My life isn't falling apart. I just feel like everything I try is a constant struggle. I'm 26 and ever since I was a child things never went my way, not one even when I tried my hardest. Social skills, School, Work, even had a traumatic birth. I've made my peace with the struggles in my life, and have chosen to just keep moving forward and not focus on the bad. But I would be lying if I didn't say I've felt defeated somedays. Sometimes I ask God "why am I here" or "did I kill someone in a past life??".

@jeremy God gave us scriptures. The bible is full of scriptures. The root word of scripture is script. A script is a written description of how to act or a way to move and think. If we keep doing things the way we want to do things we will continue to struggle. However; when we act and think the way God wants us to, our "struggles" will become minimal. It doesn't mean you wont have obstacles and tests, but life will get easier, when you learn and follow the way God wants us to handle things.

Reality is based on our belief systems stored in the subconscious mind. Limiting beliefs carry over from past lives, the good news we can change the beliefs to more beneficial beliefs, we have to become aware of them and reprogram the mind. We also sign for some of the hardships in our life, God gives his toughest warriors the most difficult path.

@BigMiketheMessenger4 жыл бұрын
@Bucatti, God does try to get your attention by "making your life so horrible". Your decisions are like earthquakes, they have trimmers. Your past choices lead you to whatever situation you are in right now. Life comes with principles to follow. The Bible is rich with principles, but you have to take the time to read it. It has principles to help you protect yourself from being in terrible situations. At some point, I took accountability for my actions and developed self-discipline and patience as I started reading the Bible. Once I gave my attention to God, my whole life changed, from friends to places (it all changed). My talk changed, my mind changed, my environment changed, and my maturity level increased. All that changed because I chose to give God my mind (by reading the Bible and being obedient to God's Word). Wherever your mind goes, your life will follow.

@Lonewolf 7 God looks at the heart and mind of each individual. You have to come to God with a sincere heart and an open mind. God will allow everything you had faith in fail, because God wants to your attention. I was where you are at one point in my life.....as I started focusing my mind on God's Word....I began to come out of depression and poverty. It took a few weeks, but as I became obedient and committed to God's Word....life became easy. The truth is...I was doing things my way (That's what got me in the bad situation), but then I was committed to learning and doing things God's way....I didn't always understand it ( I did things God's way anyway) and life has been getting better ever since. Commit to studying God's Word yourself...no church...no pastor..just have a sincere heart, schedule time to read the Word of God, be obedient, have faith, and the rest will unfold. I guarantee it! I live by it. I'm living proof.

You’re absolutely correct Big Mike. God has taken away my wealth, my hobbies, my sports, my friends and my home but I still have my body,mind, soul and heart. Every time I start to get physically string again, he knocks me back down to humble me. If it weren’t for God I would be lost, in prison or dead. It’s a daily struggle to stay in line with his wishes, but when you fall out of his grace he’ll let you know right away. Another great video Mike. Thank you

I had begin to let alcohol, the desire to have a man and go on many dates to find him, all distract me and today it seemed like I was stripped from EVERYTHING when I was just so happy yesterday.

@ASMRELAX You'll be fine....Jerusalem went into slavery because they compromised obeying God's word and started adopting the ways of other cultures (serving other God's and not living according to God's standards). So God gave them over to the other cultures and allowed the cultures to deal with them according to their standards. Don't compromise God's ways and watch how you build favor, peace, wisdom, and everything else your heart desires. Remember...First seek the Kingdom of Heaven, then all the desires of your heart will be given to you.

I've heard this message, or a variation of this message for years. I have even said similar words in the hopes of providing support for people that need it. My life crumbled around me 20 years ago because I was not living right. I lost everything, including my family. God got my attention, and I started making the necessary changes. It took years for my life to get back on track. Now here I am again staring at the possibility of being homeless. I lost my job six months ago. It's easy to give great advice and deliver a great message when everything is going great, but when you are in the midst of a storm it's hard to see the light. I'm much older now. I love the Lord, but I am losing faith.
@BigMiketheMessenger Жыл бұрын
@Anthaman Somewhere along your journey, you put faith (complete trust) into your job, family, or whatever else you lost along the way. God will allow whatever you have faith in to fall apart. Personally, I have had good jobs that paid well and left, because it took away my time from God. I've had relationships that I eliminated because it was harmful to my relationship with God. The message in the video is about what God will allow to happen when you put things first before God. If you reflect on your past, I'm sure you may find where you began to neglect God (and give your "time" or "life currency" to other things). I have learned to not compromise my time and relationship with God. In other cases, your situation could either be a test or an indication you need to reflect and adjust your priorities in life.

@2 dudes fishin Your faith has to be developed. Faith means "To have total trust"...but God requires you to have total trust in Him. We sometimes "miss the mark", because we have more faith in the outcome than we have faith in God. God only accepts Faith as His form of currency. The more Faith you have in God, the more you will be at peace...knowing that God's hands are bigger than yours (God has the power to position you and no one can override God's authority).

@bmuss06 I don't know, but I'm willing to guess. So, here it goes...When God is 100% your focus, He allows you to go through storms (in your case "family issues") in order to up root the nouns (people, places, or things) that are not compatible for your next season. Trust the process. God knows what you have a hard time letting go of...including relationships with family members and even some businesses. Those things had their season in your life, but those old things will choke out the new growth God had planned for you to gain in the next season. Remember, All things happen for the greater good for those who love God. It will work out how God sees fit. Trust God! He knows what's best for you.

@Victoria Ford God has a Covenant established for those who choose to give themselves to Him. In God's Covenant or contract He has requirements for us to meet. To keep it simple, we have to learn how God wants us to do things. When we do things our way it has a tendency to lead us to hurt, pain, dysfunction, disease, homelessness, poverty, unstable environments, and even death. As I went through life in my early years, I've witnessed all of the above from friends and family being disobedient to God. In the past 13 years I've experienced the favor and blessings from God. It all starts, when you choose to learn, read, and obey God's word. God knows your mind and intentions, so be honest, open, obedient, and humble and God will show you a way out. I'm living proof. I'm not talking about what a pastor said or what I've heard.....I'm telling you what I'm currently witnessing as God continues to heal, develop, and make me whole. The Most High wants your attention! Give Him your focus and things will change before you know it.

@ Direct Dude Yes. Our time, attention, obedience, and willingness to know God is what God is asking from us. When you pay attention to God, He has a way to guide you to peace of mind, a different perspective on life, and growth in all aspects of your life. I can only speak from my experience. I am ignorant to the beliefs of Buddhism....so forgive me of my lack of knowledge about Buddhism. However; I do know my personal relationship with God has enhanced my happiness, mental health, as well as other areas in my life for the better. As you build your personal relationship with God, everything else close you will benefit from your relationship with God. I'm living proof.

@BigMiketheMessenger2 жыл бұрын
@Garrett Martin If you don't pay rent, are you punished or denied access to the living quarters? If you chose a bike as your primary means of transportation, are you held accountable for that choice? When rent goes up, are you forced to pay without an option to move? Everything you have going on in your life are related to the choices you made....God gave you free will to make those choices. They are all results of the way YOU chose. You have to take accountability for your choices instead of blaming God. This is a clear example of what happens when you do things your way. God allows things to happen....He gave you free will....the issue is you don't know God or His ways, so you choose to blame Him for your results. You life will continue to tumble down hill, until you take time to learn who God is and the way He commands us to live. Life does get better when you do things God's way. I'm living proof. You will always have adversity...it conditions you for the next level of maturity. In the adversity, there are lessons we learn and it builds faith knowing that God will take care of it as long as you're obedient. I'm telling you from experience.

@@BigMiketheMessenger if I dont pay rent, I get evicted. I use a bike for transportation due to PTSD from a car accident that cost the life of my best friend. I cannot get a cheaper place where I live. My rent is the cheapest it can be for where I live. But there is no conversation to have with a person of faith when it comes to rationality. You believe in faith, and I dont. I believe in what is tangible. God cannot save me, cuz I dont have a monotheistic perspective of the universe.

@@BigMiketheMessenger also, I have read the Bible, New and Old Testament. Not a fan. Some good stories, some not so good. Are you trying to say I should be like Job? And accept all the evil in my life, for it is God's will to test my faith? What about the story of Ishmael? Or Sodom and Gamorrah, where God sent his wrath onto those who denied him and his teachings? Were they not expressing their free will? I'm not a biblical scholar by any means, but I can read a story and find the premise. When God gets mad, he destroys unless you pledge yourself to him. Seems a lot like King Xerxes from Ancient Greek times. He saw himself as a type of diety who is kind unless you oppose his will. Also, Ancient Sumerian culture and Mesopotamian culture talked about Jesus and God, too. Yahweh. There are so many intellectual holes in the Bible, which is why I can take it at face value, but cannot put my faith into something that has no real form of truth.

@@BigMiketheMessenger but let's be clear, I am not an atheist. I have a polytheistic perspective. Did you know that the Christian God despised polytheism? He would go on to call us heathen, corrupt and morally evil. I've never harmed another human for selfish reasons. I've only accepted and tried to understand those around me. Some of my closer friends are Christian believers. And I have good convos with them. But I dont ask them to change their beliefs because I dont agree with them. I dont ignore their faith, I just dont follow it. I've got nothing against faith, just blind following. I believe things are just the way they are. It's random chaos. I was indoctrinated from birth about Christianity. And when I spoke about how I didnt believe the same faith as my family, they told me I wasn't allowed to participate in Christmas if I didn't believe in Jesus.... "Christmas" was a holiday that celebrated the year in past, and expressed friendship, family, and good will. The Pagans celebrated it before the missionaries of Chrit came to convert them to a new faith. And when the Pagans disagreed, they were harmed and the land they called their home was taken from them. They were whipped, beaten, burned, etc. And if you wanna know more, read and discover.

@Garrett Martin The key point is about accountability and choices. It is not wise to blame "God's will" as the reason rent went up or your bike being your only means of transportation...etc. I'm saying take accountability for your choices instead of blaming God. That is the focus of my comment.

@Matias, to love God is to study thw word of God. The bible gives us a set of principles to apply to our lives. Once you apply them to our life, then life will get better. In addition, as life gets tough, it's designed to make you tougher. Life doesn't get easier so God allows us to go through things to make us stronger.

Jesus Christ, he didnt need to give my fiance stage 4 cancer, my mom heart problems and kill off my grandpa all in the same year just to get my attention. These didn't get me closer to god, it just broke me and took me farther from him, I don't think a good god can do this... he's like a toxic girlfriend who will punish you when you don't pay him enough attention. I wouldn't share this to my friend who lost 4 family members to covid... i don't want her to hear someone telling her she's so distracted with life that god decided to kill off her family.

@Anne of Cleves God doesn't "give" anyone stage 4 cancer nor did he "give" or "kill" in anyone in the situations you wrote. He may have allowed those things to happen....the same way He allowed you to write the comment about this video. Here's a perspective to consider.....be careful what you write out of ignorance and emotions....be diligent in learning solid life principles. People parish due to lack of knowledge and being lead by their emotions (instead of God's principles). Yet people chose to blame God, but not take accountability for their responsibility for their hardships.

@@anneofcleveswithinternet The "place of ignorance " is based on you giving God credit for "giving" people cancer...amongst other things. The devil comes to kill, steal, and destroy....God comes to redeem, heal, and give life. If you know God...then you will know that God's nature is to love and protect. I'm not responding to make you feel better, it's more of a warning to not accuse God of killing, giving heart problems, or cancer to anyone. You provoke curses on your life when you write or speak against God's character. The fact is, things will happen and you will not always have the capacity to understand. However; if you take the time to understand God's Word....then your perspective would change as long as you come to learn who God is with a sincere heart and an open mind. God is graceful, but He doesn't have tolerance for disrespect.

@@tadhgmcdermid7545 You will have tests in life that will look like "bad luck" or "unfortunate circumstances", but in reality there are principles that will protect you. At some point, life experiences will make you question "Why me?!". At that point you will began to look for answers in the place of humility. Or it may be a near death experience, that make you question life and purpose on a more mental and spiritual level.

God seems to be incompetent in regards to giving a message. Add in the mystery, indirect communication, etc., God needs to do a better job at relying messages. As a human being, if we want to give a message to somebody, we do it directly in a coherent manner. We do not rely upon confusion, nor methods that cause dysfunction.
@BigMiketheMessenger4 жыл бұрын
@KevZen2000 In this season of life, you have to take accountability for setting time aside to read the God's Word and listen to God's Word. God is a gentleman, you either choose to commit to learning the Word of God or ignoring it. The choice is yours. You have to commit to giving more effort and focus to the Word of God. On a serious note, God will make it simple to you...if your heart is genuine about studying God's Word and living according to God's Word. It's not God....it's YOUR short comings.
