OPEN HEAVENS DAILY DEVOTIONAL FOR TEENS AND CHILDREN SUNDAY 20TH MAY 2018: SEEING OPPORTUNITIES

MEMORISE: Love not sleep, lest thou come to poverty; open thine eyes, and thou shall be satisfied with bread. Proverbs 20:13

Please read: 2 Kings 4:1-7

MESSAGE:
Opportunities are the raw materials that must be processed in order to get to your ultimate destination. Anyone who does not take advantage of the opportunities they have can never fulfil destiny. Open Heaven 21 May 2018

One secret of outstanding people is their ability to identify opportunities when they see them. Obeying the instructions of your parents provides you with numerous opportunities to stand out in the community.

Similarly, what you already have could provide you with the opportunity you need to reach your goals. Do you know that the talent that will bring you to the limelight is already in you?

On the other hand, you may need to enroll for a course or acquire more skills or training to make you proficient. What do you have? You can use what
you have to get what you need or desire. Ask God to open your eyes today, and take advantage of the opportunities you see.

PRAYER POINT:
Lord, open my eyes to the opportunities around me.

Hymn 1
1. My faith looks up to Thee,
Thou Lamb of Calvary,
Saviour divine!
Now hear me while I pray,
Take all my guilt away,
Oh, let me from this day
Be wholly Thine!

2. May Thy rich grace impart
Strength to my fainting heart,
My zeal inspire!
As Thou hast died for me,
Oh, may my love to Thee
Pure, warm, and changeless be,
A living fire !

3. While life’s dark maze I tread,
And griefs around me spread,
Be Thou my guide;
Bid darkness turn to day,
Wipe sorrow’s tears away,
Nor let me ever stray
From Thee aside

4. When ends life’s transient dream,
When death’s cold, sullen stream
Shall o’er me roll;
Blest Saviour, then in love,
Fear and distrust remove;
Oh, bear me safe above,
A ransomed soul!
