@@SunshinePsalms Amen
Amen. Thank you so much. I really needed to hear that right now . Bless you 🙏
I need to see hearing into my heartbeat for my heartbreak is shattered in wordlessly just hurt
Amen & God Bless Everyone
“Every believer has places of brokenness, I need you to know this so you don’t quit.” Instantly started crying 😭
Thank you I needed this
Mercy!!! I NEEDED THIS!!! I have no idea which direction to turn. LORD HELP!!!🥲
Yes 🙌🏼
There is no stopping what's coming 🙏❤
I feel just like you
One thing I have come to truly realize is prayer really does work!! I believe with all my heart that God can and will get my kids sober, just like he did for me!!
This man's ministry is STRAIGHT from heaven!
I second that!
So true. God is using him mightily.
Definitely and real
Factssss
Yes..it is! Glory to God for Pastor's obedience.
"The thorn came from the Enemy but grace came from God..... God's purpose will prevail."
In minutes 11-13 when you addressed the lies Satan plants in our heads during the silence, I began to cry because I thought that voice was mine and I was struggling to shut myself up and keep believing... the enemy has a name and it isn't my flesh and blood that im fighting! Thank you Pastor for speaking God’s truths!
That's the part that hit me right my in feels too
God's silence is comforting for those who have made peace with the fact that He is God. I'm comfortable with God's silence because it's like sharing a comfortable silence with your best friend. They don't need to say what they mean and explain themselves to you because you know them and how they feel about you. Silence speaks as loudly as words do, I have learnt to be still and know. God has been speaking to me about keeping quiet in the face of offense, to battle to stay in God's peace.
How do I get ahold of the pastor
Can I just say that this WHOLE Sermon was soooooo good! I swear, I got the chills even as I repeated listening to it right now. God, you are sooooo good! You remain faithful at all times. Thank you Jesus 😊! Bless your Son who has no idea what an impact he has with your word, EVERYDAY... Thanks Man of God, Ps. Steven Furtick! 🙏🏾🇿🇦 Love from South Africa, Johannesburg...
Hey look I didn't even like him at 1st I've been in charlotte nc all my life, but out of nowhere I started listening to his sermons one day and that one day was very recent. Haven't stopped looking at his sermons on repeat non-stop everyday😊🙏❤
EXACTLY as Listened to it repeatedly.....I just discovered this guy for myself like a month ago. (Sounding like a valley girl) lol. No seriously I already know it is no chance encounter I've happened upon this character that seems to be speaking right to my core personally. Keep this stuff coming as fast as you can STEVEN FURTICK I been standing at the mouth of the cave for as long as I can remember. Thank you for your excellent effort and superb delivery.....bless you
I've watched the whole version many times. There's only one other pasture on TH-cam that I watch. That would be Pastor Jake's
Hi what's the name of the full sermon I'm looking for it
God I want to leave this cave now! I want your purpose for my life; I desire to carry out that ministry that you have for me to do...😭help me Lord! I have no strength of my own. Amen
There's not one broken vessel that God can't mend
I want all that God has to offer. Lord help all your children to rely on your guidance and mercy .
Not even through watching this and Pastor you somehow know my life right now and you speak to me daily about my life and feelings that I have everyday!!! Amen I needed this today so bad thank you Jesus for this message
It's Jesus that knows your life. Not the pastor, he is just the messenger
It's God who knows our life and circumstances, God speaks through someone so tha Pastor is one of them, It's never a man, it's always God
Gdm. @@perfectlyimperfect3082
Don't forget about our Father GoD, His Holy Ghost/Holy Spirit speak'n thru the messenger/Pastor Steven Furtick.
(God the Father, God the Son & God the Holy Spirit). Per the Holy Bible.
Heather, it's God, my dear heart. He reached out and spoke to you today through His servant Steven. I'm praying for you right now too ❤
Thank you all so very much . You have all helped my day in big ways. Please all know my praise and thanks is always to God and that Pastor is just his messenger!! Amen glory be to god for you all🙏🏼🙏🏼🙏🏼🙏🏼❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️
The Authority in the Name of Jesus is my defender and weapon in my warfares. All trials I go through is nothing compared to the the victory He has for me 🙏 🙌 Hallelujah, God's purpose will prevail
"It's not about the thorn it's the story you tell yourself about the thorn."
Thank You Jesus for all You have done

I can honestly say that I have tried to understand the word. BUT YOU, YOU DELIVER IT PERFECTLY EVERYTIME!!! IF IT WASN'T FOR YOU IDK WHERE I'D BE..I have a very very long way to go but I know I'm trying it's so hard everyday being so Alone..n at the mouth of the cave. I'm struggling right now and you always make it better. I just want you to see yourself as God n the rest of the World does!!! You Are Wonderfully Blessed and then some. I see n hear what you struggle with but please know..That's the devil because you are SOO GODLY N GOOD HE CAN'T STAND IT!!! Please Pray for me if you can.

"Then Jesus told him, 'Because you have seen me, you have believed; blessed are those who have not seen and yet have believed.' ”
This message was a great blessing for me 🙂 really needed this
So Let God bless everyone with this message
God bless you pastor Amen😄😄
The Thorn came
From the enemy, but The Grace came
From God.
This was for me! Lord...help me change my story in the silence! Therefore...your grace is sufficient.
This message really touched me. Thank you Pastor Steven for reminding me that His grace is sufficient for my struggles.
Pain hurts thorns suck but this message is on point for my life and now ptl I love this pastor and Jesus is Lord amen
So on point in my life pain daily and all he said resonates with where I am and so needed this word .ptl🙌🔥🙏
Thank you Jesus for today’s word! My strength comes from you! Thank you Pastor Steven for always speaking his truth on our lives! Happy Tuesday everyone! Sending lots of love from Houston, TX 🙏🏻💪🙌
Amen
Hey Tabitha, Pastor Steven and Elevation Worship will be in Houston at the Toyota Center Halloween night!
My husband needs to hear this message but is not a place right now where he can hear it. Please pray for him and pray for an opportunity for me share this with him. God purpose will go on!! Amen!!
You DO NOT get to change your thorn. But you can change your story. 🙌🏻
I have to remind myself daily and sometimes hourly that those thoughts in my head did not come from the Lord. I wish I didn't still have the battle but I will win because of Jesus and his grace! I used to think I had to be perfect before I even came to Him.
I've been through so many situations that it could have been a hundred different lives. I've been able to understand so many and help others because I've been through so much and survived. I usually don't share anything unless someone needs it personally. I don't want to act like I'm feeling sorry for myself because I am not. It's a blessing because God help me through all of it! I'm not expecting a perfect life. I want to think I deserve more than crumbs. You are a blessing Pastor Steven. The Lord does use you as His messenger... thank you for this ministry in Jesus Holy name Amen
THE THORNE COME FROM THE ENEMY! BUT THE GRACE COME FROM GOD!
Thanks to the Holy Spirit that speech came to me. I was telling myself a very bad story in the silence. Thanks God, you're for sure the provider of everything!
God forgive me for being afraid of the truth and changes. Lord I feel revived
My thorn is cancer. Because I have gained the strength to survive it and start (possibly complete) my vision from God.
Oh my God! Why am I at this cave? What am I doing here in shame and disgrace when your grace is available? 😭

Thank you for your sermons for allowing God to use you to bless so many. ❤️❤️
“What are u running around to people to get what can only come from God”
Yesterday was Wednesday the 10th of Nov. I felt as if I had been drugged. I couldn't wake up and get myself together. I have been getting up every morning no matter what or how I feel. I'm trying to become a productive person. I've spent way to long in the darkness of my depression. But yesterday was different. I couldn't get up. But this morning I did and feel a little better. I'm back on track today. I don't want to be up and around but if I'm going to be a productive person again I have to get up, take a shower, clean house. I won't give up. And thanking God for each day, whether good or bad is part of my practice each day.
Let's give our heavenly father all praise and glory thank God for all of his blessings and forgiveness in Jesus name amen hallelujah hallelujah glory to God 🙏
The love and grace of the Lord is sufficient for all of us🙌
Testimony: I had a swollen foot and pain, especially after walking for about 2-3 weeks. I prayed for healing several times and yesterday I noticed that the swelling and pain went away and my foot is healed, Glory to God.
Thank you man of God for ALWAYS keeping it Real!!!!
I love how every time I see your message it’s where I’m at on this day . The word of encouragement and wisdom which is needed for me to keep pressing on despite what is against me.
I need to keep turning and trusting in the Lord for all things as he is my source of help in all circumstances of my life. And not people or the world . I’ve learnt even in the the midst of the Lord’s God silence is the testing of your faith to see / know if you will keep believing holding on to the truth which was spoken to your heart by his voice of the Holy Spirit . And standing in faith and walking by faith not by sight . As our God works by faith nothing pleases him more than faith.
I’m always have opposition, people coming against me as I believe walking by faith in to know what is true by the word of God and his voice which is spoken to me. I also know his ways are not our ways either , so he will do things / answers our prayers in ways our minds or knowledge or mankind can’t understand .
I love how your heart is on fire as you teach / preach the way of the Lord as you shine the light believing what you speak too.
I know why I have this health issue and I know God uses it for me to stay humble turning to him always relying on his grace and strength and wisdom and knowledge. Trusting no one but him alone in the fullness of who he is. He will also guide one into knowing who to trust or not to trust for the purpose for you and his kingdom, the plans he had set before time .
Bless you sir !!!
Yes Lord yes.i thank you GOD for your Grace is sufficient for me.hallelujah to the Lamb of GOD who taketh away the sins of the world 🙏 Amen
I literally lifted my hands up in the air here at work as soon as I heard it. “It’s in the silence!” My co workers at my weekend job have been trying to deal with. They gossip and lie about me because I’m close with the owners and I let them know when the staff are drinking and lying about me amongst themselves. I won’t give up though and I let them know that. This job is for my grand babies future since their mom (my daughter) passed away 8/23/20. The Devil is trying to put a stop to my dream. I told the owners to put me on teams with those who speak against me. I have to show them what God really looks like and make them feel accountable for what they do or say by my success and stubbornness. Even if it hurts. Grace will save me
@@davidramee1833 Why do you keep putting this?
GODS PURPOSE WILL PREVAIL!
Wow!!! JESUS is my SAVIOR and he has used You Pastor Steven to show me that he was going to use me and now he's used you to bring me out of my cave and into the light.i almost gave up and you through CHRIST have gave me hope and no matter what awaits in the future GODS got this. I love a real man of GOD and I know you are for real and that you care. Thank you and your whole church family. I feel the love. I have some things I have to go through in the near future but I will get to your church as soon as I can. Good LORD willing
Yoooooo Pastor Furtik this message was whispered to me with the overall message of being consistent in Him! And sometimes because of my culture, broken childhood, escaped death in a few ways because of His grace and the love He shown me in the midst of the turmoil and pain that was meant to take me out made me vow to pledge allegiance to God but there’s the opposer but God through this message confirmed He’s still speaking to me and I’m worthy to not let my thorns stop the grace of God abounding in my life, so I hear…”go forth daughter”! May peace and blessings be upon your household 🔥🔥🔥✊🏾💪🏾🙏🏾‼️
The thorn came from the devil but God's grace and God's purpose 🙏
Hallelujah my God the story in the silence trusting him with alot in the silence because is power is made perfect in our weakness.
Grace for my sin.. Grace for my shame.. Grace for my mistakes.. God's Grace.. South Africa.
That's exactly right. Life would be boring if we didn't have any thornes. We need to know we are not perfect.
Otherwise we would forget the fact we Need God.
The one who conquers over death and life
Thank you for your prayers for this is a testimony my brother had open heart surgery almost didn’t make it, my sister found out she had cancer, she wanted to give up and I also had surgery all in a month. But satan lost because our faith in God was with us heard our prayers God always win.
Genesis 15:13-14 is unfolding and your judgement stands, no rapture running for those that have benefited from the destruction of His Chosen People and have followed false doctrine and worshipped graven images. All Praises To The Most High Creator, Amen
Yes the devil has no Authority over our life God said my Grace is sufficient for you Paul say who now rejoice in my suffferings for you and fill up that which is behind of the affliction of christ in my flesh for his body's sake which is the church we are complete in christ be still and know that I am God

For being open and honest and vulnerable. Thank you, so much.
God’s Purpose will PREVAIL
In the quiet there is silence of the scary unknown, what is next.The daily, monthly, yearly quietness. When the deep vanquish hits I know as sad as I am God always does something so out of the box.
In Isaiah 41:10 - 13. It states let nothing terrify you. I read that and cling to that verse. It goes deep in my soul. It is like his hand sweeping away the evil and giving me peace as I walk through this.
Therefore. ✨👑✨ His Grace is sufficient 🍞🍷
It's always like he speaks to me directly every time! Praise God!
