The Responsibility Of Open Doors

Apostle Grace Lubega 

Luke 12:48 (KJV); But he that knew not, and did commit things worthy of stripes, shall be beaten with few stripes. For unto whomsoever much is given, of him shall be much required: and to whom men have committed much, of him they will ask the more.

Every door is a responsibility. Doors do not open for us for personal gratification and fulfillment. To whom much is given, much is required.

No one can claim open doors and ignore the fact that these doors place a demand and a requirement upon their spirit.

Paul made statements as bold as ‘A great and effectual door is opened unto me'(1 Corinthians 16:9).

But this door did not open without a consequent responsibility. In this understanding, Paul declared, 
‘Woe unto me if I preach not the gospel!’ (1 Corinthians 9:16).

You did not get that job merely for your sake. You were not posted to another nation by mistake. That opportunity did not come to you randomly.

God is deliberate about every door that He opens for us. 

This is why you must find purpose in every opportunity. You must be diligent to inquire why some doors were opened to you; why you got into a certain circle of people; why you met certain men and women. 

Hallelujah!

GOLDEN NUGGET:
Every door is a responsibility. Doors do not open for us for personal gratification and fulfillment. To whom much is given, much is required.

PRAYER: Father God, I thank you for this Word. Thank you for the opportunities that you have blessed me with. The nations that are open and the people that you have brought into my life. I am conscious of the responsibility of open doors and alive to the divine purpose in the things that I must do. I can never get off the course set for me because I have understood this wisdom. In Jesus’ name, Amen.
