Who is Jesus? He is our Comfort - 148

Send Questions or comments here! We'll respond back in future episodes.A poll was taken by Pastor Costi Hinn on X, formerly known as Twitter, and Instagram and hundreds of people responded on Instagram and thousands of responses flooded in on X. The question was “what comfort do you sometimes turn to BEFORE Jesus?" The responses to vote on included comfort foods/snacks, working out, retail therapy, complaining/venting. The results were very disturbing. More than 85% sometimes turn to comfort food (as I do sometimes), or complaining and venting before turning to Christ. That’s a big OUCH!When we rely on comforts to solve our problems or meet our emotional needs, we often find that they fall short of achieving the desired results. Comforts, such as food, shopping, or other pleasurable activities, might provide temporary relief or distraction, but they are unable to address the deeper issues at hand. In fact, they can act as thieves, luring us into a false sense of security and leaving us feeling empty or unfulfilled in the long run.Comforts can become problematic when we become overly dependent on them or use them as a means to escape or avoid facing our problems. This reliance can lead to unhealthy coping mechanisms and, in some cases, addictive behaviors. We might turn to comforts repeatedly, seeking momentary relief without actually addressing the root causes of our issues. As a result, we get trapped in a cycle where we constantly seek comfort, yet never truly find lasting solutions or resolution.This week we continue our series on Who is Jesus. This week we discuss Jesus, our Comfort. Do you need comfort in your life today, but you are looking in all the wrong places? We all do that at times in our life.Visit our website at www.connectingthegap.net for everything about our ministry and be sure to check us out on social media on X and Facebook.Transcripts for this series are also available on the website as well.Thanks for joining us this week and we hope you have a blessed week!Based on Costi Hinn More than a HealerSupport the showContact us at Marriage Life and More and Connecting the Gap MinistriesWebsite: https://www.marriagelifeandmore.comFacebook: https://www.facebook.com/ctgaponlineX and Instagram: @ctgaponlineYouTube: https://www.youtube.com/@connectingthegapRumble: https://rumble.com/c/c-1351356Email us at [email protected] direct link: https://open.spotify.com/show/4Zg2rss7gRtCfzCggGVYl9Apple Podcast direct link: https://podcasts.apple.com/us/podcast/connecting-the-gap-podcast/id1586240413Connecting the Gap does not own the rights to any audio clips or bumper music embedded in the episodes sourced from third parties.Thanks for listening, and please subscribe!Sky High Broadcasting Corp.
