Memory Verse
“I returned, and saw under the sun, that the race is not to the swift, nor the battle to the strong, neither yet bread to the wise, nor yet riches to men of understanding, nor yet favour to men of skill; but time and chance happeneth to them all.” (Ecclesiastes 9: 11)
Focus: “Then he said, Go, borrow thee vessels abroad of all thy neighbours, even empty vessels; borrow not a few.” (2 Kings 4: 3)

When the widow of one of the sons of the prophets reached out to Elisha for help, he instructed her to borrow vessels from her neighbours and pour her oil into the vessels. The oil eventually kept flowing until all the vessels were full. The oil needed space in order to multiply, and she got that ‘space’ from neighbours. That woman had a blessing of multiplied oil, and she got the opportunities (vessels) for her oil to flow.
Friend, hear me as I hear the Lord: you shall have massive opportunities for the expression of what you have in you. You shall have massive opportunities for impact; you shall have massive opportunities for increase; you shall have opportunities for your ideas to become reality; you shall have opportunities for your business to thrive against all odds; you shall have opportunities to become more; you shall have opportunities to rise higher.
That woman had just a pot of oil, but what she got from her neighbours were vessels. So the opportunities she got were bigger than what she had. Hear me as I hear the Lord: your opportunities shall be bigger than what you have. You shall have more than you planned for. You shall have opportunities that will give you results you have never had before. You shall have opportunities for expansion and advancement.
Hear me as I hear the Lord: it will never be said that you had capacity but lacked opportunity. It will never be said that you had what it takes to hit mega targets but lacked opportunity to hit the said targets. It will never be said that you had no space to advance and succeed. It will never be said that what you have in your hands isn’t needed by your generation. You will never lack opportunities.
Get set: just as Elisha gave a word and the neighbours of that woman provided opportunities, by the word of the Lord, your opportunities are coming.
Declaration
I have mega opportunities for increase and advancement, in Jesus’ name!
