THE MIRACLE OF OPEN DOORS
“I know your works. See, I have set before you an open door, and no one can shut it; for you have a little strength, have kept My word, and have not denied My name”(Revelation 3:8,NKJV).
Underdtaning Open Doors
God’s open door of grace offers mercy, anointing & abundance. Trust Him & stay committed to His word.
The Open Door Of Grace
God says to you, “See, I have set before you an open door!” This is an open door of grace. You did not earn it nor could afford it. It was extended to you as a testimony of God’s mercy. Your key qualification here is your lack of strength or wherewithal to earn it without God – “for you have a little strength.” Those who acknowledge they have little or no strength to fight the battles of life alone are wont to depend on God and make much of His grace.
Paul testifies, “But by the grace of God I am what I am, and His grace toward me was not in vain; but I laboured more abundantly than they all, yet not I, but the grace of God which was with me” (1 Corinthians 15:10). God’s grace is never for the highest bidder but always only for the humble seeker. The more dependent one is to God, the more grace avails for him. The door of grace is not opened for the strongest but for the humble “for God resists the proud but gives grace to the humble”(1Peter
The Miracle of Grace
You must be willing to serve God without reservation in this day of His power. The nations in view here mean tribes and tongues of people; that is people in their language grouping and dialects. This could mean your village, your clan or your kindred. You must plan to make sure that you personally take the gospel to your people in this year of God’s power. God’s subsisting desire is for the earth to be filled with the knowledge of His glory as waters cover the sea (Habakkuk 2:14). As we begin this year, let us do so reflecting on this all important assignment God has given to us. This is our year of Victorious Faith –not faith for bread and butter merely, but faith for the Kingdom advancement.
As we seek the growth of the kingdom of God, He will cause all the bread and butter that we crave for to be readily supplied to us in overflowing proportion. Lay out your plan now on how to win your family, friends and village for Christ. Present it before God in prayers and faith will be born in you for its execution. God will raise the work force to go with you. He will invigorate you with grace and renew your strength each day like the morning dew. The Message Bible rendering of our text reads, “Your people will freely join you, resplendent in holy armour on the great day of your conquest, Join you at the fresh break of day, join you with all the vigour of youth” (Psalm 110:3).
God will cause His word to come to pass as you step out in faith to conquer your world for Him in Jesus name. Happy New year!
