When you go
to someone’s office and you see his door opened, something tells you, “You are
free to enter.” But on the other hand, if the door is locked, you would be
forced to lock and or ask someone what the protocol for entering is. The Bible
has much to say about open doors but many times – even as Christians – we seem
to face obstacles on our path and in our ministry. Blocked doors can be VERY
frustrating.
Open doors in
life mean opportunity, progress and promotion. Apostle Peter enjoyed it.
Apostle Paul did. God’s desire for each and every one of us is to enjoy open
doors. You aren’t just placed on this earth to stumble around in the dark
trying to find out what you should do. The God of the Universe is
interested in you. He has a plan for you; He has a pathway for you. The
Bible says in Proverbs 3:5-6 “Trust in the Lord with all your heart and
lean not on your own understanding; in all your ways acknowledge him, and he
will direct your paths.”
Even when it
feels like all doors are closed despite all efforts to have it opened, relax,
don’t fidget, Rev 3:8 says, “I have set before thee an open door, and no man
can shut it: for thou hast a little strength, and hast kept my word, and hast
not denied my name.” However, open door is not automatic, it has to be
provoked. Righteousness is one key that keeps one’s door permanently opened
while sin is a blockage. Lev 26:18-19 says, “And if ye will not yet for all
this hearken unto me, then I will punish you seven times more for your sins. And
I will break the pride of your power; and I will make your heaven as iron, and
your earth as brass.”
Do you want
to enjoy perpetual open door? Stay away from sin. As you do so, before you
knock on a door, it shall open in Jesus Name. Amen!
