Truth Matters - Get Over Yourself - Francis Chan

- The secret of true joy is to take our eyes off ourselves and see something else, something more beautiful. David says this in Psalm 27:4, “One thing I have asked from the Lord, that I shall seek: That I may dwell in the house of the Lord all the days of my life, to behold the beauty of the Lord and to meditate in His temple.” We need to stare at Jesus.
The truth of God tears me up inside rips me in pieces makes my conceited self righteous persona crumble. I tear up because im wrong and want to be right...i can't stand the thought of eternity without the Lord.
Once a child of darkness now a child of light and i must act that way because through the sacrifice of my lord I've been made part of the family...me a lost sinner saved by his love and grace that i may receive a tiny piece of heaven even though most of my life has been corrupt.
@@AnthonyGarcia-vl6ui Amen ❤😢
Let us pray for each other. 🙏
Deny yourself, you must decrease in order for Christ to Increase😍😍😍😍
Agree
No this is not at all what the scripture means. What you are meaning by saying we must decrease is God must kill us essentially.. or in other words
Lord, get rid of everything that’s me, because I believe You can only be glorified in me if I don’t really exist. If You can just get rid of me, then You will somehow be able to glorify Yourself in me.”
But what that verse actually means is this..
When John said “He must increase, but I must decrease,” he was talking about the fact that the Law was being fulfilled, and the new day of the Jesus’ Kingdom was dawning.
Read a bit into that scripture and what's said before and after and you'll get the real meaning of what that means. But we should never decrease... That's just silly, I'm sure the devil would love that.
We need to increase as a child of God, knowing our identity in Christ! Romans 8:19 says 'For [even the whole] creation (all nature) waits expectantly andlongs earnestly for God's sons to be made known [waits for the revealing, the disclosing of their sonship].'
So the Earth is actually a waiting for the sons of God to be made known... Now how can that happen if we decrease?
understanding this verse as we must decrease so he can increase so demonic and twisted. And most people only say it because they've hurt others say it. But if you actually read the verse it says something totally different if you read what was before and stop taking it out of context..
@@C..C..C..C wow well said!! eye-opening!
@@C..C..C..C yeah, I mean it was mainly in importance. The argument preceding it was the fact that everybody was now going to Jesus to be baptised instead of John. John's response can be summarised: "hey guys, this isn't about me. This is about Jesus, he must increase in importance while I decrease in importance. I'm not going for the glory here, it's about his glory".
Colby Mckone Have patience in your words
I obeyed what Pastor Francis Chan said after I watched this video and it changes my life every single day, I receive blessings 💜💛💚💙
I love Francis Chan.. he preaches the truth.
Omar C the Wordprophet channel on CZcams for true teaching on the word of God.. Obey Acts 2:38 KJV
I LOVE THIS PASTOR, WE ARE AT THE END AT THE BIBLE, BEST PART IS THAT JESUS IS HEALING THE BLIND, TO OPEN THERE EYES!
Truth? He does conferences with Benny Hinn and other false prophets. I knew him in California. Be careful...
@@richielopez2016 Interesting comment ......and verse.
@@StandUp777 Did you have any issues with what he said in this particular sermon?
This is the single most useful and empowering sermon I've ever heard in my entire life. Words cannot describe the depth of my gratitude for Francis's willingness to be BOLD AS A LION. We need this. The church needs to hear this. I needed to hear this. Thanks for posting.
don't be deceived he is a false prophet
@@southernmostrebel no he is not
@@baconaaaron HE IS " NOT " PRETENDING TO HEAL PEOPLE AND INVO0LVED WITH SCAMMERS ?
1- Get over yourSELF. Crucifying Self.
2- Think of others. Common Good.
3- focus on God. Why are you tired, why are you not satisfied?
4 when did the last time you came to God because you are in love with Him? Not because you need retreat, not because you need a rest or because you are tired or maybe you want nourichment....
Thank you
bruns wik the Wordprophet channel on CZcams for true teaching on the word of God.. Obey Acts 2:38 KJV
Thank you for that, that was what I needed to see right now
Good points! Except with the fourth one, going to God for rest in nourishment IS appropriate that is HOW we grow to love him and overflow. He is our only source of rest and fulfillment
38:20 wow that is so powerful. How many of us still live under the "old covenant" where our pastor is our Moses? Jesus tore the veil apart so we could access the Father personally.
When did Jesus tear the veil and where was it?
"Some of the most miserable people I know are the people who cannot get out of the selfie mode."
The more you turn inward, the darker it gets. Thank you for sharing this truth - very powerful!
Helping another sick and suffering human being is a great way to get out of your own head and out from self.
You can tell he's fasting by the sound of his voice👌 Praise God
This is the what I needed to hear today!
We think that we are so important!
Anybody thinking the same thing?
AGK motivation We are!! We are so important that the God of the universe and all created things decided we were worth the sacrifice of His own life 😮 We are very important to Him. We’re the bride of Christ! If that’s not important I don’t know what is ❤️ If we understand His worthiness, then we see our worth to Him. I don’t think Francis is saying we’re worthless or unimportant! Just that we need to fix our eyes on our Beloved - the fruit of “looking” at Him will be selfless lives filled with worth and value as the Bride of the Most High God. 🙌❤️
@@bethiabritza213 I think AGK motivation is referring to the fact that we humans think we ourselves are important that we dont think of others. Self entitled etc. Putting ourselves first and never thinking of others. But I do get your point and AGK.
DISCLAIMER * I JUST SEE IT HOW IT IS SO PLEASE DONT GET AT ME . Thank you & God bless you all
lorraine ilai oh I see. Sorry I think the worthlessness thing might be a bit of a trigger for me as it’s a lie I believed as a Christian for many years. Thanks for shining light on what the person above was trying to communicate ❤️
@@bethiabritza213 PRAISE LORD JESUS! You are right we are important YES ! We are so important to Jesus. AGK & Bethia both bring important points. Have a blessed day and go well with the Lord Jesus!
lorraine ilai thank you 😍❤️❤️
God is so awesome 👏🏾. Thinking and putting others before yourself is such a strength that the world tries to play as a weakness. So grateful for the biblical truth! Thanks Pastor Chan for letting God use you.
All Glory to God!
Glory to God
Brave, poignant and powerful message from a pastor..i was not meant to be your Moses...if you don't learn to go to mountain by yourself you will suck the life out of everyone..thank you Francis..forgive me Lord for neglecting my first love
When we hear a word God, let's always take it that it is always meant for us, not for someone else.
Amen
God Bless Francis Chan.
Thankyou Lord for bringing me a teacher such as him, for he has helped me become closer to the Father in heaven.
For I prayed to God, Thankyou for being with me every day. For I have loved you God since I was young, and I will love you when I am old.
Then I opened my Bible and read Psalms 71. Verse 17, 18..
" 17.O God, you have taught me from my earliest childhood, and I constantly tell others about the wonderful things you do.
18. Now that I am old and gray, do not abandon me, O God. Let me proclaim your power to this new generation, your mighty miracles to all who come after me."
I'm always getting in God's way. Father God help me to get over myself and look to you for every answer. Help me to remain humble Father God. We were created to bring you glory not bring ourselves glory
A great preaching, it is full of conviction. It's true that this generation is focused only on themselves. They feel happy if they receive positive comments on pictures they posted and they feel mad if they receive negative comments. Thank you Pastor Chan for this great preaching especially for this last days, we really need to focus now to Jesus....He is coming!
Idolizing self - it's not a fun time. It's a trap that will destroy your life. John 8:32-36- "The truth will set you free and if the Son sets you free, you will be free indeed. " I think that New Age thinking putting self as a god wherein you constantly "manifest" destroys lives and relationships. God bless you all. Amazing Vid!
God help me to not be selfish please lord help me to focus on Jesus please lord I want Jesus and I want to get over myself and love others
One of the best sermons i've ever heard...twice...Keeping it real...Selfie mode OFF as well here
Just agreed with you about this sermon. It's a favorite because it is one of the most powerful lessons that one can receive as a Christian. Being selfless, loving others, and loving God with everything. The 2 greatest commandments in one beautiful symphony. Let us live for others as Christ lived and died for us! Amen!
Ricky Langston Amen! 🙏🏼
The 72 people who gave thumbs down feel convicted.
Lord Jesus this is talking to me
It is never ending but Lord help us change
He preaches inspirational truth! Probably one of the most thought provoking messages I’ve heard.
What an enlightening message... keep on preaching solid biblical truth... Soli Deo Gloria....
God help us to look only at you!
I want Him to come back because I am in love. Praise Jesus
Francis Chan is the best. He preaches the truth. Does not hold back on what really needs to be said!!
Amen Amen people of the end days that's one of them lovers of themself...look at today...fulfill the prophecy right there ...Jesus is real He is almost coming back ...Repent while you still have a chance. GOD BLESS
100% true...We have to be accountable to the word of God. Instead of reaching for the phone in the morning we should be reaching for the bible. The words of Life. "Remember Gods thoughts are not our thoughts and His thinking is not our thinking..He brings you the word to help uncover the veil of truth in a disciplined manner..Meditation and careful thought exercise us and strengthen us for the reception of the yet more lofty truths..our Lord puts up truths in lofty places to work at obtaining it and letting it nurture our souls..
The word becomes our medicine our armor You must labor to understand the word and pray to God to help." -CS-
there is a conviction on my heart upon hearings those words..it's an eye opener for me..and glorify God all days of my life..to deny myself and follow him..Godless you and the whole church..I'm blessed..Glory to God❤❤❤❤
Lord thank you for this man. Thank you Francis Chan for being in an intimate relationship with God.
An AWAKENING message, GOD Bless US All!
Just watch this today while working at home @2 AM, my take away is on Exodus 19:9-20,this is true, its not enough that we just go to church every sundays but we need to have a personal solitude with the Lord, we need to go to the mountaintop and not just wait for Moses to tell us what God told him. God is all powerful, we matter to him and he wants us to know him more, love him more and trust in his promises.
Thank you for this message from God through Ptr. Francis. Im so self-centered which hinder me to see the true power and glory of God.
Thank u for this wonderful message
God bless you Ptr Francis!
This was so incredible ... Thank you Lord Jesus. So needed for such a time like this!
Wow! Excellent message. I needed this right now at this exact moment in my life! Starting right this moment, it will not be about me, my ego gotta go!!
I am so blessed . Thank you Jesus
what a very powerful and timely message. So blessed every minute listening to this message. Declaring blessing upon all disciples.
Amen...Thanks God for your life
What a great reminder!
Pastor Francis Chan.. 😍
I miss hearing your preachings..
So powerful and such truth! Thank you Holy Spirit & thank you Francis for the courage to speak the truth!
What a powerful message.!
Thanks for the very powerful word.
Glory be to God.
For there is no guilt or condemnation for those who are in Christ Jesus ...the Meat of the Gospel is Gods Grace...
This Word surely delivers us from ourself 🙌🏾
Wow this is just what I needed! So true! We need to get our minds off ourselves!
God bless you always Pastor Francis Chan. Amazing teaching and lesson.
Praise the Lord ! Wonderful sermon.

such a powerful message by Francis Chan
really funny too
THIS IS SO GOOD!!! Francis is the BEST
All glory to God! 🙌
Thank you, Jesus for Ptr. Francis Chan! ❤
God bless you pastor for this solid food.
What an amazing word
one young preacher who actually gets it.
Such a powerful message. So thankful for Pastor Francis’ obedience to give it as the Spirit led.
Powerful Sermon My Brother, Gut checking the Body of Christ; If we could reverence God in His Glory on this level we would be Overflowing...Thanks for the exhortation; Heavenly Father rid me of myself.....
Thank you for posting this, and thank God for pastor Francis.
So good! Not a tickle my ears message. But truth !
Thank you pastor God speak through you. God bless you even more.
Amen Bro. Praise God for truth.
Boy he took out that whip and went to town. 😭😂😂.
Lol ya he's been like this the last few years. To be honest I think it's because he preaches with the mentality that every sermon could be his last so he really wants to drive his point home.
@@mattnash5159 .... how do you know that?
@@Thankful305 Listen to his sermons, posted under Francis Chan "We Are Church." Then you'll get it.
@@brandyD33 I also believe it comes with trusting God more the longer you do life with God and you are exposed to things that cannot be unseen. We need people like him to be bold, to pave the way for the next generation to live in a wholesome, authentic, Christlike manner. You can also tell he has learned to take care of himself outside of his work. Some pastors get burnt out because they overdo it and don't know their own boundaries. Thank God for Francis Chan!
U are so right he did..
A very piercing and welcome message for today.
I believe there’s an absolute season to look at self in order to identify our weaknesses and also to recieve healing.. especially when we’re broken from abuse etc... but this can’t go on forever it has to lead to a place of where we eventually switch focus and we encourage, teach and lead others to Christ out of our experiences 🙏🏽
WOAH that was so good. Exploring and knowing how God truthfully wants us to live. Let's go love others.
My favorite bebo norman lyric is you become clear when I disappear
AMAZING SERMON I LOVE THIS SO MUCH AND I AM SHARING IT WITH ALL WHO WILL HEAR THE WORD IF GOD!!! THANK YOU LORD FOR USING PASTOR CHAN!!! I LOVE YOU JESUS 💓💓💓
yolanda Shaw I’m standing amazed in the presence of the Lord just listening to this... it’s rare to see a pastor share himself and his heart so intimately... I want what he has.
Mark 12:31. The second is this: 'Love your neighbor as yourself.' There is no commandment greater than these."
This is so good! We all need to regularly check our hearts for this, because the flesh will always try to creep back in and put "ME FIRST" in our heads. I need to anyway. We need to pray to be more servant minded.
Amen Pastor. We need more of this. Imagine if this self observed generation can do this. I know a few selfie addicts so I'm glad this message is being preached
He is teaching here convicting encouragement from the Holy Spirit
Well said, Francis!
Wooooowwww Francis Chan
This is crazy good. Eye opener for me.
Very good word pastor Chan. This needed to be said. Everyone has a spiritual gift, at least 1. The way to practice this is by getting rid/putting off our “selfi”sh pride and helping others. That’s when the Spirit moves. Thank you Jesus.
This is so powerful.
Love, Love, love ittt~ 😍
I love the way Francis talks heaps about really seeing God and how worthy He is as the underlying value of life, and every fruit that springs from that will be wonderful, cos it’s the way we were made to live.
But I’d add this; if we don’t face our past, or the current rotten fruit in our lives, and invite Jesus into those places, we will not become healthy Christians. In order to see God’s worthiness and glory, we often need to see His responses to us! To our crap, to our personality, to our “good”. And we need to ask what He’s doing when He shows us Himself. Each of these moments builds the relationship’s depth. So we really see how worthy He is. And that revelation of His nature - His worthiness - is what produces incredible fruit. Do you know what I mean? I agree with Francis, but I’m adding that sometimes seeing yourself (with Jesus) is actually important and not narcissistic. It produces revelation of His awesomeness, and sky rockets our trust levels. Our eyes become captivated by Him because what else could capture our attention after truly experiencing His glorious nature toward us?!
This is such a great message. Thank you.
Love this guy.!
wow pastor francis
Amen amen amen !!! AMEN !!
Good message before we journey into Lent
Whoa, Joel Osteen should really listen to this.
I honestly think that if he was in the room, even if he was wearing a disguise/conceal his identity, I think he would close his ears and ignore it...
@we thepeople We cannot judge or condemn. Only God can do that however, we are to examine everything and retain what is good. If we notice someone who is not being a blessing to us, we have the right to rejected. Maybe Osteen is a blessing to you, but he is not for other people. Christians have opinions as well. Just because we are called to love each other, it does not mean that we should be complicit towards their rhetoric. The Bible says that because of the lack of knowledge, His people will perish. Some pastors want to preach a watered down version of Jesus. Some of us can see it and some of us don't. Regardless, we have the right to our opinion without having people like you telling us we are judging. Study the Word and don't pick and choose verses to fit your narrative. Thank you!
Exploro the Wordprophet channel on CZcams for true teaching on the word of God.. Obey Acts 2:38 KJV
I think you and I should listen to this and not think it’s for someone else.
Maybe, and maybe Francis should listen to Joel.
I fall into this so bad this word definitely spoke to me because I’m so selfish
Love it
True, Francis. You nailed it bruh!!!!
Didn't knew he's here right now. Wow.
This is great preaching..
Hope ..some of them will learned how to appreciate all the Glory must be on to the Lord...
This makes me think of Christmas cards. Remember when we sent cards to glorify God...share the spirit of the Lord? Now, we get pictures of people and all they've accomplished in the year. Makes me crazy! We are literally removing Christ from Christmas.
ouch. truth sometimes hurts. help me Lord be self less
So so so soooooo good wow
Praise God for your life pastor
This message is for me.
Hardcore truth!! Love this man because he always points people to Christ and away from themselves!! ✝️
On a side note...his jacket was made by Missterious and if you’re a fan of The Office you’ll get the reference. 😬
Wow, I suck!!! 😂 I really do, though, in a lot of ways and, yes, I too am turning selfie mode off...
God bless
