Staying Power | Appointment With An Angel | Pastor Steven Furtick | Elevation Church

[@sarafinasegwagwa6271]

I broke down watching this sermon. It's been a long waiting season so i prayed for a breakthrough today. It was my birthday and i knew only God had what I deeply desired. I came to church today expecting God to split the sea and to tell me that I don't have to cry anymore. This was so painful to listen to. Even through the tears I had the unexplainable faith to say, 'it hurts, I want to jump ship but I trust You so I'll stay because You say so.' A few minutes later, after the tears and the screams, I had this perfect peace. I'll have to stay in this season for a little while longer, I'm terrified but He's with me, He walks with me, He comforts me, He's my strength. I will get through this.

Really, REALLY needed this one. 🥺 My fiance and I ended up getting sick with COVID-19, and it was very hard. I almost died, but I'm still here, and Lord knows we're grateful. :') He couldn't work for almost a month, and he finally goes back tomorrow, but it's been really tough. Our families make sure we have meat and rice, but I'm trying so hard not to fall apart thinking about how we're going to pay rent. Right now we're in those stormy moments, but we're trusting God. My heart needed this message, it was no coincidence! 😭💕 I know everything will be okay, if we got through that virus together, I know we'll get through this storm too. We'll stay praising! 😭😭😭💕🔥🔥🔥🔥

I am blessed everyday with the love of my daughter's 2 little boys. I use to take life for granted. Now, I cherish every moment that God allows me to live. Thank you God, for your mercy and grace.

Notes When I am weak then I am strong I need God I am church Do the biggest storms make the biggest stories? Acts 27 Doesn’t have to be physical to be practical Now! A lot of us have starting power We have such a hard time celebrating the right things in our culture We’re going all the way to Rome You don’t always get to choose your type of transportation We go from glory to glory but we don’t know how exactly we’ll get there I have an appointment but we get disappointed by people just because people disappoint you doesn’t mean you should be disappointed with God (because he knows what’s best) When my heart is breaking it’s important to abide in God’s love so I can experience his presence I can’t control somethings Don’t create a second storm because of your decisions Don’t run to something because you’re lonely I’d rather go through a hard time than stay at the wrong place my whole life Stay in faith, it takes faith to stay If you stay you will be saved To stay optimistic when the world is pessimistic Keep your peace He said you’re gonna make it anyway (even if the ship doesn’t look the same) Hey guys I hope this was hopeful, I apologize for any wording/spelling errors and I hope you have or had a wonderful day and God bless 🧡

[@generaldurandal3568]

At midnight one night, an attack besieged my heart, and I held my chest. So I sang a song, instead of seeking aspirin, then blessings abound. The first blessing came I became like a river, fingers skimming through. Along the surface, the waters separated, washed my body. The second blessing, so He scratched out His hand, into the waters. Grasping my heart close, He set my heart on fire, and the heat spread through. When the song was done, an hour had gone on by, and the pain was gone. A voice called my name, a loving Angel of God, her voice familiar. God was still with me, a hymn of energy rang, it was all around. Praise the Lord my God, and His Son Jesus Christ, the Lord and Savior!

This message reminded me of the song "Burn the Ships" by King and Country. I originally didn't even know that song was about addiction. This sermon reminded me to stay focused on being sober and stay focused on my recovery road. There have been a lot of storms I have been in based on my choices but there have also been even greater routes and ways that God has shielded and protected me through them as well. It has been a year in August since I've had alcohol, 2 weeks from sexual addictions, and 3 weeks since smoking weed. I used to think it was helping me but really what I needed was to have a solid foundation and come back to Christ. Last year, I prayed for the chains of addiction to be broken over my life and felt cool waters rush through me, and still today I am praying that I continue to break through this and make it. So even though I have had some shortcomings, God is still here with me in breaking traumas and forming me into the daughter He created me to be. I am going to come out of this different then I expected or wished for and I"m going to stay where I am currently and continue to persevere.

I really needed this one. my son is diagnosed with a very rare genetic disorder with severe intellectual disability. He is my first child. i didn't know when I was pregnant. my husband left me after my son's diagnosis. for the last few months, I lost my relationship with God due to anger. I felt so defeated and cheated when all my friends gave birth to a healthy child .now I don't know how to live this life without god. This line literally got me "Quit trying to escape the stuff God is using to change you." I had suicidal thoughts for so many months(not anymore). I was surviving just for my child. now I am starting to see hope. Yes, the path is going to be totally different from what I intended and life is not great. I think I should learn to be okay with that. I learnt sadness is never going to go away. I badly needed this video. Really Thanks

"Rather than stay in something they didn't like, they sailed into something that would destroy them." "Doubt gives you something to have faith for; blame will block faith every time." "I'd rather take you through a storm, through a hard time than have you waste your life in the wrong place; we gotta get you there; if I have to send a storm to get you there, if I have to shut it down to get you there, if I have to remove people and comfort to get you there, you're gonna get there, if you listen to the right voice." You say so much powerful stuff pastor, and you sometimes make it look like you're just having a simple conversation! That's how greatly anointed you are. Not that you need to hear it from someone like me.. God bless you more and may He keep you a great blessing to others.

This message spoke to me in a lot of ways and I never knew I needed to hear this until God deliver it through Pastor Steven. With the situation we have now here in Qatar, a lot of expats are having their own storms... some doesn't even have work for 2 months now and has no salaries. I see a lot if people in social media groups asking for food because they don't have money for it and some are even sent back to their countries without even a final payment. Some of my co workers are having second thoughts whether they will stay also or they will go back home because we don't know what will happen next. 43,000+ are infected with the virus and no lockdown has been announced. We often ask if it's still practical to stay. That what's in it for them if they stay. But something in me keeps on being stubborn, saying this too shall pass. And I realized how blessed we are, my colleagues and I, because we have free roofs above our head and we have food on our table. Compare to others we are in better situations. And as I listen to the sermon, I realized with the way our thoughts run, we are creating a second storm by letting worry clouds our decisions. I'm sharing this to my friends and colleagues because I want them to realize a lot of things about their decisions, not just to make them stay where we are now but also so they can strenghten their faith. To not let fear covers their hope. I also pray to the Father that He may bless and help those who are in need right now, those who are in tight situations with their finances. May he shine His light to people who are losing their faith ❤🙏

I was really worried for the past weeks and thinking what will happen to my business after all of this and how am I going to get married with my fiance. After hearing your preaching Pastor Steven, God gave me a message that I just need to stay in His Word and trust on what He can and will do.

Spoke to me, I’m going through a tough time this season. With the passing of my mother from cancer to my marriage in the brinks. Please pray for my marriage. Please pray for my family. This message hit me cause I’m thinking about moving out with my kids. How can I stay?

[@Mae-rr5ye]

The blood of Jesus made an account for everything. The enemy is after marriage because he knows it's God's establishment. He will try you, he will attempt to scar your children. Let your marriage Be the house on the rock that thought the wind and rain beat against that house it doesn't move. I don't know your situation and in everything u must be wise. The Bible says some things r broken only through prayer and fasting. Give up control to God give it some more time and in that time dive deep into prayer and start speaking over your husband and your family use the authority I'm your mouth God made u to have dominion. As a wife you are a helpmate. If your husband doesn't lead pray that God shake him up and change his heart. The Bible says if there's unfaithfulness then there's cause to leave but besides that marriage is a target for the enemy and once you're in it you gotta fight for that convent you made with God. "every knee shall how and every tounge confess that Jesus is Lord", "me and my house will serve the Lord". Except for if sim happens in that way that I spoke of before sometimes we gotta fight for what God gives us and for *what we choose*. Let your marriage stand to give God glory. If it's our marriage it won't last but if it's Gods marriage it will. Let it give Him glory ask him what he wants from it and pray and fast and wait for what God says. "Guard your heart for from it flow the issues of life". ❤️ I wish you all the best know that if it's his and just hard rn He's faithful to complete what He has started. The word of God says "let no man tear apart what God has put together". He will fight for you,give Him control and watch Him work Miracles. He is for you and your family. Be strong, be of good courage. For God always does what He says. ❤️

[@cocochannel3694]

Oo am sorry for the loss of your mother and i pray that God give you comfort and step in to fix your marriage

[@4theGreatIAM]

God will be your strength and will guide you - it is scary sometimes to follow Him. I pray for a hedge of protection around you and that if you need to leave He will make this very clear and grant you peace in the midst of the storm and carry through this trial.

Thank you for giving us hope. One part that caught my attention is how the centurion listened to his prisoner and had enough faith in his words that he actually cut loose the life boats...I think that speaks volumes about what kind of person Paul was in fulfilling Gods plan.
