There's A Hole In Your Story | Pastor Steven Furtick | Elevation Church

Have you ever had someone tell you a story and at the end you felt like there was important information missing? Maybe your middle schooler said, “yeah, I finished my homework,” with a guilty expression on their face. Maybe the media presented what they called, “The facts…” but it didn’t seem like they showed the whole picture. It’s hard to trust someone when there are holes in their story.
But what if there are holes in your story, the story you’ve been telling yourself? Many of us have been telling ourselves stories for years, “I’m not…”, “I can’t…”, “I don’t…”, “They won’t…”. In this encouraging message from Pastor Steven Furtick of Elevation Church in Charlotte, NC we’ll learn how to interrogate the stories we tell ourselves. They may be what has been keeping you from receiving a full revelation of God for your life.
Don’t miss a very powerful section at the end of this message from Acts 10 verses 39 and 40 where Pastor Steven starts preaching from a punctuation mark. Pain, hurt and doubt punctuate all of our stories but no matter how much we’re tempted to let them slow us down it’s imperative we, “Don’t stop at the comma…”.

So raw and real....that God should have stopped the cancer...but it was not his story...pure anointing...he gets to the real stuff...sees it at our level and not as people would expect it to be told *as christians*..,and then gets us out if there...I can’t get enough of his preaching

[@jessicaresor3654]

I have been very distant from church and God lately. It seemed like I was on fire for Him just a short 2 months ago. The enemy has really been disrupting me and my peace. Its been making sermons less appealing, and even scripture. I came across this sermon and had to really push myself to press play. I am so grateful I did, spiritual warfare is such a real thing. This message strengthened me in this dry season and I am so grateful for a God who has never left my side through it. Thank you Elevation church. God has more for me, the best has yet to come, and my story is not going to be cut short.

God has been w/ me in all things especially the hard ones … no matter how many times I go astray, grow distracted, detached, disconnected, doubtful … he has been here ever step of the way with unconditional love &undying grace. When I label &limit myself of unworthiness he’s says otherwise … he shows me otherwise. To him be the glory … I can’t thank him enough. Amen ! Thank you

I was not supposed to be here, but God Sometimes we get lost into the story and miss a bigger picture from God. When we label ourselves, we Limit ourselves. Most times we chose stories to tell ourselves and we dont have to chose every situation. Its not Devil's Story. Word! Amen

[@kimberlyberndt280]

I was plucked out of the darkness and ascended toward the light and there the Lord stood in all his glory and he showed his Sacred Heart and I said child why do you see I love when I walked with you all the days of your life. I just stood there in awe like I was frozen in Time. It's no love on Earth that compares to the love And peace that I felt in his presence. As the light surrounded me he said I must go now and finish my story. Jesus said on to me that I will carry the light all the days of my life until I see him again. I'm going to something's in my story right now but my heart is on fire for our Lord and savior Amen

[@user-lk8nw8tz2o]

i had to pause this sermon so many times because of how much God was SPEAKING to me. I mean SPEAKING. I literally had my jaw open and just surprised and laughed to myself. Last night i was crying because of many personal stuff and the pain from it all. Moreover, i had someone leave my life 1.5 months ago, and i kept making it about me or them or filling in the story, I ended believing something was wrong with me last night but God was telling me its about them, not me. How I need to fix my stories. Thank you pastor steven and elevation church for this. I'm not even done with the sermon yet but i just had to comment. I now have a smile on my face as God continues to talk to me, plus i believe God is calling me to Chicago for grad school, and I was also thinking how hard it seemed to go from california to there. I was questioning if its the right thing. But as soon Pastor Steven said "This is so hard it must be God" , it hit me right in my feelings, thank you to Pastor steven and the church for blessing all of us with the sermons, and how he continues to preach, no matter the season. lots of love ♡

Justin I recently had to walk away from my parents not by choice but for my own peace and insanity and in the process I have learned that sometimes God needs to get us in a place of loneliness for us to realize all we need is Him. He is our friend our father he is ALL we will ever need. Continue to pray for your children and continue to praise God through this season remember change is good allow God to work not just in you but also in your children. In Gods timing all broken things will be restored and all relationships will be mended. Keep your faith Brother God is with you and seeing you through this. Much Love

[@Wes99mustang]

Praying for you Justin! Keep seeking God! The apostle Paul was in a place where he was deserted by those around him. But in that hard time, he experienced the "never leaving nor forsaking" closeness of God. He described it this way: "The Lord stood with me and gave me strength" (2 Timothy 4:17). I have no doubt that God is with you! Keep seeking Him. He has great plans for you!

[@agonzo1517]

Wow pastor if I could be in that church during this sermon oh how I wouldn’t stop crying and shouting because this passage in fact almost every message you had in the last 2 weeks has been for me. I am going through a season of God removing people from my life at the moment and it was hard but I have been praying blessings into those relationships changing the story. Yes I’ve been through so much from a child to adult hood but God has seen me through each time. Today is my birthday and I am so blessed to know that 37 years ago he held me physically one last time in his arms before I left Heaven and 37 years later my Father still holds me in his arms 😍 this is my story and God is changing it for my good hallelujah

[@sowhat1191]

This message was on time. I've spent the last two weeks complaining about my teenager being selfish. So when Pastor said he's not selfish, he's scared... It made sense. He's literally at 14 trying to do what he needs to in order to transition into adulthood. He's not selfish. He's scared. He still needs more of my help than I realized. Thank you Pastor for your obedience. Edit: Idk about anyone else reading this, but imo the hardest part of raising a teenager is hearing them constantly tell you they don't need you while simultaneously needing you. It's maddening.

When you're still trying to live by faith and your Pastor sings a song your mom sang when you were little "Dear Liza Dear Liza" 🙌😭God is definitely talking to us through you. I'm going to fill my holes with faith. My mom also used to always say be nice Lisa be nice, which sounds bad. You're probably thinking I wasn't very nice, I was, she just wanted me to be nice all the time and not have moments when anger or judgement rise up. Funny, that it was a prequel for this walk, because that's the same thing Christ wants.

He who began a good work in you will be faithful to complete it.....WAIT Pastor keep preaching!! Exactly how I felt lol. What an on time message!!! This situation that I’m in has always lead me to believe there is something wrong with me. I allowed many people: friends, family, coworkers, etc. to make me feel this way but with this message, I feel encouraged to not believe that anymore. It’s my story. It’s MY story. God has for the longest time been showing me something with a deeper meaning and I could never understand it....until this message. I’m making the decision to pray and simply believe that there is more to the story, believe that it’s not me, Gods working on them.

Telling myself what's wrong with me, stuck in a hole of pitty & insecurities. I'm tired of listening to satan & I'm ready to listen to Jesus. I'm ready to listen to God's story because his story is far better, greater than what I could ever imagine.

That was such a POWERFUL teaching. It’s crazy how we can drift through days, months, years and decades believing the stories that someone has told us. Stories that feel like part of our DNA! Jeez! INSANE! Your friend’s story about cancer BROKE ME! Her faith! The way she chooses to see the blessing on the middle of a storm! I needed to hear that! Thank you so much for such an AMAZING teaching. I feel that was for me! God bless you Steven Furtick! Such anointing!
