God Standing at the Door
“Here I am! I stand at the door and knock. If anyone hears My voice and opens the door,
I will come in and eat with him, and he with Me.” Rev. 3:20
This is a divine invitation from the Lord. It is interesting that it sits in the letter
to Laodicea; the church that was “lukewarm.”
This church is receiving the invitation to respond to the Lord, standing
at the door and knocking. He is
extending the same invitation to us.
Settle yourself, put down what is in your hands and try this
exercise. As you quiet yourself and
invite the Holy Spirit’s presence, picture Jesus standing at the door of your
heart, knocking. Next, see yourself go
to open the door and see if you can get a glimpse of Jesus. Focus on whatever may be exchanged between
you and the Lord. As He comes in and you
are together, breaking bread together over the table of fellowship, rest in Him
and listen for what He may have to say to you.
Try this a few times and it may end becoming one of the most
life-giving prayer activities you have in your walk with the Lord. It is refreshing when we stop and let Him
into our lives and let Him speak with us.
