Amazing I came across a snappy version of this on Facebook and eventhough I didn’t want to watch the full one,the Holy Spirit kept reminding me to come here and finish the whole video. I was put on hell in a rapture dream I had thirty day ago due to unforgiveness
Watching her sermons has changed my life. I’m able to forgive, I had bitterness and anger but I have got peace in surrendering everything to God no matter how I wanted to hold on to it all. I have finally found peace and now I’m understanding my path of salvation. I can’t thank God for her enough. May God continue using her .
Colossians 1:21 basically, This means we, apart from Christ, are enemies of God. So people can be an enemy of God. Not just Satan.This is where she is wrong. Make sure you do your own reading of the scriptures always. Once you give your life to Christ and do his will and follow his commandments, you are no longer his enemy.
@@intention21 Ephesians 6:12 For we do not wrestle against flesh and blood, but against the rulers, against the authorities, against the cosmic powers over this present darkness, against the spiritual forces of evil in the heavenly places. This is a spiritual battle.
@@SisterDejathat is true too. You’re right. But what I said is also true. People can become an enemy of God. And sure we fight against the spirits and all of those principalities.. but if we follow those principalities and do evil, we are still held accountable for what we do. If we ask for forgiveness, then that will change things.
I forgive the people from my old job who offended and racially harassed me and other employees. I forgive the two house mates who were toxic. I forgive the people who i genuinely loved as sisters yet hated me and maltreated me. I plead for forgiveness for them.
Since discovering Pastor Stephanie on the 10th of March, 2023, my life has not remained the same. She has been a huge part of my spiritual growth. I can’t even begin to describe the depth. I thank God for your life and ministry, for yielding to God to be a voice to this generation. May you receive double portion anointing. God bless you real good!
This preacher is contradicting the Bible 😮 how can you believe someone who says ‘you will go to hell if you are a sinner’ ? Didnt God Himself come down to earth for that reason?! He came down knowing we are sinners and dont deserve the salvation, but He offered a free gift of salvation!! People wake up , heaven is earned not through your works and how good you are but through your faith! Trying not to sin is a fruit of the relationship with God and we are called to do so, but it doesn’t define us anymore! Ephesians 2:8-9 (ESV) 8 For by grace you have been saved the through faith. And this is not your own doing; it is the gift of God, 9 not a result of works, so that no one may boast. John 3:16 (ESV) 16 "For God so loved the world, that he gave his only Son, that whoever believes in him should not perish but have eternal life.
She's not contradicting. You have to accept that gift of salvation,and that is Jesus Christ. Jesus said"Iam the way...so without the way you are going no where.
@@Thea.v.d.v I'm really sorry to reply late but my brother in Christ please when you read John 3:16 remember to continue to verse 17 also because you seem to be focusing only on Verse 16 of which verse 17 is the one you should really consider. And stop misleading people from the right path.😏
I was so challenged listening to this sermon it felt almost as if I was part of the congregation in real time. I am willing to forgive my half sister and paternal aunts and uncles who abused us emotionally and physically after my father's death. My siblings and I suffered terribly at their hands, and only God could redeem us from them as people kept their distance. I forgive the boy that got me pregnant when I was only 19 years old whom I was dating at the time and he felt like getting me pregnant sneakily was the only way to keep us together I forgive my mom's cousin who molested me when I was around 7 and 8 yrs even though I never got any closure I'm willing to forgive everyone that hurt me deeply so that God can move deeply in my life

@Cleo.and.Ranger Shalom my brother. But how else would you have her put it? If we remain in sin even after Jesus has come to rescue us there is no hope for us, that's what the Bible says in Hebrews 10:26-39 For if we go on sinning deliberately after receiving the knowledge of the truth there no longer remains a sacrifice for sins but a fearful expectation of judgement and a fury of fire that will consume the adversaries. Read through till verse 39 James 4:4 You adulterous people do you not know that friendship with the world is enmity with God? Whoever therefore be a friend with the world is an enemy of God. Unfortunately anyone that keeps on sinning "intentionally and habitually" even after getting saved will go to hell my brother. I'm not saying as a believer you will not stumble, there's grace that covers us when we sin but if we live in sin perpetually that's a different issue altogether.
@@Thea.v.d.vthat's the problem with believers who are blinded with the gospel of the grace is enough!!! Yes it is but when u keeping sinning coz Jesus's grace saves, God can't work I un clean vessels like you who keeps sinning coz our God forgives. It's high time u pray to God for the spirit of properly understanding and interprenting the word
GIRLLLLLLLLLLL!!!!! This Proverbs 4:23 verse has been FOLLOWING me all day and now I sat down with my dinner to tune in to a Stephanie Ike video and she posts this?!?!? Glory be to God I am READY for the message
40+ minute sermon - Uploaded 10 minutes ago - 60likes -😂😂 I see I'm not the only one who likes Steph's videos before watching😂😂😂😂😂😂 I'm in good company
Now it’s been 29 mins and 187 likes 👍🏻 she’s been so helpful to so so many of us 🥰❤️🩹🙏🏻 Praise God for her ability to communicate the word so effectively ❤
When I come across a video of anything especially a sermon, I will hit the Like button and sometimes save it to the watch later list, so that I can find it again later. Once I started doing that it made everything a lot easier, lol
God has allowed her to be such a blessing in her teachings to my heart, mind, and spirit. I'm so grateful that someone shared her with me a little over a year ago.
The same thing that happened to Stephanie with the witch disuguising as a friend and housemate happened to me in 2021, the only difference is I wasn't going to church as I had backslid but God still warned me of the girl and I escaped death at that time, just like Steph I had so many Qs about her demeanor but I always brushed it aside. God came to me and told me she is a witch and that i need to separate from her.I chased her away and God showed me she was on an assignment to kill, had I not listened to God I would be dead today. I thank God for His mercy because I wasn't walking faithfully with Him but Pastor Steph was. Yet He showed up for us both! This is telling about God. Telling that indeed He is faithful even in the midst of an unfaithful people God remains faithful to us (2 Timothy 2:13) His sun shines on the just and unjust alike (Matthew 5:45) and while I was still a sinner that's when Christ died for me (Romans 5)
" If I ever found pleasure in someone downfall in someone's demise it's corrupted my vessel it's not affecting them the way I think... Let God be the judge. Trust in His justice not yours." This is powerful
"Your heart sets the boundaries of how God can use you". The heart is powerful, it's the proof of life from the breath of God. I am so glad that Jesus loves me! This sermon speaks to me, I want to share it!
Was in the middle of watching another Steph sermon, lately she has had such a significant impact on my journey with God. Saw this one pop up. So thankful 🙏
This word is so timely. I was raised by a not so loving father. This is a man that rejected me and didnt believe i was his child. Unfortunately for me im 29 and still under his roof. A couple of days i got into trouble for allegedly not returning his call. I wasn't even given a chance to explain he just wouldnt have it and i had returned his call but his number wasnt going through the whole day. And for ive struggled to honour such a person. But i thank God for you stephanie because i qouldnt want to miss heaven because of this.
Literally just spoke to the LORD about the heaviness of my heart and asked him to help me to forgive. This sermon was needed and timely. Thank you JESUS 🙌🏽🙌🏽 your still listening and you still care. Hallelujah

Mentor from a million miles. I love you Stephanie. May God keep using you as a vessel to shower us with Wisdom , Insight and prophecy 💫💫💫🙌🙌🙌🙌🔥🔥🔥🔥💯💯💯💯💯🎉🎉🎉🎉
I spend the worst week of my life, I was lost, alone with a case of sexual abuse in my family.. And now this message, every single word was for me ❤ it's hard to forgive but I trust that the Lord will giveme strong again. God bless u' amazing woman! I watched your reels on IG and now here .. This sermon changes my life. Saludos from Argentina 🇦🇷
I was task by my cell leader to share about the heart. I tried to research by nothing coming so I prayed and this comes out on my TH-cam when I have my break. Usually I watch preaching during breaktime and this is a good example I can share. Glory to God...

@@Thea.v.d.v for God so loved the world He gave his son, and who shall believe in Him shall be saved… not all will go to heaven, especially if you do not believe in Jesus. It states that. Read your Bible again who will be going to be with with Jesus and who won’t. Don’t pick and choose scriptures to continue sinning and not transforming. God bless you as I will keep striving to be like my Father. If you don’t agree with Stephanie Ike, don’t listen. I’m sure you have many speakers who will itch your ears. A few to go over- 1 Cor. 6:9 Matt. 7:21-23 John 14:6 Revelation 21:8 John 3:3 Luke 13:3
Such a good word. I have been studying honor by mother because I’ve never had a father and honestly I’ve never felt like I had a mother either, and as I have recently surrendered to God and then baptized and truly believe in his purpose for my life, I really struggle with honoring my mother, so I really love this message as God is still working on me in this way because it’s hard to honor someone who doesn’t honor their role in your life but I do like her notion that we’re not honoring that person or honoring who God has called them to be for us. Also, I release the spirit of my foster sister because truly people do come into your life for seasons, and when we drag them into a season, they don’t belong. They destroy our season in the process and I really feel her on spirits working within people that they don’t even know and loving a person so much that it hurts you so I released my foster sister for my life, and I love her from a distance. Thank you Jesus for this word amen.
It took just this one sermon and I can testify that I have felt peace and God’s love after watching this. It didn’t take a long prayer or hours of fasting. The Word of God truly just delivers and I have received my deliverance today. Father guard this testimony and state of heart of mine by Your blood for Your glory that I would be a worthy vessel
Watching from Zambia African, am actually preparing a trip to visit the Potter's House LA and give a testimony how the Ministry has treamendously changed my life. Pastor Sarah and pastor Stephanie you have really impacted my like. Am proud of myself coz am a completely a changed person. I can can Feel it within my spirit that am close to God like never before. Thank you Pastor for pointing us to Jesus. You are such a blessing. With lots of Love....
I am just laughing to myself and im amazed at how God works. You know that part about forgiveness God worked on my heart for me to forgive someone who had wronged me only for Him to tell me to Pray for the same person a few days later....Now I understand cause I kept wondering why God was insisting on me forgiving this person....this is eye opening!
Being brought up from a broken home my siblings ang i struggle to live our lives blaming our dad for every downfall of our lives and this message was really challenging and powerful that brought me to tears,im really blessed,i want to extend my boundary by forgiving my dad and receive what God has store for me Holy Spirit help me to fight the good fight of faith..amen Jesus is lord!!
God always shows up! This morning I was asking God for answers with issues I'm experiencing in my life, didn't this message just come on by itself! I had to sit down & listen. What a Faithful God we serve!!! Crying like a baby 😭😭😭 Thank u Holy Spirit. 🙌🏾
I needed this so much. Especially during the holiday season. I have been asking God to help with with my unforgiveness. I say I forgive but then the pain of how I am treated hits me. I feel I have a right for the way I feel but then I realize that this is not what Jesus would do. This has been on my mind every day and night. Thank you for giving me the answers to what I knew but needed to hear to press forward the right way. Confirmation is a powerful thing 🙌
Father lord protect my heart jealously for your calling upon my life. Woman of God., may God continue to empower you, more wisdom,more grace,and spiritual energy, in Jesus might name Amen.❤❤❤🙏
This has got to be a go to sermon for every believer, we need to download it and visit it often because sometimes we take real forgiveness for granted 😢
I was dealing with that spirit of offense this morning and prayed about my heart posture, then this video arrived on my TH-cam timeline and drew me! Thank you Lord!
This sermon has come to an important time in my life. I’ve been questioning the anger and resentment that I’ve been holding onto for so long. It’s like my body is finally telling me to let go of these emotions. They do nothing but destroy the heart along with the relationship between you and God. It’s the moment I started to open my heart all these emotions have just been flowing through me. Thank you for sharing this powerful message, I truly needed these words.
God thankyou for this word🙏.. Today I have been having a heavy heart, bitterness all over me towards my boss.. Been seeing this mama like she hates me.. But to my knowledge according to the word of God I have been the one who is bad.. I have forgive and let go.. I need a pure heart.. No hatred again.. I Am a happy soul❤️🙏
Thank God for this timely word! It popped up to me this morning after receiving a betrayal call yesterday that felt like a physical wound to my heart. But through it all God is love, and in his love is justice and mercy. God cares about our heart and he wants to heal the broken hearted and carry the burdens we’ve held. Surrender it to Jesus and live in the freedom he freely gives to us. Love your brothers and also enemies, know the true enemy which is Satan. And most importantly be discerning, test all spirits, we don’t always have to learn a lesson. We can see before the lesson happens. Thank you Pst Stephanie and Thank you Heavenly Father
I've been having major issues at work... going through warfare!!! This message popped up on my feed just in time. Father, renew my heart and create a right spirit within me, Oh God!!! Im gonna stay right there! 🙏🏾🙏🏾🙏🏾
I’m thankful to the Holy Spirit for directing me to this word today and thank you Stephanie for being a vessel of God. I am enlightened and my heart is restored. God bless you ❤❤❤
Steph, you are a rare gem a force to reckon with. Your teachings are on another level. Thank you for allowing God to deliver such a powerful message to us.l am learning. May His Grace lead you always. ❤
Thank you ! Thank you! Thank you! I have been struggling with forgiveness for so many years but I am getting better now. Every day I start my day with our father in heaven by Ntokozo Mbambo, Now you have delivered something fresh about forgiveness. My enemies out there, I forgive you for the wrongs you have done to me, MATHEW 6:14 I forgive you all but I don't have to hug you, dine or chill with you, or trust you to watch my back because I don't know whether the evil spirit still lives in you, or still employed by Satan. My enemies, I pray for you to be delivered, I cover you with the blood of Jesus. Amen 🙏
For me, this is Timely wisdom in relating with people and healing from past hurts. People are not my enemy, the spirit at work in them is my enemy and the wisdom to discern spirits will help me war differently. Only keep friends who are yielded to the Holy Spirit bearing in mind that there is no vaccum in the spirit, it's either they are yielded to the Holy Spirit or they are a readily available vessel for the Devil. Honor is the ability to see people through the Lens of God and not through the things they have done in their past. Thank you so much Pastor Stephanie ike Okafor 🎉🎉🎉 Sending Love from Nigeria 🇳🇬🇳🇬🇳🇬🇳🇬
God bless you great woman of God. I have been listening to you almost every week, there is such a grace upon you. God has been using you to bless me in the season that I am in and may God receive all the glory. More and more grace upon you in Jesus mighty name.
I am hearing this again, I will continue to listen to this and other messages from you. Apostle Femi Lazarus is also dealing with this issue. I am inclined to these vessels of God. Their teachings has really helped me. Despite my age I listened to these two like a child ready to learn. Father please keep them, preserve them in Jesus mighty name Aaaaaaaameeeeeen 🙏🏼
Wow.. this is a timely message, my household and I are surely blessed. Just when I was reading shepherding a child's heart to guide me in parenting my daughter, moulding her heart and bringing her up in the ways of the Lord, then I come across this powerful teaching.
For we are not contending against flesh and blood, but against the principalities.... hmmmm. God keep creating clean hearts in us, Ps. 51:10😊And that timing is insanneee! Glory to God
This was right on time. I had been praying to understand and be free from feeling broken.... I need to fix my heart! "They don't know what they're doing"!! God bless you!! I didn't know Stephanie had her own channel. I am so late! Thank you God!! Amen Amen Amen
7:14 I have heard this before in my deliberations with God and have been used for it multiple times. It is real guys. Forgiveness is such an dynamic working of the Spirit that I don't think the Church is ready for.
Watching this sermon with tears in my eyes because that is an answer to my prayers this week ... i asked the Lord to teach me about forgiveness and this morning , this sermon just appears on my fyp... Thank you Lord❤
Well now. Who's the grateful fella today, for Gods good grace in that my wife sent me this one to listen to on my prayer walk. Have been listening to her videos here the last few days :)
Holy Spirit really moves in this message. I feel breaking down lots of unforgiveness toward my parents understanding deeper how my lack of pure heart stands against me in life and also against lots of blessings in life. Not accept Gods standards of love. Im really humbled...I been very angry, defended and selfrightous...I lack lot of Spiritual discernment about Satans strategys. Need pray more , not allow myself be the judge - prideful- but guard my heart and cleanse my heart to see God.❤❤❤
Oh my Jesus! I am Free from the bondage of unforgiveness. Jesus has restored back my peace tonight. May God forever kept you in his arms not to fall but to sail through from any attacks set by your enemies servant of God. Thanks for this incredible sermon, i am blessed to meet you here in your platform 🙏
Whew, when I tell you that I needed to hear this 🥹. There were a number of things I had questions about, and this sermon clarified them. God is so good. May God bless you Ps Stephanie, you are such an obedient vessel woman of God!
In the early hours of today 12/6/24 the Lord led me to read Matt 17 which also addresses the matter of forgiveness and now I stumbled into this message, what else can I say than to say thank you Lord 🙏🏼. Because this must be a serious matter you want me to deal with. Father please help me on this matter, I need your help, I have been hurting, dear Lord wash every bitterness and pains with your precious blood from my heart and help me heal, please flood my heart with your love again and again in Jesus mighty name Aaaaaaaameeeeeen! Thank you Lord for using this your beautiful vessel. I will keep listening to this message until I see changes.
Today I had to testify. God has put convictions on my heart to start a new spiritual journey growth for the next months. I asked what it is that he wants to do during the journey and why it’s so important and he answered to Guard your heart and boundaries and I asked him to show me signs and confirmation and here it is. Loud and clear and all the other preachings I’ve been listening to has been exactly this . Thank You Pastor and thank you Lord
Been talking to God for forgiveness and not getting angry easily and this message was for me. Lord use me and I surrender
Reconciliation is not for everyone but forgiveness is.
How did u fathom this plz
God has been whispering to me all day to listen to you. Nothing specific but your name wouldn’t leave my brain. So here I am Lord. I surrender.
Amazing
I came across a snappy version of this on Facebook and eventhough I didn’t want to watch the full one,the Holy Spirit kept reminding me to come here and finish the whole video.
I was put on hell in a rapture dream I had thirty day ago due to unforgiveness
Watching her sermons has changed my life. I’m able to forgive, I had bitterness and anger but I have got peace in surrendering everything to God no matter how I wanted to hold on to it all. I have finally found peace and now I’m understanding my path of salvation. I can’t thank God for her enough. May God continue using her .
Amen. To God be the glory. I am happy for you.
Amen!!
I’m so happy for you sister

Telling that indeed He is faithful even in the midst of an unfaithful people God remains faithful to us (2 Timothy 2:13) His sun shines on the just and unjust alike (Matthew 5:45) and while I was still a sinner that's when Christ died for me (Romans 5)
Watching all the way from Zimbabwe, Africa. Pastor Steph you are such a blessing to our generation.

" If I ever found pleasure in someone downfall in someone's demise it's corrupted my vessel it's not affecting them the way I think... Let God be the judge. Trust in His justice not yours." This is powerful
To honour a man is to see him through the eyes of God , that is sooo deep , thanks for this revelation woman of God
"Your heart sets the boundaries of how God can use you". The heart is powerful, it's the proof of life from the breath of God. I am so glad that Jesus loves me! This sermon speaks to me, I want to share it!
Tomorrow is 1st June and I am about to start my own 30 day fast
Help me Jesus!
how’s it going ?
Hw is going sister?
Congratulations
How did it go?
Amen

I have fallen in love with Stephanie's preaching from the first day I heard her preach online.
She is full of wisdom
This word is so timely. I was raised by a not so loving father. This is a man that rejected me and didnt believe i was his child. Unfortunately for me im 29 and still under his roof. A couple of days i got into trouble for allegedly not returning his call. I wasn't even given a chance to explain he just wouldnt have it and i had returned his call but his number wasnt going through the whole day. And for ive struggled to honour such a person.
But i thank God for you stephanie because i qouldnt want to miss heaven because of this.
Literally just spoke to the LORD about the heaviness of my heart and asked him to help me to forgive. This sermon was needed and timely. Thank you JESUS 🙌🏽🙌🏽 your still listening and you still care. Hallelujah
Jesus is so faithful. I am grateful that he understands our humanity and doesn’t make it humiliating for us to rise to His standard.
❤❤❤
My favorite pastor I stopped forbicating because of your preaching woman of God!
You are my Christian role model I want to be an uncompromising woman of God like yourself.Speak the truth and truth alone
She's a modest pastor to many who are and many yet to be. She's a great blessing to this dispensation.
All her sermons are impactful.
I pray you give me spiritual discernment that even when I'm hurt I'm able to hear your voice instead of being corrupted by the enemy
Watching in Saudi Arabia originally from Uganda 🇺🇬🇺🇬thank you Jesus ❤❤

Watching from South Africa, I love it when God uses woman of wisdom like Stephenie.
This preacher is contradicting the Bible 😮 how can you believe someone who says ‘you will go to hell if you are a sinner’ ? Didnt God Himself come down to earth for that reason?! He came down knowing we are sinners and dont deserve the salvation, but He offered a free gift of salvation!! People wake up , heaven is earned not through your works and how good you are but through your faith! Trying not to sin is a fruit of the relationship with God and we are called to do so, but it doesn’t define us anymore!
Ephesians 2:8-9 (ESV)
8 For by grace you have been saved the through faith. And this is not your own doing; it is the gift of God, 9 not a result of works, so that no one may boast.
John 3:16 (ESV)
16 "For God so loved the world, that he gave his only Son, that whoever believes in him should not perish but have eternal life.
Mentor from a million miles. I love you Stephanie. May God keep using you as a vessel to shower us with Wisdom , Insight and prophecy 💫💫💫🙌🙌🙌🙌🔥🔥🔥🔥💯💯💯💯💯🎉🎉🎉🎉
Wow , the enemy is not the person but the spirit in them 👏
"For you to be used as a Vessel, you must be a Pure Vessel" Love this❤👍🏾
I spend the worst week of my life, I was lost, alone with a case of sexual abuse in my family.. And now this message, every single word was for me ❤ it's hard to forgive but I trust that the Lord will giveme strong again. God bless u' amazing woman! I watched your reels on IG and now here .. This sermon changes my life. Saludos from Argentina 🇦🇷
Praying the Lord gives you strength 💚🙏🏾
The Lord is your Strength. May the Holy Spirit guide you.
I was task by my cell leader to share about the heart. I tried to research by nothing coming so I prayed and this comes out on my TH-cam when I have my break. Usually I watch preaching during breaktime and this is a good example I can share. Glory to God...
I know I prayed for more of her sermons for years and when we ask, we shall receive. She has been pushing out more sermons. Thanks you Jesus!!!

@@Thea.v.d.v for God so loved the world He gave his son, and who shall believe in Him shall be saved… not all will go to heaven, especially if you do not believe in Jesus. It states that. Read your Bible again who will be going to be with with Jesus and who won’t. Don’t pick and choose scriptures to continue sinning and not transforming. God bless you as I will keep striving to be like my Father. If you don’t agree with Stephanie Ike, don’t listen. I’m sure you have many speakers who will itch your ears. A few to go over-
1 Cor. 6:9
Matt. 7:21-23
John 14:6
Revelation 21:8
John 3:3
Luke 13:3
@@meagon177 girl who said that nonbelievers are going to heaven? I for sure didnt.. reading and understanding in my case isnt a problem.

Such a good word. I have been studying honor by mother because I’ve never had a father and honestly I’ve never felt like I had a mother either, and as I have recently surrendered to God and then baptized and truly believe in his purpose for my life, I really struggle with honoring my mother, so I really love this message as God is still working on me in this way because it’s hard to honor someone who doesn’t honor their role in your life but I do like her notion that we’re not honoring that person or honoring who God has called them to be for us. Also, I release the spirit of my foster sister because truly people do come into your life for seasons, and when we drag them into a season, they don’t belong. They destroy our season in the process and I really feel her on spirits working within people that they don’t even know and loving a person so much that it hurts you so I released my foster sister for my life, and I love her from a distance. Thank you Jesus for this word amen.
It took just this one sermon and I can testify that I have felt peace and God’s love after watching this. It didn’t take a long prayer or hours of fasting. The Word of God truly just delivers and I have received my deliverance today. Father guard this testimony and state of heart of mine by Your blood for Your glory that I would be a worthy vessel
❤
Watching from Zambia African, am actually preparing a trip to visit the Potter's House LA and give a testimony how the Ministry has treamendously changed my life. Pastor Sarah and pastor Stephanie you have really impacted my like. Am proud of myself coz am a completely a changed person. I can can Feel it within my spirit that am close to God like never before.
Thank you Pastor for pointing us to Jesus. You are such a blessing.
With lots of Love....
I am just laughing to myself and im amazed at how God works. You know that part about forgiveness God worked on my heart for me to forgive someone who had wronged me only for Him to tell me to Pray for the same person a few days later....Now I understand cause I kept wondering why God was insisting on me forgiving this person....this is eye opening!
Being brought up from a broken home my siblings ang i struggle to live our lives blaming our dad for every downfall of our lives and this message was really challenging and powerful that brought me to tears,im really blessed,i want to extend my boundary by forgiving my dad and receive what God has store for me Holy Spirit help me to fight the good fight of faith..amen Jesus is lord!!
God always shows up! This morning I was asking God for answers with issues I'm experiencing in my life, didn't this message just come on by itself! I had to sit down & listen. What a Faithful God we serve!!! Crying like a baby 😭😭😭 Thank u Holy Spirit. 🙌🏾
You can love a person but not bring them too close to yourself,.. Thank God.
Steph, you are smart spiritually& physically. Blessings to you.
I needed this so much. Especially during the holiday season. I have been asking God to help with with my unforgiveness. I say I forgive but then the pain of how I am treated hits me. I feel I have a right for the way I feel but then I realize that this is not what Jesus would do. This has been on my mind every day and night. Thank you for giving me the answers to what I knew but needed to hear to press forward the right way. Confirmation is a powerful thing 🙌
Father lord protect my heart jealously for your calling upon my life. Woman of God., may God continue to empower you, more wisdom,more grace,and spiritual energy, in Jesus might name Amen.❤❤❤🙏
More Grace to you Pastor Stephanie 🙏🇰🇪❤
Thank you for that Word 🙏🌹🌹🌹🇰🇪🇰🇪🇰🇪
Thank you from Kenya 🇰🇪
This has got to be a go to sermon for every believer, we need to download it and visit it often because sometimes we take real forgiveness for granted 😢
Pastor Stephanie,I love the way you preach, you touch my heart.Thank you.Praise Jesus!
I was dealing with that spirit of offense this morning and prayed about my heart posture, then this video arrived on my TH-cam timeline and drew me! Thank you Lord!
It's such a blessing each time I get to watch and listen to stephanie I learn something new everyday
Its my 1st time to listen to her sermon but i have decided to let go of what my mom did amd said to me,
This sermon has come to an important time in my life. I’ve been questioning the anger and resentment that I’ve been holding onto for so long. It’s like my body is finally telling me to let go of these emotions. They do nothing but destroy the heart along with the relationship between you and God. It’s the moment I started to open my heart all these emotions have just been flowing through me. Thank you for sharing this powerful message, I truly needed these words.
God thankyou for this word🙏.. Today I have been having a heavy heart, bitterness all over me towards my boss.. Been seeing this mama like she hates me.. But to my knowledge according to the word of God I have been the one who is bad.. I have forgive and let go.. I need a pure heart.. No hatred again.. I
Am a happy soul❤️🙏
So true ,some people give their heart to anybody instead of keeping God first.
Thank you Pastor Ike Okafor! Watching from the Bahamas 🇧🇸 😊
🙋🏽♀️ Watching from Bahamas also! 🇧🇸
Ok! I see y’all representing the 242 😁🙌🏽🇧🇸
Thank God for this timely word! It popped up to me this morning after receiving a betrayal call yesterday that felt like a physical wound to my heart. But through it all God is love, and in his love is justice and mercy. God cares about our heart and he wants to heal the broken hearted and carry the burdens we’ve held. Surrender it to Jesus and live in the freedom he freely gives to us. Love your brothers and also enemies, know the true enemy which is Satan. And most importantly be discerning, test all spirits, we don’t always have to learn a lesson. We can see before the lesson happens. Thank you Pst Stephanie and Thank you Heavenly Father
I've been having major issues at work... going through warfare!!! This message popped up on my feed just in time. Father, renew my heart and create a right spirit within me, Oh God!!! Im gonna stay right there! 🙏🏾🙏🏾🙏🏾
Something is about to happen and God is preparing my heart. I felt a deep sadden for my mother during certain moments of this sermon.
💚💚💚
"When you see your enemy right, you war differently" Very true. God bless
13:01 "... for they shall see God!" I agree, that when our heart is pure it allows us to see God's hand The "land of the living". Thank you Jesus!
Right.. Profound ❤
I’m thankful to the Holy Spirit for directing me to this word today and thank you Stephanie for being a vessel of God. I am enlightened and my heart is restored. God bless you ❤❤❤
I thank God for this woman of God for ministering such a powerful word and my whole mindset is changed
"when you see your enemy right, you war differently" or say you war rightly....thank you Pastor
We love you so much Pastor Stephanie. ❤️
Heavenly Father, please teach me to discern your voice. Amen 🙏🏾
May God continue using you, Stephanie ❤.
Steph, you are a rare gem a force to reckon with. Your teachings are on another level. Thank you for allowing God to deliver such a powerful message to us.l am learning.
May His Grace lead you always. ❤
Such a powerful and needed sermon. From today, I release and forgive my family members. Pray for them every time I think of them. God is at work.
Thank you ! Thank you! Thank you!
I have been struggling with forgiveness for so many years but I am getting better now. Every day I start my day with our father in heaven by Ntokozo Mbambo,
Now you have delivered something fresh about forgiveness.
My enemies out there, I forgive you for the wrongs you have done to me, MATHEW 6:14
I forgive you all but I don't have to hug you, dine or chill with you, or trust you to watch my back because I don't know whether the evil spirit still lives in you, or still employed by Satan. My enemies, I pray for you to be delivered, I cover you with the blood of Jesus. Amen 🙏
Steph is heaven sent .God is on time I was battling with wether to fight my sister or forgive her.
Thank you Pastor Stephanie for this great teaching. Father every time your daughter pours out bless her double IJNA 🙏🏽
Recognizing the need for separation - from a place of discernment. Apt!!!
For me, this is Timely wisdom in relating with people and healing from past hurts.
People are not my enemy, the spirit at work in them is my enemy and the wisdom to discern spirits will help me war differently.
Only keep friends who are yielded to the Holy Spirit bearing in mind that there is no vaccum in the spirit, it's either they are yielded to the Holy Spirit or they are a readily available vessel for the Devil.
Honor is the ability to see people through the Lens of God and not through the things they have done in their past.
Thank you so much Pastor Stephanie ike Okafor 🎉🎉🎉
Sending Love from Nigeria 🇳🇬🇳🇬🇳🇬🇳🇬
Pastor Stephanie, inspire me alot and increases my desire for the things of God. May your auction and Annointing be increased in Jesus' name
Wao Powerful 👏🏾👏🏾♥️ Watching from Kenya Nairobi 🇰🇪
Extremely timely. This is exactly what happens in marriages
Please Ma'am I have been listening to you every day before I go to bed and after I woke up from bed God bless you for drawing me close to God
Watching all the way from Costa Rica, God is good to Him be all the Glory 🙏🏿🙏🏿
I love the way she is so calm when she preaches 'touching messages😘
God bless you great woman of God. I have been listening to you almost every week, there is such a grace upon you. God has been using you to bless me in the season that I am in and may God receive all the glory. More and more grace upon you in Jesus mighty name.
Am ready to let it go.
Am ready to guard my heart. I don't want to put boundary between me and my God.
Thanks for this sermon
I am hearing this again, I will continue to listen to this and other messages from you. Apostle Femi Lazarus is also dealing with this issue. I am inclined to these vessels of God. Their teachings has really helped me. Despite my age I listened to these two like a child ready to learn. Father please keep them, preserve them in Jesus mighty name Aaaaaaaameeeeeen 🙏🏼
Wow.. this is a timely message, my household and I are surely blessed. Just when I was reading shepherding a child's heart to guide me in parenting my daughter, moulding her heart and bringing her up in the ways of the Lord, then I come across this powerful teaching.
Definitely felt chills listening to this message. Needed to hear this thank you !
Thank you Pastor for the powerful sermon may God increase you in Jesus Name
For we are not contending against flesh and blood, but against the principalities.... hmmmm. God keep creating clean hearts in us, Ps. 51:10😊And that timing is insanneee! Glory to God
This was right on time. I had been praying to understand and be free from feeling broken.... I need to fix my heart! "They don't know what they're doing"!! God bless you!! I didn't know Stephanie had her own channel. I am so late! Thank you God!! Amen Amen Amen
A lot of wisdom only the Holyspirit can give within just 40 minutes plus. Thank you so much Pastor Stephanie
7:14 I have heard this before in my deliberations with God and have been used for it multiple times. It is real guys. Forgiveness is such an dynamic working of the Spirit that I don't think the Church is ready for.
Just what I needed ♥️🔥Thank you Jesus Christ ✝️🙇♀️🔥
Watching this sermon with tears in my eyes because that is an answer to my prayers this week ... i asked the Lord to teach me about forgiveness and this morning , this sermon just appears on my fyp... Thank you Lord❤
Well now. Who's the grateful fella today, for Gods good grace in that my wife sent me this one to listen to on my prayer walk.
Have been listening to her videos here the last few days :)
🥰🥰My mentor & inspiration I love you so much Steph, God bless you
Holy Spirit really moves in this message. I feel breaking down lots of unforgiveness toward my parents understanding deeper how my lack of pure heart stands against me in life and also against lots of blessings in life. Not accept Gods standards of love. Im really humbled...I been very angry, defended and selfrightous...I lack lot of Spiritual discernment about Satans strategys. Need pray more , not allow myself be the judge - prideful- but guard my heart and cleanse my heart to see God.❤❤❤
Oh my Jesus! I am Free from the bondage of unforgiveness. Jesus has restored back my peace tonight. May God forever kept you in his arms not to fall but to sail through from any attacks set by your enemies servant of God. Thanks for this incredible sermon, i am blessed to meet you here in your platform 🙏
I honour the extreme and exceptional teaching grace upon you mama🙌🙏
This sermon is powerful, it made me realize some certain things about my life.
Whew, when I tell you that I needed to hear this 🥹. There were a number of things I had questions about, and this sermon clarified them.
God is so good. May God bless you Ps Stephanie, you are such an obedient vessel woman of God!
In the early hours of today 12/6/24 the Lord led me to read Matt 17 which also addresses the matter of forgiveness and now I stumbled into this message, what else can I say than to say thank you Lord 🙏🏼. Because this must be a serious matter you want me to deal with.
Father please help me on this matter, I need your help, I have been hurting, dear Lord wash every bitterness and pains with your precious blood from my heart and help me heal, please flood my heart with your love again and again in Jesus mighty name Aaaaaaaameeeeeen!
Thank you Lord for using this your beautiful vessel. I will keep listening to this message until I see changes.
Am from 🇰🇪🇰🇪🇰🇪 and am getting blessed more Grace my pastor stephani ike❤🙏
Today I had to testify. God has put convictions on my heart to start a new spiritual journey growth for the next months. I asked what it is that he wants to do during the journey and why it’s so important and he answered to Guard your heart and boundaries and I asked him to show me signs and confirmation and here it is. Loud and clear and all the other preachings I’ve been listening to has been exactly this . Thank You Pastor and thank you Lord
