Elevation with Steven Furtick

Have you ever felt like your struggles just keep multiplying and won't go away? Most of the time we let them linger by making excuses, blaming them on someone else, or not wanting to take action to get rid of them. But what should our response be? In this sermon from Code Orange Underground, world-renown speaker, Bible teacher, and author, Joyce Meyer, reminds us how God, through His ultimate victory, has already conquered the battles in our lives.

Change is never easy. And it is rarely painless. But it is inevitable. We all go through different times and seasons that require us to change. Some changes we hope for, and other change we reluctantly go through. But often as Christians, we pray that God would change our situations, rather than praying for a change within ourselves. This Christmas, Pastor Steven shows us through the Christmas story how God takes us through change, and the promise that remains the same no matter the season we are in.

The greatest seasons of faith in our lives don't occur when we're on the mountain top, when life is going as planned and God's favor is most tangible. In reality, it's when we're in our lowest valley. When we push against our natural inclination to lock the doors of our heart and wait for winter to pass. It's there where we learn to fight for our faith, battling our feelings and our circumstances, and allow God to work through our pain to draw us closer to Him. In part 3 of our series Times & Seasons, Pastor Steven teaches us a better way to weather the winter, making our painful seasons more productive for God's glory.

When we look back on our lives, it's safe to say that none of us want to feel like we've wasted the time we've been given. We all want to live with purpose and meaning. We want to know what God wants us do and when He wants us to do it. So how do we figure that out before it's too late? How do we avoid missing out on what God wants us to be a part of? In part two of our series Times and Seasons, Pastor Steven explains to us how time in scripture can teach us how God wants us to make the most of every moment we've been given.

Our life is not one fluid, unobstructed movement of progress. Rather, it's a collection of different times and seasons, filled with mountain tops and valleys, blessing and drought, fulfillment and brokenness. And when we realize what season of life we're currently in - good or bad - what is our response? Do we try to knuckle down and just get through it? Do we pray for our days to just fast forward to the next season? Do we wish we could even switch lives with other people in better seasons? In the first part of our series Times and Seasons, Pastor Steven teaches us how through Christ, God has equipped us to find purpose in every season of our lives.

There will be times in all our lives where we will be standing face to face with our most intimidating situations. And we have choice as to how we respond. Do we run away in fear? Do we crush ourselves under a weight we were never meant to carry alone? Do we give up and just accept inevitable failure? Or is there another way - a better way? In the second part of our series 52 Days of Thanks and Praise, Pastor Steven teaches us how to our relationship with Christ allows us to reframe the perspective of our problems.

As Christians, we have been called to represent Christ to a lost and hurting world. To show to others the grace of God that has been so freely given to us. To live lives worthy of the calling we have received. But we all have parts of our lives that do not reflect Jesus. Some days it's our attitude and outlook. Other days it's the words we say to others or to ourselves. In this sermon from our series '52 Days of Thanks and Praise' Pastor Steven teaches us the power the Holy Spirit has to locate the unbecoming areas of our lives and help clothe ourselves with the righteousness of Christ each and every day.
