I strived for everything I thought i wanted in life. The day i finally got everything, I felt empty. I finally realised that what i always wanted would not bring me joy. I turned my back on all of it. I gave my life to God, and gave up all my wants. I gave up my wants, but God then gave me my needs. I found real joy. The happiness that I gathered could be snatched away in seconds. The joy that i have now can not be taken by anybody.
can u tell me what was that, like im everyday trying to make money and trying to go to the gym, but yeah i feel empty from inside but i fail to make relationships aswell, acn u tell me what should i do instead?
Pmar Memr I don’t think making enough money to survive and working out to stay fit is wrong but just don’t obsess over these things or try to go overboard. I think making your relationship with God the top priority should be your main focus. I could be wrong though I haven’t even finished this video yet.
Great video. This is one to save and rewatch. In my twenties, I thought my academic accomplishments would bring me fulfillment. In my thirties, I got married to feel fulfilled. None of those pursuits and accomplishments fulfilled me. I am thankful for what I learned from those experiences, however. Fulfillment only comes through Christ. We should be thankful for what we achieve but we shouldn’t define ourselves by our achievements. There are elderly people who still tell me to pursue prestige and marriage. This poor advice reminds me of what not to do.
Daggon!!! I have been watching all of Jesse's videos for months & this is by far the very best, most humble, lovely I have ever seen him. Brought tears to my eyes.
Ahmazin! This is the freedom I've been feeling and trying to explain to the people around me. Just going to send them this video from now on. Thanks Jessie!
Seeing is going deep into the essence of a thing and not stopping to judge any observed levels. As soon as you form an opinion of a thing, you stop seeing it. As you see through, love grows.
I think seeking success to fill a void is useless and the issue, but I can tell from myself as being very fulfilled and happy with my life, it has made me want to reach my full God-given potential.
I used to feel the same way about money making me feel better. I have a lot of money now, it didn't make me feel better but I became unable to spend it. It's really bad.
For me I feel pressure from the judgment of other people, especially family or materialistic Christians. When I go to a reunion of some kind, they will share their financial, academic or other accomplishments with one another and then turn to me. If I don't have an accomplishment to share I will sense their contempt and probably become a topic of discussion at my expense. The fear of having to endure that used to have A LOT of control over me. Now, I just avoid that kind of setting. I realize what I love and what they love are very different things. The Christians who do that still bother me, though. I often get compared to my brother who has made a lot of money and works in a church. I too have made money, but I don't give it much thought. His successes seem to be well known, though, while mine are not. Since his money has earned a lot of esteem in church circles, I often feel inferior when people want to talk about his money with me. Great discussion! 👍🏼
Forgive them! They probably have insecurities from grief, or trauma and have thaught themselves that money equals happyness. Don't feel bothered/angry, try to see that they act that way from anger and/or pain. That way you can see the hurt in their heart and forgive them with love. Following Jesse, God revealed the truth to me about a lot of things I was angry about in other people; I was either projecting my own bad behaviour/hurt on people and getting angry at 'them', or I was suffering from their anger and discovered it came from their own grief and hurt. After God came into my life, I could see. He revealed my hurt, allowing me to forgive it and allowed me to see the real heart of people. Discover the hurt in their anger, which allows me to forgive the most wicked of people.
So at the end Jesse gave us a couple scriptures. Can somebody explain what these passages have anything to do with his message... Here they are: Are You greater than our father Jacob, who gave us the well, and drank from it himself, as well as his sons and his livestock?” John 4:12 NKJV And thus the secrets of his heart are revealed; and so, falling down on his face, he will worship God and report that God is truly among you. I Corinthians 14:25 NKJV It's almost as if he threw some random passages out there... and he said, "Corinthians 14:25" instead of, "FIRST Corinthians 14:25." If I hadn't known there is no 14th chapter in 2nd Corinthians it would have been even more confusing than it already is. I love this man but he needs to know his Bible!
❤❤❤❤people want to be rich in the world not rich with God , people want to be popular with people not popular with God ,they may are may not recognize this and if they do ,they can not let go of the fame and fortune of the world even though Heaven awaits them .
I tried nonachievement and financial failure, and it was a complete disaster! I had retreated, surrendered, and gave up all my ambitions-it was the most selfish thing I could do. Having just enough to maintain existence with nothing to give anybody else actually brought me misery, sadness and apathy. I was irritable all the time and found everything extraordinarily annoying… because I was losing in life. I, however, did do the prayer thing every night, fasted, forgave my parents, did what was in front of me to do, and let go of all anger. And all that is great, but just doing those things aren’t enough to create a life worth living. You should strive to help others, chase freedom, and try your hardest at reaching your full potential to make a positive impact in the world. You should accomplish things now so you and your family don’t have to suffer later. You should take control of everything in your life and assume ownership of all outcomes and never blame others. You should be able not only to pull your own weight, but other’s also. That’s when life happens, the color comes back into the world, and your suffering is no longer in vain. I know if Donald Trump didn’t pursue success he wouldn’t be doing what he is doing right now. Just remember this: if you think success doesn’t matter, you will not have it.
When you're young your ego makes you seek after success, and makes a man pursue a woman. Eventually you're supposed to overcome your ego. When you're about what's right, and not about ego, you continue to work.
@@rebuildingtheman First, I want to thank you for all you do, and for that swift reply-I appreciate it my brother! And… that’s a great point; I don’t have anything to add to that.
I don't know. I think it depends on what you do with your success that determines your joy and happiness. Just like Jesse is using his success for the glory of God, others can too. So why not pursue it?
Ambition/SUCCESS/PRIDE are no GOOD, unless moderated by [your] HUMILITY. 'Success' & Ambition are WAY OVER-RATED... MY mom [she dead] HAD to 'accomplish' SOMETHING multiple times a day...if she didn't she was depressed and down...It was challenging b/c I have a totally different perspective. Egoism & vanity are RAMPANT in the modern [inverted] real__ity!!
There's a German comedian, that made a quite deep joke: Imagine a lion, laying in the African savanna would suddenly weak up and think 'economically'. Instead of eating a a buffalo once he's hungry and only seeks neat again when hungry, he now hunts as much as possible. WOW! Great job lion, you have amassed 10 buffalos, but now what? He needs to store them and build a fridge to store them appropriately. The lion still isn't happy with his situation and the next day hunts down 50 buffalos. Oh man, now he needs to export his slay to other lions and starts building a truck fleet. In the end, the lion has no moment for himself, he can't just lay down in the grass for hours on time after a kill. The lion feels cheated. Yet we humans, need to be 'ambitious', 'hustling' our way through life. We are actually the most stupid species on this planet...
How can a so called Minister , not read the Bible that he himself professes, and Preach the Gospel??? 2 Timothy 2: 15 " study to shew thyself approved unto GOD, a workman that needth not to be ashamed, rightly dividing the TRUTH." Read the bible jessie
2011-2019 Jesse’s Church videos are some of the best of all time.

How are you doing today?
I wish you well 🤍
Amen!
This is extremely high quality television, thank you BOND.
I realize it is kinda randomly asking but does anybody know of a good site to stream new movies online?
@Ruben Camdyn Flixportal :D
@Jared Zayden Thanks, I went there and it seems to work :D I really appreciate it !
@Ruben Camdyn Glad I could help xD
God bless you Pastor Jesse 🙏❤️

Anyone else start saying amazin to something in these videos right before Jesse says it?
AHMAZIN
It’s a mayzin!
I say wonderful a lot. Mostly to people when they tell me something that isn't pertaining to the present moment

Amazing show thank you

Hallelujah, thank You Lord for sending such an amazing teacher!!!!!
That was beautiful ❤️
Jesse I listen to your radio show everday,God bless you love from the UK.
That lawyer’s honesty is amazing. Love his ability to be vulnerable like that. Overcoming my ego will be the greatest difficulty of my life.
MR PETERSON.....YOU MAKE SENSE. THANK YOU

Death, where is your sting? I die daily.
I am glad that Jessie isn't a COWARD like the people in the crowd who are AFRAID to reveal who they are and how they feel.
I used to feel the same way about money making me feel better. I have a lot of money now, it didn't make me feel better but I became unable to spend it. It's really bad.
It's shallow to pursue SUSSESS

Do you think all the prisons do bad because they aren’t connected to god
Didn't Jesse write a pocket guide to Success?

How does one attend these events? Do they cost?
This is free each Sunday in CA
Jesse, can you please incorporate audience camera in your videos, it would be great to see the people as they talk to you
Mafa Emmanuel Nope! It's fine the way it is because it is not that important and some of the members want/need their privacy😁...
Mr Outdoors It would be nice to attach a face to a voice, but i can understand the privacy concern.
If you do not have the back bone to tell ALL people how you REALLY feel and think than you are a COWARD!!!!! Lower than a woman!

We aren't equal to animals. We have higher aspirations (that come from God) which we are free to do when we don't just struggle.
Have you heard about Darwin and evolution?
How much does Jesse spend on wardrobe? Is this a weakness?
This Lawyer has not overcome his problems 🤷♂️🤔… it’s all about his Ego 👀
