Elevation with Steven Furtick - The Question That Changes Everything

Episode Date: February 6, 2026

Many of us have lived our entire lives asking, "What can God do for me?" But what happens when our perspective changes and we begin asking, "What can God do through me?"See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.

This is an I-Heart podcast. Guaranteed Human. Hey, this is Stephen Ferdick. I'm the pastor of Elevation Church, and this is our podcast. I wanted to thank you for joining us today. Hope this inspires you. Hope it builds your faith. Hope it gives you perspective to see God is moving in your life.

Enjoy the message. God's really been speaking to me this week. And it's for that reason that I wanted to interrupt the series and the message that I was going to bring from this stage. and just talk to you. I told Wade I was going to talk to you today like you were on staff at this church. I said, I'm going to talk to the whole church like they are on unpaid staff. I clarify that. I want to speak to you about vision.

How many of you have a vision for your life? Now, how many of you could explain your vision for your life? And that's kind of the problem sometimes is that I know it, but I can't explain it. My job is to figure out a way to explain some things that sometimes we intuitively know. And earlier this year, you may be watching this at a later time on the archive, but it was at the beginning of 2016, that I began to ask God to give me a fresh language for our vision as a church. A way of expressing where we've been, where we're going, and who God has called us to be

that everybody could understand, relate to, and even explain to their friends. I guess it kicked off when I was on an airplane as all great preacher's story start, and the guy next to me asked, what do you do? And I told him I was a preacher, and he said, really, you don't look to you. like a preacher. And I said, well, then what do I look like? He said, he looked at me really hard. He said, I don't know, either some kind of fighter or musician. And I said, well, I fight the devil with my praise. I said, no, I pastor church. It's great. He's from Charlotte. I was like, you should try it. I want you to come because I was trying to explain to him that you

could watch it online. Here's the website. But you really got to come. And I know it's a little inconvenient sometimes and you feel like I could just click on, but you really got to come to experience it. I said because I think my preaching is okay, but it's really the people. And I can prove that to you because a lot of times when I get an email, they'll say, we knew from the moment we rolled up on the parking lot that this was our church. We knew when we saw people smiling, excited, happy, enthusiastic, and joyful that this was our church. They hadn't heard a sermon yet. It wasn't what happened behind the pulpit, but it was what was happening as they parked their car.

So I said, you really got to come. And he said, well, I may some time. And he said, how many people come? I said, well, I'm going to tell you, it's a lot of people. I want you to know that it's a lot of people in its different locations. It's a lot of people. He said, how many? I said, well, there's thousands of people.

And he said, how many thousands? You got thousands of people? How many thousands of people? I said, well, bro, it's like over 20,000. I'm not trying to be something, but if you just want to ask, it's over 20,000. And then he cussed when I said that because he was not a Christian. You know people who aren't Christians don't talk like Christians. So he said the non-Christian equivalent of, well, praise the Lord, glory to God.

And his next question floored me in this is where I want to go today. And I won't be long. I just want to say something really simple to you. He asked me, why do they come? Now, that's complicated. I know what the answer to that is supposed to be, but I don't always know what it is. I said, man, I've asked myself that question a lot. I think some people might come because they heard the girls are hot.

I think some people might come because their grandmother told them if they didn't go to church, go to hell and this is a more enjoyable option than certain other churches. I think some people come because they like the music, some people come because of social reasons and friendships, and some people come because their parents gave them no option on that particular morning or evening. But got me thinking, why did you come? Would you take a moment and just tell the person next to you why came to church today? Just if you could do that real quick.

Why did you come? At every campus. Yes, you too, Blakeney. Yes, you too, Rakiel. Why'd you come? You didn't have to come. You could be washing your car, cleaning your closet. Glad you came, by the way.

It's better when you're here. I prayed that you would come. I started praying over 10 years ago. Okay, the exercise is over. I don't know. I'm trying to figure that on myself. It's a good question. I may as well draw on this thing.

They brought it up here. I mean, get used for something. Why? Not a lot of people spend their whole lives figuring out what. But when he asked me why, it got me remembering why we started the church, you know? And there's thousands of new people here that weren't here just even a few weeks ago because the church is growing. And I needed you to know why because if I don't tell you why, and I just leave it up to

you to figure out why, you might think that we put this thing. on to entertain you. Like a spiritual VMAs, but we didn't. Or you may think that we started the church or have the church or something like that to build buildings. Let me tell you something. I have no passion for construction. The first time I saw this building where I preached from was a couple weeks before we opened

it. Not into building buildings. They're cool. I thank God for them and they're expensive. But why? My favorite scripture is Ephesians 320. And Ephesians 320 describes the experience that I have had over the past 10 years as a pastor. God's about to do something awesome, and I'm trying to get as many people ready for it as I can.

He says, Paul says, now to him who is able to do immeasurably more than we ask or imagine. The biggest thought you can think up would make God laugh. When you go to imagining what could be possible through your life, if God got a hold of it, even your best imagination is pale in comparison to the reality of God's ability. Now to him who is able to do immeasurably more than we ask or imagine.

According to his power, I don't know why I brought a stool out. I'm too excited to sit on this stool today. Touch your neighbors say, God's about to do something. God's about to do something. I mean, we're about to go into revival season. Needs are going to be met. God's going to be glorified. Hell's going to be popping pro-zac pills.

Ten nights of glory. It's going to be awesome. Thousands of people signing up in e-groups. Strengthening their relationships, getting accountability. God is doing something in our church. I mean, there are things going on that you don't even know about. There are ministries that are going on that you don't even know about. And yet there are thousands of people who aren't even in on it.

And I don't want it. I was asking God, what can I tell the people before this season takes off so fast that they're trying to merge into traffic and they can't get on? And what can I tell the people who don't even know why we do it? Why we do what we do? He said, now, to him, was able to do measurably more than we ask or imagine according to his power that is at work within us. Here's a Bible story for you. When you talk about why did you come, what are your motives?

Why? Why? Why would you put yourself through? the Ballantime parking lot exit. They'll be like, you go to elevation, why do you go there? Why? And you tell them, oh, it's the water slide.

I go for the water slide. And they might ask you that. And so one day, Jesus, can I talk to you like you're on my staff today? All right. If I were talking to the staff, I would tell them about Blind Bartimaeus. Blind Bartimaeus was begging by the roadside in Mark chapter 10. Mark records this miracle as follows. He said, they came to Jericho as Jesus and his disciples together with a large crowd

were leaving the city, this blind man, Bartimaeus, which means son of Temaeus, was sitting by the roadside begging. All of a sudden he heard that it was Jesus of Nazareth. Remember, he couldn't see, but he could hear. Couldn't see, but he could hear. And so his auditory senses picked up that this miracle worker, who has been rumored to be able to heal deaf ears and make the lame to walk and open blind eyes is passing by.

So he takes a chance. He does something. He's not just going to sit there and just sit there and just sit there. Like some people do in church every week, just sit there. Touch somebody say, don't just sit there. This is how I used to preach when the church was 121 people. And it's kind of rough, so I might get it back down to 121 people. But I used to tell the people because they would come and

And they would go, well, are you going to have a program for women and for men? And I like this type of Bible study. And I like this study in the Greek and the Hebrew and the Aramaic. And I like the book of Revelations. They put the S on the end, and made a plural book. And so they said, are you going to do that? I want to book a study on the end of times. And this is my favorite preference.

And so early on, we would get up and just tell the people, you know, it's not about what you can sit and receive. There is something in you that God wants to stir up. And this man was not willing to be inactive when Jesus passed by, when the opportunity of a lifetime was headed his way, when it was possible that everything could change in a moment. This man shouts from his spot on the side of the road. Jesus, son of David, have mercy on me. Now, the crowd did what the crowd always does. They told him to shut up. What dispassionate people always do when someone gets passionate.

Try to keep you in the corner because your passion is proof of their apathy. It makes them feel bad. So they call you a fanatic. Because if they can label you as a fanatic, then they don't have to deal with the fact that they're a, you know, they're kind of struggling. But that did something inside of him. The more they told him to shut up, the more the devil was telling them that they couldn't, the more this is what happens inside of a person whose passion has been awakened. Something awesome is going to happen in church today.

I feel God on this message. He's shouted all the more. Shouted Jesus, son of David. Have mercy on me. Now let me ask you a question. And it's not a trick question. Who is this man interested in? I know.

Sunday's going to answer, Jesus. Why are you going to church today? Do worship Jesus. Yeah, yeah, sure. Okay. Why did you really? come here. I mean, this guy's interested in himself. Bartimaeus loves him some Bartimaeus. So they said, shut up. But Jesus stopped in his tracks. And Creation's king

takes a break on his journey to Jericho. For one man who everybody else was trying to push to the side. And I always felt like that was happening when I preached that. I never felt like I was preaching to crowds, no matter how many people would come to the church. I would always feel like I was preaching to one. And I never knew who the one was, but I always felt like that every time I opened God's work, that there was somebody that God was speaking to in that moment. And Jesus stopped, and everybody else said, shut up.

But Jesus said, call him. That's the one that I want. I came to preach to somebody who everybody else might have given up on you. And life might not be where you wanted to be. And you might not have been what you could have been. But it's not too late to become who you are. So Jesus is like, and they told him, hey, man, it's your turn. Cheer up on your feet, because there's nothing wrong with your feet.

So notice this is just free. This is not doing my message at all. but he used his mouth and his feet to affect what wasn't working. And so it is faith that God is interested in. And not perfection, but participation that attracts the presence of God. And so our church has always been about participation. And this man does what he can. And God does what he can't.

So he throws his cloak aside and jumps to his feet, because you can't wait around when the possibility of a miracle is imminent. You can't procrastinate when the possibility of a miracle is imminent. And so he gets up, jumps up, and came to Jesus. And when he came to Jesus, Jesus asked him a question. Kind of like the man on the plane asked me a question. And the question goes like this. What do you want me to do for you?

Reminiscent this question of John chapter 1. When Jesus was first coming on the scene, John the Baptist was the man. When Jesus came on the scene, John the Baptist pointed at him and said, one day, look, there's the Lamb of God. That's the one I've been telling you about. Maybe the whole purpose of our life isn't about us, but to point to someone who is greater than us. And he says, that's the one.

And when he said, that's the one, the two disciples that were following him transferred their church membership to Jesus. And they started following Jesus. And John was cool with that because he's the one that it was always about. And so they started following Jesus. This is funny, though, when Jesus noticed that he had some stalkers, he turned around and he asked them a question, question, question. And the question you would think would be, can you explain the theological concept of sanctification?

Because that's the kind of questions that churches usually ask before people can join. and can you explain the doctrine of the Trinity? But Jesus turns around and he asks something very simple. He breaks it down so simply. He just turns around and this is so simple. This is the first question that is recorded that Jesus asked in John's gospel. It's a question that I ask my kid a hundred times a week, although probably not in his loving of a tone as Jesus asked it here in John chapter 1, verse 38.

He asked them, what do you want? What do you want? Are you following me? What do you want? What do you want? What do you want, Elijah? Busy. What do you want? What do you want? What do you want? What do you want? What do you want? What do you want? I don't know. Point is. He starts with their motive. And God has been dealing with me about my motives. To say not only to you, why did you come here, but to challenge me as a pastor, what is it that you want for these people? What is it that you want for these people? Not what is it that you want from these people. Because maybe I've spent too

much of my ministry trying to figure out what I wanted from people. Maybe a better question is, what does God want for these people? What do you want for these people? That's a good question for every campus pastor at our church. When you stand up and you say, hey, sign up to volunteer today, what is it that we want for the people who volunteer when we're telling people, hey, give to the work of God? What is it that we want God to do for you as you give? And what is it that you want God to do for you today?

You say, well, no, that's not a good question. No, it's exactly the right question. It's the question Jesus asked Bartameas. What do you want me to do for you? The audacity that you would get to have a moment of FaceTime with the Creator, and he would want to know about little all you, pitiful you, blind you, Weak you, dysfunctional you. What do you want me to do for you?

That's the starting place. James and John heard the same question. In fact, Mark's kind of clever because, okay, when you read like a gospel account, Matthew, Mark, Luke, or John, it's not putting everything exactly when it happened. So if it's three verses later, that doesn't mean it was three minutes later. It could have been days later, weeks later. Added to that, each gospel writer, they chose how to organize their materials so that it would get across the theme of their gospel record. Mark is telling about Blind Bartimaeus.

But before he tells about Blind Bartimaeus, if you back up a few verses, he tells about James and John. Now, these were two disciples of Jesus. They had been following Jesus. Jesus explains to them that this does not end with the crown, but it ends with the cross. In other words, ultimately, for me to be glorified, I have to suffer. And so when Jesus explains that, they don't really want to hear it. too much. James and John sneak up behind Jesus. Just after he shares, they're going to spit on me, just after he shares they're going to mock me, just after he shares they're going

to beat me, just after he shares that he's going to have to die at the hands of sinful men to redeem them from the very sin that caused them to kill him. Just after he explains this to them, they come up and they want a favor. And look how they said it. Look how bold they are. Jesus said, what is this? Verse, that's not the right one. Go to the next one. Go the next one. Yeah, here it is. Teacher, we want you to do for us whatever we ask. Are you seven? And Jesus asks, okay.

What do you want me to do for you? There it is again. There must be something to this question. What do you want me to do for you? And so they say, well, listen, what we'd like is we'd like some VIP seating in heaven. Let one of us sit at your right and the other at your left. And we're good because, you know, Peter and John. And Jesus is not indignant about it.

He just tells them you don't know what you are asking. You got the question wrong. You got the question wrong. Have you gotten the question wrong? What are you here for? Not just here in the church. What are you here on the earth for? What are you put here for?

See, God's been giving me some vision. And I bet I've filled up maybe four or five, six legal pads, just writing down, scribbling, since January of this year what God was speaking. Because you know, we're going on a 10-year anniversary thing and we're doing all this amazing stuff to celebrate it. And I said, God, for the next 10 years, for all these thousands of people that you sent, and some of them come once every seven weeks and some of them are faithful every week. Some have been around a long time.

Some of them are brand new. Some of them are black, some are white. Some are young. Some are old. Some came from Catholic Church. church. Some of them kind of Baptist, and we're going to pray for them. I was a Baptist, I'm just kidding. What do you want to do for them? How can I put it to them? Because I wanted a phrase that everybody could know and say, and our mission, our church mission is so that people far from God

will be raised to life in Christ. That's who we reach. In other words, we're saying it's not the healthy that need a doctor, it's the sick. In other words, we're saying that if we ever shut our doors and decide this is as big as we want to get because it's comfortable for us and our families, God will take his hand of favor off this ministry, and that ain't going to happen. We're always going to fling our doors wide open. We're always going to build new churches. To the brother who wants to know, when's it going to be enough, it'll never be enough. It'll never be enough.

As long as there's one person to reach, it'll never be enough. We're never going to stop. We're never going to stop. We're never going to stop. As long as there's one blind Barnemus by the roadside begging, who might have given up on himself. But when Jesus passes by, something awesome can happen. We're going to keep building and keep growing.

It'd be a blessing. It's our mission. It doesn't change, but it's like I wanted a way to say the vision. So the first phrase I wrote down, I was doing on my legal path, I wrote down this phrase. Everybody ready? Come on. That fancy? I didn't have that capability 10 years ago.

And I wrote down this phrase. I was like, okay, here's what we do as a church? What do we do as a church? When you come here, what happens? And I wrote down this phrase. I was really proud of it because it rhymes. And see, that's kind of why I didn't choose that one, because see how you were just like, fine.

I was so excited about it. I came over to trunk. I said, I got it. And it rhymes. And they both start with the same vowel. Encounters that empower. That's what we do. You know, like Isaiah, he saw the Lord high and lifted up.

And when people come in our church, we want to see the Lord high and lifted up. And the train of his robe fills the temple with glory. And then when God says, whom shall I sin? Who will go for us? and he touches your lips and he cleanses you of your sin because you're an unclean person and you live amongst the people of unclean people. And God empowers you and Isaiah went on to prophesy. And that's what we want.

We want people to have an encounter with God that will empower them for their life. And I looked at chunks and he said, that's cool. And it's right. That's what we want to happen. But I didn't feel like you would say that to your friend. You know, come with me to church for an encounter that empowers. So I said, okay, well, that's the right idea. It's not the right way of saying it necessarily.

So then I came up with an even worse one. I was like, all right, when people come to this church, what is it that they're looking for? What do they want? And I put down this phrase, which is phonetically impressive. I said, they want audacious inspiration. That's what they want. Right. Yes, that's exactly what we're.

what I woke up thinking about today, Pastor Stephen. I need some audacious inspiration in my life. There's all these preacher terms. And this week, this week, I was with our team, and we had meetings all day about this. I was like, I want a town of people. I want them to know. I want that of the church who keeps seeking in and out. I want him to know what we want for his life, because it's what God wants for his life.

We're going to figure it out, and we can't figure it out. We're going to shut the church down. It's been nice. We shut the door and stayed up kind of late and went home with nothing. The next day, I was standing up because sometimes the breakthrough comes when you've given up on it. I've been like eight months looking for this. And I was talking to this guy, and I was like, I don't know. I'm looking for phrasing eight months.

I can't figure out how to say it where everybody can get around it. And then I just said it. And this is it. This is why you came. This is what we want for you. I finally figured out how to answer the guy on the plane. question. It took me eight months. But the way I said it, I said, if you come to Elevation Church, what I want for you is I want you to see what God can do through you. And when I said it like that,

I knew it. That's it. Whether you know it or not, that's what you know it or not, that's what brought you here? Because sometimes you don't even know why you came when you come. What do you want me to do for you? Blind Bartimaeus had an answer to that question. He said, I want to see and Jesus opened his eyes. I want to see so he got his vision. That's where it all starts. Just to see. That's one of the greatest ways you can invite someone to church, by the Hey, just come and see when they told Jesus we want to see where you're staying because he turned around to those two guys and he said What do you want? They said well we want to see where you're staying. You know what he said? Come and see And that's the first part just to see because people are wandering through life blind to opportunities

Blind to potential blind to new beginnings and the first thing that God will do in transforming your life is open your eyes so you can see You've got to just come and see. How many of you have said that to somebody? You just got to see. You've said it before. You've said it before. You've got to see for yourself. See.

See. So I believe that God wants you to see what He. This is important. Changing colors. What God. Apologize for my handwriting. Can. apologize for my spelling, apologize for not knowing how to erase this board yet, can do to see

what God can do. Up until this point in your life, you've seen what you can do. And isn't it time for you to throw your cloak to the side of the road and see what God can do, not what people can do, not what your mom can do, not what a Democrat can do or a Republican can do, but to see what God can't who is able to see. Neither has entered into the heart of Come on. Touch five people. Tell them, I want to see what God can do. I want to see what God can do. I've taken my life as far as it can go. I slept with a lot of different people. I still feel empty. I earn some money. I still feel empty. I got a job. I still feel empty. I'm ready for purpose now. I'm ready for meaning now. I'm ready for a well that won't run dry. I'm ready for

bread that satisfies. I told you this message is going to be a shift. I was so excited to preach it. I thought, well, I'll share that later in the year. God said, you'll share it when I tell you to share it. I said, when am I going to share? He said, share it now because somebody is sitting by the roadside, and the opportunity is passing by. Don't you want to see what God can do? As a church, wouldn't you?

Or do you want to be telling the story to your kids one day of what God could have done? You want to lay there one day on some bed? I know you're going to be 120 when you die because you eat kale and not gluten. But you want to be laying there at that point thinking about what God could have done, would have done, or do you want to see? I'm sorry, I know that the crowds are telling me to shut up, but I've got to see what God can do, what God can do for you. That's where it starts. to see what God can do for you. And that's a great place to start, because you need a touch from God, and it's by grace we're saved through faith.

And I can't do it for myself. And I want this to be a place where you can come and God can do for you what you need done. Because some weeks you're going to need direction and encouragement. You've got a business decision and this thing with your kids. And I want you to come here to see what God can do for you. It's a great place to start, but it's a terrible place to stop. Because when God spoke the vision of this church to me for the next 10 years and the vision that he asked for each and every life that's represented within this body of believers, he

didn't say for you to see what God could do for you. He said, it's time for you to see what God can do. I'm excited about this. Now to him who is able to do, give them 320 again. What time is it? It's 320. Ephesians 3.20 time. It's 320. Whenever you're watching this, it's 320. Set your watch. 320. Who is able to do. God, see what God can do, immeasurably more than we ask or imagine.

According to His power, your potential is equal to God's power. And nothing is impossible to Him who believes. Please, come on. Oh, I feel the Holy Spirit of God stirring something up in this place, in your life, in our communities, in Raleigh, North Carolina, in Gaston, North Carolina, Gaston County. Don't you want to see what God can do according to the power that works? This is the key within us. God has a job to do in the earth. He's about redeeming.

He's about restoring. He's about reclaiming. He's about replenishing. God has a job to do. Touch the person next to you. Tell him God has a job to do. But give him the part B. Give him the part B because if you just tell him that, they'll wait for him to do it.

Tell him again, God has a job to do. But he's going to do it through you. Through you. Point at somebody and say, through you? Put your finger right in their face unless it's going to cause trouble at home and tell you And tell them through you, through you, through you. And notice that there is no clause following this sentence. That's where the period goes.

Right there. Not what God can do through you when, not what God could do through you if. I want you to see what God can do through you now. Yeah, but I'm a murderer. I hear you, Moses. all right. Take off your shoes and take the next step. The place you are standing on is holy grab up to do and I want to do it through you. Through you. Through you, through you, through you, through you, through you, through you, through you, through you, through you, through you, through you, through you, through you, through you, through you, through you, through you, through you, through you, through you, through you, through you. Through you, through you, through you, through you, through you, through you, through you, through you, through you, through you, through you, through you, through you, through you, through you, through you, through you, through you, through you, through you, through you.

God wants his power to flow through you. Stand on your feet. I've said what I came to say. That's what you came for. And it needs to shift in your heart today. It's okay to start with what God can do for you. But the cool part about Bartimaeus is what happened after his eyes were open. He saw what God could do for him.

This is the cool verse. I don't think people preach about this because if you're doing it, you want the climax to be, and he could see. But the really important part is what happened next. And it's going to come right here. It says that Jesus told him to go, and he said that his faith had healed him, and then it said that immediately he received his sight, see what God can do for you, and then, this is the part. He followed Jesus along the road. Now, the greatest miracle in Bartimaeus life was not that he got to see what God could do for him. It said he made the decision to follow Jesus and see what God could do through you.

What could God do through you? I don't know. I don't just mean in the church, by the way. I hope you volunteer. I hope they swarm the tents when they're leaving today and just volunteer. I'm not doing a volunteer push. This isn't a giving sermon. This is nothing like that.

This is what's in my heart for you. that if you're part of this ministry and this movement, whether online or on television or locally here at one of our campuses, I want you to see not what God can do through me. We have so elevated the platform of the preacher. The preacher has no platform if the people have no sense of mission. I wish I knew your name. I'll call it out. I'll just call your name straight out. I'm not a prophet, so I can't do that kind of stuff.

I could make something up. I could call you Doug. You might not be Doug. Through Fergie over here. Fergie wasn't always running a camera in the church. Fergie was a mess. A little teenager, a little punk teenager, came over to the church ten years ago, been with me almost the whole time.

My first capital campaign where I raised money in the church, we didn't have a building yet. We were praying for a building, but we wanted to have the money ready when we had it, because we want to raise money for a building, we wanted to raise money for a vision. When I would raise money, I had a picture of Fergie getting baptized on my wall, and when donors would come in and they'd say, what are we giving to? I point to Fergie getting baptized. I say, that's our mission. That boy, he's a man now.

He's got some traps and some triceps, big old camera runs this tube cameras. Only three people in the state of North Carolina license to run one of these. I made that part up. He does run it. And he puts me on TV. He puts me on TV every week. Half a million people watch on TV, thousands online, all that every week, every week. And he shows that, show them the crowd real quick if you can.

I don't know if they have it set up for that, but just show them, Fergie, do the... Look what God's doing through you. Through you. And that's only a part of it. That's only a part of it. That's only a part of it. That's only a part of it. That's only we can't show everything, but he wrote me a letter last year when we were opening our Valentine campus and said,

if I get to open, I'm in your way. Go ahead. I'll step out the way. He had to do his job. He said that I prayed that God would let me open every, be a part of opening every elevation church. This teenage kid, he could have said I'm too young, he could have said I'm too messed up. He would come in on Sunday, smell like. cigarette smoke every Sunday. And he could have said, no, not me. But now look what God is doing through him. Now, I just want to ask the question. Are you ready to see what God can do through you? Lift your hands. Father, I thank you in this moment that lives are being surrendered, that hearts are being opened. I thank you that imaginations are being excited and instigated

by the possibilities of faith. We want to see as a church you continue to move mountains, but it's only going to happen if the people speak. It's only going to happen if the people move. So God, we commit in this place to see what you can do through us. I want to see what God can do through me. I'm lifting my hands because I want to see what God can do through me. Our Father, who are in heaven, hallow it be your name, your kingdom come, your will be done on earth as it is in heaven, in my life as it is in heaven. Now unto him who is able to do immeasurably more than we ask for imagine according to the power that works in you, that works in you, it's working in you, it's working in you.
