    This is why we must seek God on who to marry because you are right. I always say it’s not just about getting married but being patient, having discernment, and asking The Most High to lead you to your partner because people will play a part to marry a person, even play the part of being a godly person, only to switch up after they are married. Unfortunately, I have seen an example of this; of someone who rushed to marry a woman I know, be a narcissist, and leave her abruptly after he got what he wanted from her.

    There are probably 100s of KZreadrs and Twitter users that constantly tell women what they’re doing wrong, how to be better wives, better women, what women should do, how they should act, how they should think, dress, cook, have children. But I haven’t seen one KZreadr directed at how men should prepare for being a husband, a father, a leader. Every KZreadr dealing with males talks about how to manipulate women into bed, how to manipulate women and use them for resources. Every one of them.

    No disrespect but it might be down to your choice of videos that have your attention. The algorithm feeds us what it thinks we like. If you constantly watch and comment on videos directed towards women, that's what the For You page will feed you. If you start telling KZread you aren't interested in women-only rhetoric and give your time and attention to KZreadrs like Shumake, Ruslan KD or Jason Wilson who focus their Christian-based content towards men, you'll start to see more of that type of content. I had to do the same thing when I got tired of negative, ungodly content. The algorithm will respond pretty quickly. Hope that helps!

    As a man, I’ve made my mission to only engage with a woman in a covenant when I see myself laying my life down for her. As a man with sisters , I tell them all the time. Use discernment and see that men actions . Don’t let his sweet words dictate what you do, but his actions towards the people around him will tell you everything you need to know about that man. Sadly, many men have no self control and show their hands. Yet, many women who lacks discernment don’t see it. Finally, we both (man/woman) need to control our lust because it’s causing a lot of heartache . A man who love you like Christ love us, will show himself enough with patience .

    3 months is really fast to get engaged. What I’ve noticed is that most unsuccessful marriages occur because both people don’t know each other well enough. They say the “honeymoon phase”of a relationship lasts up to 2 years so it’s a good idea to not get married until after the 2 year mark. If someone is wearing a mask it will slip during this time period. It’s also a good idea to spend multiple holidays with this person and their family to see what the dynamics are within the family and how they were raised/what they are used to. This will help determine compatibility long term.

The deciding factor that will determine the success of your relationship is your joint willingness to overcome obstacles as they appear and doing so I will strengthen the bond you have with your partner.

I understand the desire, but this is incredibly dangerous. All the Africans I know have very clearly stated its a terrible idea tapping into that type of spiritually. Witchcraft and ancestral worship is nothing more than an attempt to control nature and usurp God's authority. What they don't understand is they have now given demons authority over their lives. My prayers are that this young lady will wake up and turn to Jesus, the true source of all power.

    Yes, I learnt a bit of psychology and just how to spot redflags and I'm still learning. Vetting needs to be ruthless, which is very important and will give women peace, because most women still want companionship at the end of the day and most people miss a lot of redflags.

    The other day I was over at my friend's house and she was asking me why don't I have a boyfriend. Don't you want kids. Don't you want to get married. I told her I don't want kids I am good right now I don't need no Dusty man trying to take over my life and my home which I have in my name. And God will find me that person that I meant to be with not just some random guy. She kind of upset me by saying ask me those questions because she always want to be in a relationship I really don't care but she's always goes for those Bad Boys Dusty dudes

    Seems like the questions she asked were general questions friends or women you associate with may ask. What I spotted is your response being only how it relates to a negative dude, as if that's your only option. "I will when I find the right guy." Would have sufficed. But you saying you don't want no dusty dude is a weird response and it makes you sound like you've been through some things. I say that to say...the negative way you think about men may have some impact on you finding this "right guy" for you because you're going to be too bitter to notice him.

    Honestly…there’s no guarantee to anything. If a man really wants you he’ll lie, for a long time, to get what he wants. The best thing we as Christians can do is pray to God for discernment, and to REALLY get to know people. You have to go through things with people IN PERSON not just over the internet-(‘cause a lot of people date long term online) to see how they react in a variety of situations. Marriage isn’t a guarantee either because look at many people’s Husbands who cheat, RELIGIOUSLY. Just gotta trust in God and stay prayed up.

    Here's the thing, we are always talking about readiness for marriage but since when does that mean that you have to be 30.People used to get married straight out of high school and then it went to early 20s. So why is it now after living all of this life alone society says your ready at close to or above 30.If you look at the trends you will see that people have been getting married later only due to social constructs. People keep making the age of maturity older and older so there is no incentive to start your life together with someone as a young person. We need to teach that better. I talk to my son about this. He's 16. At this age the pressure is on to have sex. My point is why is there pressure to have sex but not be in an actual relationship. This is not saying that I want him in a relationship but I do tell him that if he likes a girl then slow down get to really know her as friends. Make sure that you are actually liking this person and not just sexually attracted to them. I also tell him that marriage is the goal. There are guys who were bought up like this but what they find is that other people don't have as pure intentions and this is how foolishness begins. A lot of our problems with readiness for relationships is upbringing and being disappointed in the dating market. We have to do better.

    Marriage is not a guarantee but I would rather be married and pleasing to god before I just go around sleeping with someone. If they want to go out there and break the convent that they made before you and god let them do it. You should never regret getting married to someone because at the end of the day you did your part. If they decide they wanna leave you after they find someone else they like or they just grew tired of you all of a sudden let them go. It hurts but you just sit back and watch the blessings you get from being the one true person god wants you to be and watch what happens to them. That’s when your on the right path in life period.

    You need to do atleast 21 days of praying and fasting before you marry a man or woman. Preferably no food just water. Get on your knees and pray before Jesus! God will reveal who they are to you. You DO NOT move till you hear God. You cannot make the decision to marry a person and then ask God to bless it because in your flesh you think he/she has showed you the right signs. We do not know the heart of human beings ONLY JESUS does. Trust me that is the only way. Go into isolation and go and seek God BEFORE, NOT after you make the decision. Make sure you are also silent before God, so you can hear him clearly also. Some things are only answered by prayer & fasting and I believe 100% marriage is one of them. Yes, God will help you even after you make the wrong decision about your spouse, (if you didn’t ask him first) - once you repent. However, to just avoid this disaster and to get the covering from God in the beginning, just ask him in your prayer closet ALONE and consecrate yourself before him. And don’t have sex outside of marriage. That’s the secret to God covering your marriage. Yes, some disagreements will arise in marriages but ultimately God will be in the centre of it because you put him FIRST! Mathew 6:33 ❤

    Hi, I really enjoy your videos. They’ve been keeping me intact. Outside of this most recent man I’ve been dating online (we were raised around each others families & have had each other on social media for about 7 years so he isn’t someone unfamiliar), I dated but not with the intent of having my beliefs based on the Bible. Once I met him that’s what our talking stage was based off of (the Bible). He flaked on me 4 times after 5 months of talking and he really made me believe he was a man of God & that everything we promised each other we were going to fulfill. We touched on a lot of topics & had the hard conversations also. Spending an hour on the phone every day to him eventually standing me up feeling like I deserved it. I am happy to know that God is here to help me through this & your KZread videos provide the mental/emotional support not to completely give up on relationships & marriage and a happy home. Thank you for your content it’s really life saving.

    I really feel sorry for these new generation dating each other because the dating scene unfortunately is all messed in a major way. It's hard to really tell the intentions of someone even though you may vet them. They may have been in relationship with you months to years on end and will eventually show their true colors after you have invested all of your energy and your love and your care for that person! That is a lot to gamble on all for the sake of wanting a relationship and or marriage and children with someone. I'm just glad that myself I am at a point in my life where I don't feel like giving my energy only to find out years down the road that that person really wasn't in it the way I was and really probably never even liked me. I'm okay with being single and preserving my energy for my family and the friends that I have in my life that have proven to me that they are here for me. It's unfortunate but it is what it is.

    I personally will never have sex before marriage. It takes me a lot to trust guys. I would need at least 1-2 years with just dates to actually know him enough to start a relationship.

    You don't have to date 1-2 yrs to know what you need to know. That's too much time potentially wasted. If you date the right way, you know in under a year.

    Hey even talking about marriage is not enough. These men have no shame nowadays. I’ve had plenty of men talk to me about marriage and how that looks like and what’s gonna happen leading up and the moment they figure out you serious about abstinence they out. They will say ANYTHING up to and INCLUDING talking about marriage to get with you. Wait until you got the wedding ring and walk down the aisle ladies!!!

    By ring you mean wedding band or engagement ring. I hate engagements. Specially the longer ones. They seem like placeholders. Without a marriage certificate, there’s no true consequence for misconducts such as abuse, cheating etc.

    @@Emptytopfloor it’s more so when you lay the boundaries along the lines of ~ our engagement has to be in front of all our friends and family, social ties to it. If there’s abuse the consequences is the police get involved or the dad or big bro knock some sense into em. If it ends there are social consequences to it but I meant marriage by the ring. Sorry for the confusion

    It’s the opposite for me , I’m looking for abstinence. I just need the partner to commit to courting season of the relationship I’m getting to know each other. There’s no better feeling than knowing someone intimately in Spirit and truth and not fleshly. The joy from that is just pure .

    @@Blindfaithpodcast I agree courting is what we should be telling the youth to do. Getting to know someone in friendship and fellowship and when you’re ready for marriage they could be a potential . People doing it starting from the outside and going in after the fact. Should have known that person spirit before marriage was ever on the table.
