The Power Of Opportunity – 3

Apostle Grace Lubega

Ecclesiastes 9:11(KJV); I returned, and saw under the sun, that the race is not to the swift, nor the battle to the strong, neither yet bread to the wise, nor yet riches to men of understanding, nor yet favour to men of skill; but time and chance happeneth to them all.

The Power Of Opportunity - 3If you want to embrace the power of opportunity, never take lightly the man who gives you the slightest chance to express your potential.

The reason why some people miss out on their opportunities is because they ignore this simple but powerful principle.

Take the example of people in the workplace who are given assignments outside their scope of work and have rejected them simply because the tasks are not in their job descriptions. Out of this indifference, they have missed out on opportunities to learn and to grow.

There are people in ministry who have been asked to serve in one capacity or another and have trodden on such opportunities because they wanted the limelight and not the back door tasks.

By this alone, they turned their backs on greatness because they did not understand that every beginning is a door and one’s faithfulness in the little promotes them to the next level.

How about the people you interact with? Some in abusing the authority of their bosses have turned their destinies in the wrong direction. Others by neglecting instructions from their spiritual authorities have scorned at the spirit of greatness and shut the doors of their opportunities.

Respect every beginning and the man who gives it to you. Do everything you are tasked to do as though it is the greatest task you will ever perform. Serve with zeal and fervency.

With this attitude, nothing on the surface of the earth can keep you from your God given destiny.

Glory to God!

GOLDEN NUGGET:

If you want to embrace the power of opportunity, never take lightly the man who gives you the slightest chance to express your potential.

PRAYER: Loving Father, I thank you for this great wisdom. I receive it with all humility and embrace it as the standard of my life. I give honour where honour is due and treat with respect those you have placed above me. Thank you for every opportunity that comes my way. I embrace it with understanding and serve with diligence. To the glory of your name, Amen.
