God opens
doors of opportunity for us all the time. It usually requires faith to step
through them. Paul had that chance, and he wrote the church about it. “For the
present, I'm staying right here in Ephesus. A huge door of opportunity for good
work has opened up here.” (There is also mushrooming opposition.) - 1
Corinthians 16:8-9 (The Message)
I find it
interesting that in the same breath he spoke of opportunity he mentions the
opposition. Just because god opens the door doesn’t mean we shouldn’t expect
trouble from the world. (Remember they are against Him.) Even though the
Adversary is against God’s work – His people should be more the willing to step
up and through these God moments.
God is
already there and wants us to be there working with Him! It will be a chance to
use our spiritual gifts and show our obedience.
Be
wise and step through any door God opens. Amen?
