Please pray for me. I’m seeking God. I love Jesus. But life gets heavy, and sometimes it feels like I’m losing, or going backwards. Help me see what to do next God!

It's truly liberating to witness a Pastor who is so open about his mental health. God is so good! And Shawn is doing so well.

[@thissweetlife7250]

I needed to see this today..I wasn't even going to watch this..I started watching it, stopped it, started to scroll and God brought me back to it...and he's going to bring me through this season.

[@redrockschurchYT]

Amen Emily! So glad you were a part of service with us!

[@thissweetlife7250]

The 4th video I've watched. God speaks we just have to listen. No matter who is speaking, I've been asking God to give me discernment about what I hear, to show me the truth. What words are from Him.

[@victoriagillespie6595]

I'm watching this 10 months later and I needed this so much today and always thank you so much ❤

[@aaronmcomber4578]

I am kinda afraid to post this but I have been going through a very hard bout with anxiety for last 9 months and I feel lost and scared and confused quite often but God brings me through each day even though it's soo uncomfortable and scary at times god is getting me through each second min and hour and day and I am so thankful for this pastor and his book. Please pray for me and my family

[@Resolve1984]

This man is real and raw. I got tears in my eyes right now I'm thankful for him and his sermon. I almost passed it up but I'm glad I didn't.

[@Jkarlaaa]

IF GOD GOT ME THROUGH THAT, HE CAN GET ME THROUGH THIS. I was desperately looking for a video because I’m going through something hard right now and I heard for a couple minutes and wanted to click off thinking it wouldn’t help… and I turned away and cried, He started saying who this video is for and i turned around n watched balling my eyes out… This service was incredible. Thank you so much! THANK YOU GOD FOR GETTING ME THROUGH IT.

My boss is making me feel overwhelmed I was about to seek guidance in a tarot video but I want to give up witch craft type things and follow God. This video is doing so much for my soul. Thank you and thank God 🙏

[@estherayewoh1077]

I'm not crying. Thank you Jesus for this message. It's a reminder of the love you have for me.

[@letlotlokumalo9288]

I'm trusting God to do it for me again and again, for He has done it before. God has been good all my life. As much as how I'm feeling or going through right now, I know He's working on it and at His perfect timing He'll rescue me from this situation for good for He is our light. God said He will show us favour wherever we go and will never leave nor forsake us. He'll surely defend His Mighty Glorious name. He got me through that and He will surely get me through this. Thank you pastor 🙏🙌👏❤️✨

[@mtan4789]

Pastor Shawn .. you preached this a year ago but God had me in mind for the things in 2023 that am going through right now. Broken hearted, confused, I’m so overwhelmed at life right now … Thank you Ps Shawn, from Australia, you are such a blessing. Let the pain am feeling right now be a platform for God.

[@moviepotter]

Trust in the Lord lean not on your own understanding, acknowledge him in all your ways and he shall direct your path.

By far, one of Shawn's best sermons. I feel deeper in my faith in God for having heard it.

[@minnimuniz1966]

I struggle with so much fear and anxiety it’s affecting my physical health. When pastor Shawn spoke on “He got you through that, He’ll get you through this.” He shared his story and made a list of all the Lord has helped him through so I did it too. Everyday I’ve been going back to my list and pray and cry but in the midst of my pain it helps ground me from my anxiety. Thank you for this sermon. I came across this verse which reminds of my list and all that God has done for me: Joshua 23:14 …’Deep in your hearts you know that every promise of the Lord your God has come true. Not a single one has failed’ He will get me through this!

[@redrockschurchYT]

[@melissawilhelmi4192]

Pastor, awesome teaching. Now I will remember that next time panic sets in. You be strong. I will keep you in prayer. May the Lord's peace cover you.

[@beforetherainbow355]

This was timely for me. We woke up this past Wednesday, on pay day, to our bank accounts frozen due to a loan we were behind on (we endured 15 weeks of layoffs last year of our only income since I am a stay at home mom, the stillbirth of our daughter, and some health issues), taking every single penny we had which was exactly what I needed this month to pay our mortgage which we were already behind on. I can’t afford my mortgage now this month. I am completely overwhelmed and running all over the place working odds and ends jobs to earn any money I can to make up for the loss. I have to stop and remember all the times God has seen us through before. Somehow our mortgage will be paid before august 30. I just have to have faith.

[@kayeeaddy4326]

❤ I have anxiety too and it's left untreated and I wake up every night With pulses at a 160 beats a minute And I just wanted to tell you That I admire your messages and I think you're a wonderful man you're very special even though you have marriage problems and I love your ministry and I wrote down your Bible verses in my Bible and I'm going to read them when I get them listening to your messages and I want to hug you so bad and I'm sorry about your brain problem And I just wanted to say God bless you and I'll pray for your miracle And jesus name amen

[@arnaudsynajie281]

Thank you Pastor Shawn Johnson for your encouraging words of wisdom 🙏 😉

[@AnitaMendenhall]

I've been writing my memorial of God's miracles to keep alive literally and spiritually 1 God kept my sister and myself alive through a narcissistic sociopathic self proclaimed Christian mother,,,,praise God above all others 2 God kept my alive through my life time death wish ,,from9 to 65,,,he's always had my back when no others would let him be praised 3God saved my life literally from my daughter and grandkids he is a miracle worker that was when I was transformed from pagan to a true believer in Christ he is my strength and my salvation let him be praised 4God beat Satan at his own game when the tried to get me to lay down curse God and take my own life because I was an addict and would always be an addict ( clean or not) God allow me to see I've been washed with his love , I am his child who he really loves ,,, I am his he is mine I will always praise

[@kristenh.565]

this sermon came up on my youtube home page randomly today. i've listened to tons of RRC sermons but not this one. today i am going to the hospital for something God brought me through just over 3 years ago with unbelievable results. thank you Lord Jesus for the gentle reminder that you are always watching over us

[@barlowjmb]

God brought me to this, my wife was just talking about reading about the Jordan crossing and I’ve been struggling so badly with knowing what to do and where to go. This helps, God’s helped me before and he’ll help me again.

Step 1: Build a memorial of everything God has already done Step 2: Come back to that memorial often Step 3: When fears come to overwhelm you, overwhelm the fears with truth. Remember what Jesus did many years ago and what God has done for you in your life ☺️😌❤

So blessed!! This is God's conviction for me personally who's being so overwhelmed with my thesis this semester. Thank you Jesus for everthing that You've have done in me, You are the One who got me through everything especially with my college for the past 3.5 years, so i believe You will never leave me alone and will get me through this, not just average but incredibly amazing as You always have. I have faith that this journey will be a memorial and a testimony for my future self and Your people🙏🏻

[@TheLordsPearl]

Hi! It may seem like more work on your part, however, keeping a journal of ideas you have and then constantly updating your outline/skeleton can help you to write the thesis a bit quicker. Keep that journal with you and write down your ideas when they come.

Pastor Shawn, you always inspire me when I listen to you! You are so real & you don’t pretend everything’s going well in your life at all times. Thank you for all the sermons you provide for all of us. I know this is probably asking too much but could you do a sermon at some point about being physically sick & not able to do the things I used to do like playing with my 3 granddaughters ( physical games, etc) as I have 10 Compression Fractures in my Spine & a Rare Genetic Liver Disease (stage 2), how to deal with it & include God in my struggles. You have a beautiful family! Thank you for being YOU! ♥️🌷♥️
