Does God tell you who to marry?  I often meet well-intentioned women who feel that God has revealed who they are going to marry.  I always ask them: Does your Mr. Wonderful agree with this idea? For insight on how to distinguish God’s voice, from your own desires, watch this video.

    This is great, Ang!

    I like how you brought into context how multiple wills are involved in life-changing events, therefore, to not pressure others with the “God told me” comment, but to hold the God-told-me’s inside and trust that God will bring whatever “He said” to pass. A lightness comes to the heart when you decide to do this… peace and joy stays and you’re free to live life without worrying whether you’ve missed it or messed it up.

    Thanks for doing these videos! You’re amazing.

    Thank you Angie,

    God did tell me that this man would be my husband, I would never have told him but someone i thought I could trust told
    him and I was so embarrassed. She said he needed to know. I have learned my lesson to keep it in my heart. His pastor told him God won’t tell women that a man is to be her husband. He gave the scripture when a man finds a wife…
    I thank God for the peace He has given to me. I know what I heard and pray that God will still work it out. Thank you
    for being obedient to God in making this video.

    Thank you so much.I was shown in several dreams that this particular girl will be my wife.I dated her abt 2yrs ago and i had to quit because she was not a believer but I loved her very much

    I even had a confirmation dream the night before I met her for the first time in 2yrs at her sisters baby shower.I wasn’t sure how to handle this because I think she is still not born but she likes me.Thanks Angie for your advice trusting that God will bring it to pass.

    Actually In another dream {typicaly how I receive my prophesies} I was shown that she will ask me to join her to church.Thats probably when I’ll share with her.Thank you so much.You just answered what I was searching for.May God bless!!!

    Just trust God, if its Him who promised He’ll bring it to pass in His own time, if He did not promise and you heard from your own fleshly desires for this man, then no matter how you pray it wont come to pass. Im not trying to discourage you hence i urge you to make show It was God speaking to you in the first place…but all the best!

    God told me that the man I use to see was the man I will marry. In the beginning when we started to see each other. I was feeling lost not looking to date no one, After he told me something special I had a feeling there was something great about him! I told my friend how I really liked him. She blurted out he’s going to be your husband! I (ACTS 2:17 IN THE LAST DAYS GOD SAYS I WILL POUR OUT MY SPIRIT ON ALL PEOPLE… YOUR SONS AND DAUGHTERS WILL PROPHECY AND YOUR YOUNG MEN SHALL SEE VISIONS, AND YOUR OLD MEN SHALL SEE DREAMS) did take what was said to heart for a little while. Then as time went by I didnt dwell n it. Doing that time I was in the world not focused on being married living somewhat wordly with sin. Satan did blind me and we both was living a life with out God in our lives. Since we been apart the Lord has confirmed to me many of times that he’s the one! through scriptures, music that still small voice, prophets, even people who dont know what’s going on, also signs and miracles. Whats so wonderful is that he gave me his name.! I definitely had to make sure. I never experienced anything like this. Good is good very worthty to be praised! he will indeed show you if a relationship is right for you! I give him the glory I put him first and the thanks I get. As a matter of fact this is the year that the love of my life will be back forever. I havnt heard his voice in a while it’s ok because I know what’s promised to me.

    I believe when I was overseas God told me who my wife would be. I told one person, who told my chain of command, who told her, who told the guy she was dating, who was probably the mysterious unamed person, who told my CPT, that I said stuff about her that I didn’t say and probably shouldn’t write on here. Then I was diagnosed with a mental disorder by an athiest CPT, who assured me that him not believing in God didn’t affect his conclusion that God didn’t “really” speak to me. Not to mention that the slander was written on my paperwork, all while I was asking to have an oppurtunity to face my accuser and deny the charges. Which I was denied because it was allready on the paperwork. Bottom line. In my opinion never tell anyone. But, if you do. Don’t ever back down. Especially if the person is an athiest.

    Chris, What an incredible story! Sadly, religious discrimination is alive and well. Great advice from your lesson learned the hard way. Thank you.

  10. Trusting Him

    19. Jan, 2012

    A while back I truly believe the Lord was telling me that my boyfriend was the one He had prepared as my husband.. Excited for the revelation I ran to him to tell him what the Lord has shared with me.. Unfortunately it was not also reveled to him at that point in time.. We dated for a couple more years after that both seeking God’s will for our lives.. A month and a half ago we broke up.. In this time I have clung to the Lord confused and hurt.. I felt betrayed by the Lord wondering if this was a cruel joke..

    Through trusting and turning to my Jesus I know that He did not betray me and that He has plans to prosper me not to harm me.. He has made me aware of areas in our relationship that He was not invited and there are areas in both of our hearts that need Him.. and since we (or maybe just me) decided to try to “make” it happen instead of trusting the Lord and turning to Him in prayer on this, He needed to seperate us..

    Now I realize that my reason for sharing wasn’t completely pure excitment.. A big part of me wanted this to make him see that this was God.. I now realize that my only confirmation that it truly was God and not my flesh is if He confirms it in his heart also..

    How do you make it right with god if you’ve been living with someone,not being married for 5 years, now that I know now that this is called fornication inwhich is a very bad sin! What do we do to make this right in Gods eyes. Very Concerned

    George, I’ve spoken with many couples in your same situation. If you love her, why not get married? I wouldn’t suggest changing your living situation until then. If she wants a large wedding that takes some months to plan, you can always have a judge marry you immediately, and then celebrate later. But, conviction is a gift. Don’t waste time feeling badly. Just asked God, “okay, now what?”

    So I’ve been just reading stories over – I am a nursing student and in a time of my life where I feel as God is testing my faith and wanting me to completely focus and depend on Him. But I met a guy recently – just friends (which I prefer right now) but its like I’m finally at peace and content because I feel like I just know I’m going to marry him. Things have fallen into place with the way we met – Seems to be God – but…I see the pattern of people’s stories. Not all are the same…its hard to explain, its just that felling of “I just know…” I guess I trust God and time will well!

    So recently I have felt God telling me that I’m going to marry this guy (Ryan) that is a friend of mine but I have another friend that says that Ryan thinks he has found “the one”. I’m so confused. What should I do?

    Being an older christian with lots of life experiences I can tell the ladies one thing. Keep it to yourself. Unless God has told you and told you specifically to speak to the man about what you feel is God’s divine plan for you as a couple, keep silent and pray like crazy.

  17. Angie Wyatt

    Rhea, I agree with Elizabeth. If you think Ryan is the guy for you, but you don’t have a romantic relationship, then its best to keep that desire to yourself. Should you start dating Ryan, you should still keep it to yourself . . . until he starts to indicate that he’s on the same page. Remember, God doesn’t author confusion. If you feel confused, then there may be something else at play here. God bless!
