Topic: THE GIFT OF OPPORTUNITIES
Biblical Text: ‘(for he saith, I have heard thee in a time accepted, and in the day of salvation have I succoured thee: behold, now is the accepted time, behold, now is the day of salvation)’. [2 Corinthians 6:2]
There is a story of a young man who wished to marry the farmers beautiful daughter. The father of the girl told him, son, I am going to release three bulls, one at a time. If you can catch the tail of any one of the three bulls, you can marry my daughter. The young man was happy, this will be easy he thought! The young man stood in the pasture awaiting the first bull. The barn door opened and out ran the biggest meanest looking bull, he decided he will step aside believing he had a better chance at one of the next two bulls. The barn door opened again, he had never seen any bull so big and fierce. Again, he quickly stepped aside believing the last bull will be the best choice. The barn door opened the third time. A smile came across his face, it is a little weakest bull he had ever seen. As the bull came running, he positioned himself and jumped at the exact moment. He grabbed..but the bull had no tail! There are two major opportunities God has given to us believers, the opportunity of salvation and the opportunity to do exploits. Quite a number of people keep postponing the day of their salvation until they run short of opportunities. Similarly, when the opportunity to do exploit was presented to Joseph, he took it. Do not waste the gift of opportunities that God is bringing your way. Maybe today is another opportunity presented to you to be saved, so you can have the opportunity to do exploit just like Joseph. Accept Jesus into your life today, do not delay any longer!
KNOW IT ∞ God will always bring opportunities your way, utilize them, do not waste them.
READ IT ∞ Hebrews 9:27, Genesis 41:9-14, Matthew 20:30
PRAY IT ∞ Father, thank you for the opportunity of salvation you have given unto me; forgive me of my sins and accept me into your fold in Jesus Name.
BIBLE IN ONE YEAR ∞ 1 Samuel 14-16
