YOU ARE AN OPPORTUNITY 



Now thanks be to God who always leads us in triumph in Christ, and through us diffuses the fragrance of His knowledge in every place.

II Corinthians 2:14 NKJV


Blessed be God who always leads us in triumph in Christ, and through us diffuses the fragrance of His knowledge in every place. This means that God spreads the effect of knowing Christ through us in every part of the world. If Christ is going to be known in anywhere in the world, it's going to be through us who believe in Him.


This means that we are the world's opportunity to experience Christ. We are their opportunity to hear the word. We are their opportunity to experience God's kindness and receive salvation from sins. We are their opportunity.


When we pray, and say Lord, please create opportunities for the unsaved to encounter the gospel and receive salvation, what we're actually saying is, "Lord, please help them meet us"! Because when they meet us, they should hear the word and be saved.


The opportunity for them is not outside of us. You're the opportunity for anyone in your world. As you pray for their hearts to be receptive to the gospel, also pray for yourself, to be bold to seize every moment that presents itself as an opportunity for the word to be shared. Because outside of us, the world will not know Jesus.


Prayer: I thank you dear Lord, for making me your vessel to spread your goodnews in every place. I pray for the hearts of men, that they be receptive to the truth, and they be transformed in Jesus mighty name. Amen.
