I owe it to my amazing family and church members to rest and ruminate as He restores me towards His service.”

Outpouring of Support

Jakes acknowledged the overwhelming support, saying: “I’ve heard from friends from the global community who expressed God’s love in ways that were astonishing! God’s faithfulness was unmistakable to all those present.”

Jakes ended his message with humility and gratitude for his family, church members, and leadership team, assuring his supporters that he remains committed to his calling: “Together, we press forward, steadfast in the work the Lord has set before us. I’m forever humbled by your outpouring of love and support.”
