Thank you Pastor Laurie , i was truly blessed with this teaching 🙏 I want to figure out how to possibly send you a letter ... if that would be ok ?? Thank you for blessing me ( and so many others I’m sure !! ) as I’ve watched almost all of your videos . Thank you again and I Praise & Thank Our Savior for putting you in my path 🙏🤗
Thank you for sharing your pain with us...a friend just lost their baby after carrying him to full term only to leave the hospital with empty arms. Wanting them to know I am so sorry for their loss, this has helped me understand that there are no words that will stop their pain. I can only grieve with and for their loss and pray for Holy Spirit to comfort and give them the strength to carry on day by day. I cannot imagine your pain but I do care and ask God to carry you and your family every second of every day. 🕊
I definitely have been blessed! I am Handicapped. I know, I am here because he saved my life in two ways. First physically and brought him even in Spiritally. I was always spiritual, very much, but even more so! God bless.
What a great teaching. One of my favorites. My husband dead 4 weeks ago. I ask why. I ask to take the pain away. I prayed today to show me how and where to help other widows. To help us with our loneliness.
I can't wait to get his Bible for Beginners... I thirst for being a better Man.... Thanks for All You Guys do Greg... My condolences about your loved one...❤️God Bless You Brother!
Loss of a child youre never over it, you will always miss them, thank God Gregs child was a christian, Life after death is for real, my first friend I lost I was 12 she had just turned 13.
I don't know how you feel. I feel for you. My Daddy died. I will never get over it until I see him.. once he passed, our family was never the same. Myself, my mother and Daddy are all Christians. My sister are not. I still creo about my Daddy.
My cousin was a sunday school teacher for 2 years and she was married she tried to do the foster adopt, the mother got her act together so she didnt get to keep the little ones, her husband couldnt have kids and she wanted them so bad and was willing to adopt, her job started getting on her when she did have the little ones in her care that she was not spending enough time at work, shortly after she got stomach cancer and was taken at 38, which is young to go home to be with the Lord, I have always felt she went to help with all the babies in heaven. At least I know where she is at. Her twin is a nurse still here. I can just feel the twins heart break and when my cousin had called me before surgery I didnt call her back, I got home from work late and didnt want to wake her not knowing she was having surgery the next day and would be dieing withing 2 weeks after surgery. Knowing she is in heaven and taking care of all those babies the joy on her face I could only imagine.
My beloved beautiful son Armoniluciano’ was murdered July 7/21 he was 28 years old. I found him bleeding to death on the bathroom floor… I was beyond shocked and a single mom the entire time. What an amazing man The Lord lead me have for a moment… My boy mom loves you for ever thank you for being in my life you are and still a precious treasure to me!! 😢😢😢😢😢😢😢
Pastor Greg I learn from you. I lost my 24 yr old daughter and her companion. We do not get over it, however it softens. It’s out of order and we grieve but not without hope. Saying less is more and as time goes on, people ask less but the pain remains.
Pastor Greg is a phenomenal preacher. Thank you for sharing the wisdom that grew out of so much pain in your life. My son went to heaven 15 mos ago. Your wise words have been a branch that has helped keep me afloat. I still struggle a lot but knowing that there’s more than what I can see does help. I’m not a biblical character, just a small tool in God’s toolbox, praying for strength to continue. I’m so craving that reunion with my son.
This blessed me. My late husband used to love listening to your ministry. He passed away in 2015 and I have always been so encouraged by the messages. Thank you so much for your faithfulness I am praying for the family
This was an unbelievably wonderful message. Thank you for sharing your heart. It encourages me in my life today. Thank you for allowing the good Lord to use you to honor and glorify Him.
I have disabilities and God saved me. I have great pain but I keep praying. I am going back to College and my career. Without God, I would not be able to do this.
Especially moving for me, lost my Christopher at 36. That was a pain in my life that I did not think I could live through. Thank you Jesus for being my rock. No one knew what to do to help me. I talked to my Lord day and night. I was given proof that my son was in Heaven. It still took a long time to feel better, but I knew if I could survive the death of my son, I could get through anything. God Bless you Pastor Laurie. I do know your pain!
I'm so sorry pastor Greg about your sweet son. Nothing would seem to compare to this pain. I have a beautiful daughter who's 11. God has sure blessed you with courage and strength to keep ministering to us all. Thank you for all you do for us. We love you and your family
I lost my youngest daughter who was 24 years old and my twin sister in 2020. It is a pain that never goes away but I am trusting in God and I know that I will see them again. Thank God for pastor Greg. ✝️🙏
Hey guys it's 2024 now. Jan 2020 my dad died from complications from an auto accident. Then Dec 2020 my eldest bro died when a speeding vehicle struck him. People at church told my mom with Christ in the vessel she could smile at the storm. Or this gem, everyone has to die some day. No one had compassion for her losing a husband after 54 yrs of marriage. Or losing her 1st born child. I agree with you pastor. We do have the Lord but it doesn't make the hurt and sorrow magically disappear. People need to have more compassion instead of throwing out scriptures as if others don't know it. And just be a comfort even in their silence. Blessings 🙏
Thank you so much for your testimony to God's faithfulness. Your ministry is such a blessing to me. I pray God will continue to use you in His service . God Bless you.
Grandma Stella and her biscuits has me hungry at 3:00 a.m. in the morning. I'll never forget your story Pastor Greg Laurie. That's how I know your granddaughter's named after Grandma Stella. March 2, 2023.❤️☝️😎✝️🛐👑🦀💦 I was baptized at Pirates Cove in 76 at 14 years old.
Hi Pastor Gregg. Thank you. 2 months ago I lost my 4 year old son and heartbroken doesn’t come close to what I’m feeling. I’ve listened to your talk a number of times now and it helps to listen to you because you ‘get it’. Of course it doesn’t change anything, but I agree with you about so many things you share here. It’s true that I’ll never recover, but will continue to find our new normal. I’m also really sorry for your loss too. God is the comforter and I pray for your comfort as I do my own. I know this talk will have been amongst the most difficult. But it’s so right that you delivered it faithfully. It’s helped me. Again, thank you and God bless
Ran into a friend who is going thru a nasty divorce, within the church, all I said was how are you adjusting and that I am praying for you. Sometimes that is the best thing, I am praying for you.
I will pray for you. I just lost my mother. I've lost a fiance, I pray I never have to experience the loss of one of my boys. I lost my wife because of my drugs use. I lost my fiancé from overdose. 3 houses. Now, my mother. But, he saved me! Brought me out of 40 years of addiction, 5 or 6 totaled cars, jails, rehabs, to now. I'm almost ready for my testimony.
Wow. So heartbreaking, Pastor Greg. Thank you for sharing your incredibly painful personal story. May God bring inner peace and strength to you and your family, during those times when grief creeps into your heart. Thank you for soldiering on, with Jesus beside you and with you all.
My daughter went home in 1995. It is hard! I know where she is. I know she is with Jesus. If I didnt know this I doubt I would have handled it. Thank you God!
Hardships are HARD. God is there through good times and Hard times. He will never leave us or forsaken us. This is where Faith comes in. God walk with us all the days if our life.
I love how Greg is so real. This is a hard topic. The things that people have told him to "try" and make him feel better, I'm sure so many have heard those same things. I might have said similar things without knowing it wasn't helpful at all. It's hard to understand what you have not experienced. I need to be more heavenly-minded. The end goal of everything is, to God be the glory. I pray i remember that. We are weak and we need God. I really love that they showed the audience during his message about losing a child. You could tell it really resonated with people. It was powerful. Thank you Greg, you are a wonderful example of a true believer, even through the roughest/toughest times. Thank you
Thank you for this. I lost my future spouse just weeks ago. I feel many of the same emotions as he was young and healthy and it was unexpected. I give you my 's deepest sympathies for your loss but God placed you in my way to help comfort me in my time of loss. God bless you and your family.
Thank you for this sermon thank you that I could hear it and I could see it thank you for Greg laurie knowledge and wisdom bless you all who reads this
pastor Laurie so sorry for your loss. I recently found you on you tube and have been so encouraged just hearing your sermons. I would have never thought you experienced such a tragic loss. Hearing sermons on heaven help me to not be afraid of what's happening in our world and fills my mind with Gods goodness and hope.
Still praying for you, Cathe and your family! Pastors and pastors wives are ordinary people with extraordinary callings on their lives!! We as congregants need to pray for our Pastors and their wives and ask them what we can do for them. I am so grateful that you answered your calling! To keep a strong church we need to take care of our leaders and your families as they take care of us!! Again thank you and Cathe for answering your call!! On a personal note we lost a son 40 years ago the loss affected not only my son it affected my other 4 children and the son after we lost him. His siblings talk to their younger brother about him to this day. My husband gave me 6 roses for each of our children. Today June 16th would have been my 50th wedding anniversary, the love of my life went home 5 years what you said about grieving people is so right. I miss the rose he used to give me. I have had some strange remarks from Christians also! You never get over the pain you just learn to live through it! Praying for you as always. 🙏❤🙏
It is hard for me not to angry with God about Christopher. You have the strength you need to lead others always. You are a comfort to Thousands and thousands every time you speak. Well done, His good and faithful servant.
God Bless you Pastor. Thank you for this I lost my son recently to , I still cannot talk about it and feel noone gets it , thank you for shareing, you and your family are in my prayers 💕💕
I CAN RELATE, I LOST MY 22 YEAR OLD DAUGHTER SHE SANG IN CHURCH, THE LOSS OF A CHILD IS NEVER EASY,GREG LAURIE I LOVE YOUR PREACHING I'VE HEARD YOU FOR YEARS, THANK YOU MY DAUGHTER ENTERED ETERNITY SHE WAS DEDICATED TO THE LORD AS A BABY.😥😥😥❤❤❤💔💔💔💔
This really bless me I recently loss my only child Thaddeus on June 15,2022. 😥 Thank you so much for sharing….May God continue to use and bless you.& your family.🙏🏾❤️🙏🏾
I am so sorry that you lost your only child, Thaddeus. I know your pain as I also lost my only child, a 36 year old daughter named Loni who went to heaven in August 2021. She died from stage 4 cancer. There is an organization called Alive Alone whose members are those who only child has passed away. I think the website is currently being revamped…, but I just felt compelled to let you know about it. It should be back up sometime next month from what so hear. I pray 🙏 that the Lord comforts you in your grief. God bless you. ❤
What an amazing a word! I plan to pass this unto my husband and sons. My heart is full and overflowing with the truth of God's word. Blessings Pastor Greg and family!
This subject was just addressed in a scene from the chosen with young James, Jesus explained why he wasn’t healing him bc through the pain he still praised God, it was beautiful
I'm so sorry. My heart hurts for your family and the lives who loved Christopher. My daughter lost her first son the day after he was born. The pain was devastating. Our church family was wonderful, and they used their words wisely, but some stumbled all over those words, and I would just hug them and love them. I'm sure the words "he was the most beautiful baby" were said 100 times. Sometimes when you can see them struggle with what to say, we have to show a little grace. He would be 18 now and we talk about him every day. 😊
I just imagine the folks that have died before that were Christians and just think.."they've seen Jesus....and wonder what was that like for them?" To imagine my Dad seeing Jesus now and he has talked to Him.....hes seen paradise. It just amazes me.
Greg , companion animals are definitely up there with loss , the grief someone experiences with the loss of a beloved companion animal is no different than loosing a sister , brother , father or mother . Grief is grief .
It’s a blessing to have a heart that loves and mourns for people. How blessed are Christians who love everyone and feels pain for the dying, for the hurting, for the lost, and for everyone and you want people to have the security and love of Jesus but know it won’t happen. How blessed is it to know because God gave you a heart of flesh He will always be near because you always need His comfort and you love with His heart?
Thank you. Every question I had while I listened you answered shortly after I asked. Im so sorry for your loss and I thank you from the bottom of my heart for sharing Christopher with me and helping me to understand what I am going through. You have been a blessing. Thank you.
I also berried my son before his time should be. Everything you preach specially with what was said to me etc from others was how I felt. And one day I look forward to seeing him again when the lord returns or when I die. Thanks for sharing the word and your feelings as well. I appreciate it the hope and encouragement as well
I am sorry you lost your son. I lost my daughter and God pointed me to a scripture that talked about accidents. She was killed walking by a hit and run driver that they never caught. I remember still wanting to know where she is and who she's hanging out with . Like I had any right to know. 😅
Pastor Greg, and the Laurie family. I'm a new listener, didn't know about your son Christopher. So very sorry. I understand in a way, that we lost my oldest brother, the 1st born, Aug 1987. I was 15 yrs old. He was 26.
Thank you for this message pastor I lost my son feb/ 19 /22 and I'm still in deep brokenness he was my firstborn he was just getting his life together . 😭😭 I've always talked to him about the Lord but he was always so angry about his sister dying she was only six months and three days old she was born with certain issues and the Lord took her I'm hoping and praying that he cried out to the Lord before he passed. This is the worst I've lost a daughter and a son and it doesn't get easier 😭
I have learned thru the many years of walking with the Lord when you become a bigger threat to Satan's kingdom the more the Christian gets attacked. The stronger the Christian gets and gets closer to the Lord Jesus the stronger the attacks and the stronger the demon come after you. But rejoice cuz Jesus that lives within you is over them for greater is he thats in you than the one thats in the world.....
I agreed with all but one thing you taught . You said we're all going to die but the bible clearly states that there is a generation that will pass from death to life ~~Eternally. We will not die a physical death because we are taken out caught up with the Lord So correction.. We will not all die.☮️🙏
About 1983 I heard Raul Ries say he had the gift of healing, but he didnt want to use it, if I heard him correct why? We know only Jesus can heal you, but some have the gift to pray over people and they get healed. If I heard him correct I wonder why he didnt want to use the gift? I dont know where I heard him say it, this is what I remember.
Please pray for me. Somehow TH-cam is blocking all of my comments on all channels. I don't verbally abuse anyone but I do mention being a Christian sometimes. This is freaking me out
I bet in heaven they they give everything freely because God supplies everything and knows every need and want. There’s no fear of death because you don’t die. What if we really believed that here? You would be happy to have your life threatened because you already know. You want to take my well? Sure, fine take it because I know God has another one for me. You want what I have? Take it because you can’t take my most valued possession but if you want Him He wants you too.
There are 3 basic sources of religious energy which are the Holy Spirit, religious spirits, and soul power. During times of no outpouring of the Holy Spirit (as in this day and time) it is extremely rare to find someone speaking by the anointing of the Holy Spirit, but it is quite commonplace for religious people to have the anointing of a religious spirit, and/or to run on soul power. Religious spirits and religious soul power seek to mimic the Holy Spirit, and sometimes they can be very convincing with their 'Do-Gooder' persona and their busy 'good works' agendas. It has all to do with manipulation and control. Sometimes soul power can be a good thing, as in construction trades, mechanical trades, sports, music, art, chess, math, science, engineering, higher learning, anything that requires special talent and ability. But religious soul power is pretty much always exploited by religious spirits, which is what is going on with all of these TH-cam religionists who are being driven by religious spirits to be obsessed to post their worthless videos (TH-cam was concocted by the kingdom of darkness overlords [aka fallen angels/principalities] as a forum for religious spirits to manifest through human mouthpieces for the purpose of making a parody of prophetic ministry, and of Christianity in general, and it is working famously well for them). Religious soul power sometimes drifts over into witchcraft which is also always exploited by religious spirits. Psychic phenomenon can be a form of witchcraft ( alsoTarot cards, 'law of attraction,' mind over matter phenomenon, etc.). Simon Magus of Acts 8:9-24 is an example of that. The Philippian girl of Acts 16 beginning with verse 16 is an example of how a religious spirit manifests through a human mouthpiece, as in what is going on with all of these TH-cam religionists (i.e. teachers, so-called 'prophets,' and other assorted self-appointed 'Do-Gooders' who are doing their own thing in the Lord's name, some of whom are making a lot of money doing it). Bear in mind that everything the Philippian girl said was 100% correct and was 100% the truth, but it was a religious spirit speaking through her. Politics is actually a lot of people's religion, and politicians and their followers are often targeted by religious spirits. There are a lot of spiritually defunct false teachers and false prophets whose credibility is dependent on their ranting about politics. TH-cam is awash with them. If they didn't rant about politics nobody would pay much attention to anything they have to say. If you decide to look up the accounts of Simon Magus and the Philippian girl, I suggest you read those sections of scripture in the King James Version.
Who are you to say what someone should say to you, maybe that’s all they know what to say, Shawn on you, I enjoy your preaching , but your wrong on this.

Thanks for this message pastor Laurie
Wow. So heartbreaking, Pastor Greg. Thank you for sharing your incredibly painful personal story. May God bring inner peace and strength to you and your family, during those times when grief creeps into your heart. Thank you for soldiering on, with Jesus beside you and with you all.
Great sermon, thank you GOD for Greg's ability to teach us YOUR WORD
This was spot on. Words people say meant in support cut like a knife. I'm glad I heard this today
My daughter went home in 1995. It is hard! I know where she is. I know she is with Jesus. If I didnt know this I doubt I would have handled it. Thank you God!
God bless you 🌸
Jesus thank you for Greg to communicate the message for all of us who is in pain and find comfort with this message🙏🏻
WOW!! 🤯 THAT, was a powerful message!!
The first half was REAL. I mean, *_REAL!!_*
Straight-up honesty. 👏👏🙏🙏
Sorry for you and all of your family's loss Sir! And also thank you for your New Beginners Bible. I appreciate your teachings. Have a good day!
Thank you Greg
Hardships are HARD. God is there through good times and Hard times. He will never leave us or forsaken us. This is where Faith comes in. God walk with us all the days if our life.
This is so real 😢 I don't have the words 😢
I love how Greg is so real. This is a hard topic. The things that people have told him to "try" and make him feel better, I'm sure so many have heard those same things. I might have said similar things without knowing it wasn't helpful at all. It's hard to understand what you have not experienced.
I need to be more heavenly-minded.
The end goal of everything is, to God be the glory. I pray i remember that.
We are weak and we need God.
I really love that they showed the audience during his message about losing a child. You could tell it really resonated with people. It was powerful. Thank you Greg, you are a wonderful example of a true believer, even through the roughest/toughest times. Thank you
Thank you for this. I lost my future spouse just weeks ago. I feel many of the same emotions as he was young and healthy and it was unexpected. I give you my 's deepest sympathies for your loss but God placed you in my way to help comfort me in my time of loss. God bless you and your family.
God bless you Randi 💔🙏

We as congregants need to pray for our Pastors and their wives and ask them what we can do for them. I am so grateful that you answered your calling! To keep a strong church we need to take care of our leaders and your families as they take care of us!! Again thank you and Cathe for answering your call!! On a personal note we lost a son 40 years ago the loss affected not only my son it affected my other 4 children and the son after we lost him. His siblings talk to their younger brother about him to this day. My husband gave me 6 roses for each of our children. Today June 16th would have been my 50th wedding anniversary, the love of my life went home 5 years what you said about grieving people is so right. I miss the rose he used to give me. I have had some strange remarks from Christians also! You never get over the pain you just learn to live through it! Praying for you as always. 🙏❤🙏
It is hard for me not to angry with God about Christopher. You have the strength you need to lead others always. You are a comfort to Thousands and thousands every time you speak. Well done, His good and faithful servant.

God bless you 😔💔🙏
I am so sorry that you lost your only child, Thaddeus. I know your pain as I also lost my only child, a 36 year old daughter named Loni who went to heaven in August 2021. She died from stage 4 cancer. There is an organization called Alive Alone whose members are those who only child has passed away. I think the website is currently being revamped…, but I just felt compelled to let you know about it. It should be back up sometime next month from what so hear. I pray 🙏 that the Lord comforts you in your grief. God bless you. ❤
What an amazing a word! I plan to pass this unto my husband and sons. My heart is full and overflowing with the truth of God's word. Blessings Pastor Greg and family!
I lost my son in 2018. Sorry for your loss.
Repent and believe in Jesus Christ our Lord and savior today.
Stop secret sinning.
Jesus Saves
Jesus saves is not a comfort at the moment of my son’s horrific death!!! Please do your research before speaking…
Excellent sermon; thanks for you blessings.
Let the Lord 🙏 💔🎹☮️❤️, move your. 2nd Chronicles 7:14, if my people will seek my face, and turn away from their ways, I will heal their land..
This subject was just addressed in a scene from the chosen with young James, Jesus explained why he wasn’t healing him bc through the pain he still praised God, it was beautiful
I'm so sorry. My heart hurts for your family and the lives who loved Christopher.
My daughter lost her first son the day after he was born. The pain was devastating. Our church family was wonderful, and they used their words wisely, but some stumbled all over those words, and I would just hug them and love them. I'm sure the words "he was the most beautiful baby" were said 100 times. Sometimes when you can see them struggle with what to say, we have to show a little grace. He would be 18 now and we talk about him every day. 😊
I just imagine the folks that have died before that were Christians and just think.."they've seen Jesus....and wonder what was that like for them?" To imagine my Dad seeing Jesus now and he has talked to Him.....hes seen paradise. It just amazes me.
I know the feeling of the pain of losing a child. She was a twin, but my Whitney did survive. But the pain is there.
Greg , companion animals are definitely up there with loss , the grief someone experiences with the loss of a beloved companion animal is no different than loosing a sister , brother , father or mother . Grief is grief .
It’s a blessing to have a heart that loves and mourns for people. How blessed are Christians who love everyone and feels pain for the dying, for the hurting, for the lost, and for everyone and you want people to have the security and love of Jesus but know it won’t happen. How blessed is it to know because God gave you a heart of flesh He will always be near because you always need His comfort and you love with His heart?
Thank you. Every question I had while I listened you answered shortly after I asked. Im so sorry for your loss and I thank you from the bottom of my heart for sharing Christopher with me and helping me to understand what I am going through. You have been a blessing. Thank you.
I also berried my son before his time should be. Everything you preach specially with what was said to me etc from others was how I felt. And one day I look forward to seeing him again when the lord returns or when I die. Thanks for sharing the word and your feelings as well. I appreciate it the hope and encouragement as well
God bless you Phil 💙💔😪
Beautiful sermon thank you Pastor Greg God bless you and your family
I'm so sorry for the loss of your son 🥀🥀🥀 you and your wife and your family are in my prayers
I am sorry you lost your son. I lost my daughter and God pointed me to a scripture that talked about accidents. She was killed walking by a hit and run driver that they never caught. I remember still wanting to know where she is and who she's hanging out with . Like I had any right to know. 😅
I been there several times with family members but with a child and a spouse especially when shes was so close but my strength comes from the Lord.
Yeah…. Me 2
👏
Pastor Greg, and the Laurie family. I'm a new listener, didn't know about your son Christopher. So very sorry. I understand in a way, that we lost my oldest brother, the 1st born, Aug 1987. I was 15 yrs old. He was 26.
Thank you for this message pastor I lost my son feb/ 19 /22 and I'm still in deep brokenness he was my firstborn he was just getting his life together . 😭😭 I've always talked to him about the Lord but he was always so angry about his sister dying she was only six months and three days old she was born with certain issues and the Lord took her I'm hoping and praying that he cried out to the Lord before he passed. This is the worst I've lost a daughter and a son and it doesn't get easier 😭
I have learned thru the many years of walking with the Lord when you become a bigger threat to Satan's kingdom the more the Christian gets attacked. The stronger the Christian gets and gets closer to the Lord Jesus the stronger the attacks and the stronger the demon come after you. But rejoice cuz Jesus that lives within you is over them for greater is he thats in you than the one thats in the world.....
Or just a hug
I agreed with all but one thing you taught .
You said we're all going to die but the bible clearly states that there is a generation that will pass from death to life
~~Eternally.
We will not die a physical death because we are taken out caught up with the Lord
So correction.. We will not all die.☮️🙏
Sermon... 2008
My 12 year old daughter has a fever. Can someone please pray for Annie?
Is she ok?
About 1983 I heard Raul Ries say he had the gift of healing, but he didnt want to use it, if I heard him correct why? We know only Jesus can heal you, but some have the gift to pray over people and they get healed. If I heard him correct I wonder why he didnt want to use the gift? I dont know where I heard him say it, this is what I remember.
i love watching but these ads are very inappropriate and inserted at the wrong time.. I mean really DURING PRAYER???
Please pray for me. Somehow TH-cam is blocking all of my comments on all channels. I don't verbally abuse anyone but I do mention being a Christian sometimes. This is freaking me out
My question is will I still be my son’s mom in heaven?
Hi I received a comment from Pastor Laurie how do I know it was him not a false comment to give a donation
I had lost a baby! This lady said to me once you loose weight you will have a baby. People do not think.
Angelbear those were cruel words they said. God bless you 💕😔
I bet in heaven they they give everything freely because God supplies everything and knows every need and want. There’s no fear of death because you don’t die.
What if we really believed that here?
You would be happy to have your life threatened because you already know. You want to take my well? Sure, fine take it because I know God has another one for me. You want what I have? Take it because you can’t take my most valued possession but if you want Him He wants you too.
7 haters gave Greg a staff
Watch JESUS REVOLUTION 🎥🎭🍿🍫🥤😋💦 FIVE STARS ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ TRUE STORY well written ❤️☝️😎✝️🛐👑
You don’t have anything for us here in England United Kingdom 🇬🇧 we can’t get them, you said that which is descusting
What do you mean?
There are 3 basic sources of religious energy which are the Holy Spirit, religious spirits, and soul power. During times of no outpouring of the Holy Spirit (as in this day and time) it is extremely rare to find someone speaking by the anointing of the Holy Spirit, but it is quite commonplace for religious people to have the anointing of a religious spirit, and/or to run on soul power.
Religious spirits and religious soul power seek to mimic the Holy Spirit, and sometimes they can be very convincing with their 'Do-Gooder' persona and their busy 'good works' agendas. It has all to do with manipulation and control.
Sometimes soul power can be a good thing, as in construction trades, mechanical trades, sports, music, art, chess, math, science, engineering, higher learning, anything that requires special talent and ability. But religious soul power is pretty much always exploited by religious spirits, which is what is going on with all of these TH-cam religionists who are being driven by religious spirits to be obsessed to post their worthless videos (TH-cam was concocted by the kingdom of darkness overlords [aka fallen angels/principalities] as a forum for religious spirits to manifest through human mouthpieces for the purpose of making a parody of prophetic ministry, and of Christianity in general, and it is working famously well for them).
Religious soul power sometimes drifts over into witchcraft which is also always exploited by religious spirits. Psychic phenomenon can be a form of witchcraft ( alsoTarot cards, 'law of attraction,' mind over matter phenomenon, etc.). Simon Magus of Acts 8:9-24 is an example of that.
The Philippian girl of Acts 16 beginning with verse 16 is an example of how a religious spirit manifests through a human mouthpiece, as in what is going on with all of these TH-cam religionists (i.e. teachers, so-called 'prophets,' and other assorted self-appointed 'Do-Gooders' who are doing their own thing in the Lord's name, some of whom are making a lot of money doing it). Bear in mind that everything the Philippian girl said was 100% correct and was 100% the truth, but it was a religious spirit speaking through her.
Politics is actually a lot of people's religion, and politicians and their followers are often targeted by religious spirits. There are a lot of spiritually defunct false teachers and false prophets whose credibility is dependent on their ranting about politics. TH-cam is awash with them. If they didn't rant about politics nobody would pay much attention to anything they have to say.
If you decide to look up the accounts of Simon Magus and the Philippian girl, I suggest you read those sections of scripture in the King James Version.
Who are you to say what someone should say to you, maybe that’s all they know what to say, Shawn on you, I enjoy your preaching , but your wrong on this.
Beautiful sermon loved it all!! God bless amen!!🙏 ❤
