Welcome to JUNE
Our Month of OPEN DOORS – Revelation 3:8; Acts 16:26-27; Acts 12:16

We walk through several doors every day. Today alone, you may have
walked through five or more doors. If you try counting the number of
doors a person walks through in their lifetime, you will discover that
they are many.

You need open doors to move from one place to another and from one
level to another. On the other hand, a closed door means confinement
or being tied down to a particular place and this represents stagnation.
It is only when we have open doors that we get access to the blessings,
places, people and opportunities that we need for growth and progress
in life.

Revelation 3:7 describes Jesus as the One that opens a door which no
one can shut and the One that shuts a door which no one can open. This
means that in this life, everyone needs Jesus Christ to open certain doors
and to close certain doors. I pray that the Lord shall close every door in
your life that needs to be closed and He shall open all the doors that you
need open for your progress and fulfilment in life.

Both physical and spiritual doors have keys that open and close them.
In Matthew 16:19, God says that He has given us the keys to the
kingdom of heaven. The emphasis on keys means that more than one
key is required for open doors. While one key may open the door of
promotion, a different key may be required to open the door of healing.

Total submission to God is a major key needed for God’s divine
intervention in your life. It paves the way for praises – Acts 16:22-27
and answered prayers – Acts 12:1-7; Luke 11:5-10; Matthew 7:7.
Persistent prayer is also required for open doors. As you pray, all the
doors that have been closed against you will open and remain
permanently open in Jesus name.

OUR MONTH OF DIVINE DIRECTION

Psalm 16:11, Proverbs 16:25, Isaiah 30:21Let us consider the two words: divine and direction.

In considering the word “direction,” there has to be a certain goal or a target. Direction then, is the path or the way that leads to the goal or to a certain place. The question then arises: how do I reach my target; how do I achieve my goal in life? This question brings us to the second word “divine.” Anything divine is from God and something sacred.

In order to reach our target or goal in life we need divine direction. It is God’s roadmap for an individual and a revelation of the ways of God to men – Psalm 16:11, Psalm 103:7, Proverbs 16:25.

God leads in several ways: through His Word – Psalm 43:3; 119:105; through Instructions – Psalm 32:8-9; through a prophetic guardian – Hebrews 1:1; through the voice of the Spirit, that inner small, yet audible voice – Romans 8:14; through wise counsel – Proverbs 11:14, and many more.

There are requirements for divine direction. You must be a son – Romans 8:14. You must have a meek and teachable spirit. This is why the Bible says we must be like children – correctable and not full of pride. You must yield yourself to God. There can be no arrogance if there will be any divine direction – Psalm 25:9. You must have a quiet spirit in order to hear God. You cannot hear a still small voice in the midst of noise. You must separate yourself from noise so that God can minister to you – Isaiah 30:21. You must fellowship with the Holy Spirit if you want to enter into the realm of divine direction – Romans 8:14. Finally, you must hunger for God’s direction. What you don’t desire, you can’t receive.

My prayer for you is that God will divinely direct you as you surrender yourself totally to His perfect will for your life in Jesus Christ mighty name. Shalom.
