Pastor Mike Kai's first talk - last night notes

Talk #1 – Mike Kai

Judges 6,7 Gideon

Don’t let your present circumstance limit your vision.

1)   Gideon doing the wrong thing – wheat in a wine press

2)   Saw Incremental grow, but we need something new

3)   Bad circumstances two things grow

a.     liquor

b.     churches

Don’t allow your current condition to limit our potential.

1)   Angel comes and says, “Its time to get out of the wine press.”

2)   God sees you not as you are, but as you will be

3)   A sculpture sees the potential in a slab of a rock

4)   A coach sees an athlete as he will be, not as he is

5)   Mike was a divorced, single dad, working at American airlines

Take care of business before moving on

1)   God wants you to tear down the asher pole before we go forward

2)   You don’t have to inherit your parents stuff

Go with what you got because you have all that you’ll need

1)   Don’t be afraid to let some people go

2)   God says you have too many people

3)   Separate the self indulgent from the ones who care about others
