Divine opportunities do not come by all the time, so when you recognize them, it is a good thing to ask God for help. However, you have to determine to overcome distractions, pleasures of sin, and evil demands. Recall that Adam and Eve lost their blessings and divine opportunities when they ate the forbidden fruit. Cain also lost his blessings and a divine opportunity when he killed his brother, Abel.
“8And Cain talked with Abel his brother: and it came to pass, when they were in the field, that Cain rose up against Abel his brother, and slew him. 9And the LORD said unto Cain, Where is Abel thy brother? And he said, I know not: Am I my brother’s keeper?”

Similarly, Joseph’s blessing, divine opportunity, and answers to his prayers came after his faithfulness to God and decision not to sleep with his master’s wife and to stand for righteousness at all costs.
“2And the LORD was with Joseph, and he was a prosperous man; and he was in the house of his master the Egyptian… 6And he left all that he had in Joseph’s hand; and he knew not ought he had, save the bread which he did eat. And Joseph was a goodly person, and well favored… 10And it came to pass, as she spake to Joseph day by day, that he hearkened not unto her, to lie by her, or to be with her. 11And it came to pass about this time, that Joseph went into the house to do his business; and there was none of the men of the house there within”
