You have a purpose! Welcome it.
The Holy Spirit whispered to me yesterday that ALL the pain that I walked through since before birth was Ordained by God to be my "University Degree". I endured so much pain, abandonment, and betrayal to be Equipped as a Vessel that can feel and have compassion on those God wants to reach / draw. He Chose me and made sure I had no family or friends so I could never fit on this planet. All the ostracism was to prepare me to do HIS Will and be sensitive to pain-filled people. Many religious counselors or secular psychologists attempt to find ways to get people healed so they can be fit for society. But God raises His Elect in a Way that does no coincide with the world. Being a 'misfit' or an 'outcast' is part of HIS Plan. His Children won't fit anywhere in society (including churches). His Elect are those who pass through without clinging to politics, ethnicity, country; they cannot be identified by anything on earth. His Ways are not man's ways; they have always been and will always be MUCH HIGHER and they include Eternity!!!
If you're reading this, please pray for my friend Annie. She is a homeless, recovering addict. She has been through every type of pain you could imagine a person could go through. She has experienced loss, abuse, suicide attempts... And yet with Jesus, she has such a loving, strong heart. I have never met a woman like her. Please pray God will bring miracles into her life, and turn her situation around. I ask in Jesus name, Amen 🙏🏾

I pray that God covers Annie and that you continue to provide for her. Lord show her that you love her and that she has a purpose in life. Give her the strength to endure. Lord cover her dear friend whom was compassionate enough to ask for prayer for her friend.

I have nervous system damage from a brain disease. My sight, senses and hearing are all muffled. Then from emotional and physical abuse my insides are torn up. I am praying for the Holy Spirit to help me by guiding Me because I can’t guide myself. Be my eyes, dear Lord. Be my ears, dear Lord. Be my touch, dear Lord. Thank you for your testimony

The Lord Jesus Bless and keep you always Bishop Jakes!!! He has used you to Minister to me in some dark times and places I was in aww! And he continues to use you. I thank him for u. You are for such a time as this and I am blessed to be a witness to your ministry ❤❤❤❤❤❤❤
I was laying on my bed listening and singing this song and I placed my hand on the part of my body where I was sick and I called the name of Jesus and I believed he could heal me, once and for good and He Did, The name of JESUS is really powerful, it's been given to us so that we may call his in front of any situation no matter how bad and big it seems, That name is above all....thank you Jesus. I love you Lord

I really appreciate this message. I feel broken for sure. My health, relationships and finances have suffered these past couple of years. My hope is that i am learning and growing from these life lessons, and things will get better soon. I know that I am far from perfect, but I will try to make things right by those that I have wronged
What a WORD ❤️🔥
I sang the Hymn Here I am Lord is it I Lord I have heard you calling in the night for 15 years I've finally surrendered after my fear did nothing and running away did not help and my branches are growing.

I know that i'm choosen by God
When God said you won't stop drinking,smoking, and partying, I'm going to put an end to it. Ib in the club bored. My stomach aches from drinking, and my chest beats from the smoking. Weed was my light god say no...I would be smoking and nothing happens. When god said you're too stubborn, I'll humble you. I felt like a crazy person. My whole life was changing without my consent. I refused countless times saying leave me alone" I don't want this. God said it's not up to you. My journey has been long ice, which endures many harsh lessons, but praise be to God, he never gave up on me. N today, I'm a child of God. Praise be to him
TD Jakes U r a blessing to mankind, knowledge is key . May the LORD continue to bless Ur ministries
I ran from my call too. I did the same thing Bishop! 😊 I RAN UNTIL HE RAN ME DOWN. I REFUSED MY CALL. I HATED I WAS A PROPHET. NOW, IVE EXCEPTED IT AND ALL RHAT COME WITH IT.
Amen
I treated my wife so bad and cheated. Today when I woke up my wife was playing this song and it broke my heart knowing how much I love Christ and my marriage. I took a step of moving away from evil and love my wife the way Christ loved His church. This song changed me so much

I hope you are doing well! Just want you to know that I'm still praying for you. My sister won her custody battle right before Thanksgiving 2023! It was a long 2yrs and she had been so stressed and depressed! God brought her through this battle! She gave it to him and he showed up and showed out! Her daughter's father tried to bring his entire church congregation, along with the pastor to be character witnesses. He was exposed with embarrassing facts in front of his pastor and the congregation! He fell in the ditch that he dug for my sister! I just want you to know that God is in control, you just show up and God will do the rest! 🙏🏾🙏🏾
