But what if the breakthrough you're praying for is on the other side of the thing you've been avoiding?

More from Elevation with Steven Furtick
It's one thing to receive something good from God. It's another thing to learn how to hold onto it when life gets hard. The enemy’s attack doesn’t get to take away the confidence, peace, or purpose God has given you. When you're feeling overwhelmed, remember: The strength to hold on comes from knowing Who's holding on to you.

Have you been waiting a long time for something that still hasn't happened yet? This message from Pastor Stephen Chandler will remind you that God hasn’t forgotten about you, even if you haven’t seen the progress you hoped for yet.

This is a message for someone ready to give up. In Philippians, the Apostle Paul shows us what’s on the other side of pain when we persevere with Christ. And here’s the good news: You don’t have to be afraid anymore.If you’ve just made a decision for Christ, please respond HERE: http://ele.vc/tIepfrScripture References:Philippians 1, verses 12-14 – Paul's chains advance the gospel, emboldening others.2 Corinthians 5, verse 10 – All must appear before Christ's judgment seat.
What if the thing you've been worrying about could become the thing you pray about? Trusting God doesn't mean you'll never feel afraid, it means you don't have to carry your fear by yourself. The next time your mind starts rehearsing everything that could go wrong, turn the worry into a prayer and remind yourself: You have a Father who knows what you need.

What do you do when you keep showing up, but nothing seems to be changing? Just because progress doesn’t look like you expected doesn’t mean it’s not happening. If you’re frustrated with where you are or focused on where you thought you’d be by now, discover how God can give you the strength to keep going, make adjustments, and trust Him with your next step.If you’ve just made a decision for Christ, please respond HERE: http://ele.vc/tIepfrScripture References: Joshua 6, verses 1-16, 20 – Israel marches around Jericho for seven days
