These are the words of him who is holy and true, who holds the key of David. What he opens no one can shut, and what he shuts no one can open. 8I know your deeds. See, I have placed before you an open door that no one can shut. I know that you have little strength, yet you have kept my word and have not denied my name. When God closes a door... He opens a door. Faith is only as good as what we put our faith in.... Our God, our Wonderful Counselor, does not change and always fulfills His promises to us. If we waiver in our faith, is that not the same as doubting that He will fulfill? He will do what He said He will do. It DOES sometimes take trials to make us come to that conclusion. When we keep surrendering to Him, keep looking to Him, keep trusting Him... He honors our faith, and we honor Him. Jesus Christ our Lord we thank you that you are the I Am, the Mighty God, Everlasting Father, King of kings. Our hope is in You and You alone do we place our faith and our trust. We thank you for dying on the cross for us, that we might know Your love. Thank you for ALL the trials we go through. I pray for every one of my brothers and sisters that they recognize them and count them ALL Joy. Psalm 34:1 I will extol the LORD at all times; his praise will always be on my lips. I pray this to You Father God, in the Name of Jesus, by the power of the Holy Spirit. Amen! Revelation 3:7b-8
7… These are the words of him who is holy and true, who holds the key of David. What he opens no one can shut, and what he shuts no one can open. 8I know your deeds. See, I have placed before you an open door that no one can shut. I know that you have little strength, yet you have kept my word and have not denied my name.

When God closes a door… He opens a door.

Faith is only as good as what we put our faith in…. Our God, our Wonderful Counselor, does not change and always fulfills His promises to us. If we waiver in our faith, is that not the same as doubting that He will fulfill? He will do what He said He will do. It DOES sometimes take trials to make us come to that conclusion. When we keep surrendering to Him, keep looking to Him, keep trusting Him… He honors our faith, and we honor Him.

Jesus Christ our Lord we thank you that you are the I Am, the Mighty God, Everlasting Father, King of kings. Our hope is in You and You alone do we place our faith and our trust. We thank you for dying on the cross for us, that we might know Your love. Thank you for ALL the trials we go through. I pray for every one of my brothers and sisters that they recognize them and count them ALL Joy.

Psalm 34:1 I will extol the LORD at all times;
his praise will always be on my lips.

I pray this to You Father God, in the Name of Jesus, by the power of the Holy Spirit.

Amen!

I thank you for your honesty and courage to ask for and write about such faith and humility. This passage has quickened me to return to that place. It is very easy to float out of that place but hard to return to. Once you have been there you know the price you must pay and begin to wonder if it is worth it... IT IS.
