Make the Most of the Day’s Opportunities
As long as it is day, we must do the works of him who sent me. Night is coming, when no one can work.
- John 9:4
Jesus went through life with a clear purpose: to honor God in everything He did. He knew His time on earth was limited and made the most of it. He healed, taught, loved, worshiped the Father, cared… Jesus lived each day focused on the Father’s will, doing the work for which He came.
God also created each one of us with a purpose and wants us to live in friendship with Him. Our Lord not only desires to bless us, but also to bless others through our words and actions. Are we making the most of the opportunities presented to us? Do we honor God in everything we do?
Teach me to do your will,
for you are my God;
may your good Spirit
lead me on level ground.
- Psalm 143:10
Pray to God to help you make the most of the time He gives you. Pray for His direction in your life, so that you may always live a joyful life of service to the Lord, within His purpose for you.
The night will come when you can no longer work. Today you can do the works God has called you to do. Make the most of the opportunities presented to you this day and do everything for the glory of your Lord and Savior, Jesus Christ.

If you feel like you're at rock bottom, cry out to the Lord
Do you feel trapped? Can’t get out of a problem? Then cry out to God for help! The Bible compares our problems to a pit full of mud. Whoever falls into the pit becomes stuck and can’t get out on their own. But God has the power to lift a person out of the pit and place them on a firm and secure rock.
I waited patiently for the Lord;
he turned to me and heard my cry.
He lifted me out of the slimy pit,
out of the mud and mire;
he set my feet on a rock
and gave me a firm place to stand.
- Psalm 40:1–2
God always listens to and helps those who place all their hope in Him. If you find yourself at the bottom of the pit, cry out to God! He is the firm and secure rock you can lean on in any situation.
Truly my soul finds rest in God;
my salvation comes from him.
Truly he is my rock and my salvation;
he is my fortress, I will never be shaken.
- Psalm 62:1–2
Truly he is my rock and my salvation;
he is my fortress, I will not be shaken.
My salvation and my honor depend on God;
he is my mighty rock, my refuge.
- Psalm 62:6–7
God lifts you up, He brings you out of the pit and sustains you. Hold on to Him in the midst of your problems and difficulties. He will never let you go!

Day Before Yesterday's Word
Word of the Day: Do you know what it means to be a Christian?
Many people go to church and believe in God. But being a Christian is more than that. A True Christian believes that Jesus Christ died for their sins and rose again to give them eternal life. They repent of their sins and dedicate their entire life to Jesus. When this happens, the Christian receives Jesus into their heart and has a new life!
9 If you declare with your mouth, “Jesus is Lord,” and believe in your heart that God raised him from the dead, you will be saved. 10 For it is with your heart that you believe and are justified, and it is with your mouth that you profess your faith and are saved.
Romans 10:9-10
So, if you haven't had a real encounter with Jesus yet, pray and ask Him to become the Lord and Savior of your life. Confess your failures, everything you've done and know is wrong. Talk to Him and receive His love and forgiveness. Christ is waiting with open arms for you to come to Him. Don't let another day pass without surrendering your life to God! In Him, you will find true life.
For the wages of sin is death, but the gift of God is eternal life in Christ Jesus our Lord.
Romans 6:23
Remember all that Christ did for you, his death on the cross, his love for you. With all this in mind, have you dedicated your life to Jesus?
