Amen brother. My storm is loneliness, feeling that I’m always losing close friends due to moving or other situations. Took it to God last night in tears. I know he is faithful. Please ask him to fill my heart with thanksgiving through the moments where self pity tries to creep in. The enemy will have no stronghold in this freed soul.
Same brother but imma tell you what God told me bro Isaiah 66:13 and 2 Corinthians 1:3 -5, even in our affliction he comforts us he sees you and he's right there holding you he's your true love though we do wish for companionship he's the true companion ❤️🙏🏿
May you always find faith and peace in your moments of loneliness. Focus on your inner self worth instead of filling loneliness from external factors. God is always with you ❤
I feel this same way. Loneliness and isolation. My parents recently sold my childhood home before I graduated from college and I now live and work in a place I don’t want to be at all. There is no faith community, no friends, and the nearest city is 2 hours away. I struggle so much to be here.
@abby31415 Praying for you and your journey 🙏 Do not be afraid-I am with you! I am your God-let nothing terrify you! I will make you strong and help you; I will protect you and save you. Isaiah 41:10 Also read Psalm 23 ❤️
my storm is my fear of the unknown. i’m letting my fears determine what i do with each and every day of my life. I don’t want to be afraid anymore. I want to go out knowing no matter what happens i’ll have God right there with me.
I have been getting a lot of storms in the form of sexual temptation, anxiety and potential depression. I've given in to temptations before, but if I take any of those storms to Jesus, I know I will feel better. Thank you for this video, Alex.
Thank you for this video, my storm is allowing myself to fall into sexual temptation, I know that I can’t do it alone so I am gonna give it to the one who can overcome it, Jesus I pray that you direct me on the path away from this sin I know I can’t do it alone and that I can only do it through you. You are my God and my Savior I love you so much Yeshua I pray this in your mighty name
Amen, my storm is prideful lust, I let my flesh put me in that storm by neglecting the temple of God that i am. I had hurt people instead of being a blessing for them. I was a stumbling block for my sisters instead of keep being a example for them. Ngl I want to die so I will stop having the option to walk by the flesh and only have to option to walk by the spirit, but I remember that it’s for my sanctification, the development of my love for Him and y’all that i still have that flesh. Pray for me, pray that imma restart move according to the freedom we have in Him, pray that I stay still waiting on Him. Thanks in advance, God bless y’all and u Nick
"What storm am I in right now, that I need to take to Jesus?" I think I am in a storm of getting distracted by worldy things, desires. I am learning to let go of worldly things and follow Christ faithfully every day. Reading my word more everyday, carrying my cross daily everyday, talking to God everyday, praying. Living a life that is pleasing and glorifying to God, and doing His will. Amen. God bless you Alex and Lokelani and your family, as well as all of you my brothers and sisters in Christ. 😇🙏🏻❤️✝️
My storm is the fear of being successful. I allow my fear of doing the things I feel is right stop me and guides me into doing negative things. I fall into sin by choice because I fear I am too far gone into the wrong path. I experience failure until I have to “crawl” back to the word of God. I have lost relationships, guidance, loved ones, my connection with God, and so much more.
We are saved by grace of Christ! Please pray for me and my children! I’m a sinner in need of Christ!! I trust in God and keep faith even as I struggle to take care of my children and myself. As a single mother things are so hard on me. Both of my sons are autistic I’m overwhelmed. God please hear my prayers. I’m constantly struggling to buy groceries and constantly struggling to pay rent and now that I’m home schooling my sons I’m struggling to buy their school supplies. I’m so ashamed and overwhelmed so please be kind. I choose to have faith over fear as christians that’s all we can do. No matter your struggle, we can turn to God. He knows us personally and can give us strength to overcome our challenges. Heavenly and merciful Father, I come before your glorious throne today, in humble adoration please help me overcome my struggles and my constant fear of homelessness. Walking with faith is all I can do! Please pray for me prayers are all I need. ❤
God bless these people. Look into their hearts and soul. And remember that all of us are your children. And we need your help your guidance. Please have mercy on us. In Jesus name i pray amen.
Hi Daniel, I’m praying that God show you His light. His path is narrow, but in it His is the brightest. Paul says that during the trials, we are to sing and dance with Joy. James says the same. Let us lift our spirits and God will make things as He wants. I’m praying that the God of Abraham, Jacob & Isaac strengthen you and lift your Spirit. In Jesus name. He lives inside you, so do not forget that His power has already overcome darkness!! Take the storm to Him!!
The storm I am in right now is trying to distance myself from the people who act religious but denies the power that makes them holy. It’s hard because some of them are mine own siblings.. but I believe this storm won’t win either ❤.
My storm has been doubt. My mind is filled with doubt when ever I get closer to God. I have anxiety over my doubt and it hurts a lot. It's currently 5.03 am where I am. And I woke up from a doubtful nightmare. I'm glad I found this video. Thankyou. May God bless you.
Amen, my storm is knowing what I’m supposed to do for the Lord but not doing it. Failing as a servant. It’s sad, but I know the walk with God is not a race. He is with me all the time and will stay with me, protect me and constantly find ways for me to go back to him. Amen
Im struggling with a lot of sexual temptation. im 15 was introduced to pornography at age 12. i once got over this temptation but fell back into it after being alone with my grandparents for 3 weeks meaning i was more alone then with them anyway. I fell back into that whole and seem to not be able to really come back from it. i wont say all my storms here but i want to thank the community and Alex for the guidance and support that i see.
There is salvation my bro, I was there too! Keep your eyes on him, focus on him! When you’re tempted, close your eyes and hear his voice. He is calling for you! You got this !!
Praying for you! I have the same struggle but any sin God has forgiven us from he can also deliverance us from. There is freedom in the cross, keep striving!
open up to your parents about it. I promise you're not going to be able to do it all on your own. Tell ur parents about it! you are so young so this is a great thing to nip in the bud so it doesn't grow any longer. Praying for your freedom
My storm is being unfulfilled and unsure. I don’t know what to do with my life, my career, I don’t know my why and I don’t know where to go. I need to lean on Jesus and let him guide me
My storm is time management, this summer I felt very disorganized and lazy about all the thing I strived to do, I know God has a plan for me and will take this storm to him ❤
My Storm is still Sexual Temptation, My Ego, Pride, and Past idolizations of women. I’ve talked to the lord about these things but I haven’t fully trusted in him. I think it’s about time I act FROM the Win…. not FOR it. It’s all thanks to Jesus conquering the storm that I have a chance to even give it to him like Alex said. Thanks for the AMEN, Alex!
One of my main storms that I've been struggling with recently has been one of fear, simply put. I'm 19, just graduated highschool, I currently don't have a stable job and the fact of entering adulthood really frightens me. There are so much things I know I should be doing to stay positive and be a better example of a Christian and all that, but it's really hard and exhausting to keep up with the persistence, so I get caught worrying about if I'll be able to keep up, if I'll succeed in what I'm doing, if I'll ever be able to get free from some of my other bad storms, such as my addiction to, well, as alot of people have commented, pornography; sexual desires and lust. It's really had a huge hold on me to the point where I'll be praying to God, or watching a tesitmony, and then through that, I'll get random lustful thoughts and I give in. Part of it is because I did like this girl, genuinely, didnt look at her with lustful eyes, and as happy as she made me feel, ironically, she made me feel the worst about myself too, and so since I couldn't have her, I'm like "Oh well, there won't be anyone as great as her. Might as well just go to this or that" in a form of escape, even though I know I should be going to God about it all, in which I have and still talk to Him, but idk, I say have faith but what if i dont have enough of it to resist. I keep on failing to say "No." I keep falling down to this thing that shouldn't have as much power as it does. It's all alot and it all kills me inside. Im scared of it controlling my life. The other night, I fought hard against myself, telling myself to not do it, but also telling myself "Do it" like Palpatine said to Anakin. Its all so much but I think it all stems down to the main root being fear. Im scared of being alone. Im scared of not finding someone to love and be loved by, or falling in love with another girl and they not falling in love with me. Im scared of failing at life. Im scared of being a disappointment because everyone expects me to be this 'great' guy, saying theyre all proud of me and all that. Im scared of letting them down and letting myself down. Im scared of being an adult cus theres so much things I'll have to tackle and I'll be alone cus everyone gets busy with their lives and friends especially grow apart and im really scared about that, bout losing my closest friends. And Im scared of losing myself and walking away from God like I did couple years back, and I pretty much just got back to following him, too, and in general I guess I have gotten better with loving myself a bit more than I used to, but still, it's like no matter how hard I try, I cant seem to keep up a consistent routine and I can't seem to get away from my demons, I cant seem to keep up the facade of being a reliable young adult. I cant seem to remain persistent. I should be living a better life but it seems I wont be able to... And that fear of everything to come, and that fear of not being enough or doing enough, its always gonna linger.... So I'm simply stuck in a storm of fear. I know to not expect to just float in this ocean, so I am swimming, but the storm has developed and the waves engulf me and I start to drown. My energy only lasts so long. So I grab Jesus's hand, but that still doesnt get rid of the storm im going through. It's still there, still immensely terrifying and so I'm just scared right now. Im really scared. I want to have faith and not be scared, but I am and thats the truth. And I just dont know how long this is gonna take. That was a lot to read, so I'm sorry about that. I just kinda started going full force on what Im dealing with right now, so if you took the time to read that, I'm really sorry about that, but also I gotta thank you for caring enough to read, but yeah, that's the general jist of it.
Do not be sorry. I relate to you. I feel like every few years I am 19 years old again, feeling like a fish out of water. It's taken me 32 years to learn the only thing to fear is God. He is the only one who can turn our Light on or off, he is the only true source of ultimate power to stop your heart beating, if He wills it. I personally struggle with completely giving everything up to God, all worry and anxiety. I know (now) His word says to not be anxious. I believe it may be the symptom of generational curses. (As well as forcing myself, a square peg, into round holes, because I have level 3 autism and severe ADHD, but mask as having full control over myself and my life 😅) Many in my family are medicated to cope with anxiety and depression. I have personally been medicated for short periods, and it's like swimming in dark water. I know I come from masons, and probably witches and the like, meaning the occult is in my lineage. I recognize the seed of evil in my family of origin, the vines desperately clinging to my sister and me. And I physically cannot take it anymore... even if I am not conscious of what I'm doing, and it tarnishes my "reputation", I am so incredibly sensitive to the light and dark, I cannot control how my body, heart and mind react to it. I speak truth, get loud, and literally vibrate. Things came to a head last year, and I had to learn, the hard way, that I AM NOT IN CONTROL. And that's how it's supposed to be. But God had to show me by letting me get Baker Acted (for ridiculous reasons, so I was promptly released, but it still sucked). Anyway, look, I ramble, too! Being gentle with oneself can help to wrangle fear and anxiety and outbursts, but that's God's grace, His will. I fear nothing but God Himself after the things I have been though. And it's kinda funny that I found my confirmation in His word, after all these storms. I had to humble myself, sit, focus, and finally read His word for the first time in years. I still feel as though I am in one, but I wish to remain on the boat, and Jesus steering the ship. And I will also admit, it was seeing the scene from The Chosen, of the Samaritan woman at the well, that really jumpstarted my journey in the last month. It lead to me binging The Chosen and becoming less self-conscious about my faith journey. The character Matthew changed my life.
So my guy. I remember i was at the same spot st that age. I can tell you one thing. No one cares about you as much as you think! Write this quote down. For your own sake. It will benefit your mental health. And in a few years yoj will realize it too. Mostly everyone is focused on their own selves. Learn from my mistakes: Do not give in to your flesh and your thoughts. Meaning, if you have a thought that you don't like. Realize that it is just a thought. Humans have many of those during the day. Also, stop comparing your life to others on this planet. You have to see the fact, that all of us are children who are called after a few years adults. You are giving your self pressure. The question is why would you do that? Your main priority should onky be to stay out of trouble. And stay close to the word of god=Bible=Jesus. As long you are not harming anyone, you shouldn't be thinking about them. Think about Jesus only. Give him every concern, that you have. Day in day out. Because at the end you will realize at one stage in your life, that no one cares about your wellbeeing than Jesus. Not even you yourself. Let's be honest, you don't know yourself what is the best for you right now. Isn't it? But Jesus knows! God os waiting for you to connect with him spiritually. It is not easy. But nothing is easy. All of us have a hard time because even Jesus said. The spirit is indeed willing but the flesh is weak. Remember always to not connect to god through your flesh but through your spirit. The flesh can give you deceive you. You know exactly what i mean, thoughts sins.... and all that. But watch and pray. That is what Jesus wants from all of us. And thank you so much for your comment. It has made me come back to read the word of god. Remember always. You are weak. But so are all of us. Exactly that is why we need jesus. JESUS knows your struggle. He wants to comfort you, but at the same time he would like you to talk to him. If i may give an advice, Every one would leave you. You shouldn't be thinking about any partner. Make jesus your best friend. And he will give you every thing at the right time. When you are ready. But give him everything so that he can deal with it for your. He said call no man your father. Because he wants this place in your heart. Read the bible brother. God is full of love. Love that no one could give you. No girlfriend no best friend or anyone. And realize you are blessed. Say thanks to god. Say always thank you lord. Stop worrying. See those worries will get you no where in life. But have faith in god. Brother don't trust me but trust in the word lf god. He is the King of Kings. There is no one greater than him. Trust always in him. No matter good or bad. All of us struggle with situations Bro. But only the one who sticks close to god will come out as a winner. Don't worry about worldly things man. These things will perish one day. Your daily worry should be, how can i be obedient to god. Every second. How can i serve him. How can i make him happy. God bless you Bro. Sorr dor this long letter. Haha.
@@DispensationalismAmen to this dude!!! this sparked a fire in me because I am going through the same struggle as the comment above who is struggling with sexual temptation and lust. Its been a constant battle between yes and no, do i give in or not. At times, during my temptation, it seems that my brain shuts down, my stomach turns, my cravings for pornography intensify, my heart starts racing, my thoughts go crazy and imagination is vile, and i lose all sight of God. Its almost a selfish personality I take on for a moment in time and it is absolutely terrible and wicked. If i can give some advice to the comment above (midknight), because i am also 19, it is this: We all have a choice on how to act. Do we act on our impulse? Do we give in to temptation? Do we retaliate when someone hurts us? Do we seek revenge? No one is ever making us watch porn or give in to lust, that is the fault of our own sin in ourselves. I learned to build endurance against temptation by learning to build accountability; realizing that it is my fault and my decision to not or to watch porn. If we call ourselves christians then we need to make these decision according to God’s word. No one is perfect, but we learn through mistakes and repentance! A mistake isn’t failure, a mistake is making the same bad decision once again! Learn from your choices and don’t let your mind fool you when temptation knocks at the door! Praying for you all in this comment thread 🙏
I honestly feel I have batting off the devil for a while, everytime I get up something else is coming at me. So I needed to hear that victory talk, because it drains u. From grief through to mental health, family issues to my pets dying and having serious health issues. But I’m still walking. Sometimes just through that moment but nevertheless walking. Amen!
My storm is anxiety, fear, and self doubt. There was a time when anxiety took over my body, all I felt was fear. I didn’t know how to control it but I then came into realization that I don’t need to be the one in control because God has control of all things. What I thought was a huge storm, was something so small to God because he really is powerful. We must not be fearful because Jesus will guide our hearts and souls!
I believe my storm is from God currently and is testing me in a wilderness season. I might have to wait for God to release me from the storm because he is using it as a time to grow and mature me. I know Jesus can take away the storm but it won't happen until his timing is complete. So I just pray that I don't lose hope in the storm. Amen!
Unwavering faith needs to be taken to Jesus. Of course I'm not only afraid but terrified I'm going to confront the entire situation but in the end, I'll leave it in His hands. Amen and Amen.
My storm has been sleeping problems. I need to trust The Lord to provide peace for my mind. Please pray for me brothers and sisters. I’m so scared and I feel like a slave to my own body and mind. I am a grown man and my mother has been sleeping by my side because she’s the only physical figure on this earth I can draw comfort from.
Hey everyone we all need to repent to jesus before its too late.. i seen jesus 3 times last year an 4 times this year.. i think i have a calling on my life.. i have a dream every week or two of jesus, My first dream was me seeing the lion of judah through sunlight a week before my bday. And it was an outer body experience so i was able to look through the sunlight, less then a second the lion of judah was in front of me. I felt his presence it was soo peaceful words can't explain the feeling. i can't explain the feeling, jesus the only one who can explain it. the feeling is beyond our imagination.. but he was talking to my mind telling me to spread what i just experienced.
Some of my storms right now is worry, fear, and anxiety, and letting go of worldly possessions. Sometimes im in a constant state of fear and I hate living with it. I love worldly possessions but I don’t want to put it before God and sometimes I do. Please pray for me and every one of us!
I've had a really odd amount of demonic oppression affecting me for the last few days. I fasted yesterday and plan to fast again tomorrow, because I know that the power of Jesus has broken, is breaking, and will break every chain bound upon me. Perfect timing I see this message! Thanks, Alex.
me too. Jesus is coming back man, the oppression has reallyyy been ramping up lately. but that's only because Satan knows we've already won the victory. Jesus will hold us through to the end
Mine is that this summer I've been really consistent in my relationship with Jesus. But now that school is starting back, there's going to be a lot of distractions and stress. I just pray that the Lord will give me rest and peace. He's so good.
same! i already see how my college friends have been falling off with reading their bibles lately... it always happens whenever the semester starts . you have to make time for him, not expect ur schedule to open up
You are beautiful! My storm is my children have Children now and none of them believe or even want to hear me speak of Jesus, they are not saved, I didn't raise them in the word of God, a very heavy burden, shame and fear, have (had)great fear of everything, even that I'm not with God because I have this fear (which is doubt of Christ). My two edge sword, so I'm fighting to lay down my sword (very heavy) and let God fight this battle while giving me the the strength, tenacity and understanding I feel (?) I'm weak in my faith and God is bringing me his word and teaching everyday now so the stronger my faith the weaker the Battle. Not that God is weak but myself. I love listening to your words, you speak with such calm and easy understanding of God's word. Thank you and many Blessings to you and your family.
My storm comes and Jesus brings me victory over fear then the enemy brings it up Again! I rebuke the fear but when I am weak or tired or distracted, satan doubles down and fear and worry about my family and my only child creep in. What is frustrating is, I know the voice of a lier but I take too long to take it to Jesus. Thank you so much Alex for this timely teaching. Now, off to prayer and worship I go. 🙏
can totally relate to this, the enemy knows how to kick us when we're already down. but Jesus will always lift us up if we ask!! and that's an awesome thing
My Storm: being hit with multiple distractions that include lust, alcohol, relationships and overall sin. I noticed the moment I give the devil an inch he takes a whole mile. He is not a friend to me but my enemy and I'm more focused on Christ than anything and I just want to be in full submission, being able to overcome every distraction sent my way. I love the Lord, but I have to learn to love him even when I'm faced with what seems like unbearable temptation. I'm sick of the temporary satisfaction.
What storm am I in? I'm morning for a brother in christ of mine who is in the hospital. I also have this guy living with me who is going through heavy withdraws from kratum as I write this. PRAISE GOD. SINGING HALLELUJAH IN THE MIDDLE OF THE STORM!
My storm is moving on from the past and moving forward. Sometimes I see my old classmates randomly in public and they act bitter when they see me. I think Satan is trying to distract me from my goals and is telling me that I won’t be successful in life, but God will always be with me and help me. Satan is trying to place insecurities that I don’t need. I’m going in the right direction with the right people to support me. That’s what matters most. The people who try to hurt me and don’t support me in reaching my goals don’t matter. I hope they have peace within themselves.
My storm is overthinking and doubts; i am constantly filled with thoughts shaming myself for belief in Christ and evil thoughts and violent thoughts against other people. Sometimes its not as bad as other times, but i know these thoughts are a result of my newfound belief in Christ. the devil wants me back, he knows that Jesus is the way and the truth and the life, and he knows i know, and yet i can know that every time i bring these thoughts of shame against God and violence and anguish and jealousy and greed and judgement of others to Jesus, He will give me victory every time. I cant wait till i get to Heaven and dont have to deal with these anymore. who knows? maybe i might be healed from them while on earth?
My husband is in the hospital, we’re waiting a biopsy results to rule out cancer. He is an atheist and I have been clinging to Jesus in this phase. If anyone has any theology or videos I can send to him I would appreciate it! Trying to just shine the Lord’s light through myself for him, but it’s hard when we take our pain to different places. Thank you all, and thank You Lord, this I leave at Thy heavenly throne, amen.
Dear Sis, I hope that God will be a source of strength, healing, blessings to you as well as your husband. Read Isaiah 58 and Isaiah 54. Especially Isaiah 54:17
Storm of unemployment, neurological distress (possibly multiple sclerosis) , and not knowing if I am living in the right home with the right person... It's my first time living "on my own", and now that I have rested and recovered from a lifetime of storms, especially almost seven years since my Dad's stroke (I took care for him up until last year when my world crumbled) I have a sense of restlessness and as if I am missing something, something is off, and I fear becoming complacent and "settling" here.
Amen. The storm I’m in is struggling to understand why I can’t spiritually grow. I basically just do the same things over and over again each day yet find sooo little spiritual growth. And that sets off anger in me because I desire to grow spiritually.
I was just reading Acts about Paul’s missionary journeys & in Acts 17 or 18 Paul wanted to go to this city to preach but the Holy Spirit told him no. So he went to a different city but later God led him to go to the city he wanted to go to before. The lesson was that what feels like God’s “no” is really “not right now.” The city prospered when God knew it was the right time for Paul to go & preach. Right now I yearn to grow spiritually too but right now we both need to just build the foundation with God & TRUST that his will is perfect! ❤
@@ashleybaity1239 AMEN thank you for this. This was powerful!!! And I’m young to do maybe God waiting till I get a lil older. God bless you sister in Christ.
My storm is dealing with a back injury that he said he allowed to get my attention, it’s been almost 2yrs and I’m still waiting for my healing/freedom from under this injury/storm.
My storm is anxiety, depression, and overthinking. As a Christian, their has been multiple times where I get extremely overwhelmed with frustration that I eventually give up. Then I find myself again recommitting my life to Christ, because I know I cant live without him but its frustrating trying to live for him. Sometimes I think Christianity is not for me but something urges me to pray. Its like I cant let him go(I've tried multiple time). God as well as understanding how the holy spirit is supposed to help me is tooo complex for me to understand. I understand Christianity is faith base but I feel alone and confused. I pray that one day I figure it out, so I can help other believers so they don't have to go through the frustration and mental distress I've went through.
My storm right now is just very intense moments of condemnation and thinking of regrets in life.. feels like I can just get drowned in those thoughts and lose hope in the future.. hard to discern if I need to revist things that I have worked through or if its just straight up lies. Conviction VS condemnation.. very hard to discern. Romans 8 has been a comfort to me. Thank you for your teaching, I listen every chance I get!
I believe storms don’t just come from sin .. God can send storms to test us, to grow us, to mature us. However, the storm I need to bring to God is the toxic relationship I have with my mother and how it is affecting the other relationships I have in my life.
The storm that i need to take to Jesus is: i`m trusting Him for heeling my heart, i`ve been dignosed with a heart condtion where it leaks, so it doesn`t close properly when it should. Because the blood then leaks my body goes in "overdrive" and cuts off my sense of touch and ability to move my arms. The doctor says it wont go away and there is nothing i can do to make it stop happening. And i also have very high iron levels. So this storm i take to Jesus. And i trust that it`s not what Jesus wants for me and that He died so that i may recieve healing. Amen.
The Father wouldn’t have allowed this to not be spoken. Personally never heard it this way, even knowing all of what was spoken. I’m praying to Abba for direction in the way I should go in this life to fulfill my heart so full of His Joy. I don’t want to live every day the same or for myself.
Thank you for this video brother, been feeling down in the dumps, struggling with a majority of things, but thank the lord for being all merciful and not letting us stay on the ground, he continue to pick me up and push me forward ❤️💪🏼🙏🏼
My Storm is Lust, Anger, and Just living in Autopilot/Lack of Motivation for anything. I resonted so much when you didnt want to build the crib lol, my wife built it instead because I hate building things. But I want to be a Ephesians Husband man, that spoke to me. Thanks bro
Incredible words brother. The storm of this season has been related to my job and where the Lord has me in a long term sense. I need direction for sure, but I'm confident in the promise of His mercy. Our God is a God of order and I believe that order will come from this chaos.
My storm is health anxiety I have been concerned with my health for many months now and all the doctors say I’m fine I’m learning how to have faith in Jesus but is kinda hard with my young mind. I ask for freedom in Jesus name
I've been going through a lot of storms: loneliness, mental health, envy, comparison, sadness, but I know it's going to pass because Jesus already gave me the victory!
My storm is probably my sin lately and my overthinking..I’ve been trying to control things that I can’t,and ending up hurting my self or sinning trying to find comfort or satisfaction but I realize now that I need to let God control and give it to Jesus and stop worrying “for does worrying add an hour to one’s life more less than take one..?”
My storm right now is in parenting and how anger and my emotions take over because right now it’s a daily battle with my 18 year old in some way. This truth today will help me! Thank you!
John 14:27 Peace I leave with you, my peace I give unto you: not as the world giveth, give I unto you. Let not your heart be troubled, neither let it be afraid.
The storms I'm going through involve love, work, a home of my own, and church. Or a lack thereof. I wouldn't normally comment about this sort of thing, but I've been fasting and I wasn't even sure what I was fasting about until this video's question at the end. I give my storms up to Jesus.
My storm: Lust, depression and spiritual laziness. For 6 years i have fallen to lust and for about 2 months I've been going through depression I've never experienced before. To the point that sometimes i feel like i don't belong here. But last night i just watched some of your videos and they woke me up as a christian. Friends at church have hurt me to the point that as a pastor's kid(19) i don't know if its okay to move to a new church where i can start afresh and renew myself. I pray God gives me the answer.
I have a problem with the flat under my flat. Recently, very evil, loud neighbors moved our and I finally after over a year could experience peace and silence. Now a gas detector or maybe a alarm battery started beeping. Maybe this sound is not that annoying but it is repetitive and it IS there.... Please pray for this, I just want to have peace and live in silence. Also please pray for my Mom to get a new job, right now she is working in a hellhole. Bless you all in Jesus name
My storm is anxiety, Iv'e dealt with it a lot and I know I will get through it because of Jesus. I keep praying he will heal me, and I will continue to. Thank you for this video it helped, god bless amen! ❤
Amen brother. Loneliness and temptation. Learning how to stand my ground. Not give in to sexual temptations. Sometimes I’m lonely so look for love it attention if. It received at times I can go to lust. But other times it’s just me willingly doing it. I wanna do better. But I rlly need to flee, I want freedom. Ik the devil just wants me to be lukewarm. It’s the only thing he can do.
I feel like I'm battling with multiple versions of myself. Which should be lead. But like you said, after writing this, I'm taking it to Jesus. That's the storm in right now. Thank you for your sermon.
Amen brother. My storm is loneliness, feeling that I’m always losing close friends due to moving or other situations. Took it to God last night in tears. I know he is faithful. Please ask him to fill my heart with thanksgiving through the moments where self pity tries to creep in. The enemy will have no stronghold in this freed soul.
Same brother but imma tell you what God told me bro Isaiah 66:13 and 2 Corinthians 1:3 -5, even in our affliction he comforts us he sees you and he's right there holding you he's your true love though we do wish for companionship he's the true companion ❤️🙏🏿
May you always find faith and peace in your moments of loneliness. Focus on your inner self worth instead of filling loneliness from external factors. God is always with you ❤
Praying for you
I feel this same way. Loneliness and isolation. My parents recently sold my childhood home before I graduated from college and I now live and work in a place I don’t want to be at all. There is no faith community, no friends, and the nearest city is 2 hours away. I struggle so much to be here.
@abby31415 Praying for you and your journey 🙏
Do not be afraid-I am with you! I am your God-let nothing terrify you! I will make you strong and help you; I will protect you and save you.
Isaiah 41:10
Also read Psalm 23 ❤️
my storm is my fear of the unknown. i’m letting my fears determine what i do with each and every day of my life. I don’t want to be afraid anymore. I want to go out knowing no matter what happens i’ll have God right there with me.
My storm WAS anger and loneliness. I’m not letting the storm torment me. Jesus rebukes these storms !!
Amen Jesus can conquer any storm❤🎉
Amen I’m walking in faith and my storm is thinking too much and I ask Jesus to bring me out of it and I trust that he will in Jesus name amen
Tim Keller says "not every storm is from sin, but every sin brings a storm." Such a great quote and great way to process this idea. GREAT VIDEO!
I have been getting a lot of storms in the form of sexual temptation, anxiety and potential depression. I've given in to temptations before, but if I take any of those storms to Jesus, I know I will feel better. Thank you for this video, Alex.
Amen
Same for me
Same, amen
I’ve had sexual temptation, loneliness, uncertainty and lacking confidence, I need to give this to Jesus. Thank you man.
Praise Jesus Hallelujah, may God bless y'all and listen to God and not the enemy
Thank you for this video, my storm is allowing myself to fall into sexual temptation, I know that I can’t do it alone so I am gonna give it to the one who can overcome it, Jesus I pray that you direct me on the path away from this sin I know I can’t do it alone and that I can only do it through you. You are my God and my Savior I love you so much Yeshua I pray this in your mighty name
My storm is doubt, deep anguish, loneliness fear and torment.
Amen, my storm is prideful lust, I let my flesh put me in that storm by neglecting the temple of God that i am. I had hurt people instead of being a blessing for them. I was a stumbling block for my sisters instead of keep being a example for them. Ngl I want to die so I will stop having the option to walk by the flesh and only have to option to walk by the spirit, but I remember that it’s for my sanctification, the development of my love for Him and y’all that i still have that flesh. Pray for me, pray that imma restart move according to the freedom we have in Him, pray that I stay still waiting on Him. Thanks in advance, God bless y’all and u Nick
My storm is worry. I have terrible anxiety about every little thing in life. And I need to bring my storm to Jesus. So yeah. God bless yall 🙏✝️❤️
"What storm am I in right now, that I need to take to Jesus?" I think I am in a storm of getting distracted by worldy things, desires. I am learning to let go of worldly things and follow Christ faithfully every day. Reading my word more everyday, carrying my cross daily everyday, talking to God everyday, praying. Living a life that is pleasing and glorifying to God, and doing His will. Amen. God bless you Alex and Lokelani and your family, as well as all of you my brothers and sisters in Christ. 😇🙏🏻❤️✝️
I think my storm is truly walking in faith, and being fearless in Christ
Amen❤❤❤
My storm is the fear of being successful. I allow my fear of doing the things I feel is right stop me and guides me into doing negative things. I fall into sin by choice because I fear I am too far gone into the wrong path. I experience failure until I have to “crawl” back to the word of God. I have lost relationships, guidance, loved ones, my connection with God, and so much more.
We are saved by grace of Christ! Please pray for me and my children! I’m a sinner in need of Christ!! I trust in God and keep faith even as I struggle to take care of my children and myself. As a single mother things are so hard on me. Both of my sons are autistic I’m overwhelmed. God please hear my prayers. I’m constantly struggling to buy groceries and constantly struggling to pay rent and now that I’m home schooling my sons I’m struggling to buy their school supplies. I’m so ashamed and overwhelmed so please be kind. I choose to have faith over fear as christians that’s all we can do. No matter your struggle, we can turn to God. He knows us personally and can give us strength to overcome our challenges. Heavenly and merciful Father, I come before your glorious throne today, in humble adoration please help me overcome my struggles and my constant fear of homelessness. Walking with faith is all I can do! Please pray for me prayers are all I need. ❤
God bless these people.
Look into their hearts and soul. And remember that all of us are your children. And we need your help your guidance. Please have mercy on us. In Jesus name i pray amen.
Our lord and Our Father are with you
Divorce addiction alcoholism division please pray with me god wants me and shows me on here please
Hi Daniel, I’m praying that God show you His light. His path is narrow, but in it His is the brightest. Paul says that during the trials, we are to sing and dance with Joy. James says the same. Let us lift our spirits and God will make things as He wants. I’m praying that the God of Abraham, Jacob & Isaac strengthen you and lift your Spirit. In Jesus name. He lives inside you, so do not forget that His power has already overcome darkness!! Take the storm to Him!!
@@the.barefootangel Amen ty
The storm I am in right now is trying to distance myself from the people who act religious but denies the power that makes them holy. It’s hard because some of them are mine own siblings.. but I believe this storm won’t win either ❤.
My storm has been doubt. My mind is filled with doubt when ever I get closer to God. I have anxiety over my doubt and it hurts a lot. It's currently 5.03 am where I am. And I woke up from a doubtful nightmare. I'm glad I found this video. Thankyou. May God bless you.
Amen, my storm is knowing what I’m supposed to do for the Lord but not doing it. Failing as a servant. It’s sad, but I know the walk with God is not a race. He is with me all the time and will stay with me, protect me and constantly find ways for me to go back to him. Amen
Im struggling with a lot of sexual temptation. im 15 was introduced to pornography at age 12. i once got over this temptation but fell back into it after being alone with my grandparents for 3 weeks meaning i was more alone then with them anyway. I fell back into that whole and seem to not be able to really come back from it. i wont say all my storms here but i want to thank the community and Alex for the guidance and support that i see.
Watch his testimony video :) He talks about his pornography addiction. God Bless brother.
There is salvation my bro, I was there too! Keep your eyes on him, focus on him! When you’re tempted, close your eyes and hear his voice. He is calling for you! You got this !!
Praying for you! I have the same struggle but any sin God has forgiven us from he can also deliverance us from. There is freedom in the cross, keep striving!
You can get through it I watched porn for the 1st time at age 11
open up to your parents about it. I promise you're not going to be able to do it all on your own. Tell ur parents about it! you are so young so this is a great thing to nip in the bud so it doesn't grow any longer. Praying for your freedom
My storm is being unfulfilled and unsure. I don’t know what to do with my life, my career, I don’t know my why and I don’t know where to go. I need to lean on Jesus and let him guide me
My storm is time management, this summer I felt very disorganized and lazy about all the thing I strived to do, I know God has a plan for me and will take this storm to him ❤
Yes, submit to Him
My Storm is still Sexual Temptation, My Ego, Pride, and Past idolizations of women. I’ve talked to the lord about these things but I haven’t fully trusted in him. I think it’s about time I act FROM the Win…. not FOR it. It’s all thanks to Jesus conquering the storm that I have a chance to even give it to him like Alex said. Thanks for the AMEN, Alex!
One of my main storms that I've been struggling with recently has been one of fear, simply put. I'm 19, just graduated highschool, I currently don't have a stable job and the fact of entering adulthood really frightens me. There are so much things I know I should be doing to stay positive and be a better example of a Christian and all that, but it's really hard and exhausting to keep up with the persistence, so I get caught worrying about if I'll be able to keep up, if I'll succeed in what I'm doing, if I'll ever be able to get free from some of my other bad storms, such as my addiction to, well, as alot of people have commented, pornography; sexual desires and lust. It's really had a huge hold on me to the point where I'll be praying to God, or watching a tesitmony, and then through that, I'll get random lustful thoughts and I give in. Part of it is because I did like this girl, genuinely, didnt look at her with lustful eyes, and as happy as she made me feel, ironically, she made me feel the worst about myself too, and so since I couldn't have her, I'm like "Oh well, there won't be anyone as great as her. Might as well just go to this or that" in a form of escape, even though I know I should be going to God about it all, in which I have and still talk to Him, but idk, I say have faith but what if i dont have enough of it to resist. I keep on failing to say "No." I keep falling down to this thing that shouldn't have as much power as it does. It's all alot and it all kills me inside. Im scared of it controlling my life. The other night, I fought hard against myself, telling myself to not do it, but also telling myself "Do it" like Palpatine said to Anakin. Its all so much but I think it all stems down to the main root being fear. Im scared of being alone. Im scared of not finding someone to love and be loved by, or falling in love with another girl and they not falling in love with me. Im scared of failing at life. Im scared of being a disappointment because everyone expects me to be this 'great' guy, saying theyre all proud of me and all that. Im scared of letting them down and letting myself down. Im scared of being an adult cus theres so much things I'll have to tackle and I'll be alone cus everyone gets busy with their lives and friends especially grow apart and im really scared about that, bout losing my closest friends. And Im scared of losing myself and walking away from God like I did couple years back, and I pretty much just got back to following him, too, and in general I guess I have gotten better with loving myself a bit more than I used to, but still, it's like no matter how hard I try, I cant seem to keep up a consistent routine and I can't seem to get away from my demons, I cant seem to keep up the facade of being a reliable young adult. I cant seem to remain persistent. I should be living a better life but it seems I wont be able to... And that fear of everything to come, and that fear of not being enough or doing enough, its always gonna linger.... So I'm simply stuck in a storm of fear. I know to not expect to just float in this ocean, so I am swimming, but the storm has developed and the waves engulf me and I start to drown. My energy only lasts so long. So I grab Jesus's hand, but that still doesnt get rid of the storm im going through. It's still there, still immensely terrifying and so I'm just scared right now. Im really scared. I want to have faith and not be scared, but I am and thats the truth. And I just dont know how long this is gonna take. That was a lot to read, so I'm sorry about that. I just kinda started going full force on what Im dealing with right now, so if you took the time to read that, I'm really sorry about that, but also I gotta thank you for caring enough to read, but yeah, that's the general jist of it.
Do not be sorry. I relate to you. I feel like every few years I am 19 years old again, feeling like a fish out of water.
It's taken me 32 years to learn the only thing to fear is God. He is the only one who can turn our Light on or off, he is the only true source of ultimate power to stop your heart beating, if He wills it.
I personally struggle with completely giving everything up to God, all worry and anxiety. I know (now) His word says to not be anxious. I believe it may be the symptom of generational curses. (As well as forcing myself, a square peg, into round holes, because I have level 3 autism and severe ADHD, but mask as having full control over myself and my life 😅)
Many in my family are medicated to cope with anxiety and depression. I have personally been medicated for short periods, and it's like swimming in dark water.
I know I come from masons, and probably witches and the like, meaning the occult is in my lineage. I recognize the seed of evil in my family of origin, the vines desperately clinging to my sister and me. And I physically cannot take it anymore... even if I am not conscious of what I'm doing, and it tarnishes my "reputation", I am so incredibly sensitive to the light and dark, I cannot control how my body, heart and mind react to it. I speak truth, get loud, and literally vibrate.
Things came to a head last year, and I had to learn, the hard way, that I AM NOT IN CONTROL. And that's how it's supposed to be. But God had to show me by letting me get Baker Acted (for ridiculous reasons, so I was promptly released, but it still sucked).
Anyway, look, I ramble, too!
Being gentle with oneself can help to wrangle fear and anxiety and outbursts, but that's God's grace, His will. I fear nothing but God Himself after the things I have been though. And it's kinda funny that I found my confirmation in His word, after all these storms. I had to humble myself, sit, focus, and finally read His word for the first time in years. I still feel as though I am in one, but I wish to remain on the boat, and Jesus steering the ship.
And I will also admit, it was seeing the scene from The Chosen, of the Samaritan woman at the well, that really jumpstarted my journey in the last month. It lead to me binging The Chosen and becoming less self-conscious about my faith journey. The character Matthew changed my life.
So my guy.
I remember i was at the same spot st that age.
I can tell you one thing.
No one cares about you as much as you think!
Write this quote down. For your own sake. It will benefit your mental health. And in a few years yoj will realize it too.
Mostly everyone is focused on their own selves.
Learn from my mistakes:
Do not give in to your flesh and your thoughts. Meaning, if you have a thought that you don't like. Realize that it is just a thought. Humans have many of those during the day. Also, stop comparing your life to others on this planet. You have to see the fact, that all of us are children who are called after a few years adults.
You are giving your self pressure. The question is why would you do that?
Your main priority should onky be to stay out of trouble. And stay close to the word of god=Bible=Jesus.
As long you are not harming anyone, you shouldn't be thinking about them. Think about Jesus only. Give him every concern, that you have. Day in day out. Because at the end you will realize at one stage in your life, that no one cares about your wellbeeing than Jesus. Not even you yourself. Let's be honest, you don't know yourself what is the best for you right now. Isn't it? But Jesus knows! God os waiting for you to connect with him spiritually. It is not easy. But nothing is easy. All of us have a hard time because even Jesus said. The spirit is indeed willing but the flesh is weak.
Remember always to not connect to god through your flesh but through your spirit. The flesh can give you deceive you. You know exactly what i mean, thoughts sins.... and all that. But watch and pray. That is what Jesus wants from all of us.
And thank you so much for your comment. It has made me come back to read the word of god.
Remember always. You are weak. But so are all of us. Exactly that is why we need jesus. JESUS knows your struggle. He wants to comfort you, but at the same time he would like you to talk to him.
If i may give an advice,
Every one would leave you.
You shouldn't be thinking about any partner. Make jesus your best friend. And he will give you every thing at the right time. When you are ready. But give him everything so that he can deal with it for your. He said call no man your father. Because he wants this place in your heart. Read the bible brother. God is full of love. Love that no one could give you. No girlfriend no best friend or anyone. And realize you are blessed.
Say thanks to god.
Say always thank you lord. Stop worrying.
See those worries will get you no where in life. But have faith in god. Brother don't trust me but trust in the word lf god.
He is the King of Kings. There is no one greater than him. Trust always in him. No matter good or bad.
All of us struggle with situations Bro. But only the one who sticks close to god will come out as a winner.
Don't worry about worldly things man. These things will perish one day.
Your daily worry should be, how can i be obedient to god. Every second. How can i serve him. How can i make him happy.
God bless you Bro. Sorr dor this long letter. Haha.
@@DispensationalismAmen to this dude!!! this sparked a fire in me because I am going through the same struggle as the comment above who is struggling with sexual temptation and lust. Its been a constant battle between yes and no, do i give in or not.
At times, during my temptation, it seems that my brain shuts down, my stomach turns, my cravings for pornography intensify, my heart starts racing, my thoughts go crazy and imagination is vile, and i lose all sight of God. Its almost a selfish personality I take on for a moment in time and it is absolutely terrible and wicked.
If i can give some advice to the comment above (midknight), because i am also 19, it is this:
We all have a choice on how to act. Do we act on our impulse? Do we give in to temptation? Do we retaliate when someone hurts us? Do we seek revenge?
No one is ever making us watch porn or give in to lust, that is the fault of our own sin in ourselves. I learned to build endurance against temptation by learning to build accountability; realizing that it is my fault and my decision to not or to watch porn.
If we call ourselves christians then we need to make these decision according to God’s word. No one is perfect, but we learn through mistakes and repentance! A mistake isn’t failure, a mistake is making the same bad decision once again! Learn from your choices and don’t let your mind fool you when temptation knocks at the door!
Praying for you all in this comment thread 🙏
amazing comment. 100 percent agree @@Dispensationalism
@@nicolegenerale
Thank you so much sister.
God bless you.
My storm is my health
I’m actually listening to you. You have a beautiful way of speaking. Thank you for your openness and for your love of Jesus. God bless ❤
I honestly feel I have batting off the devil for a while, everytime I get up something else is coming at me. So I needed to hear that victory talk, because it drains u. From grief through to mental health, family issues to my pets dying and having serious health issues. But I’m still walking. Sometimes just through that moment but nevertheless walking. Amen!
My storm is a battle with self-hatred. Going to be taking it to Jesus
My storm is dealing with negative thoughts
I'am speechless, thank you so much in Jesus name Amen
My storm is anxiety, fear, and self doubt. There was a time when anxiety took over my body, all I felt was fear. I didn’t know how to control it but I then came into realization that I don’t need to be the one in control because God has control of all things. What I thought was a huge storm, was something so small to God because he really is powerful. We must not be fearful because Jesus will guide our hearts and souls!
I believe my storm is from God currently and is testing me in a wilderness season. I might have to wait for God to release me from the storm because he is using it as a time to grow and mature me. I know Jesus can take away the storm but it won't happen until his timing is complete. So I just pray that I don't lose hope in the storm. Amen!
My storm is anger and frustration and confusion ima take it to jesus when i come home to pray ❤so he can take control
Unwavering faith needs to be taken to Jesus. Of course I'm not only afraid but terrified I'm going to confront the entire situation but in the end, I'll leave it in His hands. Amen and Amen.
The storm i need to bring to Jesus is true repentance
My storm has been sleeping problems. I need to trust The Lord to provide peace for my mind. Please pray for me brothers and sisters. I’m so scared and I feel like a slave to my own body and mind.
I am a grown man and my mother has been sleeping by my side because she’s the only physical figure on this earth I can draw comfort from.
Hey everyone we all need to repent to jesus before its too late.. i seen jesus 3 times last year an 4 times this year.. i think i have a calling on my life.. i have a dream every week or two of jesus, My first dream was me seeing the lion of judah through sunlight a week before my bday. And it was an outer body experience so i was able to look through the sunlight, less then a second the lion of judah was in front of me. I felt his presence it was soo peaceful words can't explain the feeling. i can't explain the feeling, jesus the only one who can explain it. the feeling is beyond our imagination.. but he was talking to my mind telling me to spread what i just experienced.
Amen uso
Some of my storms right now is worry, fear, and anxiety, and letting go of worldly possessions. Sometimes im in a constant state of fear and I hate living with it. I love worldly possessions but I don’t want to put it before God and sometimes I do. Please pray for me and every one of us!
i guess in a storm of getting over things, something’s from the past i need to give to Jesus.
I've had a really odd amount of demonic oppression affecting me for the last few days. I fasted yesterday and plan to fast again tomorrow, because I know that the power of Jesus has broken, is breaking, and will break every chain bound upon me. Perfect timing I see this message! Thanks, Alex.
Same I don't know where it's commung from
me too. Jesus is coming back man, the oppression has reallyyy been ramping up lately. but that's only because Satan knows we've already won the victory. Jesus will hold us through to the end
Storm at work. Taking it to Jesus!
The storm I’m in is sickness but it’s not my identity. Jesus is who is seek because He is strong when I am weak!
Mine is that this summer I've been really consistent in my relationship with Jesus. But now that school is starting back, there's going to be a lot of distractions and stress. I just pray that the Lord will give me rest and peace. He's so good.
same! i already see how my college friends have been falling off with reading their bibles lately... it always happens whenever the semester starts . you have to make time for him, not expect ur schedule to open up
You are beautiful! My storm is my children have Children now and none of them believe or even want to hear me speak of Jesus, they are not saved, I didn't raise them in the word of God, a very heavy burden, shame and fear, have (had)great fear of everything, even that I'm not with God because I have this fear (which is doubt of Christ). My two edge sword, so I'm fighting to lay down my sword (very heavy) and let God fight this battle while giving me the the strength, tenacity and understanding I feel (?) I'm weak in my faith and God is bringing me his word and teaching everyday now so the stronger my faith the weaker the Battle. Not that God is weak but myself. I love listening to your words, you speak with such calm and easy understanding of God's word. Thank you and many Blessings to you and your family.
Amen
Matthew 5:6
Blessed are they which do hunger and thirst after righteousness: for they shall be filled.
My storm comes and Jesus brings me victory over fear then the enemy brings it up Again! I rebuke the fear but when I am weak or tired or distracted, satan doubles down and fear and worry about my family and my only child creep in. What is frustrating is, I know the voice of a lier but I take too long to take it to Jesus. Thank you so much Alex for this timely teaching. Now, off to prayer and worship I go. 🙏
can totally relate to this, the enemy knows how to kick us when we're already down. but Jesus will always lift us up if we ask!! and that's an awesome thing
amen
My Storm: being hit with multiple distractions that include lust, alcohol, relationships and overall sin. I noticed the moment I give the devil an inch he takes a whole mile. He is not a friend to me but my enemy and I'm more focused on Christ than anything and I just want to be in full submission, being able to overcome every distraction sent my way. I love the Lord, but I have to learn to love him even when I'm faced with what seems like unbearable temptation. I'm sick of the temporary satisfaction.
What storm am I in? I'm morning for a brother in christ of mine who is in the hospital. I also have this guy living with me who is going through heavy withdraws from kratum as I write this. PRAISE GOD. SINGING HALLELUJAH IN THE MIDDLE OF THE STORM!
My storm is moving on from the past and moving forward. Sometimes I see my old classmates randomly in public and they act bitter when they see me. I think Satan is trying to distract me from my goals and is telling me that I won’t be successful in life, but God will always be with me and help me. Satan is trying to place insecurities that I don’t need. I’m going in the right direction with the right people to support me. That’s what matters most. The people who try to hurt me and don’t support me in reaching my goals don’t matter. I hope they have peace within themselves.
I love your channel !! continue doing God's work! youre leading alot of people including myself to Christ
My storm is overthinking and doubts; i am constantly filled with thoughts shaming myself for belief in Christ and evil thoughts and violent thoughts against other people. Sometimes its not as bad as other times, but i know these thoughts are a result of my newfound belief in Christ. the devil wants me back, he knows that Jesus is the way and the truth and the life, and he knows i know, and yet i can know that every time i bring these thoughts of shame against God and violence and anguish and jealousy and greed and judgement of others to Jesus, He will give me victory every time. I cant wait till i get to Heaven and dont have to deal with these anymore. who knows? maybe i might be healed from them while on earth?
Jesus as all Authority .
Jesus gives authority to all born again believers to overcome .
The Storm came to destroy and wreck.
My storm I need to take to Jesus is anxiety about the health of my flesh, I worry if I’m going to be able to find someone to accept me for me
Thank You Lord For Another Day
Amen 🙏

My husband is in the hospital, we’re waiting a biopsy results to rule out cancer. He is an atheist and I have been clinging to Jesus in this phase.
If anyone has any theology or videos I can send to him I would appreciate it! Trying to just shine the Lord’s light through myself for him, but it’s hard when we take our pain to different places.

Storm of unemployment, neurological distress (possibly multiple sclerosis) , and not knowing if I am living in the right home with the right person... It's my first time living "on my own", and now that I have rested and recovered from a lifetime of storms, especially almost seven years since my Dad's stroke (I took care for him up until last year when my world crumbled)
I have a sense of restlessness and as if I am missing something, something is off, and I fear becoming complacent and "settling" here.

My storm is my future and getting rest
I’ve been struggling with my relationships. I’m not sure if it comes from anger or a test.
Amen. The storm I’m in is struggling to understand why I can’t spiritually grow. I basically just do the same things over and over again each day yet find sooo little spiritual growth. And that sets off anger in me because I desire to grow spiritually.
I was just reading Acts about Paul’s missionary journeys & in Acts 17 or 18 Paul wanted to go to this city to preach but the Holy Spirit told him no. So he went to a different city but later God led him to go to the city he wanted to go to before. The lesson was that what feels like God’s “no” is really “not right now.” The city prospered when God knew it was the right time for Paul to go & preach. Right now I yearn to grow spiritually too but right now we both need to just build the foundation with God & TRUST that his will is perfect! ❤
@@ashleybaity1239 AMEN thank you for this. This was powerful!!! And I’m young to do maybe God waiting till I get a lil older. God bless you sister in Christ.
My storm is dealing with a back injury that he said he allowed to get my attention, it’s been almost 2yrs and I’m still waiting for my healing/freedom from under this injury/storm.
My storm is anxiety, depression, and overthinking. As a Christian, their has been multiple times where I get extremely overwhelmed with frustration that I eventually give up. Then I find myself again recommitting my life to Christ, because I know I cant live without him but its frustrating trying to live for him. Sometimes I think Christianity is not for me but something urges me to pray. Its like I cant let him go(I've tried multiple time). God as well as understanding how the holy spirit is supposed to help me is tooo complex for me to understand. I understand Christianity is faith base but I feel alone and confused. I pray that one day I figure it out, so I can help other believers so they don't have to go through the frustration and mental distress I've went through.
My storm right now is just very intense moments of condemnation and thinking of regrets in life.. feels like I can just get drowned in those thoughts and lose hope in the future.. hard to discern if I need to revist things that I have worked through or if its just straight up lies. Conviction VS condemnation.. very hard to discern. Romans 8 has been a comfort to me.
Thank you for your teaching, I listen every chance I get!
I believe storms don’t just come from sin .. God can send storms to test us, to grow us, to mature us. However, the storm I need to bring to God is the toxic relationship I have with my mother and how it is affecting the other relationships I have in my life.
Jesus Christ is king
My career path. I give it to Jesus.
The storm that i need to take to Jesus is: i`m trusting Him for heeling my heart, i`ve been dignosed with a heart condtion where it leaks, so it doesn`t close properly when it should. Because the blood then leaks my body goes in "overdrive" and cuts off my sense of touch and ability to move my arms. The doctor says it wont go away and there is nothing i can do to make it stop happening. And i also have very high iron levels. So this storm i take to Jesus. And i trust that it`s not what Jesus wants for me and that He died so that i may recieve healing. Amen.
A devil is a spirit and all negativity comes from a spirit.
My storm recent depression and running back and forth into my sin in the loneliness I feel
The Father wouldn’t have allowed this to not be spoken. Personally never heard it this way, even knowing all of what was spoken. I’m praying to Abba for direction in the way I should go in this life to fulfill my heart so full of His Joy. I don’t want to live every day the same or for myself.
GOD IS OPENING MY EYES TO SOME STUFF BUT I KNOW HES GOING TO MAKE A WAY …GODBLESS
i was getting herrassed at my job and i had to quit my job ! but im taking this storm to jesus
Thank you for this video brother, been feeling down in the dumps, struggling with a majority of things, but thank the lord for being all merciful and not letting us stay on the ground, he continue to pick me up and push me forward ❤️💪🏼🙏🏼
My Storm is Lust, Anger, and Just living in Autopilot/Lack of Motivation for anything. I resonted so much when you didnt want to build the crib lol, my wife built it instead because I hate building things. But I want to be a Ephesians Husband man, that spoke to me.
Thanks bro
Incredible words brother. The storm of this season has been related to my job and where the Lord has me in a long term sense. I need direction for sure, but I'm confident in the promise of His mercy. Our God is a God of order and I believe that order will come from this chaos.
Same. Amen!
I’m scared I might have sold my soul I got intrusive thoughts and I’m scared I am praying to Jesus right now
Amen my storm is addiction I’ve been struggling for awhile I’m praying I know Jesus will give me deliverance!!!
My storm is health anxiety I have been concerned with my health for many months now and all the doctors say I’m fine I’m learning how to have faith in Jesus but is kinda hard with my young mind. I ask for freedom in Jesus name
I've been going through a lot of storms: loneliness, mental health, envy, comparison, sadness, but I know it's going to pass because Jesus already gave me the victory!
My storm is probably my sin lately and my overthinking..I’ve been trying to control things that I can’t,and ending up hurting my self or sinning trying to find comfort or satisfaction but I realize now that I need to let God control and give it to Jesus and stop worrying “for does worrying add an hour to one’s life more less than take one..?”
Been struggling with overthinking too and looking for comfort by endlessly scrolling on youtube. I'll pray for you sister, pray for me as well
@@Jessy-LoveOneAnother ofcourse love!
My storm right now is in parenting and how anger and my emotions take over because right now it’s a daily battle with my 18 year old in some way.
This truth today will help me! Thank you!
John 14:27
Peace I leave with you, my peace I give unto you: not as the world giveth, give I unto you. Let not your heart be troubled, neither let it be afraid.
The storms I'm going through involve love, work, a home of my own, and church. Or a lack thereof. I wouldn't normally comment about this sort of thing, but I've been fasting and I wasn't even sure what I was fasting about until this video's question at the end. I give my storms up to Jesus.
My storm: Lust, depression and spiritual laziness. For 6 years i have fallen to lust and for about 2 months I've been going through depression I've never experienced before. To the point that sometimes i feel like i don't belong here. But last night i just watched some of your videos and they woke me up as a christian.
Friends at church have hurt me to the point that as a pastor's kid(19) i don't know if its okay to move to a new church where i can start afresh and renew myself. I pray God gives me the answer.
I have a problem with the flat under my flat. Recently, very evil, loud neighbors moved our and I finally after over a year could experience peace and silence. Now a gas detector or maybe a alarm battery started beeping. Maybe this sound is not that annoying but it is repetitive and it IS there.... Please pray for this, I just want to have peace and live in silence. Also please pray for my Mom to get a new job, right now she is working in a hellhole. Bless you all in Jesus name
My storm is anxiety, Iv'e dealt with it a lot and I know I will get through it because of Jesus. I keep praying he will heal me, and I will continue to. Thank you for this video it helped, god bless amen! ❤
My storm is anxiety and emotional eating. Both have been horrible for me for years.
Amen brother. Loneliness and temptation.
Learning how to stand my ground. Not give in to sexual temptations. Sometimes I’m lonely so look for love it attention if. It received at times I can go to lust. But other times it’s just me willingly doing it. I wanna do better. But I rlly need to flee, I want freedom. Ik the devil just wants me to be lukewarm. It’s the only thing he can do.
I feel like I'm battling with multiple versions of myself. Which should be lead. But like you said, after writing this, I'm taking it to Jesus. That's the storm in right now. Thank you for your sermon.
