TEXT:
And it came to pass after these things, that his master’s wife cast her eyes
upon Joseph; and she saith, lie with me. But he refused, and said unto his
master’s wife, Behold, my master wotted not what is with me in the house, and
he hath committed all that he hath to my hand Genesis 39:7-8. Thou shall be
over my house, and according unto thy word shall all my people be ruled: only
in the throne will I be greater than thou, and Pharaoh said unto Joseph, see, I
have set thee over all the land of Egypt. And Pharaoh took off his ring from
his hand, and put it upon Joseph’s hand, and arrayed him in vestures of fine
linen, and put a gold chain about his neck; And he made him ride in the second
chariot which he had; and they cried before him, Bow the knee: and he made him
ruler over all the land of Egypt. Genesis 41:40-43
Opportunity is a time
and season of announcing one. It is the set time of divine visitation. Psalm
103:13. There are times opportunity is present to us in disguise, but in it
lies a pathway for greatness. Genesis 39:7-8.
Favour brings us at the
realm of opportunity. But don't forget there are share responsibilities, that
is, your Spiritual antenna must be at alert to discern when the opportunity
will come to embrace. It is not by praying, but by spiritual alertment. When
you read account of Joseph in Genesis
39:7-9, he had the opportunity to lay with his Master's wife of course
there were nobody in Pharaoh's house except the two of them. Joseph knew the
art will mar his destiny he ran and refused to do such evil art which landed
him in the prison and there he encountered destiny by opportunity that present
itself in disguise announced him.
Opportunity is a time of
discovery, and not a moment given to observe ones mistakes. Until you are
nurtured in a specific field, you are not to be blame of error. Pharaoh had to
train and equip Joseph assignments he wants him to carryout in his and to his
people and for the fulfillment of God word, which He spoke to Abraham. Genesis 41:40-43.
Opportunity is a moment
of knowing your area of prowess, perfection even imperfection. When you notice
that area you go back to your drawing board, workout the skills God has
embedded in you to become whom He has ordained you to be, that's what it does
to us. When opportunity meets readiness, it becomes a testimony.
As a matter of fact every
day of our life present us opportunity, but often time we are inability to
decode when it comes. It doesn't give room for failure, rather improve our
skills. It is a moment of grooming or teaching which maybe your superior, peers
and subordinate. The opposite of opportunity is delay, which will definitely
come. Joseph told the chief butler after interpreting his dreams to remember
him when Pharaoh restored his position, but he forgot him. Genesis 40:23
HOW DOES OPPORTUNITY COMES

Be at alert. Genesis 39:11-13
Be at the right place at
