- Sometimes, the biggest barrier between us and our blessings is not the challenges around us, but our expectation for God to show up in the same way He did in our past. Learn the freedom that comes when you stop asking the questions of what, when, and how - and focus instead on WHO.

"My job is NOT to PREDICT the WAY God will move." So many truth bombs.
"You couldn't get to God, God came down to you wrapped himself up, looking like a little infant, but really He was infinite."

This is apt, am gonna have to borrow this
I have been very depressed and anxious lately. It seems no matter how hard I fight against it I continue to feel down and alone. But God!! He keeps lifting me up little by little. He may not be taking me out of the situation but He is sending me just what I NEED to get through in the MIDST of it!!
God wakes you up everyday because he has a purpose for you. Only you can fulfill that purpose. Just remind yourself that there are blessings that you will not be able to receive if you give up now. I pray for ylu
I pray for you 🙏
I love this!
Kendra Ludden And you will have a testimony to show share with others on how God helped you through your valley. What you are going through is tough and difficult and because you are faithful and you love God, He will work in and through your "wilderness" and enable you to help others in their own "wilderness". Your wilderness is temporary, even though it is long and hard. God, is forever. You are blessed.
This is your time to get closer to God, Peace be still is what God says, Isn't it it amazing that God will always send you what you need. God bless you Kendra L.
This sermon was preached and recorded in May 2017, I watched and needed this sermon today 26th July 2019 (2 years + later). The word of God is truly a living word.

Sheila Honore i'm so sorry my condolences is a little angel looking down at you protecting you and guiding you and she's there with God he's holding her in his right hand
I pray that God strengthens you and your family as you mourn this loss and that He allows you all to find hope and peace in His great name. I pray that His will be done in your lives and that somehow some way, He can use this situation to grow you all and can bring glory to His name. In Jesus' name, amen.
It is so amazing that you can feel God in your messages online while I’m working.
Bless you and your family and friends you helped me get through the hardest storm in my life.
My 11 year old son was diagnosed with Lymphoma back in November and on January 30 he walked out of Childrens Hospital

Praise my almighty God!!!
Hey kendra. I know the feeling of been lonely and depress for almost all my life. I found a breakthrough, i decided to put all my fears, hurt and pain in the hands of God. I decide lonely and depression wont get me down anyone more its time to rise. So no complaining, went to church more, tell God to use me am available to do your work, give me the peace that i need, give me balance in my life, quench my thirst so i can serve you better. I want to be better. Use me like you have done Daniel you have close the lions mouth, give me the strength like David to slew Goliath, be in the fire with me like the three Hebrew boys. Encourage yourself, wake up like you have purpose, been on a journey each day. Talk to God daily about the changes that you need him to take care of.
What was the barrier is now the blessing 😭 Ps Steven yesterday YOU told me ‘The weapon that was meant to kill u will save u’ (No Weapon). Your sermons give me incredible hope 🙏
This sermon was preached two years ago but it's so fresh to me.
Thank you Jesus's
May God bless you Pr. Steven Furtick and your ministry.
"I am doing a new thing...do you not perceive it?"
The new thing...the difference...it's blessed this time.
Comment Amen to receive this 🙌
Yes Amen Anna Deines
I pray a blessing over every one doing through the wilderness and walking through the valley and shadow of death. We will fear no evil
God doesn't want us committed to a system than we are to the source...God is new everyday...Halleluyah!!!
(Dj kahlid voice)- And Another 1!. Amen. Thank u lord for blessing him so he may preach your word.
I just came back from a youth camp, and at the camp, the leaders prayed for every camper beforehand, and based on that they put a Bible verse in envelopes with our names on them. I got Isaiah 43,18-19. Ha. I didn't quite know what it meant, now a few days later I click on this sermon and voilá. Such good timing!!
Lenka Chládková amen
GODS TIMING IS PERFECT
"I don't think God wants us to be more committed to a system than we are to a source."

My God is doin' a brand nu thang
But, since time began, He remains the same
Faithful, forever to His word
And solid, a cornerstone unstirred
But, look down through the ages and you will find
God doesn't change, but He knows the time
From harp to piano, and song to rap
Ya know, God's wit' us, so we can not lack and so
God is doin' a nu thang
In our lives so
We're doin' a nu thang
Through Jesus Christ
God is doin' a nu thang
Through our music
We're doin' a nu thang
So He can use it
God's usin' this music and we're comin' strong
DC Talkin', often singin' a song
To make ya think twice 'bout the way thatcha live
And, let ya know Christ is the one that'll give
Peace in ya heart, a nu start
Call on the Lord and He'll do His part
A brand nu thang to ya raggedy walk
He might just match it up to that big ol' talk
God is doin' a nu thang
In our lives so
We're doin' a nu thang
Through Jesus Christ
God is doin' a nu thang
Through our music
We're doin' a nu thang

Like an MC, I'm here to boast
I rap about Christ, yo here's a dose
So loud and proud of the God I serve
Try to say He ain't wit' it, huh, ya got nerve
Christ is the reason for DC Talk
He's the focus of our daily walk, y'all
Without Him, we ain't nothin' but names
But through God, we're doin' brand nu thangs
God is doin' a nu thang
In our lives so
We're doin' a nu thang
Through Jesus Christ
God is doin' a nu thang

Do a new thing in me lord! Make me your battle angel, your warrior. Your healer of the people and Earth. Bless me lord with your wisdom and clarity to understand your messages . Bless me in your courage and dress me in your armored light.
"You made a way..thun, thun, thun,..where there was no way..thun thun thun" That's stuck in my head now = )

Better that than the actual word of God. Have you ever really looked at the passages he uses? They never mean what he says. Please stay away from this false teacher
@@michaelransdell9470 You scared, GO TO CHURCH. You down? Put in work. Crazy ? GO BERSERK.
we are free!!! Just use that freedom for good. (Apostle Paul)
What once was the barrier, now can be the blessing! God turns barriers into blessings! He turns pain into power! He makes a way! A new way!
Amen
He's a way maker... he made a way when there was no way... I'm doing a new thing... so true... forgetting the things which are behind I pursue towards the goal which is the prize... sing it... believe it... live it... speak it with power...
PeterandAnn Towle a
Amen
PeterandAnn Towle amen!!
who dislikes a clear and concise powerful life changing fresh message like this?
I don't know if you ever read this pastor but I found you in prison just before I got out and I lost you for three years but now I found you again I don't ever want to lose you again
Praying for continued guidance and direction in your life, Raymond! ^EC Team
I believe and receive this prophetic word today in Jesus Christ Holy name amen by the power of the Holy Spirit Amen
"I am speaking, but not on the same frequency! I need you to dig deeper!"
Amen I'm blessed by this message may God help me forget my past relationships mistakes and move upward in mighty name of Jesus
Sometimes I wonder what your doing but I have learned in listening to you that you always present a new way of looking at things and the anointing comes and the holy spirit fills the atmosphere and I learn and grow, praise God, your unique way of preaching is heart opening.
I was so moved by God hearing this message. Thank you Pastor Furtick but I can't stop crying. When I was young, I was illiterate until the 5th grade. I struggled throughout school especially in English class. My struggles eventually allowed me to see Christ and gave my life to Him. And now, I teach English internationally. I'm an award winning public speaker and trainer. And, God has used me to have the lost come and give their lives to Christ. And, He's not done yet. I feel the seeds planted to do business and to write a book. Thank you God for making my barriers into blessings. Glory to God. I pray that He too will change your barriers to blessings. I definitely want more of Him. Amen.
Pressing my way from my barrier to my blessings. I'm not going to look at things the same way as God did back then, I'm looking through a different perspective. He's going to make a way in my wilderness. Thanks for blessing me with this message.
Beautiful sermon may God continue to bless you and your family
My goodness!! What a clear, well presented, challenging yet encouraging message. Thank you Pastor Steve and thank you elevation. Now where is the tissue?
awangia
Thank
You are your belief. If you lose it then you aren't. -Charles Manson 😇😘
"forget the former things" he clarified that so quick after he said it lol!!! Great sermon!
Yes it is we all are child of God, so much to learn
Come on preach it he has blessed me beyond measure ......God has seriously blessed you and gave you the gift to reach the lost beyond belief .....I pray that God continues to bless you
I watched this message in March, it was the inspiration for a sermon i was able to preach in front of 50 homeless in Japan, thank you for this!
60 seconds into the sermon and I am already Blessed. Immediate thumps up👍📖👌💟
Keep Moving!
More Miracles of Divercity
Are still yet to see!
Keep Moving!!!
I needed this. I pray the lord brings me a godly man like this. I want to spend time speaking about our Cheryl Crow moments. Even though she was before me.
Going through a difficult time in my life. Your sermon really ministers to me. Thank you, Jesus!
Whatever's next, it's better. God bless y'all❤❤
anyone else feel the spirit of the lord?!? Thank you Jesus! Thank you pastor!!!
My Lord is My light in the darkness!! Thank You Lord!! ❤️
Steven, the impact and revolutionary style of this message is insane(in a good way). Do you even understand how many people have never heard that text preached like that before, including me? For where I am today, and the crossover thats about to happen in my life, you've reminded me not to expect Him to do it like before, but to expect Him to do the miracle in a new way!!! I can't wait to visit you at Elevation.
I have been going through a period of wilderness, today I have received answers to my uncertainties. I have been utterly blessed by this Sermon. Prayers and blessings Pastor
Praise God happy birthday PASTOR STEVEN good morning God bless you pastor Steven and your family to all hallelujah JESUS Name 🙏Amen 🙏
I be like 😁😳😮🤔☺️🤣😃 all in just over 49 minutes. Couldn't have been a clearer or more heart felt message again. Thank God, thank you and thank you for all the past videos that have given and still speak to my heart even tho they were recorded ages ago, even though I've already watched them God uses them again. I hope and pray God continues to use you as his messenger for everyone and everyone to come, loud and clear, not only because the messages are amazing but because you're hilarious too! Guaranteed to make you smile! Lots of love to all the fam at Elevation church from Kim, Bolton UK. 🙏🏼
Kim Borsay I know same here!! 🙌🏼
Amen GLory to God
There you Kim Borsay speak for the heart, thats what the lord jesus chirst wants us is to give all our heart in him praise jesus yes lord
What an amazing Message ❤️ God will make a way, where there seems to be no way 🙌🙌
Ha, 😂, just wait until you turn 60, you were raised with, only Southern Gospel, and Convention Songs, went to singings Every weekend, and now I'm learning to worship to the new type of worship music 🙌🙌 God is A Way Maker 🙌🙌🙌🙌🙌, He performs Miracles in my life daily, they're not the same, because my spiritual relationship with God is so much deeper than it used to be. I give God the Praise, and Glory, for Each and Every Blessing He has allowed me 🙌🙌 Empty Nesters, have different challenge's because, if they have grown children, they see them making the same mistakes, and as a parent, I want to give advice, Huge Mistake!!! God has shown me that my children have to learn from their own mistakes, in order to receive the Blessings from God. It hurts, as a Mom, but turning my children and the lives they live over to God, has been one of the best Blessings of my life. I don't know have to know how, I know that God will lead, guide, gird, and sustain the lives of my children 🙌🙌🙌🙌🙌🙌❤️❤️
BEAUTIFUL 😭 I am amazed how God touched my heart with this sermon
God is good .. he's a way maker ❤️
I Thanked God today for creating you with the gift of learning his word,and for sharing your knowledge with many.
Thank you for your messages. I have been listening every day. I am going through a very large speed bumb in my life right now and your messages are helping me every day. I need that connection and relationship with the Lord again and to know he is my strength when I have none. He is my provider when I have nothing.
You are not alone, Reigna! ^EC Team
The last 3 videos from this channel have been spot on. God has been speaking directly to the major issues and heartbreaks in my life through these preaches. Praising God for His faithfulness and that He is all knowing and for His complete restorative love and power in my life
I like the part where he says to forget it. So that I am able to receive the next blessing.
I live in and with severe chronic pain 24/7 due to a horrible accident in 92.
Even though it changed my life, my love for the Lord has grown stronger.
I listen to Steven everyday and every time he teaches, it fills me to overflow.
If I don't put some of it into memory or forget it then how am I to learn more from his teachings.
Keep up the great work Steven.
God bless you and your family always!!!
William tedder.... I can relate, I too was involved in an accident in April 1992. I developed severe rheumatoid arthritis in 2002 due to that accident. The pains lasted until in Feb 2019, when God miraculously healed me totally. Keep praying your turn will come.
The anointing is timeless, Thank You FATHER
This message wow!!! Literally everything you have mentioned God was saying see daughter this is what I’m telling you, your past is your past I made a new way live in the new way forget the past it is gone I MADE A NEW WAY!! This whole message was for me ♥️ HE MADE A WAY WHEN THERE WAS NO WAY AMEN!!
Just when I need a word God puts a four year old Steven Furtick sermon in my path knowing it’s exactly what I need to water that mustard seed of faith. Yes JESUS YOU ARE MY KING OVER ALL THINGS AND I LOVE YOU. Thank you Jesus for creating Steven and his family for they have been nothing but a blessing
Praise God! Joe, thanks for sharing this. How can we be praying for you this week?
Thanks for being there for GOD to speak through your a special part of the Kingdom I except the points of the sermon. +I add Isaiah 55:11 as a P.S
Oh Yeshua, the Word and our Creator is awesome, HE can work with anything or anyone that is WILLING to truly believe and obey His WORDS of life and salvation so that He can manifest Himself in them. Pastor Steven as Stephen in the Bible is truly used by our Creator and Savior. I pray that Pastor Furtick and family are continually covered by the Grace and Spirit of God as he goes forth in the name of JESUS Christ. This season in my life with Pastor Furtick has been a life changer for me. From the Caribbean
Wow! Wow! Wow! Going through a difficult time in my marriage, heading toward divorce (not by my choice). I know in my heart He will make a way.
I fell in love after the first sermon. Always breaks through to my soul❤️. I love him, thank you god. Love and blessings from Delaware
never worry too much. everything has a purpose. greater than us, God sees everything. And with Him, any dream and desire you have is possible. Your job is to never stop begging and never give up. Not too hard, right? You will see, its gonna be one of the hardest things youll ever have to do. And youll do it all over again if you have to. Its because you love God.
Oh goodness! Just what i needed God always gives me an answer thank you Lord IKnow Ill see u do it again
Praise God!!! Thank You for doing A New Thing in my life, and those near and far!!! Yes!!! You r my source!!! Thank You Lord!!!
Praise God!! He made a way where there is no way!! He is able! Today, I BELIEVE and RECEIVE God's blessing with healing my anxiety/depression. I was praying but didn't feel anything was happening and I just wanted God to embrace me so I know He's fighting with me. Little did I know, He wants to fight the battle For me!! Praise God!! Believe it! He is able!
I love the way he preaches. He will make you laugh one minute then hit you with a deep word or thought. Love it!!!😎
Getting this message over and over this 2017. Love how good our God is! Old things have passed away and all things are becoming New! Praise Jesus
Regina DeLuca God knows what we need and when we need
Regina DeLuca God loves us
Lord U helped me raised my kids. Yes U will show me THE next chapter in my life !💓➕ FAITH !!!
Come on. Not what I was expecting I saw barriers to blessings and thought something else but the message came hard and strong - water in the Red Sea an obstacle to water in the wilderness a miracle. Won't he do it!! Glory! Thank you Pastor
This just blessed my entire being!!! God bless this man!! 🙌🏾❤️
Amen
Iv been listening to him Steavens for a couple of days now bc pain and sorrow has brung me back to my knees asking for forgiveness and gods love. his words I want to listen to him preach all the time now bc I don’t want to let go of gods hand anymore so blinded I feel blessed to now see how the devil creeps his way into my life and I do not want that to happen under my nose again. Only in gods grace will I see him bf he comes only in gods grace will I be protected and prepared ..thank you
I honestly really do love the way that he always incorporates things that happen to him that week or things that happen to him before in each of his preachings. I love how it all comes together one way or another ❣❣
God has set around us many ways to see how He works. Ex: when a plant needs water its roots seek lower ground to get it. This makes the roots longer and stronger. We find God when we reach deep into His well springs of life. On our face, withdrawn to that deeper place to hear His voice. Then we, like the plant get the nourishment we need to anchor ourselves in Him. God has what we need. He always has and forever will. Staying in His Word, speaking His Word and reminding ourselves that He meant them for "me" will root and ground us in His stability ALWAYS. Blessings to all of you. FAB
Thank you for talking to me the way Isaiah did. God is bringing the water to me and I pray for strength in the wilderness.
Thanks for always preaching the gospel with fire my friend! AND.. you look fantastic 😃
Pastor Steven I can't remember when I started to watch you. I thank you for your way of presenting the word of our Father, our Blessed Savior Jesus, and our Holy Spirit who helps to guide us and teach us. I don't know anyone who I have heard that can connect us as God's children to the Trinity and help us to live the word daily. God Bless you and your family and Take Care Amen
Continously watching every sermon, with tears. Our God is great♥
GOD IS DOING A NEW THING IN MY LIFE!!! ALLELUJAH! GLORY BE TO GOD!!!
I don't have to know how if I know WHO! HE IS ALPHA AND OMEGA..THE BEGINNING AND THE END! HE IS THE SAME YESTERDAY, TODAY AND FOREVER MORE!!! PRAISE GOD!!!
GOD BLESS YOU MAN OF GOD!!!
Praise jesus he always doing good things in us we just got to be open for his gift
such a great timeless message! I am so hungry for the things of God and to dive deeper into his word. The world is spiritually starving and needs more solid food like this, for many it's time to stop drinking baby milk and become stronger in the Lord! Thank you for the message.. God bless you and your family and elevation church!
This might be the best message I've ever seen preached! You rock!
This guy is a firecracker!!! But this was a huge blessing that God wanted me to hear. In a situation now and instead of wondering how he is going to do it, I am going to receive it by faith and focus on him!!!
I am blessed by this message.
THANK YOU LORD One Name hallelujah KING Of KINGS JESUS CHRIST Hallelujah🙏Amen 🙏
Amen!!!!!!!!!!!!!! talking to me, i literally live in the desert, my water is coming up.............Glory be to God.
Thanks for everything you did Pastor..not only I adore you, but you made me fall in love again and again with Jesus..God bless you and your family..💐💓
When you can relate to his preaching 🙌🏽🙌🏽🙌🏽🙌🏽🙌🏽
I dont know how ,when or where but I know Jesus is doin a new thing in my life and to my family and friends. Glory be to the God almighty of Israel..
I'm 62 and we are going thru this right now..and I live alone..but Jesus is here now!!
So great is our God after a difficult season tonight here I'm listening to this sermon who mention about this Bible verse that I received in the beginning of 2020 with my boyfriend.. A long story that tonight I remembered cause of this Scripture but a new fresh Bible perspective of what I couldn't understand in the season...waiting to see the final of this promise of God. Trusting and holding to the day of seeing God's blessing and favor. Our God is a way maker
God always answer prayers in the right time 🙏 this was just what I needed to hear
God is Good 🙏😇
Thank YOU JESUS ❣️
Amen! It’s not about what He can and does for us, it’s about the relationship, truly knowing Him and Who He is! I needed this reminder where I’m at right now.
We’re so blessed to hear that God is speaking to you through this message, Sherri!😊May you continue to grow in your relationship with Jesus & get to know Him more & more day by day. He is in you. He is with you & He is for you! 🧡^EC Team
If I don't loose the old blessing I will not receive the new one.. sometimes God makes it look humanly impossible so that He can reveal himself .He looks beyond even my presumptuous sin.God thank you for doing new things for me.🙏🏿🙏🏿🎼🎤🎤🎤.. This is really for me.
I'm 22 and sometimes i feel like the best years of my life (high school) are behind me too => the devil is a liar
Sarah Washington The devil is a liar! your best days are ahead of you
Sarah Washington. Youre not even able to imagine the amount of greatness in the things to come. Life is hard its very hard at times. But thank god i finally figured out at 36 that my life will be constant chaos without my focus and attention fixed FIXED on God. We aren't able to go it alone. It will break us to our knees at every turn and those times of weakness and hurt and being that vulnerable are dark yet they are when your life is at the begining of a breakthrough. Just keep your focus on him and you will have more joy than pain. He will make a way where there was not one before. God bless us all.
Yes, Sarah, the devil is a liar! He told me the same lie when I was your age. I am now 57 and I am here to tell you the best years of your life are ahead. G-d bless you! Peace.
22 is such a tough year for me, I just turned 23 and everything turned around for me this year. I realized my life is really just beginning. Your time will come. The devil will tell you so many things to bring you down but we have a great God.
Why would you believe that?
Happy birthday 🎂 🥳 Mrs Holly.. God bless you lady of Christ. I love y'all ❤ thank you for your service in delivering the Word. Welcome our family of Christ!
My Wife & I listen to you everyday and we appreciate your personal stories of experience because we all need a good Pastor that's Real inside & outside the Church instead of being fake/wearing 2 different "hats." We appreciate the realness brother. God Bless Elevation in full!
Jesus is Awesome yes we are doing a New thing in the mighty name of Jesus Christ 😇🙏💜🌈🌎🌄💯💎🌹🌹
"Sometimes we get stuck in a season and we miss God supply!"
I'm amazed at how much this spoke to me in my situation. I wasn't even looking for this video, it just showed up in my feed. God is remarkable.
I couldn't stop crying when I was watching this and thinking of how many ways he make for me and how far he brought me to....thank you JESUS🙌🙌🙌🙌
Power-packed message thank u Ps Furtic....thank u lord jesus
