    During the message, I saw how GOD has done this throughout the situation I've been going through the last 2 years, even up to the very moment of the sermon. I can relax a little bit & know to just trust GOD through all of it no matter how it looks.

House badly. I have been struggling with a pivotal desscion to sue the people to help with hospital bills. But I made a pivitol decision tonight to put my faith in God to take care of him and our financial needs instead. This was just a freak accident and I don't want to hurt more people. I know that this is from the lord and it is an opportunity to show Gods love to these people and also the grace and mercy I've been shown to them and to my son I thank God for using you as a tool to speak his word, bless you

From what I gather, you are rather lost and that is why you are commenting on this video. If you did not believe and were so set against God then why even click on a church sermon? Maybe God is calling you and inviting you to listen. I will pray that whatever hurt you feel from whatever happened to you, that you can come to know Jesus because He will heal you. As far as weak minded, having faith is trusting in what you can not see. That requires a strong mind because I will trust in Him and not need to know all the answers. I would suggest since you like to read, research history and see that Jesus is real. May you find peace and truth.

He is Spirit and He comes in fire with sacrifice and trust. Thank you for this message to the "planners" who make "dumb mistakes". This is from the Lord and It is beyond understanding.

I may be out of sync but The Word Has Been Right On Time. I'm rebuilding my life from being laidoff, lost Apt, to now again having an Apt and receiving my Pension. My Continued Faith and waiting for Everything Happen In Gods Time. Pastor Steven has got me up when I didn't want to because I was so depressed from having Fibromyalgia, Eye Condition and High Blood Pressure. I missed him this morning but I'm Ok Now. I'll continue to be better now that I've regained my connection!!! Thank You Pastor Steven and Elevation Church. God Bless aka Reborn (The meaning of my name)

    I have read this account so much, but hearing Pst. Steven break it down opened my eyes to something. True we only see Delilah when we talk about Samson but the fact remains that 'Our Dumb decisions when used by God produces powerful results'. I really have got to on my part, let go of all guilt like part of the message said, and focus on the purpose of God's plan for my life. I have a son out of wedlock and when i tell people he is a consolation for me from God, they act like i have insulted their Christian faith by insinuating that an out-of-wedlock child was part of God's plan and not they whole "sex is for only married people" which by the way, i don't dispute. I just know that, if i hadn't gotten pregnant when i did and become a mom, I would have fallen completely out of God's part, plan, will and purpose for my life. I truly am as i have always but with more assurance now, lean on God to let me know my 'Big decisions'. Cause i truly can't make any without him. I know this because i have tried in the past to decide for myself but let's just say now, am letting him lead me by the hand every step of the way. If y'all can take a moment to remember me in your prayers and ask God to really set me on the part he's called and predestined me for, especially with regards to be a Good mother, also praying for him to send me the right man to be both husband to me and a father to my son, I would be super grateful. Thanks you guys.

    Samson fell asleep on Delilah’s lap and woke up missing most of his hair but still had some left to repent and ask God to give him one more chance. We put our heads on this world and wake up bold unable to repent when judgement comes. Take care of your hair brothers and sisters before you fall asleep

    Reading Crash the Chatterbox at the moment published in 2014 and touching me in so many ways here in 2019!It is true when the word says ALL things work for the good of those who love him and are called according to his purpose.It amazes me how I see him actively work in my life as well as others Lamentations 3:22-23 says "The steadfast love of the Lord never ceases his mercies never come to an end they are new every morning great is your faithfulness."Amen!!I was raised a Christian but I never had a strong faith or truly knew the immense power God had until I moved to Hollywood to pursue my lifelong dream of becoming a singer.During this time I realized that what I've always wanted and worked for since a child wasnt what I had imagined,I became depressed and felt extremely empty within. My mother always told me God instilled into each of us the desire to worship or praise something which is why we are always longing for something more,in all actuality we are searching for God.After a year I became homeless and in that time had someone consistently preach and speak the word over me,but I was defiant and angry with God therefore I couldn't receive his word. I believe thats why the word says dont let your hearts become bitter and of anger residing in the cap of fools because when focused on the bad you cannot recognize the blessings he has bestowed upon you but he knows us better than anyone and he has seen time and time again how humans operate.God knows us now and is also well aware of the future for who has counseled the Lord??!!HA!Ive always been passionate about music but the one thing I'm most passionate and excited about now is doing the will of my God it was never in my plan but understand it isn't about you it is his will and it is all done for his glory!I want to encourage anyone who reads this that no matter what you're going through God sees you dont be ashamed to come to him with your troubles or asking for his forgiveness he is always present and wants you to be happy thats why the scriptures say he longs to be gracious to you he truly loves us❤Thank you Pastor Stevens for your ministry,I have family and friends that have been baptized at Elevation and I am just so grateful for the work God has done through you may he continue to be upon you and your beautiful family 💕

    It’s Pivot Week baby! I’m excited about it! I need a pivot! I needed this message! However, it can be difficult to leave our overbearing, controlling flesh behind. It wants to put us in a vice grip, but leave what we needed to repair in another garage far away... lost. I'm struggling with all sorts of sins, as we all do. It's difficult to maintain a spiritual state in a world that glorifies the carnal. And we can't do it alone. But as long as we wake up daily, realizing that in of ourselves we will fail, and accept the free gift of eternal life through the power of Christ Jesus... we will be transformed into a completely different creature. A creature of beauty and of worth. I believe that... I believe that fully.

    Its 2:30am here. Typically at this time I'm on Netflix or watching some anime. I had attended a certain church my whole life, until multiple circumstances drew me to a decision to leave the only church I've ever known. In order to grow and mature in my faith I had to make the tough decision to get out of my comfort zone and find a new church. This new church I'm attending is wonderful and I believe that this is in fact the church for me. But I cant let go of the past. I cant dismiss the fact that my old church gave me trouble and it's made me question God's church as a whole. It's not God's fault, his people are not perfect and I cant allow myself to distance myself from God for a single experience but its exactly what I've done. I used to sing at my old church and I'm about to start singing at this new one but I'm scared I'm not in the right place. I'm scared I'm not good enough for God to use. I want a new start. I want to get closer to God again. I need to. I know that I am happiest when God is by my side. When I allow God into my life I am the best version of myself. I am calm and collected when I am typically freaking out. He bring me peace. He helps me love people unconditionally. He gives my life purpose. With Him I feel lost. If anyone is reading this, I ask you to keep me in your prayers. I want to sing for God again. I want to leave my past behind me and serve the Lord again. When I sing for God I know hes using me. I know hes with me. I feel him there on stage with me. I have stage fright I really do. I shake so bad. But knowing He is there gives me the strength to push past my fears and sing in front of all those people. If you saw me youd know I'm soft spoken and shy and awkward but when I sing, I'm bold and sure because the Lord is there with me. The Lord gives me courage. He gave me this voice and the courage, strength and talent to make something of it. Serving the Lord with this voice is what I was meant to do. I just know it is. Because why else would God give me this gift?

When we were choosing where to leave to be close to the church we want to go, everybody kept saying but church is just on Sunday, you can’t based your decision on that. Yes I can! My spiritual life and my children spiritual life comes first. For us church is not just on Sunday, my family has to experience God in different ways. Attending and serving. Great, great word!

I made a lot of mistakes, most of the time it felt like I was a disappointment because I could have done what's right in a situation but I did it badly anyway.
