Knocking Through The No | Pastor Steven Furtick | Elevation Church
There's a difference between disappointment and bitterness. Can you forgive it? Can you move past it? Can you give it to God to move through it?
You are a blessing Pastor Steven 🙏🏻 i need prayers for God's plan to be revealed in each area of my life. God bless you, greetings from Albania 🇦🇱 ❤
GOD BLESS, thank you guys so much!
I forgive because He forgave Me, however My Family has been going through it. The attacks have been daily, which I forgive daily, but the pain keeps increasing. The hard part is the pain…
This sermon is deep!!! Listening to this, I'm encouraged because God lovingly pursues us even deep in to the trenches of our disappointments... Giving us hope and strength.... One day wins
By HIS Grace. 🙏🕊️💯
I met someone today at service and sat by their family during service. He felt like the Lord abandoned him and didn’t hear him anymore. To anyone who feels that way, I can stand today saying that the Lord hears you, the Lord loves you, and he cares more about your soul than you could ever imagine. Sometimes He allows trials into our lives to bring us closer to him. He cares more about your soul and your relationship with him than you could ever imagine. Don’t allow the words of negativity, the doubt, the bitterness or the hurt control your life, instead remember the power of 24. Take in one breath and breathe out a word of praise to the God who gave you that breath. If you aren’t dead, God is not done.
Thank you
Absolutely 💯💯💯
Thank you
❤ Amen ❤
🙏🏻🙏🏻🙏🏻🙏🏻🙏🏻🙏🏻🙏🏻

Thank you. By Faith, I will receive this!
To the woman who sat behind me today in church and told me, “ God is telling me to tell you, he hears you,” thank you. ❤ from the bottom of my heart thank you. It was right before the sermon and pastor spoke of a Elijah prophesying the woman to have a son. My husband and I have been trying for a baby for a few years. And last year I basically lost hope. The woman today and this sermon gave me a new found hope and love of god. I was asking for a sign and he delivered. This was one of the best sermons to me, it felt like god was speaking to me. ❤ thank you
May God bless your womb this year. Hold on to His voice through it all.
Grateful you were so divinely encouraged! Rest and receive your inheritance of children and every blessing Jesus paid for at the cross 🙌🏻✝️❤️ SO BE IT UNTO YOU ACCORDING TO THE LORD’S WORD!
@@leigh0021 thank you 🙏🏾

Welcome to the family of God!
FROM NORTHWEST IOWA HERE PLease pray for my single parent family I am a single mother of 2 young children, often alone, and asking for prayer for my small family for blessings, protection, sovereignty, grace, hope, peace, mercy, forgiveness and abounding and a blessed future for my children and me. Also that I raise them with everything I have and am able, to grow & to live in the way of the Lord so they will not depart from that way. Love in 2024 and all years to come. Thank you. Amen 🙏♥️✝️🎉🕯️
God will restore and provide every need you have because of your humbleness!
I have been fighting my addictions for many years, decades in fact. I was incarcerated one year ago for the praying for the strength to defeat those chains holding me prisoner. Here I am a year later looking for the door to helping youngsters to see that there is hope for those that are born into a hopeless environment. Thank you Lord for knocking and you Pastor for relaying His Word to help me see that I am qualified to do God's work even when society doesn't see my worth because of the poor choices of my past. I see today how much better life can be when I make room for God's plan to work in my life! Thank you Thank you Thank you!!! Today's message was for me 💯
I made a sticky note. God is not against me. He is in it with me. Working through me. Fighting for me. I have to tell myself this daily . Thank you for sharing.
I received jesus!! Yeaaah, today is my day. Received from South Africa 😊
On 27th this month,on my birthday my sister gifted me this sermon as my birthday present.
😢,Tears of joy because I now know how Jesus has been knocking on my door over and over and what I need to do.
Live long pastor Steven.

We fight together,
I pray that the lord be with you
❤️ same
Amen 🙏 in Jesus name
Trust in Gods timing sis 🙏
Amen
Them sticky notes are life changing tho ...not little by any means ...grateful for the word that flows through here between my own personal studies, elevation, potters house,Joyce Meyer and my home church I am one well fed Christian ❤ and deeply grateful to God for it
Lately I've noticed that the message that is spoken by God through one source is backed up or expanded upon by the others... Most often on the same Sunday. I've also been watching videos that were published just before the pandemic because I feel God is saying that I need to look back and see that no matter what happens, even if it feels like the world is paused, that He is working "IT" out... Whatever the "IT" is...

Today is my day, my door is open. I receive you Jesus!
I came across your sermons and been listening almost daily for weeks now. Today though, today had me in tears. Because I have been saying no, to the possibility of being married again. Hurt after hurt, disappointments galore, I said no, not gonna happen. But I open the door and believe it's going to happen this time next year by God's goodness and grace.
I came across Pastor Futick’s sermons in 2018. I am still listening! May God bless you.
I came across Pastor Futick’s sermons in 2018. I am still listening! May God bless you.
For more than a year I have been saying no to the possibility of spending time with a wonderful man because I know it might turn into marriage.. I have prayed for a husband and then when the possibility exists I realise that I have let my hurt and disappointment over past relationships kill my hope for the future.
Lately I feel like God has been giving me glimpses, hints and previews of what is possible. He is teaching about having hope and expectations.
I feel that God is opening my eyes and heart, getting me ready to be in a relationship, showing me how not to repeat my past mistakes, maturing me in my relationship with Him first then others, growing my abilities and helping me to learn skills to change my life.
In many areas of my life I feel like He is telling me that opening up to hope means being open to receiving blessings along with having wisdom about coping with disappointment.i need to keep on knocking, try again. We need to work together as the team we were meant to be.
I hope you are able to overcome any obstacles in front of you in your journey towards marriage. Step thru the doorway and allow God to work, trusting that He knows what He is doing in every area of your life and will direct your steps along the way.
Blessings from South Eastern Australia, Dot
I have had those thoughts. I don't want to get hurt again. It devastated me last time. I don't trust either.

Ayy im one of the first comments god is good 👍🏼
I am turning 25 and I am still unmarried… my greatest desire in life is to be a wife and mother. I play piano and ukulele to one day sing to my babies, I cook and love homemaking… my dream job (that God has already blessed me with) was my dream job simply because it would allow me to balance work and home - the flexibility of working from home and maternity leave is fantastic. I’m my truest self that God knows when I’m looking after others and caring for others and yet the disappointments are long and heavy behind me… I’ve had hope, and each time it has turned to disappointment. Everything I do in my life is to prepare for a home, to be a good wife and mother, to have children… a family… it hurts so much. I praise and thank God for what He’s going to do! This pain will be my story one day to share with others about the faithfulness and goodness of God. I haven’t lost hope or praise in God… but it’s hard… I am in pain and the disappointment is heavy on my chest. Just because I have hope, it doesn’t mean the waiting isn’t painful. It feels as though everyone is married and with children… but when will it be my turn?
Even if they don’t call my name I’m called for greatness through the lord!!! Thank you Jesus ❤
I've prayed for 'us' .. if it's God's will and if we have His grace for it then about this time next year we will together be praise our Lord Jesus Christ through His Spirit for His glory!
Pastor Steven is the Taylor Swift of preachers 🧡🧡🧡
I had to rewatch again today..I've been through alot of disappointment. We lost our dad and sister in the end of December, also my marriage is falling apart..I can't bring my family back but need prayers for my marriage..I love my husband..I believe God is telling me not to give up but pray on how to speak to my husband..Thank You Pastor Furtick for this message🌼
Hi Tonia - We are so glad the Lord spoke to you through this message. We are lifting you up in prayer today and believing in God's restoration of your marriage and peace in your grief. We are sorry for your recent losses of your father and sister. and that your marriage is struggling. We know that's not easy. 🙏

I love that word of God it’s for all that believes and for all who don’t yet believe for Jesus died for the unbelievers for they are lost with Jesus help us all do more for Jesus and love more live a good Christian life. Amen 😢
God has been beating on my door forever & I thought I was almost there til he chased me into the most terrifying position I've ever been in.. God can use me as a puppet cuz I surrender All 🙏
Im going HIGHER IN 2024🎉❤
I received the biggest blessing of my life 3 1/2 years ago during COVID. I was terrified and had extreme PPD and PPA. Through this I prayed, praised, pleaded and begged to hear him. Nothing! I felt forgotten. I am still dealing with that and the anxiety of the times. As well as doubt of a promise I was certain would happen in the delivery room. I swore I heard it from him but it didn’t happen. The father of my Elijah has not yet been saved. I now don’t know how to fully believe in this. I know I want to.
I rededicated my life today...i claimed the promise of this time next year God is going to do a great thing Amen
Today is my day I receive Jesus🎉
Pastor you have a whole lifetime left ahead of you, so please hold on to your seat cuz God just has you barely out the door on your Mission.. God bless you 🙏
31:40 -This is MY biggest struggle.Due to problems with money,career, 'validation'...I have let DISAPPOINTMENT become bitterness...and I can feel it.(I REALLY am not proud of it)....Thanks Paster Steve ...AGAIN...EVERY WEEK....you help me get through another week and break down another 🧱
After this sermon I received jesus..
Love in 2024 and all years to come. Thank you. Amen
