Sleeping gates and doors, open now
Lift up your heads, O gates!
And be lifted up, O ancient doors,
that the King of glory may come in.
Psalm 24:7
One person can open gates and doors that seem sealed shut.
When the King opens a door for you, it's for His glory.
There is a time when God acts and opens.
Just as there is a time period for sleeping, there is a time when we wake up. God can call slumbering gates to suddenly swing open.
God is good, God loves, God has mercy, God is wisdom, and so forth. But God is glorious and when God does what God does- and He doesn't do anything bad- He gets glory. That's the point of His acts, He gets glory at the end because He is glorious. So He wants to glorify Himself through what He does for you.
So, God opens ways where it seemed impossible, for His glory and we get to participate.
God's presence in the Holy Spirit goes before His people, leading them through gates and doors that were closed until He opened them.
And be lifted up, O ancient doors,
that the King of glory may come in.
