"A Faith That Doesn't Hold on to Hurt" with Pastor Rick Warren
HTML-код
- Опубликовано: 30 авг 2020
- It can be difficult to let go of bitterness, especially when we’ve been deeply hurt by someone. But bitterness is costly - it’s like drinking poison and hoping it will hurt the other person. In this message, Pastor Rick Warren continues our study through the Book of James by pointing out seven very expensive costs to holding on to hurt.

Pastor Warren makes it sound so easy. I'm trying. I can't do it on my own. With my flesh I can do non of this. God help me. I wish I can just hear a pastor''s sermon & read God's words and change, instead I am struggling day in and day out and it makes me want to just end it all. I can't take it anymore. I don't go online nor watch news. I have no problem with that. Instead my hurt is familial. I live in an abusive home. I am driven to near insanity. I just can't take it anymore. God help me. Lord have mercy on me. Show me a way out. Give me freedom from my family.
Thank you from reminding me to not hating myself and also someone else. And also nails the hate to the cross with jesus. Thank you pastor Rick.
I work for a guy who treated me badly when I’m happy, but kept healthy boundaries & respect when I start getting angry & brooding, ie working condition is better after I express my anger. I need the money & not easy to find another job at my age.
I wish it’s safe to be happy here.
To all reading & visiting this channel..MAY YOU STAY BLESSED.
blessed and grateful for you pastor Rick and your messages especially this one
Thank you so much Pastor Rick.
A friend posted this sermon on FB and it was a message that I needed to hear. I listened last night and also decided to take a social media fast and delve into your teachings and strengthen my walk with God. I just discovered today through listening to another one of your sermons that you wrote the book "The Purpose Driven Life." I was introduced to that book by a colleague of mine in 2005. I know that this is not a coincidence and I look forward to 60 days or more of fasting and learning. Thank you
Amen

Sometimes people take advantage of your forgiveness, they keep doing bad things to you because you are easily to forgive...

I love this teaching -biblical truth and timeless truth.
Thank you God for Pastor Rick. I’ve been harboring a big hurt for almost a year. So many days, I stuffed it down. So many days, it reached back up and strangled me, taking my joy. It’s been like that this week. Praise God for this sermon and for the message of hope and healing. God bless and stay well all.

Thank,s
Very timely. I had to empty my storage unit with my husband...it brought so many painful memories back, all the way to kindergarten. I have so many health problems from the stress and heartbreak of people being mean or unfair to me. Jedus I pray you will help me forgive today.
I try to let it go, but I have a hard time sometimes
Thanks Pastor Rick . 😇
Anytime I don't forgive others, the father will not forgive me, it is worth it to let that person off the hook. It doesn't mean let the per s on walk over you.
Thank you Pastor Rick, you have been a blessing these past weeks in helping me with my spiritual growth.
May God bless you and your Ministry.

My God! ..... Such a worldwide ministry! Blessing from USA! .... 💚💦💚

Thank you Rick!
The problem when you won't let go of bitterness (the sin you commit when you hold on to anger) is that you are putting yourself in God's place as judge and the One who can heal any hurt and its consequences. He even can use any hurt you might have experienced into something beautiful and more valuable than the energy you wasted hating and vociferating against other people. You can't handle God's role as a judge, it's too heavy for us human. That's why we need a God and a Savior, we're barely able to handle all the troubles we're experiencing on a daily basis. Let go, stop compromising yourself and sin by letting the sun going down while you're still angry and bitter and by cursing other human beings, God "makes his sun to rise on the evil and the good, and sends rain on the just and the unjust." (Mathew 5 :45) anyway. Give your hurt to God and let Him handle the matter. He'll handle it way much more better than you will ever be able to.
Wow everything that is all facts, thanks you for given this wonderful communions to us, you’re helping a lot of people answering questions like this, thanks you again👍🏼
I feel like I've been trying, but why do I still feel hurt? I keep wanting to forgive, confessing forgiveness, but I still just feel so let down and disappointed by this person. I feel so foolish that I ever thought there could be more, that they were as committed and dedicated and devoted as me. In the name of Jesus, I loved them so patiently and forgivingly and gave them so many chances even when I wasn't confident they'd really rise up. I tried to love them like Jesus, and in so many ways I just feel a fool. Like a stupid idiot for have tried so hard. I feel so embarrassed about how much I loved them in comparison to how they loved me. I know they tried the best they could in the midst of crazy overwhelming life circumstances, and that's part of why I was devoted to sticking by them through their tough times no matter what. Hoping and believing it'd get better for us both. But they just gave up. They gave up, and ended up going back to the abusive mother of their child so quickly and it's been devestating. I know it's not bc they didn't love me, or are rejecting me, but to sacrifice their life and protect their baby. To do the best they can to keep their son safe, and the mother of their son well and stable/not manipulative or evil in how she handles him. He told me he saw a loving, beautiful future with me. So much true love and hope. But that his life isn't about him anymore, but his kid. And even though he knows he's going back to abuse, to less than we ever shared, he's willing to to give his son the best chance he can have. And even though in MY eyes the mom doesn't deserve it, give her the best chance he can so his son has the best chance of a good and healthy mom as possible. It's just so sad and devestating. I don't feel like I really understand all of God's purposes in it. It's like we both experienced true, Godly love with one another for the first time. Had great hope given to us, and then it just couldn't work out, bc of the consequences of his past sins. And the mutual feeling of him not being a good boyfriend to me bc of his stress, and him not wanting to hold me back from life. And me feeling the same way in some ways... but hoping if I loved hard enough and sacrificed enough that I could make it work. That one day it'd be peaceful and fulfilling again.... It was close to a year of my life spent with this man. Trying, trying, and trying so hard. I just feel worn out and empty now. Like the abusive mother of his child gets the last laught, the man I loved is stuck in depression and misery he won't admit for the sake of his son's well-being, and I was just left alone... I don't want to villify him to move on. It's been months and I'm still hurting. I just want to feel better. To be at peace with things, thankful to God for how it all happened, despite the pain I've felt, and keep stepping forward. I'm trying so hard. Please pray for me if you would, sister. And thank you for this good rebuke. It does comfort me
Thank you for the message...To God be the glory.

Thank you Pastor Rick. Watched from England.
Thank you! Pastor Rick" i am listening every time too..some How Gods working in me..too))
Thank you Pastor Rick and your Team!!! I wait for this message every week, I am a venezuelan living in Quito, Ecuador.
We have every right to be outraged and verbal about the evil being perpetrated. We don't judge these people as individuals and claim to know their fate. But we should not be silent against injustice and call it out. I don't like hearing sermons that imply we should never be upset or angry with people who blatantly hurt others, especially those using the name of Jesus as their weapon to inflict injury.
It doesn't tell you not to be angry and offended, it tells you to be angry but not sin by holding on hurt and feeding up your anger. (Ephesians 4:26)
I need to recover my faith in God.
What translation of the Bible are you using? I trying to follow the series using KJV, but I'd rather follow using your chosen translation. It's easier to follow, understand, and remember.
Pastor Rick, I love your videos. Thank you for your love and dedication to teaching God's word and making it understandable to everyone.
dre5rebel1 New International Version
Its not the NIV, it is something like the Living Bible or the New Living Bible, Im trying to figure it out also, i remember him saying it once, it has the word living in it, i remember that much.
maybe "The Message"
I loved this and shared it with my daughter who I was just telling about your sermons. Thank you for the amazing work you do for God!! My youngest daughter Toni was killed (at the age of 24) by a hit and run driver almost 7 years ago. I've given it to God but still get angry and ask God to" get them" for me and our family. I really don't wish anyone harm ever but I still haven't been able to really let it go.
Thank you pastor Rick . You are such of good got reach you renew my faith and unload my pain . !!!
Teach me Lord!
Thank you very much Pastor Rick! This episode really helped me a lot to Nail the hurt and bitterness in the Cross. God bless you more and more. I’m ready to start a new life with better and deeper relationship with God 🙏🙏🙏
What about people who have deliberately hurt you. Not the kind of hurt that is unintentional, the hurt that is meant for personal gain and intentional destruction of another person? How on Earth can you let that go?
Thank you pastor rick.this is beautiful
Amazing! I needed this ❤️
Thank God and Lord Jesus. Let Rick Pastor giving this message as my heart was broken last night.

thank you very much for your sermon .....
Amen 🙏🏼
O Lord PASTOR, How do i let go?
What a comparison about resentment. 'It's like you drinking poison and hoping they will be hurt.'
I sit corrected. For the first couple weeks i wasn’t sure you were actually there. Then the camera settings changed and that helped convince me, then the twig/branch moving in the wind and the cars passing by in the same shot really helped almost totally convince me. But there’s the money shot! Beautiful farm btw. Can see the tree where you’ve been recording next to this whole time. Really cool. Also you’re preaching has been phenomenal 98%-99% of the time or it’s been off 1%-2% of the time in my well seasoned opinion. You’re attitude each week comparable to the environment based on what’s going on is the most notable thing I, and i imagine, other people, notice. The world keeps setting ‘em up, you keep knockin’ ‘em down [(bowling pins) - (In case any non English speakers were unsure of the analogy)]
Keep on
Think I’ve become dependent on these. 😂 Been catching your messages weekly as they come out since March. Man. . . THOSE were some dark times. Like, yeah, it’s hard, especially in some areas now, but still, the overall fear level worldwide has subsided overall, which really impacts everything else. Don’t give into fear! Fear not! (Which is the most popular phrase in the Bible, as I’m pretty sure I learned from Pastor Rick) Great job sir! Keep it up! You’re doing awesome/awe-inspiring work! *applause from the crowd* Yayyy Rick! You got this! Zero problems, and if any arise, just adjust and continue. Idk, just felt like encouraging you for a change since the shoes been on the other foot for 18?+ weeks. A while. Been on the other foot for a while. And mine is only a few short platitudes, BUT STILL! Haha - Take heart. (If needed) Much love from Oklahoma.
Can someone on the team show him these 2 or print ‘em off or whatever in case he doesn’t read em on his own? Just wanted to make sure he got a chance to read ‘em. I don’t want a response, just the aforementioned request. Thanks!
WOW WHAT AMAZING SERMON
Wow Pastor Rick , you enlighten my mind and you guide me exactly what to do . God bless you Pastor. More power to you.

I've always wondered how can I forgive a person whom I love with all my heart but that's always hurting me., . My husband 😞 it doesn't happen during the during the week because he's at work but on the weekends sometimes it's so difficult to live with him 😖 and he holds on forgiveness at me and doesn't let grudges go. So the question is this: how to forgive over and over again without holding grudge, bitterness and resentment? He's not going to change, I must change with God's help, but how?
I am so sorry to hear how the person who is called to love you as himself fails so often. He is dumping his pain on you from his wounds. Then you have your own wounds. Is is possible that you have a mindset that filters out the small connections he tries to make and just focuses on keeping a list of how he fails you? As long as you are safe physically, I would encourage you to connect with a bible believing church and an Christ-following older woman or Christian counselor. Here are the 4 foundational aspects to marriage:
communication, setting goals together, fun and intimacy. Perhaps one or more of these need prayer. Jesus is able to heal and give grace. After all he created marriage.
@@careyj4471 thank you!!! God bless you in the name of Jesus Christ, and you're right maybe sometimes due to tiredness I'm just focusing on his failures... When reading my Bible it's a little difficult because I don't know which are the verses I should read in that particular situation! Right now I can't attend church, besides the pandemic, he's not a believer 😟 but I can seek for counseling thanks for taking your time to answer 💐
wondering the same. how do I kno the difference between boundaries with toxic people and forgiveness. someone who almost fills me up with hurt everyday.
@@jentavake9334 Exactly! Or in my case, conditioned from the time I was born to absorb pain. I love your wording, "fills me up with hurt." That describes it perfectly. The very people who were supposed to give me a loving foundation and trust in the world instead made me feel suspicious and angry and worthless. We're talking 56 years of it. It's so much a part of me now that I'm not even aware of how much of my mind is polluted by it. It feels like it's in my DNA at this point. I know God is powerful enough to heal that kind of hurt but I don't know how to go about tapping into that power of His. It's hard to let go of resentment that you aren't even aware of.
@@jentavake9334 Christ calls us to love, not to be victimized. God does not require you expose yourself to toxic people. Forgive them and move on. Unless you're bound to them in a household and can't get out move on. Working on a job is similar. You're not required to endure abuse of any kind: mental, emotional, physical or spiritual. Forgiveness comes with time, prayer and filling those hurt places up with the word of God and surrounding your self with positive and uplifting people. I'll be praying for you.
I loved the sermon! But my soul clenched when you dropped the Bible like that, so please don’t!!! All my love to you.
Amazing message and so timely. Please tell us where we can gst a copy of whatever translation Bible you use, I have a lot of trouble finding this particular translation
What translation is this the Pastor Rick is reading from? does anybody know?
So how do you let go of the deep hurt that literally EVERYONE inflicts on you? When you're different than most people it's rare to find people who are kind and understanding. When people are mean and spiteful most of the time your subconscious has a hard time trusting and letting go. "You're as happy as you choose to be" is a crock! Tell that to the starving mother who can't feed her children or the orphan who has known nothing but abuse all of his life. It's easy for people who have had loving role models in their lives to spout nonsense like that because they haven't walked a mile in the shoes of a tortured soul.
where is this location its very nice
🙏🏽🙏🏽🙏🏽💕💕💕👍🏽👍🏽👍🏽
This doesn’t work if someone is hurting/abusing you or your children right now. Sure if it’s over or in the past. This sermon makes real victims re-victimized for having legitimate emotions
Pastor rick, i found you on a video today on suicide ive read your book a purpose driven life, but i am struggling with depression and suicide maybe this isnt the best place to ask for help or maybe it is but i need help. i wonder if it wasnt a coincidence that i found your channel on RUclips.
Dear Sam,
God loves you and we love you. We’re so sorry you are struggling, but please know: you’re not alone . . . you are needed . . . there is hope . . . and there is always help. If you are struggling with suicidal thoughts, please call the National Suicide Prevention Lifeline at 800-273-8255, talk with your doctor, or go to the nearest emergency room. If you would like to pray with someone, please call the Minister of the Day through Saddleback Church’s main line at 949-609-8000.
Kay Warren also has resources on her website for mental health, including depression, which can be found here: kaywarren.com/depression/.
We’re praying for you. -Pastor Rick's Daily Hope Team
@@DailyHopeRickWarren Thanks so much
hi maria shie and jen. nice
I feel like this is blaming the victim of the hurt. Why do we call the hurt and bitter that they are ungrateful and going away from God and that nobody wants to be with them. Instead we should name it as it is that those who hurt are those who are away from God and those are the ones nobody wants to be with, those are the ones without God in their life and they don't do anything to reverse the hurt so they aren't going to be forgiven. If we name the things as they truly are and we acknowledge that yes we were hurt because the other person are evil, then we can feel better. Telling victims that they are unlikeable or not worth of God's love because they feel the consequences of other person's sinful action isn't very kind.
