Have you ever heard the saying "When God closes a door, He always
opens a window?" This is a distortion of scriptural truth that sets us
up for major disappointment and shaking of our faith. It gives us a
false hope that we will get what we want. The truth is, when God
shuts a door, no one can open it. There may or may not be another
door. We can accept the closed door and know that it is for our own
good and for God's glory.
Read Isaiah 22:22
(See Revelation 3:7)
"I will place on his shoulder the key to the house of David; what he
opens no one can shut, and what he shuts no one can open." (NIV)
"And the key of the house of David will I lay upon his shoulder; so he shall open, and none shall shut; and he shall shut, and none shall open." (KJV)
