God's Open Door Policy!
"I know your deeds. See, I have placed
before you an open door that no one
can shut."
Revelation 3: 8
Wilcox’s Pier
Restaurant in West Haven, Connecticut,
prepared great seafood for patrons. But many people
came just to watch waiters with arms full of trays walk
right through the door that magically opened for them.
The first automatic door was installed in 1931 there so
servers wouldn’t have to use arms to open the door.
The Lord has been in the open-door business from
the beginning. The church in the New Testament city
of Philadelphia had great opportunities to serve
Him.
Their location was strategic. Their presence
was timely. The Lord blessed their efforts,
and He does the same for us.
Pray for God to open doors for you to spread
His Word. Look for opportunities He sends,
and take advantage of them.
Sometimes the door opens just enough for us
to say a few words or to exercise a
moment of
kindness. The Lord constantly sets before us
open doors that no one can shut.
How many ministries has God given to us illimitable
opportunities! Oh, how many facets and in how many
areas are there opportunities to
serve God!
“Behold, I set before thee an open door.”
W. A. Criswell
