Revelation 3:20 - An Invitation for Relationship with Divinity.

Revelation 3:20 (NKJV) Behold, I stand at 
the door and knock. If anyone hears My voice and 
opens the door, I will come in to him and dine 
with him, and he with Me.  

INTRODUCTION

This Supreme Gift is a phenomenal, priceless 
treasure beyond all measure! It's a relationship with 
Deity that leads to eternity. 

COMMENTARY PEARL

   By the time you finish reading this 
sentence, roughly three trillion neutrinos, the 
lightest of all subatomic particles, will have passed 
through your body. Three trillion! And yet - you 
didn't feel a thing, did you? At the same time, how 
many Wi-Fi and cell tower waves are also moving 
through your body without a trace? You know they are 
there, but you feel nothing. 
   In short, if ever there were a generation 
that should be able to believe in the existence 
of unseen realities, it is ours. Which is one 
reason why our text for today should be especially 
meaningful. 
   Think about what it promises regarding 
the presence, the nearness, of God. He is 
standing at the door, meaning the door of your heart, 
and is knocking. To do that, He must be close to 
you - even if, like subatomic particles from 
space or radio waves, you can't see Him. As the 
apostle Paul told the pagans in Rome about God, "He 
is not far from each one of us" (Acts 17:27). 
   Indeed, He Is Even At The Door. And If 
You Would But Open The Door, He Would Come In 
And, He Says, Dine With You. To Dine With Someone 
Implies Closeness, Fellowship, Relationship. God, 
Then, Is Not Just Near To You; He Wants You To Let 
Him Into Your Life So That You Can Experience 
His Love. 
   Jesus is knocking at the door, not 
kicking it in. You must, day by day, choose to open 
it and let Him enter. 
   Lord Jesus, As I Hear You Knock, I Seek 
To Open The Door And Dine With You, Morning, 
Noon, And Night. [The Most Amazing Bible Promises

COMMENTARY

Pray in your closet and as you go about your 
daily labor let your heart be often uplifted to 
God. It was thus that Enoch walked with God. 
These silent prayers rise like precious incense 
before the throne of grace. Satan cannot overcome 
him whose heart is thus stayed upon God.  There 
is no time or place in which it is 
inappropriate to offer up a petition to God. There is 
nothing that can prevent us from lifting up our 
hearts in the spirit of earnest prayer. In the 
crowds of the street, in the midst of a business 
engagement, we may send up a petition to God and plead 
for divine guidance. A closet of communion may 
be found wherever we are. We should have the 
door of the heart open continually and our 
invitation going up that Jesus may come and abide as a 
heavenly guest in the soul.. live in the pure air 
of heaven. Those whose hearts are open to 
receive the support and blessing of God will walk in 
a holier atmosphere than that of earth and 
will have constant communion with heaven. Let 
the soul be drawn out and upward, that God may 
grant us a breath of the heavenly atmosphere. We 
may keep so near to God that in every unexpected 
trial our thoughts will turn to Him as naturally 
as the flower turns to the sun.  SC98-100 

CLOSING THOUGHT

When love fills the heart, it will flow out 
to others, not because of favors received from 
them, but because love is the principle of action. 
Love modifies the character, governs the 
impulses, subdues enmity, and ennobles the affections. 
This love is as broad as the universe, and is in 
harmony with that of the angel workers. Cherished in 
the heart, it sweetens the entire life and sheds 
its blessing upon all around. MB 38
