Heart Service-Access To Open Doors

Do you desire to gain access to open doors in your life? Then this post is for you. Many people desire open doors but they are not getting it because they are not doing what is needed to gain access to it. God has made available open doors for His people but it takes heart service to gain access to them. This post emphasizes service from the heart as a channel to God's open doors for you.

And it shall be that if you earnestly obey My commandments which I command you today, to love the LORD your God and serve Him with all your heart and with all your soul, then I will give you the rain for your land in its season, the early rain and the latter rain, that you may gather in your grain, your new wine, and your oil - Deuteronomy 11:13-14 (NKJV).

These people draw near to Me with their mouth, And honor Me with their lips, But their heart is far from Me. And in vain they worship Me, Teaching as doctrines the commandments of men - Matthew 15:8-9 (NKJV).

Many people are Christian believers but they are not serving the Lord with their heart. Their lips honour God but their hearts are far from God. They go to church but they don't want to be committed in any service in the church, they don't make out time to pray for God's kingdom to come and His will to be done on earth as it is in heaven (Matthew 6:10), and they don't go out to preach the gospel to unbelievers so they can be saved. They are just nominal Christians: hearers but not doers of the word of God. Such Christians are denying themselves access to open doors in their lives.

 God has promised that when you obey His commandments to love and to serve Him, He would open the heavens and pour out rain upon the land for you, so that you can gather grains, new wine and oil. These connote abundant blessings. When you love God, which is to obey His instructions: both personal instructions and the instructions in the word (John 14:21, 23), and serve Him with all your heart, you gain access to the floodgates of heaven. The Lord becomes committed to seeing that your requests are answered (John 15:16). Read more...
