Anyone watching this in 2024? God bless
I'm just watching
I m watching
Yes
Wow!!! I wish i had heard this message when i was young. Now i am in recovery from addiction and TODAY I AM CHAINED TO GRACE!!!!
Hi how you recover ? I'm in trouble please help me
VIRAL TV production hello. Look for help. Talk to people. Slowly stop doing it for a few hours and then days and you’ll slowly get better. Stay strong. Pray. I’ll pray for you. God bless you
There's some things that you won't realize until you're older even if you heard this message when you were younger it probably would have helped it's not that you're wiser and you've been through things and you know that God's there my opinion you live and you learn
Amen
Grace John 1
Wow.. this hit me like when my phone fell on my face a few nights ago.
When he says, "when Worship becomes your choice it becomes a habit, and it's become automatic, worship is not what I do , it's WHO I AM!
Wow!
Thank you JESUS
I am chained to grace🙂🙂🙂🙂
Law came by Moses, grace and truth through gods son Jesus Christ. John 1
@@ericaharley9328 'Viced Rhino' just made another 'Questions for Christians'-Video. If you are or wanna become a Christian, then the Questions from 'Questions for Christians' are Question for you, right? I mean, its literally in the title and in the grammar. Yes?
@@ericaharley9328 Yes but Jesus did also say if you LOVE me KEEP (aka obey) my commandments. The Ten Commandments written on the heart isn’t bad. It’s what right doing is all about! Ordinances of the LAW OF MOSES are different indeed.
The Ten Commandments were written on BLUE sapphire like stone, Jesus the lamb of God cleanses us by the RED blood of the lamb (Christ).
Blue is the law
+
Red is grace by the blood
=
Purple was the ROYAL garments. Hence the symbolic reason the Romans put a purple robe on Christ.
This proves that the Ten Commandments law and grace are always together from the beginning until the end mixing into the colours forming purple as Christ our King.
🙏
Bro I’m 24 and this hit hard.

I was about to give in to my addiction tonight, but I decided to search up a word. A word that would give me the strength to stand firm as a believe and seek his face. Thank you for not being afraid to get into the truth. This message is perfect for the youth. I want to seek God, I want to find him
Praying for you, Katherine. God definitely has a plan for your life! ^SF Team
Who is watching this in 2020?
I am a Teen. Very powerful

Am 19, and I found it 2 years ago
Pastor Steven is truly Godsent
How does this not have 100000000000000 views?
I told myself I was gonna watch 5 minutes of this message, I ended up watching the whole 37:46 of it, truly and powerful message led by a great speaker/interpreter.
I really needed this. Thank you. “I am not a slave to sin or fear, I am a Child of God” ❤️❤️
Amen to you
God has defeated the devil every time . in my life , the devil has attacked , the devil put chains on me but first , i did it to myself . BUT GOD already had chains on me . He is never letting me go but now my choices has to be made in the name of God . i have to put my peace in God . the devil will let go when i truly let God work but even when sometimes the devil won’t ease up , MY GOD WILL BREAK MY CHAINS , MY GOD WILL KEEP ME FROM THE DEVIL FOR HIS CHAINS ARE STRONGER .
This was so powerful. Coming from a teen who has chains of anxiety and depression I fight hard to be strong enough, but now I know to fight to break those chains and be stronger. All things are possible through Christ, Amen.
Oh my, today's choices will become tomorrow's chains.. This dude preached right to me!! It's the little choices.. And choices become habits. Then it's automatic, then we don't have a choice and it's now our identity. Then it's our nature. Chains. 😥
For too long I was chained to my mistakes but I choose to be chained to grace Through Jesus Christ Our Lord and saviour
I love god. Because of him I was able to see that dating my uncle was wrong. without him i'd be in jail. Hallelujah.
Such a powerful message. As a 40 year old, this is exactly what I needed now.
Krystal W I feel the same way. And I’m 40 as well. Thank God we are chained to GRACE.
lol im 64 and this spoke to me @@charlettehayes7923
"these chains on my feet don't determine my joy bcuz my purpose is to fulfill God's calling on my life"
This message is the first I willingly watched. I am struggling with something, but this message was God talking to me. Thankyou Jesus! You are a living God!
Pastor Steven is ripped & Blessed like David, Lots of love from Nepal
Yes I want to be chained to Grace through the power of Christ.Amen and thank you Jesus.
God Bless you , Mr. Furtick 🕊
I thank God for youth pastors and youth speakers. I used to be one, speaking in schools across the country, youth camps, etc; I feel that our youth need to hear from "Fathers" in ministry from time to time....js
Powerful as always. Thank you, Jesus for your grace! 👑♥️
I believe this was for me I needed this the most.
Preach pastor Steven
I am blessed, tears fall down on my cheeks and now by the help of the Holy Spirit, I will declare that I am free from those chains. Thanks for the word of God that reminds me. God bless.
God knows what we need in our life and although we make mistakes as long as we learn to listen to God and take in the truth from the Lord we will let go of those evil chains and receive the strongest chains and those are the chains of the Lord. So dear Heavenly Father in Heaven I choose you God even if that means till death. My Lord I And your child and your servant, my God I choose you and I want you God. Please forgive me for all of my sins .. I know i have done bad so so bad and have thought horrible things so my dear Lord in Heaven please forgive me God. Dear God because I choose you today today and forever and forever. My dear Lord I am sorry for all the wrong I have done. Dear God please release me from these chains of evil God whatever is holding me back please release me and allow me to fulfill my destiny in your name my dear Lord God. ♥️ Amen 🙏🏾🙏🏾🙏🏾
Best choice ever when I looked to Christ instead of circumstances!
I'm 50 and it was powerful to me.
I am 28 yrs of age,and this message if for me , so help us lord.
So powerful 😭 I played this for Church today. My Teen's and I were so moved. Thank you Jesus 🙌 Youth Convention at Home 🙌❤️🙌
Dear Pastor Furtick, I'm writing this to humbly ask for your prayers for my family and myself.. In the past several months I've went from a almost 4yr drug addiction to being baptized 3 weeks ago and up until my baptismal I was focused and faithful, remaining very strong and literally the day after i was baptized I've been attacked on a daily basis in every area of my life, I've been strong in most areas but have struggled in others and have been praying, reading the bible, and it's been very trying, threw things that came easily before are very hard to figure out now, The Lord has brought me this far for a reason and I refuse to turn back as be unfaithful now, but I know that i need all the strength and prayer i can get and you've been a huge reason for me turning it all over to the Lord so I'm kindly asking for anything you can suggest or just pray for, I don't wanna let God down, my fiancee, my beautiful daughters and family down and also everyone that has gathered around me and to anyone in the future that will benefit from this testimony of God's power and love, his love is so powerful and I refuse to be a failure given his grace.. Thank you
Eric Atchison i know how you must be struggling through.. i don't know who you are and where you are from..but i'll be praying for you and for your strenght. keep faith and believe that God is good and don't ever listen to devil... i know you are gonna win in jesus name Amen.
If the devil isn't messing with you, he doesn't consider you a threat.
You'll never be a failure to God. He loves you in the good and the bad. Know that what you're going through isn't by mistake and that God's got you and your situation covered.
God will develop you to a point where you realise you can't let Him down. He knows every little imperfection in all of us, and He is faithful. I pray you will grow in Christ Jesus, Amen.
Hey, brother. I am sorry for the pain you are experiencing.. I am more sorry for the devil because you are chained to grace. I was so excited to be baptized as an adult, too! And guess what... since that very day, about a year and three months ago.. it has been one of the most trying years of my life. I am making the very choices Furtick talked about.. and my mind is becoming freed every day, my identity becomong truer, and my acceptance of God's love more abundant.. and so much more. A few months ago, when I felt like everything was falling apart, I told my friend, "I feel like Satan is winning", and she said, "Satan is not winning. He doesn't have that kind of power." Keep pressing in.. God is good, God LOVES you, and He will not let you go. Psalm 139.
Eric Atchison praying now! From my own experience, do NOT forget these 3 words no matter what: don't give up!! Time plus walking with Christ & gaining freedom (sometimes little by little) will bring gains.
Practice doesn't make perfect. It makes permanent
wow i really needed to find this preacher.
What human need first is Jesus who paid the price of the sin for anyone want to believe in his sacrifice.
Sometimes, choices are really misleading.. I've been a victim of wrong choices.. but today.. God sent me here.. and made me realize that I'm chained to Grace! Thank you Pastor :)
Thank you Pastor, I'm not a teenager but this Pertians to me so much, also thru you God has given me a tool to mold my teenager in a way not even my parent's could, Couse they did not know. I love you in the perfect pure love of God Pastor Furtik, keep moving Fwd with this wonderful ministry. God let me find one day this channel to rescue me ,to become better for his honor and glory. God bless you!
I'm 14 and I'm happy I came across this video. I started to focus on what people thought of me a lot never went to church as much as I used to. I felt like I was chained but no matter what I had a feeling to go to church and hear the word. And from this video I know why because I'm chained to God, im chained to grace as much as I tried to focus on other things I would still come back to Chris and I am very thankful because I'm sick with him and I'm glad he came into my life. God love's you💞.
May God never let's us go back to our old lives, yes backward never, but forwards ever for his glory amen
You become what you repeatedly do. Choices become habits! Jesus!
I’m 13 and some of the things he said hit so so hard. He is amazing at communicating with younger audiences and making it easy to understand. Love this so much!
Lord, Thank you for setting me free❤❤
Thanks for your message. I am 59 and I am glad I watched it
It was a Really good messege, thank you lord, we serve a amazing god, god bless yall brothers and sisters in Christ,
I’m only 12, and I know I have done a lot of things I shouldn’t have done. This message saved me 🙏 thank you mom for sending me this video and thank you Lord for sending him this message. I now know that I can either stay in my chains and become a slave, or I can be in my chains and still give God glory!
I needed to hear this thank you Lord for speaking through him today.
Amen!! Chained to Grace!! Thank you Jesus!!
Thank God for this message! It reminds me that I can never outrun God. Choose to be chained to God’s grace!💘💗
Amen I'm chained to the grace of God!!! I am set free
with not going to church I've been pushing my church's sermons off and pretend that I was ok ignoring that but in times like these I know I need him. These have helped thank you!
Me too
Amen. God is my Father, my friend and my judge.
I’m a teen My parents are pastors and always tell me Jesus loves me and to read the Bible more I don’t know why but today I chose to read the Bible and look at preachings for teenagers on my own I can’t wait to hear it
Catalina we are so glad you are tuned in! We are praying right now that God would continue to speak to you and encourage you as you watch these messages. 🧡Thanks for being part of our online family! ^SF Team
@@stevenfurtick thanks god bless 🙏🏼
I never watch sermons online. I grew up in church but I have not been to a service or been able to sit through a sermon in years. For some reason I randomly just got the thought to watch a sermon on UA-cam. & I’ve been struggling with addiction and so this sermon was something I feel like I was truly meant to hear and made me feel very emotional. Thank you.
You guys are just amazing... this sermon made me cry... i cry out to the lord Jesus to break my chains of sins...
THIS WAS A POWERFUL AND AN AMAZING MESSAGE. I’m thankful I watched it 🥺🤍🙏🏽
I should not be told at school to leave. None of efforts should be wasted. School should not feel like jail. Amen.
Revelation!!!!!! this sermon blowed my mind!!!!
Amen to the “word”🙏 Be chained to Grace❤️❤️❤️
Discovered him recently and I m touched by his sermons 💘😭
this was an amazing message and I thank God for leading me here today. We should not only praise god when things get tough, but through all situations. The more we praise the more we are connecting ourselves to god and his blessings. Praise is like a sweet aroma to him. Today I am making a choice to break the chains of social anxiety, shyness, fear and connecting myself to Gods chains of grace. His chains will never leave me in the darkness and will ensure that no matter how far I may stray he will always be able to pull me back to the light. I thank u Lord for my life and how far you have brought me. You’ve seen me through so many tough situations and always have worked things out in my behalf. I thank u for the breath of life each and every single morning and I pray that every day will be a new opportunity to enjoy your grace and mercies. I pray for my family, friends, and anyone around the world who is struggling with their chains and that you may set them free. In Jesus name I pray, amen ❤️
Jesus is forever Victorious! His Grace and lovingkindness made all the crooked places straight and what was once a shameful moment for me, He turned it around and showed me how He used those moments to bring me into His Glorious Salvation. I am chained to walking the path He has designed for me! Everyday is marvelous and spectacular and I will never look back, for I am saved by the blood!💕💕💕
I will make a choice to worship God with heart
When I was getting my suit tailored the tailor made a comment that went like this: Do you know why the clothing industry is changing so much? why I asked, he replied, one of the reasons is because adults began dressing like teenagers and when teenagers see their parents dressing like them, they began to make changes because their embarrassed. Listen to your children if they let you know your out of place in dressing.
Even in my chains I'm free. This 1 line made me look back at my life. A brief on my testimony: I grew up in a faithless family. I'm the only Christian in my bloodline. I had soooo many chains on me, and when I turned 21 after leaving home, I came across a lady I'd never met in my life, who asked to pray for me, me being a nice person not having the word NO in my vocab, I said YES. On this day, she spoke to me like she knew me from a child, she spoke my struggles and health issues and family conflict to me, this was the day I felt Jesus' power. I stood up straight, my eyes were cleansed, my lungs took the biggest breath I had ever taken and a few other things. My point is, I'm 26 as of a couple days ago, living alone, no family, no people around me due to climbing from 2 rock bottoms in 1 year, but that 1 line. Even in my chains, I'm free. 🤯🙏🏼❤
“ If you make this GOD , YOUR GOD ! Nothing on earth can move you “ 😭🙌🏽
This message is great! Hallelujah!!! Thank YOU Jesus for Your Word of wisdom. God bless and increase your anointing Pastor Steven. I'm blessed!
I'm thankful because I watched this. Thank You Lord 💓
The devil chains us, but God frees us!! Galatians 5:1 It is for freedom that Christ has set us free, do not allow yourselves to become slaves again!! The example of chain is powerful to be used for the devil, but not for God. He gives us freedom, and wants us to love Him out of free will, He will never force us!!
First time I've felt something in awhile spiritually
I love his preaching
TODY I AM CHAINED TO GRACE!!!!
PRASIE BE TO GOD THE FATHER, GOD THE SON, AND GOD THE HOLY SPIRIT, THREE IN ONE
Just tested positive for Covid and felt the need to hear a word. My goodness when I tell you the Lord gave me all I needed to hear and understand…
The circumstance doesn’t define you or decide your fate, it’s what you choose to to make ur fate… it’s the Lord. 🙌🏻 All praise to the mighty King 🔥🕊🙌🏻🙌🏻
This man here is doing a great job . I'm eleven almost twelve but I feel all he talks about I literally needed this
Pray for me please...
TevorNaga Jinx Dear Lord, pray for Tevor right now. I don't know what he needs but you do and he it's counting on you in Jesus name Amen.
Prayers for you.

What a great message. God bless Elevation Church! And Amen to the being an example for my parents. I'm 27 I've battled so much but my dad sees me changing and now he's letting the Lord fix him from the inside out Amen! Jesus is so amazing. No matter where I go I will always be free with the power of the Lord!
God jehovah spoke threw him ....I'm braking thoes chains amen
wow. absolutely enlightening and eye opening. powerful words, powerful message.
I am not a teen I am 11 but this powerful especially for my 9 year old brother
Jeremiah 29:11 hand onto this scripture, it's Gods promise to you if you truly commit your life to Him and remember "you can do all things through Christ Who strengthens you" I hope you're also involved in a good whole Bible based church and making new "family" friends. BE STRONG IN HIS STRENGTH! You're covered in His Blood Brother. Love you and Many Blessings on your life, in Jesus Name. AMEN!
Godforbid may we never be trapped by the devil
Here in 2022 🙌powerful sermon, really changed my views as a teen
God's grace can make up for your actions but it can never make up for the consequences those actions bring.
God bless you God😍. Thanks you Pastor Steven for the powerful msg. Oh wow God is Good all the tym
Sent this to my teen who has been running away for years. I made the mistake of not raising them with God. Secondary to my anger at him. I was raised in a loving god fearing home. But i turned my back on him long ago. Here are the consequences
Lord forgive me 😔
This is such a good sermon!
You inspired me to my calling in youth ministry. Thank you pastor Steve furtick
