When every other doors have closed, the door of heaven remain open through Christ.

Remember when every other doors have closed, the door of heaven remain open through Christ.

1 Chronicles  4:9 And Jabez was more honourable than his brethren: and his mother called his name Jabez, saying, Because I bare him with sorrow.  4:10 And Jabez called on the God of Israel, saying, Oh that thou wouldest bless me indeed, and enlarge my coast, and that thine hand might be with me, and that thou wouldest keep me from evil, that it may not grieve me! And God granted him that which he requested.

Beloved, because you are a bonafide faithful followers of Christ, remember things that are written about you.

1. The work of your hand must prosper.

Psalms  1:2 But his delight is in the law of the LORD; and in his law doth he meditate day and night.  1:3 And he shall be like a tree planted by the rivers of water, that bringeth forth his fruit in his season; his leaf also shall not wither; and whatsoever he doeth shall prosper.

3 John  1:2 Beloved, I wish above all things that thou mayest prosper and be in health, even as thy soul prospereth.

2.  You must experience lifetime good success.

Joshua  1:8 This book of the law shall not depart out of thy mouth; but thou shalt meditate therein day and night, that thou mayest observe to do according to all that is written therein: for then thou shalt make thy way prosperous, and then thou shalt have good success.

3. You will be standing before kings.

Proverbs  22:29 Seest thou a man diligent in his business? he shall stand before kings; he shall not stand before mean men.

4. Goodness and mercies are your lifetime possessions.

Psalms  23:6 Surely goodness and mercy shall follow me all the days of my life: and I will dwell in the house of the LORD for ever.

5. Eternity with God is your heritage.

Psalms  23:6 Surely goodness and mercy shall follow me all the days of my life: and I will dwell in the house of the LORD for ever.

What then if you discover, you are lacken in any of these?

You must then remember when every other doors have closed, the door of heaven remain open through Christ.

John  10:9 I am the door: by me if any man enter in, he shall be saved, and shall go in and out, and find pasture.

You must avoid somethings but do somethings.

What must you avoid?

1. Don’t faint.

Proverbs  24:10 If thou faint in the day of adversity, thy strength is small.

2. Don’t fight or strive with God.

Isaiah  45:9 Woe unto him that striveth with his Maker! Let the potsherd strive with the potsherds of the earth. Shall the clay say to him that fashioneth it, What makest thou? or thy work, He hath no hands?

3. Don’t be offended against Christ.

Matthew  11:6 And blessed is he, whosoever shall not be offended in me.

4. Don’t turn to satan for help.

Isaiah  30:1 Woe to the rebellious children, saith the LORD, that take counsel, but not of me; and that cover with a covering, but not of my spirit, that they may add sin to sin:  30:2 That walk to go down into Egypt, and have not asked at my mouth; to strengthen themselves in the strength of Pharaoh, and to trust in the shadow of Egypt!  30:3 Therefore shall the strength of Pharaoh be your shame, and the trust in the shadow of Egypt your confusion.

Isaiah  31:1 Woe to them that go down to Egypt for help; and stay on horses, and trust in chariots, because they are many; and in horsemen, because they are very strong; but they look not unto the Holy One of Israel, neither seek the LORD!

What must you do?

1. You must pray until you receive. l 

Luke  18:1 And he spake a parable unto them to this end, that men ought always to pray, and not to faint;

Hannah and Jacob that exactly.

1 Samuel  1:7 And as he did so year by year, when she went up to the house of the LORD, so she provoked her; therefore she wept, and did not eat.  1:9 So Hannah rose up after they had eaten in Shiloh, and after they had drunk. Now Eli the priest sat upon a seat by a post of the temple of the LORD.  1:10 And she was in bitterness of soul, and prayed unto the LORD, and wept sore.  1:11 And she vowed a vow, and said, O LORD of hosts, if thou wilt indeed look on the affliction of thine handmaid, and remember me, and not forget thine handmaid, but wilt give unto thine handmaid a man child, then I will give him unto the LORD all the days of his life, and there shall no razor come upon his head.

Genesis  32:24 And Jacob was left alone; and there wrestled a man with him until the breaking of the day.  32:25 And when he saw that he prevailed not against him, he touched the hollow of his thigh; and the hollow of Jacob’s thigh was out of joint, as he wrestled with him.  32:26 And he said, Let me go, for the day breaketh. And he said, I will not let thee go, except thou bless me.  32:27 And he said unto him, What is thy name? And he said, Jacob.  32:28 And he said, Thy name shall be called no more Jacob, but Israel: for as a prince hast thou power with God and with men, and hast prevailed.

2. You must patiently wait for God’s good timing.

Hebrews  6:12 That ye be not slothful, but followers of them who through faith and patience inherit the promises.  6:13 For when God made promise to Abraham, because he could swear by no greater, he sware by himself,  6:14 Saying, Surely blessing I will bless thee, and multiplying I will multiply thee.  6:15 And so, after he had patiently endured, he obtained the promise.

Make sure you are biblically saved and sanctified and the door of heaven will be widely open for you this morning through Christ.

John  10:9 I am the door: by me if any man enter in, he shall be saved, and shall go in and out, and find pasture.

Let us pray.
