I stand at the door and knock

 by David Long

"Behold, I stand at the door, and knock: if any man hear my voice, and open the door, I will come in to him, and will sup with him, and he with me" (Rev. 3:20). Notice Jesus is pictured as standing at the door knocking. He is waiting for you to open the door. He will not force His way in. How do we open the door so Jesus can come in? "If a man love me, he will keep my words: and my Father will love him, and we will come unto him, and make our abode with him" (John 14:23). Do you hear Jesus knocking? Will you love Him and obey His words? If you will then Jesus will gladly make His home with you.
