My heart and soul little ones Lord Jesus Christ my Lord and Savior and son of God I pray slam and worship them and find them from Mars they’ve had on me
I needed this tonight. Thank you Pastor. My depression feels like it’s been eating me alive lately. But I know God is stronger. He is a God of marvels and miracles and love. And I know he can save me! Anyone else suffering with depression and anxiety please know you’re not alone! I feel your pain! And only Jesus can save us from the dark
Thank you for showing me who my Rock is. My anxiety depression and panic attacks were my rod. My medication I carry is my rod. My family is my rod. I need you Jesus to be my rock. Anxiety depression and panic attacks you have no authority over my life anymore. It’s not about emotions. It’s not about me. It’s about Jesus. Jesus be my rock. My foundation. Thank you God for having mercy and grace on me. I want to be where you want me to go. Use my experiences. To bring people to you. Be my rock, Jesus. Thank you daddy God for loving me.
Why once we sincerely believe we are given a new Spirit and heart that is the very Holy Spirit of God. Through relationship (not religion) by faith through grace, God co labors with us to give us understanding and an eternal perspective that frees us from the things of this fallen world, lusts, passions for sin, are all NOT who we are anymore, and unless you intentionally turn away from that intimacy with Daddy God?...you WILL just be transformed and all that is not aligned with Jesus will just fall away, as long as you stay focused on Jesus Christ our Lord and God. That freedom that only God's Holy Spirit can give us and the peace and abiding joy that the world knows nothing of, IS the gift. God is not your slot machine, nor will everything go right for you because you are attending church and call yourself a Christian. The simple gospel is Jesus plus nothing, and the absolute unspeakable joy that enables us to not let even our own Children's problems take us down, Nothing and nobody should EVER be Lord if it isn't Jesus Christ. The best day of my Christian life was the day I died to selfish self seeking mindsets. We who believe and stand firmly on that, regardless of how things are going, and continue in praise and thankful no matter what? WILL know Him for He loves you and wants a relationship with you, and to give you a purpose, and destiny, which has nothing to do with titles, bank accounts, houses, none of that. The why I am a Christian is the question all should be answering, and if it isn't so Christ in you, the hope of God's glory, and the just amazing mercy, grace, and peace that comes from knowing HIM and walking with Him?? then you never opened the gift that is everything and I pray with all I am that you will seek to know the God of ALL creation in Jesus Christ and its in His mighty name I pray, Amen. Sorry Brad my Brother, I got swept up. Peace be to you always!
@@carladean2339 Amen, Antichrist call himself Lord, Kings and God's or JESUS, no man on earth is worthy to say he is until we see him in the sky when the trumpet blows!
When things get hard, it's because God is about to bring you into the Promised Land and the devil is trying to distract you. Wow. This is something i never realized, and this is something that is gonna change my life.
Watching this an hour before my very first college class. I have been so nervous because I know it will be stressful, but this sermon is helping to calm my soul
Just remember, it's okay to feel nervous, uncertain, scared - but you just do the next right thing and keep breathing, kiddo. God has GOT YOU, you hear? Blessings.
The Lord is with you. You will not fail. Stay with him. Trust in him. He will see you through. You will come out of college with a smile on your face and a feeling of awe with all God has done. Best of luck to you. Psalm 91:2
Lord I pray that there is zero room for the devil to get through our mind and thoughts so we can rejoice in the name of Jesus and positivity 100%. Fill us with your word lord and let there be no more room anything else I pray in Jesus name. Amen! Hallelujah!!!
Pastor Steven has taught me so much about God, bible characters, and how to overcome hardships & trials. Thank you for molding me into a better Christian.
Same to me..2018 has been tough year for me & my family..but every sermon he has preached ths year makes me stronger each week.. Thankful..Much love from Nairobi Kenya 😘
yep in the hardest time of my life... sermons from steven furtick online and studying further reading on my own - has done WAY more than the social club church i once went to.
Please pray for my fathers health , his name is Peter D , today we did ct scan and doctor say that he MAY have cancer , BUT even though it MAY be there BUT I confess that GOD WANTS MY DAD WELL, PLEASE PRAY
This sermon have helped me understand my own mistakes i have been exploding, blaming on people and the devil but i have realized i'm a prisoner to my own thoughts, imaginations and focusing too much on my defisit that's why i have a broken focus i can't see what God is doing now, i can't hear His voice due to distractions im my mind, I'M TAKING MY MIND BACK thanks for this sermon
Hi everyone. I’ve got to this crossroads before and I pulled away from Jesus as I didn’t feel strong enough for the battle. A few months later I’m back and I’m DETERMINED with the grace of God and with his hand to keep walking forwards and forwards. Sometimes I can feel the devil trying to pull me back, and for a split second I flounder but I will stay WITH God. Please I ask for you to pray for me to keep moving forward and not to be afraid. Any prayer requests please let me know. I hope you are all having a truly blessed day and I love you all, people of God❤️
Yasmine Sarah, I pray for you You are strong but GODS word is stronger continue to fight the devil, continue to follow the LORD. May Jesus Christ take your hand and show you the way to his kingdom. GOD is the way and through him you will find peace🙏 Amen! I am also struggling with problems of my own. Severe panic attacks and anxiety which is what brought me here and everything he says has touched my heart and made me realize that I wasn't giving my all and allowing the devil to come close to me. I will not let him pull me down. Let's stand together and conquer him!!
I am a new believer that just recently got saved and I had to take a minute to appreciate elevation church and Mr.Steven Furtick. I listen to at least 4 sermons a day everyday. I praise God for this ministry I really receive from it!
As an Old Testament PhD student I appreciate Pr. Furtick's emphasis on the importance of learning Hebrew in order to catch those little nuances in the text. (12:47 on) Man, this guy impresses me every time!
I’m crying right now because I relate COMPLETELY but also because it’s so beautiful that you admitted these things. It’s so PURE. Thank you for sharing yourself and allowing us to see this of you because some of us feel just like you. Bless you, your family, and Elevation Church!
ok and yoga or exhaling is all you could do to maintain a identity or ora or a light of rebuke and lingering boy b wonna bees girl they not for us im liddo christian hoe here and i dont tell them and i dont let go she already preaching but its like horns not a belieber of cards just bet , but plural...not the tv channelidk how i am coming off but i am country songs too not just rap and cool people who spitt'n is this so wretched to cross my legs sis when i know i believe in marriage and i naturally used to sit like that now its called for or a better way to put that is lik feels forced not too but my number is nt big just morally it is not for me and my life snd my girls have children not owned and or wanted plus i dont know if they are spiritual and can noticce little sister things but dang just delete me f o and ok ty for prayer.

I've been frustrated with the Bible, God and the Israelites for years because it's bothered me that Moses didn't get to go to the Promised Land. After all that he did. After all those years. I told a friend of mine a few months ago, the first time I've ever said it aloud, my frustration with the way the story of Moses ends. BUT GOD! He knew I would stumble upon this message. Oh, how timely this message is. And, because of this message, I see God in my life and trust God differently now. Thank you, Pastor Furtick! I never knew how much of me is in Moses. Maybe that's why I've been so angry about this passage because it's how I feel about my own personal circumstances. Thank you again. Now I know what to do.
I think about this a lot. Moses made this one error & it was severe enough that he wasn't allowed into the promised land. How many times daily do we make errors "screw up"? Moses was a good man & I'm so far from his level. This always really made me think. This teaching makes so much sense & helped me a lot. Now, I get it. @ 15:45 good preaching right there. It's the truth. And, I'm telling you. I read/heard somewhere that the devil will attempt to put Christians against Christians in the last days. Is this not happening? I don't want any part of that. Also, so many pastors preach the feel good but I'm telling you when you're on the right path, you will get hit. You'd think, "well I'm doing good. This ought to be easy". Nope.... it's almost a sign that when you get hit that you're on the right path. Know this is the way it is in my life. It's usually a series of hits. You might have the wilderness, refining, then the devil takes a few jabs at you. God must think I'm a tough cookie but I usually feel like a soft marshmallow.
Calling All Hands On Deck! When you’re living for God you get this big target on your back. Now you’re important to the devil. He doesn’t need to chase people in the path of destruction, they don’t need any help from the devil. Instead he comes after the ones he is losing. Stay strong and fight this battle for it is worth it.
not similarr just body marshmello ok its like peopl see what years of practice does in couple dreams and then its amazingly crazy how beautiful the ten years caught up to 22 yrs now near the 27th level for the fact of lack in her life and its as if the generation listening knows now that the lord is a jelouse god and a sovigrn judge and will help all wven the mean and evil but that term has the dager in it and the chains for its exceptence to only change what it takes to life and to live,..wtf
Sometimes an ex- Christian needs validation that their interpretation of God’s word as viable. Your mission may bring us back to Church! But I personally have never took my sight off of Jesus. I was searching for truth. You nailed this on the head for me. Praise God! His mercy endures forever!
I just realized that the backdrop is in green and red, as if picturing how God can change the color of a messed up relationship into a good positive and living and well, relationship. Awesome!
This is the first time in my life. That not only Has the pastor made it? Cool that maybe the wrong words unacceptable To be a Christian to worship God. But his words penetrate the years of Flesh, this was not what I wanted. I was okay and living in the world. But something has slapped me. And I can't stop listening. I actually picked up a Bible. I guess what I'm saying is I'm just grateful. To know that God had a plan all along. And it's coming full circle. I'm so excited, but still have a lot to work to do.
Great word ❤ I love Pastor Steven because he is real and doesn't pretend to be perfect. I thank God for Elavation Church and Pastor Steven's obedience to God.
Humble myself.. Its not about me.. Single Parenting, divorce, work, and studying .. I let my frustration take over.. But i want to go in to the promise land. I don't want to explode anymore. Depression and anxiety will not define in my life.. I will speak to my weakness.. And hand it over to God.. I will trust him.
You NEVER disappoint Pastor Steven!!! You and your sermons lead me to God. I read the bible daily and watch at least four of your sermons a day. I have never felt God speak through anyone like I do you. You and your wife, Holly are such a blessing!!! She is so amazing as well. I am so very very very grateful for Elevation Church. I know Jesus now because of you!!! Thank you so much for your dedication to God!!! Your pastor was right when he said God has his hand on you.
I thank God for the transparency of this man of God. Something that we lack in the body of Christ, because we sometimes forget that our righteousness is as filthy rags.
Don' t keep preaching keep preaching keep preaching. Stop remember who you are. Remember the just one who believes you made how many of us are none that just one.❤ preach on preach, preach on.
Steven Furtick speaks and my heart is healed! Is he aware, when he speaks, he actually heals! Is he aware, that everytime I am lost, God uses him to teach me. Thank you Steven Furtick! Thank you God! ❤️
@Jana Kolarova, thank you for joining us and for sharing how God is using Pastor Steven's messages in your life. We invite you to join us for a full experience on Sunday at 9:30 AM, 11:30 AM, 2:00 PM, 5:00 PM, 8:00 PM, and 10:00 PM or on Monday and Wednesday 7:00 PM EST.
Ooooooh Lord Almighty please keep blessing this pastor in every area of his life, OMG!!!!! I'm lacking sufficient vocab to express what your sermons and those of everyone you invite are helping me to get out of this cruel DEPRESSION!!!!! TO GOD BE THE GLORY!!! THANKS GOD FOR YOUR CHURCH, PLS STAY THAT HUMBLE AND DIVINELY HUMOROUS!!?? HALLELUJAH
Let’s not quarrel as people that should be united in bringing forth the recovery of hearts to love, express empathy, and live a life full of goodness and peace.
A few years ago Pastor Furtick was speaking at a local church near me in Sumiton,AL. I reached out to an old friend from my youth group, not having attended church in years I really wanted to hear him speak. Filled with uncertainty and that I wasn't worthy to walk through the door I ended up not making it to hear the message. This wasn't because I didn't feel welcomed I just got good at isolating over the years and not great in crowds. After all this time and watching videos like this it has brought me back to not only hearing his voice but others in the community as well. It sounds as if their saying we have been watching over you all this time. I've learned that when I make a mistake I have to learn from it and no longer attending a school, church, or place of employment doesn't erase what happened but going back allows me to learn from the experience taking the lesson with me always striving to be better. Even on my worst day not being able to show it I'm extremely grateful to be learning and wanting to try
Amazing preaching! I want to share a little struggle I been going through, I currently lost my job was struggling with depression and anxiety because it’s been hard to find a good job...adding to that my family been struggling to find a home to move in because I am not able to help financially, we had in till February to move out & sadly we haven’t found anything. I felt stressed & hopeless.. after hearing your preaching I started crying and realized I have to declare that everything will be okay, and God is in control! I know God has something big for me & my family after the storm GBY Steven !
Deficit: empathy and wisdom Disappointment: crucify our expectation of others Dependence: I’m not the rock.... he is my stable place, he is my solid ground...on Christ the solid rock I stand, all other ground is sinking sand Speak to the rock...don’t strike it
THIS man is consistently transparently humbly and EFFECTIVELY communicating the TRUE GOSPEL OF JESUS CHRIST and I am absolutely BLESSED to have stumbled upon his videos. Hope you see this Seven. YOU ROCK JC LIKE NOBODIES BUSINESS
The sermon entitled....triggered taking back your mind by pastor furtick. Pastor furtick I believe and have been instructed to say....it is not that your love for people is leaving you when you feel the need to not even answer the phone ....at those times..... is the time..... for you to take time...... for yourself. My mom use to say shes recharging her batteries. Look at the big picture. you give away so much of yourself on a daily basis.. even God rested the seventh day for himself.... it's okay ....take some time for yourself On a regular basis and you will feel refreshed and be amazed at how much you still love people .....God bless you. all the glory goes to God.
i am watching church thank you jesus i have to give my sprit whould this gave. more power n will..in jesus God has in the main source of my mind n heart......always...yes...hes is secoud chances..aleyula 1:14
Thank you, Pastor Furtick and your family. For being the conductors of our Father's reality to His people. I honestly feel defeated instead of blessed. However, we know our Father is Omnipresent and we can count on Him at every hour of the night. In Jesus mighty name. Amen
I needed this. I've been so stressed over my trial 12/19/19 and for once in my life I'm finally innocent but yet I face 10-30yrs. With all that the regrets and life in general is too much n honestly I been striking the Rock and Its time to start talking to God . I've been waiting on my miracle but when it's all said and done waiters serve. Stumble on pastor Steven a few days ago and watch one to two videos a day. dude is amazing. I'm a reborn again Christian and I'm working on speaking to my rock. Pray for God will to be done even if I got to do prison time
This message has blessed me so. I am in warfare right and the enemy thinks he has won, but he is a liar. This message has blessed my spirit with prayer strategies to hit the target to defeat Satan! To God be the glory!
@Rene Marshall I am so glad this message has given you practical tools to help fight and defeat the enemy. I'm praying for victory for you today that ignites a stronger and deeper faith. ^EC Team
Every time I watch your sermons I get goosebumbs. They really speak to me especially this one today. I need to trust God more and I know I haven't a lot but im working on it. For I know when im weak I am strong. Im still trying to learn that. Im battling addiction right now and my own mind. im sober now but the devil is trying to attack my mind daily but I literally watch these sermons and go to meetings all dau when im free and it helps me. If I dont I find myself falling into the ememys hands and Im fighting for my life I dont want to go back to that life and sometimes I feel ok and other days i feel like im falling apart. But everytime I do fall God is there to pick me back up and accepts me with open arms but i dony want to fall anymore. I dont want to disspoint God anymore I want to bring Him glory but i don't know how.
I'm watching this video for a second time.. I have to once again say to you, your humbleness an being real with everyone is , so refreshing to many people. Myself included.. You get it.. You are not fake an real is needed.. Just a 56 year old woman giving you a honest opinion. You don't need, or want my opinion maybe, but I hope you see this.. You are reaching people who, like myself, have things to deal with an you are showing us who to go to.. God Bless.
@Angela Fortner, amen. We agree with you about Pastor Steven. Thank you for watching and sharing. We invite you to join us for a full experience (with worship) on Sunday at 9:30 AM, 11:30 AM, 2:00 PM, 5:00 PM, 8:00 PM, and 10:00 PM or on Monday and Wednesday 7:00 PM EST.
Help me God to get my mind back. I'm trying to fight the devil but I feel weak. Give me strength God. I want to give up but I feel you pushing me. I need you God. Isolation takes over me. Help me fight. Thanks Pastor Steven for speaking to me.
But God said, “I am.” God, You are enough and when I am not enough it’s the perfect time for You, God to fill in and teach me more of what You are. You are the rock that is higher than I am.
i have heard many a sermon about why Moses struck the Rock and what it represented but Pastor Furtick took this to another level that really blew my mind! I've always been taught it was because of his anger. Made perfect sense to me. I'm sure all the murmuring, complaining and arguing drove him crazy at times. Moses was a great leader and I have great admiration for him being able to lead those people for nearly 40 years and still be sane!! I saw something else very interesting in this passage that Moses and Aaron's sister Miriam had just died so that had to be weighing on him as well. They were in mourning on top of all that going on. I can see how Moses had come to a boiling point. I feel for him being in that position and not being able to enter the promised land after longing for it for all those years. But he obviously was redeemed. God continued to use Moses generations after he no longer walked the earth. He was given the honor along with Elijah of appearing with Jesus in the Transfiguration! I'm really enjoying this series and it has to be heaven sent because its teaching so many of us about ourselves and how to identify things within ourselves we never saw before. I love the way Pastor Furtick said the devil is loud like a lion but the only place he is loud is in my mind!! So true. Now to recognize that's him speaking doom and gloom, discouragement and depression. I thank God for the day my youngest son and I just happened to stumble upon this church a couple of months ago!! God bless and keep you all
I'm new just started 2 weeks ago you are an inspiration I'm not a big Tv watcher but I saw u passing one couldn't wait to hear you God is stirring something up I don't believe in luck but blessings yes,I luv God he must have wanted me to trust you in on part 2 of this im hooked
Julia Kansas City Missouri.. praise the Lord! Thank you Pastor for your Sermons everyday all day! God bless you & your family & all of our church family that we fellowship with! 🙏🏻
Seriously. Are you and God sitting in on my therapy sessions LOL Good Stuff Pastor Furtick. Thank you for your obedience in doing this series and for your transparency.
This one really got to me because I admit a lot times I try and be the rock but then get mad at myself when I disappoint people so thank you pastor Steven for reminding me who the rock is
My wife and i love listening to your sermons thank you for being here for us!! We are in need of another home would you be willing to pray for us? God bless you and your family!!
At this point I find it hard to live for anything. It's so hard, I'm just so tired, I'm hurting so bad. I'm weak, I can't even eat, it's a struggle just to keep food down, I'm just not okay. Not anywhere near it. And im trying I'm really trying, i'm praying and I just seem to be getting no where. Idk anymore . I'm always put as a second choice and everyone overlooks my kindess I just wanna give up but thank you Steven for your amazing sermons they truly help me regain strength.
I have always struggled with being the second choice as well. I grew up in a loving Christian home, but it was evident (or at least to me) that I was not the first choice of either of my parents. I always told my friends (jokingly anyway) about this struggle. In my mind, I was going to get married someday and I'll be my husband's first choice. Guess what....I did get married but now I'm divorced and my ex is getting married to someone else soon. He told me to that I was not his family and coming back to me will be betraying his own family. That hurt really deep because it brought to surface my deepest insecurity. I lost my faith in God, I withdrew from everyone because I thought I was a complete dissapointment and I was afraid of letting my guard down for someone else to hurt me. I'm back to God now and He is teaching me something I should have let Him teach me a long long time ago....that He is my rock and not anyone mortal.....that even if I may never be anyone's first choice, I am His.....and that even if my kindness is trampled on, He sees it all and appreciates it all....and above all, all the noice in my head is the devil. It's hard fully accepting this truth (because this is a completely different perspective than I have had my entire life) but I find comfort knowing that it takes time to reorientate one's mind and God will not judge me for that. Everyday, I choose to believe God's Words and not the devil's lies, it's a choice I have to make everyday. I choose to have Him fight my battles and not try to manipulate situations by myself...I choose to forgive even when the world tells me I have a right not to.....I choose to hope for a brighter future even when there is nothing physical to show that it will happen....I choose these things not because of who I am (a fallen mortal being) but because of whose I am (the immortal everlasting allable God)....I hope you find some comfort in this
@@mssmile6592 i appreciated this so much things have gotten alot better since then but also really worse today God showed me so eye opening signs and the last part you typed was another thank you thank you thank you for this I really appreciate this and I'm glad God helped you thank you!!😭❤

God bless you all! Don't forget that God doesn't just call the qualified, He qualifies the called. :)
Amen
I like that, he qualifies the called. 🙏🕊✨ Here is hope 🔒 🔑
Hi everyone. I’ve got to this crossroads before and I pulled away from Jesus as I didn’t feel strong enough for the battle. A few months later I’m back and I’m DETERMINED with the grace of God and with his hand to keep walking forwards and forwards. Sometimes I can feel the devil trying to pull me back, and for a split second I flounder but I will stay WITH God. Please I ask for you to pray for me to keep moving forward and not to be afraid. Any prayer requests please let me know. I hope you are all having a truly blessed day and I love you all, people of God❤️
Yasmine Sarah, I pray for you You are strong but GODS word is stronger continue to fight the devil, continue to follow the LORD. May Jesus Christ take your hand and show you the way to his kingdom. GOD is the way and through him you will find peace🙏 Amen! I am also struggling with problems of my own. Severe panic attacks and anxiety which is what brought me here and everything he says has touched my heart and made me realize that I wasn't giving my all and allowing the devil to come close to me. I will not let him pull me down. Let's stand together and conquer him!!
You are doing everything so right, Through Our Son Jesus Christ.God is Great.and he planted a PERFECT SEED...
YOU AND YOUR FAMILY.AMEN

I am a new believer that just recently got saved and I had to take a minute to appreciate elevation church and Mr.Steven Furtick. I listen to at least 4 sermons a day everyday. I praise God for this ministry I really receive from it!
Your the only preacher that could really break the bible and i could relate and listen to and i feel the hol y spirt everytime
This was for me... Really grateful for Elevation Church and Pastor Furtick as they help me navigate through life.
We're grateful for you! We are praying for you today 🙏
As an Old Testament PhD student I appreciate Pr. Furtick's emphasis on the importance of learning Hebrew in order to catch those little nuances in the text. (12:47 on) Man, this guy impresses me every time!
I’m crying right now because I relate COMPLETELY but also because it’s so beautiful that you admitted these things. It’s so PURE. Thank you for sharing yourself and allowing us to see this of you because some of us feel just like you. Bless you, your family, and Elevation Church!
Thank you for not harrassing each other.
The thoughts you think in this season, is the outcome you will see.🎯

Pastor Furtick is so raw and real. I really appreciate this insight to Moses' life and his personal life.🙌🏾🙌🏾🙌🏾
🙏🙏🙏🙏🙏AMEN
lets fight this Fight Together..praechhh
I've been frustrated with the Bible, God and the Israelites for years because it's bothered me that Moses didn't get to go to the Promised Land. After all that he did. After all those years.
I told a friend of mine a few months ago, the first time I've ever said it aloud, my frustration with the way the story of Moses ends. BUT GOD!
He knew I would stumble upon this message. Oh, how timely this message is. And, because of this message, I see God in my life and trust God differently now. Thank you, Pastor Furtick! I never knew how much of me is in Moses. Maybe that's why I've been so angry about this passage because it's how I feel about my own personal circumstances.
Thank you again. Now I know what to do.
I trust my father. I will trust you .
I think about this a lot. Moses made this one error & it was severe enough that he wasn't allowed into the promised land. How many times daily do we make errors "screw up"? Moses was a good man & I'm so far from his level. This always really made me think. This teaching makes so much sense & helped me a lot. Now, I get it. @ 15:45 good preaching right there. It's the truth. And, I'm telling you. I read/heard somewhere that the devil will attempt to put Christians against Christians in the last days. Is this not happening? I don't want any part of that. Also, so many pastors preach the feel good but I'm telling you when you're on the right path, you will get hit. You'd think, "well I'm doing good. This ought to be easy". Nope.... it's almost a sign that when you get hit that you're on the right path. Know this is the way it is in my life. It's usually a series of hits. You might have the wilderness, refining, then the devil takes a few jabs at you. God must think I'm a tough cookie but I usually feel like a soft marshmallow.
Calling All Hands On Deck! When you’re living for God you get this big target on your back. Now you’re important to the devil. He doesn’t need to chase people in the path of destruction, they don’t need any help from the devil. Instead he comes after the ones he is losing. Stay strong and fight this battle for it is worth it.
Agreed!! I thought I was the only one who felt this way. Thankfully, Pastor Furtick made it all make sense.
not similarr just body marshmello ok its like peopl see what years of practice does in couple dreams and then its amazingly crazy how beautiful the ten years caught up to 22 yrs now near the 27th level for the fact of lack in her life and its as if the generation listening knows now that the lord is a jelouse god and a sovigrn judge and will help all wven the mean and evil but that term has the dager in it and the chains for its exceptence to only change what it takes to life and to live,..wtf
is that the rapture ?or .org eh wha??
I'm so glad I'm watching this and I'm not by myself. Attacks are rapid, but I keep pushing.
Sometimes an ex- Christian needs validation that their interpretation of God’s word as viable. Your mission may bring us back to Church! But I personally have never took my sight off of Jesus. I was searching for truth. You nailed this on the head for me. Praise God! His mercy endures forever!
I'm not the Rock. God is my Rock therefore I can stand. My God I truly appreciate your Word preached by Pastor Steven
I just realized that the backdrop is in green and red, as if picturing how God can change the color of a messed up relationship into a good positive and living and well, relationship. Awesome!
you are more to the body of Christ than you know !! keep being real, that's what people need !!!
This is the first time in my life. That not only Has the pastor made it? Cool that maybe the wrong words unacceptable To be a Christian to worship God. But his words penetrate the years of Flesh, this was not what I wanted. I was okay and living in the world. But something has slapped me. And I can't stop listening. I actually picked up a Bible. I guess what I'm saying is I'm just grateful. To know that God had a plan all along. And it's coming full circle. I'm so excited, but still have a lot to work to do.
The glory of God shows up when you have surrendered.
At 60 yrs i am ready for 💯% free from a double minded bent and so done and tired of starting over.❎❌💢™🕊
No you’ll grow and learn with your following. What an admirable leader to be!
Great word ❤ I love Pastor Steven because he is real and doesn't pretend to be perfect.
I thank God for Elavation Church and Pastor Steven's obedience to God.
Humble myself.. Its not about me.. Single Parenting, divorce, work, and studying .. I let my frustration take over.. But i want to go in to the promise land. I don't want to explode anymore. Depression and anxiety will not define in my life.. I will speak to my weakness.. And hand it over to God.. I will trust him.
I pray that ET - (Eric Thomas) & Pastor Steven Furtick team up one day to talk to the youth. ❤️
You NEVER disappoint Pastor Steven!!! You and your sermons lead me to God. I read the bible daily and watch at least four of your sermons a day. I have never felt God speak through anyone like I do you. You and your wife, Holly are such a blessing!!! She is so amazing as well. I am so very very very grateful for Elevation Church. I know Jesus now because of you!!! Thank you so much for your dedication to God!!! Your pastor was right when he said God has his hand on you.
I thank God for the transparency of this man of God. Something that we lack in the body of Christ, because we sometimes forget that our righteousness is as filthy rags.
Don' t keep preaching keep preaching keep preaching. Stop remember who you are. Remember the just one who believes you made how many of us are none that just one.❤ preach on preach, preach on.
My depression is full throttle and this just gave me such hope and peace that God is bigger and stronger then my depression!
Thank you Holy Spirit for using this man to bring me a Word! Please pray for me that I stay strong!
Steven Furtick speaks and my heart is healed! Is he aware, when he speaks, he actually heals! Is he aware, that everytime I am lost, God uses him to teach me. Thank you Steven Furtick! Thank you God! ❤️

I needed this message today I am bipolar and anxiety disorder I know that God will heal me Angie I have been clean and sober for 109 now
God loves you
Let’s not quarrel as people that should be united in bringing forth the recovery of hearts to love, express empathy, and live a life full of goodness and peace.
A few years ago Pastor Furtick was speaking at a local church near me in Sumiton,AL. I reached out to an old friend from my youth group, not having attended church in years I really wanted to hear him speak. Filled with uncertainty and that I wasn't worthy to walk through the door I ended up not making it to hear the message. This wasn't because I didn't feel welcomed I just got good at isolating over the years and not great in crowds. After all this time and watching videos like this it has brought me back to not only hearing his voice but others in the community as well. It sounds as if their saying we have been watching over you all this time. I've learned that when I make a mistake I have to learn from it and no longer attending a school, church, or place of employment doesn't erase what happened but going back allows me to learn from the experience taking the lesson with me always striving to be better. Even on my worst day not being able to show it I'm extremely grateful to be learning and wanting to try
Christianity has not given me anything until NOW! THANK YOU Pastor Steven Furtick, very inspiring and uplifting :-)
Amazing preaching! I want to share a little struggle I been going through, I currently lost my job was struggling with depression and anxiety because it’s been hard to find a good job...adding to that my family been struggling to find a home to move in because I am not able to help financially, we had in till February to move out & sadly we haven’t found anything. I felt stressed & hopeless.. after hearing your preaching I started crying and realized I have to declare that everything will be okay, and God is in control! I know God has something big for me & my family after the storm GBY Steven !
Deficit: empathy and wisdom
Disappointment: crucify our expectation of others
Dependence: I’m not the rock.... he is my stable place, he is my solid ground...on Christ the solid rock I stand, all other ground is sinking sand
Speak to the rock...don’t strike it
Psalm114:8
45:18 if they will let me...
THIS man is consistently transparently humbly and EFFECTIVELY communicating the TRUE GOSPEL OF JESUS CHRIST and I am absolutely BLESSED to have stumbled upon his videos. Hope you see this Seven. YOU ROCK JC LIKE NOBODIES BUSINESS
We must remember, WE ALREADY HAVE VICTORY OVER THE WILES OF THE DEVIL...PSALMS 34:19...
The sermon entitled....triggered taking back your mind by pastor furtick. Pastor furtick I believe and have been instructed to say....it is not that your love for people is leaving you when you feel the need to not even answer the phone ....at those times..... is the time..... for you to take time...... for yourself. My mom use to say shes recharging her batteries. Look at the big picture. you give away so much of yourself on a daily basis.. even God rested the seventh day for himself.... it's okay ....take some time for yourself On a regular basis and you will feel refreshed and be amazed at how much you still love people .....God bless you. all the glory goes to God.
I take on my on responsibility. I can keep moving . I know there is a greater point and time.
The devil is trying but we got to take our stand on the promises of GOD & use the shield of faith & the finished work at CALVARY by JESUS CHRIST
One of my favorite sermons. This has so much meaning to so many areas in my life and I'm sure it has the same for many others.
Wow me again!!!!!
On Christ the solid ground I stand. The Rock of my salvation!!!! WOW!!!
i am watching church thank you jesus i have to give my sprit whould this gave. more power n will..in jesus God has in the main source of my mind n heart......always...yes...hes is secoud chances..aleyula 1:14
Yeah we need a preaching/teaching about focus.
Thank you, Pastor Furtick and your family. For being the conductors of our Father's reality to His people. I honestly feel defeated instead of blessed. However, we know our Father is Omnipresent and we can count on Him at every hour of the night. In Jesus mighty name. Amen
Hide your Church Rock of Ages....
We appreciate you Jesus 🥰
Wow!
WHAT A WORD IN DUE SEASON
I needed this. I've been so stressed over my trial 12/19/19 and for once in my life I'm finally innocent but yet I face 10-30yrs. With all that the regrets and life in general is too much n honestly I been striking the Rock and Its time to start talking to God . I've been waiting on my miracle but when it's all said and done waiters serve. Stumble on pastor Steven a few days ago and watch one to two videos a day. dude is amazing. I'm a reborn again Christian and I'm working on speaking to my rock. Pray for God will to be done even if I got to do prison time
Pray for my son ,to beat his addiction and to stop being so cruel to his family !
This message has blessed me so. I am in warfare right and the enemy thinks he has won, but he is a liar. This message has blessed my spirit with prayer strategies to hit the target to defeat Satan! To God be the glory!
@Rene Marshall I am so glad this message has given you practical tools to help fight and defeat the enemy. I'm praying for victory for you today that ignites a stronger and deeper faith. ^EC Team
Rene Marshall: standing in prayer with you.
Every time I watch your sermons I get goosebumbs. They really speak to me especially this one today. I need to trust God more and I know I haven't a lot but im working on it. For I know when im weak I am strong. Im still trying to learn that. Im battling addiction right now and my own mind. im sober now but the devil is trying to attack my mind daily but I literally watch these sermons and go to meetings all dau when im free and it helps me. If I dont I find myself falling into the ememys hands and Im fighting for my life I dont want to go back to that life and sometimes I feel ok and other days i feel like im falling apart. But everytime I do fall God is there to pick me back up and accepts me with open arms but i dony want to fall anymore. I dont want to disspoint God anymore I want to bring Him glory but i don't know how.
How are you now?
Is anyone else crying?
Elevation Potato eyes definitely got watery lol
Elevation Potato 🥔 loling at that user name :)
I'm blown away by this message. The raw vulnerability out of s.f. no wonder god is using him
God's ways are higher than our ways...
I'm watching this video for a second time.. I have to once again say to you, your humbleness an being real with everyone is , so refreshing to many people. Myself included.. You get it.. You are not fake an real is needed.. Just a 56 year old woman giving you a honest opinion. You don't need, or want my opinion maybe, but I hope you see this.. You are reaching people who, like myself, have things to deal with an you are showing us who to go to.. God Bless.
@Angela Fortner, amen. We agree with you about Pastor Steven. Thank you for watching and sharing. We invite you to join us for a full experience (with worship) on Sunday at 9:30 AM, 11:30 AM, 2:00 PM, 5:00 PM, 8:00 PM, and 10:00 PM or on Monday and Wednesday 7:00 PM EST.
So powerful, loved this sermon. I just wish the prayer at the end wasn't cut short.
amen praise the lord
Help me God to get my mind back. I'm trying to fight the devil but I feel weak. Give me strength God. I want to give up but I feel you pushing me. I need you God. Isolation takes over me. Help me fight. Thanks Pastor Steven for speaking to me.
I confess God and I trust you
Wow preach it furtick
WOW, brother preach. I've been listening to one video after another. I'm crying, I'm laughing, I'm learning about Jesus. Awesome!
But God said, “I am.” God, You are enough and when I am not enough it’s the perfect time for You, God to fill in and teach me more of what You are. You are the rock that is higher than I am.
i have heard many a sermon about why Moses struck the Rock and what it represented but Pastor Furtick took this to another level that really blew my mind! I've always been taught it was because of his anger. Made perfect sense to me. I'm sure all the murmuring, complaining and arguing drove him crazy at times. Moses was a great leader and I have great admiration for him being able to lead those people for nearly 40 years and still be sane!! I saw something else very interesting in this passage that Moses and Aaron's sister Miriam had just died so that had to be weighing on him as well. They were in mourning on top of all that going on. I can see how Moses had come to a boiling point. I feel for him being in that position and not being able to enter the promised land after longing for it for all those years. But he obviously was redeemed. God continued to use Moses generations after he no longer walked the earth. He was given the honor along with Elijah of appearing with Jesus in the Transfiguration! I'm really enjoying this series and it has to be heaven sent because its teaching so many of us about ourselves and how to identify things within ourselves we never saw before. I love the way Pastor Furtick said the devil is loud like a lion but the only place he is loud is in my mind!! So true. Now to recognize that's him speaking doom and gloom, discouragement and depression. I thank God for the day my youngest son and I just happened to stumble upon this church a couple of months ago!! God bless and keep you all
I'm new just started 2 weeks ago you are an inspiration I'm not a big Tv watcher but I saw u passing one couldn't wait to hear you God is stirring something up I don't believe in luck but blessings yes,I luv God he must have wanted me to trust you in on part 2 of this im hooked

This one really got to me because I admit a lot times I try and be the rock but then get mad at myself when I disappoint people so thank you pastor Steven for reminding me who the rock is
My wife and i love listening to your sermons thank you for being here for us!! We are in need of another home would you be willing to pray for us? God bless you and your family!!

Not sure how you could put a thumbs down on this, great message.
Yessss!!! Bigger you are harder you’ll fall
😭😭😭❤❤❤ speak lord!!! We love each other!!! Quicken us oh God!! One voice!! Your word in our hearts.
mr pastor n mrs holly FURICK all ny mind n heart not drain n i want. my mind clear aleyula
At this point I find it hard to live for anything. It's so hard, I'm just so tired, I'm hurting so bad. I'm weak, I can't even eat, it's a struggle just to keep food down, I'm just not okay. Not anywhere near it. And im trying I'm really trying, i'm praying and I just seem to be getting no where. Idk anymore . I'm always put as a second choice and everyone overlooks my kindess I just wanna give up but thank you Steven for your amazing sermons they truly help me regain strength.
I have always struggled with being the second choice as well. I grew up in a loving Christian home, but it was evident (or at least to me) that I was not the first choice of either of my parents. I always told my friends (jokingly anyway) about this struggle. In my mind, I was going to get married someday and I'll be my husband's first choice. Guess what....I did get married but now I'm divorced and my ex is getting married to someone else soon. He told me to that I was not his family and coming back to me will be betraying his own family. That hurt really deep because it brought to surface my deepest insecurity. I lost my faith in God, I withdrew from everyone because I thought I was a complete dissapointment and I was afraid of letting my guard down for someone else to hurt me. I'm back to God now and He is teaching me something I should have let Him teach me a long long time ago....that He is my rock and not anyone mortal.....that even if I may never be anyone's first choice, I am His.....and that even if my kindness is trampled on, He sees it all and appreciates it all....and above all, all the noice in my head is the devil. It's hard fully accepting this truth (because this is a completely different perspective than I have had my entire life) but I find comfort knowing that it takes time to reorientate one's mind and God will not judge me for that. Everyday, I choose to believe God's Words and not the devil's lies, it's a choice I have to make everyday. I choose to have Him fight my battles and not try to manipulate situations by myself...I choose to forgive even when the world tells me I have a right not to.....I choose to hope for a brighter future even when there is nothing physical to show that it will happen....I choose these things not because of who I am (a fallen mortal being) but because of whose I am (the immortal everlasting allable God)....I hope you find some comfort in this
@@mssmile6592 i appreciated this so much things have gotten alot better since then but also really worse today God showed me so eye opening signs and the last part you typed was another thank you thank you thank you for this I really appreciate this and I'm glad God helped you thank you!!😭❤
