@@melissaphillips4439 Dearest friend, are you meaning me? I am thanking God for you! “He paid a debt he not owe, i owe a debt I could not pay! I needed someone to wash my sins away! And now I sing a brand new song amazing Grace, the whole day Long! Christ Jesus paid a debt that I could never pay!! 🤲❤️🔥💜”
@@melissaphillips4439 I appreciate this so much! Alone after a 22 year marriage to be safe! Missing my fur baby and faced with physical and emotional stressors and no matter what i do as I listen to praise and worship music and pray; the tears just won’t stop. Thank you for caring ❤️🔥🙏🏻💜🥰❤️🫶
I'm 21, 3 years ago I was locked in a psyche ward in jail for a year after being hooked on weed, acid, mushrooms, drinking, porn, and all sorts of unclean things I did in search of fulfillment. I lost my mind and Jesus was the only One I had to call on. I called on Him and He picked me up, cleaned my life and now I have a reason to live. Now I have hope not only for the next life, but I have hopeful ambitions of being a husband and raising a family in the future, making music, and telling others that there's a reason for this whole existence. Hallelujah!
That's an amazing testimony. Brother God will get glory for Himself through you. Be thankful because that means your life will be a blessing to others and will be full of blessings for your joy as well. Thank you for your honesty in your testimony and never stop looking up. Your Redemption has come. Be blessed always
Congrats! Even though I didn’t know you before I read this comment, I knew you could make it 😉 God works miracles, and I’ll say, that was one amazing miracle! Keep your head high, He’s here! 🥰✝️🥰
Christian zeek your testimony is beautiful share it and stand tall our God is beautiful and his love is agape without struggles we have no strength.... 🏹your a soldier 🧗🏻♀️
I was abused in every way as a child, which led to 30 years of crime, drug and alcohol addiction, and inevitably 14 yrs in prison, I hated myself and the world as a whole. I am 39 now and I praise and thank God every morning for my trauma, he was molding me to fulfill my purpose, I'm clean, free, and I am working in the behavior health field helping others make it through hard times. I begged for a servants heart and I surrender daily to his will, in Jesus name Amen 🙏
13 years of self-harm. Next month I’ll be 5 years clean because of Jesus. I can truly sing this song from the depths of my soul. I used to be ashamed of them, but now I am thankful for my scars. And HIS scars that saved me!! 💜💜
I know no one cares but I’m 1 day clean!!i know no one cares about this either but my sister is about 3 months clean(it was one of her New Years resolutions)! Congrats to you and I’m hoping to get there to.
@@rebeccawilson4444 I'm so happy for you too. My the Lord continue to give you His strength, grace , hope and love to continue in the work He has begun in you.
I’m a 23 year old suffering from cancer … it all started on 2019 … I have gone through 2surgeries ,22 cycles of chemotherapy, two radiation therapy, still on treatment … nothing worked on me … but I’m still alive … not because of anything I took nor because of my own strength…. God brought me closer to him … through suffering I came more closer to him… loved him more … learned to ask for his grace everyday …. And his strength is what keeps me going…. If anyone is reading this please know that the lord who delivered me will surely do good things in your life in his perfect time all you have to do is fight in prayer …❤
Your comment really made me cry You’ve been through a lot and yet you are strong Made strong through Jesus You inspire me to get stronger in Christ May God bless you and I’ll pray for you btw how are you doing now?
@@JesusMe-s4k Thank you so much for your kind words 😍… I’m good all by the grace of our god …. ❤️he keeps strengthening me with his verses and he is all the reason for me to keep on moving…And I know that our Lord is mighty and powerful to get me out of this situation… please do pray for me …
It is hard to understand this. I'm sorry that you are going through this. It is amazing that you have a good attitude and have not given up on God and that you are looking at the big picture. I pray that God heals you. Amen
Just got baptized today. Hallelujah! While driving back home, this was the last song to come onto my radio. It's been a long 35 years without him. Love Jesus!
I was born with a cleft lip and palate and i have scars on my face my hips and my mouth, this song has helped me discover my worth through christ. thankyou
My 5 year old son was born with a cleft lip and palate. He also has a really big scar in the bend of his elbow from the doctors ripping his skin at birth trying to go a difficult intubation since he was 13 weeks early. He is already starting to question his scars and wants them to go away. I pray he will someday embrace them.
@@daniellekrawiec7425 it's a long journey, I question god all the time still, but I eventually learnt to embrace myself and go, u know what this is who I am, no scar no story. I pray that your son finds his worth and I hope he knows he is amazing just the way he is. 😊
I think of that often. When I'm tired of being sick. God reminds me that Jesus paid it all. They remind me of the times that he carried me. And he will carry me to the finish line. Every breath is a miracle.
Your doing amazing you got this! U are way stronger then any battle that comes ur way or any struggles u are facing in life rn or have faced ur still here so that’s enough proof to show u how strong u are I mean look at u. I bet a year ago u were so lost… not in a mean way but look how far u have come ur doing wonderful keep it up! We all love and care about u even tho I don’t know u I PROMISE I CARE! So does God
All in heaven are rejoicing beacause of your new life...keep the faith..Jesus is your best friend.. He will get us through... You and me and others around the world who are fighting We'll make it
I’m an hour clean. This song really helps me to get out of all of my thoughts and to remember it’s not the correct or best way to get out of it. Jesus is!
Thank you for allowing God to write this song on your hearts so you could share it with the world! I have many, many scars, & at almost 67 it took me a really long time to be able to say Thank You, Lord, for my scars, but I'm so Thankful for His, also, which He received when He was crucified and died on the cross for my sins that I deserve hell for! I pray many, many lost souls will be Born Again In Jesus' Mighty Name when they hear this amazing song!
When I was in a car accident involving my friends, I thought I was gonna die and as I’m stuck in the car I prayed for God to save us, and now I’m here saved by the Lord Almighty! I have physical scars from the accident and it took time to heal both physically and emotionally, but with God I knew nothing was impossible with him. So I thank and praise him for what he’s done for me and everyone! Praise God
Dakota know that God is right there with you in this situation. He loves and cares about you. Cry out to him and he will hear you and he will deliver you out of this.I know cause I cried out to be delivered out of 10 months of depression,, he was there w ith me the whole time,but was waiting to hear his child cry out to him. There are alot of songs out there about storms in our lifes. Asking God to give you strength and guidence. When you feel weak he is your strength to fight and its his battle ask him to give you what you need.
I’m 15 and I got saved 2 weeks ago and I started putting god first in my life after 4 years of self harm and 6 years of depression and I got to the point we’re I had to give it all to god and now I’m so thankful for that choice I made because now I am speaking at churches and schools and more spreading the lords word and how he has changed my life and I’m so thankful for the scars
I know it's been 4 years but I hope since you posted this comment you started spelling God with a capital G because it's important to give him that reverence. He's not "a god". He is God. It's His title. He is The Almighty
Blessed are the poor in spirit: for theirs is the kingdom of heaven. Blessed are they that mourn: for they shall be comforted. Blessed are the meek: for they shall inherit the earth. Blessed are they that hunger and thirst after righteousness: for they shall be filled. Blessed are the merciful: for they shall obtain mercy. Blessed are the pure in heart: for they shall see God. Blessed are the peacemakers: for they shall be called the children of God. Blessed are they which are persecuted for righteousness’ sake: for theirs is the kingdom of heaven. Matthew 5:3-10
We all have scars, whether they’re on our body or on our souls! Still they remind us of where God rescued us from, they’re a reminder of His faithfulness. But more than that, Christ’s scars are a eternal reminder of God’s Love for us ❤️👏🏼 God bless you guys! Great job, Glory to Him ❤️
This song hits me hard so hard I was sexually assaulted when I was 13 and abused in a relationship later in life I also struggled with suicide thoughts and self harm (which I no longer do) not counting the invisible hurts I have scars inside and out and I am thankful for my scars because they are proof of what God has brought me through and continues to bring me thru on a daily basis. I will continue to give God the glory for all that he has done on my life 🙌🙏 it is because of him my wounds have healed and my scars are proof that he is real
Bless your heart and thank you for understanding GOD and choosing to believe in HIS goodness even where bad seemed to be reigning in your world ...I'm touched by your story and you have made me want to trust GOD deeper than I do ...so thank you ...you telling your story well helps me tell mine welll too!!
9 years sober in November 2019. My scars I wear proudly. I was physically, mentally, emotionally and sexually abused by my own family. Turned to alcohol and coke and pot. Anything to quell the pain. Until He reaches down and grabbed me. Sober 9 years Nov 2019!! Never give up! Jesus loves you!!!
I was baptized today. I’m thankful for the journey God brought into my life. He is God. I accepted Him into my life when I was 7 and now I’m 13. My life with Jesus is 1000000,0000,00000,00000,00000 times better. I see Him moving though me every day! He has helped me through so much. Christianity is a relationship, not a religion. My relationship with God is priceless. Thank you Jesus, for saving me. Thank you Jesus, for me getting baptized. You’re my God! Heavenly Father, I love you more then anything else. You come F I R S T. You are my Best Friend. Thank you Christ.
Big Judah, I am a Hebrew Israelite, and not a very emotional person at all. I have been following you and Elder Ayual for a very long time now. The Most High woke me up many years ago. I have heard this song and enjoyed it on 99.1fm for a long time now. Today I found it as I was searching for another new video from you. As I listened to it I began to praise God and cry uncontrollably, I began to cry out the words”With a mighty hand God, With a mighty hand, deliver your people Most High, Deliver us with a mighty hand! I could NOT stop crying and thanking him!!! I know that my understanding of deliverance is directly attributed to your masterful learning from The Most High and the Holy Spirit! I thank you for your dedicated obedience to to the Most High! I pray for you all the time! All praises to the Most High, our Deliverer and our precious Elohim!!!!
Struggled with depression after loosing one of my daughters. This song uplifts me. I’m going to live a productive life! I’m hella mad , the devil can no longer steal my joy. For God is the fountain head of my joy! And he has come to give me life and to give it abundantly and restore the years the locust has eaten. I pray everyday that his joy continues to be my strength and depression has no place in my life. As soon as they hear of me, they obey, this is a verse I use whenever I start feeling down. You are worth it and you matter, you deserve to thrive! That’s what God wants for us.
listen honey when Jesus was carrying that cross he was carrying it for you,the beating ,the crown of thorns all for you honey that's LOVE... and no matter what mistakes you have done he came for you .He was scarred because of you so be happy know that God loves you............................
in the mighty and precious name of Jesus 🙏 I know if we truly believe in the power and blood of Jesus Christ we can do all things through that strength. I believe the Holy Spirit is moving people in such beautiful and tremendous ways, but most certainly in my own personal journey of faith! 🥰 I am moved and have never felt more confident in my heavenly father or my walk with him. Together especially all things can be done through Jesus Christ who strengthens us.
I am old lol middle aged . I am active I workout regulary and excersise . Two months ago I developed a blood clot in my thigh I did not know I had . I was working out it broke free I passed out and the clot traveled to my lungs . I had extensive clots in my lungs . I spent a week and a half in intensive care . Every Dr. said what I had kills most people and Im fortunate to be here . Life is so short perfectally healthy one minute Death bed the other . Jesus is the way the truth and the life and Jesus loves you . I love the message of this song and Im thankful for the scars looking back now 2 months later . Jesus walked with me the whole time and never left my side . My experience though I already had a close relationship with Jesus brought me even closer to him . And again Im thankful for the scars . And I am thankful Jesus endured his scars upon the cross to pay my sin debt and make salvation possible . I love you Jesus thank you for saving me .
About three years ago I was on an operating table to have a painful cyst removed from my head. Exactly one year prior to the day I lost both of my parents in one day with my dad committing suicide. God has brought me through those awful days and you do come out different. As an author I am able to write with a deeper meaning. We all have scars, some are deeper than others and some wider. Psalms 34:17 “The Lord is close to the broken-hearted and saves those who are crushed in spirit”
@@steveblankenship5474 The type of faith you have to keep going is great. Maybe one day I can too have that great faith. God bless you in Jesus' name to glory of God the heavenly Good Good Father.
God saved me from dying . God gave me the strength to fight back the impossible . I am a living witness God is real . He heard my cry’s even though I couldn’t speak . What a mighty God we serve .
Isaiah 53:5 KJV But he was wounded for our transgressions, he was bruised for our iniquities: the chastisement of our peace was upon him; and with his stripes we are healed. Psalm 30:2 KJV O Lord my God, I cried unto thee, and thou hast healed me.
I'm 17, having became a child of the Lord God at 15, but during my 6th grade year onwards, I struggled with thoughts of suicide and self harm, it's been a week since I opened up to people close to me, I'm now a junior in high school and...I'm still here, not dead by suicide, I always thought I'd be gone by 2020, but it's 2023 and I'm typing this comment and getting the help I needed, I poured out my heart to the Lord on Wednesday September 13th 2023, the day before I turned 17, I was so hesitant about it but my tears were my way of pouring out my heart to God because He listens in all ways, this song is now a song I hold close to my heart because my emotional scars did/do hurt but I know now God listened to my cries for help, I'm now seeing a counselor and am 3 years suicide free and 2 years self harm free, it hasn't been an easy journey but I know if I cry, God's listening, bless you all, not just I AM THEY, bless you all in these comments willing to discuss your stories. 1:46 makes me wanna cry because, I'm not that suicidal Anna, I'm a washed in the blood Anna. ❤
Some wounds run deep. They've dug into the depths of your soul and spirit and found a comfortable home there. A home they dont want to leave. Sometimes we lose sight of what it can mean to feel good, to feel healthy and whole. God is so, so great. He is the One who can remove the scars and fill them with a deep soul satisfying peace, a place of love, of joy - of genuine hope. NEVER buy into the lies of the enemy; dont believe you are destined to suffer. God will meet you in those darkest depths that you've been afraid to share with anyone. He knows. He understands every hurt you've felt, every tear you've shed. Every one. And He wants to show you something so much better - a life you were designed for, the life you're meant to live. Seek Him with your whole heart. Then watch Him use your experiences to reach into the hearts of others. Its truly an amazing thing. Just like His almighty and never ending love.
Thanks for shareing tour comments. Your so fight he will give you a new soul.My only problems are having fear and letting me trust those that have hurt me.
Wow, you hit every thing Ive been feeling. Thats so profound. Thanks for lrtting God speak thru you and to be able to right it all down. This is perfevt timing so glade that I found your comments. May God Bless You.
Yelp me to. I was in a 1 month depression just beacuse of what your talking about. But by the grace of God he heard my cry March 2022 and brought me out . He Loves us all, for that Im greatful.
You can take my money You can take my happiness You can take my family You can take my friends You can take my everything But......... You can’t take my God! He will never leave me!
When I was one week old I had heart surgery. I easily could have died but God saved me. I believe that we are all here to make a difference and I know that if we work hard and if we believe and have faith we will be saved. I am saved. I believe in God. I’m proud to say that I am a Christian✝️ and I believe in God. FAITH can move mountains. Matthew 17:20. Be the difference that you want to see in the world. May God guide you and watch over you today and everyday. ❤️✝️
I used to model in Europe in my early 20s, and at age 37 after 88 days in the hospital I came home with an illeostomy and had 5 more surgeries over those next three years. It’s a miracle to be me now and still alive to be a blessing to my family and friends and strangers to love like Jesus: our perfectly scarred brother 🙏
Amen nothing can seperate you and God "For i am convinced that neither death nor life,nor angels nor rulers, nor things present, nor things to come, nor powers, nor anything else in all creation will be able to separate us from the love of God in Christ Jesus our Lord" Romans 8:38
Wow reading these comments and listening to this songreally warms my heart ❤️. Seeing how awesome our God is! Almost three years that God gave me a second chance to live after been shot in the back of my neck and the bullet almost leaving me paralyzed, to having 25 to 30% chance of surviving a c2 to c5 spinal fusion. I promised God with all my heart in tears if he would give me a second chance I would play 🎸 for him at my parents church! And three years later I am there worshipping him with my guitar, after two years of constant physical therapy for my right arm (i was unable to move it due to the damage the bullet did to my nervous system.) But Amen God is good!! I touch that scar every day and thank God for this chance to be able to worship him!
I went through self harms in high schools and I remember when I accepted Christ and stop there where scars I felt ashamed. But my Youth pastor said make it your testimony so I did and God Bless me because you can see those scars but for me there but those scars I am not ashamed I thankful for them because without them I would have given my life to Christ. I hope today we teach theses youth that the scars they have does mean they can not because a son or daughter Christ. He accepts us as we are not as we pretend to be I will never be ashamed what I went through and if It means going through it again to be where I am today I would do it again. I could never Go back because before I had no reason to live now I have every reason to live. So let remember those scars and be thankful for the lord.
A few months ago I was diagnosed with an incurable disease. It’s called lymphedema and causes my legs to swell and can cause disfigurement if not treated. I will have to wear compression on my legs every day for the rest of my life. I have been struggling this week, feeling ugly and worrying about people seeing me like this. Your song just ministered to my soul. I’ve been saying that I want to use my testimony to bring glory to God, but I’ve been battling my mind this week. Thank you so much! 💜🙏🏼
You are not ugly!! I suggest the TH-camr “Grace Nova” she shows how you need to keep going. She has been through so much and yet stays true to herself. I’m praying for you! He’s here, so live in Him. He’s everywhere, so pray anywhere! 😉
Prayers that you will see your beauty. You are beautiful! God made you in his own image. The rain falls on the just and the unjust alike. But God is with you always, and will comfort you if you just receive him. ❤
Similar. But I tend to always come back to God and then feel defeated again amd get stagnant depressed anxious. It is hard for people like us and that is what judgmental people need to realize. To be kind instead of hurt and threaten. Hope you are doing okay and healing and finding peace and others aren't pressuring you or pitting you in fear daily like they are me. God does love us. Infinite love. You are loved even if you don't realise it. Take care
Just know that NOTHING is impossible with God. He loves us more than we can ever imagine. He will bring you through. He gives us beauty for ashes. Please read Isaiah 61:3. God loves you. I will put you and others in my prayers.
So sorry you went through this and can’t imagine the pain and heartache this has caused you. I hope you know this was not your fault but Instead is because someone took their free will and abused that by sinning against you. Please know that God does care and will ultimately hold the people that hurt you accountable. It's so hard to feel and experience God's love when those around us who are supposed to protect, love and help us don't. Still God cares and has a plan to make it right in spite of all the ways others have failed us and the ways we fail and fall short oursevles. God paid the price for all of our sin by coming down to earth and being a perfect sacrifice, allowing himself to be abused to pay the price for all of our sins. Still trying to know and experience this more deeply myself. Will be praying for you on your healing journey..
Kamshia, GOD! YOU delivered me from ALL my battles, scars & difficulties but never change in loving me! Shall remain faithful in following YOU, my Eternal Abba FATHER!
There are two types of believers: Those who struggle and liars. Forty eight years ago, following my mother's death to a drunk driver, I was a drummer in a rock band into drugs, drinking, and immorality. After a night in jail, someone told me eternal life was the gift of God and I believed in Christ. I've taught in a Christian university and been a pastor for 37 years. In our church are former heroin addicts and alcoholics. NOTHING is greater than a person who has realized a bit of the mess they are and has met grace! Give me a church full of people who get it. I will forever be grateful for the One who paid for the sins of His enemies. Can't wait to meet the many of you on here who have been met with grace. Someday, 'round the throne, we will embrace and forever praise the Lamb! STAY FAITHFUL!
Pastor, please forgive me but your bold statement about two different types of believers is not exactly accurate. Read romans 10:9,10 That if thou shalt confess with thy mouth the Lord Jesus, and shalt believe in thine heart that God hath raised him from the dead, thou shalt be saved. 10 For with the heart man believeth unto righteousness; and with the mouth confession is made unto salvation. The Bible only talks about one kind of believer. And furthermore, what you call your struggles I might call more than a conqueror, victors, a learning experience. I am truly thankful for every battle I have had to walk through, not once did I ever walk alone so they are not mine and I do not consider them struggles at all I choose to see them as God showing me who he is and who I am. Pastor I have lived my life to long as a victim and I am done with that role. I am not called to be a struggler I am called to be more than a conqueror. Matthew 12:36 and 37 talks about watching your words so pastor which is it? Did God call you to struggle or conquer? Believers that choose not to look at their battles as struggles are not liars. Just like you seeing yourself as someone who struggles does not make you any less of a child of God thank you sir for listening to me.
@@huskerguy5715 then please clarify then your statement seems to be calling God's children a liar if they are not struggling through life. and quite frankly I do not remember reading in my bible where struggling qualifies us as believers. so if I am not understanding your clear statement that says there are two types of believers ones that struggle and liars please enlighten me.
@@Amanda-co1tj I'm sorry you don't understand my statement. It certainly may be my lack of clarity. My statement was tongue-in-cheek to say that all believers struggle. We all get eternal life by faith in Christ. Following our reception of life, the Apostle Paul then talks about life after we believe in Galatians 5:16 and Romans 7:14-25. The normal Christian life is characterized by struggle since we are still in bodies that battle against the desire of the new person within us. As John writes, If we say we have no sin, we deceive ourselves and the truth is not in us. Sin is ever present. Paul says in Romans 7:22-24 "For I delight in the law of God according to the inward man. But I see another law in my members, warring against the law of my mind, and bringing me into captivity to the law of sin which is in my members. O wretched man that I am! Who will deliver me from this body of death?" He also says that "If Christ is in you, the body is dead because of sin" (Rom. 8:10). He also writes in Gal. 5:17" For the flesh lusts against the Spirit, and the Spirit against the flesh; and these are contrary to one another, so that you do not do the things that you wish." Do you see? He says as a Christian, we often "do not do the things (we) wish". Paul says that if Christ is in us, our bodies are "dead". He says in Romans 7 that our flesh brings us into "captivity". Struggle is normal. My point was that all Christians struggle if they are honest. But, while all Christians struggle, that doesn't mean they can't have victory. The Spirit of God can empower our bodies and give us victory (Romans 8:11 and Galatians 5). My life as a believer has been helped greatly from learning from those struggles. So, since we are still in the flesh, we all have struggles. But while we are in the flesh, we don't have to walk according to the flesh. We can have victory and overcome by the power of the Spirit. God's desire and enabling seeks to lead us to growth and victory through His Spirit. I hope that helps you understand my point.
I always asked God why I would suffer and I would pray and my situation would get worse eventually I broke down and I realized I needed to get closer to him seek him and build a relationship to him and not just when I needed something from him and he answered my prayers and he healed me and now I understand that I had to go through that so I could seek him and now I look back to where he has delivered me from and I’m never going back and I seek to be closer to him everyday, I love this song it reminds me all victories he’s had in my life
In my teens and early 20's I was a predator, drug mule, rageful man that went to prison. In the depths of despair and just before I committed a deed that would have landed me in prison for life, God showed up in a miraculous way!! Now just before my 60th birthday, I can say "I am thankful for the scars"!! Without them I would be lost, would not have recognized God's unfailing love for me and would have not received the God loving wife of 35 years, 5 kids and 4 grandkids.... Praise the Almighty!!
Reading about a lot of physical scars. So proud of those who are clean and have returned to Jesus. Proud also of those dealing with emotional scars, who still trust in God and who have come out of their invisible battles stronger. Some scars are below the surface, where not a lot of people can see. Those scars are also proof of how God took you out of the deep.
30 years of my darkest times almost took me out .. BUT GOD SAVED ME. .FOREVER GOD I AM THANK FUL FOR THE SCARS. THAT ARE REPLACED WITH YOUR LOVE .. I COULD NEVER IMAGINE ONE DAY WITHOUT YOU..
I pray for my Mom that she will be put in the right place to care for her thank you Jesus for healing and restoring her health I know you hear my prayers thank you
I listen to this song when the storms in life get heavy. I never realised what the deeper message was Praise the Lord so many of you found encouragement through this song.
I am a week clean from cutting God has saved me from Death last Sunday I tried to end my life I got prayed for today and was saved from all of Satan's works on me I have a new outlook on life now 🙏and I'm am free
Praise the Lord!!! I am so proud of your success. I struggle with anxiety and depression though our struggles are not the same, remember to call out to Jesus when you do not know what else to do or say. You have this and the devil has no power over you because he was defeated at the cross! 🙏🏽🙏🏽🙏🏽🙏🏽🙏🏽🙏🏽🙏🏽
@@cliffordschmidt4560 why do you feel this why? God does not make mistakes no matter what the devil tries to tell you or anyone else. I am sorry that you are hurting. Jeremiah 29:11, Psalm 91, Psalm 46, Psalm 27
@@cliffordschmidt4560 I'm not sure if you're going to read this, but I'm going to type it anyway (just in case.) God can fix things with a snap of a finger, but sometimes it's not his will. Sometimes, it takes a little while to overcome things. Sometimes all the hurt, and nights spent wondering if it will ever just _stop_ , make you who you're meant to be. Help you to fulfill your purpose that only you can fulfill. I hope this doesn't sound pushy, or judgy, or that you read it with a mean voice, because i didn't mean it in that way at all (but i know i can be very blunt sometimes, sorry if it is 😅.) I just wanted to tell you that it's never too late to wake up and start over at day one (no matter how many times it takes), and that God loves you (and this probably sounds weird coming from a stranger on the internet, but i love you too ☺.) i hope you have a wonderful day/night! 💖
I see so many stories of healing. I've known Jesus for 25 years. Yet I'm still hooked on the dope. Lord when is my day? When will my tattered arms be a story of your love? When will I be able to touch the hem of your garment? Lord I've died several times, yet you alone brought me back. Why? For what? When will I be free from this hell? Forgive me for the doubt Jesus. Even so, your will be done.
I recently gave my life to God at 15, though I may not been a previous self harmer or anything within drug addiction, but I’ve had my own battles, my own downs in life and after I’ve chosen to give my life I could never be happier, thank you for this song to show everyone has their own battles and own scars even if you can’t see them. ❤️
*lyrics* I Am They Waking up to a new sunrise Looking back from the other side I can see now with open eyes Darkest water and deepest pain I wouldn't trade it for anything 'Cause my brokenness brought me to you And these wounds are a story you'll use So I'm thankful for the scars 'Cause without them I wouldn't know your heart And I know they'll always tell of who you are So forever I am thankful for the scars Now I'm sending in confidence With the strength of your faithfulness And I'm not who I was before No, I don't have to fear anymore So I'm thankful for the scars 'Cause without them I wouldn't know your heart And I know they'll always tell of who you are So forever I am thankful for the scars I can see, I can see How you delivered me In your hands, in your feet I found my victory I can see, I can see How you delivered me In your hands, in your feet I found my victory I'm thankful for your scars 'Cause without them I wouldn't know your heart And with my life, I'll tell of who you are So forever I am thankful I'm thankful for the scars 'Cause without them I wouldn't know your heart And I know they'll always tell of who you are So forever I am thankful for the scars So forever I am thankful for the scars
I love Jesus & thank him always for sharing the scars with his believers, cause without them I don't think we would have a humble heart. I grew up thinking scars were ruthless signs of being a bad guy. I thank God each day now knowing what they really represent.
That was nice of you to post the lyrics for everyone. :) Just one little correction: On the first line of the second verse, I believe it's "standing in confidence", not "sending in confidence".
LOVE this Song we Need you JESUS SO BAD!! I am tired of Crying these years Hear me JESUS above I Love you and there are So many people that need your help Today I Pray Everyday for All !!! Love you JESUS!!! RECORDING Artist IAN!!!
Praise God for delivering me from my sinful ways! He doesnt turn his back on you but reaches out even further to save you. Thank you Jesus and please continue to bless all brothers and sisters with your love and mercy!
Every single time I hear this song I immediately stop what I am doing and praise Jesus for his scars ...and mine. I struggle every day, but who of us can fail when Jesus has your back! My all time favorite song!! I LOVE IT!!

Today is Nov.19, 2022. Last night I took my twin daughters (14yrs) to their first concert! Hearts on Fire 2022(35th year) and I am They played at this event. They sang this song last night, and it was the very first time I'd heard it, and it brought tears to my eyes! Being there, and worshipping with Soo many people is undescribable, and last night 100's of youth&adults got saved last night! Y'all know how amazing that is, right!? Everything about this song is so true, and it has me looking at things A LOT differently then I did before the conference last night. The guest speaker &Pastor was Clayton King, and if you don't know who that is, I recommend you looking him up, bc he is AMAZING! Being there last night with this band and being with my daughters is something I'll never forget. It is forever etched into my memory. And I'll never forget that feeling! *Mark 5:24-35* #StrongerTogether! #Heartsonfirelive
Also, Clayton King has a new book out called Reborn. I've never read it, but he read ONE page out of it, and it had me wanting to read it! If that tells you anything, then I'd check the book out too! Ok, bye guys! God Bless! ✌️💖🧡
@@dannyrichards-nb9sh I have seen the movie, and read the book a few times. It's a wonderful story! That's amazing that you have met him! You're very blessed. 🫶🙏
Over 15 years of surgery after surgery to try and help my debilitating headaches. Over 30 surgeries in those 15 years. Today I am stable. 6 years surgery free. Still have debilitating pain but I’m still so thankful... hold on friends this pain will end.
‘My brokenness broug me to you’ I know you will bring me that peace I long for in every area of my life . The past 7yrs has been challenging mentally and emotionally... I know you re with me every step of the way. I WILL DEFINITELY SEE THE GOODNESS OF YHWH in the land of the living
No more getting paid on Friday and broke on Monday. Even though i hurt my Mom more than I'll ever know she never gave up on me. Serving the Lord for 25 years now but I still deal with the scars. WITH GOD'S HELP I WILL MAKE IT !!!
I am a victim of self-doubt and being scared of my own family. I am very thankful for our scars.. they do tell your personality.. did you fix it? Did you ignore it? My home is now in Christ's hands. I am not afraid of anything (basically) and I love God. He is my savior! Praise God!
This song is so great. I have scars all over from precedures and surgeries I've had my whole life. The Lord has blessed me so much with two separate double lung transplants at 18 and 24.
I had a living donor transplant in 2000. I've had a few surgeries in my life, also. I also have emotional scars from having Cystic Fibrosis from birth and being "different " and so much smaller than other kids. But God has strengthened me in so many ways! Love this song !
@@heatherpenick828 I always hated being known as the kid that coughed so much and had a separate trash can at the desk to spit into. Having to spend a long time in the elementary school bathroom was embarrassing as well.
Waking up to a new sunrise Looking back from the other side I can see now with open eyes Darkest water and deepest pain I wouldn't trade it for anything 'Cause my brokenness brought me to You And these wounds are a story You'll use So I'm thankful for the scars 'Cause without them I wouldn't know Your heart And I know they'll always tell of who You are So forever I am thankful for the scars Now I'm standing in confidence With the strength of Your faithfulness And I'm not who I was before No, I don't have to fear anymore So I'm thankful for the scars 'Cause without them I wouldn't know Your heart And I know they'll always tell of who You are So forever I am thankful for the scars I can see, I can see How You delivered me In Your hands, In Your feet I found my victory I can see, I can see How You delivered me In Your hands, In Your feet I found my victory I'm thankful for Your scars 'Cause without them I wouldn't know Your heart And with my life I'll tell of who You are So forever I am thankful I'm thankful for the scars Cause without them I wouldn't know Your heart And I know they'll always tell of who You are So forever I am thankful for the scars So forever I am thankful for the scars
I saw you in concert in January 2020 and you sang this beautiful song. I played it for my friend the next Saturday, shortly after he witnessed to and comforted a lady who just found out she had cancer. Rick had been fighting cancer for a few months at the time. This song meant so much to him, because it was exactly what was happening to him. He passed away last week. His faith never wavered though it all, and your song helped him be courageous. Please pray for Vivian, his wife of many years. Thank you.
All the testimonies of the comments are beautiful allow God in and he will work he will dwell in you of you let him and he will change you, your mind, heart and soul. I used to be very depressed and I have severe anxiety. I went to a therapist for help be it just wasn't right. I took meds and I still had anxiety it just felt suppressed. Like I could still physically feel the panic attacks but I couldn't express it. I was a mess. Im not denying therapy but what I'm saying here is that it wasn't the right fit. And I started to go with some friends to a church for teens, a more in depth youth group. With every focus on God and everything done for God. I started reading the Bible more I found things wrong with my life and even though I was scared of letting God see my scars and to fix them I finally decided to let him in. I'm clean from self harm, I still have depression but I experience it way less and its effects are more minor and my anxiety is less frequent. I'm new and no longer into other bad habits. God changed my life and through rough times has shown me self confidence and self love. I used to thing self love and self care was selfish. I know otherwise now. I used to think I didn't matter and I was some ugly mistake. Now I know Jesus loves me more than words can say and that I'm made in his image. I thought Jesus died for everyone but me. Then I realized through God's power, When Satan and the other angles disobeyed God sent them out of heaven and created hell for them to dwell. When we disobeyed God sent us out of Eden but he promised salvation. He loves us so much that he sent his perfect son Jesus to die for every sin that has been committed, is being committed and will be committed. Jesus felt everu pain and consequence for every sin. That's why he said "My God, My God, why have you forsaken me." He did that for us. Including me and Including everyone who reads this. He turned me from a depressed, anxious, shy, suicidal, self hating mess into a loved, calm beautiful, self caring person. I now have friends, friends who know God too, we can talk about anything together and I've found purpose for my life. God has called me to baptism very soon, He's called me to teach others about His Love and God's called me to do mission work. I would never go back. I don't miss the person I was but I'm thankful for her, because what happened to me and what I did, and God most of all, led to me to be the person I am today. A girl who follows God and wants to be known as another one of God's fires✝️✝️😊 Edit: its been 5 months since I wrote this and alot has changed, for good. I'm growing deeper on my faith and relationship with God and I've been baptized. I've been saved by His grace and I'm studying the whole Bible in whatever order God calls me to. I started with Romans, read Daniel and am now reading Mark. Letting God guide me through life is so much better than trying to do it on my own.

Thank you Jesus Thank you Jesus!!!!!
I was HORRENDOUSLY attacked by a business associate 7 months ago. This song TRULY reaches my heart. I thank GOD that he gave this song to them. Life is HARD, but walking day-by-day wirh Jesus......the situation doesn't feel so hopeless! I truly thank Father God for this song 😇 It HIT my heart 💜 i Love Y'all 😁 THANK YOU FOR BEING A BLESSING 😇
Thank you, Christ! I embrace my scars: they are a vivid "reflection" of your "grace, mercy, love, provision, protection, and eternal calling." God has been good to me! He has given me chance, after chance! The Lord is good!
There aren’t enough words to actually thank Him for His scars. He died for our sins. Not His, ours!! Praise Him always
Amen
😢Amen and I am worthy in His eyes but feel so unworthy
@ hey what’s going on? Are u ok?
@@melissaphillips4439 Dearest friend, are you meaning me? I am thanking God for you! “He paid a debt he not owe, i owe a debt I could not pay! I needed someone to wash my sins away! And now I sing a brand new song amazing Grace, the whole day Long! Christ Jesus paid a debt that I could never pay!! 🤲❤️🔥💜”
@@melissaphillips4439 I appreciate this so much! Alone after a 22 year marriage to be safe! Missing my fur baby and faced with physical and emotional stressors and no matter what i do as I listen to praise and worship music and pray; the tears just won’t stop. Thank you for caring ❤️🔥🙏🏻💜🥰❤️🫶
I'm 21, 3 years ago I was locked in a psyche ward in jail for a year after being hooked on weed, acid, mushrooms, drinking, porn, and all sorts of unclean things I did in search of fulfillment. I lost my mind and Jesus was the only One I had to call on. I called on Him and He picked me up, cleaned my life and now I have a reason to live. Now I have hope not only for the next life, but I have hopeful ambitions of being a husband and raising a family in the future, making music, and telling others that there's a reason for this whole existence. Hallelujah!
That's an amazing testimony. Brother God will get glory for Himself through you. Be thankful because that means your life will be a blessing to others and will be full of blessings for your joy as well. Thank you for your honesty in your testimony and never stop looking up. Your Redemption has come. Be blessed always
Praying for you! Loves

I was abused in every way as a child, which led to 30 years of crime, drug and alcohol addiction, and inevitably 14 yrs in prison, I hated myself and the world as a whole. I am 39 now and I praise and thank God every morning for my trauma, he was molding me to fulfill my purpose, I'm clean, free, and I am working in the behavior health field helping others make it through hard times. I begged for a servants heart and I surrender daily to his will, in Jesus name Amen 🙏
Oh hell yeah man ♡♡♡ This is the beautiful stuff right here

Brother, you are a living testimony! I thank God for your victories in Him.

13 years of self-harm. Next month I’ll be 5 years clean because of Jesus. I can truly sing this song from the depths of my soul. I used to be ashamed of them, but now I am thankful for my scars. And HIS scars that saved me!! 💜💜

I’m a 23 year old suffering from cancer … it all started on 2019 … I have gone through 2surgeries ,22 cycles of chemotherapy, two radiation therapy, still on treatment … nothing worked on me … but I’m still alive … not because of anything I took nor because of my own strength…. God brought me closer to him … through suffering I came more closer to him… loved him more … learned to ask for his grace everyday …. And his strength is what keeps me going…. If anyone is reading this please know that the lord who delivered me will surely do good things in your life in his perfect time all you have to do is fight in prayer …❤

Wow
It is hard to understand this. I'm sorry that you are going through this. It is amazing that you have a good attitude and have not given up on God and that you are looking at the big picture. I pray that God heals you. Amen
Just got baptized today. Hallelujah! While driving back home, this was the last song to come onto my radio. It's been a long 35 years without him. Love Jesus!
S B hallelujah
I was born with a cleft lip and palate and i have scars on my face my hips and my mouth, this song has helped me discover my worth through christ. thankyou
My 5 year old son was born with a cleft lip and palate. He also has a really big scar in the bend of his elbow from the doctors ripping his skin at birth trying to go a difficult intubation since he was 13 weeks early. He is already starting to question his scars and wants them to go away. I pray he will someday embrace them.
A really close friend who was born with a cleft lip and palate and he’s a Christian he has had so many scars but he’s growing in his faith every day
@@daniellekrawiec7425 it's a long journey, I question god all the time still, but I eventually learnt to embrace myself and go, u know what this is who I am, no scar no story. I pray that your son finds his worth and I hope he knows he is amazing just the way he is. 😊
Hugs

@@godgirl9469 GOD LOVES YOU I was very suicidal then I went to a rally God to all that away
I think of that often. When I'm tired of being sick. God reminds me that Jesus paid it all. They remind me of the times that he carried me. And he will carry me to the finish line. Every breath is a miracle.

Thank you for allowing God to write this song on your hearts so you could share it with the world! I have many, many scars, & at almost 67 it took me a really long time to be able to say Thank You, Lord, for my scars, but I'm so Thankful for His, also, which He received when He was crucified and died on the cross for my sins that I deserve hell for! I pray many, many lost souls will be Born Again In Jesus' Mighty Name when they hear this amazing song!
When I was in a car accident involving my friends, I thought I was gonna die and as I’m stuck in the car I prayed for God to save us, and now I’m here saved by the Lord Almighty! I have physical scars from the accident and it took time to heal both physically and emotionally, but with God I knew nothing was impossible with him. So I thank and praise him for what he’s done for me and everyone! Praise God
Amen 🙏
God bless you in Jesus Name Amen! 🙏🏻❤️
amen, praise God!!!
I’m 5 years and 4 months clean off meth! Survivor of abusive, drug addiction! And I always think of God and need to learn of Jesus. That’s how I feel
As an addict. This song breaks me down, brings me to my knees and humbles me to be the man I know God Invisioned.
Don't give up! Let God help you each step of the way as you are never alone with Christ!
HE is and will carry you through. Let Go and let God
Remember you are LOVED
Praise God❗️🙌🏽🙌🏽Keep believing that anything possible❗️💜🙏🏽🌹
Dakota know that God is right there with you in this situation. He loves and cares about you. Cry out to him and he will hear you and he will deliver you out of this.I know cause I cried out to be delivered out of 10 months of depression,, he was there w ith me the whole time,but was waiting to hear his child cry out to him. There are alot of songs out there about storms in our lifes. Asking God to give you strength and guidence. When you feel weak he is your strength to fight and its his battle ask him to give you what you need.
I just adore all of the testimonials in the comments. HE is so, so good, all the time! May God bless all who read this!

I’m 15 and I got saved 2 weeks ago and I started putting god first in my life after 4 years of self harm and 6 years of depression and I got to the point we’re I had to give it all to god and now I’m so thankful for that choice I made because now I am speaking at churches and schools and more spreading the lords word and how he has changed my life and I’m so thankful for the scars
I know it's been 4 years but I hope since you posted this comment you started spelling God with a capital G because it's important to give him that reverence. He's not "a god". He is God. It's His title. He is The Almighty
Blessed are the poor in spirit: for theirs is the kingdom of heaven.
Blessed are they that mourn: for they shall be comforted.
Blessed are the meek: for they shall inherit the earth.
Blessed are they that hunger and thirst after righteousness: for they shall be filled.
Blessed are the merciful: for they shall obtain mercy.
Blessed are the pure in heart: for they shall see God.
Blessed are the peacemakers: for they shall be called the children of God.
Blessed are they which are persecuted for righteousness’ sake: for theirs is the kingdom of heaven.
Matthew 5:3-10
Amen!
Thank you for those verses
We praise you Almighty King❤
We all have scars, whether they’re on our body or on our souls! Still they remind us of where God rescued us from, they’re a reminder of His faithfulness. But more than that, Christ’s scars are a eternal reminder of God’s Love for us ❤️👏🏼 God bless you guys! Great job, Glory to Him ❤️

This song hits me hard so hard I was sexually assaulted when I was 13 and abused in a relationship later in life I also struggled with suicide thoughts and self harm (which I no longer do) not counting the invisible hurts I have scars inside and out and I am thankful for my scars because they are proof of what God has brought me through and continues to bring me thru on a daily basis. I will continue to give God the glory for all that he has done on my life 🙌🙏 it is because of him my wounds have healed and my scars are proof that he is real
You are healed! He’s here, and He’s with you forever!! 🥰 stay strong for me and keep your eyes upon the Cross!

May God continue to bless you and give you the joy of your salvation!!!!
Amazing...ditto...wanna be friends...
9 years sober in November 2019. My scars I wear proudly. I was physically, mentally, emotionally and sexually abused by my own family. Turned to alcohol and coke and pot. Anything to quell the pain. Until He reaches down and grabbed me. Sober 9 years Nov 2019!! Never give up! Jesus loves you!!!
Praise God 🙌
Praise God. What was meant for evil ,God turned it into good..
Praise God
I was baptized today. I’m thankful for the journey God brought into my life. He is God. I accepted Him into my life when I was 7 and now I’m 13. My life with Jesus is
1000000,0000,00000,00000,00000 times better. I see Him moving though me every day! He has helped me through so much. Christianity is a relationship, not a religion. My relationship with God is priceless. Thank you Jesus, for saving me. Thank you Jesus, for me getting baptized. You’re my God! Heavenly Father, I love you more then anything else. You come F I R S T. You are my Best Friend. Thank you Christ.
Big Judah, I am a Hebrew Israelite, and not a very emotional person at all. I have been following you and Elder Ayual for a very long time now. The Most High woke me up many years ago. I have heard this song and enjoyed it on 99.1fm for a long time now. Today I found it as I was searching for another new video from you. As I listened to it I began to praise God and cry uncontrollably, I began to cry out the words”With a mighty hand God, With a mighty hand, deliver your people Most High, Deliver us with a mighty hand! I could NOT stop crying and thanking him!!! I know that my understanding of deliverance is directly attributed to your masterful learning from The Most High and the Holy Spirit! I thank you for your dedicated obedience to to the Most High! I pray for you all the time! All praises to the Most High, our Deliverer and our precious Elohim!!!!
I am actually crying... Thannkyou Jesus for my scars...
I did too. It's your spirit rising within you!
Me too
me too, thankyou Beloved for all my scars both physical and emotional. I bow down and look at the scars on your feet.
I think the song is thanking JESUS for HIS scars!
Me too
Struggled with depression after loosing one of my daughters. This song uplifts me. I’m going to live a productive life! I’m hella mad , the devil can no longer steal my joy. For God is the fountain head of my joy! And he has come to give me life and to give it abundantly and restore the years the locust has eaten.
I pray everyday that his joy continues to be my strength and depression has no place in my life. As soon as they hear of me, they obey, this is a verse I use whenever I start feeling down.
You are worth it and you matter, you deserve to thrive! That’s what God wants for us.
Amen! I struggled with depression as well but the LORD brought me out, praise His name!!!
God loves you so much. He sent Jesus so that he could be with you. He wants to have a relationship with you and he wants you to love life ❤️
listen honey when Jesus was carrying that cross he was carrying it for you,the beating ,the crown of thorns all for you honey that's LOVE... and no matter what mistakes you have done he came for you .He was scarred because of you
so be happy know that God loves you............................
Amen 🙏🏾 God is the greatest ❤️😫
in the mighty and precious name of Jesus 🙏 I know if we truly believe in the power and blood of Jesus Christ we can do all things through that strength. I believe the Holy Spirit is moving people in such beautiful and tremendous ways, but most certainly in my own personal journey of faith! 🥰 I am moved and have never felt more confident in my heavenly father or my walk with him. Together especially all things can be done through Jesus Christ who strengthens us.
*I always have “ GOD” in my life since I was a child . It gives me strength and comfort listening to theses music. AMEN*
I am old lol middle aged . I am active I workout regulary and excersise . Two months ago I developed a blood clot in my thigh I did not know I had . I was working out it broke free I passed out and the clot traveled to my lungs . I had extensive clots in my lungs . I spent a week and a half in intensive care . Every Dr. said what I had kills most people and Im fortunate to be here . Life is so short perfectally healthy one minute Death bed the other . Jesus is the way the truth and the life and Jesus loves you . I love the message of this song and Im thankful for the scars looking back now 2 months later . Jesus walked with me the whole time and never left my side . My experience though I already had a close relationship with Jesus brought me even closer to him . And again Im thankful for the scars . And I am thankful Jesus endured his scars upon the cross to pay my sin debt and make salvation possible . I love you Jesus thank you for saving me .
About three years ago I was on an operating table to have a painful cyst removed from my head. Exactly one year prior to the day I lost both of my parents in one day with my dad committing suicide. God has brought me through those awful days and you do come out different. As an author I am able to write with a deeper meaning. We all have scars, some are deeper than others and some wider. Psalms 34:17 “The Lord is close to the broken-hearted and saves those who are crushed in spirit”

Isaiah 53:5 KJV
But he was wounded for our transgressions, he was bruised for our iniquities: the chastisement of our peace was upon him; and with his stripes we are healed.
Psalm 30:2 KJV
O Lord my God, I cried unto thee, and thou hast healed me.
I'm 17, having became a child of the Lord God at 15, but during my 6th grade year onwards, I struggled with thoughts of suicide and self harm, it's been a week since I opened up to people close to me, I'm now a junior in high school and...I'm still here, not dead by suicide, I always thought I'd be gone by 2020, but it's 2023 and I'm typing this comment and getting the help I needed, I poured out my heart to the Lord on Wednesday September 13th 2023, the day before I turned 17, I was so hesitant about it but my tears were my way of pouring out my heart to God because He listens in all ways, this song is now a song I hold close to my heart because my emotional scars did/do hurt but I know now God listened to my cries for help, I'm now seeing a counselor and am 3 years suicide free and 2 years self harm free, it hasn't been an easy journey but I know if I cry, God's listening, bless you all, not just I AM THEY, bless you all in these comments willing to discuss your stories. 1:46 makes me wanna cry because, I'm not that suicidal Anna, I'm a washed in the blood Anna. ❤
God bless you and your family in the mighty name of Jesus
Some wounds run deep. They've dug into the depths of your soul and spirit and found a comfortable home there. A home they dont want to leave. Sometimes we lose sight of what it can mean to feel good, to feel healthy and whole. God is so, so great. He is the One who can remove the scars and fill them with a deep soul satisfying peace, a place of love, of joy - of genuine hope. NEVER buy into the lies of the enemy; dont believe you are destined to suffer. God will meet you in those darkest depths that you've been afraid to share with anyone. He knows. He understands every hurt you've felt, every tear you've shed. Every one. And He wants to show you something so much better - a life you were designed for, the life you're meant to live. Seek Him with your whole heart. Then watch Him use your experiences to reach into the hearts of others. Its truly an amazing thing. Just like His almighty and never ending love.
Amen 🙏
Thank u for this.

When I was one week old I had heart surgery. I easily could have died but God saved me. I believe that we are all here to make a difference and I know that if we work hard and if we believe and have faith we will be saved. I am saved. I believe in God. I’m proud to say that I am a Christian✝️ and I believe in God.
FAITH can move mountains. Matthew 17:20.
Be the difference that you want to see in the world. May God guide you and watch over you today and everyday.
❤️✝️
What a friend we hv in Jesus...East to West my shame is gone....
Jesus is King!! God is the greatest!!🦋
These comments touch my soul and I'm thankful this song has touched more people than me.
I really love this song its actually my best now
I used to model in Europe in my early 20s, and at age 37 after 88 days in the hospital I came home with an illeostomy and had 5 more surgeries over those next three years. It’s a miracle to be me now and still alive to be a blessing to my family and friends and strangers to love like Jesus: our perfectly scarred brother 🙏
Just heard this song from an AD. And it hit me in my situation of low self esteem. I AM NOT MY SITUATION!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
Jerry Morris, Jr. amen ♥️ I understand you, be sure that God loves you for who you are!
@@lau6427 amen you are totally right!! ❤❤❤❤🙏🙏🙏🙏🙏🙌🙌🙌🙌🙌
Amen nothing can seperate you and God "For i am convinced that neither death nor life,nor angels nor rulers, nor things present, nor things to come, nor powers, nor anything else in all creation will be able to separate us from the love of God in Christ Jesus our Lord" Romans 8:38
Amen
Life brought me too my knees, that’s where I found Jesus. I’m thankful for the scars🙏🏻
Wow reading these comments and listening to this songreally warms my heart ❤️. Seeing how awesome our God is! Almost three years that God gave me a second chance to live after been shot in the back of my neck and the bullet almost leaving me paralyzed, to having 25 to 30% chance of surviving a c2 to c5 spinal fusion. I promised God with all my heart in tears if he would give me a second chance I would play 🎸 for him at my parents church! And three years later I am there worshipping him with my guitar, after two years of constant physical therapy for my right arm (i was unable to move it due to the damage the bullet did to my nervous system.) But Amen God is good!! I touch that scar every day and thank God for this chance to be able to worship him!
I went through self harms in high schools and I remember when I accepted Christ and stop there where scars I felt ashamed. But my Youth pastor said make it your testimony so I did and God Bless me because you can see those scars but for me there but those scars I am not ashamed I thankful for them because without them I would have given my life to Christ. I hope today we teach theses youth that the scars they have does mean they can not because a son or daughter Christ. He accepts us as we are not as we pretend to be I will never be ashamed what I went through and if It means going through it again to be where I am today I would do it again. I could never Go back because before I had no reason to live now I have every reason to live. So let remember those scars and be thankful for the lord.
A few months ago I was diagnosed with an incurable disease. It’s called lymphedema and causes my legs to swell and can cause disfigurement if not treated. I will have to wear compression on my legs every day for the rest of my life. I have been struggling this week, feeling ugly and worrying about people seeing me like this. Your song just ministered to my soul. I’ve been saying that I want to use my testimony to bring glory to God, but I’ve been battling my mind this week. Thank you so much! 💜🙏🏼
praying for you
You are not ugly!! I suggest the TH-camr “Grace Nova” she shows how you need to keep going. She has been through so much and yet stays true to herself. I’m praying for you! He’s here, so live in Him.
He’s everywhere, so pray anywhere! 😉

Prayers that you will see your beauty. You are beautiful! God made you in his own image. The rain falls on the just and the unjust alike. But God is with you always, and will comfort you if you just receive him. ❤
As a victim of decades of abuse, I don't know if I'll ever have this attitude. I'm still processing things and healing
that’s very valid. you r loved tho. how r u doing ?
Similar. But I tend to always come back to God and then feel defeated again amd get stagnant depressed anxious. It is hard for people like us and that is what judgmental people need to realize. To be kind instead of hurt and threaten. Hope you are doing okay and healing and finding peace and others aren't pressuring you or pitting you in fear daily like they are me. God does love us. Infinite love. You are loved even if you don't realise it. Take care
I feel the same on this subject. Others i've over come but this and anger. I'm newly reborn so god and i are working on me together. Amen
Just know that NOTHING is impossible with God. He loves us more than we can ever imagine. He will bring you through. He gives us beauty for ashes. Please read Isaiah 61:3. God loves you. I will put you and others in my prayers.
So sorry you went through this and can’t imagine the pain and heartache this has caused you. I hope you know this was not your fault but Instead is because someone took their free will and abused that by sinning against you. Please know that God does care and will ultimately hold the people that hurt you accountable. It's so hard to feel and experience God's love when those around us who are supposed to protect, love and help us don't. Still God cares and has a plan to make it right in spite of all the ways others have failed us and the ways we fail and fall short oursevles. God paid the price for all of our sin by coming down to earth and being a perfect sacrifice, allowing himself to be abused to pay the price for all of our sins. Still trying to know and experience this more deeply myself. Will be praying for you on your healing journey..
I have almost two years sober. Thank u Heavenly Father
Kamshia, GOD! YOU delivered me from ALL my battles, scars & difficulties but never change in loving me! Shall remain faithful in following YOU, my Eternal Abba FATHER!
There are two types of believers: Those who struggle and liars.
Forty eight years ago, following my mother's death to a drunk driver, I was a drummer in a rock band into drugs, drinking, and immorality. After a night in jail, someone told me eternal life was the gift of God and I believed in Christ.
I've taught in a Christian university and been a pastor for 37 years. In our church are former heroin addicts and alcoholics. NOTHING is greater than a person who has realized a bit of the mess they are and has met grace! Give me a church full of people who get it.
I will forever be grateful for the One who paid for the sins of His enemies. Can't wait to meet the many of you on here who have been met with grace. Someday, 'round the throne, we will embrace and forever praise the Lamb! STAY FAITHFUL!
Pastor, please forgive me but your bold statement about two different types of believers is not exactly accurate. Read romans 10:9,10 That if thou shalt confess with thy mouth the Lord Jesus, and shalt believe in thine heart that God hath raised him from the dead, thou shalt be saved.
10 For with the heart man believeth unto righteousness; and with the mouth confession is made unto salvation.
The Bible only talks about one kind of believer. And furthermore, what you call your struggles I might call more than a conqueror, victors, a learning experience. I am truly thankful for every battle I have had to walk through, not once did I ever walk alone so they are not mine and I do not consider them struggles at all I choose to see them as God showing me who he is and who I am. Pastor I have lived my life to long as a victim and I am done with that role. I am not called to be a struggler I am called to be more than a conqueror. Matthew 12:36 and 37 talks about watching your words so pastor which is it? Did God call you to struggle or conquer? Believers that choose not to look at their battles as struggles are not liars. Just like you seeing yourself as someone who struggles does not make you any less of a child of God thank you sir for listening to me.
@@Amanda-co1tj Thanks for your comment. It seems you misunderstood my comment.
@@huskerguy5715 then please clarify then your statement seems to be calling God's children a liar if they are not struggling through life. and quite frankly I do not remember reading in my bible where struggling qualifies us as believers. so if I am not understanding your clear statement that says there are two types of believers ones that struggle and liars please enlighten me.
@@Amanda-co1tj I'm sorry you don't understand my statement. It certainly may be my lack of clarity. My statement was tongue-in-cheek to say that all believers struggle.
We all get eternal life by faith in Christ. Following our reception of life, the Apostle Paul then talks about life after we believe in Galatians 5:16 and Romans 7:14-25. The normal Christian life is characterized by struggle since we are still in bodies that battle against the desire of the new person within us. As John writes, If we say we have no sin, we deceive ourselves and the truth is not in us. Sin is ever present. Paul says in Romans 7:22-24 "For I delight in the law of God according to the inward man. But I see another law in my members, warring against the law of my mind, and bringing me into captivity to the law of sin which is in my members. O wretched man that I am! Who will deliver me from this body of death?" He also says that "If Christ is in you, the body is dead because of sin" (Rom. 8:10). He also writes in Gal. 5:17" For the flesh lusts against the Spirit, and the Spirit against the flesh; and these are contrary to one another, so that you do not do the things that you wish."
Do you see? He says as a Christian, we often "do not do the things (we) wish". Paul says that if Christ is in us, our bodies are "dead". He says in Romans 7 that our flesh brings us into "captivity". Struggle is normal. My point was that all Christians struggle if they are honest.
But, while all Christians struggle, that doesn't mean they can't have victory. The Spirit of God can empower our bodies and give us victory (Romans 8:11 and Galatians 5). My life as a believer has been helped greatly from learning from those struggles.
So, since we are still in the flesh, we all have struggles. But while we are in the flesh, we don't have to walk according to the flesh. We can have victory and overcome by the power of the Spirit. God's desire and enabling seeks to lead us to growth and victory through His Spirit.
I hope that helps you understand my point.
I always asked God why I would suffer and I would pray and my situation would get worse eventually I broke down and I realized I needed to get closer to him seek him and build a relationship to him and not just when I needed something from him and he answered my prayers and he healed me and now I understand that I had to go through that so I could seek him and now I look back to where he has delivered me from and I’m never going back and I seek to be closer to him everyday, I love this song it reminds me all victories he’s had in my life
Wow your story was me to the T, may God keep giving you victories in your life!
Deckard yes exactly
Keren Urizar thank you!
Amen.
NGXX92 Amen 🙏👌🏻
I was delivered from opiate addiction. I am thankful for OUR scars. Praise you Lord. Amen.
34 days clean and new beginning a new chapter to my life through Jesus Christ
In my teens and early 20's I was a predator, drug mule, rageful man that went to prison. In the depths of despair and just before I committed a deed that would have landed me in prison for life, God showed up in a miraculous way!! Now just before my 60th birthday, I can say "I am thankful for the scars"!! Without them I would be lost, would not have recognized God's unfailing love for me and would have not received the God loving wife of 35 years, 5 kids and 4 grandkids.... Praise the Almighty!!
Reading about a lot of physical scars. So proud of those who are clean and have returned to Jesus.
Proud also of those dealing with emotional scars, who still trust in God and who have come out of their invisible battles stronger. Some scars are below the surface, where not a lot of people can see. Those scars are also proof of how God took you out of the deep.
The comment section is full of real yet beautiful testimonials. It is so inspiring for me. I know I'm gonna be okay.
30 years of my darkest times almost took me out .. BUT GOD SAVED ME. .FOREVER GOD I AM THANK FUL FOR THE SCARS. THAT ARE REPLACED WITH YOUR LOVE .. I COULD NEVER IMAGINE ONE DAY WITHOUT YOU..
Praise the LORD!!!!! 💝❤💖
I pray for my Mom that she will be put in the right place to care for her thank you Jesus for healing and restoring her health I know you hear my prayers thank you
5 years clean and sober by the grace of God to God be the glory and honour completely clean HALLELUJAH amen to that
I listen to this song when the storms in life get heavy. I never realised what the deeper message was Praise the Lord so many of you found encouragement through this song.
I am a week clean from cutting God has saved me from Death last Sunday I tried to end my life I got prayed for today and was saved from all of Satan's works on me I have a new outlook on life now 🙏and I'm am free
Praise the Lord!!! I am so proud of your success. I struggle with anxiety and depression though our struggles are not the same, remember to call out to Jesus when you do not know what else to do or say. You have this and the devil has no power over you because he was defeated at the cross! 🙏🏽🙏🏽🙏🏽🙏🏽🙏🏽🙏🏽🙏🏽
I cut my rest the other day
Wish I was dead
@@cliffordschmidt4560 why do you feel this why? God does not make mistakes no matter what the devil tries to tell you or anyone else. I am sorry that you are hurting. Jeremiah 29:11, Psalm 91, Psalm 46, Psalm 27
@@cliffordschmidt4560 I'm not sure if you're going to read this, but I'm going to type it anyway (just in case.) God can fix things with a snap of a finger, but sometimes it's not his will. Sometimes, it takes a little while to overcome things. Sometimes all the hurt, and nights spent wondering if it will ever just _stop_ , make you who you're meant to be. Help you to fulfill your purpose that only you can fulfill. I hope this doesn't sound pushy, or judgy, or that you read it with a mean voice, because i didn't mean it in that way at all (but i know i can be very blunt sometimes, sorry if it is 😅.) I just wanted to tell you that it's never too late to wake up and start over at day one (no matter how many times it takes), and that God loves you (and this probably sounds weird coming from a stranger on the internet, but i love you too ☺.) i hope you have a wonderful day/night! 💖
Addiction Will NOT take no more I speak this into my life today!!!
Yes, Lord, Please hear Mario and I stand together believing that you will deliver today!
Amen brother
I stand with you brother! Prayers
Turn to ur higher power and keep coming back! We addicts can get thru this shit of addiction thru our HP!!
Thank You, my Beautiful Lord & King Yeshua. I throw my crown at Your feet my Beloved.👑
I see so many stories of healing. I've known Jesus for 25 years. Yet I'm still hooked on the dope. Lord when is my day? When will my tattered arms be a story of your love? When will I be able to touch the hem of your garment? Lord I've died several times, yet you alone brought me back. Why? For what? When will I be free from this hell? Forgive me for the doubt Jesus. Even so, your will be done.
Your healing day is near 💓
I recently gave my life to God at 15, though I may not been a previous self harmer or anything within drug addiction, but I’ve had my own battles, my own downs in life and after I’ve chosen to give my life I could never be happier, thank you for this song to show everyone has their own battles and own scars even if you can’t see them. ❤️

I Am They
Waking up to a new sunrise
Looking back from the other side
I can see now with open eyes
Darkest water and deepest pain
I wouldn't trade it for anything
'Cause my brokenness brought me to you
And these wounds are a story you'll use
So I'm thankful for the scars
'Cause without them I wouldn't know your heart
And I know they'll always tell of who you are
So forever I am thankful for the scars
Now I'm sending in confidence
With the strength of your faithfulness
And I'm not who I was before
No, I don't have to fear anymore
So I'm thankful for the scars
'Cause without them I wouldn't know your heart
And I know they'll always tell of who you are
So forever I am thankful for the scars
I can see, I can see
How you delivered me
In your hands, in your feet
I found my victory
I can see, I can see
How you delivered me
In your hands, in your feet
I found my victory
I'm thankful for your scars
'Cause without them I wouldn't know your heart
And with my life, I'll tell of who you are
So forever I am thankful
I'm thankful for the scars
'Cause without them I wouldn't know your heart
And I know they'll always tell of who you are
So forever I am thankful for the scars
So forever I am thankful for the scars
Nice job
I love Jesus & thank him always for sharing the scars with his believers, cause without them I don't think we would have a humble heart. I grew up thinking scars were ruthless signs of being a bad guy. I thank God each day now knowing what they really represent.
Thank you!
I'm thankful for your comment
That was nice of you to post the lyrics for everyone. :)
Just one little correction:
On the first line of the second verse, I believe it's "standing in confidence", not "sending in confidence".
LOVE this Song we Need you JESUS SO BAD!! I am tired of Crying these years Hear me JESUS above I Love you and there are So many people that need your help Today I Pray Everyday for All !!! Love you JESUS!!! RECORDING Artist IAN!!!
Thank you Jesus for your ultimate sacrifice on the cross for us all who believe in the gospel

Today is Nov.19, 2022. Last night I took my twin daughters (14yrs) to their first concert! Hearts on Fire 2022(35th year) and I am They played at this event. They sang this song last night, and it was the very first time I'd heard it, and it brought tears to my eyes! Being there, and worshipping with Soo many people is undescribable, and last night 100's of youth&adults got saved last night! Y'all know how amazing that is, right!? Everything about this song is so true, and it has me looking at things A LOT differently then I did before the conference last night. The guest speaker &Pastor was Clayton King, and if you don't know who that is, I recommend you looking him up, bc he is AMAZING! Being there last night with this band and being with my daughters is something I'll never forget. It is forever etched into my memory. And I'll never forget that feeling! *Mark 5:24-35*
#StrongerTogether! #Heartsonfirelive
Also, Clayton King has a new book out called Reborn. I've never read it, but he read ONE page out of it, and it had me wanting to read it! If that tells you anything, then I'd check the book out too! Ok, bye guys! God Bless! ✌️💖🧡

Over 15 years of surgery after surgery to try and help my debilitating headaches. Over 30 surgeries in those 15 years. Today I am stable. 6 years surgery free. Still have debilitating pain but I’m still so thankful... hold on friends this pain will end.
And im glad to be known in christ and that my family is bigger and im known by the powerful king of christ and im forgiven
‘My brokenness broug me to you’ I know you will bring me that peace I long for in every area of my life . The past 7yrs has been challenging mentally and emotionally... I know you re with me every step of the way. I WILL DEFINITELY SEE THE GOODNESS OF YHWH in the land of the living
No more getting paid on Friday and broke on Monday. Even though i hurt my Mom more than I'll ever know she never gave up on me. Serving the Lord for 25 years now but I still deal with the scars. WITH GOD'S HELP I WILL MAKE IT !!!
I am a victim of self-doubt and being scared of my own family. I am very thankful for our scars.. they do tell your personality.. did you fix it? Did you ignore it? My home is now in Christ's hands. I am not afraid of anything (basically) and I love God. He is my savior! Praise God!
I have a lot of scars from my past but i am thankful for those scars because i found Jesus
So excited that we will be covering this song for Celebrate Recovery Church next week. Amazing song that a lot of Christians can relate to
What a great song for CR! Bless your band for helping such a great organization in CR
@@keithforest677 Thank you! God Bless!
This song is so great. I have scars all over from precedures and surgeries I've had my whole life. The Lord has blessed me so much with two separate double lung transplants at 18 and 24.
I had a living donor transplant in 2000. I've had a few surgeries in my life, also. I also have emotional scars from having Cystic Fibrosis from birth and being "different " and so much smaller than other kids. But God has strengthened me in so many ways! Love this song !

I am a breast cancer survivor. I had 7 surgeries in a 2 year period. I am so very thankful for my scars. God used cancer as a blessing.
Amen 😮
It says in his word he thinks about you more than all the grains of sand WOW HE IS FAITHFUL
I saw you in concert in January 2020 and you sang this beautiful song. I played it for my friend the next Saturday, shortly after he witnessed to and comforted a lady who just found out she had cancer. Rick had been fighting cancer for a few months at the time. This song meant so much to him, because it was exactly what was happening to him. He passed away last week. His faith never wavered though it all, and your song helped him be courageous. Please pray for Vivian, his wife of many years. Thank you.
wow It sounds like God used you to encourage him by shring the song too. Keep being Faithful witness of his truth!I
All the testimonies of the comments are beautiful allow God in and he will work he will dwell in you of you let him and he will change you, your mind, heart and soul. I used to be very depressed and I have severe anxiety. I went to a therapist for help be it just wasn't right. I took meds and I still had anxiety it just felt suppressed. Like I could still physically feel the panic attacks but I couldn't express it. I was a mess. Im not denying therapy but what I'm saying here is that it wasn't the right fit. And I started to go with some friends to a church for teens, a more in depth youth group. With every focus on God and everything done for God. I started reading the Bible more I found things wrong with my life and even though I was scared of letting God see my scars and to fix them I finally decided to let him in. I'm clean from self harm, I still have depression but I experience it way less and its effects are more minor and my anxiety is less frequent. I'm new and no longer into other bad habits. God changed my life and through rough times has shown me self confidence and self love. I used to thing self love and self care was selfish. I know otherwise now. I used to think I didn't matter and I was some ugly mistake. Now I know Jesus loves me more than words can say and that I'm made in his image. I thought Jesus died for everyone but me. Then I realized through God's power, When Satan and the other angles disobeyed God sent them out of heaven and created hell for them to dwell. When we disobeyed God sent us out of Eden but he promised salvation. He loves us so much that he sent his perfect son Jesus to die for every sin that has been committed, is being committed and will be committed. Jesus felt everu pain and consequence for every sin. That's why he said "My God, My God, why have you forsaken me." He did that for us. Including me and Including everyone who reads this.
He turned me from a depressed, anxious, shy, suicidal, self hating mess into a loved, calm beautiful, self caring person.
I now have friends, friends who know God too, we can talk about anything together and I've found purpose for my life. God has called me to baptism very soon, He's called me to teach others about His Love and God's called me to do mission work. I would never go back. I don't miss the person I was but I'm thankful for her, because what happened to me and what I did, and God most of all, led to me to be the person I am today.
A girl who follows God and wants to be known as another one of God's fires✝️✝️😊
Edit: its been 5 months since I wrote this and alot has changed, for good. I'm growing deeper on my faith and relationship with God and I've been baptized. I've been saved by His grace and I'm studying the whole Bible in whatever order God calls me to. I started with Romans, read Daniel and am now reading Mark. Letting God guide me through life is so much better than trying to do it on my own.

Thank you Jesus Thank you Jesus!!!!!
Without my scares of the pain of unhealed and healed scares.im greatful for them they brought me to Jesus so he could save me.
In Your Hands, in Your Feet, I found my victory, so forever I’m thankful for the scars.
I was HORRENDOUSLY attacked by a business associate 7 months ago. This song TRULY reaches my heart. I thank GOD that he gave this song to them. Life is HARD, but walking day-by-day wirh Jesus......the situation doesn't feel so hopeless! I truly thank Father God for this song 😇 It HIT my heart 💜 i Love Y'all 😁 THANK YOU FOR BEING A BLESSING 😇
Thank you, Christ! I embrace my scars: they are a vivid "reflection" of your "grace, mercy, love, provision, protection, and eternal calling." God has been good to me! He has given me chance, after chance! The Lord is good!
I want to go back to cutting to help with my pain... I lost a brother and a child in the same night but thanks to God I am clean
Back here in 2023….looking back 4 yrs….so I’m SO THANKFUL FOR THE SCARS…trusting Jesus even more HE is always faithful, never leaves my side.
