like this fella,by men,are castigated as "new age and a message like this is always mocked as "social issues"and for a major reason.I find NOT ONE scripture in the Bible that that expressly and strictly and EXPLICITLY says in point blank terms a decree against domestic violence such as something like "Let no man of ye be found among thee that raise thy hand against in violence of anger the wife thou hath chosen as mother of thy children lest thou be,in my wrath struck down like one struck down by the thunder bolt this sayeth the Lord thy god that ye mayest learn to fear the Lord o'israel for I am the Lord thy god."JUST ONE verse like this is all it would take to convince me the Bible isn't a chauvinists book.That's all it would take.JUST ONE. Yet I find complete SILENCE on that specific topic amid all other topics that the Bible does discuss AT LENGTH. Ponder THAT!!!!!!!!!!!!

[@NiMarieB]

That made no sense, what were you trying to say?

[@raecurran1212]

You gave no help to the abused , God hates abusers.

[@mariakatsande704]

It is the one behind the abuser that is responsible for all the abuse.If we can see this then we can have sympathy and pray for the abuser.Satan is responsible. He needs to be bound by prayers of the church. This is the full armor. Of God.

[@MariaSantana-ul5wd]

Guard your heart. Only Jesus can break the yoke of codependence on abusers. Be strong and courageous to leave abuse and to not continue the pattern.

God doesnt care

[@evera_]

Oh I can testify that He does. Because of the abuse, 23 years ago I drove my car into a pole at 180km/h, attempting to end my miserable life. But there, when I woke up from the accident, there was Jesus and two angels close to me. I felt an incredible peace. You would see the car you wouldn't believe any one could still be alive. The thing is, I woke up with the car upside down and only half my legs still ...in the trunk (not a hatchback) of the car....meaning, while the car was rolling over, I had miraculously got from the driver's seat to the inside of the trunk...We could not see the car from the road...and almost no one was driving there it was far into the country...but someone saw a little bit of smoke and turned around. It was winter, I could have froze to death. I was deeply injured, and could have died from the injuries. ... It took me 5 years to finally meet Jesus, then He gave me a brand new life. That was 18 years ago and He completely changed my life. I am sorry you are in pain. If you cry out to Him, with a sincere heart, He will reveal Himself to You and heal you.
