Open the Door

Revelation  3:20 "Listen! I am standing at the door and knocking!  If anyone hears my voice and opens the door I will come into his home and share a meal with him, and he with Me."

Greetings,

Over the years I have watched plenty of interviews where they ask this question: If you could have dinner with any famous person who would it be and why?

Oprah seems to be a popular answer, and I am sure if I could spend some time with her  over vaca frita, congris, and mariquitas smothered in garlic, it would make for quite an interesting meal!

Somehow, however, I don't think she would accept my invitation. 

But there is Someone immensely more loving, gracious, powerful, awesome, and merciful Who wants to share a meal with us.  And He does not require an invitation because He is already knocking on the door.

Can You hear Him?

"Open the door, all you who carry heavy burdens, and I will give you rest." (Matthew 11:28)

"Open the door, and I will give you peace at all times and in every situation." (2 Thessalonians 3:16)

"Open the door, and I will watch over your life." (Psalm 121:7)

Let's open the door right now and invite the Lord into our homes.

PRAYER: Dear Lord, give us ears to hear Your voice.  Some of us have ignored You,  and yet You keep on knocking because You long to make our lives better.  We open the door to You right now and are thankful for  the blessings You bring.   In Jesus' name, AMEN!
