The Door Of Our Heart

Now, I know that God is dealing with every person in here about something. Most of you probably know what it is. Maybe some of you don’t get it yet and you don’t understand that the grinding feeling you have in your gut is God. (laughing) you don’t need a hamburger because it’s deeper than in your stomach; it’s like way down inside and you’re like “I don’t know what’s wrong with me.

I don’t know what’s wrong. I just don’t feel right. I don’t know what it is. I’m just not happy. Don’t know what’s the matter.” well, God knocks at the door of our heart. There’s a scripture in revelation that many times we apply just to salvation but I think it needs to be taken a lot further; revelation 3:19: those whom I dearly and tenderly love, I tell their faults and I convict and convince and reprove and chasten [I discipline and instruct them]. So, God says “because I love you, I’m going to tell you what’s wrong with you.” thank you very much! (laughing) sometimes I’ve even felt a little bit overly loved, like “could you go love Dave for a while?” (laughing) sometimes I feel like I’m getting all the love and nobody else in the house is getting any of the love. (laughing)

But listen to what he says: (Revelation 3:19) so be enthusiastic and in earnest and burning with zeal, and repent [changing your mind and your attitude]. (vs. 20) behold, I stand at the door and knock; if anyone hears and listens to and heeds my voice and opens the door, I will come in to him and will eat with him, and he will eat with me. (vs. 21) he who overcomes and is victorious, I will grant him to sit beside me on my throne. We’ll stop right there. Which door in your life is God knocking at? Is it the door of appetite?
