Responding to Our Opportunities – Dr. Charles Stanley

How do you usually respond to the opportunities God gives you? The Lord may prompt us to help the needy, begin new jobs, take mission trips, or share the gospel with our neighbors. However, sometimes we fail to discern God-given chances to serve because we see them as obstacles or interruptions to our lives.


In this message, Dr. Stanley explains how the Good Samaritan willingly stopped to help a dying person—even though it cost him time, energy, and money—because he recognized the encounter as a God-given opportunity. His godly response revealed his devotion to the Lord. Learn how we, too, reveal our spiritual condition by the way we respond to the opportunities He sends.

I love this pastor he is an instrument of God, but I believe to have a true intimate relationship with the lord you must read the bible, read it in the light everyday. Reading the bible along with the words of great pastors like the good Dr Stanley will give you a better understanding of what God wants and expects of you. Pray everywhere, pray for others and God bless you reading this.
