When God-Opportunities Come

For a wide door for effective work has opened to me, and there are many adversaries. –1 Corinthians 16:9 ESV

You are not a quitter! Winning is in your DNA. Before you were born, you were destined for greatness. Don’t stop now. You need to be the person God designed you to be. Get up and take your rightful place.God has already redeemed the time for you. He is right there with you, cheering you as you go. Hear Him now: “You can do it, My child. You are already victorious through My righteous right hand. I destined you to win.”Every battle won’t be easy, but the struggles you face will be worth it. They are present to strengthen your resolve, to teach and train your hands to war. There is a fighter in you. Fight until you see victory. Fight on, knowing you are never alone.

Ask God to give you the courage to say, “Yes” when opportunities come your way and the wisdom to say “No” to the ones that won’t bring God glory.

Ask the Holy Spirit to increase your confidence so you can boldly step forward when God-opportunities come your way.

Barbara was a wife, mother, and grandma who sought to love the LORD with all her heart, soul & strength. She has authored several books for adults and children. She has enjoyed mentoring other writers and seeing them turn their manuscripts into published masterpieces for God's glory. She believed that every person has a God-story within them to be told and shared. Barbara passed away peacefully in November 2023, but Bayside continues to remember and honor her legacy by sharing devotionals written by her in order to inspire and encourage others.
