When Prayers Go Unanswered | Steven Furtick
To that soul reading this, GOD gave you a fingerprint that no one else has, so you can leave an imprint that no one else can.
AMEN!!!!!!❤️🙏
Lord you are my strength, the strength and rest that I may need to get through the plans you have in store for me, and when I wake I will be full filled with the strength of persistence and peace ❤ Amen thank you !
Question: If God's Holy Spirit indwells you, then are you taking God to church, in order to worship God?
The truth is that God tells us to worship Him in the spirit, and not in the flesh in our "worship Houses" made by hands.
Sadly, I have just learned this truth, and I want to share it with you, so that you may know this truth as well.
We see in Romans 12:1 that we are to worship in the spirit.
Romans 12:1
I urge you, brothers and sisters, by the mercies of God, to present your bodies as a living and holy sacrifice, acceptable to God, which is your spiritual service of worship."
We see in Philippians 3:3 that we are to worship in the spirit, and NOT in the flesh.
Philippians 3:3
"For we are the circumcision, which worship God in the spirit, and rejoice in Christ Jesus, and have no confidence in the flesh."
Philippians 3:3 says to "have no confidence worshipping in the flesh," so just why are we worshipping in the flesh?
The churches that Paul started were in people's homes for the fellowship (not worship) of members of the "body of Christ.
FELLOWSHIP HOUSES - NOT WORSHIP HOUSES
It is so simple people - but Satan is so crafty.
Satan has blinded the eyes of those who do not follow the commandment of II Timothy 2:15.
II Timothy 2:15
"Study to shew thyself approved unto God, a workman that needeth not to be ashamed, rightly dividing the word of truth."
I am very ashamed for being deceived by Satan for almost all of my life.
I want for you to know the truth of how to worship God as He tells us to worship Him.
We cannot truly worship God in any assembly, because he tells us to worship Him spiritually!
So, who are we truly worshiping at our assemblies? That is the age-old question.
We all need to wake up and start studying our Bibles.
Don't trust me - don't trust anyone - only trust the word of God.
Study to find the truth.
Amen 🙏 I agree with your prayer in Jesus Precious Name Amen 🙏
Amen! I agree with your prayer God bless you & whoever reads this

I feel like I’m in a place where Good is not answering any of my prayers. If I was being completely honest I feel like God enjoys seeing me in this place of suffering and pain and anxiousness. I’m lost because I don’t hear God not even a “don’t worry I got this, but I’m going to drag it out like everything else in your life, until the very last second, and then I’ll bring all crashing down.”
I had a prayer finally answered! From about 4 years of prayers and got the answers and then didnt listen to God! Had a lot of pain because i didnt listen to the answer now im listening! Amazing! Listen to GOD!!!!
God Is SO SO GOOD!!!!!🙏❤️🙏❤️🙏❤️🙏❤️AMEN!!!!!🙏❤️🙏❤️🙏❤️🙏❤️
Some of God's greatest gifts are unanswered prayers, please strengthen my faith and help me to remember His ways are higher.
AMEN!!!🙏❤️

I prayed for my son year after year and he died of an overdosed. It has been a incredibly hard situation to trust God will do anything for me. Mourning and depression took over my mind, BUT I do trust God as I put my feet underneath me and stand up let alone stand in power. I am a daughter of the Most High God!

@Stevenfurtick._I’d love to speak with you. I’ve been at a point in my life where I just can’t even get out of bed. I need help.
Thank you God in Jesus name Amen
Yes this is 🔥What The Children of God Needs In this Generation Not in Religious Way....🔥🔥🔥🔥
I needed to hear this today. As I listened God told me what I needed to say to my daughter. She is the only one that can do this. Nobody can do it for her. God knows she can do this but she needs to know she can do it she needs to trust that God will be with her and give her the strength to get through this
As a small child I prayed by talking to Jesus. I wasn't a prayer warrior and I didn't pour out list after list, I spoke to Him because I new He was with me. How else are we supposed to get to know Jesus if we don't talk and share stuff with Him! He's my bestie so I talk to Him all the time. Be blessed living under His awesome grace, Amanda in UK
Felt like my prayers weren't answered today, but I believe God gives us what we deserve not what we want.. we may feel dispointed but it is for our good
You are so on target!!! Prayer is powerful....give it to Him..trust and keep praying. He hears, he LISTENS. Just because he doesn't answer how we think he should......or when we think he should;
that saints, is when faith should grow. Believe, listen..........He is working according to his plan.
God please give my family back home I need them god 🙏😭

Love you pastor furtick thank you for everything you do for the world threw your sermons
I have no idea what’s going on in my life. I get closer to God, my life gets so so much worse. It makes me scared to get close to him because I don’t want anything else bad to happen. There’s so much going on in my life right now, I am so overwhelmed.
My God is bigger than everything I face, Amen 🙏
It's take a lot of faith to continue believing after an unswered prayer...
I lost my dad and both of my brothers (last year 2022) to ALS. My faith has been very weary in the absence of answers. Thank you for this sermon.
Yes Lord 🙌🏻🙌🏻🙌🏻🙌🏻🙌🏻🙌🏻🙌🏻🙌🏻🙌🏻🙌🏻🙌🏻🙌🏻🙌🏻🙌🏻🙌🏻🙌🏻🙌🏻🙌🏻🙌🏻
Pray for me also n my mom with anxiety issues
Faith. That's your answer. To silence.
The spirit is willing but the Boddy is weak ❤ God Has Purpose for My Life 🙏💕 Yes I Am Mad Where Is God When I Needed Him And Still I Have Love In My Heart And Still Have Faith And Belief Knowing The Los Of My Partner There Has To Be Another World Out There Where Does Our Breath Go ? When We leave Our Boddies Behind Where Does Our memory Go ? When We Die? When we Have Still Love To Share? ❤
Prosperity mambo jumbo, seek the true Yeshua. Trust me, been there done that.....
The prayer is being answered, 90% of the time (for I plans to prosper you not harm you) but sometimes it’s being answered not in the way I want but how God wants and it’s 90% better then what I wanted 😂😬😄
AMEN!!!!!!!🙏❤️

Thank you God For pastor
Steve. God bless for bringing the good news home. Encouraging
Us and helping us on our way home who we are in Christ
No matter what comes
Our way
God loves you and so to we
Thank you GOD for the answered prayers ,for everything you do for me. And for unanswered prayers I know you are able.
Thank you Jesus Christ for restoration in my marriage with my husband Floyd
What a timing... This is exactly what I am facing. similar to the incident shared by pastor losing his dad, I lost my mom to a certain disease. And yes, I can say the fabric of my faith changed post that. I feel scared to ask specific things, I feel not courageous enough to ask desires of my heart anymore..
if someone could remember me in their prayers, I'll be thankful...
Same, I ask for specific things that I feel I genuinely need and it always goes opposite and I suffer more. It’s like… what do I pray for then?
God open door for me for a better Job or my own business thank you Jesus 🙏
Let faith answer the questions
Passively pray
Before I ever watched you before I ever listen to you before I ever knew you I read that book Audacious Faith when God granted Joshua the sun to stand still. That was the season seeds were planted you prayed over a spot every day you drove by it you told God you wanted it for the church and it took years but it happened that book imprinted on me during this time I was locked up and my mother died from leukemia. My faith was shattered and it took a long time to come back from that. But I never forgot your book. And it's crazy you just brought up your book. I listen to you every morning on my way to work. Your words from God plant seeds in my heart every day and help through my day to day struggles. God will one day make a preacher out of me but I have a long way to go. I pray you read this so you can add me in your prayers as my journey has been a long time coming and I'm finally starting to see what God wants from me. And it's what Satan has over and over struck me down preventing me from getting there. Today is different my walk is different my trust has grown my faith has grown and I thank you for being a big part of that. Maybe one day I'll be on a podium breaking God's word to thousands God Willing. God Bless you Steven may God continue blessing you with his word!!!!
If it is possible take this cup from me. Amen
Jesus Christ is sited at the right hand of God now we can sleep in Heavenly place's. Amen
Lord you the only one I trust you give me all my strength and peace Amen 🙏
Amen to unanswered prayers, Steven you are amazing and always helps put my mind in perspective

That's for you Pastor Furtick
Recovering from famine
I saw trees planted by the water, many were bent and twisted and missing a few branches,I was astounded as I walked through them and realized they were very very old, and had been underwater many times as it raged and pounded them with all sorts of large and small waterlogged flood debris! I was amazed that they were still standing and growing, even with pieces of them missing, I thought of the song “I shall not be moved”and thought of the majestic trees the song brought to mind , strong and powerful and tall and steadfast , and was truly humbled when I realized these trees were also planted by the water,unmoved ! Sometimes our mind has different expectations from the word pictures we perceive ;these trees were also incredibly strong and powerful and unmoved, with a strength and beauty of tolerance and survival!
Faith is ability
Thank you Pastor
Awesome message, thank you pastor Steven 😊🤗💕💕💕
Bless you
I'm praying for my family
My healing
💙🙏Thank you for The Word, and the message. May God keep your Family safe, healthy, and full of peace and love. May God continue to speak through you to millions of people who need to hear His Word. In Christ Jesus Name Amen.
I once heard Pastor Steven Furtick speak of sharing how he felt with a friend after being lifted by The Holy Spirit as he prepared his sermon once; I get this excitement in me, when I focus on Jesus, and ask Him for help; i call it a "spiritual high", in a way, and when I do this late at night, it will keep me up when I'm trying to sleep.
When waiting on Prayers to be answered, I'm guilty of letting frustration build up inside me, and if I'm honest, I can see bitterness that will try to consume my heart. This doesn't take away from my Faith, or keep me from seeing Him at work in my daily life, or cause me to forget Allll the Prayers He has answered, and it's necessary to stay grateful, and thankful, and continue to Praise Him! It's all in God's Timing. His Way. His Will. He hears your Prayers! Some just take longer to answer, and more often than not, it's not how you'll expect it! Keep Praising and Thanking God!
we worry out loud and call it prayer OUCH 😀,
I am journaling and this was exactly what i was writing about. So accurate to my thoughts!
This sermon found me right now when I need it the most.
I am going to use this when I pray because I do do that I mean I do that when I pray, but I asked, and I always say I’m asking
