Day 55 of 365
When God Closes Doors
Revelation 3:8
Revelation 3:8
“I know your deeds. See, I have placed before you an open door that no one can shut.”
Reflection
That closed door hurts. It was the job you wanted, the relationship you envisioned, the opportunity you needed. But what if God closed it to protect you? What if He has something better? Closed doors aren't punishments; they're redirections. God's 'no' or 'not now' is protecting you from wrong timing, wrong fit, or wrong direction. Trust that He knows what He's doing. When one door closes, God opens another - often a better one. But you have to stop banging on the closed door to see the open one. Joseph's slavery in Egypt seemed like a closed door, but it positioned him to save nations. Paul couldn't preach in Asia, so he went to Europe and changed the western world. Today, release that closed door. Thank God for redirecting you. Your open door is coming.
