Jesus: The Door

-Roy Lessin, Jesus Name Above All Names

Jesus said unto them again, "Most assuredly, I say to you, I am the door of the sheep." -John 10:7 NKJV

A popular TV game show would end its program by presenting the winning contestant with the option of opening one of three doors. Behind each door was a prize, but only one door held the grand prize. The drama of the show was to discover what was behind the door the contestant selected.

There are three doors that none of us should seek to open. Behind each one is something very undesirable. The first is the door of the world; behind this door everything is passing away. The second is the door of the flesh; behind this door everything leads to death. The third is the door of the enemy; behind this door everything brings darkness.

Jesus is the Door that will lead you to life and all that is good. The Bible tells us that every spiritual blessing we could ever desire or need is found in Jesus Christ—every treasure, every gift, every joy. When the door of God's mercy is opened to you, you can enter into God's abundance. It is here that you will always find the best. Through Jesus, nothing second-rate awaits you. Choosing Jesus as your Door will never leave you disappointed with the outcome. Opening His door means entering into life.
