Jumia Books Crushing: God Turns Pressure into Power

Crushing moments are those unexpected, often painful, experiences that challenge our faith and question God’s presence. According to T.D. Jakes, these moments are not the end, but rather the catalyst for transformation and growth.

Key Insights:

• Crushing moments can be triggered by various events, such as personal struggles, family crises, or unexpected setbacks.
• These experiences can make us feel helpless, hopeless, and uncertain about God’s involvement.
• However, Bishop Jakes shares his own stories of crushing moments, including his daughter’s teenage pregnancy, his mother’s battle with Alzheimer’s, and his son’s heart attack, to demonstrate how God can use these situations to prepare us for unexpected blessings.
• The book emphasizes that faithfulness through suffering can lead to surprising joy, comfort, and fulfillment of God’s purpose.
• Crushing moments can be redefined as opportunities for God to create something new, rather than mere obstacles to progress.
