Divine Opportunity

There are many walking around these days with the dim view of the future. Take for instance this Facebook post I recently noticed.

YOUR ATTENTION PLEASE!!! Due to budget cuts, the light at the end of the tunnel has been turned off!

This is probably the way many people feel these days. They don’t hold out much hope for the future. Maybe that is the way that you are feeling?

It is good to know that God has an unlimited budget. With him there is an abundance of hope. His promise is that he will be with us always and that the gates of hell will never prevail against his church. We walk by faith and not by sight. The world may seem like it is crumbling around us, but we know there is more than what we see with our eyes. God has a greater destiny for us than we could ever imagine. Yet, we become anxious when we see our short-sighted vision for the future begin to crumble. Your short-sided dreams begin to be replaced by God’s desires for you.

Our mission on earth is to help usher in the kingdom of God. The interesting thing about this is the more the world is hurting the more the door is opened to make this happen. The less hope people find in the world, the more and more they will turn to God. We are living in times when people are loosing hope in all the things that they have put their hope in for so many years. America is known as the land of opportunity. But so many are seeing less and less opportunities around us. Although we may see the possibility for human opportunity begin to fade, divine opportunities begin to come to light.

It is good to know God’s is not dependent on the world’s economy. He works with a whole different economy that only knows abundance. With God there is no such thing as scarcity. In fact the more we are pinched by the world’s economy, the more we will be touched by his abundance. As Jesus says, “Blessed are the poor in Spirit, for theirs is the kingdom of God.”
