I was born a Muslim in Iraq. I was worried and depressed, sitting and looking at the Tigris River in my city.Jesus' face appeared to me in the water and told me. "Son, you're not alone" And now I'm a Christian, and I pray every day at the edge of the river.Thank you Jesus for this grace. I'm not alone right now. Jesus is with me.✝🙏💖💖🙏🙏
Hey brother,welcome to the Christian family.Just thought to add that you do not need to go to the river everyday to pray,Jesus left us the Holy Spirit who is present with us everywhere you go and therefore you can pray to the father in Jesus name at anytime and anywhere and He will still answer 😊.May the good Lord bless your walk with Him.
Good for you. Keep on keeping on in the heavenly race. It's not an easy road but God's grace is sufficient for us. God bless you 🙏
@afia simpande, mean that you can pray also in spirit, though getting a place to meet with God is a nice thing.
Happy for you, bro. May Lord Jesus bless you more
Praise God...welcome to the family Bro!
Whoever's LISTENING this, I pray that whatever your going through gets better and whatever your struggling with or worrying about is going to be fine and that everyone has a fantastic day! Amen
Thank you for that blessing!!🌻
Amen 🙌🙏❤️
AMEN!❤GOD BLESS YOU!🙏
Amen
❤❤❤❤
Help my daughter God,help my daughter God amen
I was paralyzed in bed last year and I heard Jesus say out loud to me - If you believe in me get up and walk💜🕊💜 I got up and not only walked but went for a walk outside. Praise God!!!!! GOD IS ALWAYS WORKING!!!! ✌💜🕊🙏
❤
Waaaoh... The God who heal you ......may he also heal my daughter In Jesus Name.Amen
Second Hillsong testimony
AMEN!❤️🙏God Bless You!!❤️🙏
I have a genuine question that needs to be answered. If Jesus is my father then why does he makes me beg him for the smallest of things in life and still doesn't provide. What father will treat his son like a beggar on the street. I want to love Jesus but I don't think he cares.
You control you! Live your life and be joyful. Don't let anything steal your joy... Amen🙏🏽
Beautifully said!
God bless everyone
Well people steal your joy everyday. Behind your back for their benefit and then let other people talk them into being even worse than they are. So don't waste your time listen and figure it out on your own and with God
Amen 🙏✝️
I don'tagree, no one has to deal with anyone difficult, period
The crow can't go where the eagle can go ❤
Amen
Yeah it can, birds can fly anywhere they want
Another message that I needed to hear. I am dealing with difficult people at work and in my family. I just hope that I am not a difficult person that someone is trying to avoid. God knows I do my best to do right by people. This world is hard enough without people purposely making our lives uncomfortable. I give it all over to God!
Amen. Continued character growth will ALWAYS lead good spirits to you for TRYING. You will repel negative people. Let God Almighty be your light. 🙏🏽
KZhead: Bishop TD Jakes “ Let Them Go”.
The fact you’re even here like me and trying to figure it out shows you have lots of crows around you like I do. Time for me to let go and allowing people to get under my skin bc it’s simple - they are plain jealous of the blessings god has given me. It hurts so bad that immediate family doesn’t celebrate with me but that ok. I need to do the work and keep flying like God intended me to. Thank you, you’ve always helped me when I’m stuck and second guess myself 🙏🏼
Thank you. I needed to read this. May the Lord cover you and your family in his Blood.@@Raj-dk6sm
Lord I wish I could play this over the intercom at work Walmart
Ahhh lol lol 😂 but we must pray for them lol
Is that where all the crows are?
Lord give my mind peace. I have so much on my mind. I barely sleep. 2-3 hours here and there. Haven’t had a full nights rest in idk when🥹 I pray constantly and I know you here my prayers. I believe that Jesus Christ is my lord and savior. Sometimes I can’t pray because I don’t know what to say but I know you know the situation😢 I’m thankful for all you have done and will continue to do.
Yesss girl trust me I know the feeling !!! I been there before allowing things that don't matter to get the best of me now I just praise God spend time with him and enjoy my life and take care of my business
Talk to Jesus tell him to help you in any situation you may be in Amen.praise the Lord as well..🙏🏾🙌🏾🌞.

Lord give me courage to overcome difficulties ❤❤
In the name of Jesus…Amen.
I truly believe that god loves me unconditionally. Lord please keep me from harm
God does love you! If you love Him you will deny yourself and follow Him.
Last evening I was stopped by a mugger. A difficult person indeed ! I smiled, remembering Joel's Lucid Advice. And he also smiled ! And then took my wallet :( Hallelujaaaaah, anyway !
I am encouraged . Lord help me to deal with difficult people I encounter in life.
GOD bless you Joel Osteen. 😇🕊️

Hey beautiful

Pigeons and crows flock together. Eagles fly alone 🦅 Thank you, Joel Osteen. I deal with crows and pigeons everyday who are always trying to steal my joy and peace with their lies. This sermon helped remind me of who I am in Christ and to soar above all the disrespect and abuse. To everyone dealing with difficult and disrespectful people, keep your head up and stay confident. God's fighting our battles. God bless you all 🙏
Persecution my Friend.....But Rest in the FAITH.....IT IS FINISHED......
Thank you!Fasil
Please pray for me and my children. Prayers are all we truly NEED. Jesus I still trust in you and will keep my faith even though it is so very difficult. I’m constantly faced with financial hardships and can barely support my children. I’m a single mom. With two children on the spectrum. I’m overwhelmed at times. My boys require a lot from me. I lost my job for declining the vaccine. I declined because I suffer from heart disease. I had a massive heart attack a year and a half ago and I also have lupus. Since losing my job I’ve been struggling to support my children and myself. I’m now waitressing and I’m grateful but I’m not making nearly enough. JESUS HELP me. I’m CRYING OUT TO YOU. I’m tired of struggling. Struggling to buy groceries. Struggling to pay rent. It hasn’t been easy. Why me Lord? But I know God doesn’t give you more than you can handle. I know all things are possible through Jesus. I WILL KEEP FAITH. No matter how hard life gets. FAITH OVER FEAR!
I pray things work out in your favor 🙏🙏🙏
May your faith made you whole. Your struggling shall turn to testimonies soon in Jesus name amen
I hope your situation has gotten better and it will. I just wanted to let you know that there are food banks in churches that you can go to certain days of the week and they will provide decent groceries and amount based on family size. This will help you at least with food and maybe they can help with more. I've gotten food from these places which is a blessing with no shame as my priority is to feed my family. I've also contributed when back on my feet. Be blessed!
I pray that God sends you so much abundance and freedom so that you may rest and have peace, so you can spend time with your family ! Jesus is our vindicator ! Keep the faith! Your time is coming.
Thank you God for gifting us with this amazing message.
Hey beautiful
AMEN GOD BLESS YOU!!!!!!❤️🙏❤️🙏❤🙏❤️🙏

Thank you. My work environment is ran by a difficult individual. This was what I needed to hear…a few times!
Sometimes we need to pray about whether it's time to leave the job...,🌻💫a new job might be waiting. God wants us at peace

Lord help me I'm yet to testify and I have been praying for years. Lord all I do is pray and loads of bad things been happening to me. I recently had a miscarriage and I'm no longer with my partner. We wasn't even together like that. Also my enemies are spiritually attacking me. They want to see me broke, alone and in prison. I'm not doing anything wrong I'm just living my life and minding my own business. Lord is my witness he sees everything I do so Lord please vouch for me. In the name of jesus Lord please change things. Please don't let my enemies win. I just want them to live there lifes and keep my name out of there mouths. I don't want my enemies to plan my future because I know I know exactly what they want for my future. My enemies want me to be childless and no life. They want me to have a junkie life. Lord please show them who is more powerful 🙏 amen
Please God find my soul mate good person free from sin thank you God amen 😊
God in heaven is apart of everyone and thing. God in heaven is in charge and his ways are the way to live . Evil never has victory and may they face the law even in brainwashing to destroy others. In Jesus Christ mighty name Amen
Watching your sermons everyday from Africa and getting blessed and learning alot too. God bless you and your Ministry.
You overcome evil with good. Amen
They may have lots of titles for you but Joel Osteen you are the goat in preaching. You know how to bring a negative message calmly and positive. 🙌 Keep going amen
Father! I want to imitate you I’m full of gratitude that you choose me today grant me the wisdom to soar like a eagle and fulfill my purpose. In Jesus name Amen
This message is definitely for me. I have been going through this lately. God is surely using you to speak to me and many of us. Thank you, Lord!
The Lord shall fight for me, and I shall hold my peace. 🕊 Exodus 14:14 Amen 🙏 🕊✝️

When coming across such calibers be calm knowing that God is watching you and he instills strength in you.
Last night 🌃 I had a dream that I have been given the scholarship and gone to school 🏫 and with different students from different walks of life and that is my prayer 🙏,Lord please may my dream come true
May God continue to bless you and your family Pastor Osteen. Yor messages are so inspirational, you have given me hope when I thought all was lost. I am from Trinidad & Tobago, I listen to you on KZhead every day, and laugh at all your jokes. I have been meaning to send you these two jokes that I find really funny! I hope they are fit for the pulpit. The first one is: Two guys were sitting at a bar having a conversation, one said to the other ( my wife drives me to drink), the other one replied, you are lucky, I have to walk (lol). The second joke is: a couple was arguing about their teenage daughter, the husband said to the wife (she's not my daughter) the wife replied, yes, she is, the husband said I'm sure of it, the wife said, I will prove to you that she is your daughter, she had a DNA test done, and to her surprise, it can back negative, the wife looked confused, and said, I was sure she's your daughter, the husband said I told you she wasn't, ( remember when she was born and I was in the hospital with you when she pooped, you told me to change the baby? Well I did (lol).
Lol 😂😂😂😂 these jokes are absolutely hilarious!! Hopefully Joel will use them. His message on difficult people is very timely and so are these jokes!!😂 Love in Christ!!
Thank you Pastor Joel, I needed to hear this.
I am very much encouraged to know christ is with me. Thanks.
AMEN!!❤🙏GOD BLESS YOU!!❤🙏
Thank you Lord for a great message, I am putting on the oil of joy, I choose to be an eagle and rise above it all. 👏
I had a dream last night about trash bags being handed to me to manage taking them to the dumpsters. They were all bagged in white. I'm constantly hearing a Dominic theatre stage which has invaded my mind and is intensely painful 24/7. I believe God has showed me they are delivering trash to my thoughts and I'm totally preoccupied , trying to manage despising bags and bags of it. Thank you Father for rescuing me from this 24/7 nightmare. Amen
All glory to God! He is indeed my very present help in times of trouble,He keeps fighting our battles; we only have to be still and stay in peace! Exodus 14:14 in Jesus name, Amen!❤
AMEN!!! THIS was right on time!!!
I would say it takes no energy to start angriness but it takes all energy to sustain it.
Yes it does!
Amen thank you Jesus God Almighty love you all in Jesus name.
Joel Osteen never lied !! People will do whatver and say whatever just to gwt under your skin but once you master ignkring them and prating for them instead I noticed I been more focused on my own personsl life
"If it is not between u and ur destiny then its a distraction"👍
Praise God hallelujah 🙌🏽
Everyday is a blessing and this message is right on time. God Bless us all. AMEN
Hey danyiel
AMEN!❤GOD BLESS YOU!❤❤️🙏😊
Thank you Joel for your encouraging words. I listen to you all the time. You have given me the courage to rise up, and face what is in front of me. Thank you for all you do from our Lord in heaven. Amen!
Thank you Joel🙏. I needed to hear this. Seems like nice people always get hurt. But God sees everything. He is our vindicator. We should only focus on our progress towards our goals. We can't control difficult people, but we can control our response.
Perfect encouraging message, I absolutely love it. Thank you my beautiful pastor Joel 😊🤗😘😍💕💕💕
Amen 🙏 ❤🙏 I’m an Eagle 🦅 “I’m putting the oil of joy” Experiencing this just yesterday “dealing with difficult people”. This morning as I looked at my phone and went to KZhead Joel Osteen message was the first thing I saw which brought me here with captioned “Dealing With Difficult People” God has a very good sense of humor, He always does!!!
I was literally shaking with anger a few minutes ago from a verbal altercation with a colleague that is not even a believer of Christ. I looked for a sermon on dealing with difficult co workers and I then came across this one.... Happy to say The Lord Jesus diffused my anger😅
This is not the pastor you want to hear
The enemy will keep setting us up with altercations. We are wrapping it up, Christ is going to take us home. We are so near to the rapture! Christ be with you always!
Amen in Jesus name, thank you pastor Joel Osteen,I am blessed this morning.
I'm the good kind of jealous of you Joel. Wish I could live as good as you in Jesus Christ my friend
Thank you LORD for all the graces, aches & pains of life, everything that ive'd been through but came out victorious by GOD's mercy & love❤. It made me a stronger person to weather out whatever comes. You:ve been my SAVIOUR PROTECTOR & GUIDING LIGHT in my life. I offer my life to you. Thank you PRAISE YOU LORD🙏
Yes this is my current situation with the guy that claims to be my boyfriend but I get nothing but hate from him. I'm praying everyday I have the means to leave him. Please keep me in your prayers thank you. Amen 🙏🏽
If you leave him you will have the means. You will be surprised that God will give you what you need. He is not changing and years keep going by that you can use for your destiny. If he at least cared about you he wouldn't be mean to you and if you have children don't let them be brought up in an unhealthy environment. Be blessed
@@margieval9938 so true I left my husband and every door I knocked on open! I know divorce wasn’t pleasing in Gods eyes but I had to believe God saw how he was treating me. He didn’t let me lack not one thing when I left.
@@kimberlymay9497 I'm really happy for you and to hear that you left him. He was keeping you from your blessed potential. Divorce is necessary in cases and the Lord our father knows it. We are his children and as any parent who loves their children want to see them well. God Bless!
Thank you Lord Jesus for always being there for me Amen Praised Lord Jesus
I feel like I needed to hear this I’m not a church goer and I am not even religious I needed this thanks Joel
Amen. This message is for all people facing challenges for difficult people, but when you receive Jesus as your Lord & Saviour you then have authority by God our Father to take control of the situation because you have eternal authority over their darkness in your life. It's different. Get saved get the salvation information from Joel. God Bless you.✨💫 For Eternity!!!
@@rossana7469Very well said Ty ❤
Amen glad we are in agreement. 🙂 It's challenging being saved and protecting our peace in Christ!!! I can't imagine being unsaved in this season of the world dealing with the madness. They have no advocate!!!😦
God, protect me and favor me in a toxic and political work environment. Lies and manipulation are being done against me at my work. Please, pray I get a better job, where I can grow in every area of my life, and it's not a toxic, lies, and manipulating environment. Amen
Never give up Ben Christ is on the way. Christ is with you now!
Good Morning Everyone, Happy Month of June. Thank You that Sermon. I needed it. Don't let Nobody take Your Joy😊. Have a "Bless" day. 🙏
God bless all those who fought for the freedom of Amen
Jesus did answer his critics. He listened to his critics. And he said to make peace with your brother before you go to court, not hire a lawyer; That is, settle it. On the other hand, he did say do not cast your pearls before swine Calling someone swine is odd, coming from Jesus. He said call no one fool. Say Raca (worthless) of no man or you will pay to the last penny. Versus making peace, though, he said he did not come to bring peace, but a sword. He said love your enemies. That was so hard for me for so long but I am so sorry I couldn't before. God has the power and an army of anger to protect us, but rising higher is not always what we think it is; Jesus died for us.
Excited to hear Joel's suggestions., I'm mentally learning how to turn the other cheek.
Turning the other cheek blessing our enemies loving them is a lifetime lesson & journey. Praise God for Jesus!!!
This is something I needed to hear, and work on.
Pastor Joel is right it makes you tired and weak stressing over what people say about you. It drains you when people say mean things. I need to stop letting the negative words and comments get to me. Need to ignore the crows and chickens Its going to be hard. Need to stay in peace and trust in GOD. THANK YOU SO MUCH PASTOR JOEL
I will soar higher like the eagle and leave those pesky crows and chickens far behind. Amen!
Jesus I love you man. Can't wait to see you. Mr. X
He makes my day ..love his words...❤
Thank you so much sir Joel Osteen, this message is really for me exactly today ❤️💞

Thank You Pastor Joel , God sent this message for me through You .
I stand with my lord and act like an eagle amen i Master love. Amen
What beautiful and encouraging word of God. Thank you man of God for reminding me to leave the battle to the Lord. Please pray for me, I have the mist difficult, toxic, rude, racist and à bully boss. I pray that God will give the grace to be an Eagle and leave the battle to Him. The Lord will fight my battle with this sickening boss. He will not stand in between me and my destiny in Jesus name. As long as I live, I leave this battle to the Lord, the Lord will fight for. I will stay still and know that Hé is Gid who fights our battle. I am praying for miracle for the situation. In the might Name of Lord and saviour Jesus Christ. This boss is defeated. Amen
Praise Jah yea you was my Abigail from this day forth I will soar like an eagle. Thank you for this timely message

I love you all in Jesus name Amen.
Im an OTR truck driver. My coworker/ friend has been very difficult to deal with at times. He does and says very mean and demeaning things to me. And i would las out. But lately im remembering when i heard Gods voice years back telling me to be at peace. Ive been able to block his nonsense out and perform my duties. I know God is with me. I acknowledge and thank HIM every day more than a few times a day. Im becoming mych more peaceful and my anxiety and anger has calmed down. Hearing this sermon has opened up a new light. Thank you Father God for the Messenger. ❤❤❤❤
Amen, I receive it with faith👏👏👏
I love you lord Jesus 💕

God, thank you for revealing my own anger to me and guiding me with wisdom
He is the Best Minister on this planet!!!!!
This specific Joel speech helps so much with difficult people, I listen to it all the time 🙏
Always take the high road. You will mount up like wings of eagles. Isaiah. Go up higher. Run your race with purpose. Stay in peace and let God take care of it. God is your vindicator. God has anointed us with the oil of joy. Let it go. Stay in peace. Don't let their issues affect you. Don't take their disrespect, rudeness, bait and garbage. You can control your response. Keep your heart pure. If the battle is not between you and your destiny do not participate. Don't get distracted by difficult people and get baited in conflict. Vindication, promotion, new levels of your destiny.
This was so on time. Thank you Joel.
Ephesians 6:12 dont forget who is the great instigator.. dont listen to him rise above
Im so thankful i was brought to this video because i was able to not only better myself!! but share this message with a friend, who is dealing with a similar problem as me. God really is good and im so thankful. Im also thankful i got offended because if I hadn’t i wouldn’t have searched or remembered this video i wouldn’t have been able to help my friend with the good news if I hadn’t felt this way and searched or even i had ignored my feelings. God really did something amazing with me today when i was least expecting it and with what i least expected.
I pray for everyone involved including myself and everyone there and everyone that sees this and everyone in the thread with the holy spirit He knows everything and everyone personally in Jesus's name praise Jesus thank God for Jesus Amen 💕🙏💕🙏 Jesus was nice even to the demon possessed in the book of Luke for a reason. He helped the guy and gave him rest in Jesus's name praise Jesus thank God for Jesus Amen 💕🙏💕🙏
Oh my goodness so Greatful that your message was so inspiring that whole situation has happened to more than once in my 75 years, but today you turned the page in my life, so today I'm making it my oil free life Change, So Greatful for this message,❤️🙏🙋
Powerful message Joel. This is very inspiring. God bless you Joel.
Amen🎊
