I just want to appreciate everyone at Elevation who work to ensure that we have these services available here on YouTube. I appreciate you for bringing your church closer to us who are far and I thank you for allowing yourselves to be vessels of God in your own capacity. Thank you Pastor Steven for another amazing word. I feel blessed in my spirit.

What if God isn’t meeting my expectations because He wants to EXCEED them?! My God!!!!!! 🙌🏾

When i feel like giving up,depressed,i always listen to your preachings and i always get encouraged and motivated ,God put something special for you to give to the nations...God is so real People

My addiction of late...these sermons..my God

My expectations need to be in line with God's character.

The message is straight up fire.
And the man that yells “amen” with his very distinct voice in so many of Furtick’s sermons makes me so happy. No reason. Just does lol.

THIS GUY,, if I lived closer I can almost gurantee that I would be sitting front row err sunday.

"I thought You were gonna" ...... I believed my husband would be healed of stage 4 pancreatic cancer. When he died, I was terrified that although I had loved and followed Jesus since I was a child, maybe I didn't know HIM after all. BUT Father God is loving, patient and ALWAYS GOOD.... In the midst of the deepest darkest pit of grief, Holy Spirit delivered me to see the Savior as I never knew before. 5 1/2 yrs later I see, agree and declare........God's purpose is greater and HIS plan is bigger!

FURTICK ON FIRE!! Thank you Elevation Church for all that you do to make things possible. Thank you Pastor Steven for such a powerful word! God bless the ministry. Love from Cape Town, South Africa.

Right now I’m in pain, anxious, depressed but still going. I’m trusting God in this season that I’m in. I may never understand why what happened had to happen. I’ve stopped trying to blame myself and just do what I can. I’m letting God direct my life now and I know He will bring me thru it.

“Get around other people who are EXPECTING” love it!

THIS has to be one of my favorite Elevation sermons, today i was feeling extremely down because I had an expectation on how God was going to deliver me from depression and before i watch this i prayed that even if things don't go my way, i will still praise him. After i watched this, i felt like God was definitely speaking to me through Pastor Steven! Telling me not to rely on my thoughts, feelings or emotions but to know what God has prophesied about me, his child! i feel a million times better than i was!! i praise God, he's so amazingggg!!!

I want to move to Charlotte for this church.
"Wtf- where's the fire?? 😂😂
God fulfills his promises not our preferences"💗

This message is piercing my soul. I'm meant to be getting ready for work but I'm crying on my knees. Scared. Disappointed. Scared to let go of my expectations 😢
Disappointed because sometimes I feel God should have at least ......

Lord set me free from the need to control my life. Help me to let go. Set me free from this disappointment messing up my faith and trust in you.
Set me free from the torment of fear. Father God your daughter is scared and tired and has little or no fight left. Set my heart alight again because there's no other God but You. I cannot see or understand the 'bigger picture' and this is why I'm tired and anxious. Thank You Lord for Your word.
Amen.

God bless Pastor Furtik and Elevation Church for these messages.

I am learning to let go of my expectations and let God do what God does best......meet my needs and not act like a child

Being unemployed is getting the best of me..

God chose this man to preach his word. He has written and preached 1h 30m long sermons for 13 YEARS! No human can do that.
