    I’ve had many crisis of faith but my biggest was trusting my relationship to the Lord. I’ve been with my husband since I was a teenager and there have been many challenges. I use to always take situations into my own hand even being wrong and I hurt my relationship. When I gave my relationship to the Lord he allowed me to see the error of my ways and apologize and trust that God has my best interested. I trust God in the good and the bad and know he will turn everything for my good. Every-time I took things into my own hands it would lead to bad outcomes. When I do it his way there’s peace forgiveness and understanding. Your faithfulness in teaching the world has allowed me to truly understand the character of God and fully submit my relationship to him. God bless you and Gods word is enough!

    After I lost my baby and didn't get what I planned out for my life. My next plan was to try and have another baby right away! And God didn't allow any of my plans to work out it drove me to a deep spining and tiring type of frustration. Until finally I broke down at God's feet and told him to take everything and all my plans. I told him how angry I was, how disappointed I was at life and honestly at him that he let my baby die. How I was tempted not to belive in him anymore not to trust him because I saw a woman smoking cigarettes while pregnant and her baby is still alive but I was trying my best and my baby died so tragically and tramatically! God allowed me to cry out for hours and then hugged me and told me he wept too. But that he allowed this to happen for reasons I may not understand but that this was going to be moment of great faith and character building if I let it and didn't give up or try to force anything. So now I am just walking this path with my hand in His and i know blessing, restoration, recompense and miracles will be seen on my walk home.

    I remember when I went through a really tough time, feeling desperate feeling hopeless and when I kept praying but it still remained the same, I got angry at God. Looking back then, I believe that God put me in that situation to test my faith. Which I am so incredibly glad for, because after that, I made my final decision to truly make my Lord and Saviour Jesus as the ruler of my life.

    Thank you. A very helpful word. I think also that Jesus had compassion on this father as he had already left his son for quite a time in coming to see Jesus if he had come 20miles . Therefore he gave him the reassuring word that his son would live.

    Amen! Thank you so much God of Abraham, David etc..for this word, you knew I needed this today, and thank you pastor for being submissive to God and delivering this message. I broke down badly these last few days, and felt extremely disappointed, rejected and let down by God, because of something I have praying for, for sometime. This word not only restored my faith, but gave me greater wisdom. Thank you. 🙏🏾

    Thank you Pastor for throwing more light concerning faith, as at times one can feel guilty when you are accused about being weak in faith, for not pursuing a line of action regarding one s decision re a health issue

    Thank you for speaking on this “word of faith” way. I struggled for awhile with “not having enough faith to make it happen”. I realize now I was in churches that we’re interpreting scripture incorrectly.

    As hard as it might be to accept, faith is knowing God is in control and His will might not align with our hopes and desires, and we must accept it. It's about God, not about us.

    Yes when I lost my fetus baby a couple of months ago. I was shocked and dumbfounded. Bc I prayed for that baby and it happened so tramatically. During my grieving process which isn't fully over yet. I was extremely angry at everyone myself, my husband and a little at God but I didn't want to explore those feelings. I prayed and praised God in my darkest times in my most brokenness. And he gave me a glimpse of my joy back. And now that I have started to be joyful again I still had lingering questions and anger and Gof reminded me of the infamous job testimony and I was healed of my anger and confusion.

    It’s incredible how God use Pastor Paul. As he said in his prayer to those that are in moments of trials, after 11 months unemployed, searching for a new job, I’ve been having the time of my life. A time to read the bible, and understand God’s nature and faithfulness, and I have dig deeper than ever in this beautiful knowledge, with Pastor Paul preachings. Thank God for your life and ministry. God bless you! GRACIAS! Greetings from Mexico 🇲🇽😊

    This is so good. I’ve often, since re dedicating my life fully to God 2 years ago, gone into fervent prayer asking Jesus to show me His presence, help me feel Him…I’m really hoping for something obvious and dramatic..I mean I can get very dramatic, crying and sincerely seeking more of Him. When He doesn’t give me a “sign” I have a choice to make just like Pastor Paul says here, like the man in the book of John with the sick child. Am I going to give up and decide God doesn’t care or maybe even exist or am I going to keep seeking Him for Him and simply believing He is with me like He says? I choose the latter. By the way, He always shows me He is listening and He knows, even if it’s a response through a video I “happen” to come across on You Tube. 😅 Thank you Jesus. ❤

    Can satan only counterfeit if allowed too? He only has the power he was thrown out with, I don't believe for a second it was added too. And he can only do what Father God allows. satan does not have independent anything aside from Father God and he is subject just like us.
