This Happened - Pastor Joel Tudman

How long have you been dancing in the dark? How long will you view your circumstance as a curse instead of an opportunity? Wherever you’re lacking, Jesus will step in the midst, find you in the dark, and deliver His resolution tailor-made for you. Through His grace, He will restore your confidence, shut out negative voices, and reside with you right where you are. Let Jesus take the lead in your life because when it happens, He’ll show you the light you never saw coming.

Traveled from Massachusetts for the weekend for our 25th Wedding Anniversary. Visited the Potter's House on Sunday. I was a little disappointed for the first two minutes after finding out Bishop Jakes would not be in attendance. However this message completely changed that disappointment, we felt as if he was talking directly to us! What a word, what a service what a time - and everyone is sooooooo friendly!

[@kennethjames7078]

I was in service this day also visiting for my birthday weekend... disappointed to because bishop wasn't there. I can say that he had a good word

One thing about Bishop he does NOT play about that pulpit. You'll definitely get a word whether he's there or not.

[@suni5390]

To the one who's reading this, I hope you are doing alright, I hope that all the pain you are facing right now will turn into a great achievement. Always remember that God is always with us. He will bless, guide, and protect us 💗

[@a.mosleyjr.9107]

The devil had told me to give up. God not coming. You doing all this praying n changing and listening to sermons and worshipping and God still got you waiting. Go back to what you use to go back to your old ways. It’s false hope. No lie I listened. But the spirit of God kept getting in my head and trying to put me back on the right path. Since Sunday I’ve been overlooking this sermon until today. This was truly a blessing to me. Had me in tears numerous times. It was the blood of Jesus that brought me back. Thank you for your blessing. I’m back on the right path now. Thank you Jesus for never giving up on me. Hallelujah!! I know it was the blood I know it was the blood 🩸

I came here looking for Bishop T.D. Jake's, but to my pleasant surprise here was thing young man with a word I needed. I mean it was right on time. I'm so grateful I was obedient and didn't turn away when I realized it wasn't Bishop because that's how you miss the message looking at the messenger. I'm so grateful for this word. Hallelujah! Glory be to GOD! 🙏🏽✊🏽💯👏🏽👏🏽👏🏽👏🏽👏🏽👏🏽👏🏽👏🏽👏🏽👏🏽🙌🏽

[@mvula336]

Amen🙏 we were in the same boat, 10 hours later in South African time I decided to finally listen to the word.All I can say I am in awe God is amazing He uses a man in USA to give me a word that I so desperately needed especially this past week.

[@Shamikafoxbam]

Amen it his son. I felt the same way. I stayed watched and got blessed.

[@crystalHfff]

I've been in this room {my bedroom} for the last 2 years of my life and it has become My War Room because I've had to grow and forgive and let go and change things I didn't want to change. I was angry, I was hurt, I was broken and restored. God found me in this room and had to develop me and instill in me everything He knew I could do. I never had a voice, but in this season, I call "The Incubator season" He told me it would come. He helped me grow and become someone I never thought I could become; I was afraid because all I heard my whole life was that I wasn't good enough or that I wasn't going to make it, but God stepped in this place "My War Room" the incubator He has me in to change me and develop me. When a newborn baby isn't fully grown and is unstable it gets put into an incubator so that it can fully develop but during that time it cannot be touched or be around anyone or hear the voice of others. An incubator offers protection from harm and noise. Sometimes God allows us to be isolated and in a room by ourselves to help us become who we are supposed to be and come out of that place being a new person with a new mindset and new fresh love and forgiveness and wisdom that God has given us in that time to be able to share with others. We aren't alone even when it feels at times like we are. God loves you ❤ He will never leave you 🙏 and He is making a way for you!

[@crystalHfff]

@Voice of truthCan you elaborate what you are asking please.

[@dianacobb736]

I thank you Crystal for your comment! I am so grateful that I was able to hear Mr. Joel Tudman speak. I truly believe that he is from God and full of the Holy Ghost!!! I needed this message. Thank God for that 6th sense!!! Hallelujah all praises for His Grace and Mercy.

This message was sent directly to me from the Holy Spirit. This day He answered me and more importantly SAW ME!!!!

[@shauntip7183]

I was there yesterday. This video is amazing but you had to be there to catch the WHOLE word. It was truly an experience to witness such a sermon as this one! I still have watched this sermon three times! I know for a FACT this message was for me and so many others! This great man of God let the holy spirit use him in such a way that it has changed the trajectory of my life! This video was cut a little short but in the end pastor decreed and declared some things over our lives that I believe and recieve in the name of jesus! Even though my current situation is dark I will continue to wait on the lord for the promises God had set for me before I was birthed! Amen and HALLELUJAH!

[@SwaggaC]

Omg you are so righhhhtttt. I was there too on Sunday. I was teary 🥹 in there the entire time. This guy is powerful the way he paints the picture.

[@MinisterFears]

I so love this sermon.. I needed this so badly. I needed a touch from God… My heart has been so broken over the past three years. Cancer diagnosis, husband died and now I’m recovering from renal failure. I’ve experienced pain on every level of my being. But when you said Jesus Saw Me In My Darkness, I began to cry. I haven’t cried like this in long time. But I needed to release those tears. I’m so grateful for life, for survival and perseverance. Thank you Dr. Tubman, your leadership is needed in this world.

[@seitisoseutlwadi6404]

May the great physician repair every damaged cell in your body by the power in the blood of Jesus. My the Lord restore all that the enemy has stolen from your life in Jesus name and grant you his peace which surpasses all understanding. Surely his goodness and mercy shall follow you all the days of your life 🙏🙏💕

Thank you Pastor Joel. You just preached my entire life and I’m glad I came across this sermon. I have cried from beginning to end and the Spirit of God has just ministered to me why I needed to go through this season of my life, this darkness. Am glad the blind man’s story ends with his sight restored because so shall it be for me- the ending shall be so good & to the glory of Glory. Lord, this sermon was so timely. God bless you Pst.

So many parents are going through. God bless. It’s not a secret the world has changed. We raise them but it’s so much defiance not from them sometimes but I truly believe it’s artificial intelligence racing against them from what they hear and see on cell phones, television etc. Truly anti Christ. Limit screen time. Incorporate good activities play more gospel music, anoint them, pray and hear what God is saying. Keep the fight. In the name of Jesus. Amen

[@ChildofGod98765]

Please pray for me this thanksgiving. I will trust in Jesus even though I’m struggling, I will never lose hope. I pray God will continue to protect me and my children. As a single mother things are difficult on me. My husband passed years ago I’m alone. I’m overwhelmed at times because both of my children are autistic. I’m struggling trying to support them and myself because like so many others. I lost my job as a social worker at Forsyth hospital because I declined the vaccine. I declined because of my pre existing health condition lupus and heart disease. I was denied my medical/religious exemption. I wish I could go back to the hospital but the mandate is still in place for hospitals that participate in Medicare and Medicaid. I’m waitressing and I’m so thankful to be working again, but I’m not making nearly enough to make ends meet. I get harassed and called names for simply asking for prayers, but prayers are all we need. Thankfully God gives me strength to keep going. I have faith God will provide. He HAS THIS FAR. WITH GOD ALL THINGS ARE POSSIBLE! Please pray for me and my children.

[@29superc]

I pray for you woman of God. U're not alone sister. The Lord is with you. I believe this is a new beginning for you and somehow I believe 2023 will be a better for you and your family.
