Move It To The Middle | Pastor Steven Furtick | Elevation Church
Stressed, insecure, and stuck — that’s how Moses felt, too. But that wasn’t the end of his story, and it’s not yours, either. It’s just the middle. There’s hope past this chapter, and it’s found by shifting your focus back to God.

My sermon notes for “Move it to the middle”
1.) Everyone in your life or encounter is in the middle of something
2.) Purpose determines position. You have a purpose and God has a plan
3.) But he, make a pivot and begin to see that what you were dwelling on and what you thought was the end and let God move it to the middle. Remember that it be the end if you allow it to be the end
Okay! The rap genius of sermons 😅😂
@AAlford32 ppreciate it broski 😘👊
Your sermons saved me while I was caring for my terminally ill husband..he’s gone now but your sermons daily sometimes hourly help me feel hopeful in the darkest hours.. Thank y’all so very much Pastor Steven and Pastor Holly you saved me. God has beauty for ALL of these ashes.
“Jesus is the Everlasting Father with compassion for His children. He pities his children and shelters them with His love (Psalm 103:13). His mercy endures forever and you can anticipate his forgiveness with joy. Above all, these benefits are yours to enjoy for eternity, if only you surrender your life to Him” WHOA THATS GOOD! THANK YOU JESUS!
how can I pray for you!???
God bless you.
My notes
“You will not run out of it, because you will not run out of him.
.. it can be the end if you let it be. If you let it end you, it will end you. If you let it make you tap, it will end you. If you let it define you, it will define you. If you let it bury you, it will bury you.
What you think may be the end of your story, move it to the middle.
When you focus on what God has given you, what he has made you to do, and fix your eyes on Jesus, it will always be enough.”
Those who prayed for my friend Catherine,: She does not want to get her hopes up too much because she fears the disappointment when she would need surgery. I told her to dance nonetheless. May God fill her with His love and peace
It’s always different in the middle! Amen thank you Jesus I needed to hear this🙏🏼 🥲
Everybody we meet is in the middle of something. If we remember that, we will be more merciful to them
I feel like I do get stressed a lot and focus on how i feel, not think about other people. I need to move my focus to God to help me through. It’s not the end….move it to the middle!
It’s so incredible how something you say will coincide verbatim with what my pastor said the same day! You said it’s only a chapter;it’s not the whole story and he said the exact same thing!! It’s happened just about every week! You always give me something to think about in a different way.❤
Move it to the middle.. If it’s not good then He’s not yet done! Thank you Pastor Steven.
The “Moses, Moses” moments are often pivotal times in life when you feel called or urged to take on a mission, make a change, or step out of your comfort zone with courage and readiness. Remember, just like Moses, you may feel anxious or inadequate, but what truly matters is taking action and trusting in your mission.

“I am THAT I am.” God is Jehovah Jireh because He is THAT need that you have today! When He is placed in the middle, everything else becomes peripheral. It doesn’t mean the periphery doesn’t matter; in fact, the only way the peripheral things of this life gain meaning is by keeping them peripheral and making God the center of your life.
Move HIM to the middle! Great word Pastor!
