Lonely Places | Pastor Steven Furtick | Elevation Church

I know how the man with leprosy felt. I've lived with HIV for 26 years. When Covid came about, I didn't fear it. When people refused to work with the covid patients, I said I'm here, send me. When someone asked wasn't I scared, I said no, I walk by faith. No one knew of my dark place but my dark place has brought peace to so many When I wasn't scared to touch or hug them.

This message reminds me when I was in my lonely place. When I thought the world was against me. I was depressed and even suicidal. Attempted suicide for then 5 times. Took pill overdose painkillers sleeping pills even rat poison. Slept in tears every night hoping to die. But the funny thing is all the time I prayed for death I felt his mercy saying that my story isn't over its just starting. And I have a greater perpose in Him. O Lord you are great and merciful you deserve the praise

I was literally laying on my couch thinking to myself how lonely I am, came to YouTube to distract my mind and this sermon was on my time line. My God, what a right on time word 😢🙌🏽🙌🏽🙌🏽

Going through a loooonnnggg lonely season. I know God does things at His timing, but I wonder how long it will last. I pray for patience. I pray God works on me and my emotions. Grant me PEACE Lord. Show me mercy and grace to learn to be alone with me. To be ok with me. To love me. To take care of me.

I typed in "a word about loneliness" and this was the first that popped up. I thank you Lord for this Word. Reminding me to draw closer to Him. Been broken for soo long and tired of pretending I'm okay for everyone else. Indeed His presence Always. I pray I'm renewed and strengthened by His Grace. Amen.

Hello, my name is Amy and I have been in such a lonely spot in my life for a while. I've been struggling with severe anxiety and depression. I have never felt so low in my life and constantly battle with all these negative thoughts in my head. I want to have a future and continue moving forward in my life, I want to prosper and grow and be there for the people who love me. Most importantly I want/need God in my life. I don't want the enemy to win. For anyone who comes across this comment, please pray for me.

I was recently released from prison. I was able to draw close to Him while I was there. Your message touched me because I am estranged from my family. While I am in a beautiful Christian home with awesome women, the newness of being released has left me feeling a little lonely. Jesus has been walking with me through the dark times in my life and He is here now. Sometimes we just need reminding. Thank you Pastor for reminding me.

Hello, my name is Sammie and I'm 23 years old in nursing school and I'm just asking for a little bit of prayer, prayer for me to have the drive to continue on with nursing school. It gets tough because I do feel all alone in world of amazing people and today this sermon has opened up a great part of my mind to understand that I am not alone. Update: I lost my way a little bit along the journey but God directed me back and I’m now a Pediatric RN by God grace alone. Thank you all for your encouraging words.

I can't hide my spots anymore 😪 I hid behind the shadows of lies, guilt & shame . My purpose is greater than my pain 💯❤🤗😘🤗 ☝🙏☝

No Matter How Lonely you are, You Are Never Alone!!! Thank You JESUS!!! HOLY SPIRIT!!!

I confess in my tongue and in my Heart that Jesus is my savior and I am no longer a slave. I am not alone anymore.

i lost my job before lockdown and being a single parent there is nowhere to go. Pastor Steve, please pray for my life in my lonely place. Thank you.

Nearly 2 years later and needed this today. This video found me. I was trying to do something else, and this word came to me just when I needed it.

I needed this! The doctors don’t know what is wrong with me. It’s hard to walk, I fall all the time. All my bills are behind. I feel the weight of the world on me. I am lonely, but I’m connecting to my God for comfort! Pray for me as I pray for you and the ministry.

GOD SAVED ME AND I STILL STRUGGLE WITH REAL LIFE...HE DID IT ANYWAY!!! HE DID IT FOR ME AND HE'LL DO IT FOR YOU TOO!!! LOVE YOU PASTOR STEVEN 🙏🙏

The cure to a lonely heart is to be alone with Jesus

Thank you so much for this message. I am a widow and have been feeling lonely.

You have no idea how badly I needed to hear this. I’m listening while I work. Tears rolling. Thank you!! Mostly thank Jesus for still loving me.
