Recently I spent some time teaching the most amazing women. What made them amazing was their hunger. Not for food, but it was their hunger for God. They came each night, desperate. Without deliverance they could die. Drug addiction is such a gripping disease, the fight to escape from it a battle between the strength of an overwhelming, relentless enemy who knows no mercy and man, deceived by this one time friend, now left weak and powerless. How could they fight such a battle where the odds are stacked high against them? They can't, they need a deliverer. So we went to work on that, the search for deliverance. I don't know about you but when I'm getting something delivered, my deliverer comes to the door and he delivers. And that is just what Jesus does...he comes to the door.
Revelations 3:20 says,
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. To him who overcomes, i will give the right to sit with me on my throne, just as I overcame and sat down with my Father on his throne. He who has an ear, let hm hear what the Spirit says to the churches.
Need deliverance? He's at the door. Hungry? Eat with Jesus!
