Anyone in this chat that sees this, please pray for me. This showed up while I was scrolling and I knew it must be meant for me to listen to. I’m 41 and I have 2 little girls 7 and 9 years old with the man I thought I would spend the rest of my life with. We were supposed to be married this month and a few months ago he decided he wants to separate. We’ve been together for 14 years. And he’s so far away from GOD. He’s doing everything GOD is against. I’m leaving with nothing except my children. I need prayer more than ever. But my FAITH in GOD is has greater than ever. I’m giving it all to GOD. Please pray for my family especially my precious beautiful daughters. 🙏🙏🛐🛐
I have prayed for you and I just want to assure you that everything is going to be alright

God bless you and your family. My father had a hard time transitioning from orthodox to born again Christian, but if he hadn't endured and stood up for his faith and went through those trials in the 90s we would not havehadhim as an example. What you're doing now is for the better of future generations.
That's amazing brother! Praise God! 👏👏👏🙏🙏🙏

Please pray for my peace and comfort. I’m terribly shocked and I’m grieving. I lost my fiancé in a sudden car accident. I’m only 22. I have never been in so much pain. We were so sure planning our future. We love each other so much. He was so good and truly a Godly man. He was only 26.😢
I’m sending you hugs girl I’m so sorry. May God wrap his arms around you and hold you❤
So sorry for your loss!! I lost my husband over five years ago and I almost died of sadness but somehow just by praying and taking it day by day sometimes hour to hour has really made me come out of it!! God bless you and may his soul rest in peace!!
Sorry.
I’m sorry for your loss. I pray that you can overcome the grief and find joy again! I love you ❤️

Healing from a breakup with a guy I’m not supposed to be with. Super lonely and sad but I know God will get me through this season.
Focus on Jesus 😇
Me 2. I don't get it. I don't wanna feel anymore man he ain't worth it at all. I wish I didn't hurt so much.
Thank you for sharing.. I am in such heartache I dated a man that led me to believe that we were going to be together.. I woke up out of my sleep feeling like he was with someone else.. God blessed me with discernment and intuition.. when this happened trust it.. I chose to do differently and the treatment he gave me changed drastically…This man was never meant for me.. God has another plan for me.. I’ve been wrestling with this for a while now not sleeping and waking up in the middle of the night in tears… this sermon has aloud me to begin to let go…I feel lighter I’m lonely all the time but I will take this time to develop a stronger relationship with God and with myself..
Same dear i have been in a relationship which i exactly knew that it was against God's will 😢😢But i loved this guy sooo much until the holy spirit came to me in a dream and told me if i don't stop am gonna die 😢😢😢😢 i finally stop thru serious heart pain😢😢 i almost died still hurting tho God has gat me talking to me through pastors and scriptures. i will no longer fall in love without God's permission 😢😢😢
So am I. It is difficult because I thought we would grow old together. Through God I will overcome this pain. We can do this.
I tried to end my life and almost succeeded. I was on a respirator for 10 days. I wrestled with the enemy and then I saw Jesus on the cross with Mary at his feet. He reached for me and I took his hand. I was able to get off the respirator by his glory. He saved me for a purpose of what I am yet to know, but Jesus saved me and my life !Praise God for ever more 🙏
One purpose you can be sure of is that Jesus saved you to tell others your story. So many out in the world are throwing their lives away when they could experience the blessed and abundant life in Christ. You overcame through Christ, and others can too!
Praise God for his gift of life. You have everything to live for . His plan and purpose for you!❤
God bless sticking around for the best things to come ❤
My GOD!!! GLORY to God that you're still with us and the plan of the enemy did NOT work!!!!
What an Amazing testimony !!! BLESSED GOD!!! Give HIM GLORY!!!🙌🏾🙌🏾❤️❤️
My husband and I have fallen away from each other. We allowed the devil to come in and we both were battling different addictions. In December he moved out and we have separated. 20 years and now I do not know who I am. I’m holding on the Gods word that I am blessed and He will be my comfort and healer.
Praying for you! I'm in a similar situation right now and at a loss of what to do. It was meant for me to see this rerun of sermon and I always read comments.
I am praying for you. God IS able🙏🏽🙏🏽💙 Hang in there!
I’m in an abusive relationship, we have a son together . I recently found out he cheated on me, he’s put me through so much. It hurts so much because he doesn’t even care. I’ve been praying for God to give me the strength to leave him. I know he’s not good for me and I know I shouldn’t be with him. It’s like I’ve gotten used to the abuse that I started to think it was normal. Please pray for me and my son, pray that God will lead us to where we need to be. I love you all ❤
You have the courage. You have the support! It is now your time to start the process!
I am living proof God closes doors that cannot be reopened but always gives a way of escape opens doors that are clearly him, when your afraid just give it to him he will make it your strength before you know what even happened ❤ I am praying for you sweetie
I am 34 years old and have recently found God and have been saved and this past Sunday I got the blessing of being baptized! I love you GOD!
Jesus redeemer friend deliverer
Amen God Bless U welcome to the family ❤
Praise the Lord
Hallelujah
Welcome to the family of faith
I'm homeless and depressed but I know my redeemer lives and God will work it out in Jesus name Amen
God Bless You💪😇👍 Friend💞🪔
I was homeless and strung out on every poisonous drug known to mankind. I died for 25 years, because it sure wasn't living. I am writing a book about my life with the help of the Lord. If my story of being saved from that life and coming to know and commit my new life to the Lord helps even just one person, all the pain will have been worth it! We sometimes never know when we might be saving the life of another!
Keep on keepin on. Don't give up. 26 years ago God rescued me from homelessness, domestic violence and drugs. He sent messengers into my life faithfully, and healed me from it all. There is no secret what God can do. All I had to do is walk in faith. And praise Him.

PRAYING🙏🏻FOR YOU😇
God can and will turn it all around, get with the community outreaches and stick close to a church, God will restore! Blessings
The man that I was supposed to spend the rest of my life with, just decided to leave me. I'm in so much pain 😫 😩 😞. I really need people to stand with me in prayer because I really have to pick up the pieces of my life. I want to have peace and joy. I need God's healing
You are not alone❤
@@lifeofshanelle1230 thank you so much 💓
The same thing just happened to me lastnight, well early this morning at about 2am. I seen the reflection of the person he was cheating on me with in his glasses while we were on Facetime. After he realized he was busted he told me to just leave them the F alone. So I did , I changed my phone number and it felt great! Because after being humiliated over and over and the love not reciprical ever, and finally feeling like I am nothing and I never deserved to be loved back by him, he was right. I dont deserve him. I finally said "ENOUGH IS ENOUGH" It took 6 long years of this torture I thought was love to finally see that I am worthy of so much more than what he was given which was nothing. Even in love making I was never pleased and I made sure he was. I feel so stupid and hurt and confused as to why he wouldnt love me. But with Gods grace something in my head told me that it wasnt me. There was nothing wrong with me, it was him all along doing what I think was his way to control me by hurting me and giving me just enough love to be able to tell myself that one day he would love me enough to marry me, 6 long years later and still he wont move in with me, I cannot spend time with or even see his kids anymore that he once let me get close to just to take them away to hurt me, him telling all these other random females that were not together and that im just crazy. But God gave me the wisdom to finally see the whole picture. Im sure it will take a while to heal, I dont know if I will ever trust men again. But today is the first day that the healing process begins for me. Sorry about such a long post, I pray that me writing my story helps you heal somewhat just as typing it out for the first time was very much a healing point of a sort for me. It felt awesome and if u want to write out all of your story I will listen without judgement. You are in my prayers my sister in Jesus Christ. I havent met you but I would bet that your a beautiful person inside and out because our types are the ones that get hurt the most. So know that this man is not worthy of the love you have to offer and I will guarantee to you that he will one day regret greatfully the way he treated you and he absolutely will feel your absense as nobody will ever be you with all your beautiful uniqueness! God Bless and I hope this lifts you up a little bit at least!!!
Yes I'm Blessed 🎉
I know exactly how this feels......I was also recently left by my bf of 10 years....we were to officiate everything....we were even living together.....during the relationship he always convinced me that we were not ready to have a baby because of finances....and because we needed to live life and enjoy it before starting a family.....he recently left me for a woman older than him with 5yrs and has only dated her for 4 months and wants to have a baby with her and settle with her......he says that he he feels that he will do life better with her than me.....I am so devastated.....before he left me....we were okay and happy and he just flipped everything up.....😢....where do I begin to pick up the pieces I feel lost.....hopeless of ever finding love again.....I still love him and want him to come back.....but he doesn't want me
Whoever read this comment, Know that Jesus will come soon and He will never leave you behind if you believe and put your trust in Him alone. know that you are loved by Him, you are precious in his eyes.
I am currently struggling with my faith and I want to get to know God more. Please pray for me.

I was about to die from an overdose in my apartment in Miami all alone after so many different drugs…I went to grab my phone and I couldn’t even see what I pressed and out of no where RUclips started and this song played. My heart was beating out of my chest and then the room turned white and I felt at peace. My heart slowed down and I survived. Jesus Christ is real people. He saved my life.
Amen Amen!
He is absolutely real...no doubt...
I survived leukemia. I'm blessed 🙌 but I lost my parents and my kids and now I'm lost. Year after year I keep going. Idk where but
... I'm blessed
I am at a crossroads in my life. Every aspect; health, financial, career, family, romantic but through the ups and downs I know God got me

Currently going through a divorce.. and I'm just lost. I don't know who I am anymore. I lost myself somewhere along the way in this marriage. I'm trying to rediscover myself. May God heal me from the trauma of abuse, may He help me recover my confidence and self esteem. 🙏🏽
Dear Abba I come before you to pray for my sibling in faith. Abba please restore her mind and spirit. The abuse of a spouse is so painful and causes so much damage and I ask that you restore her mind, heart, and spirit to be stronger and more like you then before it was damaged. The abuse that comes from the person who is suppose to be there for you for the rest of your life is so painful and preverts the image that you created for marriage. I thank you that you gave Lilly the ability to know when to remove herself and the strength to do so bc leaving someone is never easy and I thank you for her strength and wisdom. Please Abba shoe Lilly your with her, guide her steps amd her thoughts to aline to your perfect will. I ask these things in the perfect name of messiah. Amen.
You didn’t lose yourself you became 1 with your husband so both of your lives intertwined. Now you’re trying to unravel that life and that’s why you feel the way you do. Keep trusting God and trusting the process amen 🙏🏾.
We're praying for you
Take it easy, my Pastor is going through it. You can see that it shook his core. I'm praying for both of you
God is with you and for you. Remember that no matter what you are going through.
Yes HE will. Praying for you!

Hello from the Netherlands. I am a South African living here, far away from home, family and friends. My recent battles have been immense, as I took on the battles of misconduct and false integrity in a big business firm. The fear of such a big battle has left me paralysed with fear. I have been having anxiety attacks, night terrors, and battled to keep my mind clear, fearing the worst, fearing for my life. Pray for me to have peace, knowing that God fights my battles, and sees what has been done in the darkness. Please pray for protection over my life, and my family, that this will bring redemption to us, and bring us all back together before God the Father. Thank you for allowing me to stand alone in my home tonight, feeling an immense peace over my life, knowing that God is the CEO of all businesses, He chose me before the foundation of this earth, and calls me into life with the blood of Jesus Chris. AMEN for perfect praise! Blessing to you Steven and Elevation church.
THE PAIN IS DEEP BUT GOD IS THE HEALER
I am from Middle East I converted my religion. When my family learned they beat me, took my phone, laptop, bible etc. And locked me in a room for 1.5 years! I was just a 9 months old believer. When I was sitting in the room I prayed and said I don't have my Bible, my believer friends etc. how can I continue my faith? And I heard Holy spirit said I can come in this room! And he came he was with me all the time while I was in there. When I heard this song I felt someone who doesn't know my testimony made a song for me 😍 Yes he is in the room and he'll be in the room and we can't survive without him.
U have so much strength an faith..God bless U ..
Amen
You have a great God! He fights for his own!
Im a fresh graduate, and im in a stress that I've never been . Everything about life and my future is stressing me .
But I will definitely read back this comment after 3 years and bless the Lord for all the blessings that he gave me .
I'm watching from Mobile, AL. The Spirit of the Lord fell upon me in my bedroom 🙌🏾🙌🏾🙌🏾. My (16) year old daughter left home to live with her father. The way it was done is what caused me great grief, today.... February 3, 2024 marks the fourth month since she's been gone. I've pondered many days and nights as to where I went wrong. Please pray for us and may God continue to strengthen and undergird you in ALL that you do, in Jesus name....Amen🙏🏾🙏🏾🙏🏾
This is one of the best sermons Pastor Furtick has ever preached! Exactly what I needed to hear as I am awaiting Medical School responses... God works in amazing ways.

I am in a very difficult relationship myself but have given it to God and I am at peace to leave or stay if God wills it... all I need is for God to be clear in what He wants me do .... because nothing should stand I the way of saving God. .. otherwise if I will see God s glory in the challenges , let's endure for victory is assured and God is a God of seasons, nothing lasts, especially challenges ...
You must fast and pray for your marriage and you will see Gods miracle, God did it for me and he can do it for you too
This song is SO TIMELY for my family and I! My 13 year old sister has cancer, and Sunday I had gotten a call from my parents asking to gather all of my siblings to come and say our goodbyes… We prayed, we asked for a miracle, and here we are 5 days later and my sister has made a MIRACULOUS recovery and doctors are in AWE!
I'd have to hunt & peck so many miracles to even begin what our God has done in my life. But I had NSCL lung cancer about 13 or 14 months ago. The scripture the Lord gave me is I will live and not die and declare the works of the Lord in Psalms 118:7. They couldn't perform surgery because there wouldn't have been any quality of life. It took up 22CCs of my 24 CCs of breathing room. So I had 1 chemo & radiation treatment and it was gone. Except for being tired there was no other side effects. Thanks for sharing your sister & family's blessing as well..
What God can not do doesn’t exist at all okay, she is totally healed and blessed & will live to glory of God in Jesus Christ name amen. The devil is a liar in any area of our lives
I love this!! Hallelujah!!!
Hallelujah!
🙏 amen thank you lord, for you are a merciful God,
🙏🏽trust in GOD . For if you hurt, He hurts.. FAITH!!!!
this sermon brought me to tears. this past month i’ve had medical fears that i’ve prayed against and have truly felt that God has delivered me from, but recently i can’t shake the feeling that i’m still not well. i’ve had symptoms and so much anxiety that this illness is still present and going to creep up on me. i’m not going to lie and say i’m not nervous still, but i understand i have to let go and let God take care of me. i ask that whoever reads this also prays for me, my physical and mental wellness, that i’m able to trust and lean on my support system, and that worry no longer exists in or around me. thank you to whoever makes this prayer!! and thank you to God always ❤
My therapist says you reframing things as “yes, and” is helpful to understand that two things can be true at once. “I’m blessed and I’m going through a hard time”
Watching from Kenya That sermon was all I needed today. May God bless you !

Similar situation with my daughter’s father after 20 years of just being a gf. He has accused me of sexual sin when I became celibate last year after his continued verbal assaults. Found condoms in his room at a house he is staying at. God will comfort the broken hearted.
Going through a break up after moving from Africa to Europe with my girlfriend of 3years I love this woman even though I've made mistakes in the past but I know God is great and he will help us get through this. Please pray for us.

IM KLAY KITHENS MAKING JESUS THE LORD OF MY LIFE-SOMEBODY PRAY FOR ME! I PROFESS JESUS CHRIST AND BOW DOWN TO HIM-YES IM BLESSED!❤
I surrender all my thoughts to you God. My mind is sanctified , and fear is destroyed. amen.
I’ve been a follower of Jesus my whole life but there have been times I’ve slipped away. I had watched my dad pass away from cancer infront of my very eyes and for the last 2.5 years I’ve been so angry at god. I never understood that expression until it happened to me. My life was in shambles. Homeless, hotel hopping, couch hopping, got into drinking and drug use amongst my other wrong doings.. it’s been about a month since I have been consistently praying and talking to god. Not focusing on myself but praising god for waking my family up and their health being under control, I pray for my boyfriend who is a non believer to find god.. just one month. The amount of blessings that I have experienced is tremendous. I could cry. Things have been so bad, could be worse but I really don’t know what could be worse than not having god in my life. The worst 2.5 years of my life and I have gone thru plenty of bad as a believer before. Thank you Holy Spirit 🙏 if I can ask for any prayers it would be for my boyfriend to walk with god on earth and in the kingdom of Heaven. 🙏 amen and thank you!
I needed this at exactly the moment I found it. Thank you Pastor Steven.
❤
As long as God walks with us beside us we will never be alone. As so as you believe in this you won't hurt as much when someone walk out your life.
The presence of the blessing does not mean the absence of pressure. - love this 🙏
So true
The presence of the blessing doesn’t mean the absence of pressure. Hallelujah to Jesus!
Amen!! 🙏🏼 🙏🏼🙏🏼
Please pray for my children and I, we’ve been fighting along battle for many years. Please pray that my children and I reunite very soon🙏🏻🙏🏻
It is enough for me, I feel useless, I have lost my family, I am broke, I have no idea what is going to happen with me, Any people, whosever read this, just pray for me, I feel the best way to stop this pain and this useless life that I am living is closing my eyes and never never never open them again. I just needed someone to talk, but at this point no friends, no family, no hope.
I will pray for u i was in the same place
I pray you are OK and God is holding you
Pastor Steven, I always benefit from your sermons. This sermon, however, is so uncomfortable and hit me so intensely that I know I am one, hopefully of many, to whom Father God is speaking directly and intentionally. As is typical, I shall watch it several times. I pray I am able to work through the difficult emotions it triggers and glean all that God intends for me. Thank you for your faithful obedience! Glory to God!!
❤
Literally same…. I’m not even a fifth of the way through the sermon, and I want to click out of it because I know it’s going to bring up so many emotions. But “[…] I will fear no evil for You are with me.” So, I’m listening to it even though I’m genuinely terrified of facing the emotions I tuck away behind an iron vault. Bless the Lord, as He is my strength. And bless Steven Furtik for all of his work.
I know you’ll be able to work through these emotions. We are in the Hands of the Lord & we will overcome. Stay committed. Keep faith. Let’s live in gratitude together. One cannot experience fear and gratitude at the same time
@seek_to_understand_ Thank you so much for your kind words of encouragement and wisdom.
Gleaning once I know what it means
I went through it to get to it. It was traumatic but the Lord fought for me and got me through! Hallelujah
Amen! Me also.🙌🙌🙌🙌🙌
I wanna let him control my life and my business most of all I want the Kingdom of God is all I want 😢.....
I have been suffering with severe anxiety the past few weeks. Can’t eat, barely sleep, constant chest pain. It is miserable. But I wake up every morning and go in my prayer closet and give it all to God. I know he will deliver me from this. ❤
Lord I ask for your healing over my body with these seizures! This journey isn’t easy but you are on my side and I know you are with me.
The Lord will heal you soon.
We are joining alongside you in prayer!
My father passed away this year on January 12. And got a divorce this year. Not having my dad to call and chat with him and get his wisdom advice is challenging but I do know his spirit is with me and protecting
and guiding me through prayer. I’ve been healing from the abuse and trauma in the marriage but God has a better plan for me. I love this sermon. It’s so real❤❤❤❤❤❤❤
Save me from myself my Lord 🙏🏽
🙏🏽 in JESUS' H❤️🔥LY name Amen
❤
This happened to me one time. I fought a person. He looked like Jesus, but started chocking me. I called on the names of Jesus Christ to help me. Fear came upon me. God delivered me, not sure how long , I fought with him. I never told anyone about it. That I can remember.
Me and my boyfriend just broke up, I loved him so much but he broke up. Am depressed at the moment. Please pray for me to get through this.
God shall do it for you dear one..am going through the same situation...God please intervene 😢😢😢 please God

My son and daughter in law are having marital problems.
Anne-Marie, the daughter in law is nice and loving for a month , and all of sudden, she becomes bitter and hatred fir a few months. This is painful and heartbreaking. Please pray for Chris and Anne-Marie as they have a daughter.
Nothing is impossible for God.
God bless! Love to you all! ❤️
after so long being away and denying the blessing of Christ in my life, i am trying to get back into the fold of God, and this message helps me to realise that i can't control how i will serve God and i can't control my life to be "perfect" Christian. i just need to let go and surrender myself to our Heavenly Father and His Son, Jesus Christ. i am ready to let go. i am ready to know that i am blessed, but. i am ready to count my blessings and also not be phased by my current adversities. i am ready to receive the bessings of letting go. Thank You, Jesus.
I watched 4 times today. I needed this to move forward over a 15 yr relationship that has held me captive.
This video keeps constantly coming on my recommendations. I know it is God speaking to me as im here crying at 2 am like i have been every night for the past months after i put my girls to bed so they dont see me crying. One day i pray ill come back to this video and say how God blessed me
And you will come through this and jesus name
I want Christ to lead me in Jesus name Amen

I need prayer, I feel like I’m losing in every direction. I am trying to stay faithful but I feel like I’m not hearing God’s voice over the deceiving voice of the devil. I know I’m not as bad off as I could be but the voice I’m hearing is trying to show me how much I’m failing

Give yourself grace ... It's not the end, there's always a second chance... Maybe thr guilt is what will destroy the relationship forgive your boyfriend and if it's God's will for you guys to be together God will make it beautiful beautiful
The bible is full of imperfect people and situations and i thank God for that because i am imperfect and make mistakes every day. BUT GOD will make all things good and that new life you are about to bring into the world is a beautiful blessing from God. Place your life into His hands and in time you will see whatever has happened or will happen God means for good. I know it feels so hard and lonely at this time but God is with you and my prayers are for you.
