    This sermon encourages listeners to prioritize God's will over their own desires and preferences. It reminds us that God's plans for our lives are always better than our own, even if we can't always understand or see the bigger picture. By submitting to His will, we can experience true fulfillment and joy, and ultimately live a life that honors Him.

    ET I’ve been watching you for a couple months now, God’s been speaking. I wrote on my vision board that I would be a millionaire by 28, and that i would change the world. Today is my 25th birthday, God told me if I want to change the world, and i want to be a millionaire by 28, I have to give him all all all my money and step in faith right now. I didn’t have even 2 grand in my account but I stepped. This may sound crazy, but God told me I got faith like Moses, Noah, David, Samson. I’m currently on a wild ride, he told me I would talk to you. My Faith is strong!!

      Don't Look @ The Now I Touch And Agree With You He
      Said He Would Do It & He Will
      1. DON'T MOVED BY WHAT YOU FEEL....
      2. DON'T BE MOVED BY WHAT YOU HEAR.....
      3. DON'T BE MOVED BY WHAT YOU SEE....
      Only Be Moved By The Word Of God In Which You Believe!

    • @brendonloux7469
      @brendonloux7469 ปีที่แล้ว +4

      @@bendestiny7434it’s always a battle brother. The struggle doesn’t stop. It’s about understanding that God’s way for you life is best. That doesn’t mean his way is gonna be smooth sailing, it’s in fact the opposite. God is trying to mold you into who you need to be to accomplish what he put you in this earth for. Keep fighting the good fight, become aware that all your thoughts are not your own. God Bless You Brother, seems to me like God already planted the seed in you, just keep working and you’ll see what it grows into. 💯💪🏻

    Amen! I had a breakthrough last Saturday, fasting for about 48 hours, prayed and prayed and prayed, and had a deep connection with God our father, and the most incredible part wS a felt Jesus holding my hand telling me to trust and believe. Ever since then the light in me has never shined so much and I have not gotten mad, angry, upset, and in the name of Jesus rebuke Satan and demons from affecting me or my family. Thank you for this message. I now EVERYDAY, ALL DAY, I pray because I know I can't do this alone and understand we were put on this earth to worship, love, and live for our heavenly father in heaven, our Lord and God. Thank you Jesus. Amen
