- Has anything in your life turned out exactly like you expected? Your relationships? Your career? Being a parent? The reality almost always looks different than our perception. When we pray to God for things, what we ask for will likely come with struggles, delays, and uncertainty. Even the Israelites, who were delivered from generations of slavery and witnessed many miracles, still had to wander in the wilderness. But count it a blessing when you find yourself working through those hard places. God may be working discipline and patience in you, preparing you for exactly what you need when you need it.

Please pray for me. My fiance was buried yesterday and I lost my baby two days after he died. My house is empty, my heart is empty. I don't know where to go from here
Please, continue to hold on to Jesus, cry out to him and be with fellow belivers, praying for you my sister, In Christ Jesus Name Amen!!!
Please keep me in prayer! I gave my heart to the Lord last Sunday and it's been hell ever since with my family! I will continue to move forward! Please keep praying!
Sending 🙏🏿 up….Don’t give up the enemy is trying to distract you….Set your mind and heart on Jesus and refuse to be moved…..God will see you through….I promise…..
Pray for your family!❤

His preaching has gotten me through so many of dark days and darker nights I’m so grateful GOD anointed this man
Me too. May God be forever glorified
We serve a GOD who specializes in catching you up after a delay!
And black ppl have the image of such and its hilarious how many believe just anybody of their picking will…not can but will fit the description. Thank God he knows…the difference
Dear Jehovah I pray you keep Bishop Jakes covered. I have received more words from GOD from this man than any man in the world . GOD bless you Bishop !

So this is my testimony after listening to this message I’m 30 years old been going through some things because I lost sight and lost faith but recently i decided too leave my job and return back to school to finish it was hard because now I’m a mother of two boys with more responsibility on me it was a struggle I told myself that if god allows me to get through this semester and pass then I’ll continue because school was really hard and I ended up passing school I found a job that worked with my schooling recently I’m behind on my bills but god is good he’s making a way for me to get caught up on everything and finish what I started I’m not giving up I’m going to keep pressing forward
God got you sis🫂
"God prepares a table in the presence of your enemies even when the enemy is you."
Anger is often the camouflage that hurt wears 🙏
So true and thank you for bringing it up. ❤🙏

Greatest man who ever walked on earth, had no servants, yet they called him Master. Had no degree, yet they called him Teacher. Had no medicines, yet they called him Healer. He had no army, yet rulers feared him. He claimed no territory, yet they called him King. He won no military battles, yet he conquered the world. He defeated all his enemies, yet he never harmend anyone. He committed no crime, yet they crucified him. He was buried in a tomb, yet he lives today🙏🏻. His name is Jesus.❤
I’m just a broken woman seeking prayer!
I am in a hard place but I will get through it,God is my Rock he will always be beside me in Jesus Christ our Lord amen 🙏🙏.
🙏🙏 Prayers lifted. Yes our God is with you. Prayers that on the other side of this hard place will be something that will blow your mind! Our God can do anything.
Me too and yes we will 🙌🏾
Amen 🙏🏽
I feel you. Because I’m at my hard place. But I know God has made a way for me. It’s already done
Praying for my brother to overcome drug addiction
I come here lost. Not knowing what the future holds. After being attacked emotionally. I come here as always for guidance and peace.
God’s about to do something
I lost everything…I need prayer I just want to be better. Better for you lord, better for my 2 kids, better for myself ❤️🙏🏽🥺
Our loss is temporary, God’s provision is permanent. Take it to our father in prayer. Remember, progress under pressure. You will overcome in Jesus name 🙏🏽
You find yourself in hard place when you attach your identity to other people Reaction 🙏
Ngl. TD Jake’s went into the vault for this message. More quotables, metaphors, revelations, old to New Testament types than I’ve ever heard in one message. 🔥🔥🔥 praise God for the anointing
I lost my job right before Thanksgiving and I’ve been trying to figure things out! God has never left me but I’m still learning to trust him more. I’m trying to work in Gods timing. I have been asking God to help me. Pray for me and my family.
🙏🏾🙏🏾🙏🏾
I lost my job a week before Christmas and my children are getting worst 😢I’m going strong even when I feel like giving
Praying for you. God will see you through. Have faith!
I'm in a hard place but the Lord is right there
Please Lord, son of David, give us the privilege to be healthy, good, to have and give love, to prosper Lord, to be wise, to have sucess, to be happy and to be free and have peace in our lives sweet and precious Jesus we need you we love you amen 💕 💖 ♥
Hard places are given to strong people! Powerful.

I'm so glad that my family and I went to church this morning today! Great Sunday message Bishop TD Jakes!
Please anyone reading this message pray for me…My mind will be settled only when I’ll be able to build a semi permanent building for worship
🙏🏾🙏🏾🙏🏾🙏🏾
God will give u strength to go thru the grief of losing ur son. It's not easy and he will give y strength and a covering over u . Cry when u need to, let the tears flow it's a cleansing. Pray for God to help u go thru this process of losing ur child it's not easy but pray to our father in heaven and talk to him to help u and he will. God Bless You!
Pray for my son who is. In jail
I pray with all my heart that your son makes it safely home, ma'am. I pray that he is able to endure the loneliness and psychological warfare. I pray that he stays away from contraband and questionable people, and that he thrives despite the harsh atmosphere. I pray that he becomes aware of how to take care of himself without being placed in a situation where defending himself can get him time added to his sentence. I pray that God is with him and a constant presence in His heart that leads him to reflect bank in his mind and identify the actions, thoughts, desires, behaviors, and peer pressures that led him along the path to incarceration, no matter how painful that may be. And I pray that he discovers that accountability will help him dig his way out when blame will only dig him deeper.
What did he do?? Pray that he turns his Life around....
@@nothx512That's not important. Lord we plead the blood of Jesus over him that he is covered until the day he is released.
@@nothx512 FACTS! That is the first question that I thought.
If he "chose" to commit a crime, the prayer should be that he quits making choices that land him in chains⛓️.
What purpose is it for him to be released if his MIND has not changed? Sometimes jail is a blessing for people to wake up.🤷🏽♀️
I believe and declare that I will become a father to a healthy baby in the mighty name of our Lord and Saviour Jesus Christ.
I really needed this tonight, let the holy spirit move. I repent on blaming the people in churches, in God. Guilty but I just recently learned this other view because I didn't know. Thank you Jesus for still being with me. It's cold and dark but I know there's light at the end of this. I'll pray that I can use what I received here tonight to move me forward tomorrow and keep me lifted and get through this rough time and stand back up. Even though I feel alone I'm never alone amen. Thank you Jesus for using Td Jake's to deliver. 🙏
What a powerful sermon to end the year!!!! The drought is over in the name of Jesus. In tears as I am listening to this, felt the move of the Holy Spirit. Thank you Jesus!!!!!!!!!!!
That sermon was 💯💯💯💯❗
The drought is over, cleanse my palate Lord Jesus my rock🙏🏾🙌🏾
I wish they would broadcast the WHOLEEEE SERMON.
THE ENDING WHEN LADY SERETA JAKES WALKED LITERALLY HAD ME IN TEARS I FELT THE WHOLEEE HOLY SPIRIT IN MY CAR!!!
The beginning and ending are just as powerful!

God bless the Potter’s House! 🙏🏼✨🤍
I was in the building today my first time in Dallas Texas and I was tremendously blessed
Hard places are often difficult 🙏
Please keep me and my son's in prayer bishop
Progress Under Pressure. That statement describes my life. No matter what trials or tribulations you have, you gotta keep it moving. All though I walk through The Valley of the Shadow of Death, I will fear no evil for God is with me.🙌🙏

Hallelujah Glory to God Watching from Nairobi Kenya 🇰🇪🇰🇪🇰🇪 East Africa 🙏🌍
I had to listen to this twice!
LIFE IS HARD WHEN YOU KEEP GOING YOUR OWN WAY!!!! WHEN YOU RUN FROM PROBLEMS ONLY TO MEET A NEW SET OF PROBLEMS AT ANOTHER PLACES!!!!
I NOW UNDERSTAND WHAT MAMA WENT THRU BEING COMPLETELY ALONE IN A
HOUSE FULL OF PEOPLE ALL NEEDING SOMETHING FROM YOU THAT HAD NOTHING TO GIVE THEM!!! FOUND ONLY
ONE PERSON A CHILD THAT SHE PUSHED AND BURDEN TO DO WHAT ADULTS REFUSED TO GIVE BECAUSE THEY WERE TOO SELFISHED!!!!
IN CONCLUSION I WAS RAISED AND LIVED
IN HARD PLACES AND TOLD THAT I WAS A GIVER AND THEY WERE THE TAKERS BUT
IT WAS ONLY THAT I HAD A WILLING HEART!!! BUT NOW!!!!! MY WILLING HEART
MADE ME THE TAKER NO LONGER THE GIVER!!!! BUT I AM STILL WORKING THRU
HARD PLACES AND WINNING WOUNDED!!!
BECAUSE GOD STILL HEALS ALL WOUNDS NO MATTER HOW LONG OR DEEP!!!!
I'm so happy to see Bishop's message this Monday morning ❤
The Word that strengthened my whole Being. "Moses didn't go into the promise land because He didn't Sanctify the Name of God before the people!" Sheesh, listen, I prayed for the revelation for this season of my life. It's been tough, and God said Sanctify my name before the people regardless✨️✨️✨️

Everything Bishop preached and talked on , I am going through with my kids and seeing what they are dealing with their Dad first hand. I was supposed to listen to this Sunday so that it would have prepared me for what I was going hear and experience today. But it happened and this message came at the right time. Bishop you were speaking and hitting on every situation- Wow!! It’s like GOD was speaking this message directly to me but using you to deliver it. I saved this to listen to again.
I'm homeless in st Pete Florida I'm in need 🙏🏾🙏🏾 it been hard I feel like a fool no kids no wife I really losing my mind I been praying 💔💔💔🫀👣👣
Be encouraged
Continue to pray sir, you have the perfect canvas for God to work, use this time to fall in Love with God, learn Him and learn yourself! Declare the mind of Christ over yourself. Praying for you
Prayer brother
Thank you for this message father God! You are always on time 🙌🏾
He was looking in the screen talking to me. I boo hooed Iike a baby during this service. It really made me sit and own some stuff. Peace and love everyone❤
Ingratitude can blind you to your purpose 🙏
I literally said this to a cowrkr yesterday...devil says they only worship because you bless them. The test is will you hold onto him when he lets you be afflicted. 😢. It ain't easy.
One of the best he has ever preached!
I was so blessed listening to this sermon 🙌🏾🙌🏾
I've been exhausted during my WILDERNESS SEASONS, BUT GOD continued and continues to FILL ME UP. HALLELUJAH, IM GRATEFUL AND THANKFUL FATHER, IN JESUS NAME, AMEN!
PREACH PASTOR JAKES! LEADERS get exhausted too, but don't have the luxury to quit when they're on DIVINE ASSIGNMENTS, HALLELUJAH.
