Pressure Points | Pastor Steven Furtick

Pressure has a way of getting to us - at work, at home, and everywhere in between. So what should you do when you feel like you’re being crushed? Asking God to relieve the pressure may not be the answer; instead, discover the power available even when you’re being pressed from all sides.

God bless this pastor, your sermons have helped me in some of the darkest times in my life

[@brookewilson9799]

[@hannahkeys4516]

"When pressure comes, some of us begin to preform to a standard that WE have projected that isn't even true to our purpose."

[@enemyhelicopter1662]

Pastor Steven, that sermon was exactly what God did to me. He let everything go out of my life just to bring me to my knees in the realization that it is all about Him. Having all the things but no Jesus is no life or peace. But having next to nothing depending on Jesus for all things is peace and life! Thank you Jesus, continue to draw near to me and prepare my path for your glory, in Jesus Christ Name!!!!!

Needing prayer... For my marriage. I believe I'll see us get through this. I just wish for it to be in God's favor. In Jesus' name.

[@stephenburleson8141]

find me please

[@smilergal89]

Cesar Gav -Thy Faithful Son amen

[@victoriabaxter6565]

I believe that HE'LL see you get through this. He is the Great I am. "I am" can be a fill the blank exercise. Fill it in with whatever you need at that time. God says I am a waymaker. I am a chain breaker. I am a healer. I am a mender. I am a provider. Call out to Him. Cast your cares on Him. Cry to Him. He hears you. He cares and He loves you both. He owns the copyright to marriage and He wants to see it continue. I would take this union that He has blessed the 2 of you with and give it back to Him. "God, it's in your hands now. Fix it , Jesus." There is nothing He can't do. I'd definitely recommend watch Pastor Steve's message, "How to Save Your Husband" from the Meant to Be series. AMAZING!!!

[@ShesSoPringles]

Victoria Baxter amen

"could it be that your pressure is trying to point you to a higher power" wow!

[@daisyradzick7484]

I am not perfect, but am so thankful that I turn to God in times of major pressure. I have learned the lesson that I can not do it without him. He truly is my strength to get through❤ praise you, Lord!!

4 years on this message became mine…. Thank you Lord 🙏🏽 and God bless you Pr Furtick

[@christinacallaway1407]

Bless you Steven Furtick.....I listen to.your sermons every night, here in the ICU with my daughter battling cancer. Your messages carry us both through these dark days, and when the devil tries to step in I am reminded that God has given me authority over serpents. Thank you!!

[@eyasutesfaye9208]

Wow, thank you pastor. I am one of the three people delivered today. My mamma died exactly on the day this message was posted. I went for her funeral, I have lived since then blaming myself for not helping her, for assuming that I have failed her. Putting myself under a pressure that doesn’t exist. The devil kept reminding me I am a failure. This message is a deliverance to me. I have this resentment about lots of people that they didn’t care, even though she looked after them. What we see will pass the unseen promise will come and it is eternal. Bless you Pastor.

[@daradiaz5652]

Amazing preaching pastor... I am a woman student pilot and oh dear I''m going through a lot of pressure but I feel empowered and have the conviction that the power of God ... Of only my God will train me to get to my promise.

[@IanNavasca]

This message is still relevant today. The Lord knew I needed to hear this. Thank you Jesus for using Elevation Church

We're glad it blessed you, Ian! ^EC Team

[@shellymiller6304]

I was fighting fear, sickness, my husband, all the pressures of life from poverty to persecution & being mocked for my Christian faith. This sermon is so reassuring that I'm never alone in the battle because Jesus my Lord and Savior already won the battle & regardless of the intensity of the pressures here on Earth I face, I know that God has a place in Heaven prepared for me & He will keep His promises to me & all who are saved & baptized in His name. I'm pointing back !

[@juditmorton7496]

This message speaks to me clearly and so beautifully. I'm so grateful. Lord take my pride and make me for who You meant me to become. Amen

[@nighthawk4564]

I just enjoy listening to pastor Steven. I'm literally running out of new messages

[@Asher.da.basher1]

I love his humility. It makes his sermons so relatable. What a legend for us and for God ☺️➕🙏🙌

[@tysamurai6036]

This helped me... I have turned my calling into a performance because I feel like I am inadequate. The power that allows me to perform my calling is not from me y’all... it’s from God. I am just clay... I am just an instrument, not the music.

[@kaylinknight4764]

Five years later and I'm so blessed by this. Thank you Elevation Church and Pastor Furtick!

[@loisarokoyo8261]

God bless you for this message !!!

[@ngnununefe-efe8555]

This sermons gives me anxiety. Too much revelations to process in one sitting. I have had to listen to it multiple times. So I can take it all in and truly process it into my life. Thank you Pastor!

[@lizlovee4377]

[@theequalizer4justice879]

I Honestly would not be able to live without the messages of Hope and Everlasting Glory and Forgiveness that His Wisdom and words of God's messages that he brings to the world daily. They have made such a difference in my life and make it bearable to keep praying for faith and understanding in the purpose of the chaos and Pressures of this world. We all need more Love and Peace, Thank U so much♡

Kira Howard you are a conqueror through Christ, He's alive in you, breathe in His grace!

[@enemyhelicopter1662]

Focus on Jesus let Him use you and your struggle draw others to Him. I deal with it also but it gets less a part of my life as I see the goodness of our God. You are loved and seated with Christ Jesus in heavenly places. If you focus on sin you have a tendency to sin more but if you focus on God and what Jesus is and did for you relying on Him and His love we sin less! It is not religion but relationship!!!!!

[@paulasgmailmccartney4109]

The Lord speaks through you to me - just as I need to hear...Thank you Jesus!

[@angelawoods4443]

When my Dad was alive we would go get coffee and I could release the pressure and frustration and talk it out. Now my Dad is not here. And please know that I love my Dad always will, but now that he has gone home, God has taken over a hand full of vessels that speak to me. On those days I need it most, I can't explain it. I can't tell you how God knows who to use and when and what they need to say to me to get me to hear what I need to hear to grow. But God is in me through me and all around me and I am grateful for the heart of every believer he has put in my path to speak to me through and I can only hope that God would grow me to be the earthen vessel to encourage others as God has me. God bless you, God bless the Kingdom, His Kingdom come his will be done! Thank you for letting me share this. I hope God uses it for someone. God the Father, I thank you. God the HOLY SPIRIT I thank you, Jesus my friend and brother I thank you.

[@sobegirl411]

I love all of these sermons they speak to my heart or the hearts of my loved ones. So grateful for the blessings of the word of God presented in such a wonderful way.

[@evasibrava6895]

Pastor Furtick, this message was a much needed message for me that I had listen to about a month in a half ago. I have been in recovery for many years and God has done an amazing work in every stage since 2012. I grew up in a home where I never heard the words I love you and was abandoned by my mother physically and everyone else mentally and emotionally. I have been sick inside for many years and have had so much heartache, pain and loss. I pretty much was raised in a home that was like a war zone to a child. I was very broken to say the least and no matter how hard I tried to live a good life and be a good person things would just fall apart. Causing me more devastation and confusion. During my process of recovery I felt Gods hand at every stage as he was untangling the mess and step by step healing and restoring me but I things seem to be repeating themselves from time to time and I would get stuck back into the grief to a point I couldn't think or get passed the overwhelming pressure to even say a prayer. A little over a year ago I discovered I didn't have a codependent problem I had a Complex PTSD problem! It's almost the same as a person who has been in the military, except it is harder to target where it is coming from, with a war veteran it can be trace to an event, for a child who has experienced trauma in childhood it isn't easy to trace at all. It comes out of nowhere and we can be gripped by it by the slightest thing that takes us back to the trauma we endured. So once I started getting understanding of this from a book that I felt God lead me to after a situation I was dealing with baffled me. It was titled Complex PTSD by Pete Walker. God used the knowledge from that book to target my issue that kept flipping me upside down. So another situation that once again traumatized me sending back to relive what I lived through as a child but magnified even the more. So I did what has helped me get from one stage to another Listen to sermons until something resinated with me. This message came up on my tv so I decided to listen to it. And you used the scripture (11 Corinthians 4:4-9) which I have heard many times before but this time it really spoke to me so before I went to bed I wrote it out and said it over and over as well as you saying when pressure comes point upward as well as you using at the beginning of your sermon you shared about the little game you played with your kids that helped me to connect to what was going with me in the pressure moments. That very night after sleeping a few hours it hit me that this was what I needed to kick this thing out of my life once and for all. Along with many other messages I grabbed simple power phases you used to help me fight what was attacking me. Goodbye to complex PTSD!!! I would like to recommend you to read the book it will help so many people get free because you are reaching the world. Many of us even believers are stuck in survival mode and operating in the F4 responses. We subconsciously function like this. Even though it's not a faith based book it can be a powerful resource to deal with a really big problem. I am so sorry this message is so long and I hope you see it because I whole heartily believe it would lead to amazing breakthroughs in the Body of Christ as well for us to understand this so we will be more equip to ministering to others when we learn to tie it in the Good news of the Gospel of Jesus Christ. Thank you for allowing God to use you, your lovely wife Holly and all other men and women of God that minster to us from your wonderful church!!

[@Kewie1284]

This hit so much harder today. I have rewatch this message a few times here and there as it pops up on youtube. But it hit harder today. My daughter just left the hospital and everything that goes with caring for her and our other kids and all our other responsibilities was a lot of pressure. I know your message meant more than what we deal with, so thank you for the reminder that Gods got it.

[@elevationchurch]

Amen Stephanie, we are praying with you for strengthen and healing over your daughter in Jesus name🙏

[@estevenmr3705]

Working in ministry has sometimes made me be filled with all kinds of pressure at times. This message came at the right time! My frustrations would sometimes be lashed out towards the ones I love the most. I must put all my trust in God. Thank you Pastor Steven for this message.

"When pressure comes, some of us begin to perform to a standard we have projected that isn't even true to our purpose." Wow. That's deep! Thank you Pastor Steve for this message. It really blessed my soul and drew my attention to the power of the Holy Spirit and the presence of God. This month despite the pressure, I'm pointing to glory. The pressure is temporary, and God will see us through them all.

[@adebolaakinbisola1045]

Thank you Jesus, God is interested in every soul. This evening I was all pressured about my life, I felt like I just live day by day and nothing meaningful happens in my life, I cried and spoke to God that He should interven after I asked Him to forgive me my sins and that I can't live by my strength and He should speak to me concerning my life. I said to myself but I believe the Holy spirit brought the thought to my mind and said instead of me being worried, pressured about imparting people's life I need to continue to work on myself to grow and that through the process where I focus on building myself I will soon be making impact on people's life. It's over 4 hours when I prayed but I just couldn't sleep my mind wasn't totally at rest until now 3:55am watching this messge, it is a direct instruction from God. I totally believe that what is in me is greater then what surrounds me. My pressure is pointing to my glory. Hallelujah! Thank you most high God, thank you Jesus! Amen!

[@chrisreynolds7129]
