In this powerful message from Elevation Church pastor Steven Furtick, the central theme is unwavering faith in God's enduring power, encapsulated in the declaration: 'It still works.' Drawing from Exodus 4, Furtick unpacks the story of Moses—reluctant, fearful, and burdened by past mistakes—as a mirror for modern believers facing doubt, delay, and discouragement. He emphasizes that faith isn't the absence of fear or doubt, but the decision to act despite them. Using personal anecdotes, cultural references, and a touching testimony from a man saved during a crisis through a 10-year-old podcast, Furtick illustrates how God’s Word, even when delivered through outdated methods, remains effective. He challenges listeners to trust God’s timing, embrace their imperfect past, and continue praising and serving—even when they don’t feel like it—because the same power that turned a staff into a snake and parted the Red Sea still operates today. The message is a call to persevere in faith, knowing that God’s work is not stalled, even when it feels invisible.
Faith often means doing the right thing even when you're doubting or afraid.
God’s plan may seem delayed or illogical, but it still works in His time.
Your past mistakes don’t define your future if God is in charge.
Worship and prayer work even when you don’t feel them—faith is action, not emotion.
God uses old methods and imperfect tools to deliver powerful, life-changing messages.
