I Didn't Know I Was Me - Bishop T.D. Jakes [September 29, 2019] 

My whole life I tried to fit In with friends and family. And it didn't work, but God always told me as a child through my dad that I should write a book. I'm now a first time author and I'm working on my second book as we speak. I never fit in with church crowds but I have following This ministry since 2009 and I have been blessed. Thank you, Abba father for I am a child of yours and I'm a single mother who's an author.

I didn’t know I was me when I was a stripper. I allowed the enemy to hide what god had inside of me, but my god knew me . God is so faithful and loving. Thank you god for not throwing in the towel on your child. 😭🙏🏽

Amen!!! Anybody reading this please pray for my strength!! Depression, loneliness, bitterness! I have been drinking more than I would I like.. The devil in hell, is already defeated in Jesus Name! Please pray!!

I took a solo trip to The Potter’s House. This was the sermon when I visited, and God continues to remind me “I Was Me” years later😇.

“It’s an uncomfortable reality when you have to dumb down how bright you are because you’re around someone so insecure that they can’t handle the brilliancy of your intellectual capacity”

"People that dont even like each-other will get together to hate you" ~ TD Jakes

I’ve never fit in anywhere. At 51 years old, I’ve finally accepted that I have arrived at WHO God predestined me too become and I’m still becoming! I’m an authoress, motivational and creative speaker, and entrepreneur! I’m ready to stop hiding EVERYTHING that God has blessed me with for the world. My God this message was for me. To God be the glory!

"Life doesn't begin when your mom pushes you out , life begins when you find out who you are " Can somebody help me appreciate God for what his doing in my life through bishop TD Jakes 😭😭😭🙌🙌🙌🙌

This is possibly the 1st time I've ever heard a pastor say people need take accountability for the actions that led them into captivity.

“You’re the only one in your family who thinks like you think because I set you apart. I meant for you to be different.” - Bishop T.D.Jakes You’re speaking right to my soul, Bishop! Glory to Almighty God 🙏❤️🙏

A lot of people know scripture but they don't know the voice. -God

Here, July 1st 2023 watching this sermon again! This one is a true classic! Thank you, Bishop for being such a great vessel.

"The people who love you, don't love what you got and the people who love what you got, don't love you..." Thank you Lord

“Your feelings will deceive you. You can’t trust how you feel.” “Feelings are a response to what happened not to what’s about to happen” "Everything in your past was getting you ready for everything you’re about to do in your life. "Losing is EASY because all you have to do is Give Up! It’s the WINNING in life that’s hard" “LIFE BEGINS WHEN YOU FIND OUT WHO YOU ARE 🙌🏾”...~ TD Jakes "I Didn't Know I Was ME" 9/29/19

I remember being married and things got twisted. I found myself saying, "you forgot who I am." God whispered to me, " No, you forgot who you were."

Life begins when you find out who you are. This is a life changing punchline.

This sermon touched me in ways I can’t even explain. It’s my prayer that who ever listens to this, their lives be transformed.

Am I the only one who skips back to get the word! Again again & again!🙌🏾

“Life begins when you find out who you are” Bishop Jakes

"He doesn't use your enemies because they're stronger than you. He uses them to teach." 🔥

It’s ok to praise Him for expectations, but also praise Him just for being GOD... without miracles I’ll still praise you Lord.

"im trusting God for things words cant articulate"

Before I was born, He set me apart. I'm perfectly peculiar. I can't fit in! Lord, I thank you!

"The people that love you, don't love what you got" & " The people who love what you got, don't love you" 💯🙆🏾‍♂️🗣

"An unstable environment makes you activate your core strength!" Thank You Bishop!

God has a way of disrupting my life because he called ME

I met you in the absence of me, I met you to fill the void of not knowing I was ME amen

Yesterday I was sitting in my van, in the midst of deep mourning about my failed 💔 marriage. I prayed and asked The Almighty to send me a clear sign about what I am supposed to be doing. A few minutes later a Mourning Dove 🕊 showed up and tried to come in the window and when it couldn't get in, it just stood on the hood and stared at me. This morning I'm not in mourning 😊. Thank Yous for still showing signs 🙏🏾 and making wonders 🎉

In prison is where I found my purpose. There was definitely purpose in the pain.

4 hours to Hear this Because my finger is still hitting rewind and it's the 3rd time through❤❤❤

"How can you pick me and want me to be stupid?" AAAAHHHHHHH!!!! I am literally sitting at my desk, hiding my wheat in the winepress as I type this! Thank you, Father God, for always meeting me and bringing this message to me this morning. -Amen #GRATEFUL

I did all those things in my past because I DIDNT KNOW I WAS ME…god I thank you for your glory. It is you that kept me.

- [ ] OH L0rd, G0d almighty? I magnify y0ur name. Yaweh I give you all the glory f0r my life!! F0rgive my sins and my un c0nfessed sins L0d! L0d I want more of you and less 0f me!

L0rd I pray f0r th0se wh0 d0n't kn0w y0u in a intimate way that they will humble themselves and c0me t0 kn0w y0u on bending knee asking for their forgiveness, Father I bind the spirit of pride! I cut it 0ff at the head and send it back to the pit 0f he'll in which it has come from! I release l0ve,, kindness, patience, humility in the name of Jesus! I f0llowed my heart and I am glad I did, I lost my wife 2 years ago due to the pandemic and I was ab0ut giving up, knowing G0d has brought me this far was f0r a purp0se and I kept on l00king on to him, My destiny helper was sent t0 me the year my wife died, The moment I was about giving up, I was introduced t0 a business by a man I met in a seminar I went t0 in Florida.

My mail is in my ab0ut 0r bio if y0u wish to write me, I can tell you what this business is all ab0ut 0r y0u can reach him directly.

"I meant for you to be different" I receive that.

God didn’t bring me this far to leave me🙌🏾

I was down and out, and the words that I received from Td Jakes lifted me up. It came from God gave me hope gave me strength, gave me the power not to quit. I thank Jesus every single day. I’m grateful for my life. I’m grateful for Jesus Jesus is the reason, the word is powerful the word gives life! 🙏🏽

I love this message... It speaks to me. I have been rejected my family and friends. My mom died. My Dad died..😭😭😢😢 but this shows me that I am chosen by God to do extraordinary works for The glory of God!!!!!

This is a seasons where you need to 'get down" and let 'God show up and show out. 2020 was not the best, but if you are reading this, you are blessed and alive. You have so much more to accomplish. This is our season

There's no reason why we should worry,God knew us before we were born,Amen

I love you, TD Jakes For I know God sent you to be a part of my journey thank you for never giving up on me 😘😘😘

Bishop Jakes sent me hear after listening to his sermon, "Discover". I used to buy tapes and CDs when I was in the military. Now I'm grateful that I can just save sermons in my RU-vid library. I thank God for technology.

If this isn’t right on time...I got hired for a job that’s trying to convince me I’m not capable of doing a job I went to school and passed several tests for ...met a guy that wanted me to believe I needed him when he has nothing to offer me...forgot I was me

I feel abandoned and rejected by so many!! I thank God He has not forgotten about me! He's with me and I will see my situation change!!

For years I wrote poetry, friends told me it was great. But, God has shown me that at 67 I am going to use My ability to glorify hlm, in a book that he gave me the Talent To write. I PRAISE HIS NAME AND HIS FAITHFULNESS, FOR NEVER GIVING UP ON ME.

I met you in the absence of me, I met you to fill the void of not knowing I was ME 🙌🏼

Pastor got on the army fatigue tie. He came to fight and break barriers on this day.

Of all the sermons I’ve heard of the years. I feel like I’ve been waiting 40 years for this message right here. Broken. I don’t know where God is leading but I want to go.

I watched the live when it aired. Today I’m watching again.

I’ve listened to hundred’s of BIshop T.D. Jake’s videos and I always feel uplifted, confirmed, inspired, determined, lit-up, awakened, motivated, liberated, in love, humbled, loved, assured, lovingly admonished, comforted, healed, and with such clarity. This preaching has to be one my top 5 all time favourites (it’s hard to pick a favourite). I am so thankful to G-d for Bishop T. D. Jake’s.

I've been told I was nothing my entire life. I was all my mistakes. I never fit in with no one. No friends, no family. I have always been an outcast the majority of my life. the choices I've made, the pain I have been through. I didn't know I was me. My God 🙏 thank you Lord for allowing me to hear this message. I didn't know I was me. 💙 Thank you Holy Ghost for speaking to me through this. I'm learning how to activate God's word in my life and to live according to his word. I am learning me..I know that I know God has called me. Thank you Jesus and God bless you Sir Bishop Jakes

“ You can not trust how you feel” it’s your response to what happened not what’s about to happen ! I’m praising God because I have an expectation.

This is my season,God created me for a reason and i will do great things in my life

Bishop this word is for me. I am afraid. All the glimpses of who I am is frightening. My mind gets blown and I hide in the wine press. I've grown accustom to the beatings that I accept it as my place. But my God I know that's a lie. The angels have spoken. Have your way Lord. I am your Warrior!!!!! Its my time to show up as me. Glory to God.

I thought I needed you because I didn't know I was Me..wow! I have a dream still, when others have stopped dreaming. I met you in the absence of me... Dear God!!!

When God told me I will be a mighty mighty prophet I didn't believe it!!!! But here I am now traveling The world and preaching the gospel!!!!! I love you Jesus Christ 💗💗💗💓🧡🧡💙❣️💕👑💜😘😘❤️❤️😍🥰♥️💞💞💞💜💜😊😍😍🥰💕

Of all of the TD Jake's sermons this one I have repeated over and over. There are so many messages in this sermon you can't even pin point them all. All my life I've been different, even the different one in my family. But it was because "I didn't know, I was me"!

This is one of the best sermons I have ever heard

‘He didn’t know he was the guy he was asking God to send’😩 lets all go home! 🙏 Amen

Tried to fit in everywhere… HS clicks, pledged a fraternity, did everything I was good at because it was easy… “I didn’t know I was me” 🙏🏽 Thank you Bishop

I needed this 8.13.23.....God's word is always on time, extremely relevant and blessing. Thank you!

"How can you pick me then want me to be stupid." EXACTLY BISHOP!!!!!!!

I affirmly believe God sent me here, because I have been struggling with my family, friends, people and etc... has not been accepting me and felt outcasted and talked about as well...

"We build evidence to dissuade us from moving forward!" That was everything!

September 2023. Still listing Bishop. God is Great

"People who don't even like each other, will get together to hate you"! INTERESTING!!!!!! PREACH BISHOP!!!!!!

I’m a dental assistant and a janitor but before God formed me he knew I would spread my testimony. My job only matters to people that see me working. But the warrior God made me to be without the testimony! The Lord spared my life twice and I’m appreciative to enjoy this opportunity 😁

I cried and cried and cried realising that I didn't know I was me but God knew and why I recognized His voice when He called me. Hallelujah! Thank you Bishop.

It is May 12,2023 I thank the Most High for placing this message on your heart and even if it's three years later today . The deliverance make so much sense to me I too went looking for the Most High three years ago. Oh what great miracles signs and wonders came into my path. Then I fell off just a little but after watching this it has reminded me and called me to get back on track " no one said this journey would be easy "!!!!!!!

From the bottom of my heart I want to thank you for delivering the Word Of God in such a way that you speak to my heart directly, each and every time I hear your sermons and today was, without a doubt no exception I feel a shift and I grow more every time I hear you. I cannot seem to go a day without hearing you deliver the Word as only you can. I feel truly blessed to have found your ministry. My prayers are for the longevity of you and all that surrounds you in your works of the Lord. You are a hero to me and you are appreciated beyond words. May God bless all that you touch, your Family and ministry.

One of my favorite messages from Bishop Jakes. My husband and I have listened to it 5 times and every time we've learned something new. Such a powerful message🙏🏾🙏🏾

My ex assaulted me and stole my dog. Police nobody helped me! But GOD got me! I receive this message in Jesus name! My strength is in him! This has allowed me to look at life and my future diffently! Thank you Bishop for this message 🙏 🙌 ❤️

I pray for those who think that they can not recover from PTSD depression anxiety bipolar i pray that they open their eyes and there hearts father and allow you to step in and help them as you have helped me loving in the Lord

I will not trust the feeling of brokenness in Jesus name.

gideon was shocked to find out that he was the guy he's been praying to God to send.

13:01 God was here before anything else 14:00 God had the answer before the question 17:33 We had fellowship with God before we came here 20:00 I meant for you to be different 22:00 You know scripture but, I know the voice 26:00 When he called me

This is the one!!! Life changing revelation! This sermon still gives me chills no matter how many times I’ve watched it.

My God my God I didn't know I was me 😭💔😭 I let people use me but no more 😭

I haven’t had a word that ministered to me so personally in a very long time. God will show up when you least expect it. 🙌🏾 Much needed!

Amen The people that Love Me, Don't love what I got,And the people who love what you got don't Love You Amen 💯💟💟💟

He manages all the artifacts on the stage of my life!🙌🏾

Wherever I go I don't fit in with nobody..not even the family that raised me they never understood me..I feel different because the way I think. I think out of the box... THANK YOU GOD FOR THIS MESSAGE 🙏 🙌 ❤️ 💖 💓 💕 🙏 I CAME FROM ETERNITY..

I see and hear why the devil didn't want me to hear this message. This year l turned 60 and l felt like l am my greatest failure and l have done nothing amazing but run around in circles looking for myself. This message is my confirmation that God has great plans for me and l didn't know that l was Linda Glover. I am me and l am free! Amen

"Grace can put blinders on your eyes. I saw you but couldn't see me." Wow.

"I didn't know I was me" this hits home. I've always felt like there was more for me even when my situations felt like otherwise. It's my Season HalleluYAH!!

Amen! What GOD started in my life, HE WILL FINISH! In JESUS name, Amen!

God I thank you for this message. I prayed for a sign this morning in tears at the water. I thank you for the reset, restore and refinement. For all of you in transition, hang in there. Be patient with your process. God is with you the entire journey. Remember who you are💙💙‼️

God, thanks for remembering me, when i forgot who I was and who we were.

This sermon changed my whole walk with Christ. Open my eyes and made me long for more. I thank God the opportunity to hear this. I didn’t know I was me.

I was streaming a live service this morning with Pastor Toure Roberts and he preached about finding your identity. I really struggled with my identity and my purpose in my life. I’ve always felt like an outcast as if I didn’t belong with family and friends. Pastor Toure mentioned this sermon, so here I am.

What a beautiful prayer. "There is no other attraction." "You are the centerpiece." "I'll praise you now, you can do it later." God bless Pastor TDJakes.

I didn’t know I was me. 🙏🏾❤️And I can’t wait to meet the version of me that heaven knows.Amen thank you bishop for your obedience delivering such a prophetic word 🙌🏾

This sermon was preached 4 years ago, but it applies to my life today. It's the first time I'm hearing it and I thank the Holy Spirit for allowing me to listen to it. God really loves me. Thank you Bishop for being obedient to the Holy Spirit. I needed this word

I watch this over and over again just to hear the statement " I did not know I was ME"

I could tell he wasn't feeling well but that didn't stop him, thank you for the word sir

Just turned 65 and I didn’t know I was me until I received this message. Praise God

TJ I am still here...... because of the Almighty king Jesus..........I got to prayers him......... because he saved my life.................I prayer God 7 days of week........in the blood of Christ Jesus............😍🤩🥰💯👀🙏

This was my word! I know it. Was in Dallas from out of state this weekend with plans to attend today’s service. I was awaken in the middle of the night by another guest at the hotel banging on a door down the hall. I immediately knew that there was a word for me today as for the past few days, there were no disturbances at the hotel and I slept well. Today, I overslept but watched online and still received the word that was for me.

This message was definitely meant for me & what’s going on in my life right now at 45 years old! I had something happen many years ago that I can’t explain. I was doing my internship for physical therapist assistant degree at a local hospital & did physical therapy on the patient 2 times on 2 different days & the last time I did physical therapy & talked about where patient was going to be released. After I left I went home & told my neighbors son that I had this feeling from my head to my toes that my patient was going to die & the next day when I went in the physical therapist told me my patient had passed away & I told her that I told my neighbors son that I had a feeling he was going to die. I didn’t know then that God gave me a gift that he doesn’t give everybody & that’s why he made me different to stand out instead of blending in with the rest!!

“I was drawn to anything that had my destiny in it!” Powerful

Amen thank you sir Bishop T.J. jakes blessing of God is on you my name is Emmanuel from Nigeria
