Bishop here laying on the floor in my bathroom and I know Jesus is here with me! Feeling so low but I will RISE IN HIS STRENGTH!!!!

"Be careful how you treat people in their suffering."

He’s preaching as if there are still thousands of ppl on the building. That is honorable. God bless you Bishop for your integrity for the Lord and His Kingdom.

"No One Escapes Suffering" If you have not suffered, you have not LIVED!

"Don't let corona steal the headline of CHRIST!" - Bishop TD Jakes

We stayed up all night , crying , went out the next day with a smile and no one could tell we were going through a crisis!!!!! Wooooow this hit deep. A Christ that shows up❤

I know what emotional pain and suffering feels like. I come from a broken home and a family that's separated, where in the process i lost my brother, mom, husband and children. My dad and I are left alone and we struggle to get along. As a matter of fact my entire family that's separated each individual still struggle to get along with one another although we no longer live together as a happy family. It can be real heartbreaking for me dealing with it most of the times. I wish someone could just stand in the gap with me and pray for a miracle for my family and I to reunite.

I feel TD Jakes was not alone preaching in an empty church, I feel like God sent thousands of angels to sit in the sanctuary and listen to this message.

Packed church or not, this man here will consistently and passionately preach! Thank you God for blessing us with people like Bishop TD Jakes to help keep us encouraged and remain strong in our faith. 💛

This crisis is showing me exactly who I am. My weakness has been magnified. I am learning to stop fighting my character defects. My defects allowed sin in my life but God is a righteous judge. He knows why I do what I do much more than I know. I am learning to accept what I can’t change and change what it is in my power to change. His strength is made perfect in my weakness.

He is not a fair weather friend.he sticks by you in the storm.This is our king Jesus.oh how he loves us😭

"Somebody said, "It must be hard on you being shut up in the house by yourself." "I said, "I have never been by myself!"Shut me up anywhere you want to shut me up, but you can never leave me by myself." For I heard Him say, "Lo, I am with you always. They'll be with you sometimes, but I'll be with you always." Glory to Jesus! Hallelujah!!!! Jehovah Shammah! Praise the Lord Bishop! Thank you for your obedience to the Holy Spirit!!!! Hallelujah, Hallelujah, Hallelujah!!!

John 16:33 “I have told you these things, so that in me you may have PEACE ☮️ . In this world you WILL have TROUBLE. But take HEART! I have OVERCOME the world.”

Jesus suffered more to save us from our sins we need to glorify him and praise him.

This sermons has gotten me mentally through one of the hardest times in my life🙏🏽God bless everyone

You can't be a champion if you haven't been in a fight!!!!!❤u Bishop!

Who else is so thankful during this time tho? 👏🏾

I always find God again in my suffering and my lonely hours. Thank you 🙏🏽

**" In God's Name We Pray 🙏 that We Need Christ In our Crisis for He Promised that He will Not Forsake us "** **†" We Not Alone during our Suffering because Him On High is Always With us "†**

If you’ve watched this multiple times since it aired 🙌... thank you Bishop. This message picked me out of severe anxiety/ panic... May the almighty continue to reveal himself to you🙏🏾

God please help those 11 mentally challenged those dislike your pure truth from the bishop

This was a great sermon by T.d.jakes. I look at my self everyday, and I do ask God to forgive me for all my sins!!!! I can't speak for other's in this world. I ask for God and Jesus help,cause i am in a deep depression. This is typed by Chastity Lampkin😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭.

"Suffering does not discriminate...nobody escapes it"; however, those who are wise understand that the true escape is psychological and faith based. Thank you for your continued energy and sharing of the word, pastor Jakes.

For a 62 year old he puts a hell of a lot of energy into his sermans he so awsome

I’m not suffering having to stay in my home. I’m soooo grateful I have a comfortable home to stay in during this unbelievable times we’re going through. Thank you God for my protection & safety. 🙏🏾

Grace me to go through it Jesus!! There is a Revelation in Suffering! Stability & Fruitfulness!! In the name of Jesus!!

Yes no matter what you lose in life,you can never lose your relationship with Christ. assurance his continued presence fill you with joy and peace .

I say even at this time I'm away from friends and not going out I am extreemly closer to jesus and reading his word. It makes u realise what is important in life. Praising god right now and he has the power to rebuke the devil in jesus name he has no power but I feel our lord our god is victorious. ❤😔🙏 let's conquer this test.

When he say every knee will bow this is a test he don't care about what color or what you have we need to respect his world his world

I cannot believe how piercing this truth is. I had the same experience with my dad's last year and death. I am so grateful to God for his grace and peace to stand with me all through my pain, disappointment and struggles. I was so distraught that He let my father and mother die young. They served God with absolutely everything they had. But I know now that God was with me the whole time and is still with me now and never let me go without no matter what situation I've been in or will be in. Thank you Bishop for being obedient in your service to God and your preaching to the people. God bless you!

I thank you bishop t.d. jakes, I am feeling very discouraged. I had to walk away from a job of 4 yrs. Being a faithful. Dependable. Hard worker, only to be mistreated, talked bad about & to, low paying, but I just could not fit into the gossip, or the things my boss allowed to take part in & allow, it wounded my spirit, But I had been forced to walk away, not knowing how my responsibilities will be provided for, but trusting god that when one door closes, God opens another, I have grd.kids I may have to take care of & raised, I believe it's my calling to do, my finances not enough to handle but I am trying to believe & keep the faith, remain humble, but not break under pressure, being thankful for what I do have, thank you for letting me suffering don't last always, also don't go unrewarded it's not meant to break me but keep me strong in my race in life.

This Bishop really Love God. He is preaching the same as if he had a crowd. True man of God.Thank Bishop TD Jake's

I can relate to Bishop’s struggle so much. I will never forget when I got hurt working in a steel foundry named Wheland Foundry and how much pain I went through but God healed me and he strengthened me as I rehabilitated myself now look 👀 at me Glory To God. I would have never known that God was a healer until he healed me. Jesus is the Best Thing That Has Ever Happened To Me.

This is a spot-on sermon! I love this guy. =) This is why, as Catholics, we have the crucifix. We all suffer, and it's good to meditate and pray in front of the crucifix: to unite ourselves to Christ in all the many times of suffering - there is a lot of grace from this. Moreover, praying the rosary is very powerful and fruitful, because we can pray the sorrowful mysteries, and specifically meditate on the passion of Christ. Furthermore, the stations of the cross are in every Catholic church because all of what Mr. T.D. Jakes had mentioned in his sermon.

Consistency of His Faithfulness, delivers breakthrough, answers, healing, joy and Peace. Our defense will hold. Your portion to keep on celebrating is within you. God the Father of Our Lord Jesus Christ is doing great exploits for His Glory here on earth. My your comfort come. God bless

Everyone have a blessed day, Happy Passover! 🙏🌿

I need Christ in my crisis 🙏......

😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭 He is God through my suffering, He will see me through because He understands my pain 💔 Bishop I thank God about you tonight, may He continue to use you. Esther from S.A in Free- State. God bless you

What I suffer from today can be you tomorrow! Be mindful of how you treat people when they are suffering!🙌🏾❤Preach Bishop 🙌🏾 👏

Just seeing you preach passionately in an empty auditorium has blessed me deeply. Great Character Bishop. God lead you and bless you. May God heal the world of this pandemic

The devils servants who rules this wicked world will never close god churches for ever .the gate of hell will never prevail against gods word and his churches amen

My GOD! For anyone going through a hardship, suffering mentally, financially, or in any way that is distasteful to God? He’s there with you! Thank you for the sermon Bishop. Thank you.

This hit me so hard on a personal level. And it has nothing to do with corona. Glad i listened. 💯

Our God does not Flee in the Midst of turmoil ' Alpha and Omega ' .....AMEN!💜

Through the storm God is with us, in the fire He is there, whenever adversities comes up against us, remember God is with us. God promised never to leave us nor forsake us, let us all be still inspite of all that's happening right now, and know who our God is, Christ is bigger that our fears.

I’ve encountered God in this season of quarantine and suffering more than ever before. Please bow in this season and just hear from God . It’s been the most challenging and rewarding quarantine . I pray God continues to release to me what I need despite my suffering and what’s going on around me . ❤️🙏🏽

Thank you God for meeting me in every situation of my life.

I believe and trust that God will bring good from these present circumstances. Happy Palm Sunday! Spread the love and let’s honor Jesus by how we face our present challenges by trusting in his love!!!!!

I’m astounded how even among believers, talking more bout heinekenvirus than all the great things He’s done in their lives!

Wow! Old time preaching come back again! Yes Lord!

Please pray with me for a sudden miracle. I need the suffering to end in Jesus name. I was diagnosed with paralysis almost 4 yrs ago, told that I would never walk again by the doctors. I have been diagnosed with other diseases that also try to come against my health. My living conditions are not good. I live in a nursing home where I do not receive good or the proper care AND I am sometimes verbally, emotionally and physically abused. Jesus is still on the THRONE!!! I trust God, Jesus, Holy Spirit and the Blood for my total & complete healing with total restoration, please pray & agree with me. Waiting for the manifestation. Thank You Jehovah Rapha for my miracle, healing and restoration in Jesus name (I) we pray. Thank You Jesus. HALLELUJAH! HALLELUJAH! HALLELUJAH!, GLORY TO GOD!!!!! JESUS IS STILL ALIVE AND ON THE THRONE. ALL THINGS ARE POSSIBLE

Yeeeesss! Thank you for this amazing word Bishop T.D. Jakes! God is with us even in the midst of our suffering. Folk will leave and walk away but I am so glad I serve a God that WILL NEVER leave me nor forsake me!!! Who wouldn’t serve a God like this! 🙏🏾🙌🏾🙏🏾🙌🏾🙏🏾

JESUS!!! Only KING that I've heard of that died for HIS people! ONLY

This man delivers the word like no other.

I have really been through alot in my life. Have had suffering that I never thought would ever happen. People that I love has had to suffer in my suffering. Now that's the hard part about it all. Hurting the ones you love. My mind races 24hrs a day. My point, the sermon where TD Jakes talks about the mind will be attacked, is what brings me back in positivity and understanding. I'm fighting my demons and thank God for all the tools he has given me. Haven't learned how use everything, but all I can do everyday is keep pushing

Thou he slay me, yet will I trust him. Thank you Jesus for your Grace and your mercy.

Thanks Bishop TD Jake's for this beautiful, powerful teaching, I couldn't make it to church so I we to church this morning with the best ever and you are truly a Heaven sent love ❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️ you

Thank God for being the God that he is Hallelujah

All the way from South Africa thank you Bishop for your faithfulness

Thank you Lord 🙌 you've been beaten shamed and so much more you did for me to the world I love Jesus hadn't been for him I might have been dead already to all who don't believe I pray for your personal encounter with him where you won't have a choice but to acknowledge the name of the Lord alpha and omega

Thank you Bishop words well received "A God that is always here with us through our sufferings"

Lord please make a way out of no way, be my shield 🛡️ and buckler, you said ask and ye shall receive. Lord please supply all my needs, with God nothing Is Impossible. Lord I Need To Get Back To Work, I Need To Open My Business, Turn Things Around! In Jesus name Amen 🙏 🛡️🙏

God send me to the Lamentations. I was never moved by that part of God's word, but now the cries in those scriptures surpass mine, and I've become more humble. And realise that Jesus was given all the power in the heavens and on earth. I am praying for protection and provision for Gods children in Africa, Yemen, Afghanistan and that God will add to his family. For God wants no soul to be lost, but wants to save all souls.

Revive us again Oh Lord.!!

He is God and will never change!

Who here is shocked by this most unfortunate event? Our people keep going through unfortunate/abhorrent events. Sending Love, Peace and Health

Thankyou God for letting me listen to Bishop TD Jakes this morning in Jesus name I pray Amen and Amen 2024

Although suffering “GOD IS STILL GOOD!!’ “🙌🏽🙌🏽Hang on! Blessings to you Bishop T.D Jakes

Bishop Jakes, you have no idea how through many years of my life the past 10-12 years.. your obedience to God preaching His message has brought me through!!! Oh thank you Jesus! Thank you Bishop for obeying His voice! God bless you. 🙌

Yes Bishop Jakes, I met Jesus in my suffering at the age of while being horrifically abused by an older sister. Magnify Jesus while being abused by a husband who hated God. I knew More of God while going trough the wilderness. My suffering caused me to want preach Jesus. To stand on God’s word. So I went to seminary, became a worshiper, became ordained to live for Jesus. Now at 72, I can not be separated from my God the Father, Jesus my Redeemer and the Holy Spirit my comforter, my counselor and teacher.

That is the point He will meet us in the suffering... He will keep us from collapsing and show up in a crisis. Hallelujah

If ever there was a time where we needed God.... its right NOW! AMEN! 🙌🏾

I have known Him through tears❤

Here is a man who preaches the whole truth, the whole Word. Thank you Bishop. God bless you!

He surely met me in the furnace, fire, in my unemployment. The God I serve is faithful indeed

I've never been by myself!!! He'll be with me always!! Embrace God that go through it with you!!

When TD jakes talks about the word, he just makes you feel so good . Bless you

A true man of God isn't worried about a empty house or a full house its having the passion to preach the word of God. With a powerful annionting and know that God will still back him up....

A man of character and obedience. Bishop is what he is with or without people because he was chosen. His heart is so compassionate and the word is written in his heart. To all those who talk "the Lord said this,the Lord said that" the Lord told me this, the Lord told me that, but this is the word!!! Bishop TD can preach his enemies in a coffin. No text in his hands because he hiscwell studied and his Integrity is in his heart. Thank you God Bishop doesn't coddle and tell the whole truth. I suffer most and live alone, but God is my best company and keeps me going. Bless you and I pray a tsunami come upon you Bishop TD Jakes.

CHRIST IN ME THE HOPE OF GLORY WHO WOULDN'T SERVE A GOD LIKE THIS💪❤ I FIND FELLOWSHIP IN HIM

Been suffering from cancer for 3 years and God is still good!!!🙌🏾

So needed to hear this today,it's coming up to the day that my child went home to be with the Lord,and it seems like I relive that day as if it just happen,thank You Lord for being with me in my suffering🙏🏾

What a prolific preacher! He never cease to amaze me how he’s able to say all that he says without notes. It’s the anointing, the word on the inside of him and the suffering he has endured that makes the difference.

In time of COVID-19 we all need god now than never before: psalm91 that's my daily prayer, god is with us. Be strong, trust God and dont give up.💫💫💫💫

...and yet in an empty room, you fill it with power and though we cannot be there physically you still move our hearts with the word of God . Thank you so much. Amen 🙏

I started drinking when I was 16. I would drink at parties, but I also started drinking alone because I was unhappy, and I was in a lot of emotional pain all the time. My mom was very aggressive when I was younger, and my brother hated her and so did I. He started hanging out with shady people, he started failing all his classes, he was never home, and my parents fought all the time. I also ran away several times. I was always trying to figure out a reason as to why I was here or what the purpose of life was. So, I started looking at different philosophies, religions, and beliefs. When I was 18 after I was hungover, I got on my knees and I prayed for the first time. I asked if God was real that he would show me he was real because I couldn’t take it anymore. I was crying when I prayed for this. At that moment I felt a presence come over me like a wind. It was barely noticeable, but it was unlike anything in my life I had experienced up until that point. I was surprised when I felt it and I remember saying “what was that?” after that experience I pretty much forgot what happened and kept partying, until my senior year when I got arrested. After my arrest, my parents lost all their trust in me and I was expelled from high school. I was told never to come back. At that time, I felt afraid and hopeless. That’s when I started looking for God, and I prayed that he would reveal himself in my life and that he would give me signs. My prayers began getting answered so consistently that I couldn’t deny that God was doing something. It was mysterious and compelling. I ended up in Church and started reading the bible hours a day. I stopped hanging out with all my other friends because they were continually getting arrested. I was able to forgive my family and myself and to ask to be forgiven. I noticed how at Church people were judgmental and how they formed cliques but were afraid to be around anyone else different from them. It increased my faith because I realized Jesus was not like that and ever since I was young, I saw people as people regardless of who they were. After a while, it’s like I could see God's presence was in my life and then it felt like he wasn’t, and then he was, and then he wasn’t. One day I woke up and felt more depressed than I ever have in my entire life. I felt like I was dying on the inside. That night I prayed, and I said, God, I don’t see my life five years from now I'm going to die Jesus save me Lord, please save me. I was weeping when I said it and when I asked him to save me, I felt a presence inside of me like a heartbeat, and I felt it once like a pulse, and I said Lord please save me and I felt it again even stronger. It was like radiance. When I woke up the next morning, I had transformed everything felt brand new like I was a kid again. All my fears and all my racing thoughts everything was gone. I looked at my hands, and I said this can’t be real, it's impossible. When I looked at myself in the mirror, I saw a different person. I started praying, and the holy spirit became entirely real to me; it was washing over me and inside of me. It was total love and peace, and I heard a voice but not an audible one, it was an inner voice. It said I am with you; I love you, I will never leave you, it’s done it’s finished. That was May 3rd, 2009, and ever since then I’ve followed God, I have seen many things change and many things I know wouldn’t have changed without faith and belief. I know what it’s like to be lost to feel you have no hope. Don’t ever think you’re stuck, or life can’t change because it can. My mom is a Christian now, Its night and day. Some of the things that went away during that period were severe anxiety and my addiction to alcohol. I’ve seen and experienced so many things that are miraculous and seen how God has worked in my life. When we ask God to forgive us for what we’ve done and turn away from our sins and wrongdoings and we believe in Christ's sacrifice everything changes. His word says if we confess with our mouths that Jesus is Lord and believe in our hearts that he died and rose again we will have eternal life but not just life after death but abundant life in the present. Our sins are erased not only past, present, and future but our burdens and fears are lifted also. Our thoughts, our minds, our hearts, our souls are transformed and united with God and we know his spirit lives in us. If you seek, pray, and knock you will know JESUS IS KING!!! HE LIVES! “Come to me all you who are weary and burdened and I will give you rest”

Thank you God for the sufferings! For never leaving me when those who were close could not be found. HALLELUJAH!!!
