I cried the whole sermon. I was getting tired of trying to make many things in my life work as I hoped but through this message God spoke to me "You already tried hard now trust harder".
I was balling. Lol. So I get it. It was like it just spoke to me and how I've been trying so hard to fix my relationship with my daughter. I've been trying so long. I believe God is going to do it now!!
This message spoke to me, somtimes it feels like im climming up the mountain but i can get up to the top, because your running on your own & sometimes you feel like no cares so why should you care, because instead of being there for you they push you away with there additude!
Suitland, Maryland Pastor! I'm always amazed at how God uses you to make the message REAL and plain for me so that I can apply it daily. Thank God for you!
The Lord works in mysterious ways and He performs miracles everywhere and everyday! Lord, ty for your unfailing abundance of unconditional love, mercy and grace!

y'all please pray for me. I am STRUGGLING with grades and just stress. Everything is piling up on me and I NEED to learn how to trust in God through this
I pray you Lord will answer and bless my sister with the answer from Your heart that GETS her and specifically CARES for her... YOU be her Teacher, not only in Life, but in School. Be her Surprise and Salvation for the mundane stuff that really Matters... answer this prayer Lord! Amen
God, I ask that you soften mine and Shera heart for each other, that you remove any blocks to our communicate. Remove any outside negativity, jealousy, influences, pride, ego, anger and resentment we may knowingly or unknowingly have towards one another. End Physical separation between us and bring us together in a harmony union. So we can rebuild our foundation on your rock. Thank you Lord God for hearing my prayer 🙏🏼 I love you. In the mighty name of Jesus amen.
This message has saved my marriage! Because I had struggled for many years and today, my wife and I have finally broke through and finally started communication. And we have laid aside the past pain we both experienced and the defense we had when a problem arose. Thank you.
Im hoping and praying for my marriage restoration to happen too .. Just had a major breakdown Please keep me in your prayers .. Happy For You and Your wife God Bless
Lauren Williams what God is doing for us. He definitely will do it for your marriage. How it began for us is as a man I had to realize that I had issues and I wasn’t a good communicator. So I had to examine what it really meant for a husband to love my wife, like Christ loves the Church. I had to work on looking at my weaknesses and not my wife’s. She was doing her best and I was pointing out her faults and not looking at mine. So if y’all can get to that place of understanding you approach it and work on yourself reading the word of God. You will have a breakthrough. God is Faithful and I am a Blessed man to have a wife who has dedicated herself to finding out how to be a wife! God Bless you and we will continue to lift you up in prayer!
YES Chris! Ours was saved as well!!! We began sharing our story on FB which turned into our UA-cam story. After 19 years of marriage, I sent my husband a text saying "I think our marriage is over". We have come a long way. It hasn't been easy but it's been worth it! We both learned to let God lead. Trust in Him! Our Marriage is Worth The Fight and so is Yours!🙌💖🙏
I’m battling infertility and this message came at the best time. I had just decided I can’t keep trying on my own and I listened to God when He told me to just wait and trust Him. Surrendering and giving it all to God. 🙌🏻
To be in battle against your own body will only produce more inflammation and issues. I had problems conceiving after my first, but truly surrendered to God and five years later had another child...then three more! 💙🙏
Children are beautiful but this world is evil n about to come to an end, focus on jesus, let him decide what's good for u n trust that, not what u want. Sounds rough n heartless but its anything but! Jesus wants ur soul and ur undivided love sometimes. Whatever gifts he has for u, trust that. Understand that we are in end times. Lucifer will deceive. Like why does this group of Christians pose the osiris x hand/arm pose? Idk, so hard waking ppl up, its frustrating to see so many ppl being led half-honestly, known as luke warm Christians who will be ignored by God. Im not saying u are, idk u! I'm saying I cant listen to or believe this guy who throws up osiris x hand signals along with the group doing it. That's not Christian. New age Christianity is not true Christianity. Watch Jeremiah Cohen n open ur eyes! A call for an uprising. Many fish. R$E. These are Jesus of Nazareth Christians, God our heavenly father, YHWH Christian's. They teach oin qhat symbolisms to look for, please find time to watch one video on each. U will learn 1000 things u didn't realize and u will wake up. Trust me, u won't regret it! Jesus has me telling ppl everyday. Im telling u
I watched this live yesterday & I felt Pastor Steven speaking directly to me... I'm exhausted trying to get out of my current situation. When trying ends, trusting starts & miracles happen💯👌🏼🙌🏼🙏🏼
@jj j Check NIV version.. John 5 6 . When Jesus saw him lying there and learned that he had been in this condition for a long time, he asked him, "Do you want to get well?"
I need prayer so bad y’all. My marriage and personal struggles has gotten me to a very unhealthy place. To the point I’m losing hope. Prayers appreciated
We are praying for you, Wisetow10! God is with you! "He gives power to the faint, and to him who has no might he increases strength. Even youths shall not faint and be weary, and young men shall fall exhausted; but they who wait for the Lord shall renew their strength; they shall mount on wings like eagles; they shall run and not be weary; they shall walk and not faint." - Isaiah 40:29 - 31 🙏 ^EC Team
Amen sugar,God got u&ur mama.. trust God during the trials....ask the Holy Spirit for strength,guidance,direction&wisdom! You'll hav tuff times,they r to build ur spiritual muscle,like staying fit for soccer,to build strengths u need to play ur sport...build both strengths. God Bless u& ur Mama😊
Sermon notes : John 5:1 *God suprises is with what He does and who He uses *When you fix the symptom and not focus on the root the end is worse than the beginning * To challenge the system is to risk disappointment *B.S (Broken System) *Stop inserting verses that aren’t there to keep explaining yourself *Religion is a Broken System, Relationship Matters *5 is a number of Grace✨ *Are you still stuck in what used to be true? *The real work is to TRUST ❗️ *The reason God showed up for the paralyzed man was to change the entire system * God :” I see you trying , but can you trust me”? *Sometimes my trying gets in the way of my trusting 😭 *I can only receive certain things not by trying but by Trusting * Let the water come to you! *Jesus is the Living water 🙏🏽
“You cared and cared, but they didn’t care back” this message for me was related to me loss of hope for a genuine relationship with my family. I tried so long that I’ve stop praying about it. I actually feel frustrated even thinking about praying about it because it feels hopeless. God is working on me... thank you for this message
Amen praise the holy spirit 🙌 🙏, thank you brother to be a vessel from God. Every morning I watch your videos and they all apply to my life. God bless you always in Jesus name. I'm here in Massachusetts 😊
I know that this message was from 2 years ago but it spoke to me like it was told just yesterday! God is amazing and knows exactly what you need, and when you need it. 🙌🏾 🙏🏾 Thank you and God bless you
I have struggled with depression for over 20 years. I believe God has a purpose for my life (as for everyone's), but sometimes my vision gets clouded. So a long time ago, I decided to simply pray "Thy will be done." My will was so broken. I was so stuck and paralyzed by fear. People would ask me "what do you want?" and I wouldn't have an answer. A little while later an answer came to my heart "I want to want." I just wanted to feel enough to feel the power of will, to get to a place where desire and action can meet so I could begin the task of trying to align my will with His. After years of "wanting to want," I finally feel a little spark of desire again. "Do you want to get well?" is a question I have an answer for! Yes! I can feel myself moving past the paralysis, and I know if God has prepared a good work in me, I want badly enough to trust Him.
Wow, it seems that God brought me here to listen to the message and to read your comment. It so easily could be me writing it.. Im praying for you and i, that God's Will be done, that we both learn to trust Him. I pray that God's Grace and Favour flow through you, in Jesus name, Amen.
@@dorothyjoycassilles1056 What a Joy (pun intended) it is to read your comment! I was so nervous to write it. To be that vulnerable and honest in a public forum, but if one person felt seen, then it is worth it! Praying that He uses us according to His will and that we listen and trust Him. Leaning on the everlasting Arms!
You brought me back to Jesus. I admit, I left HIM. But listening to your preaching, I’m finally home. Thank you! I had so many doubts and sorrows recently. You, HIS anointment, cleared my mind. THANK YOU! I’m following! And I will donate!
@SECAL02 well if you came here looking for a fight, you will be greatly disappointed, because people are smart enough to not have to prove themselves to someone who has an affinity to causing quarrel. I also wished you watched the video because some of the stuff you are talking about have already been answered in the video. How can you argue/respond to a video if you didn't watch it? Lol
@SECAL02 my belief is challenged frequently. I don't live I fear of being challenged, it's everyday thing. Lol. If you worried about people believing in fairytales , go tell some kids that Santa doesn't exist. Or what you can do is spread the word about climate change!! That's would be productive and Darwkin would approve... maybe. You should also watch the video, but whatever.
"You will receive certain things in your life from trying but only by trusting" I've been asking myself and to God for a very long time on how to get out the loop of sins, problems thinking how to move forward, thinking how to be a best daughter. Finally, finally 😭😭😭 this message comforts me and I can't stop crying. While watching this, I keep repeating the words over and over to remind me, that God's grace and mercy is infront of me, I am just attached to the system that's why I can't hear what God says to me. Thank you Lord. Thank you Elevation Church for posting this. Thank you Pastor Steven. God bless you abundantly.
I feel like there are times where when I do give something my best effort and it seems like it never works out for me. There are even times where I want to give up on everything, but looking back I realized how God has kept me in His arms all these years, even when I didn't see, feel, or understand the situation. I just wanna thank God for being their for me when even the most loyal friends and family couldn't.🙏🏽
Most of the time, we are trying to do things we just can’t do without the healing power of Jesus. When we surrender our efforts to heal ourselves and pray for Jesus to heal us, He will heal in His way and time.
This! This is for me. I pray for the what ever it takes to TRUST in God for all the areas I am struggling with. Bad patterns, years of trying to be … using all these things of this world. Walk with me lord I can’t do anything without you . 🔥💪🙌🙏
Listening at work, felt like God has been working in me the whole week and today listening to this he broke down my walls, starting crying with joy at my desk because I’m choosing to TRUST God and stop trying to do things my own way🙌🏼
I never comment on videos, but I had to say that this message is an on-time word for my life right now. I listen at this message 2-3 times every day. So thankful for this ministry.
i have it and let me tell you its a mind thing!! i didnt believe it i got mad at all my psychologist i swore up and down i needed medicine. finally got on the medicine and was doing super well! then when i fasted for a week the Spirit told me to stop taking my pills so i did. I was so fine! you have to trust in God. theres times where im super nervous about going out in public places alone or even talking to someone but I always say in my mind “God help me” at least control my shakiness. I still take my medicine here and there but you have to keep pushing yourself beyond your comfort zone and pray for that strength because it is hard. theres times where i still drag people with me to get gas lol.
I agree with the last comment ! But also don’t call it “your anxiety” you don’t own it . Anxiety is the enemy’s work , it’s not yours . It’s something awful that the enemy wants to convince you it’s yours so you can feel bad. Stop calling it that and pray to God for help , I will pray for you.
As soon as the enemy trys to tell you you have anxiety. Speak back NO Jesus said I was healed two thousand years ago. Get it in your heart G and the mind will transform #blessgooo Love my G all the way from NZ
Yes Father! I WANT TO GET WELL- IVE ALWAYS WANTED TO GET WELL! I know who this was for Pastor Steven- please trust with your spiritual eyes, my words, THIS IS FOR ME, YOUR EVERY WORD OS PERSONALLY DETAILED FOR ME. DOWN TO 38 YEARS OF NOT BEING ABLE TO MOVE, MY SYRINGE WAS SPIKED BY AN ENEMY, POSING AS A FRIEND. JESUS performed a miracle on me when I was 38, healed me, I tried to tell ALOT OF PEOPLE, THE SYSTEM IS STRONGER THAN THE SYMPTOM!= NO HELP, MORE JUDGEMENTS- MORE LOST HOPE EVERY TIME I WATCH YOUR VIDEOS- I CRY TEARS OF RELIEF AND JOY THAT IVE BEEN HEARD BY YOU, THRU CHRIST. I COULD NOT GET TO THE WATER- THRU TRYING- I TRUSTED GOD WOULD HELP BRING THE WATER TO ME, AND HE DOES, EVERYDAY, THRU HIS SPIRIT,, MAKING A SENTENCE IN A CONVERSATION- OF PEOPLE PASSING BY, THE MESSAGE I NEEDED TO HEAR, IS LOUDER. SAME WITH MUSIC, EVERYTHING/EVERYONE I ENCOUNTER IS A STRONG MESSAGE.. THIS ID DEFINITELY A MESSAGE OF TRUST AND NOT TRYING, TRYING SEEMS USELESS. I TEUST HIM, BEFORE I TRUST MEDICINE, DOCTORS, LABELS, TREATMENT CENTERS, AND WHO I AM, AND NOT THE OPINIONS OF OTHERS. 38 YEARS IS A LONG TIME- I WILL BE 41 IN 2 WEEKS, THANK THE LORD- ITS TIME FOR REST!
God will see you through :) trust Him and pray. Mark 9: 24b says: 'and said so with tears, Lord, I believe, help thou mine unbelief'. God knows this world tries to choke your belief in and relationship with Him (Matt 13), but even with all the lingering doubt and distractions the devil surrounds you with, pray and seek His face and He will be a lamp unto your Christian walk and path and it will be worth it!! He loves you!! Always remember that :)
I am from San Antonio Texas. Pastor Stephen, THANK YOU for doing what you do everyday!!! I listen to your sermons every morning driving into work. When I get to work I jot down notes. At night I review what I wrote down and pull my Bible out and start to read.... THANK YOU for always reminding me that Jesus has not left me! I pray his hand over you and your family always!!! Thank you🙏
Asking for as much prayer for my sister her her lungs are very weak and I just ask to unite with me in prayer over her life so she can have the ability to breath on her own without difficulty for her lungs to be restored today she's currently Very weak but just help me pray over her !!!
I feel her pain.. I have bronchitis very bad right now for almost 3 weeks.. So I pray for her for healing and her lungs to be filled with the holy spirit and not mucous... I pray her lungs will be healthy and made whole and restored in Jesus name.. May Gods will be done....
@@melisapina1364 amen sister..... I'm praying and believing in God for restoration of your sisters lungs and mine... With God all things are possible.... Praise the LORD in good times and bad times.
Praise the Lord. I believe it is important to support Christian witness on social media. It is a blessing to be able to accesses sermons, testimonies, worship songs and Bible teachings from a PC or phone at any time now. Thank God for modern technology.
I'm from Brazil and all I can say here is that when God need to spoke to us he will do it, no matter when and no matter if it happen in the middle of the dawn in another country throught a computer screen. I felt that every single word was totally for me, and I'm thankful for the new chapter of my life that I know it will begin. Thank you Pastor for being an instrument in the hands of God, helping people change their lifes. May God bless you and bless this amazing church that I love so much
I 💙 this sermon...thank you Lord for using Pastor Steven Furtick for always trying to deliver your truth...I ask you to please help me stop trying but to truly trust you in all things especially my struggles and battles in JESUS NAME AMEN!!!! 🙏🙌🙏
I need prayer. Pray for me dealing with my depression and lack of will to live. I'm struggling to trust God in the middle of my storm. So please lift me up!!
Jacorey Norwood praying that you will experience the peace of God that surpasses all understanding and know that you are enough because Jesus is! You were brought to this world for a purpose don’t give up! The Lord is with you!
Lord, God, please encourage Jacorey to trust in you completely. Encourage Jacorey to want to live and show your truth - that Jacorey was placed on this earth to fulfill a special and wonderful purpose for you! In your name we pray, Amen!!! May God bless you.
Jacorey Norwood.... Don't give up but give in to Jesus.....pray without ceasing...... I've tried many times to end my life... It's not worth it, I repented of my past and look forward to the future..... Depression if not dealt with will lead you to your grave... Don't let the devil lie to you and make you feel worthless.... You were fearfully and wonderfully made bible says.... The devil comes to kill, steal and destroy... Jesus says I am the way, the truth and the life .. Fight hard... Bend a knee and ask God for help... Use bible affirmations that remind you that God loves you , stay strong and be blessed and don't let that glass get half full or full.. It's good to vent and ask others for help....
This message has the power to change your perspective on what it looks like to trust in God. I’ll be thinking about and applying this to my life all week long. Love this word!
Please pray for our little town a week ago we lost 2 young boys to a tragic car accident and 2 were hospitalized with life threating injuries and pray for the first responders and the truck driver involved in the accident
God knows how long we have tried to get out of the situation we are in..Mayb it has taken years . May today be the end of our struggle. Its enough! Disappointment will never prevent us from seeing our help that is in front of us. Jesus fix the broken system. May we pick our mats and walk again. Amen
I' m not a writer. In fact my English teacher hated me. I was too busy socializing to focus on literature. But, life experiences and my sister pushed me to blog, post, and write a novel about this. It seemed like I was the only one spreading this message. I'm so grateful someone with a platform like yours shared it as well. We see so many posts that tell us it's all up to us, and people don't believe how hard some of us are trying when there's no fruit to show from our effort. They think they must've tried harder or deserved it more if their health, or their situation is more secure, and more fruitful. I wrote a novel about how hard I tried to find love, to get healed, to get better, to feel needed in this world, to find a purpose, and what kind of destructive, reckless choices I made when no matter how hard I tried my efforts failed. When all you hear is you're not trying hard enough, but you know you are, and you know you've tried everything even though no one see's or believes, you feel even more defeated, because no one has the answer. So, thankyou with all my heart for this! God is using you in such a beautiful way.
"Be Still..." I heard these words while I was "trying" to decide if I should save my marriage. I was "trying" to understand how I could forgive when the Trust was broken. How can I ever Trust my husband of 19 years again??? My mind was racing at 430am on a Sat morning. I was "trying" to control my mind, and not letting my mind control me. I was just getting more upset... then I felt this warmth come over me and heard "Be Still"... Honestly thought I was loosing my sh*t. I then heard "Be Still" 3 more times in the next 48 hours, one of them being in the church sermon the following morning. I searched this term in the Bible "Be Still And Know, I Am God" Palms 46:10. When I learned to quiet my mind, Be Still, Trust God, and allow Him to lead. My husband is now a true man of God. We stopped "trying" to control our lives, and we give it all to GOD. And we knew we have been called to share our story. Our marriage is Worth The Fight! TRUST IN HIM!!!🙌🙌🙌
I'm in Las Vegas! I am so thankful for you and Elevation!! I hear you everyday! What a blessing that teaches and inspires! You confirm God's purpose for me!! Thank you 💜😊
Every time I feel like i can’t make it anymore i run to these sermons and they always turn my life around 🥺 when I feel like giving up I get filled up with these wonderful sermons May God bless you🙏🏿
This message spoke to me on a different level. It felt like he was talking to me. I'm 17, going through teenage problems. My anxiety about how I feel like I'm not good enough in someones eyes has made me start to develop poor and negative habits... I know that this isn't the life God intended for me to live and I feel like he brought me to this message. I'd been trying so hard for so long to work through my silly issues without really fully trusting that he's got my back.
Kayla Ray your issues aren’t “silly”. You may be surprised at how many people are going through the same thing you are. God definitely has your back and cares about your issues. You are enough.
This sermon spoke to me as an answer from GOD. I tried hard to seek Him, I struggled every morning to get up and spend time with Him. Everyone, including my mom as a church leader said I'm not enough, that what I have tried is nothing, so I tried harder and harder but never got to where I'm meant to be. I lost my hope and trust for GOD. I cried and complained and lashed out at HIm, but He answered me with forgiveness, mercy, love, and gentleness. At least I know I can be honest with Jesus, not trying to put a strong facade.
John 5- When we can't get to THE Water, The Living Water comes to us. I love how Pastor pointed out Ch4 and Jesus told that woman at the well He was the living water and now Jesus was showing us HE is The Living Water!!! God is so good.
Took me 6 years to get my associates and I wanted to just give up but I’m almost finished I have one semester left I listen to your sermons almost everyday and your sermons really help me through so much !!!
Tracey Harris sis keep going, God will help you through it... took me 4 years for my associates, another 3 years for my bachelors .. graduated high honors for both.. and currently working on my masters which would be an additional 2 years.. all while working full time, living on my own and honoring my ministries..
I'm in the same boat with you. I was drifting and just taking a class here or there and I thought I wanted to do nursing. However, I decided that it wasn't for me. Now I'm pursuing an associates in physical therapist aid. Just keep on keeping on and pray to God. I know that he will pull us through towards our purpose.
Michael Weeezeee it is definitely all God! I did change my major a few times during my associates trying to figure where God wanted me to do. I went part time.. so I know how you feel.. we definitely have to pray for each other.
Sometimes I feel like I take matters into my own hands when it comes to making important decisions. However I never realized until after the fact that because of the choice I've made I end up hurting something or someone in the process. Father please help guide me in you will.🙏🏼
God is good all the time- your sermons speak to me in helping to serve his purpose and gain clarity. He is the only one whom I can rely on to repair my relationship with the woman of my life, my wife to be. As an OTR Trucker, I’m far away from her and can only support her from afar and we need God’s help- He is the ONLY one who can do this and I wouldn’t have it any other way. Because when He works, me makes miracles- I need his love because he’s blessed me with this beautiful soul whom I need in my life. He found her for me and she for me. Amen
6 years ago, not long after I gave my life to Jesus, I tried so hard to live a better life. 6 years ago, I never understood why every time I opened God’s Word, God led my eyes to verses about faith and “O you of little faith” ... I prayed thousands of prayers. I tried. I tried. I tired. I almost died, my marriage almost ended, career going nowhere. And today, 6 years later. I got the message. I repented of not trusting God. I finally decide to trust God, to pick up my mat, and walk with Jesus. Hallelujah! I feel so free now. God did shock the waters! Thank you God for Pastor Furtick for this incredible life changing message. Pray that I live a true authentic life for God. Bless Our God! Thank you Jesus Our Lord and Savior!
"This isn't about trying, this is about TRUSTING" - I've been seeing this play out in my life more and more every day. I'm believing God for 100% healing in my will. I trust you Lord!
I cried the whole sermon. I was getting tired of trying to make many things in my life work as I hoped but through this message God spoke to me "You already tried hard now trust harder".
Andrea this made me cry!
me too i am crying.i have to trust Him now after all ive been and have tried so hard.that's the only thing thats left for me to do
I was balling. Lol. So I get it. It was like it just spoke to me and how I've been trying so hard to fix my relationship with my daughter. I've been trying so long. I believe God is going to do it now!!
What a word !!
This message spoke to me, somtimes it feels like im climming up the mountain but i can get up to the top, because your running on your own & sometimes you feel like no cares so why should you care, because instead of being there for you they push you away with there additude!
"you're so used to doing things alone, you keep telling yourself the same story" was meant for me. God spoke to me so much at the end. i love this

God,
I ask that you soften mine and Shera heart for each other, that you remove any blocks to our communicate. Remove any outside negativity, jealousy, influences, pride, ego, anger and resentment we may knowingly or unknowingly have towards one another. End Physical separation between us and bring us together in a harmony union. So we can rebuild our foundation on your rock. Thank you Lord God for hearing my prayer 🙏🏼 I love you. In the mighty name of Jesus amen.
This message has saved my marriage! Because I had struggled for many years and today, my wife and I have finally broke through and finally started communication. And we have laid aside the past pain we both experienced and the defense we had when a problem arose. Thank you.
Im hoping and praying for my marriage restoration to happen too .. Just had a major breakdown Please keep me in your prayers .. Happy For You and Your wife God Bless
Lauren Williams what God is doing for us. He definitely will do it for your marriage. How it began for us is as a man I had to realize that I had issues and I wasn’t a good communicator. So I had to examine what it really meant for a husband to love my wife, like Christ loves the Church. I had to work on looking at my weaknesses and not my wife’s. She was doing her best and I was pointing out her faults and not looking at mine. So if y’all can get to that place of understanding you approach it and work on yourself reading the word of God. You will have a breakthrough. God is Faithful and I am a Blessed man to have a wife who has dedicated herself to finding out how to be a wife! God Bless you and we will continue to lift you up in prayer!
Vilvit Lewis Vito thank you from my wife and I!
YES Chris! Ours was saved as well!!! We began sharing our story on FB which turned into our UA-cam story. After 19 years of marriage, I sent my husband a text saying "I think our marriage is over". We have come a long way. It hasn't been easy but it's been worth it! We both learned to let God lead. Trust in Him! Our Marriage is Worth The Fight and so is Yours!🙌💖🙏
@@MarriageWTF I just sent my husband the same text message. I want so bad for things to work but I'm tired of feeling like I'm fighting alone.
I am lying for 59 years and so needed this message today..was on the brink of loosing my will to go on..THANK YOU!!!!!!!
I’m battling infertility and this message came at the best time. I had just decided I can’t keep trying on my own and I listened to God when He told me to just wait and trust Him. Surrendering and giving it all to God. 🙌🏻
Amen
To be in battle against your own body will only produce more inflammation and issues. I had problems conceiving after my first, but truly surrendered to God and five years later had another child...then three more! 💙🙏
May the Lord touch your womb my sister, in the name of JESUS.
Children are beautiful but this world is evil n about to come to an end, focus on jesus, let him decide what's good for u n trust that, not what u want. Sounds rough n heartless but its anything but! Jesus wants ur soul and ur undivided love sometimes. Whatever gifts he has for u, trust that. Understand that we are in end times. Lucifer will deceive. Like why does this group of Christians pose the osiris x hand/arm pose? Idk, so hard waking ppl up, its frustrating to see so many ppl being led half-honestly, known as luke warm Christians who will be ignored by God. Im not saying u are, idk u! I'm saying I cant listen to or believe this guy who throws up osiris x hand signals along with the group doing it. That's not Christian. New age Christianity is not true Christianity. Watch Jeremiah Cohen n open ur eyes! A call for an uprising. Many fish. R$E. These are Jesus of Nazareth Christians, God our heavenly father, YHWH Christian's. They teach oin qhat symbolisms to look for, please find time to watch one video on each. U will learn 1000 things u didn't realize and u will wake up. Trust me, u won't regret it! Jesus has me telling ppl everyday. Im telling u
God bless you in this very difficult challenge!
Jesus is the Lord
I watched this live yesterday & I felt Pastor Steven speaking directly to me... I'm exhausted trying to get out of my current situation. When trying ends, trusting starts & miracles happen💯👌🏼🙌🏼🙏🏼
Praying for you Charmaine! This sermon spoke to me as well....trying is getting in the way of my trusting!
@@cherishrush6320 Thank you so much. God bless you🙏🏼♥️
@Jacobs it will happen.. Keep trusting in him
@jj j
Check NIV version..
John 5
6 . When Jesus saw him lying there and learned that he had been in this condition for a long time, he asked him, "Do you want to get well?"
@@jacksontengeya I need to trust Him during his time. Thank you for the encouragement ♥️🙏🏼
Please pray for me world and to ever gets this message

I was crying this whole sermon; I’ve been trying this week trying so hard and I know God sees that I just need to trust him thank you !
I need prayer so bad y’all. My marriage and personal struggles has gotten me to a very unhealthy place. To the point I’m losing hope. Prayers appreciated
We are praying for you, Wisetow10! God is with you! "He gives power to the faint, and to him who has no might he increases strength. Even youths shall not faint and be weary, and young men shall fall exhausted; but they who wait for the Lord shall renew their strength; they shall mount on wings like eagles; they shall run and not be weary; they shall walk and not faint." - Isaiah 40:29 - 31 🙏 ^EC Team

Sermon notes : John 5:1
*God suprises is with what He does and who He uses
*When you fix the symptom and not focus on the root the end is worse than the beginning
* To challenge the system is to risk disappointment
*B.S (Broken System)
*Stop inserting verses that aren’t there to keep explaining yourself
*Religion is a Broken System, Relationship Matters
*5 is a number of Grace✨
*Are you still stuck in what used to be true?
*The real work is to TRUST ❗️
*The reason God showed up for the paralyzed man was to change the entire system
* God :” I see you trying , but can you trust me”?
*Sometimes my trying gets in the way of my trusting 😭
*I can only receive certain things not by trying but by Trusting
* Let the water come to you!
*Jesus is the Living water 🙏🏽
Tnx
37 year's & I finally 🙌 just given up , I just prey over it & put them in God's hands ✋️ 🙏 🙌 👏 😊
“You cared and cared, but they didn’t care back” this message for me was related to me loss of hope for a genuine relationship with my family. I tried so long that I’ve stop praying about it. I actually feel frustrated even thinking about praying about it because it feels hopeless. God is working on me... thank you for this message
May God help you
Amen praise the holy spirit 🙌 🙏, thank you brother to be a vessel from God. Every morning I watch your videos and they all apply to my life. God bless you always in Jesus name. I'm here in Massachusetts 😊
Sometimes we get stuck in trying instead of trusting! 🔥
That was me
Can you explain to me what you mean here?
Amen blessings to all who have received the message of God. Thank you Pastor Steve for being the. It is an honor to be here EVERYDAY❤😊
I know that this message was from 2 years ago but it spoke to me like it was told just yesterday! God is amazing and knows exactly what you need, and when you need it. 🙌🏾 🙏🏾 Thank you and God bless you
I'm 38 years old. I needed this desperately right now.
I have struggled with depression for over 20 years. I believe God has a purpose for my life (as for everyone's), but sometimes my vision gets clouded. So a long time ago, I decided to simply pray "Thy will be done." My will was so broken. I was so stuck and paralyzed by fear. People would ask me "what do you want?" and I wouldn't have an answer. A little while later an answer came to my heart "I want to want." I just wanted to feel enough to feel the power of will, to get to a place where desire and action can meet so I could begin the task of trying to align my will with His. After years of "wanting to want," I finally feel a little spark of desire again. "Do you want to get well?" is a question I have an answer for! Yes! I can feel myself moving past the paralysis, and I know if God has prepared a good work in me, I want badly enough to trust Him.
Wow, it seems that God brought me here to listen to the message and to read your comment. It so easily could be me writing it.. Im praying for you and i, that God's Will be done, that we both learn to trust Him. I pray that God's Grace and Favour flow through you, in Jesus name, Amen.
@@dorothyjoycassilles1056 What a Joy (pun intended) it is to read your comment! I was so nervous to write it. To be that vulnerable and honest in a public forum, but if one person felt seen, then it is worth it! Praying that He uses us according to His will and that we listen and trust Him. Leaning on the everlasting Arms!
Every sermon I turn to, is like it was meant for me. I'm Jean from Malawi 🇲🇼, and I say this pastor hass God's Spirit 🥺
Thank you
You brought me back to Jesus. I admit, I left HIM. But listening to your preaching, I’m finally home. Thank you!
I had so many doubts and sorrows recently.
You, HIS anointment, cleared my mind.
THANK YOU!
I’m following! And I will donate!
@SECAL02 bruh are you a troll? Why are you so bitter...
@SECAL02 well if you came here looking for a fight, you will be greatly disappointed, because people are smart enough to not have to prove themselves to someone who has an affinity to causing quarrel. I also wished you watched the video because some of the stuff you are talking about have already been answered in the video. How can you argue/respond to a video if you didn't watch it? Lol
@SECAL02 my belief is challenged frequently. I don't live I fear of being challenged, it's everyday thing. Lol. If you worried about people believing in fairytales , go tell some kids that Santa doesn't exist. Or what you can do is spread the word about climate change!! That's would be productive and Darwkin would approve... maybe. You should also watch the video, but whatever.
@SECAL02 ok, but spread the word about climate change, okay! Have a blessed day!
@SECAL02 just a suggestion. Something that will make real change and help lives
North Carolina!!!! ...Teresa Sheets!!! PRAISE GOD PRAISE GOD!!! LOVE IN CHRIST!!!!
"You will receive certain things in your life from trying but only by trusting"
I've been asking myself and to God for a very long time on how to get out the loop of sins, problems thinking how to move forward, thinking how to be a best daughter. Finally, finally 😭😭😭 this message comforts me and I can't stop crying. While watching this, I keep repeating the words over and over to remind me, that God's grace and mercy is infront of me, I am just attached to the system that's why I can't hear what God says to me.
Thank you Lord.
Thank you Elevation Church for posting this. Thank you Pastor Steven. God bless you abundantly.
It's amazing how UA-cam can give use daily church... No more waiting for one day of the week! What a time we live in! Glory to God!!!
Jesus loves you !!
Pastor said I forgot I was talking to the Allstars😂😂We all need God straight up 🤘💯
There's no time in God's timing because God's timing is perfect! God's Perfect Time!
I feel like there are times where when I do give something my best effort and it seems like it never works out for me. There are even times where I want to give up on everything, but looking back I realized how God has kept me in His arms all these years, even when I didn't see, feel, or understand the situation. I just wanna thank God for being their for me when even the most loyal friends and family couldn't.🙏🏽
AMEN 🙏🏾💪🏾
I need Jesus. I lost my daughter, my best friend, I don't know how to heal or live without her.
Praying for your peace 🥺💕
Pastor Furtick your sermons are a MUST for my daily routine! God BLESS you for allowing him to use you to serve his purpose! 🙌🏾🙏🏾💙
Most of the time, we are trying to do things we just can’t do without the healing power of Jesus. When we surrender our efforts to heal ourselves and pray for Jesus to heal us, He will heal in His way and time.
It's time to stop trying in your own strength. Trust God that He knows what he's doing. Wow. Thank you, Pastor. I'm encouraged and challenged.
This! This is for me. I pray for the what ever it takes to TRUST in God for all the areas I am struggling with. Bad patterns, years of trying to be … using all these things of this world. Walk with me lord I can’t do anything without you . 🔥💪🙌🙏
Before Jesus could help him WALK, He had to help him to WANT! This statement alone was so me! Makes me cry just to hear it 💔😢💘
Bless you sweetheart!! I'd love to hear your story😊🤗❤ God is soo good, isn't he??
Dear, JESUS, help me WANT what you want for me in your name, Amen. Thank you for giving me the desire for you.
Listening at work, felt like God has been working in me the whole week and today listening to this he broke down my walls, starting crying with joy at my desk because I’m choosing to TRUST God and stop trying to do things my own way🙌🏼
I never comment on videos, but I had to say that this message is an on-time word for my life right now. I listen at this message 2-3 times every day. So thankful for this ministry.
Zsaquez Flucker I feel the exact same way. I needed this message at this time in my life...
I literally can't say I'm trying.. without getting chocked up.
I request prayers for my social anxeity thank you
i have it and let me tell you its a mind thing!! i didnt believe it i got mad at all my psychologist i swore up and down i needed medicine. finally got on the medicine and was doing super well! then when i fasted for a week the Spirit told me to stop taking my pills so i did. I was so fine! you have to trust in God. theres times where im super nervous about going out in public places alone or even talking to someone but I always say in my mind “God help me” at least control my shakiness. I still take my medicine here and there but you have to keep pushing yourself beyond your comfort zone and pray for that strength because it is hard. theres times where i still drag people with me to get gas lol.
I agree with the last comment ! But also don’t call it “your anxiety” you don’t own it . Anxiety is the enemy’s work , it’s not yours . It’s something awful that the enemy wants to convince you it’s yours so you can feel bad. Stop calling it that and pray to God for help , I will pray for you.
As soon as the enemy trys to tell you you have anxiety. Speak back NO Jesus said I was healed two thousand years ago. Get it in your heart G and the mind will transform #blessgooo Love my G all the way from NZ
Prayers and positivity
Yes Father! I WANT TO GET WELL- IVE ALWAYS WANTED TO GET WELL! I know who this was for Pastor Steven- please trust with your spiritual eyes, my words, THIS IS FOR ME, YOUR EVERY WORD OS PERSONALLY DETAILED FOR ME. DOWN TO 38 YEARS OF NOT BEING ABLE TO MOVE, MY SYRINGE WAS SPIKED BY AN ENEMY, POSING AS A FRIEND. JESUS performed a miracle on me when I was 38, healed me, I tried to tell ALOT OF PEOPLE, THE SYSTEM IS STRONGER THAN THE SYMPTOM!= NO HELP, MORE JUDGEMENTS- MORE LOST HOPE EVERY TIME I WATCH YOUR VIDEOS- I CRY TEARS OF RELIEF AND JOY THAT IVE BEEN HEARD BY YOU, THRU CHRIST. I COULD NOT GET TO THE WATER- THRU TRYING- I TRUSTED GOD WOULD HELP BRING THE WATER TO ME, AND HE DOES, EVERYDAY, THRU HIS SPIRIT,, MAKING A SENTENCE IN A CONVERSATION- OF PEOPLE PASSING BY, THE MESSAGE I NEEDED TO HEAR, IS LOUDER. SAME WITH MUSIC, EVERYTHING/EVERYONE I ENCOUNTER IS A STRONG MESSAGE.. THIS ID DEFINITELY A MESSAGE OF TRUST AND NOT TRYING, TRYING SEEMS USELESS. I TEUST HIM, BEFORE I TRUST MEDICINE, DOCTORS, LABELS, TREATMENT CENTERS, AND WHO I AM, AND NOT THE OPINIONS OF OTHERS. 38 YEARS IS A LONG TIME- I WILL BE 41 IN 2 WEEKS, THANK THE LORD- ITS TIME FOR REST!
please pray for me, i am struggling so hard with my Christian walk and my connection with God.. I'm really trying
God will see you through :) trust Him and pray. Mark 9: 24b says: 'and said so with tears, Lord, I believe, help thou mine unbelief'. God knows this world tries to choke your belief in and relationship with Him (Matt 13), but even with all the lingering doubt and distractions the devil surrounds you with, pray and seek His face and He will be a lamp unto your Christian walk and path and it will be worth it!! He loves you!! Always remember that :)
🙏🏾💪🏾
God gives you strength you can do it believe it and you will see God taking you through
I am from San Antonio Texas. Pastor Stephen, THANK YOU for doing what you do everyday!!! I listen to your sermons every morning driving into work. When I get to work I jot down notes. At night I review what I wrote down and pull my Bible out and start to read.... THANK YOU for always reminding me that Jesus has not left me! I pray his hand over you and your family always!!! Thank you🙏
Thank you for sharing your testimony with us! We are glad to know the Lord has been faithful to you.🧡🙏🏽
Asking for as much prayer for my sister her her lungs are very weak and I just ask to unite with me in prayer over her life so she can have the ability to breath on her own without difficulty for her lungs to be restored today she's currently Very weak but just help me pray over her !!!
I feel her pain.. I have bronchitis very bad right now for almost 3 weeks.. So I pray for her for healing and her lungs to be filled with the holy spirit and not mucous... I pray her lungs will be healthy and made whole and restored in Jesus name.. May Gods will be done....
And I pray that God may restore and bring healing to you, thank you so much !
@@melisapina1364 amen sister..... I'm praying and believing in God for restoration of your sisters lungs and mine... With God all things are possible.... Praise the LORD in good times and bad times.
"Tone is everything!"
SO TRUE!
there aren't enough emojis in this hemisphere to denote the humility of my (broken) heart 💔
Praise the Lord. I believe it is important to support Christian witness on social media. It is a blessing to be able to accesses sermons, testimonies, worship songs and Bible teachings from a PC or phone at any time now. Thank God for modern technology.
I'm from Brazil and all I can say here is that when God need to spoke to us he will do it, no matter when and no matter if it happen in the middle of the dawn in another country throught a computer screen. I felt that every single word was totally for me, and I'm thankful for the new chapter of my life that I know it will begin. Thank you Pastor for being an instrument in the hands of God, helping people change their lifes. May God bless you and bless this amazing church that I love so much
You spoke the words I've been feeling for 2 years. I was so excited and I've started to think I was crazy. I'm ready Lord. This is my word
I 💙 this sermon...thank you Lord for using Pastor Steven Furtick for always trying to deliver your truth...I ask you to please help me stop trying but to truly trust you in all things especially my struggles and battles in JESUS NAME AMEN!!!! 🙏🙌🙏
I need prayer. Pray for me dealing with my depression and lack of will to live. I'm struggling to trust God in the middle of my storm. So please lift me up!!
Jacorey Norwood praying that you will experience the peace of God that surpasses all understanding and know that you are enough because Jesus is! You were brought to this world for a purpose don’t give up! The Lord is with you!
You have to bind that spirit of depression from your life.Take the authority that God has given you..
Lord, God, please encourage Jacorey to trust in you completely. Encourage Jacorey to want to live and show your truth - that Jacorey was placed on this earth to fulfill a special and wonderful purpose for you! In your name we pray, Amen!!! May God bless you.
Keep fighting sweetie! I'm proof that it changes overnight. I asked Him 'Jesus it's too big for me you gotta take it', and He did. Hang on baby. 🙏🏻💖🕊
Jacorey Norwood.... Don't give up but give in to Jesus.....pray without ceasing...... I've tried many times to end my life... It's not worth it, I repented of my past and look forward to the future..... Depression if not dealt with will lead you to your grave... Don't let the devil lie to you and make you feel worthless.... You were fearfully and wonderfully made bible says.... The devil comes to kill, steal and destroy... Jesus says I am the way, the truth and the life .. Fight hard... Bend a knee and ask God for help... Use bible affirmations that remind you that God loves you , stay strong and be blessed and don't let that glass get half full or full.. It's good to vent and ask others for help....
Proverbs 13:12 (NLT) Hope deferred makes the heart sick, but a dream fulfilled is a tree of life.
This message has the power to change your perspective on what it looks like to trust in God. I’ll be thinking about and applying this to my life all week long. Love this word!
Please pray for our little town a week ago we lost 2 young boys to a tragic car accident and 2 were hospitalized with life threating injuries and pray for the first responders and the truck driver involved in the accident
God knows how long we have tried to get out of the situation we are in..Mayb it has taken years . May today be the end of our struggle. Its enough! Disappointment will never prevent us from seeing our help that is in front of us.
Jesus fix the broken system. May we pick our mats and walk again.
Amen
Amen
@SECAL02 you're a sad being with too much free time
Lord Jesus came to save the sinners that know they need a god. not the rightous that need nothing including a god.
I' m not a writer. In fact my English teacher hated me. I was too busy socializing to focus on literature. But, life experiences and my sister pushed me to blog, post, and write a novel about this. It seemed like I was the only one spreading this message. I'm so grateful someone with a platform like yours shared it as well. We see so many posts that tell us it's all up to us, and people don't believe how hard some of us are trying when there's no fruit to show from our effort. They think they must've tried harder or deserved it more if their health, or their situation is more secure, and more fruitful. I wrote a novel about how hard I tried to find love, to get healed, to get better, to feel needed in this world, to find a purpose, and what kind of destructive, reckless choices I made when no matter how hard I tried my efforts failed. When all you hear is you're not trying hard enough, but you know you are, and you know you've tried everything even though no one see's or believes, you feel even more defeated, because no one has the answer. So, thankyou with all my heart for this! God is using you in such a beautiful way.
I needed this again today. Thank you! Glory to God
i been trying this whole year man.. and these kids are really trying my nerves yall please send extra prayers for me
Trust Me, I'm Trying 😭😭 😭 But Lord I Trust You 🙏
I never comment just a watcher. This one is for me ! Thank you JESUS!
Heal my will, a prayer I didn't know I needed to pray.
3 years ago you preached this message an today 3 years later God allow the sermon to come touch me thank You God
This came just when I needed it. Dont stress guys. He knows exactly what you need and it will ALWAYS come on time. God bless.
Kyley hughes. Amen bless you
"Be Still..." I heard these words while I was "trying" to decide if I should save my marriage. I was "trying" to understand how I could forgive when the Trust was broken. How can I ever Trust my husband of 19 years again??? My mind was racing at 430am on a Sat morning. I was "trying" to control my mind, and not letting my mind control me. I was just getting more upset... then I felt this warmth come over me and heard "Be Still"... Honestly thought I was loosing my sh*t. I then heard "Be Still" 3 more times in the next 48 hours, one of them being in the church sermon the following morning. I searched this term in the Bible "Be Still And Know, I Am God" Palms 46:10. When I learned to quiet my mind, Be Still, Trust God, and allow Him to lead. My husband is now a true man of God. We stopped "trying" to control our lives, and we give it all to GOD. And we knew we have been called to share our story. Our marriage is Worth The Fight! TRUST IN HIM!!!🙌🙌🙌
He's trying to help me be a better mom ! HALLELUJA
I've cried so hard! I've been feeling depressed because I don't know WHAT TO DO in this Covid season!!!! I need to TRUST HIM!!!!
Trust me I’m TRYING!!!
I am trying trust me I'm trying my hardest but we got to trust in Jesus Jesus I trust in you
Lord, I heard you through your good servant. Keep preaching Pastor Steven Furtic🙌🇿🇦
I'm in Las Vegas! I am so thankful for you and Elevation!! I hear you everyday! What a blessing that teaches and inspires! You confirm God's purpose for me!! Thank you 💜😊
I needed to hear this, am at point where l cannot even express myself in prayer, thank you so much
Succeed Succie it’s ok, GOD knows your heart ❤️ even tears are Prayers ❤️
GOD bless!!!❤️❤️❤️
Every time I feel like i can’t make it anymore i run to these sermons and they always turn my life around 🥺 when I feel like giving up I get filled up with these wonderful sermons May God bless you🙏🏿
This message spoke to me on a different level. It felt like he was talking to me. I'm 17, going through teenage problems. My anxiety about how I feel like I'm not good enough in someones eyes has made me start to develop poor and negative habits...
I know that this isn't the life God intended for me to live and I feel like he brought me to this message. I'd been trying so hard for so long to work through my silly issues without really fully trusting that he's got my back.
Kayla Ray your issues aren’t “silly”. You may be surprised at how many people are going through the same thing you are. God definitely has your back and cares about your issues. You are enough.
Same
This sermon spoke to me as an answer from GOD. I tried hard to seek Him, I struggled every morning to get up and spend time with Him. Everyone, including my mom as a church leader said I'm not enough, that what I have tried is nothing, so I tried harder and harder but never got to where I'm meant to be. I lost my hope and trust for GOD. I cried and complained and lashed out at HIm, but He answered me with forgiveness, mercy, love, and gentleness. At least I know I can be honest with Jesus, not trying to put a strong facade.
I need prayers for my Hindu dad and as I got board exams this year I need to score well
This is unlike any sermon I’ve heard preached anywhere. REAL. Thank you, pastor. Still believing something that isn’t true anymore...moving into Truth
Your preachings are always good, everyone understands them!!! Even when you think you didn't do good, God is using you for someone
I swing big but I miss a lot. But trust me I’m trying.
watching from Nairobi ,Kenya what a powerful message this is
Hey, Caleb! We appreciate you sharing with us and being part of our eFam in Kenya😀
^EC Team
I have been trying but now I will trust him
John 5- When we can't get to THE Water, The Living Water comes to us. I love how Pastor pointed out Ch4 and Jesus told that woman at the well He was the living water and now Jesus was showing us HE is The Living Water!!! God is so good.
One of My favorite Christian Channels is Living Waters!!
We are still listening to your sermons and praising him with you even to the end please don't cut it off so early.thanks❤
Took me 6 years to get my associates and I wanted to just give up but I’m almost finished I have one semester left I listen to your sermons almost everyday and your sermons really help me through so much !!!
Tracey Harris sis keep going, God will help you through it... took me 4 years for my associates, another 3 years for my bachelors .. graduated high honors for both.. and currently working on my masters which would be an additional 2 years.. all while working full time, living on my own and honoring my ministries..
I'm in the same boat with you. I was drifting and just taking a class here or there and I thought I wanted to do nursing. However, I decided that it wasn't for me. Now I'm pursuing an associates in physical therapist aid. Just keep on keeping on and pray to God. I know that he will pull us through towards our purpose.
@@esterf7064 I applaud your hard work we just got to pray for each other!
Michael Weeezeee it is definitely all God! I did change my major a few times during my associates trying to figure where God wanted me to do. I went part time.. so I know how you feel.. we definitely have to pray for each other.
Hardest thing to do when you have been through so much disappointment and pain. "TRUST"
"Let the water come to you." So. Good.
Yes !!!! I’m always trying and I get weary sometimes from trying , but I never been a quitter. Trust in God and prayers!!! Have a bless day!
Trying and trusting goes hand in hand....maintaining that is the problem. I'm not going to give up. Great sermon.
When you fix the symptom without addressing the system that created the system, the end is worse than the beginning 💯
Sometimes I feel like I take matters into my own hands when it comes to making important decisions. However I never realized until after the fact that because of the choice I've made I end up hurting something or someone in the process. Father please help guide me in you will.🙏🏼
Amen I'm that person that needed this Amen praise God trust him amen tyj ty pastor furtick for this encouragement amen
I am in seasons of disappointment for many things in my life.
I have always heard obedience=healing.
This is different.
I am trying to trust God more.
God is good all the time- your sermons speak to me in helping to serve his purpose and gain clarity. He is the only one whom I can rely on to repair my relationship with the woman of my life, my wife to be. As an OTR Trucker, I’m far away from her and can only support her from afar and we need God’s help- He is the ONLY one who can do this and I wouldn’t have it any other way. Because when He works, me makes miracles- I need his love because he’s blessed me with this beautiful soul whom I need in my life. He found her for me and she for me. Amen
I have heard many messages from Him....... But this by far is my personal favorite!!! I am trying!!!
6 years ago, not long after I gave my life to Jesus, I tried so hard to live a better life. 6 years ago, I never understood why every time I opened God’s Word, God led my eyes to verses about faith and “O you of little faith” ... I prayed thousands of prayers. I tried. I tried. I tired. I almost died, my marriage almost ended, career going nowhere. And today, 6 years later. I got the message. I repented of not trusting God. I finally decide to trust God, to pick up my mat, and walk with Jesus. Hallelujah! I feel so free now. God did shock the waters! Thank you God for Pastor Furtick for this incredible life changing message. Pray that I live a true authentic life for God. Bless Our God! Thank you Jesus Our Lord and Savior!
"This isn't about trying, this is about TRUSTING" - I've been seeing this play out in my life more and more every day. I'm believing God for 100% healing in my will. I trust you Lord!
