I'm not a hostage. I'm a Weapon. Formed in a fire. Held steady in the hands of God. Watch out devil. Every time you cut me up, you make me sharper.
Oooh girrrl!!! YESSS sis!!! AMEN!!!
Amen to you girl
Happy Moments: Praise God
Quiet Moments: Worship God
Painful Moments: Trust God
Difficult Moments: Seek God
Every Moment: Thank God
I am not a hostage, I am the weapon.
This message was meant for me. THANK YOU!! I have had a very tough couple of years, I had a brain tumor that cost me my hearing, a virus that attacked my vision and this past October I lost my baby sister out of nowhere. I have been angry with God! I couldn't understand why all the pain. Thank you for showing me a new way of seeing the trials of life. God bless You!
God already told me I'm going to Rome so I can't die on this island!!!🔥🔥🔥🙌🙌🙌💪🏼💪🏼💪🏼☝🏼☝🏼☝🏼
I feel so attacked 😂 but in a good way. I seriously needed this, I just feel like my life is falling apart, my marriage is falling apart and I just cry out and pray every night. But I'm still feeling really helpless and weak. I just need to stop being scared to take the first step towards God's plan and have faith in Him and His promise ❤
praying God will give you the courage to take the step! ^EC Team
When I first watched the it had to happen my husband split up and was going to divorce and that message really helped me to give it to god a few weeks later me and my husband started to talk and was togather again. When the 3rd video came out me and my husband watched it togather and in peace and I realized got fixed all my problems the way he will fix yours keep ur faith

@@addieyah4066 who cares ?
Praying for you brother I am in the same situation but I and glad this happened, and God will have victory!
i have got a revelation....God is good ....He is with me...He is for me....amen
I wanna tell my whole country about this man because WOW!!!! He saves my sanity ALL THE TIME. Thankful.
I saw the “it had to happen” sermon early last year probably around the same time. I think of this message all the time. My faith will not be shaken. Everything that happens to me has to happen. I don’t know why but it has to happen. I can’t change it, I can try my best to avoid it but if it’s in God’s plan for me ITS GONNA HAPPEN. He has proven to me time and time again. My faith is stronger than my Malta. I still have to work on it in parts of my life but every time I put my faith in him to guide me, wooooo He makes magic👏🏽👏🏽👏🏽
I needed this. I'd been through a rough 2019 that just kept on tearing and tearing into me. The result was bitterness with God and despair because some of the consequences from last year extended into the new year and I just didn't know what to feel or how to go about it. I didn't know what approach to take, how to perceive what had happened. My mind was so crowded and burdened by the scars of what had been happening that I couldn't get out of that state. All it did was make me angry and anxious and bitter. Thank you for this, it's given me perspective and allowed me to break from the past. I can now face whatever is ahead of me with confidence in God's word alone.
Same here!
Omg I needed this and I'm so happy I read ur comment! I am the same way, I hope everything in ur life gets better & God opens new doors for u♡♡ Praying for you !!
Thanks for sharing and being honest. Been in the same situation and you feel so frustrated vnot having anyone to talk to. You feel broken because of your bitterness and lost. That took courage to share THNX
It’s turn around time! Thank you, God!
I prayed earlier about how trapped I am, thinking how could this happen to me and such, and thinking about possibilities to escape.
I desperately cried to God and said, "God, please help me.. please help me!"
And I was about to prepare myself to go out, but then I turned my tv on and looked for something just to accompany me preparing my stuffs, when I stumble upon this video.. I was urged to watch it... Never knew this is the answer to my cry to God from yesterday...
You have no idea how God has used this video to strengthen me, just when I feel so helpless. Thank you for the mashup. God bless you, Pastor Steven Furtick.. God bless you, Elevation Church! I'm thankful that you're helping people around the world to get their focus back to God. THANK YOU!
What do you mean go out?
@@pinkwakabeagle from the house...
God bless you Maria. God is with you.
@@jennytorres5255 thank you, Jenny! God bless you!
God is always on time, PRAISE GOD
It happened today. But GOD....
HE still showed up and showed out.
Three of us are still alive all because of GOD. Praise HIS HOLY NAME 🙏
I have been a Christian for 30 plus years---saved from the shipwreck called homosexuality---and praise God that "the ship" I was riding was destroyed because God definitely got my attention....and I began to cling to Jesus for my survival of the life's storm that I was walking in. I praise God that we have an Island of Malta in our lives because this is where we discover so much about God's provision...and I am learning that as I gather the kindling for the bonfire that warms those around me, I have learned to shake off "the poisonous asp" in the fire....The Devil tries to latch onto my soul and I have learned to "resist him and he MUST flee" and I know I have been saved to show others who are drowning in the homosexual lifestyle (LGBTQA) ship....because they too are in a treacherous storm and they can be saved...(and some of them are looking for other discardments on the sinking ship to bring them peace...and only God's hand can save us..PRAISE GOD!
I have never read Acts 27 and 28. But this message came at the right time. By yesterday at around 11am-3pm Kenyan time, i was in the same place where Paul was ( Malta), its a new year and just when i was expecting something good "i got bitten by a viper" it did hurt, it was very painful, and it hurt most in my heart, i have always known that this particular situation is connected to my purpose since God promised me that it will happen, but as at yesterday, i was drained, i was almost throwing in the towel, I was "DONE", I questioned God and asked Him, what His plan was because i dint understand, I woke up today, and I asked the Holy spirit to give me a word, i go on RUclips, and this message comes up on my homepage...GOD IS WORKING HERE, Philippians 1:19. God bless your ministry Pastor Steve
Absolutely Awesome!!!!! Nothing else works like the word of God. I had heard these sermons when I was going through similar storms like paul, didn't know if I would make it or not, didn't know if I ll survive or not. Craving spiritually and dieing inside, with no support whatsoever, and discovering heavy loss of health. The only one who knew what was I going through and why was I going through, showed me to listen to this podcast to tell me that What has happened had to happen and it is for a cause to glorify God and spread His word, to tell me that I am a conqueror and I m positioned and not stuck, I am on purpose and not a nobody. He listens to me He understands me, His word is my hope and strength He sends help when I need it. He reaches out to me when I can't make it, and every time without a fail. God has been faithful. Now here I m known of these revelations, the why, with God I have emerged out victorious, stronger and fearless. I can see God is doing things that no man could. And I m doing things through Christ who strengthens me. Glory be to God, glory be to the Messiah Jesus. And Thank you holy spirit for speaking to me uplifting me and revealing things to me. My life is now worth it because it is filled with the presence and awareness of God. Praise the lord. Thank you again Elevation church. 😇
Just prayed about the situation I am in right now and watched this mashup. "U thought u needed Malta but actually Malta needed you" . It may sound self glorifying but it means God's purpose is not over yet. Thank you Jesus.
YAASS amen! Praying for you!
I’m glad God closed some doors so I wouldn’t waste years of my life in the wrong room/path. Hallelujah!!!!
This message was for me. 2019 and past years were rough. However, God moved these people and things in my life away from me because He just wanted me to serve Him ONLY. I realized I am not here for anyone, I don’t go to church for my friends or anybody. I go to church because of God - I want to know Him more & I am being used by Him! Anywhere God puts me I know now that there is a purpose, like you said!! So amen & amen!!! The enemy may try to manipulate me, deceive me, put me down, lead me astray, tempt me, etc. But God is always with me & this year of 2020 will be the year I become fearless, courageous & victorious!!! I am finally SET-FREE!!! Hallelujah!!!! 🙌🏽🙌🏽🙌🏽
I survived the seasons for a reason. God has definitely showed His power and kept His promises. It All had to happen, because God is showing me my purpose and identity as a child of God.
So blessed today 🇵🇬
Pastor Furtick - you are amazing! I've been watching you silently for a couple of years and have never commented on a youtube video in my life - but I was compelled to let you know that you are such a blessing to me in Tempe, AZ. This particular message was exactly what I needed to hear, and gave me the answer I've been looking for for the past 4 years. After dealing with a chronic illness that would not release me - which led to a failed marriage - a lost job - etc etc. I rebuilt my life, my health, obtained an even better job, and am now in a very loving relationship and even bought a house last year. BUT STILL I worried and wondered and looked backwards at WHY the illness happened - why my life was torn down to ruins by it. I worried that I had done something to deserve it and became gripped fear worrying that I might do something again to lose what I've rebuilt. Up until the illness I had always been a person who could see God using my trials for my betterment - or the greater good of others. But this one - this one got me down....way down. And although I got through the physical motions of getting my life back together, I was still caught up in the mental "WHY" and the fear of it happening again. That is, until TODAY. When I saw this message (and I literally watched it 3 times in a row - feeling more alive and pumped up each time I watched it). Now I know IT HAD TO HAPPEN. I had to be torn apart to resurrect. I had to lose all I had in order to fully appreciate who I am, what my gifts are and the value I bring to others. I had to lose a little - get roughed up to be fully sanded down and polished. And I'm sure the pruning and the polishing and the lessons are not over. But I can confidently KNOW in my heart and soul that it just had to happen, and finally feel GLAD that it did. "If God allows it, then I can accept it." Thank you, Pastor Furtick, for touching my life in so many ways. I just adore you and your wife Holly. Blessings and hugs from Heather in Tempe AZ.
Everything this man touches has illuminated the love of Christ within my spirit and I just discovered him at 3 this morning I am his newest groupie
Welcome. This ministry has changed my life, saved my life & restored hope that was dying. I live in Illinois but I belong to Elevation Church online. God bless your heart.
Just discovered this last night
I’m so happy for you! This just made my day
God Bless you and Keep you
@@shellymiller558 God gets all the glory ! Stay in the word of God .Jesus loves you
I’m in ‘lock-down’ working remotely from home due to covid-19 in Bahamas. And transitioning between roles without yet knowing what’s ‘next for me’.......... BUT I’M NOT A HOSTAGE - I’M A WEAPON!! 🙌🏽🙌🏽🙌🏽 I’m blessed wherever God puts me!!
Wow! This is speaking to me so much. I’m going through infertility after going through infertility and recurring miscarriage. I thought there’s no way I’ll have to go through that again so being there again was really hard for me to accept. 2019 God taught me the purpose is to grow closer to Him and to bring hope to the hopeless through sharing God’s promises. I was grateful God spoke to me so clearly about this but being human my emotions tried many times to take over and increase fear. Again and again I stood on God’s promises and gained so much hope, peace and faith through Him. Going into 2020 I started to understand my focus needs to shift from my hearts desires to God’s word. I have been trying to let go of my wants and been praising God for His promises. He has assured me He will answer, even given me my children’s names. Still in this uncertainty and storm yet standing on my faith and His promises. I know all glory will go to God. I found myself thanking God for this trial and this was when I realized my focus was shifting and I was truly surrendering. And while all this was continuing to go on many other trials came up. I could feel as if the enemy has been trying to break me over and over. But I’m so close to Jesus through all this that I will not stop standing on God’s promises.
Thank you for sharing, Aria! Psalm 46:1 says, "God is our refuge and strength, an ever-present help in trouble." Lifting you up in prayer and standing in agreement with you! You are seen by God, known by God, and LOVED by God! ^EC Team
Elevation Church thank you! 🙏🏻❤️
Wouldn’t be able to get through my divorce without the enlightenment of the lords word that you the messenger have sent! Thank you!
Amen! Praying for you sis!
As a divorced single mom of a toddler, this message is what I needed to be reminded to keep moving and looking forward. As a teenager I was spoken over that I am God’s dream. I lost it along the way, but I’m coming back!!
Krystl here ~ mighty God mighty God!! The King of the world sure does have a wonderful way of speaking to our spirits through Pastor Stevens messages. I got totally pumped after he said I'm not a prisoner, I'm a weapon. Woo wee praise God!! Use us oh Lord to make Your kingdom come here on earth as in heaven in Jesus name
I liked when pastor Steven said “ Malta is what you make of it!” In 2019, I hit a very dark place in my life but I’m glad that god brought me out of it. I don’t know how god will use that dark place for his glory.
This sermon motivated me, when Past Steven said "even our mistakes" for its my mistakes that put me in this situation that I am. It amazes me how God works through Past Steven, every time when I feel now I am giving up, God incourages me through his sermons, I wish I could give to his ministry, but know this, that I pray for you Pastor and Elevation. thanks for your obiedence to the Holy Spirit, may God bless you.
He really started preaching at a young age god bless this men..
I’m waking up to a new day in my “Malta”. Somehow feeling glad about it.
Thank you for the word.
Amen!
Right on time after battling a miscarriage right before Christmas. Thank you for the message!
Praying for you! ^EC Team
Life changing for me Steven & Holly. Your partly who you are because you have an amazing partner too. The church I belonged to for 4 1/2 half years turned their back on me when bad things kept happening to my life and I was alone in the dark . GOD SHINED THROUGH.. I only had you to listen to at that point and this sermon right now ? ( mashup )is what I needed to hear. I cried out to God on Christmas Eve last year for him to put a new church down the street from me because I can't leave my home too long , my husband's on hospice and I can't go far.
God put a New CHURCH down the street the next month. I prayed for a pastor like Steven furtick and he is like you in so many ways... I am so blessed.
It will happen, it had to happen, I’m glad it happen, so Ill let it happen. Thanks Paster Steven.
This three part series has changed my life over the years in ways I can't explain. I don't know how but I know i have to make it! Thank you pastor Steven
Amen!!!
It will happen! It had to happen! I'm glad it happened! Shake it off right now before it kills you! I've got a Revelation! I already know He won't leave me or forsake me! I have to get through it! I don't have to like the event to celebrate the result. It doesn't matter the reason it happened. It's your response! There's a purpose for it. I'm not saying God did it but He will use it! I'm not a hostage! I'm a weapon! Watch out devil!
Hallelujah
I love this set of messages! I started listening to them in order about 7 or 8 months after losing my Mom in a car accident. She was such a wonderful woman of God! These messages helped me shift my perspective from “Why??!!!” to “If God gets the glory,I’m glad it happened “ That doesn’t take away the Mom size hole in my heart or the ache from missing her soooo much. It’s been 2 yrs and God has brought me a long way....He has used your messages a lot during the process. I thank God for Elevation!!!
I can't explain! Had a real rough spot in my life, I am 41, successful but was angry, mean, ugly to everyone. Fiund this guy and I am addicted! All I cant think about is learning more and more about Jesus in the past 2 months. I feel like there is something bigger than me, hard to explain
Yessss! Pastor is so anointed that every time I hear an old message I remember how impactful they remain. Thank you for reminding me
I'm a fully loaded weapon of the most high God, praise God, praise Jesus and Blessed b the Holy Ghost. Glory Glory Glory Hallelujah
Yes for so many years I've been an addict to meth. It's been a long time to say I am clean sober not even smoking cigarettes it's only been 2 weeks but still that's long for me on the outside world. I know I had to go thru everything to get me where god wants me. I am looking forward gods promises. Thank u pastor Steven furtick your a blessing
praying God would continue to help you fight this battle! ^EC Team
@@elevationchurch thank u so much. God bless u all
Stay strong my brother
This has summed up my whole situation right now. I am a walking testimony for every word here. It had to happen so that every purpose of God could be made manifest in my life. I felt stuck in my storm but now I see why I went through it , the person I now am, I would never see, if the storm didn’t release all that was trapped inside of me . I’m so grateful for the things that broke so that the right pieces could come together .
Ever since I prayed and asked God to lead me to where my spirit could be fed he led me to Pastor Furtick Elevation Church.
Every message has given me life understanding, clarification of trails and deliverance and so much more. The teachings have blessed my two young adult children as well. Thank you Lord and thank you Pastor Furtick. May God continue to bless your family and Elevation Pastoring staff.😇
Thank you for sharing, Quintle! God bless! ^EC Team
I had been ignoring my faith for 5 years when EC podcast broke down those barriers and allowed my heart to open once again to our Loving God. This is the first time I've seen SF preach and Oh Baby his faith is Preeeeeesent! I thought he was convicted in speech but in reality his whole body is buzzing with the Holy Spirit!
The production value is A+, the message is A+, the Spirit is A+.
Thank you EC Team for dedicating your time and love in these productions to us who feel unable (or unwilling) to connect to our local churches. My Faith is Restored. Praise God
Thanks for sharing! God bless! ^EC Team
Im in a place where just like Paul after surving a storm and glad and thinking now I can breath a snake bites my hand and I'm glad for this message coz for the past two days it's like I just froze into my snake bite... After hearing the word I have shaken it into the fire and keeping up my courage and God is amazing.... And I love your imagination because in my frozen snake bite I somewhat caught a thought of this is how I slip back into depression... So it was better for me to "freeze " because taking up peoples instructions and opinion was not an option. Praise the Lord I woke up to thus sermon mash up.... Ooh I bless the Lord for being in malta.
can we just appreciate Steven back in 2014?
28 and single is golden ! 😂❤
Watching this made me feel like God was using this message to talk to me I am so so blessed with this sermon🙏🏻🙏🏻
Its turn around time now!!! I claim & recieve in Jesus name Amen and Amen
I NEED MALTA, BUT FOUND THAT MALTA NEEDS ME TOO....GOD WILL USE US IN OUR ADVERSITIES...I am a former captive who desires to unlock the cages of others who are held captive....GOD, PLEASE USE ME TO ENCOURAGE OTHERS WHO ARE IN SINKING SHIPS....THEY MAY NEED MALTA...BUT MALTA NEEDS THEM AS WELL. Incredible Teaching Pastor Steven Furtick.....awesome!
Storms = stepping stones to greater faith. Hold on don't be blown away by the wind. GOD controls it all. If HE has allowed it then accept it. HE will see you through it cause it had to happen. So declare "I'm glad it happened"!! See you in June Pastor Steven live at the Barclay Center.
Thank you, Pastor Steven Furtick and Elevation Church. You have taught me so much that has helped me in my recovery from drug addiction. God has been using your sermons to minister in my life and i am beyond grateful. I hope to one day attend your church in person. Thank you for everything you do.
I needed this word... Just what I needed in this season of Malta.. God's helping me fix my focus in the storm for his glory. Blessed and renewed! God bless you pastor Steven Furtick!!
YAASSS!
I'm glad it happened. It was a big big interruption. God is good. I'm a teacher and a student claimed that I hurt them I guess I don't even remember the incident back in 2004. Thank you Pastor furtick because your series of it had to happen it will happen and I'm glad it happened pulled me through God's word amen blessings to you and your family and Church in Jesus Christ name as a fellow believer amen
... I will be getting another certificate after all and I will be continuing to teach- apparently this is God's will❤
This man & the calling God has given to him, has saved my life
I was going through a storm in my life my ship was sinking this sermon is meant for me Pastor Steven praises to God he lifted me out of it thank you lord Jesus Amen and Amen
I started 2019 with a heart ache but I said I would look at God. It was very hard to keep my eyes on him because every thing just seemed to not work it was like success was not my thing. Just when I gave up and was done waiting on a miracle, God blessed me with the title of Miss World Nigeria and when I thought it couldn't get any better Miss World Africa. I entered Miss World with my eye on the crown but I am so grateful for what I have achieved and how far I have come. This sermon was for me and I say it with a smile on my face, I AM GLAD IT HAPPENED!!!!
Say that again! Praying God would continue to reveal himself to you! ^EC Team
I needed to so much !! I’m here crying 😢 sobbing 😭 and laughing 😂 and more than ANYTHING.. DETERMINED!! Not everything I’ve done or said or been through is because God is not with me (as my own family and my own parents have told me my whole life ) things JUST HAD TO HAPPEN!! I’m determined to tell MY story and use it as a weapon ! The tears 😭 and the pain as fire 🔥 get my education ! fire up my new job ! get my licenses required ... im DETERMINED!! What happened to me since i was a child and made me make the mistakes i made ... will ONE day help someone else !! NO more!! I am NOT a victim anymore !! I AM VICTORIOUS !!! God WILL fulfill his plan in ME!!
God is so GOOD!! His word is always a light in the darkness. It's amazing how God uses pastor Esteven Furtick. My life Is falling apart, my marriage, my job, my spiritual life. But God always ALWAYS! Comes to the rescue and never leaves his children. God bless you pastor Esteven!
I just saw the title, and it strucked me a chord. Didn't took me a second to click this. For everything that has happened to me and will bound to happen, I'll let it happen and I can say I'm glad it happened!
I need him 😭 “Heavenly Father I need you I need you love and spirit love you “
Arturo Joy Fonseca It’s good to see people/ brothers and sisters in Christ saying they need Him. Where I’m at in my life it’s seems as though NO ONE needs them. You find that in someone who when you talking to you sense there is nothing you can say that they try to TOP/OR ONE UP YOU in conversation. In saying you need Him I hear that y’all/you may be good listeners to someone you care about.
Bless you
Brother Lewis
Isaiah 54:17
Lewis Pullon thanks you amen 🙏
Arturo Joy Fonseca you are not alone brother. God will bring what you’ve been praying for.
I will thank God every day for using pastor Steven like that. It seems like he is watching my life and thinks “what does Ana needs to hear today?”. I needed it so much and can’t get enough. PREACH FURTICK! Thank you Jesus 🙌🏼 thank you pastor Steven ❤️
Three years ago I willfully confessed to my secretive opioid addiction. I resigned from the church I was pastoring at the time of said confession. It all happened in order for the revelation of my restoration superseded the reasoning on trying to figure out why. Great word - the event was horrific BUT the results are amazing.
I needed this today....Today was my first day back to work this year and walked into a MAD HOUSE! I feel like Paul...…...It had to happen and I am GLAD!!
Recently I keep thinking why so many things happened in 2019: The fire in both the South American and Australia, the virus in China......This sermon reminds me that though I don't know why these happened, I still need to pray for the result. This takes faith.
It is not by might, nor by power that I stand, but by the Living Wordof God. Glory to the King of Kings for He is Faithful.
His word says just as the rain falls to the ground watering the seed and bringing forth fruit,so to does the word of God,sharper than a two edged sword,piercing through the divide that is soul and spirit and giving man peace and rest in Christ Jesus For Ever and Ever.
Praise God all who have sought and found.All who have knocked and been opened for.All who have asked and have been given .For all who ask ,receive,all who knock are opened for and all who seek find✨🧚💖
It's just now 6:00 am and it's still dark outside. I've been up since 4:00. My thoughts woke me up again. The last half of 2019 was especially difficult for me. I have been in a very difficult and combative workin situation. Prayers asking God for help appear to have largely gone unanswered. What has come to me though is that what the most likely outcome of this situation is that the status quo will most likely end and I will find myself on the outside looking in. I fear the pain and humiliation this will bring and how difficult it will be to not see this as a loss and a failure. I've been praying for sometime now to do more to advance the kingdom and to let the Lord know that I am available and to live my life purposefully. Stil, knowing how this situation is likely to turn out has me still wanting to fight back. And so that's what woke me up at 4:00 am.
I believe God wanted me to hear this message today and directed me to your site. I have already been listening to Pastor Steven for several months now and I have been blessed with his teaching. I woke up ready to fight back against the coming storm that I sense in my future . My stomach started to feel sick, my head was pounding and my heart started to race. God spoke to me and asked me if this was really where I wanted to go. It was at that moment I realized that as much as I wanted to fight back that by doing so would keep me from obtaining all that He has waiting for me. That what I really needed to do was to let it happen. Let it happen. I don't have to love the event but I can trust Him with the outcome. This message brought tears to my eyes but the hearing of it was very timely. I may need to listen to it again to remind myself of God's promises to move from "letting it happen" to "I'm glad it happened." I'm not going to lie, it's going to hurt but please pray that I can have the courage to keep my chin up and to continue to keep praising God for his peace, his tender mercies and abundant provisions for my future. Even if I can't see it yet, I must trust Him when He says that He has the best for me still ahead and to always remember that through Him, we are more than conquerors. I just need to keep my eyes on Him. Please pray for me to help me to get through the coming season, to guard my heart, to surrender to self and to give God the glory ahead of everything that comes my way. Let the coming test become my testimony of His loving kindness. His will be done. Amen.
"I don't have to love the event, but I can trust Him with the outcome." That line is monumental. Praying God would give you courage and peace as you walk through this storm. God is with you and we are standing for you! ^EC Team
🙏🏾 this sounds like me from the end of 2019 to the present. Thank you for sharing

LOVE THIS! This spoke to me this morning. As a worship leader I never want to go through the motions. God has plans for all of us. The plans may be different, but the result is the same! Heaven is our true home. God bless.
God bless! ^EC Team
I am glad about all the battles I faces and the blessings I got. Its turn round time. I got my eyes on the word that God spoke to me. “Never will I leave you; never will I forsake you.” Hebrews 13:5 Pastor Steven sermons are always flawless. Thank you EC Team.
Look up to God and no one else in your circumstances!!! I'm Glad it Happened-Powerful sermon
Pastor Steven isn’t this beautiful, that we can revisit these sermons whenever we want. Thank you for all you do.🙏🏾♥️ 2022
MY GOD!! I've been afraid to say that I'm glad it happened. This is the confirmation I needed to be glad it happened. I'm so glad it happened!
This is the kind of sermon I watch multiple times to get all the details and highlights and get my notes right
I'm not a victim I'm a WEAPON Ooooooweeeeeeeee 😭👊🗣THANK YA JESUS.....
at 31:05 when Pastor you started speaking into the camera directly at me, in my moment of confusion, pain, and brokenness I about lost it and started crying. This moment is how i knew God was telling me "listen up, this is for you!" I am so grateful for this ministry of Elevation Church, when Ive heard no clear answers in my own circumstance, God brought me back to this, just to witness at 31:05 Pastor Steven speaking into that hurt, thank you.
This is so on time. My husband and I have been married for 9 years and this June in Jesus name will be 10. Our calling is to be Pastors one day, we know our calling. Unfortunately the enemy found my husband in a vulnerable state, and my husband just cheated on me. This is not like him and if you knew us you'd understand. Last night I just told my mom that I'm glad this happened because I would rather this happen than us become Pastors and this happen. We started counseling, but my husband is confused and now is believing lies of the enemy that maybe he was never called to Pastor and that maybe our marriage was a dream. Please pray for my husband Adrian Carrillo, that God will bring him to deliverance, and surrendernce, and back to his salvation. In the 9 years we've been married hes been faithful, I dont know why this happen, but I'm glad it did because I am confident in the calling God has for us, and I believe God is doing something in this to get us ready for the later. Please pray for me too, that I do not lose heart and I keep trusting that God can make a way. I forgive my husband, and I just want him to give his heart to God. He belongs to God.
Needed this so badly today. Please pray for my marriage
It had to happen. I love how. This sermon starts with Pauls's shipwreck (part of Pauls's thorn in his side which was satan attacking him which is not from God, but the enemy). God said it would happen. It had to happen! Pastor said: "I'm not saying God did it. I'm saying he will use it now." Awesome massage!
God lead me to this sermon today, with his perfect timing and the holy spirit spoke to me in such a powerful way through Pastor Furtick's words. I am in awe. I needed to hear these exact things spoken over my life today. Hallelujah and Amen.
when he said He already gave us courage and we need to keep it up I just remembered the song "no bondage". we don't have a spirit of fear, he gave us courage and strength and I think Him for that
I’m available Lord!! Let it happen ✌🏼✌🏼
Thankyou. It will happen. Storms come and storms go but God is in control keep trusting him he will direct your path. He knows what's right for each of us. God is in control. Amen
I know I need to hear this over and over right now. My focus absolutely needs to shift. It has to!
This set me free from regret! Perfect timing
Praise be to God the most high, the King of all Kings and the Lord of lords Jesus Christ!!!!!!!
FATHER, thank you so much!! You know what I need every time. Continue to bless Pastor Steven and his ministry to bring forth your word. All for your glory!! In Jesus name. Amen!!
This message is really speaking to me..thanks pastor Steven. I went through a bad storm last year but I can finally say am glad it happened coz God saw me through it all.
He made a way! ^EC Team
how do i say thank you Pastor Steven.
you see, my life has been like a movie this past year, 3heart breaks, disappointments, pain. And i kept asking why am i as a child of keep going through all these, now i have realised that it had to happen, all were God's plan and it shall end in praise.
God bless you Pastor!
First of all Pastor Furtick, this is art! Very creative and TIMELY. And puts me in the mind of the Bible itself (old testament is the new concealed, new testament is the old revealed) and the sermon proves that Gd's word STANDS, flows, and doesn't contredict itself. That scripture in Acts is the same word Holy Spirit gave me for 2020. MY GOD YOUR WORD IS REAL. 😭....I LOVE THIS.
I needed this word.
This was such a great sermon. I am grateful to God for guiding me to this. IT HAD TO HAPPEN!! So hard to say but so true. Getting ready to turn 46 (if the LORD says the same) and I am struggling with my purpose. What did God create me for???? I am trying desperately to focus on Him and not my situations. I would love to get a revelation for my life. I will wait on God and pray He inclines my ears to hear His voice and His revelation.
It all had to happen.. Thank you Lord, for the season of Malta. Thank for wiping everything away not suited for my purpose. It will turn out for my deliverance. I eagerly expect to stay free and my future is for His glory🙌🏾🙏🏾🙋🏽💃🏽
These messages have all changed my life! It has been so timely for me. I attend a church in south Louisiana but ever time God leads me to listen to one of your sermons it blows me away! Thank you!
We appreciate you! ^EC Team
At first I was thinking you talking straight to one of my children, then the more I listen ,I'm like yes it's me also because I'm the one that's going through this long yrs of storms with them and sometimes the load feels heavier than I can carry. I always get stronger through Jesus . Yes it had to happen to fulfill the calling on his life.
Amen! Powerful!
I've heard all 3 of these messages several times and I'm so excited for this mashup!! Life changing word!!! Those messages changed my life!!
YESSS! The Lord is using this ministry!
Pastor you are saying i have had the gift for 13 year. Its my to shine. There a many things that stop me having my gift. Nor can they stop what i have with my God .amen. the fear is losing Jesus
Thank u Jesus for speaking to me through Pastor Furtick.
I just heard your voice in my head. When you said you got to let the snake bite you! Thank you 🙏🏽
Elevation Church
Please I need you to pray for me
My faith is dying slowly and I'm trying my best to hold on to it
Lord I pray for your daughter Emmanuella, I pray that you bless her and give her strength so she can soar. I pray that you open her eyes to see your presence in her life Lord. I pray that you exceed her expectations lord . I pray that she will be so pleased with her growth in a years time lord. I pray that she looks back and thanks you for the goodness you have in store for her.
'.. So let’s not get tired of doing what is good. At just the right time we will reap a harvest of blessing if we don’t give up. '
Galatians 6:1,9
'We also pray that you will be strengthened with all his glorious power so you will have all the endurance and patience you need. May you be filled with joy, always thanking the Father. He has enabled you to share in the inheritance that belongs to his people, who live in the light. For he has rescued us from the kingdom of darkness and transferred us into the Kingdom of his dear Son, who purchased our freedom and forgave our sins.'
Colossians 1:11-14
I found this and wow. Is like you are speaking to me. The anxiety. The sleepless nights. My mind raising. So much abuse I’m being put through. So much torture. But every am I wake up and say ty lord for another day. I know you have a purpose for this. If I have to deal w this I will and I will not loose my faith.
I am glad I watched this today...
With everything I have set before me, with the transition I am going through, I am glad I watched this. Thank you🙏
These messages spoke volumes to me after my now ex husband left me in 2017. I survived that storm.... now though... with new storms raging or at least... residual storms starting to rage again.... this message resonates soooo differently and so deeply! Definitely my favorite. I needed this right now!!!
