When you say, “I can’t,” God says, “I can.”

In “Ugly Trust,” we’re reminded to trust God in difficult seasons — because He always hears us, even in the midst of fear and uncertainty.

    14 months sober ❤️‍🔥 Only by the grace of God
  • I'm 43 and received a terminal diagnosis. The world says I don't have a long time here but I am believing in a miraculous healing from God. I have four teenage daughters who need their momma. I'm all they have. I pray God heals me and I pray my faith will be strong enough to believe it. Amen... Edit to add that I have a very painful biopsy in two days and it has a high risk of bleeding, I'm kinda scared. Thank you for your prayers.

    Whoever reading this, God never sends you into a situation alone, God goes before you, He stands beside you, He walks behind you. Whatever situation you have right now be confident. God is with you. Ameen

    I'm 45 and just celebrated 4 years of sobriety this morning! It's all by God's grace and love! I've only recently given my heart to Jesus and I am amazed at how complete my heart feels and how much better my life and my family's life have become! Thank you for helping facilitate my journey! I found you by complete accident! You have changed my outlook and life! God Bless

    I just lost my mom and felt so desperate for understanding and peace of mind. I lost both my big brothers also, and I cast this on my t.v. and it finally brought me peace. Thank you.

  • @susanfrancis8865
    39 years ago I cried out to the Lord and he heard me!!! Psalm 34:17 was spray painted on the hood of my car when we had a horrible accident into a tree and telephone pole. I knew we were going to hit I screamed out Jesus as loud as I could!!!! He sent his angels to protect me and my husband from death!! Praise his name!!!🙌🏼🙏🏻🙏🏻🙌🏼 Wish I could show you the picture of my car!

    I'm looking for prayers for my son. Severely addicted to drugs, psychosis, and in severe trouble with the law. Tomorrow he meets with his attorney, and a family friend that runs the county addiction program. I pray that he makes the right choice. The attorney and family friend will drive him immediately to rehab so he can be clean before he starts going to court. Thank you..

    This sermon will always be special to me. I was listening in the car late Sunday because I was helping my oldest son move into his new apartment. My 12 yr old hears Church every Sunday, but I just recently started attending again (online) so he wasn't raised in Church like I was, so I am letting him make the decision about his beliefs. Last Sunday, as I listened I noticed he was listening too....like turned off his phone and was listening. I've noticed him listening before, but never like this. He asked questions as we listened and I was happy he was engaging in the lesson. Out of nowhere, he asked if he could be baptised! When I tell you I knew in that moment that everything him and I had been through over the last few years (divorce is ugly).....was for a purpose. It was God not only drawing me back to Him....but He was drawing me back to Him so that He could draw my son to Him. I knew in that moment that he will be ok. Thank you Pastor Furtick! For deciding to come preach tired and jetlagged....your word touched my son so much that he is choosing to make a commitment to God! Thank you God for the season U thought would take us down! Turns out it was just His protection!
