We see that the Lord will at times close doors as He did the closing of the door to ministry in Asia and Bithynia. These might have seemed logical places to seek to go to but it was not the will of the Lord. We can find doors closed to us through illness, disability or through providence. The Lord may use these closed doors to spare us from real harm or to save us from a situation where we lacked the skills or maturity to cope. We have to bow to His sovereign will and learn not to fret, nor to lose belief in God's goodness. But doors may close because the Lord is going to open another door for us. The way to Macedonia was going to be made clear to Paul and his companions. He has a plan for His people. We need to pray that we could leave behind the closed doors and have faith that the Lord has open doors ahead of us.
