Sometime's When You Go Through A Door That God Opens For You It May Be Through The Tiny Keyhole. Very Interesting Very Interesting Indeed.

Dear friends of mine explained this concept to me and it sure has caused me to ponder on it and ask the Lord to let me be pliable to go through without scrapes and bruises. It was explained to me like this through a visual example. How many of you are of the school that you learn better with an example you can visualize than a concept you have to grasp? It was explained to me like this...visualize an old fashioned key hole where you use to put a skeleton key into it to open it. Do you have that image in your mind now? Great, think how narrow the space is to accommodate that key that opens up the door. You have two options when it comes to you going through that opening. You can fight and scream and kick and go through almost being pushed through the opening and come out the other side with bruises, hurts, sad memories, crushed hearts, broken dreams, etc. OR you can go through pliable sort of like jello would go through it. Jello would conform to the opening and go through smoothly. Which do you prefer? I would definitely prefer the second method. If you are not kicking and fighting God or pouting and asking over and over and over again WHY then you should come through without any regrets and know that it was Him all along getting you positioned to make your grand entrance through the window of time He called forth in your life. Once you walk through you can look back and take a sigh of relief and truly see it was Him pushing you in that direction. It is not always that easy as you are in the "pushing" process though. You may cause yourself to doubt here and there and have moments of saying to yourself "I just want this to be over why does it seem to be taking so long for it to manifest?" That is natural and do not beat yourself up over having those thoughts or asking questions too.
A heart that hungers after God and the movement of His spirit on the earth today will learn to not succumb to those things a bit less and less as time goes on. Notice I did not say that they totally go away after time did I?
Remember, a key that can fit through the tiny opening made just for that key can cause a huge door to open. It is the very same key through the very same opening that can cause a huge or even a small door to be locked also. When we are told that God opens doors that no man can shut or closes doors that no man can open we just assume it is through a doorway don't we? Has He ever asked you to go through the narrow opening of the keyhole? That is actually the first place a key will go to open or lock a door. That is right where I am right now in my life. Be sensitive to Holy Spirit because your opening may be very narrow because not everyone is called to go into that arena or to come along with you. If they are not equipped and ready they will never go through the key opening with you smoothly and if they go through kicking and fighting they will hold you up and your progress. If they are truly to be with you they will go through in a timely manner and fashion and you will walk together on the other side into freedom. If they are not to be there then do not drag them with you for they will surely slow you down and you will cover less territory that needs to be covered. Really examine your friends and acquaintances for the one's that tend to be close to you now may be the very one's that are holding you back from destiny. Do not let a person or people hold you back from your destiny for you and not them will have to answer for yourself before God. You will not be able to blame it on others you will have to stand before Him yourself and answer for yourself.
In the beginning of this week there were two door choices before me. I have been praying for months that the angels that are there to minister to the heirs of salvation would keep open doors that God has opened and keep shut tight the doors that are suppose to stay closed for me and my life. Today, a third door seemed to open and a previous door shut. I heard of the newly opened door before I heard of the closed door today. I should be rejoicing in this but I had to go and walk and lift it to my Jesus because it was getting to be a bit overwhelming. I did and I am at peace. Do not be surprised when He answers your prayers? It is so like Him I have found in my own walk with the Lord that He opens new and fresh things created just for you. When you may seem a bit dry and parched He truly does deliver you streams in the desert. Refreshing that soothes your soul and allows you to be thankful and excitement well up inside of your for the possibility that may be right before your very eyes. You see, I have found Him to not only be faithful but He is most creative too. If you follow Him you will see that His plans are far more greater than what you could have imagined. Keep that excitement in your life and your walk with Him. When he creates He creates awesome. Take your eyes off of the shut doors and the should-a could-a things and press towards the mark of the high calling on your life. See with faith what He calls you to see and the people that will be touched by your very life,  for not wishing on a falling star but reaching for a beautiful star that shines brightly in the sky. It is so bright that it brings light onto your path to get you to that destiny. Never forget it is His hand gently guiding you if you choose to go through the open door with His grace and wisdom.
Final advice do not fight His plan for it is where joy comes forth and the refreshing rain that waters the parched and cracked land. The rain not only refreshes but it allows the fruit to grow and then it is harvested for all to enjoy the fruit of the harvest. I choose life and abundant life at that what do you choose this very day or night?
