This church is helping me get my WHOLE life together. I am...so moved by every sermon.
Its awesome you say that because it turned my life around listening to his sermons. I listen everyday. I was strung out in rock bottom and and he popped up on you tube and i haven't stopped watching and listening. I love everything he talks about
Amen, same here.
I listen to him every morning. He really motivates me to desire to be better.
That nothing but God working in your life
Blessings come to those whom seek...
"Peace is not the absence of problems, it is the presence of Christ to enable you to walk in it." 👐
amen !x
That quote hit me so hard dude..
🙏Amen
I’ve been dealing with so much depression, to the point of suicidal thinking, and so much emotional pain it became physical.
I felt the heaviness in my chest, and it felt like I was emotionally bleeding out. But HE STEPPED INTO my moment and revealed to me that the reason I was having such a hard time trusting him through my circumstance is because I’ve been under such heavy attack from the enemy, and somewhere along the line, forgot that God is good, because the enemy deceived me into believing that God sent me into this season to make me grow.
I began to attach valor to my victim mentality, thinking it was there to produce something good. And though that is true, GOD DID NOT SEND IT, but He’s gonna use it...
This message is my “Christmas in July”
Oh the peace, in KNOWING He is GOOD. He will not harm me. He has a plan for me to bring me a hope and a future.
Breanna Echols I hope you are in a better place I pray that you continue to be strengthened by the good lord. My boyfriend I was 3 years that I lived with stopped answering mu calls last week while I was visiting my mom! I have been trying to hold it together because everyday the pain feels worse but I believe Jesus goes before me and he knows of Better days for me. I have never went to church and I fight depression and anxiety everyday especially missing my ex but I believe gods plan for me.
I pray that you are healed and feeling so much peace in Jesus name!
You have no idea how much reading your messages helped me. I’ve been under heavy attack as well. Word for word what you said is exactly what I am going through. Thank you for your vulnerability. I pray God blesses you more and more, He certainly is using you ❤️
This was so crucified all for me to read - thank you!!! 💛
Praying, we are in this together
Now i understand when God says I will never leave you, I will never forsake you, I will be with you through it all
I went to jail for the first time in my life recently. Eye opening experience. I'll never take my freedom and life for granted again. Thanking God for my peace and freedom this holiday. God never left me even in my darkest hour. Praise Jesus!
So inspiring. Thanks for sharing those word to us.
@@MrAllysonn you're welcome! I think some people who think their life is bad, try taking all of the personal belongings out of your room including bed, sleep on the floor for two days with lights on 24/7 and not be able to leave or go where you please, may put our lives into greater perspective. Maybe some of us parents need to do this to our kids. I think everyone should experience this at least once in their lives. Let us never take our freedom or lives for granted 🙏💜
@@mojorising1 Experience teach. And bring changed. I'll make sure to never take for granted anything.
Morgan Whiteley I remember my first time. God is with us. He is slow to anger.
I will thank you my friend brother from another mother, it was the answer i need it to hear, wake up call, time to work
My wife is at your church today in North Carolina... Give her the strength she needs a new father open her eyes too this new life please father open my eyes from where I am give us the strength for one another and to give everything to you Lord to help us to guide us to make us better and you are eyes father in Jesus name I pray Amen
What I love about Christmas is that almost every one celebrates Jesus birthday. Even if they don't realize.
"Calendar isn't gonna fix any chaos in your life. The same dude you let steal your peace all last year is gonna be standing right there into your window with a crowbar in 2019".
This quote made my day... God bless you Pastor Furtick definitely you are a God's instrument.
Thanks for that.
Amen 🙏
This !!!
That seems true. Interested in what you have to say... 7604863030
"Whatever you identify as your source of stress is where you are seeking your peace"
“Whatever you identify as your source of stress is where you are seeking your peace”
Love it !!
That's so deep
P.S - the way he asked them to be quiet until he finished...😂 #Yessir #Olskool
Lol...i thought the same thing😂😂 I actually had to rewind it just to be sure i wasnt hearing things like “daaannggg...did he just check someone? Tell em pastor!”
I was thinking the same thing!!
I just heard my youtube pastor Steven Furtick say, ''NAIROBI, STOP WAITING FOR PEACE INSTEAD WALK IN IT''... KENYA on the map, my mothercountry... big up pastor
Thank you so much for this message Pastor Steven. I have been struggling with anxiety and depression, but I know that the Prince of Peace is with me to overcome it.
“Peace I leave with you, My peace I give to you; not as the world gives do I give to you. Let not your heart be troubled, neither let it be afraid.”
John 14:27
Stay strong, you can get through it! May the Lord be with you David. Merry Christmas.
David may God be with you I know all to well ANXIETY which makes you feel like your losing your mind or the battle depression negative thoughts FEAR worry it's a horrible feeling but for whatever reason god will see us through this storm that I am going through also we have to keep praying all day every day stay well and blessed you are not alone my friend🙏🤗 God has us
much love to you man!
Were in this together!
@Pro Seer just stick to your guns bro! I'm going through something similar!
"God has already done everything that needed to be done for you to experience PEACE right now" [AMEN right there!] #PEACENOW
I want a peace the world didn’t give and the world can’t take away. Amen!
Amen!!!!!!!!!!
Amen!!!
“It’s impossible to experience peace when you’re expecting perfection”
"The only thing required for you to receive the peace of God is to lose your pride, and accept it in the place of your weakness. The peace of God is not the absence of problems."
“And now I’m missing peace... ‘cause all I can see is the pieces I’m missing.” 🔥
The enemy of my peace is my insistence on perfection
Absolutely.
I watched this teaching for the 1st time today, 3/26/2021. WOW WOW WOW!! What a powerful, on time message (more than 2 years after it was spoken). I started a positive affirmations journal a few days ago to remind me of who He is and who I am in Him and of His good plan for me. I always date and timestamp my journal and today's entry reads, "I will have peace in the process!!!" I wrote today's date and the time of my journal entry. The time was 12:34 and I heard Him say, "The process is step by step...1 2 3 4 (12:34)." HIS TIMING IS SOOOOO PERFECT. HALLELUYAH!!
I gave my heart to Jesus he is my Lord and savior...Amen!!!
Sometimes when I start watching this I can't turn it off .
My hand is up, I just received Jesus
This is the third time the Holy Spirit is talking to me about peace.
And did he just mention Nairobi 26:28???
#madlovefromKenya
I know... Nairobi Kenya ... I always say Pastor Furtick is my dad and he doesn't even know he is :).
'The enemy of your peace is the insistence on perfection'
You bless me so much!!!
I am from Ghana
"It's impossible to experience peace when you're expecting perfection." Yes God! I love this. I needed this message. My whole understanding is changed.
I've had much more peace since I stay away from toxic so I like the message but I also think it does matter Bad Company corrupts good character
I love Jesus, and I am so blessed that He lead me to Elevation Church every sermon is on point and there is always something powerful I get out of each sermon. Love and prayers for Elevation Church and Pastor Steven Furtick and Holly and his family God bless you more and more. God is using you both to speak to me and my relationship with Jesus is strengthing everyday💙💙
What causes us Christians to still battle depression and anxiety yet peace was given to us freely is
-failure to make it right with God, David was depressed full of anxiety until he repented
-failure to listen to the Spirit of God which is our Helper to lead us through it
-failure to learn to meditate on the word of God that can help us to renew our minds.
-failure to forgive yourself and others always keeping yourself in pain of past.
-failure to understand the spiritual realms.
Once you figure out those your joy will never fall nomatter the circumstances either being disappointed, betrayed, challenged, cheated, you will know that those things are meant to happen to build your faith and to help produce the fruits of Holy Spirit within by keeping loving and to be kind to those who caused that situations into your life but knowing we wrestle not by blood and fresh but spirits, you can only come to that always letting yourself meditate. Once the situation occurs when it finds your mind, spirit into word you will overcome with right response about the circumstances. One thing missing is churches they don't teach people spiritual world yet it's cause of pain, failure, depression etc...most it's all about encouraging and motivation speeches hence letting people fight wrong battles
Amen and I have been battling anxiety depression panic attacks etc I'm praying reading the word but still going through the storm sometimes I feel as if I'm praying wrong or god doesn't hear me because I'm still suffering I'm trying to build my faith as well it's a struggle and all I want is my mind back and peace 🙏
@@shanda7721 sorry dear depression is caused by spirit of worrying. I was once there but these verses helped proverbs 3:6-6 and philippians 4:6-7 and learn to meditate in them it once you feel that spirit of depression always say it to yourself until the word works in your life.
Anxiety is caused by fear, always say to yourself you're not slave of fear, sin, pain of past, worry, failure, sickness and disease but you're child of God wonderful made in God's image whose will is for me to always be joyful and peaceful nomatter how challenging my life maybe because He promised me even when am in fire, depth of waters, troubles He will be with me and now is with me because He told me behold have overcome anything that's against my joy and peace in this world. And always say this in your mind, soul and even loud if you can every time and everyday. O'Holy Spirit renewed my mind, spirit and body to feel the joy that Jesus Christ promised to me. O'Holy Spirit take more of me and give me more of Jesus Christ, take more of my pain, worry, fear, anger, hate, depression, anxiety and give more of love, Joy, peace, humble, gentleness, self control as You make me channel of light where there's darkness, channel of love where's hate, channel of forgiveness where am wronged, channel of kindness where there's need in people's lives. Always say those words to yourself and also read psalms 119 it will help you see how meditating on the word of God is so powerful than even praying because mediation brings revelation and revelation brings healing, deliverance and restoration because meditating is like speaking will of God into Your life directly and it works to manifest the power of the word and once your spirit learn to meditate whatever situation that occurs in your life it will find sword in your heart so that your joy can't fall nomatter how hard, difficult the situation might seems to be, you always say Lord told us He won't test us beyond our strength my joy don't fall nomatter the situation I am in I know it's for me to build my faith in Lord and if it's coming from enemy side I rebuke it in Jesus Christ and then start to command with authority and power Jesus Christ gave to change the situation. That's how my life has been full of joy and peace even when I get disappointed, betrayed etc... I my get sad, anger but I don't allow it to last for mins, i say to myself Lord You said to me it's ok to get angry but not sin am so angry, sad, disappointed etc.. about this situation or person but I take power to forgive because I too need your forgiveness and thanks You have tested me but let my joy not fall because You said to me the peace You give the world doesn't give it, it's the world and it's people that have disappointed and got me angry yet am not of the world there and than I feel Victorious over the situation and my joy just be filled even more. Just learn to use the word of God by also renewing your mind into Christ you will be set free am no longer slave of anxiety and depression yet I once was just thinking of suicide thinking am unworthy and always angry with people and circumstances but all of that are now history to Glorify Lord.
@@ritahkiziito6335 omg thank you so much this brings tears to my eyes this storm is so hard to shake. It seems and then this anxiety makes you feel like your gonna loose your mind it's horrible but thank you so much for reaching out and it's a blessing what god has done for you and I truly appreciate it and I will start reading these verses now thank you and God bless you always
Pastor Furtick you ain’t slick... you were reading my mind when you wrote this. So good
PF_ Sports He did not write this they are from the Bible
Lil Jit true, I was just makin the point that this really helped me out. 😬
PF_Sports amen! Thank God for an on time Word for you
Willing Vessel yes! So good
Dont wait for it, walk in it. I too struggle with needing things to be perfect, but each day I will make the decision to walk in God's peace even when it comes in pieces. Not waiting for things to be perfect to claim my peace. AMEN
It’s my prayer that for everyone reading this that God gives you the peace where you need it the most. Amen 🙏🏾
Amen Emmanuel! 🙏 ^EC Team
This was such a great message. My husband and I listened to it while on our way to our Celebrate Recovery step-studies, last night. Let me tell you--what an anointed message it is!
I had to share it with all the ladies in my group. My husband sent it to the group leader of his.
Thank you Pastor Steven!

I first heard you preach while I was in drug rehab for the last two years I've not been able to sit and watch anything much less a church program. You have given me faith again that with all faith our lives can change.
The 468 people that Didn't Like really need to search their Hearts and ask themselves exactly what path are they on to their own path of Peace? Pastor Steven spreads messages of Hope, Love, Peace and Joy, to people all over the world, and in Apostle Paul's own words
"What does it matter?"
Who or how the message is spread, but that indeed, the word of Christ is spread to all the world, Praise the Lord🙏 Thanks Be to God💫🥳👍🤟👏👏👏👏👏👏👏Peace to all & may God Bless you in your love and kindness you show to others💝
This is a Rhema word for sure. Nairobi suffered a terrorist attack yesterday and I received some personal heartbreaking news. But the peace that surpasses human understanding will guard our hearts and minds. Amen.
I'M WALKING IN IT HERE IN TEXAS!!!
I am learning new revelations in every sermon. I am so much blessed with every preaching. Thanks Pastor Steve!!
Never going to get peace trying be perfect !!! Whew
I se GOD not only waiting to meet me with his most beautiful grace. But he is waiting to meet me making the choices to be most safe within his beauty.
Help me, O God, to stop measuring my worth by whether my loved ones accept me or forgive me---help me to measure myself by who You say I am and by Your forgiveness and acceptance of me in Your Beloved Son, Jesus Christ. May I walk in the peace of Your Truth. In His name I pray. Amen
AMEN AMEN 💖💖💖💖💖💖💖
Praise God for using his vessels like Pastor Steven to be a shepherd to us all
When im weak, HE'S STRONG IN AND THROUGH ME!!!! Thank you Jesus💗
HERE COMES HEAVEN 🙏🙏🙇🦾💯🙌⚓
Best Christmas message ever! My peace cannot be on people on situations and on places. My peace is from God the Prince of Peace!
Praise God who leads us on the path of peace.
Trust me, if you're in the dead of night, needing rescue, only Jesus can solve.
And it's true. He's in it
My family just lost everything in Hurricane Helene. Please pray for us. I know God is good. He promised He would see me through this!
Some PEACE PLEASE... giving it to God.. all of it this is bigger than me please before I law what I prayed so hard and God has blessed me with my with more time with my children .. and I am SO thankful and now the rest of my LIFE is falling apart. I'm giving it all to God #Thankful# and free FROM me Im giving this to MY FATHER! 💕
Hi I just put up a post and it vanished. I go to a little church in my hometown but by far this is where I get fed. I felt led to give a certain amount last week and the breakthrough was astounding. Not just financially but spiritually speaking it was a confirmation that I was on the right road on getting fed here and then going to church and giving out of that instead of sitting there and just receiving. Thank You Pastor Steven and Holly for reaching out to those of us who are elsewhere but stuck spiritually.
Shorty Magee Amen!
Pray for my marriage
I wish I could like this video a thousand times, my Lord this is good word!!!!!!!!!!!!
jesus loves you!
God bless you all in Jesus name
It's so amazing how God leads to answers you've been seeking.
Lately, I've been really battling with peace in my life. Thank you Lord for Pastor Furtick and this very Sermon. I've realized that I can't just wait for that one perfect day or time when everything is gonna be fine and perfect to get me the "peace" I seek. It's actually hidden in my everyday struggle and hurdles and it's so amazing to learn that once I approach towards it with Jesus as my guide, i'll find peace everyday, in every little struggle i'll learn to find peace. Thank you Jesus the Prince of Peace. Amen. 💌
God is a faithful God
Best way to end the year/ start the year.
Peace is truly a gift from God
I'm gonna walk in it because I am Not alone. Jesus is with me through the process of me becoming everything God created me to be. Thank you Lord for using Pastor Furtick as a vessel.
This message just aged like fine wine. Who would have known 2020 was the year I would stumble upon this, a time when chaos is plentiful and peace is nonexistent. For anyone waiting for 2020 to end so that corona is finally over remember, the calendar will not change anything. It's time to walk in peace while in 2020 and into 2021. That's our path OF peace. Be blessed y'all.
Pastor you said Nairobi!!I am from Kenya!! Amen Amen Amen!! Stop waiting and start walking in peace
Glory be to the King of Kings. Jesus Christ was Born and I'm truly Thankful 😘 !!
I love that God's word is timeless and that a word given to me today was planned over 2 years ago when first preached by you and thought about when the Father sent His perfect Son to die for my fruitless desire to be perfect. He has my surrender today and He indeed traded it for the wisdom revealed by you Pastor to bring strength by the power of Gods word and His presence into my weakness. Thank you for your willingness and obedience to pursue God with such passion and deliberate execution. God blessings to you Sir!
A word for right now during this quarantine and a time of uncertainty. That we can still have the peace of Christ
It's impossible to experience peace in face of perfection. Amen pastor Steven's you are a blessing! merry Christmas !
God is using your messages to speak to and grow me in so many ways. I watch online and am part of the efam. Each week I think “this is the best message I’ve ever heard” yet somehow the following week I think “no this is the best message” They are all so clearly spirit lead and always speak to me. Thank you so much for allowing God to speak through you and sharing His message! I know it takes many people to make this church what it is and I thank God for each persons role in making it what it is and I love how aware everyone there seems to be of that as well. I pray someday I’m able to visit in person. I truly just can’t say thank you enough! Gods doing amazing things through Elevation and I’m so excited to see what all is in the future of the church.
"All that is required to receive the peace of God is to lose your pride"
I watch and I don't care about the bundles.. am getting blessed...am happy to hear it him mention my capital Nairobi....🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣
I lost my mom in 2010 and i can truly say through this message i have a peace that i so long for. Thank you!
Wow in reference to the kids. So timely! "I've learned to take my peace in pieces." Amen
Thank you for your videos. I have an hour and a half commute to Charlotte every day and I have been listening to your videos while I drive every single morning and evening. You don’t know how much it is helping me. Thank you to you and your family
Watching from Marysville Ohio. I dont know where i would be without your sermons pastor Furtick.
God bless you! I share God through you. I've been fighting cancer and liver disease. You won't believe how great I feel 2day. I'm living GOD'S favor. He's given me peace and healing. Hallelujah, praise God, in His holy hands, Jesus and the Holy Spirit, amen
Merry Christmas from El Salvador
Alex Ponce merry Christmas from the states to yours!
im salvadoreno but i live in cali
Customer
My mom love this stuff
just when I need peace is when I receive the message that it's not in the future that I want to receive it, but that I'm already in it. If I just gather the pieces of peace that I have right now then eventually I'll have a masterpiece of the peace that I seek. God bless this ministry.
Only listening to this message today 11/1/19, what a powerful message this is on peace. Too many of us want people to change or situations to change before we feel better. Not anymore, now I understand the peace that surpass all human understanding. I am walking on the path to peace. Thank you Pastor Steven, I came across one of your sermons in 2015 and I have never looked back, God uses you in my life in a great way
Thank you Pastor Steve The Lord Always Speaks to me through every Sermon i listen to you Preach. Thank you Holy Spirit. THANK YOU!!!
jesus loves you!
Don’t need people to change for me to have peace. God gives me peace
I needed to hear this as I have been seated waiting for peace, focusing on all the pieces missing in my life that I think will make me happy and give me a peaceful life. But God.......knew I need this WORD. Thank you Elevation Church.
Yes Nairobi walking in it. The spirit of God is in you, Thank you for this Message
Thanks pastor Furtick
I’m an Enneagram 1 too, brother. I feel ya 😂
Experiencing peace is allowing God to be with you at all times, both good and bad. Peace is not a destination. Peace is a state of being. “Be still and know that I am”
HERE COMES HEAVEN, WATCH OUT HERE IT COMES!
This is one of the best sermons you're ever preached!
It’s the presence of Christ that will enable me to walk in peace
Walking in it or pray in it. Grateful for your anointing Pastor Steven Furtick 🙏 🙌. Needes this message today. Thank your God's message for me today. Needed the reminder.
Thank you for your kind words Jeannette! 🙌🧡
When I am weak, therefore, I am strong. ❤️
I heard you Pastor Steve, am walking in it, am not waiting for it! All the way from Nairobi!
Get my balance back and fix my eyes on Jesus. I am getting my balance back and my eyes are on Jesus
God will guide my path through peace .Amen
God, I pray that in 2019, you open the hearts and bring the people who are lost, confused, depressed, anxious and cry their hearts out at night out there into your comfort and into listening to your words from Paster Steven. I was one of those people. For a year of listening to every sermon on UA-cam from your words through Paster Furtick, I am now a changed person. I had forgiven, became a better mom to my 5 kids and a best friend to the man I hated the most in my life. The pain has been lifted of my shoulders. My heart is full of love, I quit drinking for over a year because of you my Heavenly Father, your love is endless.
My abusive husband of 25 years has been forgiven and the people I used to run away from because of my shame, pride, and guilty feelings...are now my friends. I am a witness of my own life changing through becoming a new Christian.
May the Lord keeps opening my heart and my mind into new learning and let me pass down your grace to others that are in pain great pain as I was in my past 30 years. I’m so thankful for my Paster Steven Furtick and his wonderful family members. Everything through Elevation Church has changed and saved my life. Many blessings in the New Years to come! I pray and hope one day I can thank this wonderful man for his greatest effort and purest heart in preaching to heal those that are suicidal, hurt, depressed, and lost in person. This was my greatest battle in my life. This is the greatest gift, my blessings.
PASTOR Steven Furtnick I was just sharing this with my cousin exact word for word but better explained. God bless you from NAIROBI, KENYA 🇰🇪
Wow this just made me cry my eyes out, I needed this exact sermon so bad, it gave me so much clarity.
Dear ladies we need men washing us with the word, remember you want a man that loves God.
I did my Rock and god to give my salivating
I Thank our Abba Father for giving the world someone like you...
God bless you
I go prayer for my. GM friend
I need God’s peace so bad
I grew up with my mother teaching me about Jesus but with pastor Steve everything is clearer then before I’ve grown so deep in Jesus now that I’m a lot better then I was before
So thank you pastor Steve for being the vessel god chose you to be for everyone else ❤️
He is the place of my peace in the storm. He is the reason I have calm in the chaos. He is the One who brought me through the dark. My strength lies in Him and His peace lies within me
