Faith Believers,
We need to learn to thank the Lord for closed doors,
as we do an open door.
The reason GOD closes doors is because He has not prepared anything over there for us. If He didn't close the wrong door we would never find our way to the right door. Even when we don't realize it, GOD directs our paths through the closing and opening of doors.

When
one door closes, it forces us
to change our course.
Another door closes, it forces us to
change our course yet again.
Then finally, we find the open door
and walk right into our blessing.
But instead of praising GOD for the closed door (which kept us out of trouble), we may get upset because we "judge by the appearances." And in our own arrogance, or ignorance, we insist that we know what is right.

We
have a very present help in the time of need who is always standing
guard. Because He walks ahead of us, He can see trouble down the road
and HE sets up roadblocks and detours accordingly.
But
through our lack of wisdom we try to tear down the roadblocks or push
aside the detour signs. Then the minute we get into trouble, we start
crying "Lord how could this happen to me?" We have got to realize that
the closed door was a blessing. Didn't He say "No good thing will He
withhold from them that love him?"
If
you get terminated from your job - don't feel down. Instead, thank GOD
for the new opportunities that will manifest themselves. There might be a
better job, or a blessed opportunity ahead.
If that man or woman won't return your call - it might not be them. It might be the Lord setting up a roadblock (so just let it go).
I'm so grateful, for the many times GOD has closed doors for me, just to open them in the most unexpected places.
The steps of a good man are ordered by the Lord, and He delights in his way. - Psalm 37:23. The Mountain top is glorious, but it is in the Valley that I will grow!
So be encouraged and be of good cheer for our GOD is greater than any circumstances, and He will see us through!!
