Revelation 3 - 20 and Revelation 4 - 1 --- TWO DOORS FOR ETERNITY.
Revelation 3 - 20 and Revelation 4 - 1 --- TWO DOORS FOR ETERNITY. John, the last of the apostles to die, was arrested by the Romans on a rocky island, with many volcanoes and mountains, so that the gospel was not preached, or disclosed, except that John was physically arrested, but his spirit was released. And in that prison he had profound experiences with the Lord Jesus, he was in the Spirit and the Lord showed him through a series of visions, things that should happen soon, he called Revelation. Some brothers are released physically, but spiritually they feel trapped because they can not go to church because their parents are not evangelical, others because of their work or because of violence in your neighborhood, but if you take time to check the Lord in your room or a corner in your work, your home or your work will become your island of Patmos, and you will have deep experience with the Lord at home, at school or at work. Today's word speaks of two distinct moments that the Lord Jesus revealed to the Apostle John on the island of Patmos in Revelation 3. 20 the word refers to the port as one that belongs to us, which opens or closes our heart, but the Lord Jesus also said: I am the door. If anyone enters by me will be saved because it is the door that opens to the sky. Revelation 3. 20 --- Jesus said, Behold, I stand at the door and knock: if any man hear my voice and opens the door, come in to him and will sup with him, and he with me. Jesus did not send a deacon, a pastor or an angel to shut the door of our heart, he is present and beats gently, it breaks down the door, do not invade our hearts, for he has given us the right of free will, the decision is ours. He just waits and hits, that we open the door of the heart, because he wants to come and address. The Lord wants to come into your heart, be part of your life, your intimacy and grant you a life full of joy, peace and joy. When we let Jesus into our hearts, the Spirit of God comforts us, comforts us and when we are going through struggles and adversity the Holy Spirit of God places in our hearts, rest assured that we will achieve victory. It reads: If anyone, the Lord Jesus does not specify who he says he wants to not only live in the house that is part of the work of God, or a very short time ago, because he is no respecter of persons. He only says: IF someone. And you still did not accept Jesus as the only sole and sufficient Savior, even if it has done many wrong things throughout his life, today you open your heart he will come and make a home, and you will find yourself praising the Lord and to say, this peace I feel in my soul is not for me because everything is going well, but this peace I feel in my soul is because I love my Jesus, who is the prince of peace. The prophet Jeremiah said: I listened and heard, he was saying that he heard and would attend, would obey the voice of the Lord. The word of God also says: If you are willing and obedient, ye shall eat the good of the land. The Lord promises us the best, if we heard his voice when I turn to the Lord before taking any decision. The Lord speaks to us through the word revealed by the Holy Spirit, through praise, through the spiritual gifts. The Lord expects that our position is the same as Samuel, who said, "Speak Lord, thy servant hears. Zacchaeus was a sinner, a man who exploited his people, charging unreasonable fees in order to favor the Roman empire and himself, but he deeply regretted, opened the door to his heart, he climbed a sycamore tree to see Jesus pass, and Jesus said unto him, Zacchaeus down today I must stay at home. The LORD JESUS want to land in your home, your life, but it takes down our pride, our personal vanity, our arrogance and everything we do or we do not glorify the Lord. The Lord wants to dine with us and want us we will sup with him, in reality what he wants is our whole heart, that we will welcome you with open arms, in communion with their brethren in communion with the Father ( GOD), in communion with the son (Jesus) and in communion with the Holy Spirit of God. Jesus is very close to those who accepted as one and only savior and enough and is also very close to those who have not accepted it because he's knocking on the door of everyone's heart, so we must always be praying that: our relatives, our neighbors, our colleagues at work or school will listen and hear the voice of the LORD, they will open their hearts to Jesus and to come home. We must have a sure, Jesus is present and always ready to bless us, but we must open the door of the heart. Revelation 4-1. After this I looked, and behold, a door opened in heaven, also the first voice which I like a trumpet speaking with me, saying, Come up hither, and show thee what should happen after these things. When we go through struggles and difficulty normal is look at the mountain, look at the mess of trouble that afflicts us, when we first look up, look at the sky and seek God in the name of Jesus. Even King David who was a man after God's heart at the time of tribulation said: I will lift my eyes unto the hills, but he found no relief in the mountains, so he asks the question: Where will my help? But thank God, that soon after, he looks up, looks at the sky and he answered, "My help cometh from the LORD, who made heaven and earth. When the fight is choking you and you realize that humanly speaking not as a fight or face, look up, look to the sky and cry out to God by the power of the blood of Jesus and in the name of Jesus, and the time GOD you receive the answer of the Lord, and say: My help came from above, my help came from God, who made heaven and earth. After all that John saw and lived, he looked at the mountains that surrounded him, it did not look at the problem that afflicted him, but he looked up, he looked to the sky, and saw that he had an open door in sky. And Jesus is the door that leads to heaven. She is always open. We just need to open the door of our heart and let it live. Our hearts beat Jesus needed to enter, but the sky The door is open to receive all the accepted in spirit and in truth. When Nathaniel was a real and true encounter with Jesus, the Lord Jesus said, Verily, verily I say unto you, hereafter ye shall see heaven open and the angels of God ascending and descending upon the Son of Man. Jesus is our gate to eternity with God. Our cry our prayer, our intervention in our worship, our praise and worship come through that door, and leave it to the responses of the Lord to meet our needs. John heard a voice calling him, like a trumpet and recognized the voice of Jesus in the parable of the Good Shepherd Jesus said, "What his sheep hear his voice, he goeth before them, and they follow him because they know his voice. The voice John heard was like a trumpet, and aimed to arouse the human being who is spiritually cold and are often worse off, since they are not cold nor hot, are warm, because they are in church, but not value the word of God in their secular and spiritual life, has no fellowship with the brothers, has communion with the Holy Spirit of God, some even have had an experience with him, but abandoned the work of God. The Lord Jesus said to John, "Come up here. And the Lord Jesus every day invites us to descend from the top of our reason, our understanding, and say that the old stuff (old man) have passed, behold all things are become new. When we're in this position the Lord Jesus says to each one of us, "Come up here, do not leave my side, walk with me. The apostle answered the request and the Lord Jesus revealed to him their secrets. If one looks at the request of the Lord Jesus and the emptying of ourselves, the Lord also will reveal its secrets, and in the future will be with him forever, where there will be weeping or gnashing of teeth, so the faithful church crying, Maranatha, Come, Lord Jesus.
