Open Doors
Let us therefore make every effort to enter that rest… Hebrews 4:11-16 We ask ourselves how much longer must we wait for the Lord when it is God who asks the same of us. Through Christ every door is made to be opened. This doesn’t mean that we have to walk through them all. We do however have to discern our gifts to understand which ones will draw us forward in Christ and not in some other direction. The good news is that even if we find our selves astray God’s grace and mercy awaits the repentant heart. Unfortunately, we won’t always walk through the right doors. Fortunately, our life in Christ is as much about what we believe as it is about what we do. This is the confidence we have in the Gospel; if we believe in the truth about the Gospel of Christ, then we must make every effort to walk in that truth. To walk in that truth, like Christ, is to walk in God’s rest.
Listen! I am standing at the door, knocking; if you hear my voice and open the door, I will come in to you and eat with you, and you with me. Revelation 3:20
The sacrifice of God is a troubled spirit; a broken and contrite heart, O God, you will not despise. Psalm 51:18
So now, O Israel, what does the LORD your God require of you? Only to fear the LORD your God, to walk in all his ways, to love him, to serve the LORD your God with all your heart and with all your soul, and to keep the commandments of the LORD your God and his decrees that I am commanding you today, for your own well-being. Deuteronomy 10:12-22
Thank you for this. It blessed me greatly as I discern my next step with Him.
Thank you and Many blessings along the way the friend.
Connects with a couple of prophesies/words of knowledge folks have gotten for me and some things the Lord has led me to directly . . . He’s on the move. Satan’s trying to knock me off track and attacking my health, finances, and more but he won’t win. Thanks!
Yes, walking in the truth is walking in peace. He does not keep secrets. If there is a door we should not go through He will warn us so we can walk in confidence. Thank you for this reminder.
You are welcome. Looking forward to following your blog.
