Have you ever failed to take advantage of a great opportunity? Later on, you feel bad as you realized what you missed out on. Ephesians 5:16 (TPT) says: “Take full advantage of every day as you spend your life for his purposes.” Everywhere you look, you can see how people are trying to take advantage of you. You can see it in commercials where corporations are incessantly trying to sell you something. You can see it in the daily texts and emails promoting every kind of product or service. Even some of our family try to take advantage of us. 2 Corinthians 2:11 confirms that satan also attempts to take advantage of us: “Lest Satan should take advantage of us: for we are not ignorant of his devices.” It’s time that you realize that God has given us discernment and wisdom to be able to take advantage of every day and maximize the resources and relationships that He has blessed us with for His glory. This will allow us to be pleasing to Him, and we could also be effective ministers where He has rooted us. Determine today to not allow the enemy to take advantage of you. Instead, you take advantage of every opportunity. The Holy Spirit will show you how to do so as you seek Him and ask for daily wisdom.
