"When thou sittest to eat with a ruler, consider diligently what is before thee:" (Proverbs 23:1 KJV)
We consider and use diligence when it is for our advantage or if we will gain from it. Some people may not even think of sitting with some influential or wealthy and powerful person. What could be the feelings of those who had a face to face encounter with the greats of the century in a dinner or a palace? What would be your mind set if that opportunity to sit with such person will pass your way?
Esther had the opportunity to sit with the mighty and ruler of the land, she grabbed the opportunity and made an impact. (Esther 2) The prophet Daniel was given the same blessing of sitting with the king. Daniel became a testimony of God's grace. (Daniel 1:8- 20) When Nehemiah was serving the ruler, the king; God placed him there for a purpose. Check and read Nehemiah chapters one and two. God use that open door to help his people in their deepest need. God has a purpose for you- be diligent!- By Ely Roque Sagansay
