Sermon Notes : The Power of a Place

Acts 1:4-9;2:1-5
• God uses people in our lives.
• The environment you place yourself in matters.
• The potential in side of you matters, but a lot of the things God has called you do do have less to do with you potential and more to do with where you are placed.
• What determined the outcome of the seed in Matthew 13 was where it landed.
• The places you’re in can accelerate and grow you or can squander and starve you.
• Into a life giving environment.
• Put yourself in a place where God is doing miracles.
• Many of us are limited not by potential but by place.
• God will force you out of a comfortable place.
• Places where you find yourself waiting are places of preparation.
• Use your gifts not to serve yourself, but others.
• What God put in your life wasn’t just for you.
• God is preparing your for what he’s prepared for you.
Ephesians 2:10
• Stay in the last place God told you to be.
• He hasn’t forgotten about you.
• God’s provision is connected to a place.
• He puts his provision where you’re supposed to be.
Luke 15:17
• Sometimes we get so used to being full that we forget what its like to be hungry so we drift away.
• The greatest gift from God is his presence.
