Hey, this is Stephen Fertig. 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 as moving in

your life. Enjoy the message.

First Samuel chapter 17 verse 50, just one scripture today that I want to share

with you, but it's a good one. It says in first Samuel 17 verse 50, so David

triumphed over the Philistine with the sling and a stone. Without a sword, it is

hand.

He struck down the Philistine and killed him.

There's power in the mighty name of Jesus. In every war he wages, he will win.

So David triumphed over the Philistine and I'm not backing down from any giant with the sling

and a stone. Without a sword in his hand, he struck down the Philistine and killed him.

Would you look at your neighbor and sing my sermon title? Tell him, I know how this story

ends. Come on, tell your other neighbor the saved one. Tell him, I know how this story is.

Father, we thank you for your word, the power of it, and that he who began a good work

is faithful to complete it in Jesus name. Amen. You may take your seat. God bless you.

I know how this story ends because Holly and I have a rule in our marriage that when

she's telling me a story, if it's a negative story, then I need her to tell me the ending

before she gives me the details. Because sometimes she tells expanded stories. You like

I said that, that was real PC how I said that. That was really cautious how I said that.

She tells stories and puts in all the deleted scenes. It's the director's cut. But sometimes

I just need to know when she says today was a terrible day, I need to know how this ends.
