0:00.0	Hey, this is Stephen Ferdick. I'm the pastor of Elevation Church and this is our podcast.
0:06.4	I wanted to thank you for joining us today. I hope this inspires you. I hope it builds
0:10.8	your faith. I hope it gives you perspective to see God as moving in your life. Enjoy the
0:14.8	message.
0:15.8	Elevation, Elevation Church. Wow, wow, wow. So first of all what we're not going to is act

2:30.7	in Valentine and tell him, I know I'm anointed. The struggle that you overcome, reveal your anointing.
2:39.9	We know that the old one, David, worked not from the throne he sat on, but by the giant that fell
