Hey Warriors, it's Matthew Adams here with "The Power Of God's Whisper Podcast." I've been pondering doors lately, not just the physical ones, but the metaphorical doors of opportunities, decisions, and life's twists and turns. And guess what? Sometimes, God's voice is resonating in the creaking hinges and echoing through those closed hallways.
Scripture: "What he opens, no one can close; and what he closes, no one can open." REVELATION 3:7
Life is a maze of countless doors. Some swing wide open, while others slam shut in our faces. And while doors can symbolize myriad possibilities, they also represent God's divine direction. But how do we discern His voice amid the deafening noise of life's choices?
Point 1: Doors Don't Dictate; They Direct.
The state of a door doesn't determine God's will. An open door isn't an automatic "go," and a closed door isn't always a "no." Just like the Israelites at the Red Sea, sometimes God calls us to what seems impassable. But His power makes a way when there seems to be none.
Point 2: Discernment is in the Details.
When facing multiple open doors, it can feel overwhelming. But God isn’t a God of confusion. When He opens more than one door, He also provides discernment to choose wisely. It's crucial to lean into Him, seek wisdom, and be patient. Let His voice guide you, even if it means waiting by the door for a while.
Point 3: Trust in God's Perfect Timing.
Our timing isn't always aligned with God's, and that's a good thing! His panoramic view of our lives ensures that every door's opening and closing serves a divine purpose. Even when our impatient hearts yearn to push forward, His voice may beckon us to wait, promising that His timing is perfect.
Conclusion:
Every door we face, open or closed, presents a chance to hear God's voice, to discern His will, and to align our steps with His. So as you stand before the doors of life, be still, listen closely, and let Him guide you through or steer you away.
Call to Action:
This week, take a moment to stand before the doors in your life. Pray, seek God's guidance, and listen intently for His voice. Is there a door you've been trying to force open, or one you've been too scared to approach? Surrender them to Him and let His voice lead you.
Prayer:
Lord, thank You for the doors You open and those You close. We trust in Your perfect timing and direction. Give us discerning ears to hear Your voice and bold hearts to walk in Your will. Even when we're unsure, remind us that You're sovereign, and Your plans for us are perfect. Amen.
Thank you for joining me, Matthew Adams, on "The Power Of God's Whisper Podcast." May we always seek God's voice amid life's many doors and walk faithfully in His direction. Blessings to you all, and until next time, keep listening for His whispers.
