T. D. Jakes | – How to Push Past the Pain of Abandonment – Bishop T.D. Jakes


We live in an age that is so focused on being Jesus-adjacent that we’ve abandoned Jesus, because one of the biggest tragedies of our modern times is to celebrate Christ without realizing that He isn’t even there. And when it doesn’t work out, we blame the very God who is working in us and through us. You may have forgotten who you are, but it’s time to turn around and get back to what’s valuable, to increase in wisdom and stature, to stop chasing that which will bring us no joy, and to let God grow our destiny from its young beginnings into a legend that spans generations!

Message: “The Turning Point!”
Scripture: Luke 2:41-50 (NIV)

  1. When people can't keep using you
    they sometimes left you alone.
    and the only how they want to be in
    your life if they can control you.
    but Bishop T.D Jakes you did have
    a man of God preaches a message
    at your church one time. and his topic was i and not going down without a fight. yes they can try to
    get me down in anyway they can't
    but i am not going down without a fight. it times for some people stop
    hating on others for what is not there. go through your own pain
    and rejection. and stop going around
    thinking is you are lone going through some things painful and hard time. we living in a time when everyone one is going through something even the richest person.
    money can't buy peace and love and happyness yes we all needs it but the hurt and pain we go through in life we all need Jesus to heal our broken heart. some of you sinners
    be running to long from God and some of us Christian stills ain't fully
    save yet. we been in church for years now and stills walking the wrong road. the question is when will we stop playing church.
    hear we go it's seems like we been in coming out of a pandemics and now it's seems like we going back
    in it again. God says if my people
    who are call by my name shall
    humble themselves and pray then I'll
    hear from heaven and heal their land.
    thank you Bishop for allowing being a blessing to my soul.

  2. Like being abandoned by your family
    Your church
    Your country

    Having only a few pennies to seek a prayer
    Only to never be seen..

    Yeah … homeless know all to well what that is like!

    Praise God Jesus understands where others only talk but the walk Lord the long long walk!

    He that is in me has been my only drink.

  3. Using what you have, no need going outside to get what you already have; especially when you have not given the privilege to show favor to the other ONE; fairly. Call one call the other. We all want to be loved, in front; not behind the scenes. "A MAN WHO FIND…" HE SHOULD BE LOOKING NOT ALWAYS WAITING. TALK, EXCUSES NO FULFILLING PROMISES. THAT IS AN OFFENSE.
