What You Can’t See

August 10, 2024

Today’s Scripture

…the Lord knows how to rescue the godly from trials.

2 Peter 2:9, NIV

Today’s Word

We all know that God opens doors. We’ve seen Him give us favor, good breaks, promotion. But the same God will close doors. Maybe you prayed, but a relationship didn’t work out or you didn’t get the promotion or the loan. Too often we become discouraged and feel that God let us down. But we can’t see the big picture that God sees. He knows where every road is leading. He sees the dead ends and the shortcuts. A big part of faith is trusting God when you don’t understand why things happen the way they do. When a door closes, you don’t know what God is saving you from. God may close a door because a relationship or a position will lead to heartache and pain. If He opened what you think is the opportunity of a lifetime, it could limit what He wants to do in your life. The bottom line is: God has your best interest at heart. Instead of being discouraged, have a bigger perspective. The reason the door closed is because God has something better in store.

Prayer For Today

“Father, thank You that You know best when it comes to the things I want and ask You for. Thank You that You see what I cannot see and You have reasons for closed doors as well as open doors. I believe that You have something bigger, something better, something more rewarding up in front of me. In Jesus’ Name, Amen.”
