During this quarantine, I realized how controlling and judgmental I can be. God wanted me to face myself. Although it’s hard, I’m thankful that he cares enough to shape and mold me for his purpose.
The devil thought he had Jesus right where he wanted Him. But little did he know that it was a setup!!!! The tight places aren’t meant to kill you, they are meant to kill your doubt and insecurities and increase your faith and dependence of God!!!
The GREATEST storm of my life, has become the BIGGEST blessing of my life. I struggled for YEARS, crying my poor heart out, not understanding and wanting out. Little did I know, this very thing was necessary, was critical and would play a MAJOR part in my life 😭. I may feel as if I suffered for WAYYY too long, but God showed up right on time. 🙌🏽🙏🏽
I’m in that SAME position right now omg I would cry out to God and freak out and feel as if maybe I did something wrong or maybe I miss heard him but THIS IS ALL A SET UP😭😩🙏🏽
@@TheKianaRoe Yes love, trust the process, please trust the process. When I say years, I mean YEARS I’ve been in my trial and NEVER understood why and just wanted OUT. I would always repent, feeling as if I’ve done wrong or wasn’t just understanding what was going on. We must understand that God NEVER want for us to just suffer, he loves us SOOOOOO MUCH, but we have to learn to let go and trust him NOOOOO matter how it feels. Keep crying out love, but trust and know that God knows best, even when we don’t understand. Remain faith and he’ll see you thru in due time. 💕
Amen And if it feels like nothings going on its because GOD is working on it , so you won't have to ever need another job and not just a job but other needs in your life. GOD BLESS YOU 😇
Don't trust Men, the heart is deceitful, struggle to have everlasting life With God, sadness/gladness NOW is temporary, strive in gods truth, as scripturally instructed, in this present world You Will have Trouble, but trust in Jesus (Not Men)
Been in the storm for several years, cry out to Him why me, I was faithful and never left you, why you left me in the time of my needs, but He was right beside me, He wanted me go to storm to come out with His victory, I love you Lord, you are my hope and everything, nothing can separate us.
I always watches you and i live in Rwanda. I love this channel and i wish God would uplift you according to his will and he woul full fill his purpose in you.May God bless you. Jane
It’s amazing how as Christ followers we become so perplexed when we struggle. I think why me? Why I am going through this? I am trying to live a holy life and it seems as if everyone is doing fine but me. It is just a reminder God wants to purify, strengthen, and mature us through trial. This is when our faith can actually be tested and grow. Every time we struggle He is producing a blessing on the other side!! Great message!!!
Whatever you’re going through right now could be a setup. Learn how God sometimes sets up your struggles for a greater purpose Amen i do believe THANK YOU JESUS
Blessed jernz I really know and believe this in my heart but sometimes my human mind doesn’t understand it, it feels like it can’t anymore and when is it gonna end to feel some kind of relief
Sitting in the hospital room with my 57 year old mother who had a massive left brain stroke, two weeks ago...I needed this message...Thank you for boldly proclaiming the One who teaches us how to suffer humbly
Lord, cover them with your peace and love! Bring healing to her body and glory to your Name! We trust you in the struggle, the process, the dark hour. All praise to you, Lord!
Nicolle Jones Oh Nicolle, Blessings and miracles to your family ,especially your mother. I will pray for y'all. I can't imagine life without my mother in it! Love and Blessings!!
I'm right there, nothing could destroy me but then came drug addiction at 26 years old, why? How? I had done so good, been a believer since a kid, now I'm clean and struggle everyday to understand why but it's not about that, it's about continue to believe I have a purpose and I had to go through this, which is the worse thing that could ever happen to me. I'll be 32 soon and I believe this time I'm staying sober for good in the name of Jesus. I pray for you and all those souls still suffering. -Aileen Monge I need all the prayers 🙏
Take credit yourself, you are winning the struggle vs drug addiction, you may have a strong support network, but YOU are winning the battle, believe in YOURSELF. Addiction is a mental illness, your mental illness. It's not a test or a punishment, it's brain chemistry. YOU will beat it.
Romans 5:3-4 Not only so, but we also glory in our sufferings, because we know that suffering produces perseverance; perseverance, character; and character, hope. My current storm has been the greatest blessing in my life. It is changing me into a stronger and wiser person. Thank you for uplifting teaching, may God continue using you to relay his message.
Amen, I can really relate…… The GREATEST storm of my life, has become the BIGGEST blessing of my life. I struggled for YEARS, crying my poor heart out, not understanding and wanting out. Little did I know, this very thing was necessary, was critical and would play a MAJOR part in my life 😭. I may feel as if I suffered for WAYYY too long, but God showed up right on time. 🙌🏽🙏🏽
I just walked away for a job I already left last yr an went back! I don't know what I'm suppose to be doing but in my hear it's not being a nurse! Been praying to put me into another career . Or guide me to my joy! God bless those that love being a nurse, after 25 yrs I am tired, fed up, sad, and broken. Help me find my joy GOD
God bless you and your family Pastor Steven ...my 6 year old daughter and I pray almost every night for your well been and your families ...from Los Angeles...
Talk about hearing something I needed right on time!? How can Pastor Steven be soooo anointed that I can literally feel the Holy Ghost come right through my phone and enter my soul!! I'VE been so THIRSTY!!! GOOD GOD so thirsty!!! I've been so bitter about my life and became emotionless, just numb. Sometimes I want to just cry and let it all go. Myy tears dried up years ago. I've just been wondering "Will today be my end?", "What is my purpose?" This powerful message y'all, I could see Pastor Steven get a bit teary eyed when he said he just wanted to give us some water, so we didn't have to keep searching!! And it touched me so much to see the love and care for his Church that he teared up! Sooo, of course I start to choke up and get teary-eyed. Praise God ,I've been sent to a place where there is care, and hope, and love, and acceptance, cause I haven't felt these things in years and years!!!! Why do my teary eyes excite me!! Because I know God's setting me up to let go, let go of shame, regret, embarrassment, loneliness. I've only been visiting Elevation for a few months, knowing and waiting for my heart and soul to open up and receive the blessing and leave the past with God! something... Pastor Steven this was for me, I'm gonna be greedy and claim it!! 🤗 Praise God the breakthrough has been in the works, I've obeyed God, and today I got exactly the validation I needed!! Some of you old time Independent Baptist folks might know this song and its what just came to my mind!! € Itssss's real, Itsss's real, ....Ohhhh,I know It's real, Praise God, the doubts are settled, and I knoooow, Yes Iiii knooow, ittss real€ Link to song ua-cam.com/video/ZZE70A7N7Og/v-deo.html
Tammy Leigh Ferguson Tammy ,Your comment blessed me so much! I love how God shows himself to us, and answers prayer sometimes in the most creative ways!! He's such a faithful God!!
Tammy Leigh Ferguson I'm so glad you enjoyed the song. If you have never heard it before, I discovered while searching for it that it must have been produced in the 50s or 60s. There were about five different groups who had released the song and they were African-American artist who made unique renditions and what blessing are they!!!! I have loved the song for almost 30 yrs myself. My Dad is Independent Baptist and this family would come and sing their songs, The husband and wife and their daughter would play the keyword and didnt even need to look at the keyboard she was so blessed. And could she sing! Well by the time the third verse comes around and the words describe salvation the church members are shouting and the women were screaming so loud ,you couldn't even hear the music!! 🤣🤣🤣 What a blessing! I'll send you a few links from the original recordings. They blessed me so much Tammy! Blessings and may ALL Humans work towards seeing one another as fellow humans first. May we accept that borders never have, and never will exist! For how can we own God's beautiful artwork which has NEVER been for sale! And though God provided countless resources, which we use to make our lives more comfortable. It is for everyone, and may we begin tearing DOWN walls instead of putting UP more!! Remind us not to worry about anything. For if we believe Jesus holds us in his hands, it is blasphemy to think that He hasn't already written out each precious second he has so graciously afforded us. Lastly and most importantly may we tell the Good News that Salvation is FREE and offered to the World. And that Jesus has already paid the price for us all to be forgiven. You were scorned and beaten and died on a cross, so that every man woman and child can go to Heaven and live together in Paradise with Thee Lord. Amen Amen and Amen!!!
My struggles are setup but Jesus that lives inside me always MAKES A WAY ALWAYS MAKE ME OVERCOME MY ANXIETY THANK YOU LORD JESUS HAN WON WE ARE PROTECTED UNDER HIS WINGS IN JESUS NAME
I feel so blessed coming across Pastor Steven. I've been praying for God to help me understand His history, and to truly understand the bible and the history of the teachings in the bible and God began leading me to various videos, and recently stumbled onto Pastor Furnick and every sermon I feel like God is talking to me through old sermons (and new) of pastor Steven. I've always had a relationship with God, but have always had problems focusing and truly understanding the bible like the TRUE history that it is. 🙋♀️💞 praise Jesus and bless pastor Steven ✌
Kate Chiasson its cool to know the bible, but more importantly is the relationship with jesus Christ. Talk to him, just talk like a friend. Ask for understanding of him, theres more value in knowing Christ than knowing the bible
My struggle has been a setup. Seeing all these things I’ve went thru in life was mostly self caused. But I’m great full for the struggle. Cause I never gave up. It’s always made me so much stronger in the end. Asking for prayers today I have a trial I am going thru today and need prayer and guidance.
Amen! I've been sent sermon after sermon and Our Father has my attention. My heart. My faith and my worries. He told me to give all my sorrows to Him and put joy back in my heart. And I believe I have been set free! Amen!
I don't like ending my day without listening to pastor Furtick. May God bless you sir. Your messages are very uplifting. I wonder what kind of a preacher I am going to be. I know God has a plan.
Wow... Pastor Steven furtick what a powerful message yes things happen in all our life that we don't understand but one thing i know that God is always here for us believe and trust in him glory to God.
Romans 8:28 "And we know that all things work together for good to them that love God, to them who are the called according to his purpose." GOD BLESS Ps.Steven
He is a prophet among other things and he is so addictive with the sermons he has and the way he addresses serious issues while givingbthe holy ghost a new meaning.... He is an inspiring person to say the least..... He made me find my faith after 15 years of termoil when i gave up on god.....Thanks Steven
My name is Teresa Murphy from sanford florida. I awake every morning to listen an learn about God an the bible. I struggle everyday with my flesh, but each day i feel deliverance threw how you deliver the heavenly anointed word. Thankyou😚you are loved pastor
Jesus ! Guide me in your good ways . I’m lost and struggling in life from outside and within . I want to be happy but I’m not able to . I’m just soo lost in life
Pastor Steve, I feel as though I've been wandering in the forgotten deserts for some time now. Crying out to God to help me find my way back. Your message of Your struggle is a setup has encouraged me to keep going forward. Thank you from the bottom of my heart.
This is Thomas Edward Ratliff Junior. Have felt trapped so much in my life. Amen to this all the way really. Great one gave you to preach to us. Amen. Love it
I'm going through a breakup I can hardly sleep at nights ,but I know God did this to me because my focus was on my spouse , so God had to step in ,at first I was sad because I wanted to know where is God n why did he forsake me after he said he's always gonna be there for me , I felt like giving up so much because God knows I loved him so much (my spouse)we were planning our wedding , one day he said it's over between us after speaking to me the night before saying how much he loves me, I believe it's a setup, God is going to use this for my testimony he knows my focus wasn't on him. Thank you Lord ...I pray this person still be my husband in Jesus name
I really needed to hear that, I left college last year and no matter how many applications I sent or called for an interview I've not gotten through....i know i have a purpose I know I will be successful...thank you so much Lord
@@run-zr8ek I got a job as a passenger service agent and I have resigned because I'm starting nursing school in January... Funny how life is and how faithful God is
My struggle is a set up!!! Thank you Pastor Steven for this sermon I REALLY NEEDED THIS sermon. Thank you Father God for my struggles, now I know that my struggles are a set up
Oh yeah...my father here I'm lord...have your way and I'm ready to do whatever you tell me to...jesus..all I need is you my redeemer 🤲🤲thank you for blessing me always pr Steven..many blessings to you n entire family
I have heard this before and was blessed by it, but at a lower time tonight and needed a godly rope to cling to. Praise the Lord for leading me here again.
Been in the storm for several years, cry out to Him why me, I was faithful and never left you, why you left me in the time of my needs, but He was right beside me, He wanted me go to storm to come out with His victory, I love you Lord, you are my hope and everything, nothing can separate us.
Pray for me, I wife was unfaithful twice this year, and destroyed my life, now I’m homless in a van, please pray for me, I feel like giving up, please pray for me
You got this man... keep fighting.... im going through something similar with infidelity... use this pain to lock in and build yourself back up ... but tbis time make sure your bigger and better
Thank you Jesus for allowing the parenthesis to be just a portion of my story. Help me put into action what you've set as examples to us, that I may actively live out what you've imprinted on my heart. Help me to forgive my enemies as you've forgiven me, to turn the other cheek, to give forgiveness as many times as it requires, to show people the love you have for us. I see now my parenthesis was required so you could bring others to know you thru me. How lucky I am to have gone thru these struggles. I will count them as joyful blessings. I see that you are the only thing that can satisfy my thirst when I'm feeling defeated. You're words satisfy my soul and give me the strength to persevere, because you're perfecting me into the diamond you know I am. Thank you Lord.
Yesterday I was rewatching the let your lid off a little and I expressed my trying situation and said that I didn't know what or how to get out of my situation and cried out for a word or message to help me. I'm in my "parentheses". This word is my answer! Thank you so much! GOD is so good to me and I'm going to watch this repeatedly for the next couple of days! This is AMAZING 👍❤️👐👐❤️
I came here on today because I have loved someone so hard. Due to my passed relationships in my life starting with my parents to ex's. I have allowed myself to get stuck and been sticking so hard to "MY TRUTH" that don't exactly line up with "GOD'S TRUTH!" I prayedthis morning and this is where God guided me. I'm coming today to Give God his glory and praise!!!! I thank you Father for using Pastor Furtick to deliver your truth on today.
Love these messages from Steven Furtick, especially when I live a stressful life with my sister Michele and her husband Michael, who has been rude and disrespectful to me, just because of his job situation. This message brings hope in my life. Thanks for preaching Pastor Furtick.
I know you are hurting and just wanted to be heard. If your heart wasn’t full with pain, you wouldn’t be want to speak out. May God strengthen you and give you perspective to handle this situation. Pray for yourself, your dear sister and her beloved husband. God can do great things above what you can imagine or expect. hugs!
Thank u ! My dad was a preacher when I was growing up & I know now why I had lots of spiritual battles, actually I still do, but thank u again keep preaching the word of God and helping your brother & sister in Christ Amen
I love Pastor Steven’s preachings! They are very Biblical to begin with and deep and practical! Thank You Jesus for raising this Pastor in this time! We need more of these Pastors in our time! May God continue to bless you!!!
PASTOR STEVEN FURTICK IS A BLESSING I STOP GOING TO CHURCH WAS TIRED OF GETTING JUDGED BY WHAT I WEAR AND HOW I PRAYED IT WAS JUST TOO MUCH SO I STAYED HOME AND READ MY BIBLE. ONE DAY IM ON UTUBE WATCHING PASTOR T.D. JAKES AND HE INTRODUCED PASTOR STEVEN UP AND HIS WORDS HELP ME UNDERSTAND GOD MORE IT WAS THE WAY HE BROKE IT DOWN AND MADE YOU THINK, LAUGH AND TOUCHED YOUR HEART. I TELL EVERYONE ABOUT PASTOR STEVEN....
I was searching to hear a sermon;: so I typed in " the greatest preacher in the world today....the search shown this sermon first. I daily listen to Pastor Steven Furtick. so, I was eager to listen, and after hearing this short sermon, I agree that he is one of the best preacher in the world today, giving God all the glory and honor for giving him wisdom and knowledge of His Word, Praise God, hallelujah! Thank you Jesus! This sermon has been a blessing to my soul for the season I am experiencing in my life, right now, and I thank God for leading me here...thank you Pastor Furtick...I been struggling with this season I'm in, but now thank God I can see! 🙏🏼 🎶God is so good, God is so good to me.🎶
I'm thinking of how my partner & I have taken really unpleasant moments & let God spin them into gold. We have repeated some of the mistakes we grew up with, but God has always had Their hands on our hearts. Changing our hearts towards practicing emotional fidelity, launching community partnerships, etc. And the much quieter ways, like taking more of an interest in one another, not just what we want to show people on social media. Out of one of the darker experiences, he began a platform to showcase what sort of father he wants to be. God has helped me keep choosing him because God already knows who he really is. Which means They also know who I really am. Because discouragement & comparison can be all too easy to project onto him, I am grateful for our little lamps on this winding path & the blessings we haven't even lived through yet.
God doesn't need your money, He wants to be in your heart

The GREATEST storm of my life, has become the BIGGEST blessing of my life. I struggled for YEARS, crying my poor heart out, not understanding and wanting out. Little did I know, this very thing was necessary, was critical and would play a MAJOR part in my life 😭. I may feel as if I suffered for WAYYY too long, but God showed up right on time. 🙌🏽🙏🏽
I’m in that SAME position right now omg I would cry out to God and freak out and feel as if maybe I did something wrong or maybe I miss heard him but THIS IS ALL A SET UP😭😩🙏🏽

We must understand that God NEVER want for us to just suffer, he loves us SOOOOOO MUCH, but we have to learn to let go and trust him NOOOOO matter how it feels.

Thanks this touched my heart because I feel the same today
Don't trust Men, the heart is deceitful, struggle to have everlasting life With God, sadness/gladness NOW is temporary, strive in gods truth, as scripturally instructed, in this present world You Will have Trouble, but trust in Jesus (Not Men)
Been in the storm for several years, cry out to Him why me, I was faithful and never left you, why you left me in the time of my needs, but He was right beside me, He wanted me go to storm to come out with His victory, I love you Lord, you are my hope and everything, nothing can separate us.

Tammy Leigh Ferguson I'm so glad you enjoyed the song. If you have never heard it before, I discovered while searching for it that it must have been produced in the 50s or 60s.

It is for everyone, and may we begin tearing DOWN walls instead of putting UP more!!
Remind us not to worry about anything. For if we believe Jesus holds us in his hands, it is blasphemy to think that He hasn't already written out each precious second he has so graciously afforded us.
Lastly and most importantly
may we tell the Good News that Salvation is FREE and offered to the World. And that Jesus has already paid the price for us all to be forgiven.
You were scorned and beaten and died on a cross, so that every man woman and child can go to Heaven and live together in Paradise with Thee Lord. Amen Amen and Amen!!!

Kate Chiasson its cool to know the bible, but more importantly is the relationship with jesus Christ. Talk to him, just talk like a friend. Ask for understanding of him, theres more value in knowing Christ than knowing the bible
kaykate xo amen
Pastor Steven is an okay pastor, I would recommend Paul washer, Bob Jennings, or leonard ravenhill for true spiritual growth
We need Jesus every moment drink from this water and you will never thirst again.
Trusting you God! Definitely in a tight place.
@Official Steven Furtick - They're trying to mess up your name Pastor. I know this isn't you.
"Jesus deliver me i want my Joy back i want my Motivation back God i want a better life"--totally agree~
" GOD HAS A PURPOSE FOR EVERY THIRST IN YOUR LIFE!!!" Big AMEN this!
Amen
My struggle has been a setup. Seeing all these things I’ve went thru in life was mostly self caused. But I’m great full for the struggle. Cause I never gave up. It’s always made me so much stronger in the end. Asking for prayers today I have a trial I am going thru today and need prayer and guidance.
Just when I done been exhausted, I can't tire no more; I am told my struggles are a setup!
"IT'S A SETUP".
God bless you

Pastor Steve, I feel as though I've been wandering in the forgotten deserts for some time now. Crying out to God to help me find my way back. Your message of Your struggle is a setup has encouraged me to keep going forward. Thank you from the bottom of my heart.
This is Thomas Edward Ratliff Junior. Have felt trapped so much in my life. Amen to this all the way really. Great one gave you to preach to us. Amen. Love it
I'm going through a breakup I can hardly sleep at nights ,but I know God did this to me because my focus was on my spouse , so God had to step in ,at first I was sad because I wanted to know where is God n why did he forsake me after he said he's always gonna be there for me , I felt like giving up so much because God knows I loved him so much (my spouse)we were planning our wedding , one day he said it's over between us after speaking to me the night before saying how much he loves me, I believe it's a setup, God is going to use this for my testimony he knows my focus wasn't on him. Thank you Lord ...I pray this person still be my husband in Jesus name

vessel of God I am going through the same thing right now...
Am through the same with my husband
My prayers go out to the heart broken. Just know that Jesus is the Key.
It's wonderful how timeless the word of God.
Death: "You're trapped in here with me Jesus"
Jesus: "No...you're trapped in here with me. And you ain't getting out alive"

Jesus! Blessed by this sermon. It's a set up
This message is what people need. I love you man of God
Yes Jesus thank you for your love for us. It's a setup. Amen
I now understand my thirst and I was so impatient with the setup... Amen to the word of God 😊
Fine woman
Thank you Jesus for allowing the parenthesis to be just a portion of my story. Help me put into action what you've set as examples to us, that I may actively live out what you've imprinted on my heart. Help me to forgive my enemies as you've forgiven me, to turn the other cheek, to give forgiveness as many times as it requires, to show people the love you have for us. I see now my parenthesis was required so you could bring others to know you thru me. How lucky I am to have gone thru these struggles. I will count them as joyful blessings. I see that you are the only thing that can satisfy my thirst when I'm feeling defeated. You're words satisfy my soul and give me the strength to persevere, because you're perfecting me into the diamond you know I am. Thank you Lord.
Yesterday I was rewatching the let your lid off a little and I expressed my trying situation and said that I didn't know what or how to get out of my situation and cried out for a word or message to help me. I'm in my "parentheses". This word is my answer! Thank you so much! GOD is so good to me and I'm going to watch this repeatedly for the next couple of days! This is AMAZING 👍❤️👐👐❤️
GOD give us the strength to endure as we go through what will lead to victory!! 🙌🙌🙌
Cant believe ppl dislike this! 🤦♂️ Evil world 🌎 God bless everyone who reads this.
I came here on today because I have loved someone so hard. Due to my passed relationships in my life starting with my parents to ex's. I have allowed myself to get stuck and been sticking so hard to "MY TRUTH" that don't exactly line up with "GOD'S TRUTH!" I prayedthis morning and this is where God guided me. I'm coming today to Give God his glory and praise!!!! I thank you Father for using Pastor Furtick to deliver your truth on today.
Love these messages from Steven Furtick, especially when I live a stressful life with my sister Michele and her husband Michael, who has been rude and disrespectful to me, just because of his job situation. This message brings hope in my life.
Thanks for preaching Pastor Furtick.
Maricel Doneza a little bit of TMI... But yeah stay strong....
I know you are hurting and just wanted to be heard. If your heart wasn’t full with pain, you wouldn’t be want to speak out. May God strengthen you and give you perspective to handle this situation. Pray for yourself, your dear sister and her beloved husband. God can do great things above what you can imagine or expect. hugs!
Maricel Doneza. I pray that God helps u
Thank u ! My dad was a preacher when I was growing up & I know now why I had lots of spiritual battles, actually I still do, but thank u again keep preaching the word of God and helping your brother & sister in Christ Amen
I feel i was called to share with you something that could help, give me a text 9096752744.
Many wilderness and red seas but God will take me out, in the name of Jesus.
This is one of the most amazing things I’ve ever watched
I love Pastor Steven’s preachings! They are very Biblical to begin with and deep and practical! Thank You Jesus for raising this Pastor in this time! We need more of these Pastors in our time! May God continue to bless you!!!
Jesus set me up from day 1 with cerebral palsy yay! Praise God!
Goosebumps! JESUS IS KING!
My struggles are a step up to something much bigger💞💞
PASTOR STEVEN FURTICK IS A BLESSING I STOP GOING TO CHURCH WAS TIRED OF GETTING JUDGED BY WHAT I WEAR AND HOW I PRAYED IT WAS JUST TOO MUCH SO I STAYED HOME AND READ MY BIBLE. ONE DAY IM ON UTUBE WATCHING PASTOR T.D. JAKES AND HE INTRODUCED PASTOR STEVEN UP AND HIS WORDS HELP ME UNDERSTAND GOD MORE IT WAS THE WAY HE BROKE IT DOWN AND MADE YOU THINK, LAUGH AND TOUCHED YOUR HEART. I TELL EVERYONE ABOUT PASTOR STEVEN....
So many are against this preacher.
Mid-pandemic, these videos helped me get closer to Him and revived my Bible study.
#annointed #Godblessyou
I performed a UA-cam search for "the best sermon ever," and this is what came up. Beautiful, compelling, and moving!
It's heaven's trap! Amen
I am blessed this morning!
I was searching to hear a sermon;: so I typed in " the greatest preacher in the world today....the search shown this sermon first. I daily listen to Pastor Steven Furtick. so, I was eager to listen, and after hearing this short sermon, I agree that he is one of the best preacher in the world today, giving God all the glory and honor for giving him wisdom and knowledge of His Word, Praise God, hallelujah! Thank you Jesus! This sermon has been a blessing to my soul for the season I am experiencing in my life, right now, and I thank God for leading me here...thank you Pastor Furtick...I been struggling with this season I'm in, but now thank God I can see! 🙏🏼 🎶God is so good, God is so good to me.🎶
I'm thinking of how my partner & I have taken really unpleasant moments & let God spin them into gold. We have repeated some of the mistakes we grew up with, but God has always had Their hands on our hearts. Changing our hearts towards practicing emotional fidelity, launching community partnerships, etc. And the much quieter ways, like taking more of an interest in one another, not just what we want to show people on social media. Out of one of the darker experiences, he began a platform to showcase what sort of father he wants to be. God has helped me keep choosing him because God already knows who he really is. Which means They also know who I really am. Because discouragement & comparison can be all too easy to project onto him, I am grateful for our little lamps on this winding path & the blessings we haven't even lived through yet.
Behavior has reason, love yall
