Doors
What He opens no one can shut, and what He shuts no one can
open. I know your deeds. See, I have placed before you an open door that no one can shut. I know that you
have little strength, yet you have kept my word and have not denied My Name.
-- Revelation 3:7-13
This is part of Christ revelation to the churches. Notice
that He opens and shuts door that will be irreversible for anyone to open or
shut. He alone has the strength and power to accomplish this. Notice also, He
is addressing those who are faithful to His word and honors His Name.
If you are walking faithful with Christ, He will do the same
for you. He will open doors to you by His power. People, places and things you
desire and need, will be brought into your life. He will also protect and guide
you by closing doors that are hazardous to your life and your Christian walk.
This is God’s love and faithfulness in action. This is royal
treatment! As you know, not everyone receives such favor; only those who have
paid the price to be showered with such favor.
You may be wondering why you didn’t get that promotion or why
it didn’t work out. Why did your Boaz turn out to be Mr. wrong? Why haven’t you
accomplished your dreams you set out accomplish.
This it could simply be because you are not fully walking the
in the way that you should, or it could be that God is protecting you from even
yourself. Perhaps He has something greater down the road, so He must close all
other doors to send you through that special door.
There are variables to be considered, but one thing remains
true. It begins and ends with your walk with Christ. It is in direct correspondence
with your praise, worship, integrity, obedience, humility, seeking God and
everything else that is required of you and not doing things which are
forbidden.
I’m not talking about salvation. God has grace enough to
bring you into His kingdom. Jesus death, burial and resurrection accomplished
this. No’ I’m talking Favor and Blessing. Open doors and closed ones for
protection.
You have a choice. Jesus is waiting with His hands on the
doorknobs that lead to abundance and keeps you from disaster. Or you settle for
the third option, which is to remain in the hallway of mediocrity and mundane,
never tasting the beautiful blessing that God has behind those doors for you.
In the words of Kevin O Leary from one of favorite shows, The
Shark Tank, “What Are You Going To Do”?
God Bless
