Friend, it is essential to know that when Jesus opens a door for you, no man can shut it. Your mamma can’t shut it; your daddy can’t shut it; your pastor can’t shut a door that Jesus opens for you. Actually, you are the only one who can in effect, closed the doors of God’s blessing on your life.
How Pastor? By a lack of understanding or by disobedience. You see, there is a God-ward side and a man-ward side to everything we receive from God. Many times, folks want to leave it all up to God.
They say, “Whatever I need, I know the Lord will send it. If I need healing, He will send that. Whatever it is, God will send it.” That sounds good, and that sounds religious. But, really, putting it in the context of what Jesus said, it isn’t true. Why Pastor? When it comes to the provisions of God, Jesus has already set an open door before us.
