Heard someone say the best season for a fin.ancial breakthrough is now, especially with inflation running at a four-decade high. I have approximately $250k stagnant in my port_folio that needs growth. What is the best way to take advantage of this downturn?
@@oscarkelly3378 An uptick in volatility is not necessarily a bad thing, there are opportunities to be found even in this whirlwind. Best advice just get yourself a coach to guide you in this current market
Life doesn't end when you die, life ends when You give up. But If you're scared, do it anyway. That's how you grow.
@@smithwillison6345 I agree, I assumed had a hang of the market at first, gained $50k one year and I was super elated, not until I stumbled upon a portfolio-advisr whose been guiding me since the market's been sham after the pandemic, to my utmost surprise I nettd a whooping $280K during this dip, that made it clear there's more to the market that we avg joes don't know
@@ebonicalbert5711 I think your proposal has much to comment on ..
I'm battling heart failure at 57 yes old. Its is genetic lost my mom an her mom from heart failure. This sermon 🙌 REALLY hit home. Thank Yòu.
Don't give up...period!💤💤💤

2 Corinthians 5:20 and Ephesians 6:20 I still preaching this message as God's ambassador ...What no one will tell you. Focus your Faith
Just a Reminder, Open up your Bible, and read this for yourself.
2 John 1:7 For many deceivers have gone out into the world,
Do not Ignore the Truth in Jeremiah 27:15, 14:14, and 23:16 that your Preacher, and satan doesn’t want you to know or Hear. ThIs is Surely God’s Voice. Not only will you need this information for yourself, but you will want to share this with others Matthew 7:15 Beware of False Teachers.

Every morning in the extra hour I get to work early I listen to u preach, while I set up the salon for the day and do my hair and make up. My boss saw it one day and said to me that he doesn't think it's working, I then explained that it is and that this what gives me strength to go through all the extremely tough problems I seem to have had for the past 6 years. From being homeless and needing to go home with my tail between my legs to losing everything I've had and starting all over again to here paying my bills and having different problems that I'm fighting against daily, I've been through so much and when I found u and started using my extra time to listen to these I feel stronger and more at peace, I also have learnt so much. I just love it. I'm making dinner now and I just finished this one while I was busy cooking (didn't get to finish it) thank u and bless u
God is with you in every step. I know he is so proud of you. You are not alone
It's 5:45 am and this sermon is really blessing and encouraging me. Thank you

GOD IS NOT AGAINST ME BUT HE’S IN IT WITH ME WORKING THROUGH ME FIGHTING FOR ME!
God is not against me. He’s in it with me, working through me, fighting for me. Thank you so much Steve. It occurred to me today that God’s attitude towards us is in the word “come” he’s always leaving his arms open and doors open always…saying come. Come no matter what. Come as you are. You are always welcome. What a Good God we serve!!
I can't believe that I missed the prayer event in Toronto as i live in Waterloo only 2 hrs away and I love listening to you on here and thank you to God Jesus and all the followers of the voice of truth and keep preaching the words of God and Jesus and keep building the church your music and all the help you give us ..❤❤❤

Do not worry about letting people down Worry about not letting God Down!!! Amen
This is awesome, I have been battling with weight loss and eating right, and getting back into the gym. These things are in need of change, but the focus is to change the voice I listen to when I see the condition I am in, and the voices that tell me, "You're going to fail again." I do feel discouraged, But I am changing that to I am not discouragment. God is not against me, He wants the best for me, Amen Y Amen
I went through something similar and I wanted to recommend “the sugar fast” by Wendy Speake. It’s a devotional focused on changing your mentality about food and focusing on Jesus as your source of comfort and “feasting” on the word of God. The book seriously changed my life. I start every year by doing the fast!
Me too..I hope you have seen results by now.n
Pastor Steven, I need that beautiful song! Sometimes doing the right thing can be lonely… and you question yourself. When are you bringing Elevation Nights to PUERTO RICO? There are beautiful places!!! Keep us in your prayers and thoughts🌻. May the Lord keep using you and your family to be his voice and hands🙏🏼🙏🏽
Uncle buck here❤😊

Thank you Pastor Steven for obeying the Holy Spirit to preach this message...I needed this so much today🙏🏼
God is not against me, but He is IN it with me, working through me, fighting for me.🙌🏾
Open my heart, O Lord, to believers of all types. I ask that You help me to be blind to the social constructs that rule so much of our socio-economic decisions today. Help me to love blindly, as You do, for You do not judge based on appearances but based on actions. Forgive me also, dear Lord, for my actions do not justify my lofty expectations. Everyday I aim to serve You better, starting today. Amen.
Search me, O God, and know my heart; Try me, and know my anxieties; And see if there is any wicked way in me, And lead me in the way everlasting.
Psalms 139:23-24 NKJV
I was in such a mood this morning but hearing this filled me with joy; “God is not against me! but he’s in it with me, working through me, fighting for me” 🥹😭
The song is stuck in my head, it’s playing over and over. I love it! 🙏🏽
God is not against me 🎶💯
Said it so well...some of you been discouraged but track it back..🥲
I was a slave to addiction,and all kinds of wild living. Basically a mental prison , that I couldn’t seem to shake for 12 years. I asked God to help me find a way out of pain and into more. The last year and a half , I’ve seen SOOO a much change, growth, maturity in myself. From my job, to my home, my car, and that’s just the physical things. God allowed me to produce fruit,in relationships, and professionally.
Amen. I am taking the Medical Technology licensure exam next week. May I ask this community to include me in your prayers? 🥰💛 Also, I would like to ask what is the title of the song that was sung in the last part?
