God Will Open Doors But Sometimes We Have To Knock

I've learned one thing in life and that is, God will not magically fling open a door just because we step in front of it. 

Sometimes we've got to reach out, turn the knob, force the door open and step through to the other side. It’s this little thing we call faith. It’s action. It’s movement. It’s trust. I don’t think God wants us to stand in the hallway waiting for Him to open all the doors. He wants us to have enough trust in Him to take some initiative. He wants us to jiggle some handles and pick some locks and pry into some places. Satan wants us to think we can’t go just because the door didn’t magically fling open the moment we stepped in front of it.

God will honor our action. When we do our part, God does His. He always keeps His word. 

Movement is the key to reaching the next level—tenacity and resolve and persistence and insistence. Our capacity to attain the goal doesn’t lie in our knowledge of the moves but in our willingness to move. We've got to put our trust in God understanding that He can take our steps—even the ones leading to certain failure—and order them, causing them to produce good.

It matters. We matter. We have an impact. Our assignment will always attract the attention of those who need it.

Remember, it is when you move that He can work. God can’t meet you where you haven’t arrived. For it is in our movement, in our willingness to meet Him that God can take the road, even the one leading to failure, and order it, creating opportunity where there once was none.

He makes all things new, including you.

Blessings,
