This song is SO TIMELY for my family and I! My 13 year old sister has cancer, and Sunday I had gotten a call from my parents asking to gather all of my siblings to come and say our goodbyes… We prayed, we asked for a miracle, and here we are 5 days later and my sister has made a MIRACULOUS recovery and doctors are in AWE!

Job had to be patient for a very long time, but he stayed faithful to God.

[@lovebridgerescue]

Unforgettable! Awesome! Praise the Lord

[@eddiewalker7252]

Holy Ghost is in the Boat with me. I must stop fighting God for control in the midst of the Storm, even if I have to walk with a limp. Radical Expectation of Good, His Mercies are New every Morning, his Grace is sufficient. Take Courage, Faith over Fear! Faith, Hope, and Love. Heal the Sick.

[@elevationchurch]

Amen!

I am currently going through ovarian cancer treatment. My surgeons removed 27 tumors. Again, going through. Two chemotherapy treatments down, four more to go. When I was diagnosed the Holy Spirit said "This is for your good and His Glory." This message blessed me. God reminded me of the many times He brought me through storms. There's more to my story. I shall live and not die. Cheryl-Fort Mill SC.

Sometimes I did not believe it because the storm is so bad now, but my storm has its purpose. I refuse to believe that God is not carrying me as I experience my trails. God is Good. Hallelujah, thank God for going through the process. God is just so Good. 🙌🏿🙌🏿🙌🏿🙏🏿Hallelujah!

[@kellydionne7404]

@@taz9234 amennn ! Matthew 14:25. They cried out saying it’s a ghost. Because God don’t always look like God in the midst of the storm. But he’s with you , even if it doesn’t look like it. He’s walking with you side by side in that storm.

[@jackieconnelly7929]

Just want to thank God and the man of God for this message. For the last 3 days I been waking up at 3am with a real heavy spirit. I been going through alot at home and in my church. When I wake up I just keep hearing the spirit say. Just think of all the things I have done for you and I glo back to sleep. Well yesterday morning. I told the Lord in prayer. I said God if you wake me up again early I'm going to get up and ask you to speak. I got up and this man of God was talking about your storm has a purpose. I don't know about Apple watching but I do know my God is watching. Thank you so much to allow God to use you.yes 3am morning worship is Great!°

[@elevit9391]

Dear LORD In Heaven, I woke up blessed, happy and greatful!I refuse to allow my circumstances to own me.I refuse to allow my struggle to jail me,and refuse to allow my haters to strip me of my joy!I will strive to have an amazing day, because GOD opened my eyes for a reason. Amen.

[@shermmickaadepoju2899]

Amen!

[@sakhile789]

Timeless

[@JenG33379]

Suit up, let’s go! Sometimes it’s like the Lord says: I’ve got a another lesson for you, suit up, let’s go! Trust it. Y’all I’m telling you. When it happens to you please just know you’ve been called to walk the plank for a little bit. Remember that Jesus is on that plank with you every single day, the whole way. You will look back and see it was a precious time indeed! Then we must use our experience to help others. One breath at a time. One day at a time. One foot in front of the other. Keep going.

[@krystal6908]

[@MITC239]

Thank you for this powerful message! Miami, like California and New York, is a tough place to preach the love of Jesus which makes it exactly the place where anointed people of God like you need to be. Thank you for your faithfulness and courage. May God provide for and protect you and your family, and may He always keep you through the STORM.

[@IsabelJemmott]

This sermon has been on repeat since Sunday. Every time I listen I hear something different. We can not stop the storm but we must remember that every storm has its purpose. Don’t give up the ship. God is here for us, every step of the way, no matter how turbulent this storm we are in is, he is here.

[@karladuncan6764]

I'm in the middle of the storm and a deep depression. So many problems at the same time. Too much to mention here, but I'm trying to hold on and trust God as I walk alone without family or friends in the worst storm of my life at 66 years old. Abandoned. 🙏

[@sheylablackman3108]

This message was so timely for me. Just as I was ready to give up because I could not understand why something was brought to me then taken away again. When Pastor Rick talked about the storm will give way to new revelations, it became clear as to why things happened the way they did. I heard the Holy Spirit say that our Father does not make mistakes. There is a reason He has been telling you to be patient. There is a reason why you continue to hear the same thing and the promise has not changed. Your storm is almost over but our Father needs you to stay patient, focused on Him, not the situation and don't allow the words of the enemy to cause you to forget the promise that He gave you. His Words do not return void and no weapon formed against you shall prosper. Thank you Father for this powerful message.

[@edmundl611]
