Jesus Still Knocks
Revelation 3:20
“Here I am! I stand at the door and knock. If anyone hears my voice and opens the door, I will come in and eat with him, and he with me.”
Jesus is not distant. He comes near. He knocks at the door of the human heart with love, not force. He does not break in. He waits for an invitation. This verse is a beautiful picture of His desire for fellowship, closeness, and relationship.
Many people want God’s help, but not always His presence. But Jesus is not only offering blessings—He is offering Himself. When you open your heart to Him, He brings peace, communion, and life. Sometimes a loved one can be standing outside the door, but unless someone opens it, they remain outside. In the same way, Jesus may be calling gently, but we must respond with surrender.
Prayer
Lord Jesus, I open my heart to You. Come in and dwell with me. Let my heart never be too busy, too hard, or too distracted to hear Your voice. I welcome Your presence. Amen.
