1. If God is removing the wrong people from your life.
2. If God is refining your motives for marriage.
3. If God is highlighting problematic areas that might be restricting success.
4. If God is helping you produce more good fruit even though painful things are happening to you in the area of relationships.

God is good 💗

God bless brother Mark! Right on time man. Since I arrived early, i'll add my summarised notes:
1. If God is removing the wrong people from your life 0:40 - God will remove the wrong relationships or dead relationships which might take energy from you that you can use to focus on the one He has for you.
2. If God is refining your motives for marriage by removing the bad and growing the good 1:50 - Our motives for marriage matter to God. We need to really remain in Jesus, and reflect the love of Christ to everyone in our lives.
3. If God is highlighting problematic areas that might be restricting your relationship success 3:41 - No one but God can tell you if you need to change something in your life to receive what he wants to give you. He will show you areas in your life that might be keeping you single (like specific unattractive manners towards the opposite gender or doing too little or doing too much).
4. If God is helping you produce more good fruit even though painful things are happening to you in the area of relationships 4:26 - To prune means to cut away. When God prunes us, the cutting can be painful. But when God is doing the pruning, the pain always results in better things for us.

God definitely has me in the pruning season, and this video definitely confirms it. Thanks so much for making it and posting it, Mark.

God can certainly close doors as Mark said. He can prevent things that are not His Will to get started too. He watches over us. I like the first point especially if you wonder why things never work out.

I did always think I was being punished because of remaining single so long

[Godschild]

Amen the Lord allowed a person who i should have not been involved with to offend me in order for me to block them.

[christielove]

Amen, prune me Lord for the Good you have for my life Thank you Heavenly Father ✝️🛐💜.

PRAISE BE TO GOD
1. He has removed people from my life and is surrounding me with amazing christian friendships.
2. My motives for marriage have definately been changing over the years. I now actually crave a Godly marriage and to raise a Godly family with purity instead of what I use to which was for pure happiness.
3. He is already showing me areas that I need to work on. Areas I have wanted to work on in my life for years now and have motivation to do so now!
4. This one hasnt happened yet but I am positive it will because I believe I am actually going through a painful season as I write this!

PRAISE BE TO GOD FOR HE IS SOO GOOD TO ME AND ALL OF US ✝️❤

God is definitely doing all of these in my life. The progress that is happening though... I feel like I'm several years away from ready.

[kahola]

Great insightful tips, than you Mark. I can see God showing and working me through 2 of these tips.🙏🏾

So what happens if the pain brings about sin, but you realize the sin is just a sign the source of the pain has power over you it doesn't deserve, so then you begin to have clarity and healing?

[andrewsowik]

On the grind following God pruning im makeing myself better 5 years ill start looking for a woman and god will help im happy single or married whichever god wants it shall be done

[rinrinrainbow]

Hallelujah, praise God for my pruning season. 💕 Amen.

[CrownedJulz]

Very accurate for this season, timing is immaculate Mark. Felt a strong pull to press in with the Lord and pull away with other relationships to pray about certain woman and seeing Him purify my motives for a while.

[leah]

I have faith that this message was definitely for me

[S.M.Jean-Mahmoud_Ier]

Another pinpointed finely timed video from Mark Ballenger... God must be at works towards you ! Keep it up !
