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.

We're excited because, write this down, favor flows from strange places.

It really does.

One time the children of Israel were in the desert and water came out of a rock.

That's weird.

You've had God do something for you but not through the person that you expected him to do it through? You ever had God be good to you through somebody that you weren't even good to?

And then somebody you were good to wasn't good to you.

And it's almost like God, it's almost like he wants to challenge your attachments.

So he'll keep on moving around his supply and springing up from different places so that

you don't camp out where he called you to pass through.

And that's why sometimes you get frustrated.

But favor can flow from frustration.

Sometimes you have to get down to the bottom of something to find God there.

My study has been like that.

It was kind of weird.

Can I tell y'all something that I didn't tell any of the other experiences?
