God’s Approval Is All You Need | Steven Furtick

Whose opinion has the final say over your life? It’s easy to let criticism, comparison, or even your own thoughts become the loudest voice in the room. If you’ve been questioning your worth, replaying your failures, or struggling with people-pleasing, it’s time to discover what happens when you stop living for people’s approval and start trusting God’s verdict instead.

Highlights from this message:
“When you are a servant of God’s purpose, you won’t be a slave to people’s praise.” (00:00)
“Don’t let anybody’s schedule intimidate you for where your life is supposed to be right now.” (02:13)
“Stop judging stuff that God is not done with yet.” (10:36)
“Power to change belongs to God.” (21:50)
“The point isn’t that I’m such a sinner or that I’m such a saint; it’s that he’s such a Savior.” (22:18)
