Understand Why the Kingdom Closes Some Doors
In The Kingdom — closed Doors don’t mean rejection!
The Kingdom may simply need to transfer you to an appropriate class and an appropriate tutor depending on the present disposition of your character, so that you can acquire the righteous requirements in Wisdom and Character to walk back into some of the gates that were shut to you.
There will be opportunities to be brought under the tutelage of righteous shepherds, and there can also be times when tutelage will be by the bread of affliction and the waters of adversity, when we misuse the opportunity of being tutored by righteous shepherds.
In all things, the principle of falling and getting back up is the bedrock of how The Kingdom handles its Citizens.
We may exercise our liberty to fall at will, but it is The Kingdom that determines how it brings you through the redemptive path of getting back up.
When you understand this, you can have love in your heart, for those who must walk out of your life in a time and season.
There are those who must exit the team at a time, to whom the doors must be shut for a while, so that they go ahead unto other tutors under whom they must be taught what is necessary before walking in a higher place.
For if you give a child a pen, and bring him into your office, he would decorate your walls and sofas with his colorings — but if you give a trained hand a pen, he would be the tongue of a ready writer and aid the fulfillment of the work in its time.
When you understand this, you would be grateful for the doors that were shut to you before their due time, and you will in wisdom and honor, shut the doors that you must from those who must press on to a higher level of wisdom and maturity to walk in them.
“And therefore will the LORD wait, that he may be gracious unto you, and therefore will he be exalted, that he may have mercy upon you: for the LORD is a God of judgment: blessed are all they that wait for him. For the people shall dwell in Zion at Jerusalem: thou shalt weep no more: he will be very gracious unto thee at the voice of thy cry, when he shall hear it, he will answer thee. And though the Lord give you the bread of adversity, and the water of affliction, yet shall not thy teachers be removed into a corner any more, but thine eyes shall see thy teachers: And thine ears shall hear a word behind thee, saying, This is the way, walk ye in it, when ye turn to the right hand, and when ye turn to the left.” Isaiah 30:18-21.
