    I’ve been binge watching sermons for the last 3 weeks and hadn’t stumbled on this one. I’m going through so much pain with the end of my engagement. I prayed and asked the Lord to help me forgive. To give me strength and courage to forgive my ex. I went on a hike with some friends and got back in my car to listen to more sermons on my way home. This sermons from a year ago popped up on my suggested feed. God is so good. Thank you father 🙌🏼

      shellie bramer thank you Shellie! I’m so thankful to say it’s been almost 3 months since I was in a really bad place and God’s restored me and given me a new strength and peace. My life has been so blessed since then and I now know that I will never ever be alone and that HE is with me through the highs and the lows. Thank you for your words 🙏🏼

    The hardest person to forgive is yourself. Your self-inflicted nails are the hardest to to let go of....
    The Holy Spirit spoke to me through that....thank you

      I was in a really bad place emotionally because I had the suspicion my partner was cheating but I couldn’t confirm it. I reached out to a close friend and she introduced me to Cybermicheal. He explained how he would grant me access to my partners’ phone without him being aware, of course I was skeptical at first but I had to erase the doubts so I went through with the process and he delivered giving me access to old texts and incoming texts on Whatsapp, Voice call, Facebook, Imessage he also got me into his Instagram account and deleted messages I was able to confirm my suspicion and leave that toxic relationship contact cybermicheal1995@gmail.com whatsapp +18722250930 I made the right call doing this because of the relief I felt after you may also need this service if you find yourself with an untrustworthy partner

      Forgiveness is a decision not to revenge on someone else's trespass against you.

    • @salliegarmoe3136

      Forgiveness is undeserved Grace for a trasspass or a pardon for something they're guilty of.

      I was just crying in my bed, having wakened up at 5:30 a.m. and couldn't go back to sleep. I was crying and praying for both of my adult daughters who've had hard lives and are still struggling in their later 30s. One of my daughters is really going through a crisis right now and it breaks my heart, there's nothing I can do to help physically or materially, but I do pray. I was asking the Lord why it always had to be so hard and with so much struggling and so many strongholds. This sermon spoke so deeply about it, comforted and reassured me in all of our brokenness, remembering this is common to man and even our Jesus was broken, but came out with victory. Thank you, Pastor Steven, the Holy Spirit led me to this, this morning and I feel greatly comforted! I watch your sermons daily anyway on TV and also CZcams, and have always been blessed by them and my daughters are "fans" too. God bless ti, Holly, your children, and God's ministry in and through you!

      @GospelMessenger1 Před 3 lety +1

      The gospel by which we're saved. We're under Paul's ministry today. Therefore we're not under the law of the old testament. 1 Corinthians 15:1-4 (KJV)1 Moreover, brethren, I declare unto you the gospel which I preached unto you, which also ye have received, and wherein ye stand; 2 By which also ye are saved, if ye keep in memory what I preached unto you, unless ye have believed in vain. 3 For I delivered unto you first of all that which I also received, how that Christ died for our sins according to the scriptures; 4 And that he was buried, and that he rose again the third day according to the scriptures.
      And that takes us back to John 3:16 For God so loved the world, that he gave his only begotten Son, that WHOSOEVER believeth in him should not perish, but have everlasting life. Ephesians 2:8-9 (KJV) 8 For by grace are ye saved through faith; and that not of yourselves: it is the gift of God: 9 Not of works, lest any man should boast. So it's only by GRACE that we are saved not by works. Jesus did all the work and gave us GRACE (unmerited favor) as long as we have FAITH (believe) in the death, burial, and resurrection of Jesus Christ for SALVATION (trust in his blood). That's the gospel. Jesus said, Ye must be born again to enter into the kingdom.(accept Jesus as your SAVIOR)

    I absolutely never comment on youtube but this made me bawl crying. I am a single mother to two toddlers, my husband abandoned us completely when i was going through severe mental health issues after my daughter was born, and my biological mother and he teamed up and tried to have my babies taken from me. My children havent seen their dad in over a year and now hes talking about visiting and i couldnt work out how to be ok with it for their sake and let the hurt go. And ive been trying to find a way to forgive my biological mother and stop holding on to the anger and pain she caused me. I have been praying for guidance on how to forgive them and move on and i found this video, and god has shown me how through you. Thank you Steven for preaching so passionately and clearly and thank you god for bringing me here. Amen x

    When we fail to forgive ourselves we are failing to recognize and acknowledge the cross and what Jesus did for us. Don't allow the enemy to make you believe you aren't worthy of receiving Gods grace. I pray for anyone who has allowed others to treat them bad, dealt with low self-esteem, stayed in places far longer than they should have because sometimes our mistakes can makes us feel that way, and make us feel unworthy of receiving all the blessings God has for us. You don't need to makeup for it, you don't need to finish grace. Jesus said IT IS DONE.

    I woke up thinking about how hard it was for me to forgive a certain someone because I didn’t “feel” like I had forgiven, which in turn made me feel like a crappy person.

      @brianhyde5900 Před 4 lety +11

      If the person is still filled with resentment and bitterness and doesn’t want to receive your forgiveness, don't take it to heart. It has nothing to do with you and everything to do with them. Some may know what they’ve done is wrong-know it logically-but not feel it emotionally. Sometimes people locked in anger and pain can be self-centred, self-pitying. They’re coming from a place where ego doesn't want the discomfort of feeling sorry or feeling empathy. But that’s THEIR choice, not yours. You’re not responsible for how they feel. You’re not any part of that. Rather, remember the positive in them; hold on tight to even the smallest memory of all the good and positive things you once shared.

    I've been scarred my whole life. Depression, traumatic events, insecurities, and I even stopped believing that there's a God. But when I met Jesus last year, I came to realize that I'm not alone. I'm not alone in this fight, in this battle. He told me I am loved. The status of my faith was the same as Thomas. But when I asked for healing which I received, I know my faith has deepened at least a little. He died on the cross for my sins, and that I am saved.
    "You can't walk the road without being wounded." This preaching is really relatable and beautiful. And scars indeed gives hope. Thank you, Lord God, for Pastor Steven's life! 💕

    Definetly needed this word. I was praying for a miracle, and was hoping God was gonna magically send down a sign, but He instead sent me this video. I ended a really good relationship that at the end of the day, we just weren't seeing eye to eye. He was so good to me, so losing him felt like the wrong thing to do. But he just didn't help me in my walk with Christ. For days I would stay up regretting and wondering if I truly made the right decision. I hated myself for ruining something that I thought was good for me. But God really helped me in this time of seperation and drew me close to His' Word. I have come to peace with myself and I am slowly but surely on the road to forgiving myself. I am ready to fully out my faith in the Lord to know that His will SHALL be done in my life. I am a child of the Most High.

    You have no idea how this affected me from having a step dad that would tell me he is not my real dad. From having my step sister leave and she was my best friend. From having always being abandoned while I tried to pray and keep my family together. By not speaking to anyone in the church because I was scared of letting anyone in and maybe losing them too. This just set me free I cried so much. From being depressed. Having suicidal thoughts. I had no one to talk to. I kept closing my self up because of my honesty. Going to church on Tuesday for class Monday prayer Sunday church and serving. I saw everything I loved being torn apart and this just set me free. 😭😭😭 No more Nails!!! God your always in time!!!

    When you have a past of drug addiction, gang life, prison life, and murder, people look at you different. God has sent Jesus Christ to die for my sins and I know I've been blood washed and sanctified by the blood of the lamb. Their is therefore no condemnation for those that are I. Christ Jesus. I'm a pastor now. And I've leant that its better to serve than to be served. I've forgiven those that judged me and gossip about me I've forgiven those that hurt me and used me and abused my love. It wasn't easy but through faith all things are made possible. I have Christ Jesus living in my heart now and I've realized this if you don't forgive God can't work on our behalf. Cos vengeance is mine says the Lord God bless and Shalom
