    I’m on my senior year of highschool and covid19 has really ruinned many things for me. My future became even more uncertain and I lost many opportunities. I pretended like it was all okay. I showed a smile to my parents telling them that I could make it through. But deep inside I had anxiety ripping off every but of my soul, depression crawling towards me again, stress, worry, and so many more emotions. I didn’t realize until now that every single droplet of rain had a purpose. God sent down a rain to reveal that I was unable to do this alone. He was trying to assure me that everything was under control in His hands if I just let Him do His work. I let so much rain go down the drain but I won’t let any of it go to waste anymore. I receive your rain God. I leave all my anxiety, fear, and worries at your feet. I will confidently walk through this storm with you by my side. Thank you for this great message Pastor Furtick.

      He is the God of endless opportunities and even though things look so different now, I promise those opportunities that you feel like you are missing out on God will produce a double portion just for you. Use this time now to receive your double portion of time with Christ - reading the word, praying, spending time with his people, worship, this is our time to be close to God while the world and everything else has shut down. The drought will be over and it'll then be your time to receive and harvest everything God would have built in you during this season. He's building your character and making you strong for your next season 🙏

    We went through a very difficult season in our marriage recently. A friend shared a sermon with me. Changed my outlook, changed my life. I feel the word so much that it's almost a bit uncomfortable. I had to get up from my chair and pace around. I refused to give up on our family unit. The issues are just coming to the surface. We are working together now. My husband who was 100% a nonbeliever shared a song about angels with me. We both know the rain stormed down on our marriage to wake us both up ...praise God!!!

    This hit me! I am going thru an unwanted divorce (I am standing firm on god’s promise for restoration) my husband and I were missing the foundation (GOD) and I said to him I’m praying for restoration and I prayed to GOD to allow us a 2nd chance to rebuild on the RIGHT foundation 🙏🏽💜 this brought tears to my eyes. I was questioning if I should fight for my marriage - this was the confirmation I asked for in my car... in the Rain. Hallelujah!!!

      Well you're a step ahead of most because you realize what's been getting in the way and now with the power of the Holy Spirit you can fight through this. You are already victorious in Jesus and more than a conqueror. May you stay close to God's word, sermons, worship music and his people. May you receive the forgiveness and grace Jesus already died for you to have. Whatever it is, God's peace is there for you to receive and he knows your heart. God bless you

    As I was praying, I asked God what to do next. He sent me here. I searched “Sunday church service” and this came up. His word was surely not wasted tonight, and now I have a Pastor. With covid and 3 kids, I stay in my comfort zone. My home. But that doesn’t mean I can’t have service in my home. The Lord delivers, and he delivered tonight for me. Thank you Lord. And thank you Pastor Steven!

    “Wasted Rain” is a reminder that God wastes nothing, so neither should we. The rain is trials AND truth depending on where we find ourselves in scripture. Whichever the case may be, it would be wise to not waste either. I love how Pastor Steven hit home with the rain revealing the rock. What have we built our lives around? What is still under construction in our lives that we simply need to lay down our own tools and pick up the Word? We cannot build alone. I love how he emphasized that the trials in our lives are growing seasons. Let the rain water the thoughts that are edifying to our lives and the church and the world! Inconveniences and interruptions can be a call to attention. What are we focused on? Are we building just to build or is there a purpose to what we are creating in and with our lives? What is truly reigning in yours and in mine? That’s the ultimate question. When we knows what reigns in our hearts then the rain will never be wasted.

    I have believed in God through out my life but never had a relationship with him or accepted him as my personnel savior. After watching my older sister pass away, I hated God. I watched this sermon on a whim one day, turned it on and jumped in the shower, not even knowing the title was wasted rain. Needless to say I ended up bawling my eyes out. Fast forward 2 years and I am getting baptized next month with my husband who I have been praying to have a heart of flesh. We have our own local church family now. Pastor Steven thank you for sharing God's love. Thank you and your family for all you have done in His name. Thank you for sharing the hard truths, and worshipping WITH your parishioners and not just preaching at us.

  • @miraclehappenseverydayever8762

    You have to release the negative, so u can receive the positive, as if a door get closed then some more will open, the rain will feed everything in your life what you focus on, the good or the bad, but no one can be destroyed because God put everyone a foundation to come against everything what is against you, the life is not to you, the life is happening for you, never forget the best is yet to come!! ❤️😇

    I've recently lost a 9yr relationship, I've walked without the lord for so many years now and this relationship was also without him. He sent the rain and has revealed what I had built on. And while this hurts beyond anything I've ever experienced and I've lost so much, I hear his calling. I will not build on sand again, I cannot waste this rain. I want your plan lord, I'm leaving the pieces behind and building with you.

I pray for a lot and o feel like this is a sign telling me to stop running from what GOD is trying to give me. After my mental breakdown yesterday, I needed to hear this. I will no longer run!

    Thank you from snow country. What God planted in me as a kid was never watered till later in life. I always heard about God but never knew God until later on. Six years ago after I killed myself (obviously I was brought back) I met God through people that watered it. I always asked God to flood me with His love but He knew better. He started slow until my heart was big enough to accept it.

    God is growing me. Jesus spoke to me personally through this sermon. This message will continue to take root into my life through prayer, meditation, journaling, etc.
    I suffered with depression for a long time but I have had moments in my life where I was able to receive the peace of God. This peace is truly attainable. My frequent prayer request to God has been to grow spiritually close to God. I realize it’s difficult to maintain a continuous spiritual relationship while living in the flesh. It is effortless to deviate to fleshly desires. However prayer was to become closer to God. To live a spiritual life, forsaking the temptations of the flesh. I mentioned my diagnosis of depression because I became severely depressed after a false sense of reality believing my prayers were heard by God but not feeling or seeing His presence, that it was something within me too wicked or unrighteous that created a barrier to God. This sermon is my rain but it won’t be wasted. This sermon was God speaking to me .

    It's been a few weeks since the last time I listened to Ps. Steven. Things happened so fast this few weeks. Right now when I'm writing this comment, it's already 04.21 a.m in my country and I haven't sleep for a while. Both my husband and my newborn already slept. I know I should use this moment to sleep too. But I can't. I can't sleep at all. There's so much thoughts in my brain and I wish everything would go away. I tried to put in into words, but I don't know what to write.
    I just had a baby on 19th November. My baby born 4 weeks faster than his actual labor day. Tbh, me and my husband still hasn't finish with our preparation welcoming the baby. But things happened too fast. It's been 5 days after the labor day, and we still adapting to our parenthood season.
    My mom and my husband has been so supportive towards me. They did things that I couldn't do. My whole body is a mess. Because of the urgency of labor, the doctor choose to do the labor by normal procedure. I got 15 stitches down there and it hurts so much. When I tried to pee for the first time, I almost passed out in my toilet. I never thought that I will get baby blues syndrome. I cried most of the time. I can't walk properly and all my body aches. I feel like a failed mom. While my husband do most of the work, I can't even going to toilet and do my business. My breast milk isn't enough for my baby and I need to give him another milk.
    I feel like a failure. And I keep crying. I feel like I'm not suitable as a mom. I'm not ready. I can't handle the pain
