2 Samuel 2 | OPPORTUNITY KNOCKSMost people spend years waiting for a door to open.And when it finally does — when the moment that was supposed to come eventually shows up — the way they respond to it determines everything that follows. Not the opportunity itself. The response to it.2 Samuel 2 opens at one of the most significant turning points in one person's life. Everything that had been promised, everything that had been waited for, everything that had been delayed, resisted, and survived — suddenly became accessible. The door that had been closed was now open.And the first thing this person did was not walk through it.They asked.Here is what most people miss about this passage — the opportunity did not arrive without a decision attached to it. And the decision was not simply whether to take it. It was more specific than that. More directional. And the way the question was asked — and the specificity of the answer that came back — reveals something about the relationship between divine timing and human movement that most people in a season of open doors have never been shown.There is a detail in this passage about what happened first — before the movement, before the step, before any of the visible action began — that changes the entire meaning of what followed. Most people would have moved the moment the door opened. This person stopped.And then there is something else. Something this person did in the first hours of the opportunity — an act that had nothing to do with advancing their own position, consolidating what they had just received, or preparing for what was coming next. Something directed outward. Something unexpected from someone who had just received something they had waited years for.That something is the reason everything that came after it went the way it did.What was asked before the step was taken?And what does the first act of this opportunity reveal about what God is actually watching for when He finally opens a door you have been standing in front of?Press play — because OPPORTUNITY KNOCKS. And this message will show you exactly how to answer it when it does.Thank you for joining me today. Subscribe for daily teachings, morning prayer broadcasts, and live services.

The Bible talks about how lizards and spiders are weak but they are found in the king's palace. When life hits us hard and opportunity knocks, we get ourselves back up by looking to the Lord Jesus Christ. We turn friction into traction because there is an opportunity to be conformed into the image of Christ. The Bible says that we are new creatures in Christ and we live the resurrected life.

Today I want to talk about what happens when opportunity knocks. Many people pray for opportunities. Few people prepare for them. Recently, I found myself reflecting on how quickly life can change.One moment you're praying for open doors. The next moment you're deciding which door to walk through. Opportunities often arrive disguised as work. They arrive disguised as responsibility. They arrive disguised as things that stretch us beyond our comfort zones. The question is not whether opportunity will come. The question is: Will you be ready when it does? Listen and be encouraged #omenesa

Robin Devine has spent her life knocking on doors, sometimes literally, and finding opportunity on the other side. Raised by her grandmother, Robin learned early that hard work, honesty, courage, and instinct could take you places credentials could not. As a little girl, she sold lilacs and rhubarb door to door. As a young woman, she walked into an advertising agency with no portfolio, no experience, and talked her way into a job. By twenty-three, she was selling Checker automobiles out of a broken-down garage, turning old taxis into reverse status symbols. What follows is a remarkable conversation about grit, reinvention, and seeing value where others see nothing.  Her energy and passion are contagious as she shares her life story from advertising to automobiles, from Expo 86 to Canadian Tire, from Russian generals to Bestselling Books, Food banks, Shelters, and a Canada Watch she proudly markets with proceeds helping those in need. This episode is timeless. It is about agency and refusing to wait for permission.     You can also help support Canada's Food Banks and Shelters, by purchasing a special edition Canadian Watch.  https://www.timeisticking.ca/  

https://media.blubrry.com/thesuccessfulmindpodcast/media.blubrry.com/thesuccessfulmindpodcast/ins.blubrry.com/thesuccessfulmindpodcast/TSM725_MDM_Apr24_26.mp3   Client chaos in sales is something I’ve watched derail more deals, more teams, and more business relationships than almost anything else — and most people never even realize it’s happening. There are patterns playing out in your sales conversations right now that have nothing to do with strategy, pricing, or timing. And until you see them clearly, no tactic is going to fix them. Client Chaos in Sales: Why You Keep Getting Pulled Into the Drama Here’s the dynamic I see constantly: a prospect throws chaos at you — competing priorities, sudden emergencies, a dozen reasons why this moment isn’t right. And the natural response is to meet them there. To empathize, validate, and start problem-solving the drama instead of the actual decision. What most people don’t realize is that this is exactly what the other person’s subconscious is pulling for — not out of malice, but because it’s the only world they know how to operate in. A lot of us were raised in chaotic environments. We adapted to it, and that adaptation became our baseline. So when chaos enters a sales conversation, something familiar activates — and we step right in. Client Chaos in Sales: The Mindset Shift That Keeps You in the Problem-Solver’s Chair The way through is deceptively simple. You acknowledge the problem — just enough to show you heard it — and then you offer a clear path forward. You don’t step into their world. You open a door to a calmer one. The internal shift that makes this possible is learning to ask ‘how do I solve this?’ instead of ‘how do I respond to this?’ That single reorientation changes what you say, how you lead, and what you close. And it starts well before the sales conversation begins. Episode 61 – Building Killer Self Confidence Episode 324 – Be Pulled Into Success Episode 502 -Opportunity Knocks at the Door of Chaos HERE’S THE TRUTH:YOUR BUSINESS ISN’T BROKEN. YOUR MINDSET IS.You’ve built something real. You’ve got clients, revenue, maybe even a team. But every morning, you wake up feeling like you’re pushing a boulder uphill — working harder for smaller wins, watching others leap ahead while you grind in place. This May, I’m opening the doors to The Elite Mind — a proven daily practice that rewires the mental patterns keeping you stuck in the feast-or-famine cycle, and transforms your relationship with success from the inside out. We’ll strip away the self-sabotage, the fear of your own potential, and the unconscious limits you’ve accepted as “just how business is.” You’ll discover why strategy alone never works (and what actually does), and walk away with the mental framework that separates those who sustain success from those who chase it forever. Ready to stop working harder and start thinking differently? CLICK HERE to find out more!

In part one, we learned about David Tomblin, who owns over 200 rental properties in Milwaukee. But lawsuits brought by the city and major lenders could ultimately take those properties away. These lawsuits follow a long campaign by Common Ground, a nonpartisan advocacy organization, that united Tomblin's tenants against him. Today, we look at how Common Ground organized Tomblin's tenants, and how the Milwaukee City Attorney used his legal power to bring Tomblin to court. This is part two of “How to Evict Your Landlord,” produced by WUWM's Jimmy Gutierrez and Lake Effect's Sam Woods 

David Tomblin, founder of Highgrove Holdings, is facing lawsuits that could take over 200 of his Milwaukee properties. The legal trouble follows a campaign by Common Ground, which organized Tomblin's tenants to fight back against him.

What opportunity is God putting in front of you right now?In this message, Pastor John Huseman walks verse by verse through Luke 5 and reminds us that Jesus still meets people “on their worst day, in their worst moment.” When Simon feels like a failure after fishing all night with nothing to show for it, Jesus steps into his boat and invites him deeper, saying, “Put out into deep water and let down the nets for a catch.”Simon's response becomes the turning point of the story: “But because you say so, I will let down the nets.” And when he obeys, God does what only God can do. “They caught such a large number of fish that their nets began to break,” and the blessing was so big “they filled both boats so full that they began to sink.”This message will encourage you to trust God's timing, take the next step He's been putting on your heart, and believe that “every good thing comes from God.” Because when Jesus knocks, it is an invitation to more.

Have you ever gone through a day thinking to yourself, "What good thing can I do for people?" You'd be surprised how many opportunities you will find, if you have that kind of a frame of reference for your thinking, as you go on through a day.

I've seen it again and again—results explode the moment you go all in. Most people say they're committed, but they leave a back door open “just in case.” And that hesitation tells the universe: I'm not sure.Total Commitment and the Power of ChoiceEvery goal is a trade—you're trading life energy for what you want. Once you grasp that, you realize how much you control your outcome. You can't manifest halfway. When you choose total commitment, you remove doubt and double your speed.How Total Commitment Speeds ManifestationWhen half of you hesitates, the universe reads confusion. But when your energy is unified—no back door, no “maybe”—problems dissolve faster. You regulate your vibration, not your circumstances, and that's all it takes to see massive results.All In or Not At AllYou either will or you won't. Decide now. Everything responds to your decision and your willingness to make a total commitment to your vision. Episode 609 – Desire Points the Way, but Commitment Gets it DoneEpisode 502 – Opportunity Knocks at the Door of ChaosEpisode 393 – The Universe Won’t Hold Your Past Against You You are successful on paper… but why doesn't it feel like freedom?In February, I'm bringing together a group of driven entrepreneurs for a 2-day business intensive where we strip away the fear, resistance, and patterns that quietly cap your growth, and get you clear on your next breakthrough. Together, we'll uncover what's been holding you back, claim the freedom you've been chasing, and walk away with the clarity and courage to lead your business — and your life — on your terms. And because business growth isn't just about mindset, Steph Tuss is teaching a special marketing session on the latest business-building tactics that are working now.

"Is opportunity really always there—or do you have to be listening for it to knock?" That's the question Kent Hance poses as he opens this episode, setting the stage for a journey through Texas legends, political intrigue, and stories of resilience that only the best storyteller in Texas can deliver. In this episode, Kent Hance shares unforgettable tales from his time in the Lone Star State, weaving together personal anecdotes and historical insights. Listeners will meet characters like Fastball Walker, whose nickname outlived his real name, and CQ Brown, the first African American to head a branch of the U.S. military, whose rise through the ranks was marked by bipartisan respect and a unanimous Senate confirmation vote. Hance dives deep into the complexities of political appointments, revealing the behind-the-scenes battles between the White House and the Senate, and the personal toll these processes take. He reflects on the Supreme Court nomination wars, the brutal Kavanaugh hearings, and the shifting landscape of American politics. Notable moments include Hance's recollection of attending a state dinner with President Reagan and Anwar Sadat, and his friendship with the Crown Prince of Iran during his flying lessons at Texas Tech. Memorable quotes abound, such as: "Opportunity's always there. You gotta be listening for it to knock." "You can take a bad situation and make it something that's really positive." "LBJ will twist your arm so badly to get you to vote for something that you don't realize it didn't break your arm, it ruins your career." Themes of perseverance, the power of reputation, and the impact of political decisions on everyday lives run throughout the episode. Hance's storytelling brings history to life, making listeners feel as if they're right there in the room with presidents, generals, and Texas legends.
