HERE LATELY, MY LIFE HAS BEEN IN A CONSTANT STATE OF CHANGE. JUST ABOUT EVERY AREA OF MY LIFE HAS BEEN DRASTICALLY AFFECTED. I CAN REMEMBER A DAY, NOT ALL THAT LONG AGO, IN WHICH I WAS LOST, CONFUSED, DEFEATED AND BROKEN-DOWN. I HAD BURNED MY BRIDGES AND LIVED IN MISERY AND DEFEAT. THROUGH THE LOVE AND MERCY OF THE LORD, I AM NO LONGER THAT PERSON WHO LIVED SUCH AN UNHAPPY LIFE. THE LORD HAS SHOWN ME A NEW WAY OF LIVING AND HAS GIVEN ME A GLIMPSE OF THE HAPPINESS HE HAS IN STORE FOR ME. MY PAST EXPERIENCES OF HEARTACHE, SORROW, SIN, ANGER AND PAIN LED TO NOTHING BUT CLOSED DOORS. TODAY IS A DIFFERENT STORY.
WE HAVE ALL HEARD OR SAID, "GOD WORKS IN MYSTERIOUS WAYS." YES, HE TRULY DOES! QUITE OFTEN, WE COME UP ON CLOSED DOORS WITHIN OUR LIVES. NO MATTER HOW HARD WE TRY, WE CANNOT, BY OUR OWN POWER DO ANYTHING TO OPEN THESE DOORS. WE SOMETIMES ASK GOD REPEATEDLY TO FOR HELP AND EXPECT HIM TO ANSWER OUR PRAYERS. NO MATTER HOW HARD WE TRY, AS LONG AS WE ATTEMPT TO SOLVE OUR PROBLEMS ON OUR OWN, NOTHING WILL CHANGE. A CLOSED DOOR WILL SIMPLY REMAIN A CLOSED DOOR. THE CLOSED DOORS IN OUR LIVES ARE OFTEN GOD'S WAY OF TELLING US "NO!" HE KNOWS WHAT IS BEST FOR US. HE KNOWS WHAT WE NEED. HE KNOWS THE FINAL OUTCOME OF EVERY SINGLE ONE OF OUR PRAYERS. SOMETIMES WE HAVE TO ACCEPT GOD'S "NO" IN ORDER TO FIND HIS "YES!"
I AM SO THANKFUL THAT THE LORD HAS SEEN FIT TO START TELLING ME "YES." DOORS WHICH WERE ONCE SLAMMED SHUT HAVE BEEN RE-OPENED. THE LORD KNEW WHAT HE WAS DOING. EVERY CLOSED DOOR WAS CLOSED FOR A REASON. THROUGH FAITH IN HIS PROMISES AND BY KEEPING HIS WORD, GOD HAS REWARDED ME OPENLY. HE HAS CREATED NEW OPPORTUNITIES AND HAS GIVEN NEW DIRECTION TO MY LIFE. GOD DOES INDEED OPEN DOORS THAT NO ONE CAN LOSE AND WHEN HE OPENS A DOOR, NO ONE CAN CLOSE IT. IT IS A FACT THAT WHEN WE LIVE FOR GOD, HE SHOWERS US WITH SUPERNATURAL BLESSINGS. I WANT TO THANK MY GOD FOR ALL OF THE DOORS HE IS PRESENTLY OPENING IN MY LIFE. I ENCOURAGE OTHERS TO ALLOW HIM TO DO THE SAME FOR THEM AS WELL. IF HE DID IT FOR ME, HE CAN AND HE WILL SURELY DO IT FOR YOU.
REV 3:8 "I HAVE SET BEFORE YOU AN OPEN DOOR, AND NO ONE CAN SHUT IT"
