The Gift Of Victory | Pastor Steven Furtick | Elevation Church

Each year, we come together to stretch our faith by giving above and beyond in support of all we're believing God for in this next season. If you would like to participate in this Year-End Offering, click here: elevationchurch.org/year-end/

If you're going through a tough battle in your life, remember the times Christ stepped in and fought your battles. Never does the bible say one "Stress over it" "Worry about it" or "figure it out" But more than a million times, in clear print, over and over it says "Trust God." Don't let things of this world weigh you down because it's not even yours to carry. He will make a way, He will provide everything you need. Either emotionally, spiritually or financially. He will make a way when there is no way....

Prayers are all we need, so Please pray for me. I keep faith in Jesus! Even though I’m struggling putting groceries in my refrigerator and paying bills. I have two beautiful children both are autistic, so they require a lot from me. I lost my job as a social worker at Forsyth hospital because I declined the vaccine. I declined because of my pre existing health condition lupus and heart disease. I’m in constant pain because of my lupus, and I already suffered a heart attack. I was denied my medical/religious exemption. I wish I could go back to the hospital but the mandate is STILL in place for hospitals that participate in Medicare and Medicaid all workers must be vaccinated against covid 19. I’m waitressing and I’m so THANKFUL to be working again, but I’m not making nearly enough to make ends meet. I get harassed and called names for simply asking for prayers, it makes me want to give up, but prayers work God hears ALL OF our prayers. It is JESUS that gives me strength to keep going. I have faith God will provide. He Thank you FATHER. WITH GOD ALL THINGS ARE POSSIBLE! Please pray for me and my children.

Sometimes I feel like god is talking directly to me through this man. My faith has grown so much

It’s Tuesday 12/6/22. I am getting it pastor. This is the 4th year of my Life with Jesus. 4th year of my sobriety. The 4th year i’ve been listening to your messages. They have helped me grow and have challenged me in many areas. Sometimes I think it’s so crazy you have a large church when these messages so obviously are for me. It is absolutely crazy how your message in my life events have synced up. Makes me feel like I’m on the Truman show. For real. Be encouraged pastor and know that you’re efforts and faithfulness are reaping a harvest

I like when pastor said, “do not use forgiveness as permission for failure.” Thank you for this! 😊

"God gives us the victory. Don't use forgiveness as permission for failure. Stop stopping. Victory is something that is won. We fight from victory!!" This is so powerful🔥🔥 I GOT IT💪 amen🙏!!

Hi I have been a born again for 8 years but I have found myself backsliding I need prayer because I truly desire to go back to my fist love which is Jesus and so difficult. So please pray for me... I wanna remain faithful ...

I loved this sermon so much, I watched it twice on the live stream today. Can you please add the music to the end of this video like it was in the live? It was so so so so good to wrap it all up. It brought me to tears. . . “I’m going to see my body healed..for the battle belong to you, Lord. I’m going to see deliverance..for the battle belongs to you, Lord. I’m going to see a mountain moved..for the battle belongs to you, Lord.”

Dearest Jesus Forgive the hurt I am feeling right now. Forgive all of the trespassing Lord Jesus Christ my personal savior and friend. Amen

Lord strengthen my faith and allow me to never give up on the gifts you have given me, help me to help others see you through me. 🙏 Amen

Dear God, you are holy and majestic. You will be worshipped by all the creatures of the earth. When we approach your holy throne through worship, thank you for accepting us as we are. We humble ourselves before you and ask that you would forgive us for any sin that is an offense to your holiness, O Lord. Even though you inspire healthy fire, thank you for allowing us to come to you. Build your kingdom here and allow others to see your kingdom through me. May I serve you with awe and wonder. In Jesus' name, amen.

We need a Part 2. . Because I have a big question. How? How do we claim victory? What about those of us who gave all that we have, done all that we can do, but still failed time after time. What else can we do?? How do we claim the victories that God has promised us, when all we have ever known since birth is failure? That's all I've known my whole life. EVERYTHING I have ever done I have failed, fallen short. No matter how much I pray, no matter how hard I fight. No matter what I do for God and to honor him. My question is HOW? Just telling me the same thing every other preacher does, doesn't help me. I ALREADY know he promised me victory. And I chase after it with all I have relentlessly even now 26 years later. But I always fall short, and fail. What ACTIONS can I take or do now? How or what do I need to implement into my life to actually receive the victories? I'm not mad, but I'm frustrated. I need to know how to act, what to say, what to do. .just how to implement changes to receive what God has called for me. I don't mind being challenged, I want to change. I want to become all that God has designed for me. But if I don't know how to implement it with my real world actions then what's even the point? I pursue God daily. I chase him more and more. My thoughts are always coming back to him daily. I pray all that I can pray. I talk to him constantly. What more can I do? I'm not losing my faith; I refuse to let go. I believe God will give me all that he says. But is there anything that I have to do, in order to receive it? Or is waiting patiently all that I can do?

I pray that God expands my territory. This year has been difficult financially. But still I praise him in this storm because God Is Good

Lord Jesus glorify yourself in my entombment. Send your Holy Spirit to remove the stone from the entrance to the place where my mind and my heart are imprisoned. Call out my name, rid me of the grave clothes that hinder me from walking in the victory and abundant life that you bought for me in the cross. Deliver me from the generational lies, fear and condemnation, that have intimidated me into accepting a false identity that is comfortable and convenient to those around me, and thinking that there is nothing for me beyond this limited mindset. Thank you for chasing me with your word, that has been taking the bandage from my eyes and brought me to this point where I can understand what has been hindering me. May you similarly open the eyes and hearts and deliver all my house and of those who love you. Make us all instruments of your peace. Holy is your name Lord. Amen.

What a man a fighter a real man A fighter for Christ Do not take forgiveness to carry on in failure
