A couple weeks ago, I was feeling defeated, like the devil was winning. I thought that because I was suffering I guess. But then it occurred to me that no, the devil wasn't winning. God was answering my prayers to make me grow. And I had been kicking against it, not realizing it. When I realized my prayers were being answered and that God was still winning, I understood - at least a little - of what it means to rejoice in your suffering.
Totally agree! The other day I was all mopping around and feeling defeated….after the midterms, but then the Lord revealed something to me. I’ve been asking the Lord to bring me closer to him and let others see him in me. He has given me many many opportunities to do that recently. It’s what I asked for. It’s what I prayed for. I’m going to try and use this uncertain time to spend time in the Word and pray more for our nation and try and think Christlike. He’s giving me exactly what I asked for. God is good, all the time❤️
More and more, I want to be like Jesus. Wow, I struggle in that, and the Lord knows just how dead and unmotivated and lukewarm my heart is, but more and more, I want to be conformed to His will and be made humble and be stripped of my pride. I know that my place is not on some stage teaching people, for I am so lacking in knowledge regarding the Lord and His ways and His character and plan. If I can serve other people in His name, that’s enough. If they can forget me and remember God, perfect. I am so full of failure though, unless God works in and through me. Please pray for me, for I am struggling. Thank you. May the Lord God be with you all.
I'm with you! Praise be to God that he loves and knows how to use wretches like us! Keep your head up Jesus has WON! We just need to continue to simply believe and freshly submit to his Kingship. God bless you in your journey home.
I was raised as a child preacher before I got to know Jesus for myself. I was exalted by others very quickly. However, now that I am pursuing Christ genuinely I am ashamed of what I said and did after Sabbath was over. But God is the great Redeemer. He has died on the cross and killed our sins with Him! That doesn't just mean we are forgiven. It means we are changed. When we sin, it is no longer a setback. It is now a testimony! If you are struggling with humility or a certain issue right now, it means that God is using you and me as examples of what His grace can do! One day, you'll be talking to someone and they'll ask about your story or why you're so dedicated to doing whatever little service you're doing and you can tell them, not of how you yourself went and fixed your life, but brag about your failures and God's grace! The only thing we as Christians have to brag about is how much of a failure we are! Because that makes God's grace and forgiveness all the sweeter. Brothers and sisters, don't exalt yourself. God is more than capable of doing it at the right time. Just because you're not some big preacher doesn't mean you're a bad Christian. Are you communicating with God? Do you love and serve Him? Are you willing to wait for His timing even if it'll never come? Are you willing to be like Jesus? If not, pray about it. If so, PRAISE GOD! I strongly encourage all of us to not give up just because we don't see the results the world defines as being a good Christian. Humility makes Christians. Grace makes Christians. Love makes Christians. Nothing else. Live for God. There's this excellent quote that says, "Preach all day, every day without stopping. And if necessary, use words."
I saw "what I did after Sabbath" and I knew I had to read it all. Because at some point I relate. And I want to thank God for being so graceful and giving me a chance to experience His love and character. He winked at my ignorance years of worship and now all I want is to worship Him in truth and spirit.
Having a great ministry that helps lots of people is wonderful. Being like Jesus, that is awesome. For me, personally, neither of these are enough. For me, they're not the prize. Jesus Himself is the prize I want. He has saved me, yes, but I want more. I want daily intimacy with Jesus, connection, I want to interchange with who He is. I want to gaze upon His beauty. I want to experience Him. (There are other things I want: I want the salvation of loved ones, I want to walk in a manner worthy of Him, I want to be healthy, but all these are second. Everything else pales in comparison to the surpassing greatness of Jesus Christ Himself. That's just where I am right now.)
Thank you for this message! I needed a reminder that I'm being sanctified and purified to bring Glory to our Lord Jesus! Tho he shall slay me, I will trust him
This is exactly what I had to hear today. Thank you Jesus for not leaving me to try and figure things out on my own, instead you hold my hand and tell me what I need to do so that your holy name can be glorified and not my own. Amen.❤
this is encouraging to remember when i go through trials or periods of doubt, God is strengthening me and I am getting what I asked for. the flowers grow with rain. praying for all of my brothers and sisters alike, that as we press forward with His strength, we would also continue to delight in His fruits & gifts of joy and peace! love you all ♡
You know, I am so full of mistakes its overwhelming. I am the runt of the litter. I say silly and childish things. I behave so poorly at times. Yet, despite my inconsistencies, God has used me and men just like me. May we continue desiring His will, His plan, and His glory. Amen
This makes me so joyful to hear this message. Pray that this time that I have now is a time to be made like Christ for any work that he will give me. Whatever work I have that shapes me into the image of Christ I'll be happy. Thank you lord
All I want is to have Jesus more and more in my live. Am I worthy 😔 NO I AM NOT. Do I want to go to heaven 🤔? Yes I want to. Do I deserve to go to heaven? NO I DON'T......... With GOD'S grace and mercy 🥺 🙏 ♥️ God use me to be a servant like Jesus 👌 🙏
Thank you! Thank you for all the work to collect and put all this up for us. I'm downloading everything and saving it for my kids and their kids. The impact is immeasurable. How great is our God!!!
Pray for me as I go through temptations pray that I rely solely on God and his word. That his kingdom come and will be done in my life. That I change and continue repenting and glorifying God all my days yearning to be more like Christ. Pray that I turn away from my lustful desires and that I step away from a focus on money that instead I seek first the kingdom and rely on our lord god almighty. That I step away from my addictions which is use to cope instead of relying on God. And thank you for any prayers. I too will pray that the Lord our God continues working in all of us that he changes all of our hearts and make us more like. Christ that the focus on the things of this world fade away from us and that instead we thirst and hunger more from his word and his glory.
It's my desire to follow Jesus. I pray God help me to be the like him in his ways I choose. Sometimes becomes more thought for me as a single young man who just a student more especially being alone. I feel more tempted by young girls around but just have to focus and keep my heart on the Lord for strength.🙏
Correct me if i'm wrong but the message is: Your time will come in Jesus. But for now, be patient and trust him because he's shaping you. If you rush, you'll be there anyway, but you'll be incomplete. Because YOU did it YOUR way.
For a second I was thinking how bad this message is and how could he be saying to not want to be like Jesus or a preacher even though the bible says to strive to be like our Lord. After a minute I think God impressioned on me to not pray for what you want but for the will of God to be done because his plans are better then ours.
It sound so good, but is so hard. I cant introspect myself and see am i humble or not. People like myself tend to romantize our character and behaviors, but true humility... i dont know, i hope i will get to that point where it will be my constant state of mind. Cause only in that state i can get grace of God
Moses desired to execute righteousness and justice for all who are oppressed. (Psalm 103:6) He had to spend a long time in the land of Midian, in the desert 🏜 likely feeling everyday as though he dropped the ball and failed to live according to his calling. Looking back on that day when he killed the Egyptian oppressor. But God knew His servant Moses. In the desert 🏜 his character was the same. “Moses stood up and helped them, and watered their flock.” -Exodus 2:17 Moses wanted to relieve the oppressed. (Isaiah 1:17) KJV But it took years of Moses being emptied out, in the desert 🏜 of Midian, before God could use Moses. He had the right stuff, all along… But He wasn’t humble enough for the job until much later on. ~ 11¶And it came to pass in those days, when Moses was grown, that he went out unto his brethren, and looked on their burdens: and he spied an Egyptian smiting 🤜🏼 an Hebrew, one of his brethren. 12And he looked this way and that way, and when he saw that there was no man, he slew the Egyptian, and hid him in the sand. -Exodus 2:12 Moses couldn’t tolerate injustice. But he wasn’t usable until later on.
Being made isn't easy, you fail at being righteous. You hate yourself after every sin, you hate the world even more. You'd rather die in Christ this very day than to continue in this wicked flesh. The only peace you could possibly have, is knowing that one day, there will only be righteousness walking amongst you. Until that day comes, I'm an unworthy sheep trying to love a den of wolves.
So hard….. I mean hard I always that I want to become like Jesus and when Paul plain stating about what it means to become like Jesus… I traveled back my life and I cannot become like Jesus 하나님 도와주세요 마음은 있는데 죽는것보다 힘든 길인걸 알아요…
Ok, this guy might be growing on me. I like this style of "preaching" rather than his pulpit demeanor and methodology. He seems to rely too much on histrionics and theatrics in the pulpit or up on the stage, but when he speaks extemporaneously, like he's doing here, he's much more believable. Maybe there's a lesson there for all of us.
I Just Want To Be Like You , Yehoshoua ... I'm yours , Lord of my Heart . Do what You want with me. Make me who You want me to be. It can't be otherwise . Amen. Glory To You Only , My Dear God. ✨👑✨. Be blessed , brothers and sisters .
Not on the day when the crying woman asked him how to be saved, in that answer he was the meanest man ever...I will never forget that, and God certainly won't either...I hope Paul humbles himself and asks God for forgiveness- that girls soul got saved maybe, we don't know - but if not, it will be Pauls fault
Brother Paul, you spoke one thing in error. Jesus does indeed intend on us knowing what it will cost us to follow him. "For which of you, intending to build a tower, sitteth not down first, and counteth the cost, whether he have sufficient to finish it?" Luke 14:28 KJV "If the world hate you, ye know that it hated me before it hated you." John 15:18 KJV "Marvel not, my brethren, if the world hate you." 1 John 3:13 KJV "Blessed are ye, when men shall hate you, and when they shall separate you from their company, and shall reproach you, and cast out your name as evil, for the Son of man's sake." Luke 6:22 KJV "That no man should be moved by these afflictions: for yourselves know that we are appointed thereunto. 4 For verily, when we were with you, we told you before that we should suffer tribulation; even as it came to pass, and ye know. 1 Thessalonians 3:3 KJV "Beloved, think it not strange concerning the fiery trial which is to try you, as though some strange thing happened unto you:" 1 Peter 4:12 KJV "Yet if any man suffer as a Christian, let him not be ashamed; but let him glorify God on this behalf." 1 Peter 4:16 KJV
I think he means like the specifics. Like we know we'll suffer, we can expect family or friends to turn on us, we can expect to be maligned but knowing a punch is coming is still different than the personal experience of feeling that fist to the face and seeing who it came from. Like when the James and John were told by Jesus that they didn't know what they were asking for in Matt 20:21 but followed with the fact that they'd still be drinking the same cup that He has to drink. So they knew suffering was involved but didn't understand the degree. So we know it's gonna be rough but we have no idea how rough because more often than not when we say yes (at least in the beginning) we have a list of pains in mind that we can endure and are willing to endure, but more often than not its what we cant endure on our own or didn't expect either at all or at the moment that we end up having to go through. Otherwise we'd all be bragging (intentionally or unintentionally) about our own endurance and fortitude rather than Christ's capacity to carry us through triumphantly.
Hello, brother Paul is a member of Christ Church Radford--so he does not regularly have Sunday services streaming. However be sure to subscribe to HeartCry Missionary's TH-cam channel for updates on their missions work.
It's my desire to follow. I pray God help me to be the like him in his ways I choose. Sometimes becomes more thought for me as a single young man who just a student more especially being alone. I feel more tempted by young girls around but just have to focus and keep my heart on the Lord for strength.🙏
Use me is a wonderful prayer... We're misunderstanding it slightly... Carrying ur friends baggage is good and a privilege but praying God to use u doens't mean preaching... Jesus never said about being a preacher he said be witnesses... U need to be in the field not a spectator... Asking fame and asking to be used for God's kingdom are two different things... Not asking God to use u just because ur afraid that ur asking for something wrong is a huge mistake... All of us have one prayer... Let us be instruments in God's hand... Don't mix both n later loose God's call just out of fear.... Imagine Jesus hiding so not gain much attention... If Jesus just prayed whole night n hid during the day , he wouldn't have accomplished anything... Jesus was a loud... Out spoken... Had anger, an amazing sense of humour... When it was time he just stood up and took the centre stage... Stole the show... ... We want to be like Jesus...yes to not be money squeezing evangelist... But we want to be used .. we don't want to carry the baggage... We want to be in the field with mud on our hands... Ploughing the field... Seeing the harvest...and taking care of the fruit... Be in the action.. Sorry no offense 🙏
God says in Quran about truly devoted christians "...and nearest among them in love to the believers will you find those who say, ‘We are Christians,’ because amongst these are men devoted to learning and men who have renounced the world, and they are not arrogant. This is because there are worshipful priests and monks among them, and because they are not arrogant. And when they hear what has been revealed to the Messenger you see that their eyes overflow with tears because of the Truth that they recognize and they say: 'Our Lord! We do believe; write us down, therefore, with those who bear witness (to the Truth). And why should we not believe in Allah and the Truth which has come down to us when we do fervently desire that our Lord include us among the righteous?" 5;82-85
God is love, no one is lost forever, Gehenna never should have been translated hell, it is the valley of hinnom, Jesus warns the Israelites, it would be better to cut off your hand then to have that happen again, it was an earth judgment, they threw their babies into the fire for the false god baal, and for this the wrath of God came upon them, He said He didn’t command them to do that nor did it come to His mind, the valley of slaughter is what the prophet called it, and the lake of fire isn’t forever, the word Aionon and it’s variations mean age with punishment, the original language of the Bible is Koine Greek they are seen on the outside of the Kingdom after, and those in Christ rule over the nations on the outside of the Kingdom and inherit glory, the word used for outside in Greek is “exo” used 63 times in the Bible and never once for dead, Universal Reconciliation is the original and only true Gospel, to the first language of the Bible.

I can relate to this heavily. God bless you.
I can relate, too 🙏💝 After 1/2 a Century I'm finally getting a *glimpse* of what it means to rejoice in suffering.
Totally agree! The other day I was all mopping around and feeling defeated….after the midterms, but then the Lord revealed something to me.

Same indeed. Amen Rejoice and be joyful. 🙌🏻✝️
“And He was saying to them all, “If anyone wishes to come after Me, he must deny himself, and take up his cross daily and follow Me.”
Luke 9:23 (NASB)
This message is particularly addressed to Paul Washer
More and more, I want to be like Jesus. Wow, I struggle in that, and the Lord knows just how dead and unmotivated and lukewarm my heart is, but more and more, I want to be conformed to His will and be made humble and be stripped of my pride.

If I can serve other people in His name, that’s enough. If they can forget me and remember God, perfect. I am so full of failure though, unless God works in and through me.

God bless you in your journey home.
Only let us fix our eyes on Jesus.
He will help us
Please pray for me too. My situation is similar to yours .
I appreciate your testimony
May the God of hope full you with all joy and peace as you trust in him

I want to be like Jesus Christ my Lord, Father, friend and saviour.
Dont eat Pork, the Lord didnt eat it, reflect Christ

Thank you brother Paul, your talk is always Christ center. God bless
This is exactly what I had to hear today.
Thank you Jesus for not leaving me to try and figure things out on my own, instead you hold my hand and tell me what I need to do so that your holy name can be glorified and not my own.
Amen.❤
5:53 -- This is that statement that sends chills on conviction down your soul.
Bless all and hope all keep the faith and grow and study and pray.
GOD BLESS YOU ALL IN CHRIST.
Father GOD put a humble heart in me so that I will be more like JESUS, cover me with your presence.
this is encouraging to remember when i go through trials or periods of doubt, God is strengthening me and I am getting what I asked for. the flowers grow with rain. praying for all of my brothers and sisters alike, that as we press forward with His strength, we would also continue to delight in His fruits & gifts of joy and peace! love you all ♡
You know, I am so full of mistakes its overwhelming. I am the runt of the litter. I say silly and childish things. I behave so poorly at times. Yet, despite my inconsistencies, God has used me and men just like me. May we continue desiring His will, His plan, and His glory. Amen
This makes me so joyful to hear this message. Pray that this time that I have now is a time to be made like Christ for any work that he will give me. Whatever work I have that shapes me into the image of Christ I'll be happy.
Thank you lord
Oh my God. I understand every bit of this message.
No you don't
All I want is to have Jesus more and more in my live.
Am I worthy 😔 NO I AM NOT.
Do I want to go to heaven 🤔?
Yes I want to.
Do I deserve to go to heaven?
NO I DON'T.........
With GOD'S grace and mercy 🥺 🙏 ♥️
God use me to be a servant like Jesus 👌 🙏
beautiful pure wisdom from above James 3:17
I think I'm listening this at the right time I needed to listen. Thanks saint Paul Washer.
He who began a good work in you
Will perform it!
By your grace, oh God, make me believe in Jesus.
There's only one Son of God, Jesus Christ, whom God is well pleased.
This man oozes wisdom
This is amazing, brilliant, so much truth, thankyou for posting
Thank you! Thank you for all the work to collect and put all this up for us. I'm downloading everything and saving it for my kids and their kids. The impact is immeasurable. How great is our God!!!
This is so beautiful! God really is working in this man's heart. Wow. God is good and listen to peoples prayers
Humble men are inspiring
This humbled me so much!
Pray for me as I go through temptations pray that I rely solely on God and his word. That his kingdom come and will be done in my life. That I change and continue repenting and glorifying God all my days yearning to be more like Christ. Pray that I turn away from my lustful desires and that I step away from a focus on money that instead I seek first the kingdom and rely on our lord god almighty.

I too will pray that the Lord our God continues working in all of us that he changes all of our hearts and make us more like. Christ that the focus on the things of this world fade away from us and that instead we thirst and hunger more from his word and his glory.
It's my desire to follow Jesus.
I pray God help me to be the like him in his ways I choose.
Sometimes becomes more thought for me as a single young man who just a student more especially being alone. I feel more tempted by young girls around but just have to focus and keep my heart on the Lord for strength.🙏
Correct me if i'm wrong but the message is:
Your time will come in Jesus. But for now, be patient and trust him because he's shaping you. If you rush, you'll be there anyway, but you'll be incomplete. Because YOU did it YOUR way.
This is so good! Thank you very much for the wise gentle exhortation but encouragement as well.
Amen❤ I want be what Jesus want me to be and let it be so✝️
Powerful message 🙌
Wow!! 🙌❤ I wanna be like Jesus! 🙇♀️❤
Amen! Praise Jesus!
I want to be like Jesus my forever love 💕
I needed to hear this, thank you.
Really thought provoking stuff.
Straight fire. Couldn't agree more.

Lord, help me.
Thank you for this
Paul Washer didn’t save me, Jesus did that.. but Paul let the way, in Christ.
Lovely ❤❤❤

Sir, do you have whole session for the Q&A? Really want to listen to this brother more. Thanks.
I Just Want To Be Like You , Yehoshoua ...
I'm yours , Lord of my Heart .
Do what You want with me.
Make me who You want me to be.
It can't be otherwise .
Amen.
Glory To You Only , My Dear God.
✨👑✨.
Be blessed , brothers and sisters .
Not on the day when the crying woman asked him how to be saved, in that answer he was the meanest man ever...I will never forget that, and God certainly won't either...I hope Paul humbles himself and asks God for forgiveness- that girls soul got saved maybe, we don't know - but if not, it will be Pauls fault
Be imitators of Christ!
Excellent.
"Happiness of the sixth Inn"
profound!
Can you share the full video link?
Who is the "Saint John..." Paul refered to in 5:00 ?
Just a fun observation , did you ever notice just how much Paul Washer looks like a young Jerry Lewis?
Love this pastors messages .
Amen
Brother Paul, you spoke one thing in error. Jesus does indeed intend on us knowing what it will cost us to follow him.
"For which of you, intending to build a tower, sitteth not down first, and counteth the cost, whether he have sufficient to finish it?" Luke 14:28 KJV
"If the world hate you, ye know that it hated me before it hated you." John 15:18 KJV
"Marvel not, my brethren, if the world hate you." 1 John 3:13 KJV
"Blessed are ye, when men shall hate you, and when they shall separate you from their company, and shall reproach you, and cast out your name as evil, for the Son of man's sake." Luke 6:22 KJV
"That no man should be moved by these afflictions: for yourselves know that we are appointed thereunto.
4 For verily, when we were with you, we told you before that we should suffer tribulation; even as it came to pass, and ye know. 1 Thessalonians 3:3 KJV
"Beloved, think it not strange concerning the fiery trial which is to try you, as though some strange thing happened unto you:" 1 Peter 4:12 KJV
"Yet if any man suffer as a Christian, let him not be ashamed; but let him glorify God on this behalf." 1 Peter 4:16 KJV
I think he means like the specifics. Like we know we'll suffer, we can expect family or friends to turn on us, we can expect to be maligned but knowing a punch is coming is still different than the personal experience of feeling that fist to the face and seeing who it came from. Like when the James and John were told by Jesus that they didn't know what they were asking for in Matt 20:21 but followed with the fact that they'd still be drinking the same cup that He has to drink. So they knew suffering was involved but didn't understand the degree.
So we know it's gonna be rough but we have no idea how rough because more often than not when we say yes (at least in the beginning) we have a list of pains in mind that we can endure and are willing to endure, but more often than not its what we cant endure on our own or didn't expect either at all or at the moment that we end up having to go through. Otherwise we'd all be bragging (intentionally or unintentionally) about our own endurance and fortitude rather than Christ's capacity to carry us through triumphantly.

Pastor Washer, do you have an online service that one can follow when u are having a service on Sunday
Hello, brother Paul is a member of Christ Church Radford--so he does not regularly have Sunday services streaming. However be sure to subscribe to HeartCry Missionary's TH-cam channel for updates on their missions work.
It's my desire to follow.
I pray God help me to be the like him in his ways I choose.
Sometimes becomes more thought for me as a single young man who just a student more especially being alone. I feel more tempted by young girls around but just have to focus and keep my heart on the Lord for strength.🙏

Do you think the Dark Night of the Soul is biblical?
Don’t know but it’s been me for the last 8 years.
What's your
?
Thank you, mister
His last name isn't cuba
What is the correct spelling? Thanks
Rogelio “Asea” or “Acea” but I think that his nickname is “Cuba”
Use me is a wonderful prayer... We're misunderstanding it slightly... Carrying ur friends baggage is good and a privilege but praying God to use u doens't mean preaching... Jesus never said about being a preacher he said be witnesses... U need to be in the field not a spectator... Asking fame and asking to be used for God's kingdom are two different things... Not asking God to use u just because ur afraid that ur asking for something wrong is a huge mistake... All of us have one prayer... Let us be instruments in God's hand... Don't mix both n later loose God's call just out of fear.... Imagine Jesus hiding so not gain much attention... If Jesus just prayed whole night n hid during the day , he wouldn't have accomplished anything... Jesus was a loud... Out spoken... Had anger, an amazing sense of humour... When it was time he just stood up and took the centre stage... Stole the show... ... We want to be like Jesus...yes to not be money squeezing evangelist... But we want to be used .. we don't want to carry the baggage... We want to be in the field with mud on our hands... Ploughing the field... Seeing the harvest...and taking care of the fruit... Be in the action..
Sorry no offense 🙏
God says in Quran about truly devoted christians "...and nearest among them in love to the believers will you find those who say, ‘We are Christians,’ because amongst these are men devoted to learning and men who have renounced the world, and they are not arrogant. This is because there are worshipful priests and monks among them, and because they are not arrogant. And when they hear what has been revealed to the Messenger you see that their eyes overflow with tears because of the Truth that they recognize and they say: 'Our Lord! We do believe; write us down, therefore, with those who bear witness (to the Truth). And why should we not believe in Allah and the Truth which has come down to us when we do fervently desire that our Lord include us among the righteous?" 5;82-85
Pray in secret in the closet!
Had the same thought.
Paul is the real deal I have ASD i struggle buti know who my JESUS is.
God is love, no one is lost forever, Gehenna never should have been translated hell, it is the valley of hinnom, Jesus warns the Israelites, it would be better to cut off your hand then to have that happen again, it was an earth judgment, they threw their babies into the fire for the false god baal, and for this the wrath of God came upon them, He said He didn’t command them to do that nor did it come to His mind, the valley of slaughter is what the prophet called it, and the lake of fire isn’t forever, the word Aionon and it’s variations mean age with punishment, the original language of the Bible is Koine Greek they are seen on the outside of the Kingdom after, and those in Christ rule over the nations on the outside of the Kingdom and inherit glory, the word used for outside in Greek is “exo” used 63 times in the Bible and never once for dead, Universal Reconciliation is the original and only true Gospel, to the first language of the Bible.
Does anyone know the name of the full sermon. Please
