MFM Mountain Top Life Daily Devotional 22 January 2019 By Dr. D.K Olukoya – Divine Opportunities
TOPIC: Divine Opportunities (Mountain Of Fire and Miracle Ministries, MFM Daily Devotional 22 January 2019)
FIRE SCRIPTURE: Luke 18:35-43
Bible In One Year: Exodus 1-3; Matthew 14:22-36
MEMORY VERSE: “As we have therefore opportunity, let us do good unto all men, especially unto them who are of the household of faith.” – Galatians 6:10
The MESSAGE:
God promotes and announces people by giving them opportunities. An opportunity is a chance God provides for an individual to get his destiny fulfilled, his lot improved and his glory revealed. While some miss out on their divine opportunities, some have been fortunate to use their opportunities so well and have written their names in the divine hall of fame and greatness. Bible characters like David, Nehemiah, Elijah, Peter, John and Paul, among others used the divine opportunities they had to change the course and story of their lives to the best.
Jesus asked to use Peter’s boat. Going by the frustration of having fished all night without catching anything, Peter would have refused to release his boat to Jesus but he did not. It was a divine opportunity that changed Peter’s life to the best forever. Every turning point anyone experiences is usually preceded and occasioned by a divine opportunity which the person utilised. Peter seized the divine opportunity heaven offered him and became a foremost apostle and one of the greatest Bible characters and kingdom builders in human history till date. Saul of Tarsus was persecuting Christians and kicking against the body of Christ. That was diametrically opposed to his divine destiny. How will he ever know and enter into God’s original plan for him? He needed a divine encounter and opportunity. One day, on his way to Damascus, heaven offered him a golden divine opportunity. The Lord Jesus Christ appeared to him. Saul of Tarsus did not miss that divine opportunity. He did not disregard the heavenly call and vision. He surrendered to the Lord, accepted Him and did His bidding. He went on to write two-third of the New Testament and is today one of the greatest Bible heroes.
God’s command that we share the gospel and win souls into His kingdom is an opportunity for us as believers. Beloved, each time you share the gospel and encourage sinners to accept Jesus Christ as their Lord and Saviour, you are offering them divine opportunities to become sons of God, heirs of the kingdom and make heaven. That is why the Bible says that soul winners are wise. Have you been availing yourself of divine opportunities? Do you know how to recognise such opportunities and avail yourself of them? You need the Holy Spirit to help you in these matters.
MOTIVATIONAL QUOTE:
SUCCESS IS WHERE PREPARATION AND OPPORTUNITY MEET.
PROPHETIC WORD:
May you not miss out in life.
