When lessons have been learned and our freedom in Christ won (death not making us doubt out calling) - if door remains closed, do not despair.

1.)Sometimes, God asks us to wait. He has other hearts to prepare.

2.)He may be asking us to rest (He. 4:8, 10), giving those who didn't believe another chance to receive. In which case, we'll "know" if Jesus has already told us something still will happen.

3.)God will not step over heart of man to accomplish His purpose. Once man says "NO" to God, He moves on ... taking you with Him. Shake dust off your feet, keep marching forward, and don't look back.

Just don't act until you "know" God's will. Sometimes, He offers plan "B" (Is. 49:22-23).

This I know, for sure. If you are not free, it isn't truth. Whatever holds you in bondage is not true. Whatever keeps you from your rightful place with God isn't true. Whatever stands between you and your calling, it isn't true. Just maybe it has to get bad enough before we're willing to seek truth at all cost.

Being free begins with acknowledging who is all seeing, all knowing, all loving God and choosing Him over all that is not.

And ye shall seek me, and find me, when ye shall search for me with all your heart. Jeremiah 29:13

Choose Freedom!
