The Bible describes occasions when a door was open for incredible ministry. These are exciting times of gospel advancement. In an attempt to see more open doors for ministry, we must ask ourselves, “Who opens these doors of opportunity?”
A quick, easy, and obvious answer is “God opens these doors.” In God’s sovereignty, for reasons He alone understands, sometimes the Lord creates opportunities.
A more reflective answer to the phenomena of opened doors would take into account the words of Christ. The Lord said that prayer open doors.
So what’s the answer? Is it God’s sovereignty or our prayers that open doors for ministry? It is both. Let’s make sure we are doing our part by praying that God will open doors for missionary progress.
