Please pray for me I’m a single mother raising not one but two children on the spectrum and I’m struggling financially trying to provide for us since losing my job. Jesus hear my prayers. I’m so discouraged.
🙏🏼 Trust the Lord, praise Him for the everything He has blessed you with. He knows your needs; don’t allow the devil to lie to you, God will provide.
Jeremiah 29:11 ~ For I know the plans I have for you, declares the Lord, plans for welfare and not for evil, to give you a future and a hope.

Proverbs 3:5-6 ~ Trust in the Lord with all your heart, and do not lean on your own understanding. In all your ways acknowledge him, and he will make straight your paths.

Lately I’ve just been feeling depressed and stressed and on the border of giving up. I got a agenda the other day and one of my goals is to strengthen my relationship with the Lord. I pray that father God I grow closer to u and I pray that the people who do not know of you find you. I pray for the ones struggling with life problems I pray they put their faith in you. In Jesus name amen
I am exhausted and tired with challenges I'm facing in my family, Please pray for me.
Today I officially accept Jesus as my savior and this song plays while I pray. Thank God for the best decision I could have made!
🎉🎉🎉🎉
Remember the exact date you did it. It's an important day. Welcome to the kingdom of God, if there could be something I could say to myself a year ago when I first got saved... Is, no matter how distant God might seem he is right next to you. I might also say that it might be very very very very hard... God won't let you fall to the hands of the enemy. You're in for a long ride. But a very beautiful love filled life changing amazing ride. Christ was the best choice i made in my life. Im sure you'll come to find out the same.
😊😊p😊😊
I’m so happy for you friend

Watching from Marysville Ohio. Please pray for my chronic fatigue syndrome. I walk as much as my body will let me. I know God is with me through this.
Congrats to the 2000 who turned to Christ. That's great!
The holy spirit does not consult human schedules.Thank you Father ,I'm winded ,tired but not broken 🙏
Amén!
God will never leave us!!
We just gotta remember to pray for God to yoke us!!
When our burdens seem too heavy for us to carry, He's ALWAYS there. Pray for STRENGTH, FAITH, COURAGE, KNOWLEDGE, CLARITY, HOPE, HUMILITY, GOD'S GRACE, PATIENCE, GOD'S UNFAILING LOVE, ETERNAL ENERGY, WISDOM, UNDERSTANDING, AND ABILITY TO TESTIFY TO OTHERS TO HELP THEM IF THEY MAYBE IN A SIMILAR SITUATION.
Started listening to Steven Furtick 5 years ago in San Diego California, when Jesus refused to let me die again here on earth 🌎 for the 3rd time in the past 12 years
I'm Celebrating 6 Years with Y'all Pastor Steven...
2016 to 2023 and Many More Years to Come
If all you die hard believers out there wouldn't mind to say a prayer for me, and my continuous struggle with addiction. I'm not able to take care of my only Daughter, due to it. It's been almost 10 years, and I'm not sure what to do. I never ask for prayer, but I feel there's no shame in doing so. Thanks everybody.
I’m praying for you. Please remember you are not alone however hard the storm is. God will give you the strength to overcome your addiction and you will be able to prioritise what matters.
I was away from god for a long time, and hated him for the stuff I’ve been through. Today I felt like I needed to just look up a sermon. What you said hit deep. I need him to guide me cause I can’t deal with it alone anymore.
God has never stopped loving you. He can redeem everything you have been through. 💜
Good morning and God bless you all who may see this Jesus loves you
Hello friend?
Amen 🙌🙏❤
The Holy Spirit DOES NOT consult human schedules. AMEN!
I appreciated this so much… I have been struggling with feeling exhausted and burnt out and I am so glad that God is moving me to rely on his strength and not my own!
❤You are loved! You are precious in God's eyes. You are His Beloved. You belong on this Earth. If you are breathing now.... God has a purpose for your life now...... There is Hope and Love, which can only be found in Jesus. God has a purpose for you now. He sees, knows, and understands the pain from your past. God doesn't see your scars from your past, whether you made mistakes or decisions where made for you. What God sees is your Beauty. He sees you as fearfully and wonderfully made. He sees His Child made out of His own image. He sees you as His Beloved, apple of His eye. If you are contemplating suicide, then please comment back. You are important! God loves you, and so do I. God bless!
Dear Lord
I pray you mend the heart of who is reading this. They are full of love and life but they are dealing with some confusion. I pray you remind this person that they are loved, beautiful, strong, unique, and very gifted. I pray you show them the truth so they can repair the things they lack in. Lord it isn't their fault. Life has been unfair to them but your love is all they need. Loving themselves is all they need. I pray you remove any bad energy or bad entities that may have latched on from other people. They are stronger to believe another persons words of discouragement. I pray you remove the people who are no good for them and keep close the ones who truly love them. They mean no harm lord. I pray you heal them at this very moment and that you restore them with the holy spirit God. I pray you keep working in our lives because you are the only one we need God. In Jesus name. Amen.
💙💙
I needed this reminder of gods love and promises-god bless you
Hi Michael. I just happened to look through the comments today while watching Steven's sermon. Your prayer, word for word, is what I truly needed today. I have been in horrific battles for over a decade now. I couldn't get through one traumatic event before heading to a new one. And like your prayer stated, I haven't caused the battles, they literally chased me down, knocking on my door, with unrelenting fire and destruction. I've always been a fighter, overcoming obstacles, but the amount of darkness caught up with me and has left me devastated 💔 I have always believed that God would use me in a great way to help children who had been trafficked. The baggage of all the trauma has scared me so bad that I started believing that my life is over, like it's too late now for anything to change. But despite of it all, I sometimes still get a glimpse of light and hope. I love God with all my heart and have told him that even if nothing changes, I will never stop loving him. Your prayer touched my heart so deep that it was like it was just for me, word for word, from God. Thank you and God bless you 🙏❤🙌
@@gaylastivers5828 God sees you. He hears your every prayer. And God will bless you and your life and you will be filled with holy spirit 🙏🏼
Amen, thank you so much
Rain came wind blew but my house was built on you!!
Lord Jesus please help the struggles single moms have. It can be heavy!❤❤❤
God my trust is in you as the alter and the finisher of my faith in Christ Jesus Name Amen.🙏🙏🙏
Take Over My Heavenly Father.🙏
I'm extremely tired. Not physically, but mentally, emotionally and spiritually. Just here trying to make it financially and it's downright depressing. I am PAST, BEYOND tired. I've seen better days I will admit and God did that for me, but I haven't seen them in a while and this rough moment is lasting so long. I'm past done. I need to feel hope, again, because that hope has taken a backseat at the moment.
I can relate… i am soo TIRED… i am limit bipolar… one day I am fed up, the next day I feel a bit of hope… then back to the depression… I am grateful for when I am now… but I ve been waiting for so long, been fighting for so long… yet … I dont see anything… things take so so long to happen… so many obstacles to overcome… yes I understand you… 😢
Keep trusting God even when it doesn't make sense,coz Jesus is in the boat with you dear
For all my people that's stressing & dealing with sleep insomnia I pray for you to reach peace within 🙏🏾
This is very true,He never consults our human schedule when doing ministry in our house at home,at times we overcome storm and am like how did this work out, I've seen God this year more than I've ever seen Him, thanks
I feeling so tired ...pray for me....
I am 150% maxed out, tapped out, and burned out mentally, emotionally, spiritually, and physically. I don't even know how I get through each day anymore?😳😳😳😳😳😳😳😳😳
I'm sorry! I will pray for you.😢
Steven word help you . Amen 🙏
How u doing
❤❤Right on time Word!! I am feeling so burnt out and tired (emotionally, physically, spiritually, financially, mentally, socially, etc.), but I know that I Am Built To Win!!
Me too
Pray for me I’m battling depression and anxiety and addiction. I started smoking less and haven’t slept peacefully in days… I want to keep pushing through but I’m tired…
Keep pushing.. I know it's hard but God has you❤
My prayers to u stay strong and prayed up I know depression is real I’ve been going through it but can’t let it win 🙏🏼
🙏 praying. This too shall pass. Focus on whatever is your inner peace.
First I want to say I'm proud of you, I know myself it's extremely hard and exhausting going through addiction, I am 3 years clean but I struggle everyday, Also depression and extreme anxiety ❤ don't give up I promise it gets easier... You got this 😊 keeping you in my prayers
Thank your everyone for your encouragement currently 1 month clean 🥺🙏🏾 only by the grace of God.
Always power yourself to move forward and ask God to forgive and seek repentance and peace
I have thought about the fact that if I was as tired as I was raising my 5 kids. Then there's no way that I can even get close to how tired God must be from raisin ALL OF US 😂
😂 oh I remember 42… I’m 68 yrs young and there’s never a dull moment w/Jesus! Recent storm, anchor line failed, 60mph winds blew Crown Prince over to Lord’s Island. On Father’s Day lightning struck where I’d previously been anchored! I would have been toast! God is good! I’m still afloat, still alive & Jesus is the captain of my boat! Praise God He is faithful and keeps doing amazing things!
Wow! That's a "Praise God" event right there.
Amen! Holy Spirit does not consult human schedule! He’s adjusted my course quite a few times, but I’ve just learned to roll with it! With Jesus aboard Crown Prince I usually can sleep during storms, unless He wakes me and directs me to do otherwise.
God gave me Crown Prince, provided for the yacht to be moved from TX to FL & I couldn’t have gotten to the property/island where HE directed me to build without a vessel! The vision He gave me includes a Christian/environmentally friendly facility “A Resting Place Retreat Center” & the faith & family-friendly “Emerald Coast Film Festival” which is to be built on what I’ve named via Holy Spirit “Lords island”.
Love your sermons! God bless you, your family, worship team, staff and volunteers. Let me know when you’re coming to Santa Rosa Beach Florida, I’ll leave the light on for you!
Im sure there isnt for someone at 42 🤣 missed that poor boat lucky b*tch
My fourth man in the fire, my Lord and Savior 🙏🏻💜
I AM SO WORE OUT, I feel like I’m ready to give in.😭😭😭. I feel like I have no more strength to fight anymore.
Please pray for me 🙏🙏🙏.
I pray God will give you his supernatural strength
Keep fighting 💪🏾 The Lord is your strength 🙏🏾
i hope everything worked out
I've ever been in that situation but God was at my door at the least expected hour,have He will be at yours too
I am asking for prayers as well. My husband is struggling with a drug addiction. It has really tore up our entire foundation. I believe that the Lord will answer my prayers but for now I pray for strenght and peace especially for my children 🙏
We pray God meets with you in the area of your deepest need and that you would know the greatness of the power of His spirit at work in you 🙏
Jesus gives me Grace to do this season and I’m tired weary but I’m still standing
OOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOHHHHHHHHHHHWWWWWWWWWWWWEEEEEEEEEEEEEEE
THIS MESSAGE RIGHT HERE!!! IT WILL GET YOU HYPE WHEN YOU'RE SITTING DOWN @ WORK!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! GLORY TO GOD!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
If you would hear his voice and when you hear it, do not harden your heart ❤️❤️
❤❤❤❤❤❤❤
God already spoke to me that what's meant for me will come directly to me
Thank you God for pastor Steven , the amount of work that goes in to give us a good sermon is scary to envision. Really appreciate everything that you do pastor , May God always protect and guard your heart 🙏
Thank you elevation church for allowing me to Worship with every Sunday and turning my home into Church of Worship.
Praying for this wonderful world 🙏 Jesus is going to meet all of everyone's needs in Jesus name Amen and Amen

This made me tear up, because he is so real for actually describing and using his life as an example!!!!!! 💛 Y'all let's not forget to pray for him also! 🙏
Thank u lord for another day
Thank you God for loving us in Jesus name amen 🙏🏼❤🙌
I recently got baptized in April 2023 and it'sBY FAR the BEST day of my life, apart from having my 2 girls ❤ and the GREATEST decision I've EVER made. The decision to give my life over to my Heavenly Father came at one of the LOWEST moments of my life, but I realized that God works in some SERIOUSLY MYSTERIOUS WAYS and during my lowest moment... He TRULY touched my heart in a way NO ONE ELSE EVER HAS, COULD OR IN A WAY I COULD EVER DREAM!! I was just scared because it was an unknown for me.... But now, I have learned and am still learning ❤ how much He really loves me. And EXACTLY HOW MUCH He's done for me and my family. God IS ALWAYS GOOD!!
IVE JUST GOTTA LEARN THAT GOD'S TIMING IS TRULY PERFECT.... EVEN WHEN YOU FEEL LIKE YOU'RE TIRED, HE'S THERE WITH YOU, ALWAYS!! ❤ HE'S TESTING YOUR FAITH, PATINCE, AND PREPARING YOU FOR THE NEXT CHAPTER OF YOUR LIFE. FAITH = PERSEVERANCE=HOPE
Winded becomes distracted. This is why we need to wait upon the Lord and renew our strength in Him.
John 4:6. There have been times in my life, where I’ve clung to those words. “Jesus was tired.” I’m in another bone achingly, exhausting stretch of life, where everything feels so heavy. I just walk round all day, I’m a state of peace knowing that I’m back where I belong, but complete and utter exhaustion. On top of everything else that Jesus was, he was also: tired. Knowing that is enough to keep me going for now.
I am at a lost for words, not sure what to do anymore amen❤
Love when Pastor reads the word from the Bible 📖👏🏾💙love serving all glory to God🙌🏾✝️
“It’s the worst thing in the world…to have a job that you have to do, when you yourself are winded. Especially when you don’t want anyone to see how winded you are.” That…spoke to me on so many levels. I thank God for my promotion and for His blessings in my life but since getting it I’ve been so stressed and staying over hours almost every week and it’s made me feel bad. Like I let Jesus down for this blessing He gave me and that I don’t deserve it. Ike I let Him down and he made a mistake for giving me this blessing. I feel like I’ve let everyone down but mostly Him for saying I’m tired and everyone worries about me but I don’t let them see how tired and exhausted I am. I don’t want to let Him down but it’s hard. Thank you pastor Steven for being so real and transparent and for showing me that it’s ok to feel tired sometimes. I’m only human.
Listening to you Pastor Steven is SO good! So uplifting and exactly what I needed today!! Thank you for being true & real in the name of Jesus ❤
I’m tired, but still on the battle field.
🔥🔥🔥🙌🏾🙌🏾🙌🏾🙏🏾🙏🏾🙏🏾whew Jesus! You brought that revelation!!! Thank you Lord for leaders who hear your voice and deliver!!!
Playing this for my students today 💛 ! Amen !
Hello Pastor elevation Church community I just want to tell you guys I love you guys I listen to you all the time I reside in Banning California I hope that you guys would come this way one day. Also I just want to tell you what really minister to my heart today was taming my tongue and that I need to keep asking for forgiveness even in midstream of cursing I get told by my partner that that I'm I I read the Bible and I worship and I watch sermons and attend church occasionally and I'm a hypocrite So if you could just know that this minister to my heart and most amazing in time.. And also something that ministered is to get ready Don't be disappointed Jesus name I just thank you and I praise you guys all of you for everything that you do for this ministry and mostly and utmost respect for our God Almighty.❤❤
I need some prayers, at a really low point right now.
I believe in cardio. You need it for stamina!
Strengthening and toning 5 to 7 days a week. You need a strong muscle base to burn calories.
We need the Holy spirit more than what we need a physically fit body and we need God and his healing. May the Holy spirit strengthen us all!
The holyspirit does not consult human schedules ❤ Difficult to hear but very true
I sat there listening to you speak through this video and man when I tell you how much I’ve been relating to your word. It’s been a rough few months for me having to make such a big change of moving out on my own and having a child at a young age. I’ve become so down and depressed from the stress it’s brought me that I haven’t even felt real. I broke down crying just listening to what you were saying because it’s how I’ve been feeling lately. I know the lord is with me and I know he is working to help me but man am I tired. I know the battle will be over soon as it was before🙏🏻thank you for this video
In life we have to be winded for God just depend on God's spirit. Amen

Please pray for me cause I been getting winded and I want to do what Jesus wants me to do.❤t❤y
Totally me, I exhausted...but what do you want me to do next Jesus I'm ready!!!
I am so tired of all the bad things that is happening to me and my children. The constant disappointments, stress,and the no breaththroughs.Being hopeful about God big blessings in my life and my children's life. I don't know, but I AM TIRED about everything. I am so afraid now of praying and asking God about things in my life and also for my children. How can you have faith and hope when constantly your heart being broken in good things.Also pray for all these bad things to stop but God isn't showing up and give me and my children breakthroughs that we deserve but people taking taking it away from you through pure evil works. How God can allow that to happen to us?😟😟
I’ve been battling my mind these past five years and I was beyond tired after the first year. I felt like I gave up a loong time ago. Idk what to do. I’m barely able to drag myself through each day. Doing the bare minimum is not what I expect from myself.
The holy spirit does not const human schedules 😊🎉
Please pray for my daughter and her family going for a holiday safe traveling blood covering over them God must take them safe and bring them back safe names heston. Daksha Isabel and Ethan maggie
Thank you God for giving us energy to complete the work that you started in us. In the name of Jesus for the glory of God
God have mercy on me
But continue trust in God Amen god will provide in my needs
Pastor Furtic always seems to have the Word I need when I need it. Thank you Brother! God bless you're family is in my prayers. I was in childrens ministry for over 5 years and buried myself into it. My saddest point in life was when that ended. I hope you never get there. Ministry was something I felt called to all my life. I haven't given up and have found that sometimes God might pull you to the sidelines for a time to prepare you for other things or protect you.
Help me Lord i need you.
You're a true son of God steven
Amen 🙏.
Jesus, you know I needed this ❤
Amen the Holy Spirit does not consult humans that doesn’t make sense
I am about out of oxygen because hardship and losses and not trying to be a victim but I miss feeling good about being a people person, but I miss that I feel I don't get appreciate those who gave me strength to hold my heart.
I’m winded and this hit home🥹🥹❤❤ Thank you for this word!!❤❤
Depend on the spirit of God
Shalom peace and blessings y'all 👋👋
Hello friend?
