You may have seen the programme where the budding entrepreneurs appear before a panel of judges to present their product, hoping to be given the opportunity to be backed by one of the millionaires. They then have to decide whether to take the opportunity they’re offered or not. They’re not compelled to take it, just given the opportunity.
I believe the Lord is saying the same thing to us. It might be an opportunity for a new job, or to start a new business, or to begin a new relationship, or to volunteer to help in some way. It might be a good deal in a shop the Lord has provided, to be at the right time and right place, or to partner with a ministry taking the gospel to people, and the choice will be ours.
You might have a few minutes to spare and it’s an opportunity to draw closer to Him, or to speak to someone about how good our God is to us, to share our faith, but we have to decide whether to take the opportunity or not.
There will be opportunities to be thankful and be glad we’re alive, thankful we belong to God, to smile at people because we know we’re cared for and loved by Him, opportunities to show His love.
This is a Rhema word from God and our verse reminds us to take every opportunity to do good, so as we go out today we can have that mindset and be on the look out for God’s divine opportunities and grab them before they pass us by.
Father, help us not to miss the opportunities You offer us. In Jesus name. Amen.😊
I’d be interested to hear what happens if you’d like to share in the comments in due course.😊
