Missing Opportunities

Opportunities to Surrender-

Everyday.

“Then he said to the crowd, “If any of you wants to be my follower, you must give up your own way, take up your cross daily, and follow me.” ‭‭Luke‬ ‭9:23‬ ‭NLT‬‬

Stressed. 

“Humble yourselves, therefore, under God’s mighty hand, that he may lift you up in due time. Cast all your anxiety on him because he cares for you.” ‭‭1 Peter‬ ‭5:6-7‬ ‭NIV‬‬

Short.

“And don’t be concerned about what to eat and what to drink. Don’t worry about such things. These things dominate the thoughts of unbelievers all over the world, but your Father already knows your needs. Seek the Kingdom of God above all else, and he will give you everything you need. “So don’t be afraid, little flock. For it gives your Father great happiness to give you the Kingdom.” ‭‭Luke‬ ‭12:29-32‬ ‭NLT‬‬

The Impossible. 

“Jesus replied, “What is impossible with man is possible with God.” Luke‬ ‭18:27‬ ‭NIV‬‬

Risks. 

“Now there was a certain disciple at Damascus named Ananias; and to him the Lord said in a vision, “Ananias.” And he said, “Here I am, Lord.” Acts‬ ‭9:10‬ ‭NKJV‬‬

Hurt.

Then Job replied to the Lord: “I know that you can do anything, and no one can stop you. You asked, ‘Who is this that questions my wisdom with such ignorance?’ It is I—and I was talking about things I knew nothing about, things far too wonderful for me. You said, ‘Listen and I will speak! I have some questions for you, and you must answer them.’ I had only heard about you before, but now I have seen you with my own eyes. I take back everything I said, and I sit in dust and ashes to show my repentance.”
‭‭Job‬ ‭42:1-6‬ ‭NLT‬‬

Sin.

“If we say we have no sin, we are fooling ourselves, and the truth is not in us. But if we confess our sins, he will forgive our sins, because we can trust God to do what is right. He will cleanse us from all the wrongs we have done. If we say we have not sinned, we make God a liar, and we do not accept God’s teaching.” ‭‭1 John‬ ‭1:8-10‬ ‭NCV

Victories.

“Every good gift, every perfect gift, comes from above. These gifts come down from the Father, the creator of the heavenly lights, in whose character there is no change at all.” James‬ ‭1:17‬ ‭CEB‬‬

Your Greatest Blessings.

“Some time later, God tested Abraham’s faith. “Abraham!” God called. “Yes,” he replied. “Here I am.” “Take your son, your only son—yes, Isaac, whom you love so much—and go to the land of Moriah. Go and sacrifice him as a burnt offering on one of the mountains, which I will show you.” Genesis‬ ‭22:1-2‬ ‭NLT‬‬ 

Yourself. 

“Jesus cried out in a loud voice, “Father, I give you my life.” After Jesus said this, he died.” ‭‭Luke‬ ‭23:46‬ ‭NCV‬‬‬‬
