I'd like to affirm what Steven has said at the beginning of this video. If some people in your life are exhibiting behaviours that makes you angry and annoyed, hey, calm down. Anger doesn't solve the problem. But love and compassion will. Learn to see these people with the compassion and graceful eyes of Jesus. You don't know what they're struggling with.

[@jimmygonzales3981]

Love and a soft tongue is of the spirit, aggressive and compulsive behavior are of the carnal man and resolves nothing.Rom.8:16 The spirit man is the way. Try it you may be pleasantly surprised of the peace and God's love and mercy that can alter lives in joyous ways not only Glorifies God but your immediate family or company will appreciate the changes

AMEN I just got a revelation listening to this and reading the comments, I had such a worldly confidence the past couple of years until recently last year I was stripped of that confidence, I went through a lot I recently learn I deal with trauma and deal with PTSD, ect. I feel like I've had to rebuild myself, though instead of building myself up through myself I can now build myself up with God and start new through him.. Thank you for this, this is so beautiful.

PRAISE GOD! Since I first listen Steven over 2 years when I had completely given up. I was saved by God's grace .. I was so lost it was hard to even breathe. This was when I just turned on the TV and Steven message it had to happen was on. I watched as I was laying in a puddle of tears on the floor. Thought I wanted to die but it was that I just didn't know what to do at all any more .. I heard that messaged and over the next week every time I started to break down and cry I would turn it back on some times several times a day. Steven sermons made it were finialy I could understand God's word and apply it to my life do easily. Like this sermon that just turn to you tube and it was the first thst played. Again. It was exactly what I needed to hear. Thank you Steven at last I can hear God and understand through you. For 2 years I have wanted nothing more than to come out to your church and be apart of that church. I HOPE TO SEE YOU SOON. PRAISE GOD. 🙏

God is so good all the time. Thank you for teaching me patience. The one thing that is very hard for me to sustain. God will always teach me to stay steady in faith, continue to pray and praise him everyday. Not just the good days. I love you God and I praise your name. Thank you for sending us Jesus. I love you 🙏✨

[@randallaila6776]

It's good to know and admit that God is teaching you about patience and that you're learning. Never pray and ask God for patience cause he will throw curve balls left and right

[@starlsdd6278]

Thank you for being so truthful and using the Bible in a way that pertains to today's situation. I just tuned in a minute to another Ministry that I used to listen to. I won't mention names but he candy coats everything like everyone should just pray and not do anything about any situation. We need more than prayer. We need to take action to help others. Thank you Pastor Steven for being real. This one Ministry says everything's going to turn around for the good almost every time he opens his mouth. He never talks about life situations and how to help one another or ourselves.

[@STRENGTHFROMABOVE]

Sometimes life might hurt, but you can still win if you don't back up. If you have a giant in your life, refuse to back up. It is time to run toward that problem and solve it in the power of the Holy Spirit. The world may say that you can't win your battle, but when you stand for God, He will fight for you.

I agree He is trying to break confidence in myself, so I have more or ALL confidence I should say. I am Paul. I've BEEN GLAD THAT I GOT KNOCKED OFF MY HORSE. The strategies He uses to make or break me,,(and with the guidance of sermons like this one that can translate pain and suffering) humble me, which I dearly appreciate. I've built up such a wall, since age 2. Being so protective and independent, I believe caused a great ego that takes the Almighty and Everlasting God to break. Again.
