IDENTIFY YOUR OPPORTUNITIES.

I should have rounded up the sub-topic: Opportunities but I am getting more than I can pen down which I believe is for you.
Favorable conditions abound I discussed with you last week for those who love God(their Strength) and those who operate in their calling (business wise) but these words alone cannot help identify opportunities when they come!

How will i identify/recognize Opportunities?

I want to tell you I am also learning a bunch as I'm penning down these words. I confess to you they are never the words of my head nor hands but pure inspirations of God!

Opportunities abound around you but they are always on disguise! How do I mean?

Gold in its crude is always in disguise so is Crude oil, So opportunities hide under troubles, trials and temptations. You can tell what it takes to extract crude and gold because I know you are aware of how these two invaluable natural resources are buries deep down in the ends of the earthen- So are your opportunities!

Favorable conditions do not birth favorable conditions, Unfavorable conditions does!- Oluwatobi Oshunbiyi.

Permit me explore this sub-topic with this biblical passage:
Daniel 2:1-49

Its not our Biblical exposition day so I'm be conscious of that.

In the passage above, the king had a dream which he forgot, and he called upon the magicians, astrologers, sorcerers and chaldeans to say the dream and interpret it but you can tell that is impossible!

How can I tell your dreams even if I can interpret it?

It was on and on till a decree was made in Verse 13 that they all will be killed, the wise men inclusive. The man Daniel identified his opportunity so fast, he made inquiries why the decree is so hasty from the king and went in speaking to the king asking for time(verse16).

Nugget 1: Opportunities are hidden beneath trials, troubles and temptations by nature, what you need is to identify them by making inquiries and subject them to time. Even gold and crude are subjected to time; refining and fractional distillation.

Nugget 2: Daniel went home and made this known to his companions(Verse 17).
Who are your companions? Who are your external Strength??
I discussed with you under weaknesses that you should avoid being threatened by your external strengths- those your weaknesses have attracted to you! They cannot take the glory nor credit, they will just be part of your success process speeding up the rate.

Nugget 3: when the two aforementioned are being put in place, results come.
Alas! The secret was revealed to Daniel in a Night vision. How much of the Night do you maximize?

Then secret(dream and interpretation) was revealed to the king and this made Daniel a great man(Verse 48). The king gave him many great gifts and made him ruler over the whole Province of Babylon.

To Identify your Opportunities:
(a) Be ready for the Opportunity, they come as challenges

(b) Make inquiries about what you see as an opportunity

(c) Do not be defensive about your external strengths- You are made to relate

(d) Use your Strengths(internal)- God and your gifts because you saw the opportunity, its you God will also reveal the secrets to.

(e) Opportunities are always solutions to eradicate problems. Apply what you have gotten(secrets) even in the un-favorable conditions to reveal the favorable- A great You!

Do not be scared to proffer the Solutions you have because that is the dream the world is looking for. Do remember you have got the strength too, both the Internal and External- Companions and business partners.

Good Morning Monday Digest Readers,
Happy New Month and have a nice week ahead.

THE 7 DISPENSATIONS IN THE BIBLE

Dispensationalism is a method of interpreting history that divides God’s work and purposes toward mankind into different periods of time. Usually, there are seven dispensations identified, although some theologians believe there are nine. Others count as few as three or as many as thirty-seven dispensations.  In this article, we will limit ourselves to the seven basic dispensations found in scripture.

3 CATEGORIES OF SPIRITUAL GIFTS

Lets move on; The Apostle Paul speaks of the variety of spiritual gifts : “Now there are diversities of gifts, but the same Spirit. And there are differences of administrations, but the same Lord. And there are diversities of operations, but it is the same God which worketh all in all. . . . But all these worketh that one and the selfsame Spirit, dividing to every man severally as he will” (I Corinthians 12:4–11).

DID JOHN THE BAPTIST REALLY EAT INSECTS(LOCUST)?

His name was divinely given. It was to be “John” ( Luke 1:13 ), which derives from a Hebrew term signifying “Jehovah is gracious.” He was known familiarly as “ the Baptist ” (bearing no relation to the modern sect), which simply means “an immerser , one who administers the rite of immersion” ( Matthew. 3:1; 11:11; .. ). The Jewish historian Josephus even refers to John by this designation (Antiquities 18.5.2). The importance of John in the divine scheme of things probably is summed up best in the testimony of Jesus himself. “ Among them that are born of women there has not arisen a greater than John the Baptist ” ( Matthew 11:11 ). Luke does say of John: “ And the child grew, and waxed strong in spirit, and was in the deserts till the day of his showing unto Israel ” ( Luke 1:80 ).  This desert (or deserted) area “stretches from Jerusalem and Bethlehem eastward some 20 miles down to the Jordan River and th e Dead Sea.” It is “a barren region of rugged hills and valleys” (Earle, 30

DISCERNING THE MOVE OF GOD

Acts 2:17 [17]And it shall come to pass in the last days, saith God, I will pour out of my Spirit upon all flesh: and your sons and your daughters shall prophesy, and your young men shall see visions, and your old men shall dream dreams God wants to move again and He needs a lot of vessels. God is not trying to repeat the same thing. He does not fail so He does not repeat. He only uses a familiar operation; a familiar move to men to progress the birth of The revival. Christianity(The Sphere of Religion) cannot export and empty itself into other spheres of influence, Men have to be exported into these spheres and the only way men will be exported is when we discern what God is trying to do and position ourselves for these moves. Our generation has to understand the synchronization between the Cyclical and the Acyclical move of God. We need to understand how these dimensions sync into each other to birth the revival.

KAIROS: THE MYSTERY OF TIME

At the very beginning of Jesus’ earthly ministry  Jesus tells of a great opportunity: God’s kingdom is within our reach. To enter the kingdom, however, we must go through a process of REPENTANCE and BELIEF. Mark 1:14‭-‬15 KJV‬‬: Now after that John was put in prison, Jesus came into Galilee, preaching the gospel of the kingdom of God,  And saying, The time is fulfilled , and the kingdom of God is at hand: repent ye, and believe the gospel. Through this process we learn how: - To lay down our lives - Pick up the cross - Follow Jesus into the kingdom These three highlights aren’t steps but a circle that represents our Journey into the kingdom of God and time: the kairos moments in our lives which is the portal through which we enter into Kingdom living. What is a Kairos Moment?  A portal (access) through which we enter into dimensions of results. It is a moment and moments defines time just like seasons define destiny. Eg: Jesus’ death on the cross was not a last-ditch
