I had something similar happen this morning. Thank you Lord for your presence even when I'm not feeling you
I suffered from infertility tried for so many years to get pregnant. I always prayed to god to please bless me with a child. I was watching a mother play with her son on tik tok one day I cried and screamed to God "God please give me a child!!!!!" that same day something in me told me to take a pregnancy test... it came back positive! I couldnt believe it I was in tears and in shock!I took more pregnancy tests and they all came back positive! A week after I found out I was pregnant I found a cross necklace a few steps away from where I worked at and I then knew it was really God all along and never left my side. I now have a 11 month healthy beautiful baby boy. He's turning 1 in a few days! ❤ God is good!💜Amen🙏🏾

I absolutely LOVE seeing him and his wife interact. Him and his family as well. He doesn’t seem to be trying to present anything that they are not, he’s honest. And the fact that he shows and talks about the things we all struggle with and his awareness of it makes me feel safe to trust him as a speaker of God but I know he’s still just a man. This makes this sermon perfect coming from him. God bless me with a loving family of my own that is customized just for me.

Listening on the semi delivering loads. Rededicated my life the other night and need prayers for God to touch my fiance's heart. I was saved in jail at 17. It was the first time I heard God speak to me. The Devil hits hard though and I became distracted the past decade. Every time I tried to get back focused on God the distractions came. Pray for me and my family. I'm not allowing the devil to knock me off course this time. My testimony is powerful and I know my purpose. Blessings to all of my brothers and sisters in Christ.

Been listening to him for about 3 hours today. It’s incredible
It's crazy. I was watching some of the videos against you, and praying for guidance. I realized in the videos they tried to speak against you in, I agreed with you on. Then it hit me... one preacher continues to preach messages that I have seen God in, and these others are trying to preach against you. Some sermon when its about what another man is doing wrong. Then it didnt sit right when they asked people not to watch you. I felt God say "God's not afraid to let you speak with the devil, but the devil is terrified to let you speak to God." And then I decide to turn on one of your sermons instead of their videos, and this is the first one that pops up for me to watch. I dont expect perfection out of my preacher. You're just a messenger. I get my perfection from God. I dont get my relationship with God from you. I have my own relationship and my own conversations with Him. And this message is from Him. Let the haters hate.

God bless you 🙏🏽 I've loved pastor Steven & Holly when I 1st saw them! God speaks thru people to reach us & I love that we all give God the Glory for choosing his messengers in his perfect form to relate to us. Praise God! I don't discriminate against other preachers cuz I believe they all have their own special unique ways of delivering the Word.. BUT GOD IS OUR PROTECTOR & NO WEAPON FORMED AGAINST US SHALL PROSPER! If preachers or speakers are so threatened by pastor Steven delivering the Word then that's their own personal issue they have to work thru. Not to bash another pastor to move him out of their way! God blocks every evil that goes against his Sons & Daughters. God bless you Pastor Steven & your church family. Thank you Jesus 🙏🏽 💕

God has used this blessed preacher to preach to me several times. His style may not be what many find likeable of a typical pastor. All I know is this man is a genuine man of God trying to do his best for the lord. These others, I agree with you, are just finding faults from others instead of edifying other believers. Being the know-it-alls that none of us are. Really needs a heart check.

I am a Christian coming back to Christ through his conviction. I left my God so long ago and was focused on living my life based off of the world. I’ve been so anxious and depressed and decided it was time for me to reestablish a relationship with God. The first night of my reconnection, I started out in Genesis. This was about 2 days ago. I was thinking it might be wrong for me to start in this book and was focused on finding Bible verses that fit my situation. I was lead to this video through God. He knew I needed to hear it. Move in what your made for. I was empty. And anxious. And depressed. And prideful that I could solve my problems through worldly solutions. This is exactly the video I needed. God showed me this video for a reason. I had absolute chills as this sermon completely described what I was going through. AFTER READING GENESIS. I prayed while watching and was brought to tears, because during this sermon my heart felt full and my mind felt clear. I CAN DO ALL THINGS THROUGH GOD WHO GIVES ME STRENGTH. I can lay down my pride and humble myself. I can admit I can’t do this alone. This sermon sealed my decision in coming back to Christ. I will be watching your videos OFTEN.
“How do i know what I’m made for? I spend time with my maker” 52:30
I listen to this 4 times..that’s how amazing it was. God Bless our anointed pastors and preachers and teachers who really make theBible come alive!!!

Watching from a tiny farm outside of White River, Mpumalanga South Africa. Been unemployed for two years. Lost my business, have been bankrupt and in massive debt, my relationship with the love of my life crashed, and I am still standing after many, many "storms" because of God and his goodness. Loving your ministries. I get quite lonely out here and am blessed and inspired when I have enough data to watch your sermons. Thank you so much. God's grace is so amazing. Currently broke but not broken. I know breakthrough is imminent. Your teachings inspire me, encourage me and refresh my hope in God's plans for me. Amazing that as I typed about my relationship, words fell out of your mouth about a relationship being in pieces on the floor, and inner troubles, I know this message is for me and am listening intently. I am blessed to be alive.
Excellent message Steven. From South Africa
That was such an powerful and eye opening message! I won't forget it. I never felt worthy of God because of my sins and insecurities but He is working in my life the past two years and i trust Him and will never let go. Thank you for this message. It blessed me!

I don't know if I needed to hear this sermon at this exact point in time but it was emotional. It felt like what I had prayed to receive from it (in relation to my life) erupted within & out of me and was laid bare to my face. Very powerful.

The biggest thing God showed me was that when he creates us. The first thing he creates is your heart! And being on a path of knowing more about our hearts that he has shown me. It’s so powerful because our hearts our so powerful yet we barely scratch the surface. And it’s so cool to know that in the womb your heart is made first. And what’s even cooler is that our hearts have veins and all these feelings around it. The Lord showed me how powerful Jesus’s words are about guar your hearts and it’s awesome to know that God our Father holds our hearts, literally in his hands you just can’t see it. Stay blessed everyone and God bless.

When he talks about taking in all this nonstop information and all the goings on of the world and how we weren't made to take in that much information all day every day, one of the best decisions I've ever made {other than anything pertaining to God, Jesus and the Holy Spirit} was to cut ALL forms of news out of my life completely about 10+ years ago and as of the last 5 and a half years, I, stopped scrolling through Facebook. I have no other forms of social media because after Facebook I wanted nothing to do with ANY other forms of it, not Twitter, no Instagram, no snap chat, no tik tok, no anything. It has been so, much more peaceful in my everyday life. Even through the virus, no news at all. I won't even read headlines while standing in line at a gas station. When the riots happened last year, you can imagine my chagrin when I was trying to get home and all, the exits off the highway were messed up and all the roads were blocked. I had absolutely no idea what was going on haha. Asked an officer I saw near my house, heard people were looting stores and that was it. Still never watched on the news. Had no idea why either lol. STILL don't watch it AT ALL. This technology has its advantages, like watching all kinds of churches online, but it is MAINLY designed to make as many of us as possible waste as much of our lives as possible so that we never fulfill the purpose God has for us. The people running the world, AKA the Bilderberg Group, they want God removed from everything, schools, government buildings, everywhere. It's NOT because they think God isn't real, it's because they know He is and they don't want us having hope OR a purpose other than the purpose THEY try to force on us. Turn it all off, you won't EVER miss it I promise.

I started only reading headlines about 2 years ago, thinking that would be enough. Then I realized the headlines were lies that did not event match the lies in the article. They were lies to entice you to read the lies in the article. I stopped listening and reading all the news after that, about a year ago. It has not had one single negative impact on my life. It changed me from being upset and angry to be joyful and loving all the time. Not some of the time, all the time. I still hear the news that I should hear. I hear it in prayer groups. I pray with those folks, for the things that are important to them. But I don’t sit in front of the TV and feed on the fear that it creates. People want to deny that the news Is intentionally creating fear and dissension. I simply ask them, “ how does it make you feel right at this moment?” Enough said! Pray for those in need of prayer and take action if you feel called to do so. Wallowing in the misery is simply lack of faith. It is distrust in the Lord. We may plead with the Lord to change things, but then we must continue on with the purpose he has set for us, having faith that his plan Is good.

Imagine the conversations they'd have haha they'd be like, yeah no one is watching anymore! What do we do??? Haha. That would be great. They just push hate and mistrust and racism and anger and other negative things. They keep talking about how racism is so terrible and yet they talk about it CONSTANTLY. if racism ended they would have a LOT less to talk about.

That was for me: '...stretch the tent...' - Isaiah 54 is my chapter of promises. God has been turning the tables and clearing the foundation; I know He is making all things new but it's a messy process. I've been feeling like that fish out of water - more like on another planet. I'm not sure what I'm made for, as everything is changing...
Good Message. What the Lord wants me to give is that my wife and I are going to be Smith Wigglesworth of the 2000's. It does give me encourage keep seeking and keep asking and you will receive. That in between this word and the Now word. I hope someday you'll preach on this.

The prodigal son was a story I often overlooked as a child, I thought it was entertaining at best… but now as a young adult, this story resonates deeply with me. When you’re cloaked in sin, burdened with enoughguilt and shame to make you fear approaching God for forgiveness because you feel unworthy.,. If I can’t stand myself and all that I have done (drugs, self harm) why would He? That’s when the story of the prodigal son first meant something deeply to me. And I can’t even put it in words what it means to have a patient, loving Father such as God.

Paul called himself the chief of all sinners. He oversaw the killing of saints, and every time I read it I thank God for Stephen's dying prayer, and constantly remind myself of Paul's question: "What fruit had ye then in those things whereof ye are now ashamed? for the end of those things is death. But now being made free from sin, and become servants to God, ye have your fruit unto holiness, and the end everlasting life." (Romans 6:21-22)

I needed this. What a powerful and inspiring word! I just love this Pastor's analysis and application of God's work. God bless this ministry 🙏 Hi Carolin, how're you doing?
I feel that I struggle with people in most situations except when I am talking about what is ailing people. I thrive in talking about injury. Thank you for the message to fly in what I'm made for.
I'm blessed to be alive ooooo that's good right there AMEN 🙏 😍🤩💥💯♨️🔥
Thank you so much for this message. I feel encouraged and inspired. I am feeling a little lost in the direction God has for me to do in this season in my life. But my maker does and I trust He will show me.

Thank you Pastor Steven for THIS word for our insecurities! Glory to GLORY...Strength to Strength!!! 👩🏫💜 Praying God brings you Part II...
Thank you for sharing God’s word. I have been conflicted this week but this has put things in perspective for me. Thank you, thank you! I bought Elevation Nights tickets as soon as I could! I know it will be just the spiritual boost I need before I walk into this new chapter of TTC. I start IVF almost right after Elevation Nights. I KNOW it will give me the strength I need! I am praying that I am able to check two things off of my bucket list this year, Elevation Nights and getting pregnant!!!! Praise the Lord! I can’t wait to see what he has in store for us!
Amen!! Im blessed!
I really like you more and more every time I hear you! Thank you pastor

Praise U Lord, Jesus. LIVE BIG, BOLD in me. Use me, I am YOUR VESSEL. I Wnt to FULLY SURRENDER!!
This is amazing! I love when God decides to meet you when you aren’t even sure he’s going to show up (or you feel like he isn’t going to). I’m in the process of going back to school and gathering my MBA and one of the classes I’m taking I am actively writing a paper about Leadership, Leadership Traits, and Theories. Have been asked to look not only at my strengths but also my weaknesses and Insecurity has been a close companion since I was only 4. It was a lie I’ve been fed and fighting since I was a child. I have actually been waiting to finish up a paper where I am reviewing my weakness in Leadership and Insecurity was my last topic. Thank you Jesus! Thank you Abba Father for having a hot meal ready for me today. Thanking God for the Leadership of this house! Thanking God that this Pastor and His First Lady truly hear from the Lord. Nothing meaning No Thing is Coincidence but it is God choosing the stay “anonymous.” I don’t think it’s him being Anonymous really either but more being a good father and knowing and preparing us all for when the next day comes and what is to come of it.
God bless you Steven and your wife and family this word that the Lord gave you to share with others has blessed me and has made me realize my insecurities how I bless the Lord I need to trust God more and praise him no matter what I'm going through I lived in Charleston for 18 years I raised my children there please pray for my children salvation in the name of Jesus thank you and God bless you

Hi, Michelle! Thank you for sharing. We're praying with you to experience God's Love and Peace and that your children will get to know and receive Jesus into their hearts. Here is a message that will bless you. facebook.com/StevenFurtick/videos/284590035892219/
MOVE IN WHAT YOU'RE MADE FOR, HALLELUJAH. I RECEIVE THIS BLESSING, IN JESUS NAME, AMEN!
Absolutely blessed to be alive... taught two of my cousins how to drive and I really could've met Jesus early (at least 5 times), but His grace and protection sustained me 😅
Pastor Steven, I am from Brakpan Gauteng, and it amazes me How the Holy Spirit works, thank you, love you and Holly, God bless
Im a child of the light, that's why darkness doesnt feel right for me, in Jesus mighty name Amen 🙏🏻 💜
I was made in the image of God. Praise God Almighty 🙏🙏🥰
Beneath the surface is what I call the “submarine”experience…like the Red Sea parting, what was beneath the surface of the Sea…✝️
I am sent a video of your teaching every time I'm going through something Or 2cd questioning something It's always on the subject that I am in need of at that moment Isn't it amazing how Our Lord works in us Praise the Lord Hallelujah
“What God had blessed, no man can curse”
'He's drawing some things forth; some of it looks ugly, some of it looks unfamiliar; you just trust that the One who is speaking knows what's beneath the surface.'
Thank you Pastor Steven! This word really spoke to me. I listened to it twice. Oh, and I love the song Welcome Resurrection!
This message is an answer for all my insecure questions
Thanks again for your words of encouragement 🙏 for. hope, faith& most important love
I'm in Sterling Colorado, living in my van wherever I can park for a night. I watch the elevation service everyday. I love the way you preach. I believe you know exactly what I'm experiencing with God. It's like you speak every single thing I go through on a daily basis. I may be alone and living in my van, but I'm so happy. Thank you Mr. Furtick
After this sermon, my insecurities i shall learn to love more and more each day for i am a trophy of God and knowing that: girdle, tucking my belly for a incoming person and or giving a have step wave shall be no more🤪😂🤭: I rubbed my belly and said i love you because you are a reminder of my 4 children and them delicious chocolate cakes. Thank you granny flaps for know i can way not only to one person but everyone else around me. Etc thank you Pastor Steven and ty Jesus... AMEN... AMEN and AMEN... a funny thing all this is new to me as is to aging which is a scary thing. I just turned 54 and weigh about a hundred 67 the two things that women supposedly are not to speak of but I am an open book LOL but on the real, I'm just trying to get adjusted to changes in my life as they come and to know and learn that it's okay and to be still when I think . This is why I applaud bigger women than me out there just loving themselves as they are and not being a shame of who they are, a child of God. Society can be a crucial world on what you should look like, act , taught and or be like, but the buck stops here and don't get me wrong I can care less what other people think and or say about me but my insecurities is what I got to work on. If you're reading this God bless you
This is so good Ps Steven..ur sermons always came in the right timing thank u so much!
I like the way you communicate the teachings over some other ways too. I invite more of it into my life because of it.
