'Opportunities' in the Bible
"Disbelieving that a day of evil will come, embracing opportunities to commit violence,
But now, having no further opportunities in these regions, I want to come to you, as I've desired to do for many years.
Therefore, since we have this ministry, just as we received mercy [from God, granting us salvation, opportunities, and blessings], we do not get discouraged nor lose our motivation.
Buy up your opportunities, for these are evil times.
Pray with unceasing prayer and entreaty on every fitting occasion in the Spirit, and be always on the alert to seize opportunities for doing so, with unwearied persistence and entreaty on behalf of all God's people,
Walk in wisdom towards those without, redeeming opportunities.
See to it that no one ever repays another with evil for evil; but always seek opportunities of doing good both to one another and to all the world.
