” God works in different ways, but it is the same God who does the work in all of us.” 1 Corinthians 12:6
” The thief’s purpose is to steal, kill and destroy.” John 10:10
The Lord our God in heaven is knocking at your door. It is important that you answer his knock and invite him in. There are many reasons that people knock on our doors. The action of knocking is the same but the purpose for the visit is, in many cases, different. The same is true with Jesus. If you have not been rescued and saved, then he is knocking to save you. He wants to come in and provide you the opportunity to live with him in eternity. He wants to invite you to be blessed with his salvation, healing and forgiveness of sins. He wants to invite you into the kingdom of God. He wants to recruit you into his mighty army. Open the door and invite him in!
For others he is knocking because he needs you to stand up and be counted for Jesus! We as children of God are in a mighty spiritual battle with the evil of this world. Scripture tells us that the evil one has a purpose, and that is to steal, kill and destroy. If we are not strong in our faith and trusting in the ways of our Lord God, then we will succumb to the attacks of the devil. If we are not strong in faith and belief, then we have no power and will struggle mightily. We must open the door and be renewed in the spirit and refreshed in the presence of our Lord. We must choose the winning side and not the defeated side. The devil knows quite well that his time is short. He knows that he is defeated and that will not be able to withstand the power of God and his army. Time is short. Open the door and invite him in! PRAISE THE LORD IN ALL THINGS!
