Don’t Let The Funeral Fool You | Pastor Steven Furtick | Elevation Church

Don’t let the disappointment of this season cause you to quit growing and relying on God. Have a funeral for your expectations, leave it with God, and let Him open your eyes to what’s next. 

Each year, we come together to stretch our faith by giving a sacrificial offering, believing that God will move in our lives and in our church in the coming year. To take part in this offering and help us in reaching more people with the gospel all around the world click here:

    Wow how timely a word, my mom passed 2 weeks ago today I was broken by caring in combative situations but God followed me as I went over the edge yelling at her that the Bible says parents don’t exasperate your children but then prayed & came back to tell her that I was sorry for yelling as that’s not how I want to be & she came to clarity and said she was bad & knew I just wanted to be kind and help them I wept, amazing how we had a wonderful day for her last day on earth as Holy Spirit led me to cut her hair, never did that in my life with other good things that day before I found her early 2 Sunday’s ago gone, I have entered a beautiful season of healing heading towards Thanksgiving & Christmas, this time with my Savior is sacred and with the eyes of faith then I will enter into all He’s got for me 💕🙌🙌🙌🙏

    I needed this! My fiancé broke it off last week because she wanted to be alone. I’ve been a wreck. We have a 3 year old son and 4 older kids(step kids). I’m a truck driver so I’m alone and in the truck 24/7. I was big on faith and have been sliding the last 5 years. This past week and a half I’ve been praying not to get back together but for his will, knowledge, and strength. For her to heal and for my kids. Everytime I open YouTube has been one of your sermons speaking right to me! Thank you for what you do! Definitely has made this a lot easier for me

    Every morning on my hour, drive to work as an addiction counselor and the very prison that I used to be a resident of. I listen to your sermons. I know that it is unlikely that you’ll see this comment as you get millions of them, but I thank you because every day you remind methat Jesus loved me even when I was addicted, even when I was being trafficked and he was going to open the door, but no man can close.
