I found my true love with God, I’m so happy and content to dedicate my life to him.

4 years ago, at 22 years old i almost took my own life. I was abused as a kid, broken, depressed, anorexic, bulimic, suicidal. I went in & out of psych units like it was a game of Chess. Suicide watch. I was on enough Antidepressants to kill a horse. I hated myself. I wanted out. I wanted the pain to stop. The gaslighting* to end. *(when a psycho makes a sane person question their own sanity, and thus think they themselves are the insane one). I wanted power. I got into witchcraft. I thought it would give me the identity i wanted, to be set apart from people who hurt me. It only made me sicker. Sicker. Thats what it did to me. The doctors said i’d never get well. That i would suffer severe Chronic Manic depression, and never be well, that id be stuck on antidepressants all of my life. I would plot suicide on a daily basis, binging and purging my food as often as opening and closing a door. The pain was too real. People choked me. Assaulted me. Told me i was ugly, i felt worthless. Nothing ever got better. Then my mother died. The (1) & only soul who ever loved /emotionally supported me was removed from the earth. I was stuck living with people who broke me, ruined my identity, thus causing me to hate God. I thought God hated me, that he was just like the ones who tortured me, a family of abusers, who cover up all their actions with the mask of religion. I didnt know that God is on my side. I didnt know that Jesus would Love and Defend me, and fight for me and that He later would heal me, rescue me from Family. The ones who caused me pain. The ones who choked me for wearing a necklace. I moved out after family threatened to throw all my belongings on the front yard, and have me permanently institutionalized in an insane asylum, when they were the ones who caused my mental illness via abuse. They blamed me for the abuse they did to me. To take my life in an insane asylum when they were the ones who made me suicidal. Next morning i spoke with my dead moms parents who let me live with them. I stayed on the antidepressants, prescribed. But they only made me sicker. I got deeper and deeper into witchcraft, thinking it was a solution. But it made me even more suicidal. Self hatred was inescapable. All my cards have fallen down. I have nothing left. But out. I wanted out. I decided i was going to kill myself. I was going to take all my pills. But then Jesus stepped in. I didnt die. I surrendered my life to Jesus to make me well and heal me. The deity i blamed for me being abused wanted to heal me. He Was fighting for me and Loved me all along. He wanted to love me. He wanted to give me His Heart. HE LOVES ME. JESUS. LOVES. ME . Jesus miraculously healed me - i am off all drugs and dont need them and i dont have any mental illnesses. I am totally healed , full of joy. I’m now a born again Christian, in my 20’s who wants the entire world to know that JESUS WANTS TO HEAL YOU HE. LOVES. YOU.

I'm praying to God for the right person, I would love to be married one day.

1. Dreaming and discovering your desires 0:55 2. Dashed hopes and still moving forward 3:51 3. Symbolic desires to specific desires 6:13 4. Messy beginnings and building deep roots 8:23 5. Walking forward by faith 10:18

I just told someone an hour ago that I think GOD is about to send me my wife. Then I see this, wow!

Great video Mark! I can relate! I went through a season of loss, and it contained those ups and downs you described. I was willing to stay single, after suffering that loss, and to glorify God. After transitioning back to singleness and really focusing in on serving Christ and teaching the word, leading worship, pastoring the flock as an assistant pastor, and leading the singles discipleship group, God did help me dream again. Then God brought the BEST possible woman into my life a year and a half ago. We are now on the Lord's path and planning to be married this year!

Few years ago, I admitted to be single and feels like I don't need a man or partner in my life One day I woke up with this feeling I wanted to settle down and started that day, I kept on praying to God In jesus name, let me get married and have peace surrounded to the relationship🙏

As a widower, God has reminded me, that He is bringing me another bride one day. I can hardly wait. I have been through painful refinement and He has done social cleansing for me. It has been trials and tribulations for sure. I have been dreaming a lot about someone. This message pertains to my situation to a T. Thank you for confirmation for my situation.

I feel like I've been going through each of these phases simultaneously more or less for the past 2 years. The best part is that God has remained faithful, not giving up on me, and not allowing me to give up on the dream, even when I failed, wasted time, gave up on her, myself, and even Him.

Amen! Exactly what I'm going through and it's not my time yet and that's perfectly fine because I'm waiting fir GOD's best for me at his perfect timing. All in HIS hands!

One day I'll have my wife that GOD sends me .I'll leave it in his hands and I will be a great husband in JESUS NAME!

I met a woman who was literally my dream woman, (I actually saw her in a dream long before I saw her in real life but she looked exactly the same, down to the dress she had on and her luggage) and I heard God say "This is your wife, this is your wife." She has the most lovely voice I've ever heard and that was literally in my prayer when I told the Lord what I would prefer in a wife. I told the Lord I didn't care if she was tall, skinny, fat, short, but I told Him I wanted to love her and cherish her. I told God I didn't care if she was the hottest just that I would be crazy about her. I told Him I wanted her to fear Him the way I do. I wanted her to be dignified and elegant. My exact words. I ended the prayer with, "if it's not too much, could she have a gorgeous British accent as well?" The woman I heard God tell me was my wife was literally all these things. To the letter. Single-handedly the most beautiful woman I've ever seen. Never seen better posture(dignified) head up high, back straight when walking. She was (elegant) in that she is the best dressed woman I've seen in person so far and I work at a very public place (airport). She has the most beautiful posh British accent I could ever hoped to have heard. Her voice sounds like peace to me. It's like God read my mind quite literally. I met this woman, I heard God tell me "This is your wife" and I felt peace and I felt like I could breathe clearly for the first time in my life. I had wanted a woman just like her since I was a child, the very first type of woman I ever wanted I mind you, and I let her walk away from me because I loved my gf now ex at the time and thought surely God wouldn't want me to betray my ex I loved at that time. The very next day, I found out my ex had cheated on me very early into our relationship (in a very ironically similar position to the one I was in with the woman God said would be my wife). I have never regretted something so much, never been so angry to deny myself my literal dream woman due to misplaced loyalty and a lack of self respect. Excuse the rant, but I want all of you to learn from my experience here. Learn from the mistake I made. But here's the silver lining, I heard God speak to me, audibly, I was so stunned I could barely get any words out. I asked God while she was literally still in front of me,"If you really mean it Lord, have her do something to let me know she'll come back" and she did it. Something only God could know that I would love. She stared at me like she heard God talk to her as well, it wasn't lust, she really wanted me. She became a hope and that helped prosper me in hard times. Realizing God had her for me made me realize my value, how much effort God put into giving me my heart's desire. She hypercharged my life and helped me see my prayers weren't in vain. I thought to myself "If this is who the Lord has for me, let me step it up a bit because she deserves my best. I had lost myself at that time and she still looked at me like I was amazing. I haven't run into her again yet but God is faithful. I'm a fervent Christian and just for the record, this is the second time in my life I've met a woman I prayed for down to the letter, my ex from the story was another. I learned to be careful with my prayers because getting what you asked for can be detrimental. I knew I wasn't ready for her and letting her go is the most selfless(also hardest) act I've done in life so far. I felt like our souls were reaching for each other. My very being misses this stranger and I'm following the voice of the Lord and a dream I didn't tell to anyone but you all here and a few close friends. Despite all this trouble I've never been stronger, more confident, more hopeful and at peace. I didn't even have nice shoes or jewelry when I met her but she looked at me in my eyes, stared as she walked away, this woman is probably wealthy because her dress looked custom made. A real pauper and prince type of duo. Also something I asked God for, because I came from a relatively poor family I wanted to marry a woman from a wealthy family so my kids could see that side of life as well. Please don't give up on your dreams, I promise if you clear your mind and ask God with a sincere and humble heart He will honor you. It may take longer than you think or you may accidently delay the process like I did, but God cannot fail, please remember that guys. I only have her face and her voice to remember her by which is ironic because when I was younger I would lash out at God for want of a wife and say stuff like "I can't even see her face? I can't hear her voice in a dream? Nothing to hope for?" Lol I learned to be very careful when praying. I hope this can help or inspire someone because it's literally almost like a movie how this went down lol. Have hope, maintain peace, may God bless you all.

Dear Father, I’m praying for the wonderful man who will be my godly husband. Please prepare our hearts Lord! Amen! Praise the Lord! 🙏🏻🕊🥰❤️

Iam waiting for the right person, I believe that God will send the right person

Thank you Brother for this video. I want to be married with the woman God has for me to serve and worship. I am single right now, but God has been Blessing me so much and has been working on me. I Pray that The Lord has been doing that to my Kingdom Spouse as well.

Thank you Mark❤ it took years but I finally found and married my true love, he was right under my nose the whole time my high school sweetheart! So many seasons and trails happened between us over the years, and I was listening to your ministry the whole time. So many tears and prayers while listening to your videos. I even bought your books. Finally married at 26 and our baby a year later ❤ thank you mark!

Recently divorced and left devastated. However, he was not saved. I thought he was but later discovered the truth the hard way. I am praying for healing and restoration in my own life so that one day, i can be ready to meet the new man God has for me, if it is his will. Do not be unequally yoked! Make sure he isn't telling you he is a believer just to be with you.

Beautiful to remember God’s constant reminders to believe. Believe we will despite our susceptibility to mood swings. It is far better to endure for God’s perfect timing.🙂😊

Please pray for me too. I want a godly relationship that leads to marriage, there is this guy. Whatever happens, whether the actual relationship happens or not, I want to have an attitude of gratitude and may the Lord Jesus Christ reveal His will ever so clearly to me 🙏🏼❤️

This video came to me at the right time. I've been in a long season of singleness, and I've realized just recently (within the last year) that I have indeed been called to marriage in order to further grow and help in ministry. I believe this long season is almost over for me. Thank you Mark💓

I appreciate this so much, thanks Mark for breaking it down. This is the purpose for our season of singleness. It’s less about avoiding the pain we experience and more about pushing through to the other side while having hope and faith in God! ❤️

I’ve always been treated horrible like abandonment isolation mental abuse psychological abuse physical abuse and abandonment isolation and no matter what those people did to me God keeps giving me a brand new heart to not have anger better you know when I’m like how do I leave this world when I know things that most people don’t know and I don’t know how to live in this world by feeling overwhelmed and pressured by the spirit of evil like I don’t wanna do wrong and I don’t wanna have right and I just need good things and good people around me

Yesterday the devil again was close to break me with leading my eyes to those who found Love . .annoying me with thoughts like " _Look around you ..see_ _with yOUR age this & that!iT's TiME_ "🙄 Yeah it's TIME To STOP since when has a LiAR Listeners?!⚡ > At this point *tHANK* *yOU Brother for just following your call!* *We appreciate you,and we Love you!!* 🙏💐x *Sisters & Brothers* We Are Not Alone GOD is with us . .every step we take! This is what the *Voice of* *Truth* says, you are ..Loved,looked for, you're called,you are planned, wanted, asked for,needed, impotant,cared for, literally worthy enough to diE for, Made & Coverd in Perfect Love✨💕 And on OUR way following _Jesus_ all around the world, we all found us Together in CHRIST! Everyone's working to make this family bigger that's Love!🥺🐑

Oh I’m not single!! I won’t be for long!!

I like the way you show how the messy construction process is needed for a beautiful result. I’ve built and remodeled many houses, so I can relate to this. I also love hiking the hills and being in the outdoors, so I can relate to the beauty and necessity of going through hills, valleys and meadows, as I have been through them physically, spiritually and emotionally. Thanks

Thank you for videos, only discovered this channel hours ago, I was lost in a dark place and mentally breaking down, God helped me even though I was losing faith he guided me to this channel the more videos I watched I could feel overwhelming love, I really believe I was saved today

Glory to God, for all that he has been revealing to me through this time of my life. God is indeed preparing me for the ministry marriage 💑 .

Gave me a true love pls god🙏🌍🌍❤

Making a list of why the person isn't right for me helped me in the past.

When I started noticing God is loved when I found what love is. A girl encouraged me to want better in life she told me she cared about me I thought she was crazy, but every time she would talk it was like light was shining through my dark heart. The first time I saw her it was strange it was this feeling like light was shining through me it was confusing and I didn’t understand what I was feeling. When I was in 9th sometimes during the year I would hear she is the one I ignored it I was going through some dark evil times. All I wanted to do is die I didn’t know where my future was headed I was confused. I knew what I had to do God already knew what I was going through, he was waiting for me to ask. So while still being dark I just felt like she was in trouble like someone with wrong intentions talking to her. I was like well I don’t like her and then I thought about how God used someone in my life to reach me the only way he could. He should me love is real we have to wait. It did come to pass and when I was hearing it and staying in the word when I saw her they were together like God told me. I was amazed and shocked I thought I was going crazy like I was quarantined during the school and all I’m doing is hearing things and discerning the voices. That’s when I knew it was all God. I’m not giving up on her because love is uncomfortable just like walking with the Lord is it’s not easy I’m waiting because I know and trust in God that he doesn’t lie. The crazy thing I started changing after I went back to her and started reading the word and understanding what the Holy Spirit was telling me. I heard it only in the morning when I woke up it was like a time was set and knew when to remind me. I was saying it because like I said I didn’t want her I didn’t care, but it started getting crazy when the other voices said kill your self, it would never happen, and way out of my league. I knew it was God the first time I heard it because it was stern, but small and still. Voice was beautiful can’t comprehend I just knew it was God. The voice that was still said, “she’s the one.. go back to her.” Love ain’t easy I told her my intentions she asked me how do I know these things. She’s Jehovah witness the don’t believe in the holy trinity like baptist do. I had a vision when I was feeling she was in trouble I was giving her family Bible’s, but she was by my side spreading the word to them. It could have been me, but I didn’t know she was Jehovah I just knew she didn’t celebrate Christmas. Never asked her what she believed in. I hope this encourages someone. I’m an Ephesians 5 man of God. The first time I realized the Bible is alive is when I was trying to find a different verse and I was mad I didn’t remember it, I didn’t even know that book was in the Bible I saw Ephesians 5:8 written on a white piece of paper in my head I finally turned to it and I was mind blown.

🙏🙏🙏 still trusting God

This resonates with me in every way. I trust God that He is bringing His will for my life to fruition. I pray for clarity, patience, & wisdom along the way!

This is good. I relate to all 5. Praying my husband finds me soon 🙏🏾❤️

Thank you Mark for all you do for God’s people. These videos have been instrumental in helping me truly understand and apply God’s word to my present situation. There’s literally a video for every stage of relationships and the resources you provide are a blessing indeed. I’m grateful for your unique ministry. You will in no wise lose your reward.

I hope to meet God’s handpicked man for my life in His time..

Wow this was so timely. Just a few minutes before this video was posted, I was busy daydreaming about getting engaged lol. God bless you Mark!

Although my English is not good enough. I got married in January, but my wife suddenly said she didn't feel the opposite sex, so we broke up in February. Although we think that God sent us and we got married. I keep praying because I don't know God's plan. I hope we can get together and fix our marriage. 🙏🏻 having really hard time but still praying and having a hope

Mark I swear this was so timely. Recently I’ve been sensing a desire to pray more for a spouse. And then this morning on the way to work I was talking to God about my frustration over still missing my ex and some of the things I experienced with her (even though I know she’s not the one God has for me). Sure enough you touch upon that. I think God is hard at work behind the scenes and I’m moving from having chronic disappointment to now restored hope

Thank you, Marc, always much light! 🙏🏻👍🏻

I trust in the lord he will bless me with the right person to marry me at the right time.blessed be thy name

Literally just prayed “ Lord bring me someone that restored my faith in love again because YOU ARE LOVE, I EMBODY LOVE , IM OPEN TO RECEIVE LOVE “ #4 brought the point home !!! You always drop the most precious gems backed up w/ scriptures 😩👏🏾🙌🏾** Thank you Mark💙

This is a good message. ✝️👍🏻

I love this message.. thank you 💜🙏

Thanks Mark this was a blessing God bless you

Wow!!!! God increase you

Thank you for sharing your thoughts 🙏

I liked the comparison between building a house and building a relationship. Jesus gave us the key to a sound house, a strong foundation. A good relationship starts with a strong foundation, our relationship with God through Christ. And, like building a house, there are details that you seldom consider, plumbing, wiring, and the strength of the floors, walls, and roof. Running ahead of the building process would ruin the house and will ruin even a good relationship.

Amen! 🙏 thank you Mark! Such important and profound points to be aware of! Love the comparison of life with that beautiful house 🏡❤️

I'm so happy for your channels growth! Glory to Jesus

This hit the spot.🙌

all the way from uganda it’s 04:01am i was about to sleep and you came up...bless God for you!❤️ needed the reassurance thank you!

Waiting for God's perfect timing and for the right man for me.🙏🙏🙏🙏

I felt #3 so much 😭😂! I feel that conviction deeply! This video is so good and on point for me.

Thank you for clarifying the "guarding your heart" verse, and that love DOES require taking risks, that concept always confused me! Overall, your content has been very insightful and helpful to me! Thanks

Thanks once again Mark

Straight wisdom from God! I truly like how you explained the house and applied it to a relationship.

Thank you for explaining it so clearly, i never thought about it this way. God bless you.😊❤️

Psalms 23:4🙏🏽

Wow, Mark if true love is up there at the top and I am down in the valley, that climb looks to be unreachable...

RISK AND NOT CLARITY. PRAY FOR WISDOM AND MATURITY, AND PREPARATION. 👍

Amen, God bless you

I think i met the right one but im going to keep praying and guarding my heart

When you're part of #TCNation #HereIsHoly

I've been dreaming and have that first one. God has a plan for all of us and that special someone that will come into your life will come at the right time. Everything takes time. Which is why I love this saying and is true " ONE DAY AT A TIME. My fav saying. God is in our arms! Amen! 🙏🙏❤

Thanks, Mark. You said some great things here which were unexpected from the video title. Points 3 & 4 were really good, and I especially loved the inclusion of both natural 🌳 and architectural 🏠 analogies because they both demonstrate the work of God and the work of man still needing foundations. It was great to hear you say, “When you’ve both passed away and are in Heaven...”. That’s our hope; a marriage that still glorifies God through a great testimony and faithful descendants of God when we’re no longer here. Nothing stirs my heart and soul more than that desire. 🙏🏾✝️💒🤵🏽👰🏾 God bless you!

God bless you Mark. I love Jesus Christ more than anything

Praise God!
