The Next Open Door


The bible says, “I know your works. Behold, I have set before you an open door, which no one is able to shut. I know that you have but little power, and yet you have kept my word and have not denied my name.” God opens doors of opportunity before us that no one is able to shut. But we have to realize, sometimes He also closes doors because He has something better in store.

We may see a logical opportunity, but just because it’s the logical way doesn’t mean that it’s God’s way. Just because it happened that way before doesn’t mean it’s going to happen that way next time. That’s why you have to stay open and keep trusting in God. If you’re narrow-minded and only look at the door behind you that’s been closed, you may miss the door He has opened in front of you!

Friend, when you are able to let go of your own agenda and trust God, He’ll make sure you see those open doors. The bible says that His words are what lights our path. Our attitude should always be, “God, I surrender all to You. Have Your way in my life. I trust Your timing. I trust You to do it Your way.” Then, step back and let Him reveal the next open door He has prepared for you.
