God will Cut off Everything, just so you can listen to him! We have to have our own experiences with God. I love T.D. Jakes and I'm glad that God used him to help me. My Mother said to me years ago before she died: Child, you will go through Many facets & Sufferings with God, but Stay with God. I'm your Mother, but I'm not your God. Everything in God's Word is True; Just Trust him child. My Mother died at 91 in November 2023. Best Teaching Ever!!! My Sister told me that Mother said: God, please take care of my Children. God is Amazing and yes, TD Jakes is for Real!!! He's not my God, but I sincerely appreciate him.

I pray your studies with Christ will began to teach you about the Holy Spirit, TD Jake’s is a good speaker, not a preacher, y’all don’t read your bibles so you believe in false teachings and false preaching -God bless you, I pray you have revelation one day soon , this is not judgement, it is a message just for you to ponder, the Holy Ghost will do the rest…

It felt as though Bishop Jakes was speaking directly to me. “Don’t own that pain, don’t own that depression, don’t own that crushing”. I believe you Lord, though you slay me.

[@maryanne8452]

I have been in an agonizing wilderness season for several years. Recently, I began to hear TD Jakes preach his series on "Crushing."" So, I bought the book and accompanying devotional. WOW! They have given me a deep understanding of this season and how to look at it from a fresh perspective. What a difference it has made. Thank you Jesus, and thank you TD Jakes for sharing this profound wisdom and giving me strength and hope to endure all the way to my Promised Land! Amen.

[@ChildofGod98765]

Jesus is the light and the only true of this world. I keep Faith in Jesus as I constantly struggle to provide groceries and basic necessities for my children both of my sons are special needs taking care of them can be overwhelming at times but I seek comfort in God. I’m constantly struggling to pay my rent it’s embarrassing. I started home schooling my sons, so my hours to work are very limited. My faith has carried me. Faith is all we need. Thank you Lord I know a blessing is on the way. Amen

Many of my close loved ones have died and I still follow and worship Our Heavenly Father, Jesus Christ the son of God and the Holy Spirit. I lost my dad the same year my grandfather then my second oldest sister died in her 20’s lost my grandmother shortly after. Years pass and my my child, I lost my step dad years later. I Love God. I didn’t realize how much I needed God until my daughter passed. I had nothing left in me and God allowed me to lay my head on him and rest and heal. He opened my eyes. Prayers for you.

[@truth4LIFE777]

Justice...what is it? One thing for sure is that we must have a biblical understanding of its true meaning because the Bible says that God is a Just God (2 Thessalonians 1:6-8). Being a Just person is synonymous with being a righteous person.... and since the Lord is righteous in His divine nature, it would be absolutely impossible for Him to be unjust towards anyone. Question, what would a RIGHTEOUS judge do to a repeat offender? Execute righteous justice on him?...or allow him to go free and unpunished? 📖 Proverbs 11:21 📖 Be SURE of this: The wicked WILL NOT go unpunished but those who are RIGHTEOUS will go free. ......but for those of us who are determined to follow and trust Christ until the very end of our lives, have already been justified by our FAITH in the spoken word of God that gives us an eternal peace within our hearts. 📖 Romans 5:1 📖 Therefore, since WE HAVE been justified through FAITH, we have peace with God through (our) Lord Jesus Christ, Throwing ourselves onto the Grace and Mercies of Jesus Christ is our ONLY HOPE!!! May Love, Peace and Trust in Jesus Christ be your strength to carry on! ❤️🙏🏾❤️🕊🙏🏾❤️🕊🕊🕊🕊🕊🕊

In 1998 at the Potters house. A women made it from the hospital no shoes. I loved how she would walk in the church no money for shoes and she constantly praised Jesus. She almost died and Jesus saved her.
