This message has saved my marriage! Because I had struggled for many years and today, my wife and I have finally broke through and finally started communication. And we have laid aside the past pain we both experienced and the defense we had when a problem arose. Thank you.

"Sometimes my trying gets in the way of my trusting!" 🤯Incredible!

[sarahrivas]

"you're so used to doing things alone, you keep telling yourself the same story" was meant for me. God spoke to me so much at the end. i love this

I’m battling infertility and this message came at the best time. I had just decided I can’t keep trying on my own and I listened to God when He told me to just wait and trust Him. Surrendering and giving it all to God. 🙌🏻

I watched this live yesterday & I felt Pastor Steven speaking directly to me... I'm exhausted trying to get out of my current situation. When trying ends, trusting starts & miracles happen💯👌🏼🙌🏼🙏🏼

I have struggled with depression for over 20 years. I believe God has a purpose for my life (as for everyone's), but sometimes my vision gets clouded. So a long time ago, I decided to simply pray "Thy will be done." My will was so broken. I was so stuck and paralyzed by fear. People would ask me "what do you want?" and I wouldn't have an answer. A little while later an answer came to my heart "I want to want." I just wanted to feel enough to feel the power of will, to get to a place where desire and action can meet so I could begin the task of trying to align my will with His. After years of "wanting to want, " I finally feel a little spark of desire again. "Do you want to get well?" is a question I have an answer for! Yes! I can feel myself moving past the paralysis, and I know if God has prepared a good work in me, I want badly enough to trust Him.

[TeeHeish]

I keep coming back to this sermon time and time again for years and continue to share it with others.

[rebekahsomers]

Sometimes we get stuck in trying instead of trusting! 🔥

[wisetow]

I need prayer so bad y’all. My marriage and personal struggles has gotten me to a very unhealthy place. To the point I’m losing hope. Prayers appreciated

[laydeeleshay]

“You cared and cared, but they didn’t care back” this message for me was related to me loss of hope for a genuine relationship with my family. I tried so long that I’ve stop praying about it. I actually feel frustrated even thinking about praying about it because it feels hopeless. God is working on me... thank you for this message

[AlejandrooDaGreat]

I literally can't say I'm trying.. without getting chocked up.

Sermon notes : John 5:1

*God suprises is with what He does and who He uses
*When you fix the symptom and not focus on the root the end is worse than the beginning
* To challenge the system is to risk disappointment
*B.S (Broken System)
*Stop inserting verses that aren’t there to keep explaining yourself

*Religion is a Broken System, Relationship Matters
*5 is a number of Grace✨
*Are you still stuck in what used to be true?
*The real work is to TRUST ❗️
*The reason God showed up for the paralyzed man was to change the entire system
* God :” I see you trying, but can you trust me”?
*Sometimes my trying gets in the way of my trusting 😭
*I can only receive certain things not by trying but by Trusting
* Let the water come to you!
*Jesus is the Living water 🙏🏽
