God opens and shuts doors

**Joyce Meyer

There are critical times in our lives when we especially need to know we are hearing clearly from God. It is not always easy to know His voice from that of our own emotional reasoning. But I know from experience that God can open doors of opportunity that no once can close, and He can also close doors that we cannot open.

I spent many years trying to organize things I wanted to do in life. The result was frustration and disappointment. But I found favor and make things easy for us when we seek Him and His perfect timing. He leads one step at a time. If you take one step forward in the wrong direction, He will let you know before you go too far.

Be aware that His thoughts are above your thoughts. He sees the end from the beginning. All His ways are right and sure. He knows what makes sense for your life and He can make it happen. Hear from Him and you will not be deceived. 

Prayer starter God, I trust You to open the right doors in my life and shut the wrong ones. Even when I do not know what to do, I have faith that I can hear from You and follow Your will.


Revelation 3:7
"To the angel of the church in Philadelphia write: 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."
