1 Perfect Conditions Stop watching the clouds, you’re not the weatherman!

2 In review of recent weeks… Our DESTINY Satan stealing our eggs (PURPOSE/DESTINY) Our goal: TO SHARE THE GOSPEL OF JESUS CHRIST WITH THE WORLD!

3 WAITING FOR PERFECT CONDITIONS

4 Ecclesiastes 11:4 (ESV) “He who observes the wind will not sow, and he who regards the clouds will not reap.”

5

6 The same goes for our FAITH! We could miss out on opportunities!

7 “But I go to church to grow before I share my faith with others…”

8 We strengthen our faith, but we are running in place if we never GO!

9 STAYGO VS.

10 Matthew 13:18-23(ESV) “Hear then the parable of the sower: When anyone hears the word of the kingdom and does not understand it, the evil one comes and snatches away what has been sown in his heart. This is what was sown along the path.

11 Matthew 13:18-23(ESV) As for what was sown on rocky ground, this is the one who hears the word and immediately receives it with joy, yet he has no root in himself, but endures for a while, and when tribulation or persecution arises on account of the word, immediately he falls away.

12 Matthew 13:18-23(ESV) As for what was sown among thorns, this is the one who hears the word, but the cares of the world and the deceitfulness of riches choke the word, and it proves unfruitful.

13 Matthew 13:18-23(ESV) As for what was sown on good soil, this is the one who hears the word and understands it. He indeed bears fruit and yields, in one case a hundredfold, in another sixty, and in another thirty.”

14 God = SowerWe = Seeds PATH= Some people don’t understand us and don’t receive us ROCKY= Some people hear and like what we have to say, but because there’s nothing developed between us, they fall by the wayside THORNY= Some hear us, but are so busy with life that nothing ever comes out of it GOOD SOIL= But some hear us, believe us, and receive us. And their lives are changed

15 Don’t just sow the seed…Be the seed!

16 The HOLY SPIRIT goes before you!

17 Acts 2:17 (ESV) “And in the last days it shall be, God declares, that I will pour out my Spirit on all flesh, and your sons and your daughters shall prophecy, and your young men shall see visions, and your old men shall dream dreams;”

18 The Holy Spirit is working all the time!

19 It’s our great advantage! The conditions are already perfect!

20 In conclusion… We all have a DESTINY, and by sitting around, Satan wins. We can’t be weathermen We must SOW and BE SOWN

21 Perfect Conditions Go chip in for birdie and the win!
