I have no one to turn to, but you Heavenly Father. Give me strength as I struggle to buy groceries, and as I struggle to pay rent, and as I struggle to do it all for my sons. Keep us safe and protect us from the evil ones of this world. 💕

Thank you Pastor Evans for the word. I'm not going to get political but we all need Jesus. I'm 66 and never saw the world ready to implode. I pray to the Lord that everyone can settle down in Jesus name I pray. I stay at home and take care of my disabled husband and I listen to Pastor Evans everyday. I have never heard a Pastor that is more clear than he is. I hope there is a world left for all these young ones. Thank Pastor Evans once again. Stay well my brothers and sisters.🙋🏻♀️🙏📖💜
Amen! My dear sister!
Amen, sister. I stand in agreement with you. 🙏
May GOD bless you pastor Tony Evans
@luChewy8458 you are not alone. My wife is a young adult like you (same age) and God has placed her in the position to be caregiver of me as I live with a crippling rare brain disease. Putting the Lord first has helped us both. With that we can witness to others for His glory. I agree with the genuine anointment of pastor Evans. Notice he is one of the few high profile preachers that do not come under attack on the Internet. For as long as I've known him, his life is a great example for us. Warmest regards to you and your husband. Be a blessing.
I am 18 and I’m trying to live out the gospel and share the love of Christ. I’ll keep trying and I will pray for you to be at peace in our gracious father’s hands.
There ain't a sugar daddy on earth that can out do Jesus. He paid my past debt and future🎉❤
Thank you Jesus for paying my bills, Amen 🙏
Just as a baby grows as it feeds on milk, so we as Born Again Believers must grow in Christ. Growth is painful, but it yields an abundance of blessings from The Lord? It costs to be a Child of God, but not the cost Jesus paid for us! Amen!📖🙏🏾 Praise You Lord for calling me out of darkness into Your Marvelous Light! Thank you Pastor Evans for teaching us!🙏🏾
I plead the precious blood of Jesus Christ. Over every single believer on earth and in Earth and in heaven. I played the precious blood of Jesus. Over all those who would ask for his help in his Mighty name. And all those who do not know him. Help them get to know him and all those who do know him. Help them get to know him even more and better. In the mighty precious name of Jesus Christ Amen.
Father Tony Evans! Thankful for you man. I miss OCBF w/ a passion, but I am also VERY thankful for TUA and THE INTERNET! Still feel like I'm home, but in Virginia now...
Simply,Let's get serious with our deliverance and stop playing lukewarm games with our saviour. May God give us the strength to embrace the Kingdom with seriousness of Purpose .Amen
Good morning Pastor Evans, Thank you for the word of God.
Jesus paid our sin debt! Thank you Jesus ❤
Sometimes a year of marriage and the one year tumultuous storms can be anywhere from 5-40 years without Jesus Christ or with Jesus Christ. Come on somebody!!!❤
Amen! 🙏🏾🙌🏾💜 Trying to become more diligent in my daily studies.
God Bless the Church

Yeah I gotta preach the word. I am only 18 and I try to look Christian but man I gotta know Jesus better.
Focus on being at peace, it will allow you to hear the holy spirit which will teach you the gospel of Christ.. your going to make mistakes but understand it's not a mistake it's a lesson. Focus daily on the fruits of the spirit. It's an outline on how to make it in this world as a follower of Christ. I'm beyond proud of you for giving yourself to our father God at your age ❤
I LOVE YOU LORD
Thank you for continuing to stand with me for my breakthrough. God surely is at work and I long to see what He is doing behind the scenes
Thank you brother Evans!!
The four faces of Jesus depicts the ‘Son of Man’ which is the gospel of Saint Luke who was physician. This is his humanity - this is who was crucified. God bless you for preaching over the internet - here I can rewind it
Am inspired by your moves sir, am from Africa Zambia 🇿🇲
Brothers and sisters, Jesus Christ is coming back soon! Continue to talk about the good news, and while doing so, be watchful and praying. This world is coming to an end, and we need to be on the right side.
Thank you Pastor Tony Evans for such an amazing message. I listened to this on the way to work and I thank God for you for this. What a great start to my work day. I love to get the word in. From you and Pastor Stanley may he rest in peace. God has truly anointed you both to touch so many lives. I praise God for that. May you continue to touch souls around the world. 🙏🏾🙏🏾🙏🏾❤❤❤

Hello how do you make such monthly?
Mind sharing,I'm a born Christian and sometimesI feel so down of myself because of low finance but I still believe in God.
Thanks to my co-worker (Alex) who introduced me to Ms Renee Marie Harrison.
I remember giving her my first savings $11,000 and she opened a brokerage account for me, which turned out to be the best thing that ever happened to me.
After I raised up to 525k trading with her I bought a new House and a car here in the states 🇺🇸🇺🇸 also paid for my son's surgery (Oscar). Glory to God.shalom.

Awesome teaching and wake up!! Onward Christians let’s get up and go for Jesus✝️🩸🕊
Comment 1 - Hi Dr. Evans, thank you for this message. I had to think about this a bit. I understood everything you said, but can you teach a message that explains the rewards we will receive in heaven AFTER the Bema seat judgement.? Specifically, what happens to those who are saved as though by fire, but do not have works equivalent to gold, silver and precious stones, but whose works burn up because they are equivalent to wood, hay, and stubble? We know they are saved because the common salvation in Jude is a gift that we are given when God makes us alive together with Christ (the calling) so we are no longer dead in our sins and tresspasses. We are sealed until the day of redemption (The Bema Seat Judgement?) and the salvation of our spirit is complete. But the salvation of our soul comes at the end of our faith (1 Peter 1:3-9). - 3 Blessed be the God and Father of our Lord Jesus Christ! According to his great mercy, he has caused us to be born again to a living hope through the resurrection of Jesus Christ from the dead, 4 to an inheritance that is imperishable, undefiled, and unfading, kept in heaven for you, 5 who by God's power are being guarded through faith for a salvation ready to be revealed in the last time. 6 In this you rejoice, though now for a little while, if necessary, you have been grieved by various trials, 7 so that the tested genuineness of your faith-more precious than gold that perishes though it is tested by fire-may be found to result in praise and glory and honor at the revelation of Jesus Christ. 8 Though you have not seen him, you love him. Though you do not now see him, you believe in him and rejoice with joy that is inexpressible and filled with glory, 9 obtaining the outcome of your faith, the salvation of your souls.
Amen. I don't want to offend anyone, but you have some people who are not true believers. So it's hard to relate to them. They teach the gospel and know the word but are not true believers. Have you ever interacted with someone and they speak life into you and your soul. Then you go around others and there is nothing but words. Pastor Evans you walk, talk and teach the gospel.
Pastor, I didn't see a link to sign up for the cruise.
Why is the cruise called the “Tony Evans” cruise and not “Oak Cliff”?
