    I received Jesus Christ and I am not what I thought I was. I was sat down and locked up from my addiction to meth for 5 months. I choose to use that time to get my heart and head right and get back in tune with God and I was released from jail with absolutely nothing now here I am almost 8 months clean and sober and have been blessed with loving supportive family who took me in and believed that I could change and gave me a chance just like God gave me a chance. I am blessed with a great job in which I am training to become manager and I have been blessed to buy me a car and I will be 8 months sober on the 8 th of this month. All those who know me are in shock because I am not who they thought I once was!! Amen to God. And let me say this: The come back is always greater than the set back!! Amen! All praise and glory to God!

    Hi. I'm Trisha. I'm a sinner and I'm condemned by my church. I'm blessed with the story of the "daughter" because I have always identified myself as my issue. Today, God revealed to me that I am not who I thought I was. I cried as I heard Him calling me "daughter." Never would I listen to anybody calling me names but listen to how Jesus call me by my name. I'm Trisha and I'm the daughter of the Most High God!
    Your ministry has reached me in the Philippines. Thank you for making me feel belonged and loved.

    This hit me so hard. I've been struggling with a women's health issue for years where I'm literally bleeding internally just like the woman in the story. It's taken over my life and become my identity. I went to a specialist today and got really tough news. When I was making dinner tonight, I was going to watch Netflix, but felt a pull to watch a sermon instead. I went on Elevation's UA-cam channel and just had this feeling that I needed to watch this one. Wow, if this isn't my story, I don't what is. When he started talking about being a daughter, I just broke down in tears. When I heard my name at the end of the sermon, I started bawling even more. This was exactly what I needed to hear. Thank you so much Steven & Elevation church for putting this together & sharing it virtually. God used it to speak to me through my computer at dinner time. It was beautiful & I needed it more than anything. Thank you!!

I HAVE BEEN SOBER for 2 weeks the day I started listening is the day it hit me JESUS IS THE ANSWER. And I truly feel god like never before my addiction is gone my depression is gone my anger is gone my shackles are gone and Jesus has set me free. I am so very thankful for page I share every single message I listen to someone one day will listen and it to will change their life like it has mine.

I got into celebrate recovery and got a sponsor, worked the steps and applied them to every area of my life. Thanks for sharing... it takes a lot of courage to come to thr realization that only a power greater than ourselves can relieve I'd from thr insanity... that power for me is Jesus Christ. God bless

I grew up being abused, surrounded by alcoholism and drug addiction, I've experienced so much pain, but that is all it is: an experience, I'm not what I thought.

      Genial! Te comparto algunos textos de la biblia:
      Romanos 3:23-24
      Pues todos han pecado y están privados de la gloria de Dios, pero por su gracia son justificados gratuitamente mediante la redención que Cristo Jesús efectuó.
      Romanos 8:1
      Por consiguiente, no hay ahora condenación para los que están en Cristo Jesús, los que no andan conforme a la carne sino conforme al Espíritu.
      Romanos 8:8
      y los que están en la carne no pueden agradar a Dios
      Romanos 13:13-14
      Andemos decentemente, como de día, no en orgías y borracheras, no en promiscuidad sexual y lujurias, no en pleitos y envidias; antes bien, vestíos del Señor Jesucristo, y no penséis en proveer para las lujurias de la carne.
      1 Juan 1:8-10
      Si afirmamos que no tenemos pecado, lo único que hacemos es engañarnos a nosotros mismos y no vivimos en la verdad; pero si confesamos nuestros pecados a Dios, él es fiel y justo para perdonarnos nuestros pecados y limpiarnos de toda maldad. Si afirmamos que no hemos pecado, llamamos a Dios mentiroso y demostramos que no hay lugar para su palabra en nuestro corazón.
      Andad en el Espíritu, y no satisfagáis los deseos de la carne. Gálatas 5:16

    I listened to this message now more than a year after it originally aired, and it was a Rhema word from God for me. Thank you so much for this. Thank you Pastor Steven for your obedience to God and for sharing this. At the 45 min point of this sermon, when you started talking about Jesus calling her "daughter", I just started crying. Thank you for reminding ME that I am God's daughter. I can hold my head high, because He is the lifter of my head, and He loves me. I also laughed when you spoke about Abby, and how you treat her differently - I am the only daughter, have two brothers, and I was definitely a daddy's girl - I KNEW I was his favourite (though parents shouldn't have favourites, I know). My father passed away in 2014 and I miss him so much. I think of what my earthly father would have done for me, how he loved me, and I know that my Heavenly Father loves me infinitely more and He reminded me today, through you Pastor Steven, that I am His daughter.

This one popped up for me, it was so right. I have always thought of myself as my anxiety, my depression, my failed marriage, not good enough and a lessor child of God because of it all.

      Pues todos han pecado y están privados de la gloria de Dios, pero por su gracia son justificados gratuitamente mediante la redención que Cristo Jesús efectuó.
      Romanos 8:1
      Por consiguiente, no hay ahora condenación para los que están en Cristo Jesús, los que no andan conforme a la carne sino conforme al Espíritu.
      Romanos 8:8
      y los que están en la carne no pueden agradar a Dios
      Romanos 13:13-14
      Andemos decentemente, como de día, no en orgías y borracheras, no en promiscuidad sexual y lujurias, no en pleitos y envidias; antes bien, vestíos del Señor Jesucristo, y no penséis en proveer para las lujurias de la carne.
      1 Juan 1:8-10
      Si afirmamos que no tenemos pecado, lo único que hacemos es engañarnos a nosotros mismos y no vivimos en la verdad; pero si confesamos nuestros pecados a Dios, él es fiel y justo para perdonarnos nuestros pecados y limpiarnos de toda maldad. Si afirmamos que no hemos pecado, llamamos a Dios mentiroso y demostramos que no hay lugar para su palabra en nuestro corazón.

      You speak as if you love God always perfectly which would cause you to keep all his commandments which none of us do. Even our worship has sin but we are cleansed by the blood of Christ and now a beautiful aroma goes up to God when we praise Him the perfection of Christ is upon us. We do not love God by trying to love Him with our strength but by receiving His love we fall more and more in love with Him and are transformed from the inside out beholding the glory of Christ. If you could do so there would be no need for Christ. Galatians 2:16 know that a person is not justified by the works of the law, but by faith in Jesus Christ. So we, too, have put our faith in Christ Jesus that we may be justified by faith in Christ and not by the works of the law, because by the works of the law no one will be justified.
      Galatians 5:4 You who are trying to be justified by the law have been alienated from Christ; you have fallen away from grace. We are not justified through our works but by faith alone in Jesus Christ if you look in the context of James 2:24 and read it in its entirety James is speak of justification before men not God.

But one area I should mention is we should flee sexual temptations that's an area where we should really place no confidence in the flesh just a tip for anyone who may read.

    I wept listening to the Word, hearing Jesus call the woman with an issue, daughter ... I wept because I realized today that this is still an area in my life that has not healed since my divorce in 2004. I grew up with an abusive father so from little I had no idea what it actually felt like to be a daughter. I lived by fear. But my father-in-law was a good, good father and for the first time in my life I felt loved like a daughter. I felt protected and sheltered and that he genuinely cared for me ... the divorce was a harsh blow. I lost my home, my sense of family and my sense of being a daughter all in one blow ... today I'm 50yrs old and I burst into tears because, although I call God my Father, I still don't feel like a daughter. I know that God cares about my feelings too, not just my thoughts ... my prayer from today onward will be, "Father, show me love in a way that I will feel like a daughter. I don't want to just go through the motions but I want the Emotions too. I want to have the knowledge of who I am to God but also the confidence in my heart that I am exactly thát - A daughter ... not an abused girl who became a woman who was rejected and never found her place in her Father's arms ... I want more than this hollowness. So ! Steven if you perhaps read these messages, will you please pray for and with me. I want to be healed and made whole, in Jesus Name.

Please Lord thank you for stopping the abuse bringing this to an end! Lord you have brought me through so much in my life - thank you for your Blessing in Jeshua Christ name amen.
