TOPIC: By Invitation Only
Behold, I stand at the door and knock. If anyone hears My voice and opens the door, I will come in to him and dine with him, and he with Me.
Revelation 3:20
RECOMMENDED READING
John 14:23-24
A well-known piece of Christian art is a painting titled The Light of the World by nineteenth-century artist William Hunt. The painting is based on Revelation 3:20 and shows Christ standing at the door of a house which appears not to have been opened in a long time. In one hand He holds a lantern while the other hand is raised, knocking on the door. Often unnoticed in the painting is the fact that the door has no handle on the outside, meaning it can only be opened from the inside by the occupant.
In his letter to the church at Laodicea, Christ rebuked the church for their lukewarmness-their lack of passion for the things of God (Revelation 3:15-17). And He pictured Himself standing at the door of their church, knocking, hoping to be invited in to enjoy fellowship with them. He does not force His way in but waits to be invited in.
To avoid losing your passion for Christ, welcome Him into your heart moment by moment to sustain constant fellowship with Him throughout your day.
TURNING POINT
Spiritual power comes out of inward fellowship with God and abandonment to his purposes.
