"Come, let us go." With God's help we too can be opportunistic!Today's Scripture:
Come, let us go.
1 Samuel 14:1
Come, let us go.
1 Samuel 14:1
Jonathan was the king's son. Like the other men in the army, he was to get his directions for battle from the king. But the king was afraid and so was his army. They all sat down under a pomegranate tree to consider their options for fighting the Philistines, who outnumbered them. But Jonathan had a notion. He and his assistant sneaked away from camp to survey the situation. He asked for God's direction in helping them identify a good opportunity to attack the enemy. When the moment arrived, Jonathan responded, "Come, let us go."
Jonathan was optimistic and opportunistic. He believed that with God's help, he could make a difference in the battle. He had a victor's attitude. But he did not react impulsively. He examined his situation and looked for the right opportunity. Then he seized the moment to succeed. God did help them win the battle. In fact, once his father the king saw the battle was under way, he led the troops to help fight.
You can take advantage of opportunities that others do not even see.
When you look at the glass of water and see it as half empty, view it as an opportunity to add fresh water to the mix. If God can enable two young men to battle an army of thousands and win, he can help you and I accomplish incredible feats in leadership.
Selah people' and friends target an opportunity that has lain dormant. Pray for God to show you creative ways to take full advantage of its possibilities. Then take a step of action and implement one of the strategies. Don't put it off like Jonathan when the moment arrives "Saddle up" and let's ride...Yee-Haw!!!
"Choose to start taking better advantage of the wonderful opportunities God reveals to you."
