EYE OF THE NEEDLE, GOD‘S OPEN DOOR


Press through in that hard narrow place or situation that seems overwhelming.


Read Matt. 19:23-24, Luke 18:25-27, Heb. 4:9-10, Phil 3:12-14, Rev. 3:7-8


Look at the narrow place in your life, the place of striving, and lay down all that God has given you in the way of agenda, talents, abilities, etc.; humble yourself and squeeze through. Enter into his rest and decree that you will be anointed to press through and enter into your new enlarged place, THE NEW DOOR God has opened to you, to give you all that is needed to accomplish your destiny completely. Decree that the season of frustrations and failures are over and you walk in a season of prosperity and success. Old things have passed away and behold all things have become new.


(Matt. 19:23) Then Jesus said to His disciples, “Assuredly, I say to you that it is hard for a rich man to enter the kingdom of heaven.24 “And again I say to you, it is easier for a camel to go through the eye of a needle than for a rich man to enter the kingdom of God.”


(Luke 18:25-27 ) For it is easier for a camel to go through a needle's eye than for a rich one to enter into the kingdom of God. And the ones who heard said, And who can be saved? And He said, The things which are impossible with men are possible with God.


(Php 3:12-14) Not as though I had already attained, either were already perfect, but I am pressing on, if I may lay hold of that for which I also was taken hold of by Christ Jesus. My brothers, I do not count myself to have taken possession, but one thing I do, forgetting the things behind and reaching forward to the things before, I press toward the mark for the prize of the high calling of God in Christ Jesus.


(Heb 4:9-10) So then there remains a rest to the people of God. For he who has entered into his rest, he also has ceased from his own works, as God did from His.


(Rev 3:7-8) And to the angel of the church in Philadelphia write: He who is holy, He who is true, He who has the key of David, He who opens and no one shuts; and shuts and no one opens, says these things: I know your works. Behold, I have given before you an open door, and no one can shut it. For you have a little strength and have kept My Word and have not denied My name.


Father, I thank You that You know our works; You have set before us an open door and no one can shut it. I pray, Lord, that our service in this may be acceptable to You and to Your saints, and that we may be given effective utterances and speak boldly as we ought to speak. We pray that we walk in wisdom and we declare that the increasing favor of You, Lord, is preceding us for we blessed and are highly favored with You and with man.
