Opportunity in disguise
Does opportunities shoutout to you? Hey there, HEyeeyyyy I am your opportunity! Does this happen? The answer is NO. The Biggest Opportunities are usually the greateast problem in your life. They are always problems in disguise.
The anatomy of Opportunities
1. You need a momentum
You have to be always be on the move people. Something has to happen in your life. You need to keep moving so that will make you in position when the opportunity come.
2. Searching
We have to look for them. Apostle Paul went searching for the disciples of Jesus Christ. He went door to door. Look at KFC, Colonel Sanders he went 95 banks before any banks approved him of any loan. They search.
Walt Disney 3 times bankrupt. Nobody believe in him, not even his own brother believe that he is going to build his kingdom on a stupid mouse
3. Take advantage of his opportunity
When the sun is shining reach for your harvest. A door is of no value unless you go through it ! Did you open the door.
4. Recognising all big things start with small things.
You can find the biggest tree in the world, they begin in a seed in the palm of your hand. When you look into a seed, do you have the sight to see the greatest tree in them?
5. The harder you work the luckier you are.
When Jesus callout for his followers, they are all working, Peter was Fishing for a living out the sea when Jesus asked him to follow him. When God Calls out for Moses the prince of Egypt he is busy looking after sheeps. When God calls for King David he is busy shepherding. When Jesus call out to Paul, he was busy killing Christians and running down churches. They are all busy, sometimes even when you are doing things for the wrong reason, God knows it too.
Paul turns out the be the builder and founder of Gospel in most parts of Europe. Apostle Paul. You can see his church in Rome.
6. You have to be self sufficient
You have to be self-sufficient, you cannot be a Gold-medalist if you do not train it yourself. You can never Gold medal winner of the Olympic when you ask someone to train on your behalf. Do it YOURSELF! Suck it in and dont be a wimpy man/woman.
7. Go all the way
Don't give up, you may have a wonderful great start. But nothing is complete until it is done. Go all the WAY! Jesus went all the way, whipped -> stabbed -> humiliated-> Put to shame -> crucified -> died -> buried -> went to Hell -> Fought the Devil -> receive Victory for you and I -> and then he Resurrected.
He didn't walk down the cross like that :
Hey, I'm already dead, ok because I am the son of God, I am dead, but I can walk down the cross myself. Hellow People!!, see how cool am I.
He has to go all the way and finish like how God planned. We have to go all the way according to God's will to emerge victoriously. You know God says I am going to be a multi milliionaire. Thou I am not now but I believe in his promise. I am not going to Stop until I hit that mark. I am going to outreach in nations, touching lives, building homes for people. I am not going to stop until I do it. I am doing the job of Jesus in protecting Lives. I am, and I honor my prestige JOB IN THE MARKETPLACE to serve God Protecting Families, Investing in Life, and Giving my whole Life to Jesus so he can my hands/feet for his purpose to Love people.
I am definately in the Job God wants me to be in. Protect lives through Insurance. Protect your family because you love them. Invest Life and not death. Invest in Faith and not in Risk.
8. Overcome all obstacles
Tackle your problem, and be an overcomer. Your problems are designed to bring something out of you that you cannot do it any other way. The problems that you are facing now, is going to bring the Giant off you. The opportunity of a life-time only depends on life-span of that opportunity.
We are Giant slayers and we are mountain movers. and if you are waiting for perfect conditions to get things done, they are never going to get them done. The best learning stage and discovering the greatest in you, are opportunities disguised in the biggest problem in your life. They are your biggest blessings!! For if you decide to let these problems be unsolve, you just let the greatest opportunity and blessings walk off your life.
Make your choice now my friends and love ones. We can live a life full of colours and purpose. You can create dreams even at the age of 65 like colonel Sander Mr KFC. God wants to shine your world bright. There will be difficulties and problems along the path we walk. But God can reverse all situations and make all problems your greatest opportunities.
How many of you will want to know this great God who is always by own side? You can say this little prayer with me.
Dear God, let me experience you, let me see the light that will shine my path bright. Jesus, today I want to invite you into my heart. I want to leave all my problems into your hands. Let me see what you see, I want to recieve my blessings from you, walk with me let me see all my blessings of opportunities in the problems you put ahead of me. Jesus, let me encounter and know you more from today onwards as I am saved.
Be blessed. have a wonderful Sunday!
Ps. Thank you Pastor Phil for such a wonderful sermon message. I am so blessed by your words.
Pss. Maybe my private space is long forgotten in your memories, and you no longer flip into it anymore. You no longer frequent them as well as you used to do. You no longer read them anymore. Well, Smelly, you are so burdening in my heart and I just love you so much. But I guess I am the last person you will really listen to.
God you used me to touch and make a difference in the life of many others. Yet you gave me the toughest nut and biggest problem ever to crack. The man I love the most. I have to remind myself of the message I wrote today. The Biggest problem is the greatest opportunity of Blessings in Disguise.
I wish I could choose a better alternative, but God told me No. This is the best. Eh but I cant see them at all... Then God reply, you'll know it when the timing is here. Jesus at the back saying : Just trust me lah. Relax.
