Devotional: Behind Closed Doors

January 01 2023
Posted by Pastor Toledo

With the start of a new year, goals, resolutions, and progress are at the front of everyone’s mind. And setting new goals for the year is good. But let us keep in mind that our goals should be aligned with God’s will. So the question remains, how do we find God’s will, and how do we plan with Him? It all happens behind closed doors. Like an athlete trains, a doctor or lawyer goes through schooling, or a craftsman is first an apprentice, our lives start behind closed doors with God before they become public and bear fruit. 

Questions for Meditation

  1. Why is it important to ‘shut the door?’
  2. What happened when the widow shut the door ? 
  3. What happens when we shut the door? 
  4. What was provided for the widow, and why was it significant? 
  5. What is the outpouring we receive when we cry out?
