Open the Door!

Revelation 3: 30               ESV

²⁰ Behold, I stand at the door and knock. If anyone hears my voice and opens the door, I will come in to him and eat with him, and he with me.

Jesus has pretty strong words of correction for the lukewarm church.

John’s words of prophecy, take on a whole new meaning today.

If we turn from our life of indifference, Jesus offers a profound invitation.

Is it possible, that many people have not opened the door, and let Him in?

What a promise! I mean, who wouldn’t open the door to Jesus?

You might be surprised at how many are willing to let Jesus in, but on their terms only.

Jesus will come in and fellowship with us, and interact with us, and sit and have a meal with us.

We must allow Him to come in though, on His terms and not our own.

Jesus is speaking to a church that actually shut him out.

Many people think this is a salvation verse only, but that’s not the primary purpose of this verse of scripture.

If true followers of Jesus would open their hearts, and join Him, Jesus would come in, in a very powerful way.

Jesus is speaking to the church, primarily about relationship.

Many people view this as a onetime visit, but they’ve literally missed the mark.

Is Jesus still on the outside, looking in on your life? Maybe we really need to open the door…
