“I don’t have to post it to prove it 📴👏🏽❤️”

I've lived my whole life as a fraud. Coming from the poor neighborhood and home, with drug addiction, alcohol addiction, abuse in every form that outlined my family and childhood, shame became the only thing recognizable--it was the only "friend" that knew me. I have let performance destroy my life, many chances and opportunities, and relationship after relationship, trying to prove I'm worth it, enough in some way, belong in some way. Last Tuesday evening, I contemplated hanging myself. Everything was mapped out. I couldn't decide though (even in that, with lack of value) what I would wear making my final exit. Crying my eyes out, I fell asleep and spent the next few days in a blur to myself, but receiving message after confirming message about this very topic. Today...by the grace, mercy and love of Christ, I'm alive.

EMMA and DJA oh em gee. Hallelujah!!! Im so happy you’re still here with us. Im so happy God used this sermon to speak to you! God is with you and he understands everything you’re going through. Jesus was from a place called Nazareth. It was an unpopular, condemned, rejected & lowly place, to the point that when someone in the bible named Nathaniel even said “can anything good come from Nazareth?” & even in your situation, your whole life you’ve probably heard “can anything good come from a poor, drug/addicted home?” The answer is yes. If Jesus could come from Nazareth, then God’s goodness can come out of any unfortunate place. You can come from that background and still be redeemed. God isn’t finished with you! Your testimony is unraveling 🙏🏾🙏🏾💕💕💕

The pressure to perform can come from us not trusting God's power in our lives but doing everything in our own strength in order to get human approval. I have ended up here so many times and the truth is, if we are always performing for the world, we will always fall short and feel you are not doing enough, but when we let Christ use us as he wants, we feel no pressure and have that peace that he is still working through us even when we cannot see. It's so freeing to stop trying to be noticed and to let God do it his way.

30. Know that when you are born, all family and relatives’ blessings and curses from Adam down hang above you. But when you reach the age of consciousness, not the sorcerers but your first actions determine your choice. And the solution is to return first to God through his prophet according to 2 Chronicles 20:20. Seek Salvation first. And Salvation is only through the living prophet of your time. Not an angel, not a book called Bible or Quran. Not a prophet called Moses, Jesus of Nazareth or Mahomet. But the words of a living man amongst you. And you, whatever difficulties and sufferings that you are going through, first, know that the person to blame for all this is yourself. And in search for a solution, you shall not go to just any prophet and not just anyone should lay his hands on you. You shall never trade your Salvation for an ephemeral relief from Satan in a Catholic, Protestant, evangelical or Branhamist church. In Genesis 50, Joseph asked that his bones should go up from Egypt with Prophet Moses. And you, if you are a chosen one, you must not die before you accept Kacou Philippe, the living prophet of your time.

@@yaobleestelle2513, Please may I ask you to watch a KZread video I just watched called HOW AMERICA DESTROYED THE GOSPEL which came out September 19, 2015. I do not know of this Kacoa Phillipe but there is only one name under heaven that we are saved. Jesus Christ became our sacrifice on the cross and rose 3 days later. His Blood only cleanses us from sin so we do not go to the lake of Fire later with Satan, his devils, and sinners. Jesus is the only Son of the True God and I follow Him and no other and so should you. there are many warnings in the New Testament warning against False Prophets and I suggest that you for your eternal spirit's sake repent of following this False Prophet or be like one of those who shall go into the lake of fire.

No more cues from the culture!!! HEEEYYYYYYYY!!! This Pastor is called to our generation!!! Thank you, Jesus, for this word. God spoke to me about imposter syndrome and fraudulent complex last week by bringing these words to my spirit. I thought, God those are strong words to feel about myself, where does it come from ?? I have been praying and waiting, journalling. Imagine my surprise to hear this word! God is so faithful.

The fact that Pastor Steven rips open his own disfunction, his own pain, his own issues, (an incredibly vulnerable thing to do) just to reach us in our pain in our disfunction, in our issues; that is what sets him apart.

Pastor steven furtick.. i am so so grateful for you. Your sermons have brought me through my deepest moments... thank you so much for your love of christ and preaching... always touches me.

This resonates with me in every way. I've always lived my life feeling like a fraud, that I have to proof to people that I'm good, never felt I was good enough. Tried to act like I don't care about peoples' opinion of me but deep down in my heart I'm dying for someone to see the good in me, even when someone does I find it hard believing it cause I don't feel it myself, telling myself I'm not good enough, always trying to do things I don't even wasn't to do just because I want someone to say something good about me... Listening to this sermon just gets to my core self, it's like God is talking to me himself... Telling me I am enough, I just need to focus myself on him alone... Thank you Pastor Steven🤧... I don't know if you'll see this message but thank you so much for being a blessing to us... May God continue to bless the work of your hands.... Thank you 🙏🙏🙏

I had an amazing friend when I was younger. He could play anything on the guitar and sing Boston, Steve Perry, etc. at 15. He hung out with me because he never had to bring his guitar or sing to be invited. I always felt bad for him, I knew he felt that was the only thing that people cared about in him.

Good morning my beautiful family, friens and all my brothers and sisters

Grateful, in tears and sane. This definitively was a word for sanity. And much more of love. It always feels like God is speaking directly to me. As a leader in a small church setting workers are few, so it's natural to feel underappreciated and overworked. There's been times when I am leading worship to a small crowd by myself, singing through pain/sickness to make sure the congregation can praise. I don't get paid to do it & I don't care if I do. The key is: "I do it for You!", as Pastor said. I never speak out because I don't want people to say I am boastful or a show off. I've been struggling, but God has a way of getting a word you so desperately need right to your heart. Lately, I've had a stigma toward social media (IG in particular), but Pastor Furtick taught that those are just tools we should use for the Kingdom and not for clout. I also want to encourage all my brothers & sisters that work for God and the Kingdom to remember God sees all your hard work, even if no one notices or thanks you. There's more to say, but I'll conclude with these words from Jesus Himself. "Peace I leave with you, my peace I give unto you: not as the world giveth, give I unto you. Let not your heart be troubled, neither let it be afraid." John 14:27 Thank you God, Pastor Furtick, the media team and all workers of the church for your service to our Father. May He bless you all abundantly!
