Not too long ago, I came across something someone posted on the Internet: an acronym for POOR.
POOR – Passing Over Opportunities Repeatedly
And that caught my attention.
Isn’t it true that many people are all talk and no action? I have heard people say things like, “I used to do..I used to…” And I asked, “So what happened?”
The usual response is one person blaming his or her spouse for their own inaction and refusal to step up and get to their desired level. Another response is that life happened and they just don’t think that anyone will buy whatever they have to offer.
Another response is that they just don’t know what to do!
Yet daily, they cry out to God and say, “Lord, Lord, rescue us. We are sinking.” He provides a boat, yet they refuse to enter because they don’t believe He sent it OR they want him to carry them into the boat. They don’t want to even try to take a bold step in any way.
This is my message for you today:
Never allow the devil to deceive you that it’s okay to pass over opportunities repeatedly. Poverty is NOT your portion.
ARISE and catch the train to your destination. The train platform isn’t coming to your front door. You have to move yourself to get there!
Are you working but still broke? Can’t pay the bills despite having a cool job? If you are, contact me. I can help you monetize your talents so that you can live your best life.
