Good Morning!
We’ve all had those surprise knocks at the door. The kind that make you freeze mid‑step, tip‑toe to the window, and quietly peek out to see who it is. Sometimes it’s a friend. Sometimes it’s a stranger. And sometimes - if we’re honest - we pretend we aren’t home.
Spiritually, we do the same thing.
You’ve prayed for change. You’ve asked God to move. You’ve cried out for direction, peace, breakthrough, or clarity. Yet frustration lingers, and you wonder, “Why won’t God answer?” But what if the problem isn’t that God is silent… but that you haven’t opened the door?
Jesus doesn’t force His way in. He knocks. He calls. He waits. He invites. But He will not break down the door of a heart that refuses to make room for Him.
Think about the disciples on the road to Emmaus (Luke 24:28–32). Jesus walked with them, talked with them, and opened the Scriptures to them, yet they still didn’t recognize Him. It wasn’t until they urged Him to stay and welcomed Him into their home that “their eyes were opened.” Revelation came after the invitation. Understanding came after the door was opened.
Today, Jesus is knocking on the door of your decisions, your habits, your fears, your plans, your pride, your pain. He is offering fellowship, guidance, and peace. But you must choose to unlock the door.
Let go. Let God in. The answer you’ve been waiting for is already standing on the other side of the knock.
