Get In God’s Motion!

We have all seen and walked through the automatic motion type doors at various businesses.  It’s a simple concept, the heat motion opens the door as you are walking towards the door.  The challenge for those doors, is that if you are outside of the motion area the doors won’t open.

In the picture to the left, if you are outside of those yellow barriers, there is a good chance the door won’t open.  When it comes to God opening doors, we have to make sure that we are in His motion, in His space, connecting with Him, reading His word, communing with Him, doing what His word says and not denying Him, in order for Him to better feel our motion.

“I see what you’ve done. Now see what I’ve done. I’ve opened a door before you that no one can slam shut. You don’t have much strength, I know that; you used what you had to keep my Word. You didn’t deny me when times were rough.” Revelation 3:8 MSG

God opens the door for the Philadelphians once he was able to feel their motion. It was an after effect. Let God see and feel what you’re doing in His name.  He will open doors that you don’t have the strength or ability to open and no one else has the power or ability to close.

      I would second what Jonathan said.  Interesting to think about it in this way.

    I read something today in one of my daily devotions that was so profound that I had to write it in my journal which was …”The earnest worker soon learns his weakness” the point being … its easy 4 an Idle person to B conceit of their own abilities, because they are untried. But once one makes up their mind to “get in God’s motion”… so to speak … He will definately lead you to a place that brings you to the end of yourself and cause you too realize that He is your strength. It used Paul as an example … although he was a man of zeal both before and after his conversion… it was only after he took up his cross 4 Christ that he was able to say “in my weakness I am made strong … Stay “in motion” for the Kingdom!
