July 13th 2025 – When One Door Closes, Another Door Opens

“The key of the house of David I will lay on his shoulder; he shall open, and no one shall shut; and he shall shut, and no one shall open.” (Isaiah 22:22)

In our journey of faith, we find solace in knowing that our Lord Jesus is the one who opens and closes doors in our lives. This truth brings immense comfort, especially in moments of uncertainty. There are times when I approach prayer, feeling lost and unsure of the decisions ahead. In those moments, I offer this heartfelt prayer:

“Heavenly Father, You have promised to open doors for me and close those that are not meant for me. I stand before You with this decision, uncertain of the path to take. I trust in Your divine wisdom, believing that You will open this door if it aligns with Your will, and close it if it does not. I thank You for Your guidance in Jesus’ name.”

Through prayers like this, we surrender our will to God, acknowledging that His plans for us are always for our good. Acceptance of His will can be challenging, especially when it diverges from our own desires. While we may yearn for what we have just prayed for, God, in His infinite wisdom, sees the bigger picture and knows what will truly be a blessing for us. If only we could glimpse the future through His eyes, we would wholeheartedly seek His will.

The Scriptures remind us in Psalm 37:23, “The steps of a good man are ordered by the LORD, and He delights in his way.” This assurance that God is guiding our steps fills me with confidence. I desire for Him to have all of me, trusting Him completely as the Lord and King of my life. Embrace His care today, and witness how beautifully your steps align with His perfect will.

“In the tapestry of life, every closed door is a gentle reminder that a new path awaits, guided by the hand of divine wisdom.”

Prayer:

Heavenly Father, I am grateful that my steps are orchestrated by You. Thank You for the good doors You open and the ones You close for my benefit. I trust You deeply and appreciate all that You do in my life. In Jesus’ precious name, Amen.

March 14th 2025 – Wake up Call from God

“Before I was afflicted, I went astray, but now I keep Your word.” (Psalm 119:67)

Sometimes, life throws challenges our way to grab our attention. When we stray from the right path, it’s as if God gently nudges us back, hoping we’ll reconsider our choices.

Take Jonah, for example. He was chosen to deliver a message to the Ninevites but instead chose to run in the opposite direction. In his disobedience, God didn’t abandon him; rather, He pursued Jonah because of His love. Just like that, God often reminds us that we can’t stray too far without Him noticing. He can guide us back to where we need to be.

As the psalmist reflects, “Before I was afflicted, I went astray, but now I keep Your word.” Sometimes, it takes a difficult moment for us to realize what truly matters.

Have you ever had a wake-up call? Maybe you weren’t feeling well and finally decided to see a doctor. When the test results come back with concerning news, it can feel like your world is turned upside down. In that moment, you might promise to change, be more devoted, and appreciate life more. But once the storm passes and you hear that everything is okay, it’s easy to slip back into old routines. What happened to those promises?

If you’ve experienced that wake-up call, here’s some advice: Stay awake!

Life might not make sense right now, but trust that it will eventually. Remember, the Devil can’t touch a believer without God’s permission. God remains in control of every situation we face.

“God is in control of all circumstances that surround the life of the believer.”

Prayer:

Heavenly Father, You have my attention! I ask for Your forgiveness for times I’ve done things my way and drifted from Your path. I commit to seeking You earnestly and listening to Your guidance. Your Word brings life, and I want to fill my heart with it. Thank You for being my constant support and for all You’ve done for me. You are so good, and I am truly grateful. In Jesus’ name, Amen.
