"Some people want Isaac so bad that they settle for Ishmael!" MY GOD!!!!!!!

Marrying the right person as a Christian is very important. If you marry the Right person, you have a Prayer partner for life. But if you marry the Wrong person, you have a prayer Project or Prayer point for life. 🤣🫣🙄👀🤐

If I'm blessed enough to get married again it has to be whoever God tells me to marry I'll never marry whoever I want again it was terrible.

"Just because it's working, it doesn't mean it's God's work." 👌

I felt so sorry for that girl

I laughed 🤣🤣🤣 It was heartbreaking for this lady, but she was very unwise. I blindly followed a prophecy and ended up being used emotionally and financially, because the person chose his own ways. I have learned to not exalt any personal prophecy above my relationship with Jesus ☺

What I learned from the story is not to overreact. I learned to not be led by your feelings and emotions. I learned we must walk in the Spirit. Charity and her bride's maid were not prepared spiritually. They were like the five foolish virgins They were not ready. Proverbs 2:11 says discretion will preserve you and understanding will keep you. In the book of Esther, Hadassah spent a year preparing to be presented before the King. She listened to the King's eunuch, Hegai, who she found favor with and who advised her how to prepare herself to be presented to the King. Hegai, the eunuch, symbolizes the Holy Spirit. Hadassah died to self and adorned herself only the way she was advised by Hegai and she was the one chosen to be the Queen. God by the Holy Spirit will teach us and advise us in the ways we shall go. The Holy Spirit guides us. He is our helper and teacher.

Me too

I had a similar situation but it did not progress to marraige. I was distraught at the time but looking back it was a huge blessing and I decided to chose a more intimate walk with the Lord to discover his purpose for my life in order to allow me to chose the right person for me. Through my walk with the Lord, I have come to an understanding that God gives us choices and will never violate our free will. Unfortunately I have been around people who were emphatic that they were suppose to marry a person and God said yes- unfortunately the marraige crashed. I believe God wants us to grow to a place where we become so rooted in him that we understand the purpose he created us for. It is from that place of knowing who we truly are and our role in this world that we chose a mate. I also believe that choosing a mate should be a combination of guidance from God and the use of our common sense. Just because a person is a christian does not mean they hold the same values as we do nor does it mean we believe the same things. It is amazing to see how two Christians have complete polar opposite views and different beliefs. I made a pact with the Father to give me wisdom to choose. I knew my future spouse would need to uphold values that were important to me and values that were none negotiable. I knew God wouldn’t chose a spouse for me but that he would give me the wisdom to make the right choice. Deep down I knew that my choice of a partner would be based on my core values and how both our values aligned. I figured that if God does not chose salvation for us he will not choose a spouse for me. When I met my husband I had 100 list of questions ready for him. I did not interrogate him but every opportunity we had to talk those questions were asked. I asked God to show me everything about his personality that I needed to see in order to make a decision. If there was one thing on my non negotiable list is was a swift no. God showed himself faithful. He showed me areas of my husband’s personality that i needed to see in him before making a decison. All I kept asking God was to guide me, show me his heart and give me wisdom. For some strange reason, I never asked God for confirmation if I should marry him or ask for his green light because I didn’t want a situation where I would say God said xyz and it didn’t work out. I wanted to be responsible for choosing using the wisdom and common sense God gave me! It’s been 20yrs and 3 children later. I am deeply, madly in love with my husband. He is the most amazing human being that I have ever met, my best friend and I thank God everyday for giving me the wisdom to chose him. Everyone has a unique story - I just have never been the person who believes God chooses a spouse for his children. We are both born again believers deeply in love with Jesus! I remember telling the Lord that I would like to marry someone who we can sit down and just talk about Jesus! I didn’t hear God say “marry him he is your husband” Instead it was a blessing to see how our values aligned, and our non negotiables were respected. I have always believed God gives his children wisdom to choose. Our marraige is so easy which was worrying for me 5 years into our marraige because I was told marraige is hard. Because we are on the same page 90% of the time, our 10% differences has made us stronger. Of course we have our misunderstanding and disagreements like every married couple, however our desire to see each other become better individually and as a couple has strengthened our marraige. Also we were determined from day 1 of our marraige to not give satan access into our marriage through peoples interferences etc- we go to the Lord for absolutely everything. I remember as a single woman the Lord whispered to me that my marraige will be sweet. I can honestly say it is. Sadly some of my friends who believed God told them to marry a particular person are either divorced or terribly unhappy in their marriage. I honestly didn’t want to put the responsibility on God alone to choose a mate for me. I wanted his guidance and wisdom and a dose of the common sense he gave me to help me chose. By the grace of God this November will be 21yrs doing life with an amazing man. He has booked a surprise destination to mark our wedding anniversary. I am so humbled by God’s goodness and faithfulness.!

Woah just woah!!I have this exact feelings but I couldn’t describe it so well like you do at the part of choosing the man and non negotiable stuff. I felt like my understanding of things and desires when it comes to marriage comes from a different dimension that I couldn’t explain but you just put it for me. Thank you for the wisdom in all that,i really needed to hear that asking God to show your potential partner how he is like personally. Got a revelation out of your testimony. God bless you sister

Wow..

Prophecy from the Lord. We must know how to act in wisdom. Everything must be for God's honor and glory. She freaked him out. Almost everone in the church knew. Then when he went to see you she and her bridesmaids were giggling, and then blurting out the prophecy was so unwise. She might have turned him off and away. We must use wisdom and take our time and chose our words in communication. An eager woman at such early stage can be a turn off. Men pursue. God opened the door but she was too obsessed with getting a husband that she didn't consider the marriage. That message preached was for her too. God opened the door for what she desired then she ruined it Hope after all that she learned a valuable lesson, found peace and most importantly found her way back to the Lord.

So Charity opened her mouth too soon, and wasn't prepared for Steve, and basically ruined the divine appointment. She scared him off by telling what you prophesied to her instead of playing it off, and probably looked like a crazy woman to him. So sad😔

I think it’s important to note that it seems like Charity made receiving a husband an idol in her life. God will always prove to us that we should rely on and worship Him alone! Something similar happened to me and when God removed the man, I realized how I had been putting this man first in my life all along. I can only thank God now for the experience - it opened my eyes in many ways, and made my walk with God SO much stronger!

I know a man who was prophesied to about his wife. They were both prophesied to together. Thats how they met. They were together for years. He kept coming up with reasins why it wasnt the right time. Not because of their relationship. Other things. I told him he is taking too long. Then she met someone from her past. My friend pursued her even though she broke up with him. I counselled him and prayed with him. He is still single.

I LOVE this testimony so much. Moral of the story: MAN was her idol not God. Charity first made Daniel her idol, Then made Tobi her idol by taking his prophecy without praying for her own revelation and instructions from the Lord then made Steve her idol. The proof of this is that as soon as the prophecy didn't go the way she planned she fell out of love with God. She forgot she has a Will and Steve has a Will and we can't change anyone's will in life. It was never about what God wanted. Man looks at the appearance and God looks at the heart and ONLY judges the heart of an individual. The devil can deceive your desires to follow your idea than God's will. It is a dangerous place when we play God and speak into fruition what we desire and want instead of humbly Submitting our desires and wants to God and saying to him "Yes this is my desire and wants but NOT MY WILL YOUR WILL BE DONE". She did it with a husband and many do it with their job, their image, their money, etc. All believers including myself have done this in whatever desire they have wanted the most at one point in life so there is no judgement here there is only a lesson. Seek Ye first the kingdom of God AND his righteousness and all these things shall be added onto you. Since God is our creator God knows our wants, needs and desires but he Also knows what's best for us and what will bring about his glory through us. Let's trust him as much as possible so that Gods righteousness, not our own will be fulfilled here on Earth and will bring others closer to him. In Jesus name AMEN 🙏

My heart cries out for this young lady. I can't imagine the grief and heartache she must have went thru to know that all her years of waiting and the ultimate fulfillment from the Lord was completely dismantled because of this error. Sometimes our choices are very costly. I know first hand.. 😔 I pray her heart is restored to the Lord and she would look to Him, knowing ultimately HE is her Husband and no one on this earth could ever compare. I pray fear of the Lord over the body, submission, and humility. And that our hope would be in Christ alone. 🙏🏻

Most of your videos scare the hell out of me ...but ...you made me laugh today ,pls add more humor your comedian. But some ladies succeeded by just walking up to the guy they want and say, " God told me to marry you.""" And men agree o

Also, I think what we can gain from this is to have the Lord first in our hearts and not to let anything, even His blessings steal our affections from Him. It sounds like she may have been too overly focused on having a husband, maybe even idolizing it, to the point her heart was not prepared in the Lord. Many young people think marriage will complete them, that they are waiting for their 'other half', but you should be complete in Christ alone. Marriage isn't for you- but for you to manifest Christ to another person. It is a reflection of the heavenly union between Christ and His bride.

Sometimes people go chasing signs and wonders when it’s what follows us!

Many women tend to "idolize" marriage. The best and important relationship a follower of Jesus Christ can have, is an individual and intimate relationship with the Godhead. If you don't know Who the Godhead is, you have no clue what I'm talking about. I was one of those who idolized marriage. I tried to 'help' God because He was taking too long. I went through the fire and furnace of affliction for my actions. I had to repent, forgive and get out of God's way. God did present me to 2 men of God as a suitable mate. The enemy, myself and them caused it to not manifest. Sisters, please do and be who God has called you to be. If you think someone else's husband is your husband, you're in deception and error. I pray that you have the oil, Grace and patience to wait on God. Blessings, love, joy and peace to everyone! ❤️🤗🙏

Well , I don't blame the evangelist, It would have creeped me out too, It's not just about receiving a prophecy but also wisdom as to how to go about it.Although there was a word I don't think Charity was ready to receive that word,because now she was focusing more on the man than preparing for the marriage and the ministry that came along with the marriage.And it made matters worse that everyone knew about it .Personally I don't think any prophet or man of God should tell someone who their future partner is,it has brought a lot of confusion in the body of Christ.They can guide you and confirm your personal convictions.

Oh my God, she approached him😬😬😬🥶🥶

Im so so so sorry for her. Iy must have been completely devastating. Whenever the prophecy or dream or a eord is given or receives about marriages, I think a person should point out that 1) dont tell that to the person when you meet him/her...let her develop the feelings himself/herself. 2) they still may refuse Gods will/desire or invitation to marry you. Thise 2 advice would have helped her a lot to process the prophecy and possibly they would have been together now.

Oh wow...I was at 23:01 and the video cut off...please do the part 2 on explaining things that may shock us....amen! Thank you Prophet Tomi,

My request as well

😂😂😂I absolutely loved this! Brilliant! ❤️😊

I PRAISE JESUS! Even as I’m struggling providing for my children. I will keep faith. I get harassed and called names simply for sharing my testimony and asking for prayers. But prayers are all I WANT. I fell on hard times because I was fired from my job as a social worker at Forsyth Hospital because I declined the vaccine. I was denied my medical/religious exemption. I declined because of my pre existing health condition lupus and heart disease. I wish I could go back to the hospital but unfortunately the mandate is still in place all hospitals workers must be vaccinated against covid 19 for hospitals that participate in Medicare and Medicaid. I’m waitressing AND I’m SO THANKFUL, but I’m not making nearly as much as I use too. My husband died years ago. I’m all alone, As a single mother with two autistic children things are so overwhelming on me because my boys require a lot from me. Every month is a struggle to pay bills and to put food on the table. BUT our Heavenly Father gives me courage to not give up because I want to. I’m so discouraged but even as I face homelessness almost every month and even as I get put down and mocked because of my situation and choice. I will keep faith in God! Please pray for me and my boys. God bless. Merry Christmas.

Make sure your heart is clear of anything displeasing to God - repent of sins. Then fast and bring your situation before God. During your fast, find a reasonable way to give something to the poor asap, and do it! Ideas: fix a plate of your dinner for a homeless person near you and give it to them, donate something worth having to a place that helps the poor or directly to someone that you know is in need... Activate that law of sowing and reaping.

Oh Lord!!!! What a testimony! God is amazing 🔥🔥🔥❤️

THANK YOU! PROPHET TOMI.

Love it; great story! Great lesson!

Thanks for sharing.

Brilliant word 👏🏻 prophetic overshare… or prophetic diarrhoea. Knowing what, when and how to share prophetic revelation is a process of maturing in the gifting. Good to hear others journey of maturity in their gifting. We need to hear this to know we’re not alone in starting out immaturely. Burned by prophetic overshare 🙋🏼‍♀️ Seeking to grow in wisdom and maturity 🙋🏼‍♀️ Oh so thankful for the grace of God that covers our weaknesses and leads us onto maturity 🙌🏻

Thanks God for this message. Surely it is for me that this month will found me pregnant. Thanks Lord Jesus

Thank you sir !

Thank you sir for sharing.

I am blessed by the lesson you have shared sir. I believe this lesson is important for all prophetic declarations, it's important to be prepared, that's the place of wisdom. God help me🙏🙏

Wow what a Revelation 🙏🏽

So good Prophet 😊

I enjoyed the story good teaching

Wonderful word prophet, thanks for sharing

That is so powerful some people would rather have Ishmael rather than Issac.

This story was a great help to me when I heard you share it years ago!

No Way!!! I absolutely loved this story and lesson! Praise Be to The Almighty God!!!! 👏🤲🕊❤️

Wisdom lesson right there... bridling the tongue will get you far!

THANK YOU PROPHET TOMI, THIS STORY IS VERY TIMELY, NEEDED AND APPRECIATED. THANK YOU SIR

You are so right, the spirit man knoweth when something is being delayed.

Thank you for sharing: it is so refreshing to see a prophet laugh at himself! This experience will be a conversation piece with my sisters, for sure!

Sooo good 🔥

Very insightful and an eye opener when it comes to prophecies and interpretations.

Prophet Tomi, lessons for prophets. I gleaned so much. Thank you.

Thank you for your testimony Apostle!

Great story Prophet T

Wow!!! Tomi, i am blessed listening to you. Thank you Jesus!!! Tomi, thank God for his mercy and for being God. I have been caught in similar situation and sometime you'll just keep asking but thank God for God. God is Great!!!

Thank you for sharing 😁 Hilarious anecdote with serious undertone.

Learnt a lot from this story. Now I know !

This is so good and transparent thank-you. Made me laugh cause I worked in the church for over 14 years saw everything lol, so good, so relatable. Lol you are so funny and real thank-you!

Such a great story!

Thank you for sharing. The Lord speaks to me through dreams and visions and to be honest i don't have anyone to kind of direct me.This was good.

This makes so much sense! He will become my Lord literally, my second Lord. I receive this wisdom by faith. 🙌🏽🌸🙏🏽

The holy spirit led me to you. You are hilarious 😂 and so humble and honest. God bless you , I'm so grateful he led me to you.......

I love this woman’s faith - we should all have faith like that for Jesus so we’re prepared when he comes. What a great illustration of not occupying the time.

Very insightful

This is POWERFUL. Just shared a message on Wednesday a few hours ago and this fits right with it. The Holy Ghost knows how to confirm some things in a major way. Wow.

Thanks SOOOOOOOOOOOOOO much for this testimony, brother Tomi... It'll save us all out there who get words like this, from ruining things out there.... Thank you:)

So many lessons to learn here. I also really enjoyed the story telling. Thank you Prophet Tomi

So interesting thanks for sharing 😀😀😀

Thanks for sharing

I'm so cautious giving a time frame when I prophesy. There's been a few times that I have, thank God the words came to pass in that time frame. But I've missed words at other times. We see in part and know in part. Love this video. Thank you for your honesty!!

Wow I learnt more than enough in this story. God bless you❤

I love prophet Tomi! He is so funny. Best story teller.

What a message I learn from it plus I laugh laugh this Christmas morning at home 🏡 God bless at Apostle Tomi

Please pray for me. I'm feeling discouraged.

Down in years to come who knows what will become of the Steve marriage, God will always figure out how to bring his word. That was powerful too you saying God sometimes bring his word to pass but one can miss it because one is not yet prepared. We bless the Lord for fulfilling his word.

wow wisdom so good

Praise God... Glory be to God...

Thank you for this recognizable message. I did this once too. I was sweating! Now i am very carefully when i hear or see somthing from the Lord. I have not laughed like this in a long time. Thank you very much😆

I like you Tomi, your real, funny 😁 and this story makes me feel way less weird 😄

😂😂😂😂This was great. Thank you😂😂😂😂

Sir you have given me a crack on my ribs ....I've laughed like a mad person,this is truly hilarious how we miss every single detail when it comes to prophecy... charity should have waited on her knees and not being too anxious about the whole Daniel , Steve issue anywho may the lord perfect all that concerns charity for the fulfillment of God's Mercy and Glory upon her life.

You made me laugh so hard 🤣 😂 😆 on this 🤣 😂 😆 😄 😅 😀 🤣 😂 one

So touching .God is great and unquestionable.she was too fast

Lol this a good testimony!!!😅😍😅🙏🏾🙌🏾🎉🎉🎉 it was perfect!! God shows off!!!

Sooo awesome!

I love this honesty. God always gives us choices, small and big ones. I do believe God destinés people to come into your life just like friends and family as well as a spouse. But in the end it is up to us how we handle the relationship and what relationships we choose to invest in. Marriage is sweet but there will always be a sacrifice either before or during it. You learn to lay down your life for the other and ultimately for God. May God help us to discern what is his good will and what is almost good 😌

Wow. This is a very interesting story. I believe that the prophecy was correct. Thank you for sharing sir. I believe that the Lord has been speaking to me over about 1 month and this a.m, about a Suddenly. If you could give me a tip on how to be ready, ( i donr know what the suddenly is ) I would really appreciate it as, as I look at my life it has been, Almost! I do need the Lord to do somethings in my life for sure, but don't want to miss anymore. I have ready your Eat Sleep Prophecy book, that has been very good. 🙏

Good testimony ❤love it.I’m to old to get married again.🙂Bless everyone that waiting on a husband.God bless

Thanks for this message. I thought I stumbled on this but this is sure for me at this time. Been waiting so long for that perfect employment offer and that waiting has turned to anxiety. The message for me is 'wait for Isaac'. don't be in a hurry to accept Ishmael and be ready when Isaac shows up.
