Stop Stressing Over Imaginary Scenarios | Steven Furtick
Whoever reading this, God knows what you are facing through, He heard your cry,He is going to deliver you. Just trust in Him. Amen
🙏
Hi im Kelli Robertson from Ga.USA. I DID READ IT AND YOU ARE CORRECT i need it . I know he listens but my heart and soul are heavy!!! Thank you @Onye oma Chinyeremaka for your kind words .
Amen. Thank you & many Blessings to you!
Amen
Thank you I needed that
I don't know who needs this, but just know God is going to heal your broken heart. You're going to laugh again,You're going to trust again,and you're going to have peace again. God is going to restore everything you've lost. Amen
Amen.
Amen
Amen!
That's for me thanks amen🙏🏾
Amen! I fully believe this was meant for me today.
🤔Don't stress about it. Jesus got you covered. Trust in Him.
Amen
Amen and Amen
Amen
Let go and Let God 🙌🙃🙌
Do you read the scriptures? Have you looked at the lives of the prophets the Apostles? Have you looked at the history of the genuine Christian Church, thier suffering? What it cost men and women over the history of the church to follow Christ to proclaim God's gospel? Have you ever read about the lives of the Puritans or the reformers or missionaries, or bible translators like Tyndale. Your comment is shallow it dosent honor those who give thier lives to follow Christ. Jesus told His followers the world would hate them and slander them persecute them and even kill them for following Christ. It's not about your personal happiness, having your best life free of suffering and trials. It's about about getting the gospel of God out to the world no matter the circumstances or cost, for the glory of God and the salvation of sinners. It's all about the Fathers glory, the Saviors exaltation, honoring the Holy Spirit, in our life and our death. Elevation church is not a church, Steven is not a Pastor,, they preach a different Jesus, scripture warns about just such men and women and the false gospel they preach. I pray your eyes will be open to the deception of elevation church and Steven Furtick.
As I am overthinking, creating scenarios in my head about a situation, and my anxiety is extremely high...this video pops up and the title speaks to my soul.
Same, I needed this.
same
Can we appreciate that this man goes above and beyond to illustrate his message.
Dude how many times did you comment
@@gmccool1576 this comment's everywhere
Amen
God knew I needed this I’ve been stressing so much about stuff I make up in my mind and it’s making me feel insane. I’ve been putting my boyfriend through the worst. I need God I’ve been turning my back on him
YOU ARE NOT ALONE SIS 💛 🤝 💓
Your bf is totally cheating on you
You're not alone at all!!
Haha I love it. "My marriage isn't working." Pastor Steven, "CAUSE YOU'RE NOT!"
My Dad always told me to get married with the mindset of, "I'm going to make this other person's life happier."
That many times people go into it thinking, "They're going to make me so happy." And it'll be really disappointing and won't work with that idea.
This man's ministry literally SAVED my family! (Well God working through him 🙏)
How did he do that, if you don't mind sharing?
@@lucianhodoboc1611 When my wife and I were going through the roughest time of our marriage my wife listened to Steven's ministry a lot(She watched a lot of Hope City as well).
What she learned she passed on to me...
Wow! What a transformation in our marriage 😍
That is truly awesome. Bless you and your family. ❤️
Matt, Thank you for sharing a little bit about how this ministry has touched you and your family. May God continue to let his blessings flow upon you and yours! 🙏SF Team
Praise God!
I’m in a season of loneliness and being single. I’ve always wanted a girlfriend, but now I found God along the way and I am complete in him. I still long to find my girl, and I feel like I’m losing my grip and stick with what I know in lust. I’m starving from it. In jesus name, I pray for perseverance and faith, help me in this season and thank you for the greatest girl I will soon meet,amen.
Dont look for a gf, wait for your wife
God sees you
Praying for you tonight, Joe. God bless!
Get busy in Jesus's family and He won't disappoint.
I was just crying to my mom yesterday about this and I open CZcams to see this as the first thing. Thank you Lord 🙌🏽✨
Jesus loves you!
@@sophiedenning7853 thank you so much 😊 He loves you as well💕
Happy Valentine's 🥰 💕🎁🌹❤️
Pastor Furtick, you are speaking my language with this title and message. I have been praying and asking God to remove imaginary thinking from my life, especially when it's always negative. God bless
“Love the Lord your God with all your heart and with all your soul and with all your strength and with all your mind and ‘Love your neighbor as yourself” Luke 10:27💕
These 21 minutes video killed my anxiety the whole video healed me
Especially when se said
You are thinking about the things you are never gonna face
You create complications by messing with them
Thanks Pastor.
Hope to see you in person one day.
✝️✝️IN THE NAME OF JESUS.
😍🤗😊If you see the moon, You see the beauty of God, if you see the power of God and if you see the mirror,You see the best creation of God, so believe in youself.Praise God
You'll go in with expectations of romance and then you'll meet a friend called reality😢💓💓
jesus loves you !
What?
Crazy!
Stopp!!!
No!!
She'll think you're the best😭
Honestly, if nothing else, if I don't always feel blessed from the sermons (which I do), from the worship (which I do), from the support and giving I see Elevation doing (which I do), I love that I'm a part of the church where the pastor and his wife just such a beautiful, real marriage. I pray that I can be as wonderful a wife to my future husband, as Holly is to pastor Steven. I pray I will respect, honor and encourage my husband and that he will cherish, love and lift me up as well, as we live the life of worship and sacrifice to the Lord together. Thank you pastor Steven and Holly for showing us what a beautiful, godly marriage looks like! 😊❤
Imaginary scenarios...God I need help with that🙏
When I say GOD is amazing and so timely I can not express enough! I am going through a long stressful season in my marriage with confusion on how to move forward and every point that Steven mentioned hit home for me. I clicked on this to gain encouragement with my mind and the battles I face concerning my mind. But God had much more or a surprise in store for me UNEXPECTEDLY. Glory be to God and thank you for choosing Steven to be the vessel in carrying out His word
May healing locate your marriage in Jesus name!
@@Keekssithole thank you received! Amen
I’m pretty much convinced that no therapist/counselor can help me with my intrusive thoughts, bad dreams and whatever else comes with OCD, the farther I stray from God the more I find myself in these mind battles with myself expecting bad things to happen and the only cure I can find is from God. please pray for me and help me get through this rough time in my life . God is amazing and has did many good things in my life and I never want to leave his presence because I know he has all power and can protect me ! God is so good. Always remember that Jesus loves you
Peach pastor paise the lord this is very very true the world need it thank Jesus and pastor John and pastor Jim
Thank you for watching, please feel free to share your favourite takeaway from this message ^SF Team
Pastor Steve you look 15 without your beard😂 Amen beautiful truth let’s treat our marriages right and make God proud.
Pastor Steve Please Pray for My family All the way From The Philippines.
May God be with you and your family
Christianity isn't all about you, it's all about Christ it's all about God's glory.
This video hits it right there. I don’t know why I’ve spent the years creating these ridiculous scenarios in my mind with people and stuff that most likely wouldn’t happen, and some that might, but I realize, why entertain these thoughts? I feel like I’m losing my mind and just going nuts, like why do I do this to myself? I feel like a fool after every scenario, where I’m yelling at people, criticizing people, fighting with people, imagining people that are judging me and I worry about what they think. Why I keep going back to this stuff I need to ask myself, and then I realize that Steven’s other video talks about seeking the familiar, even if it’s what I can’t stand, what makes me upset. I need to get away from that. All of this. I try with perseverance every day, but it’s just so hard. It’s like the harder I try to stop, the harder that these habits come back. Please pray for me. I know that nothing happens in my own strength and ability. I have to to let go.
Encourage your strengths......
CEO, chief encouragement officer.
Loved this......
7:44 "get burn trying 2 get warm"oh that hits
This is crazy! I needed to hear this message. Not finished listening to it yet but I know God send this message to me.
I did not grow up in church and yes I believe in God and I love and worship HIM. People used to say "folks will turn to God when they need something." I heard this a lot growing up but never paid any attention to it until......I found out it, it really is true. I was the "folks.'" When my dad passed away my world was crushed. I did not know how I was going to function and get through life....until I said "GOD." I immediately got on the lap top just so I could hear the WORD and so GOD could start mending my broken heart. I needed this to happen immediately within a week lol.....Then I saw this man and his name was Steve Furtick. I started listening to him and man did he make you think. When he would say things, I would go and study what he said. I no longer felt the rush to heal my heart. My heart will heal in time but during the healing process I am gonna learn about Jesus and just how GOOD HE IS! I know HE IS THE WAY TO my broken heart. I trust him. I want to say thank you Steve Furtick for coming into "my life" through a 15 inch screen. It's a small screen but through it I was able to see the bigger picture.
Lord knows how much I needed this right now
Married for 26 years. Sin and unreal expectations brought us close to divorce. This word from Pastor Furtick contains real and sound Godly advice needed for marriage today. 🙏🏽
LET GO AND LET GOD!! IT’S GONNA BE OK🙏🏼🌈😇
Always remember who’s got your back!! Can you change anything? Be safe and enjoy everyday as if it’s your last day on earth!!🙏🏼❤️🌈🥰🙋♀️
AMEN!🙏
TRUST IN JESUS
Grreat wife , great husband , you two belong together, I’m learning to be a ceo😂😂
If you rearrange the letters in “depression” you get “I pressed on.” Your current situation is not your destination. Keep going. Your breakthrough is almost here.
I stress about everything don't know how to. Stop
Same
give it to God. Pray to Him for peace as you let Him in on your situation (which He already knows but its a good way for you to know as well what you understand about your situation)
Thank you.. I was getting myself into relationship but I had think this is what God wants for me or I'm I allowing my emotions to rule me I had to put some rules.. 🔥🔥🇬🇾
20:02 wow on Elijah story that is true. I maybe running from stuff i may never have to face .
If anyone sees this please pray for me. I’ve been divorced and I’ve learned sense and it pains me that allowed it even though there was no adultery as the reason. I repent of it and I want my kingdom back. I’ve seen signs of it but I’m in a contradiction. I don’t just need prayer, I also need belief that he will. I believe but it’s so hard for me. Thank you family.
Lord God, we pray for Hunter as he goes through this season in his life. We do not know the details, but You are the God of all things, so we lift him up to you today. Please heal his heart, and set his thoughts in the right direction so he may find happiness and peace through You. In Jesus name we pray. Amen.

Such truths....especially the imaginary scenarios.....
So good even when you were just a baby love to see even the old preaching
Wow!!! I definitely needed to hear this!! I was asking myself and overthinking this
morning (as usual lol). Was looking for something to listen to and I came across this video! It’s soo timely and I got the answers I needed! Thank God for your wisdom!!!🙌🏽🙏🏾🥰
Joanne, we are glad you found this message. What was your biggest takeaway from this message? SF Team
@@stevenfurtick What really stood out to me is the point you made on the 80:20 Rule;
You mentioned how most people leave the 80 that they love or have, for the 20 that they want, how we should watch out cuz that 20 may be all there is to offer.
I was in a situation where I was in the middle of deciding between 2 things and this message really helped me in my thought process and decision making.
Really changed my perspective on stuff.
It honestly was timely 🙌🏽
You also mentioned that we tend to run from some things, that we’re not even gonna have to face! I can totally relate to that lol 😆
Great insight, pastor looks like a young Channing Tatum
Too good! I swear Pastor was listening to my prayers last night lol 😆 🙏 praise God for pastors like you!
This was so good! Thank you for sharing church!
He lost 20 years when he shaved 🙂
Right!? I thought this was an old sermon they uploaded because he looks so much younger 😂😂😂
@@OliviaBrynnnn 😂 I thought the same
Amen
I LOVE this. This was SOOO necessary🙌🏼👏🏼
God bless you brother! If I ever were a Pastor or preacher one day you are the kind I'll want to be
God bless you 😇
Preach it APPRECIATE THE 80% , this really just did a powerful thing for my mindset, thank you Steven!
your running from something your never gonna have to face amen 🙏 (scenarios)
for the over-thinkers like me

Wow beautiful word as always . This is what I needed to hear. I'm glad he can still Preach the word yet have a down to earth conversation.
Really dope message! Praise GOD 🙏🏿🙏🏿✊🏿✊🏿
Mind blowing for sure!!! I just got this revelation that we’re loyal to an idea rather the reality💯
Thank you pastor, good stuff as always!
