We Must Do Hard Things | The Leader's Cut w/ Preston Morrison

As followers of Christ, there is one thing for certain -- at some point in our journey, we will be asked to do hard things.
Whether it's a tough decision, a difficult task, a significant sacrifice -- whatever it may be, God's process is never easy.
So why does He ask us to do hard things?
Why does this have to be your path?
And why on Earth would we ever choose that path?!

Believers know Jesus did the hard things for them. Followers do the hard things for Jesus. 🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥

Matthew 11:28-30 “Come to me, all you who are weary and burdened, and I will give you rest. 29 Take my yoke upon you and learn from me, for I am gentle and humble in heart, and you will find rest for your souls. 30 For my yoke is easy and my burden is light.”

[@heatherpratt1551]

Ever since getting sober three years ago I HAVE DONE NOTHING BUT HARD THINGS. God, who I rely on for my own survival literally has me regularly doing hard things if I want to stay sober I must. He gives me the power though to do it. Every time.

[@abby999]

sobriety is noooooot at all easy to jump into. proud of you just for trying 🫶

[@samawad1779]

Megan A Brooks From Know For Sure Podcast Sent Me Here & Iam Sooo Grateful 💯🙏🏽🙏🏽🙏🏽

[@rozzya4881]

Man. This was deep

[@jaycaralamar4072]

This message came right on time….I’ve been wrestling with doing the hard things assigned to me and started to get deeply discouraged. Thank you for the encouragement, transparency and most importantly your obedience! Be blessed! ❤🙏🏽

[@crymsonrose1]

Pastor P! God is truly speaking through, you have no idea how many of us needed these chains broken, the stagnant fear of not being able, but with God we are always able. Such a good word. Thank you for doing the hard things!

[@davidfauber8238]

Oof, “what is the thing I’m pretending You’re not asking me to do” thankful to hear those words.

[@dwayneking319]

Brilliant ❤

[@renitalinear9852]

I appreciate this! This was a great message with so much truth! Thank you!!!!

[@jennifervelarde1851]

Thank you for THIS episode and for sharing the authentic voice of God, sweet yet stern and developmental. I remember when God asked me to adopt my son and when his birth mother changed her mind… I literally was like…”God are you freakin serious? I gave you my very hard yes and THIS is what you do to me..??!!!” Long story short… he is my son after 8 brutal day’s of fighting on my knees against CPS, Drug Cartel, biological family, MY FAMILY, my husband left me during that process & impregnated another woman during this period.. I really thought God set me up for failure when in reality God was letting Hell know.. I was 💯 bought in to KINGDOM work (kickin and screaming.. but obedient nonetheless) You are one of my favorite voice’s of Gods sweet reminder’s of His love, mercy, grace and character 💜 Gracias Preston

[@AletaSpeakz]

Ugh!!! Preston I don’t wanna do hard things!!! I avoided this all day lol Thank you for walking with THEE God of the universe. Rant over lol

[@paulwinter8270]

Absolute pure gold. The truth that modern doctrine doesn't want to accept. 100% biblical, yet not acceptable to current trends. God bless you Preston.

[@skyegullatt5505]

Whew chiiiille! Thank you, Preston. The way you love & fear the Lord in your walk and then invite us into it, is humbling. It is insightful. I glean wisdom from it. His naming us (His chosen children, Jew and Gentile) Israel is not lost on me. Thank you for praying over us and making space. I love you back. Praying for you, your family and peers too, brother.

[@cristinaacortess]

this was the gut punch i needed. i really appreciate how applicable this is, thank you!

[@drethebeliever]

Prasie GOD, Thank you, Preston. love you, man GOD love us all so much God loves us all truly even if it's hard even if whatever you asked of us it's hard we do it because we love him I believe that's what my motive is behind it for me for whatever HE'S asking me to do because I love HIM and I know that If get even worse or harder whatever it is nothing compared to what JESUS did for me on the cross

[@sayedero]

Had it open for a whole week before I watched today, had to prepare myself for the cut! 😂

[@AnindyaElly]

I thank God that He uses you to bless me with this episode. 🙏🙏

[@bexfaatausala5857]

This message is so beautiful it makes my heart fall in love with Jesus even more❤

[@reclaimingyourvoice]

I am newly experiencing a hard thing of caring for my grandchildren. Every part of me knows I can't do this without Him, but I also know this is bringing me closer to Him. Thank you Pastor Preston for this reminder. When more days come that are challenging regarding the children this will comfort me.

[@CrystalRondone]

My heart needed this message as a reminder that my path is being obedient and relying on His strength when it gets hard. Played on repeat this whole week.

[@brittanyscheitlin4776]

😭😭😭🙏🙏🙏

[@sojo973]

This is blessing me so much! Love from New Zealand thank you ❤❤❤❤

[@kevinwester2918]

I appreciate your transparency. The thought of God asking, "would you do this for me"...with those eyes ❤😭

[@tyronepetrie]

Let's goooooi!!!

[@refreshingthesoul]

Wow! The clear difference between being a believer and a disciple. "Believers know Jesus did the hard things for them. Followers do the hard things for Jesus."

[@joshcampbell722]

This message could not have come at a better time. I have been wrestling a lot with what I believe God has called me to do. My heart has been for the promise and not the path and I have asked why the path is so excruciating. Jesus did it first.

[@shananigans79]

I am in the MIDDLE of all of this right now in multiple areas of my life. I really needed this right now! Thank you 👏🏽👏🏽👏🏽

[@jamesbrooks5632]

Thank you, thank you, thank you! The Spirit of our God just used you to explain what I have been experiencing these last couple of weeks. It has been hard yet exciting! Difficult yet drawing! Heavy yet strengthening! Glorious yet humbling! You summarized everything that I have been experiencing. To add to what you were saying and what the Spirit has been speaking to me is the word CAPACITY! The hardness or difficulty of my path increases the capacity of fruitfulness. It is not about the fruit but the development of the seeds!

[@docd2026]

Yessir lord this spoke to my soul. And even more scary is when you feel like you can't tell anyone around you...But we have to walk...

[@tenspeedtears]

Honestly I am not sure what is more difficult…wrestling with God or just going ahead and stepping into the thing He has been calling me to do for several years…at some point I will know for sure but not yet. Thank you Preston. I’ll be praying for you and your family.

[@melissa_arris]

Man, I feel like most of the time if it’s God I know because in my body I don’t want to do it 😂😂 but like you said, once you resolve in your heart that you have to drink the cup (or for me carry the cross) you give up the right to complain about it. For another child of God to taste the King in shekhinah what’s a bit of mortal discomfort for me, but temporary ✝️🕊️✨

[@Mrhenry_fit]

Man, never stop doing these!

[@amazingrace2196]

This was such a powerful session. I could feel the presence of God through your words

[@RW-jh6ni]

Most powerful message I have heard in a long time. Jesus renew my love for You.

[@pdavidgrieve]

So good! Thank you. I’m in the midst of obeying the hard thing he’s asked me to do about a year ago.

[@Sparklecheryl146]

Thank you 🙏

[@kirstenscholtz1106]

I often say to people 'you can do hard things' recently God will often say that back to me. This session had me in tears... Thank you for these videos, your openness is so amazing

[@TebriaC]

Wow thanks for your vulnerability! As I walk through a hard decision this was needed for my soul

[@thePULSE87]

Bro this is SO timely. Literally My life right now, I even did a Video about the area of Obedience..especially when it’s hardest, it’s so important. Bless you brother

[@monicadennis8206]

I've had a few things in my life that I considered to be a sacrifice. They were hard to do or live through, but somehow when I think about it in this light, I wonder if it's the same thing. You've got me running back to my journals to remember! Some things are hard because they are a consequence of something else. Some are hard just because the situation is a difficult one to navigate, but I didn't necessarily feel like I had a choice in the matter. I just had to hold on to or find my peace and walk on. But then when you said, "The hard way is the fun way." Ha! I don't know if I can give you that one, Preston. I'm more inclined to say the hard way is the right way, and that is the reason why I keep moving forward. I think to myself this is how the Holy Spirit would want me to do it, right? So do that. Even though it may not be fun, easy or maybe even though I may not even be sure I'm 100% correct in the moment I'm doing the hopefully right thing. Even if I love the results, can I call it fun on the other end of things? That might be a stretch for me. But if I think the Lord will be happy about it, then that is what gets me through.

[@_tndn]

MOARRR!

[@jwill3331]

This is so good.

[@armiberry7982]

Preston, I've been listening to you since Feb of this year. My family and I will be in your area and wanted to come hear you in person. Will you be preaching on Sunday, 8/6?

[@Iamforulive]

NOT EOR WOE IS ME 😂😂😂

[@sharonmbabazi7481]

What was the hard thing God asked you to do??!! Someone help me.....I'm so confused.
