Pastor Femi Paul taught on the subject How Opportunity Works at our Interactive Midweek Service, emphasising that opportunities are often hidden in plain sight and require spiritual perception and intentional observation to recognise. Drawing from Jeremiah 17:6, he reminded the church that it is possible for good and opportunity to arrive without being seen. Jesus Himself declared, “I am the Way,” establishing that opportunities are often doorways disguised as ordinary moments. Through the case study of Acts 12, we saw that divine deliverance and advancement can occur quietly, without noise or drama, yet demand alertness and responsiveness.
PFP highlighted indecision, hesitation, laziness, overconfidence, pain, and self pity as key tools the enemy uses to steal opportunities. Doors of opportunity often open quietly and require perception, not noise, to be recognised. He charged everyone not to judge 2026 by past experiences, nor to project pain or need when brought into proximity with greatness. Like Joseph, we are to present our gifting, capacity, and readiness. Opportunity favours those willing to prepare, adjust, step out of comfort zones, and act wisely in the moment God provides.
Confession: Father, I receive eyes to see and wisdom to seize every opportunity You place before me. I will not miss my kairos moments through delay, fear, or distraction. I am prepared, perceptive, and ready to act wisely in 2026, in Jesus’ name. Amen.
