THE POWER OF WALKING THROUGH GOD’S OPEN DOOR

“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. For I, the Lord your God, will hold your right hand, saying to you, ‘FEAR NOT, I WILL HELP YOU.’”
(Isaiah 41:13; Revelation 3:8)

Praise and thanks be to the Lord – we serve a God that not only opens doors of opportunities for us, but will also hold our hand to help us when we walk through it!

Most of us will agree that it is in our nature to resist change. Though we might enjoy each season in our life for its individuality, and though we might appreciate a change once it has taken place, there is a tension that comes with that build-up to the actual change. Knowing change is coming tends to spark a bit of nervous energy within us, making us feel like we need to prepare ourselves or brace for impact. You see, every change involves an exchange – the known for the unknown. But the constant known that never changes is God’s track record! I am here to tell you that all you have to do is simply trust God at His Word to orchestrate the changes that will move you along in your calling and, therefore, take you to a whole new level in Him!

There are times when life seems to be shifting, and becoming something other to what it was before. Well, God is constantly on the move (John 5:17), and like a river, He flows ever onwards. While we may step from the riverbank into the river, the waters flowing over our feet will never be the same waters that flowed even one moment before. But, the key to successfully walking through the unfamiliar waters is to do like the song said, “Put your hand in the hand of the Man who stilled the water.” In other words, put your complete trust in the One that opened the new way of opportunity for you – EVEN WHEN YOU DON’T SEE THE END!

You will find you can HAVE FAITH IN GOD and welcome new beginnings, even if it’s hard to say goodbye to the previous chapter of your life. You will especially learn this as you lift your foot to take the next new step, and it is time to be open to His will and guidance. REMEMBER: God always has something good for you in the long run (Jeremiah 29:11)!

“Trust in the Lord with all your heart, and lean not on your own understanding; in all your ways acknowledge Him, and HE SHALL DIRECT YOUR PATHS.”
(Proverbs 3:5-6)
