Open Heavens June 18, 2008

BIBLE IN A YEAR: Exo 28-31


THE DOOR


MEMORIZE: "I am the door: by me if any man enter in, he shall be saved, and shall go in and out, and find pasture" (John 10:9)

READ: John 10:1-9

Two young upwardly mobile men were busy working for God when the enemies grew wild and arrested them (Acts 16:25-26). Their plan was to truncate their destiny. In the prison, the duo were hungry, in chains, and undergoing excruciating pain. Instead of engaging in self pity and tears, their focus was how to bring Heaven into that prison. Also, they knew that God was in search of true worshippers, and wherever He saw pure spirit-filled praise and worship, He would come down. They did not say, ‘Lord, look at where we are. How could we be so devoted to you in service, soul winning, giving offerings, first fruits, tithes, casting out demons and yet end up in jail?’ As they praised and worshiped the Almighty, a ladder formed from their sacrificial offering in that prison to Heaven, and the Commander-in-Chief of the heavenly hosts descended.



When Heaven comes to earth, there will be an earthquake. According to Psalms 114:7, every force, human, spirit, animate or inanimate that is involved in your arrest will have no choice but to tremble before their Maker. Every gathering of demons or men against your life and destiny, shall tremble today before their Maker. Also, when Heaven comes to earth, closed doors are forced open. According to Psalms107:15-16, one reason we should offer God praise is because He has broken the brazen gates and cut the iron bars. When Peter was incarcerated in Acts 12:1-11, an angel came in without opening the prison doors, woke him from his deep sleep, his chains fell off, and he followed the angel. As they approached the main security gate, it opened on its own. I asked the Lord why the door opened on its own accord and He said when that door saw THE DOOR - the One who says I AM the DOOR, it gave way.


Every door is a door. Every door is answerable to THE DOOR. Every door the enemy has shut against your university admission, business, idea, ministry, finances, destiny, shall see the DOOR today and open to you in Jesus’ name. Every door of progress shut against you in the spirit realm, and in your dreams, is opened by the authority of THE DOOR. Heaven is coming to your earth this season so whatever men said was impossible will become possible. The Lord is making a way for you where you were stuck. You are coming out of that fix! The DOOR has made a way for you. Rise, praise and worship Him from the bottom of your heart.


ACTIONPOINT: When THE DOOR shows up to every shut door in your life, they will bow to Him and in the process remain open. Ask THE DOOR to visit your closed doors today
