TIPS TO GROW YOUR FAITH IN 2020

[@jesusistgott6154]

1. spend more time in prayer 🙏🏼 (her goal is to pray 3 times a day) 2. structured journal time (gratitude, writing down sermons, etc.) 3. write and hang scripture 4. look for God at the end of the day (where did you see/feel God today?) 5. be wiser and kinder with words

[@jackie.mendoza]

Thank you for admitting your toxic habits and not acting like you’re perfect. Your honesty is inspiring and makes us feel safe lol ❤️

[@NoelleSam]

Agreed.

[@adventuresofxyz22]

So true

[@faithbradley4224]

If I haven’t spent time with GOD in the day, I talk to Him as I fall asleep at night. I talk to Him about my dreams, my troubles ( well, I try to ), what I want in a husband, what/who has made me angry and why, etc. I basically talk to Him until I fall asleep 😂 I think it’s good if you fall asleep in your time with Him, it means you feel safe and relaxed. God bless, He loves ou and everyone ❤️

[@angelagyemang7708]

Yh you wake up in a better mood

[@mandisakhoza]

Wow.... I love this

[@lluviar.8616]

I do the same thing, he’s a safe place for all of us🥺😌💓🙏

[@maddiphelps1081]

Please re open those sweatshirts!!! I would love to buy one for my mom and I!!

[@Thisisrenae]

I love how honest and raw you are about your faith struggles. I’m having the same problems. These tips are very practical and sustainable to incorporate into my daily life.

[@HeadFullofDreams394]

I like how you’re not a perfect christian.. very relatable! Being self aware and willing to change bad habits, I guess for me is the best way to start to be a better person.. ❤️ keep growing in faith❤️

[@EPWORTHPRODUCTIONS]

Love the idea of checking in with someone daily to ask where they saw God today. Beautiful!

[@caffeinequeen0388]

I personally have never been good with prayer. I'm 31, so this has been an ongoing issue for as long as I can remember, but I remember being in youth group in church and we were having a prayer group. I got so nervous when it came to my turn, I started crying and I don't even really know why. Everyone thought something was wrong with me and something was going on. Since then, I have built up an anxiety about prayer and whether I'm doing it right. Hearing other people's stories, it helps me realize how the devil works and has worked against me in my life through the years! And hopefully be more prepared the next time he comes. Ephesians 6:10-17 the Armor of God! And 6:18 says Pray at all times in the Spirit with every prayer and request, and stay alert in this with all perseverance and intercession for all the saints. So, Celest, I have this prayer for you. I pray that you are able to to put on the full armor of God so that you can stand against the tactics of the Devil.

[@judymcintire8061]

Great points! We try to take care of ourselves physical & mentally but often starve our spirit. What blessings we forfeit when we don't spend time with Our Savior. He loves it when we spent time with Him, but I think we are all guilty of putting Him on the back burner. I know I'm guilty of this. The enemy loves to cause this division! How he must celebrate that he has succeeded in keeping our eyes & hearts off of Jesus! No more! I am loving my devotional & prayer time! This year I have been more disciplined! I look forward to it everyday! I know this keeps me on the path He wants me to be on! Ty for being so honest! This video was a blessing, very encouraging!❤🕊❤

[@Leopordelectric757]

Yes for sweaters! 🤗 AND please do a makeup video! Such a great makeup look! ☺️

[@CelestRayanneMann]

i have a few make up videos already on my channel but i can do another one soon :)

[@CelestRayanneMann]

NatiEstelle the sweaters are available!

[@NurseKayceeHere]

Your earrings are SO CUTE! Also props to you for being so open and honest. I know that can’t be easy! You’re doing a great job! 🤗

[@SimplyLivingIt]

This is my first time to you channel! Thank you, thank you for this video! I too am on a journey of growing my relationship with God deeper this year... To journal regularly and write down my prayers. To wake up and pray before I even get your of bed. Thank you for this video, so much!!!! 💜💜💜

[@InsightofSamantha]

You’re inspired me to start making faith based videos and I’m so excited

[@lindsayslifecafe7569]

You are not alone on your struggle with prayer! I have started really working on quick prayers through the day. Something a minute or two (or less!) to thank him for something and ask for some strength in your day, etc. I need to work on praying for others when I tell them I will pray for them!

[@danielcoffman1986]

You are doing so amazing and looking great! Over the course of your videos I can tell that he has healed you in so many ways. I love watching the transformation of your thought processes and your honesty. God is working through you, and any day you are not posting videos is a day people aren't exposed to him. You are beautiful inside and out and the closest thing to an angel a human could be. I am sorry you are going through challenges in your life that tests the strength of your faith. Every single person on earth will have to deal with changes and keeping the faith! Your honesty will always guide you back and he will never let go. Love you sister. God Bless Dan

[@elladufff]

you are such an inspiration, i am a young christian and often i find myself falling out of my relationship with god and it is not good but it’s videos like these that pop up in my recommended and remind me to connect with jesus. it’s so nice to see how on fire you are for the lord and i hope i can be like that one day 💗

[@jessyetorneten1589]

Absolutely love the idea of asking someone where you saw God today💜 I would recommend trying to make a habit of praying each time before you get into God’s word, or devotion because I have found almost every time I pray beforehand I get so much more out of what I’m reading or studying. I just always pray for Him to open my heart to what His word says and help me get everything I can out of whatever it is I’m reading/studying. This can lead to hearing Him more clearly and can make you see a verse you’ve read a million times before in a whole new light!

[@jordanjulian8197]

I feel ya sis with the whole prayer situation! I struggle praying for things that I need and things I need help with cause I’m so stubborn and don’t want to ask for help. But like, I need his help badly!

[@asia.m.9046]

Thank you for the transparency 💗 I think reflecting on where you saw God in that particular day is really helpful in order to focus on the things of the spirit. I might just have to add this to my daily routine :)

[@purplepebble3479]

Psalm 34:18 is a much needed verse for me today

[@jesus-lover]

First time watching your video. I love it. I felt the Presence of God in every word you spoke. Blessings from England 💖

[@lexyeppley]

It's so amazing that you posted this video right now because I have been struggling with the same feelings and even thought about reaching out and asking if you'd create a video like this. It just shows that God is working through you even when you feel so far from Him. ♥️ Do you have any tips for calming your mind for prayer?

[@faithbradley4224]

Lexy Eppley maybe deep breaths? As well as asking God. God bless! He loves you and everyone ❤️❤️❤️

[@CelestRayanneMann]

i like to do prayer when im cleaning or showering or even driving. things that keep my body busy but my mind isnt as distracted as when im sitting completely still!

[@MyAbidingJournal]

Hi Celest. My name is Kelseyleigh. I am a newer subscriber to your channel and have been LOVING your content, but I tend to be a shadow subscriber who watches but never comments. I am trying to change that because I want to connect with like-minded women and fellow youtubers, so I just had to comment when I saw your premiere notification for this video because I am literally creating a video on this exact same subject to come out next week! So crazy! Can't wait to hear your tips and thoughts on it. I have been absolutely loving your content and have been very inspired as I start to dive more into christian life videos. I look forward to seeing where our tips and thoughts overlap and diverge :)

[@CelestRayanneMann]

Abiding Kelseyleigh that’s amazing! And I’m so glad you’re branching out this year ♥️

[@batshazcrazy]

This is such a cute message ✨

[@Leticia.Machado97]

Amen girl! Run to God cause He has everything in control! He’s got you

[@MoTheCrown]

Thank you so much for this!! Love your transparency. Let’s do this ☺️

[@fallonredding1776]

This was so helpful. I just recently got back into my faith and you are such an inspiration. Praying for you, Austin, and Bean🥰

[@oliviafaith2689]

Honestly, it makes me feel a little bit better that I’m not the only one struggling with prayer. Sometimes I struggle with both prayer and reading the Bible but I’ll still keep up with my devotionals. I can never keep up with both prayer and bible at the same time and it’s so frustrating! But thank you for this, Celest!! And I would definitely buy your “kindness and coffee” crewneck!!

[@britnyminnix]

Girl please reopen up those sweatshirts!! I would love one!! You have inspired me so much! You are truly a beautiful soul!! God bless you!!

[@CelestRayanneMann]

Britny Windmiller they are for sale right now!

[@berneice8924]

Hi!! My name is Hannah and I am a new Subscriber. I love you and what god is doing thru you

[@mckenziehellum6538]

I've been praying for ways to strengthen my faith for the last couple of weeks and this showed up as I opened KZbin. I relate to everything that you said. Thank you Lord.

[@johnneladderley2474]

Your Kindness and Coffee shirt is fabulous👌🏽. I will start writing out scriptures place them around my room so I can memorize them and use them to fight against the enemy's attacks. Also asking the question "Where did I see God show up" is a great way to be blessings aware of God's and be thankful for his love. Thank you for sharing your Faith goals Celest. I believe you will achieve them all🙏🏽☺️.

[@jaclynlong968]

Thank you so much for being open, I have been going through the exact same struggles not taking the time for quiet times, not praying as often as I should, so yeah its good to see that I am not alone and I will be praying for us both because I definitely wanna make a change, or rather go back to when I first decided to be a Christian and have that same passion for God. But this was a really encouraging vid, so thank you.😊

[@ryanmarsden7659]

God blessed me so much through this video! I love y’all, God bless❤️🙏🏼

[@ofthewayministries]

Thank you for your openness and sincerity. Wonderful reminders on how we can be intentional regarding our faith and walking faithfully. A very pleasant and encouraging experience watching this.

[@ThrivingAnywayTV]

Love your honesty on this!!! Cheering you on, girl! Praying 2020 is the best yet for all of us as we pursue Him! 🙌🏾🙏🏾🙌🏾

[@itsbperalta]

Thank you for making this video, Celest! You've inspired me to work on building my relationship with God this year ♥️ I appreciate your honesty in this video, and I pray that we all improve our faith in 2020!

[@kailashing4061]

your inner light shines through... the power of purity. hope i find a woman like you as my wife someday

[@jessib.lauren8439]

This video is definitely much needed. Thank you for sharing especially your personal struggles because I'm sure we can all relate. I know I can. I've been struggling with personal prayer lately too. I'm not sure why. So let's make 2020 our year to get closer to God! I fear there's not much time left ;)

[@sarahhodges5803]

❤❤❤❤ it all...and the shirt!!!

[@mattie8921]

So excited! I love every one of your videos! They’re so encouraging and uplifting to me. I love how real and applicable you make your videos!

[@bloomingkate1514]

It's a delight to be more aware of when God showed up for you each day ❤️ I'd like to take that into my day too.

[@tarynskelly5676]

Yes! I would love one of those sweatshirts!

[@elizabethwilliams3397]

I for one appreciate your rawness and honesty. It's hard to admit when you're wrong or when you struggle with things but it's good to know that even when someone's life appears to be "perfect" it's really not. Thank you! Prayers for you and your goals this year! I have more goals to be intentional with my Bible reading and sharing my faith 😊

[@aleafaith9620]

I struggle so hard with being kind with my words. ITS MY TONE. Like I say things that don’t sound mean in my head then they come out and I’m like oh no. Thank you for making this video!

[@vanessacuriel9114]

Love your vids. Can’t wait too see this one!!

[@fabbyaguilar248]

I love you such much! I think you’re such an inspiration for everyone to improve their relationship with the lord.💕

[@breannachavez3034]

I really saw God through this and video. Thank you for posting!

[@thisgirlissaved3014]

I just found your account and love all your faith Friday videos! This video definitely inspired me, thank you so much for taking the time to inspire us. If you don’t mind me adding I have an idea you (and your subscribers) might like? It is to keep a prayer journal, this as been very helpful for me. I am 100% the same as you and just get distracted or fall sleep when I am praying and I don’t really pray much either. For this year prayer is a BIG goal I have and so writhing my prayers is really helpful, I don’t get distracted so easily. If you want some inspiration I loved “Lexie Thiery” video about her prayer journal and “Coffee and Bible time” have many faith videos but some prayer journal ones too. ♥️♥️ Maybe you already write your prayer but I thought I would throw this out there. Oh! One more thing, one goal i have put to action is not going on my phone in the morning until I have read some scripture and prayed. It was really hard for me the first couple morning and I was rushing through my Bible time to look at my phone but this morning I did 40min Of Bible and prayer time! Again you might already do this too but jus wanted to mention. Much love. ♥️♥️♥️♥️

[@irissalazar7063]

You are amazing! I'm praying for you! ❤

[@tsotros74]

This is great, god bless you and your husband. Thank you

[@_KendraChristine]

I love the question that you and Austin are asking each other each day! Might have to implement something like that with Nick! Thanks for the video, excited for your faithfridays in 2020!!💕

[@vanessarichter1740]

Thank you for this video! I really feel the same sometimes and it's so good to see that I'm not alone struggling❤ Thank you for your advice and honesty😊

[@lindsayslifecafe7569]

[@tonysturn7769]

I have to say, rite off the bat, your transparency is a blessing. To many fake people out there. keep on keeping.

[@betty.thepennysaver872]

Love the honesty of your goals.

[@meredithmae583]

I loved this video!! your point about speaking more kindly is something that I have been working on this year too. thanks for being such a source of positivity and light in my journey with faith! xoxo

[@heidicruickshank959]

I love that you and your husband are striving to share with eachother where you saw God in your day 💕 #doingthis

[@CelestRayanneMann]

it's going to help us see God in our marriage everyday as well..I am so excited to see how God works through that simple question everyday!

[@sarasmara]

November 2020, the year is almost over and here I am looking for ways to strengthen my faith for 2021. Just great.

[@valentinathewriter887]

Whooosh! I am a culprit of that sense of humor thing. I am so sarcastic and sometimes it's just negative. You have called me out to tame it too. Thank you.

[@xpatzy]

So thankful for your faith videos! 💛

[@nicholewalker8592]

This video helped me!! Thank you so much for this video! I'm glad you have faith video out!!

[@AblazewithCharity]

The Lord has really been teaching me how much He loves me even in the moments that I don't feel or deserve His love, there's nothing I can do to make Him not love me. Also I am trusting God to step in to the unknown this 2020, a topic I am fully covering in my channel @Ablaze with Charity. And Celest I love love your earrings.

Yes to the sweater!!!

[@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, Deuteronomy 31:6 and Psalm 86:15

[@faithbradley4224]
