Title: Jesus Christ strengthens you to keep His word.
“And to the angel of the church in Philadelphia write; These things saith he that is holy, he that is true, he that hath the key of David, he that openeth, and no man shutteth; and shutteth, and no man openeth; I know thy works: behold, I have set before thee an open door, and no man can shut it: for thou hast a little strength, and hast kept my word, and hast not denied my name.”
Revelation 3:7-8 KJV. (See also Revelations 3:9-10).
The Lord Jesus Christ is described here as he that is true and He who holds the key of David, who when He opens no man can shut and when He closes a door no man can open. His word also tells us that in Christ dwells the fullness of God. “For in him dwelleth all the fulness of the Godhead bodily.”
Colossians 2:9 KJV
Jesus says I have set before you an open door which no man can shut, because you have kept my word and have not denied His name.
He says I know you have little strength but because you kept my word and have not denied my name I will:
1. Open a way for you which no-one can shut
2. I will strengthen you
3. I will keep you from the hour of temptation
4. I will fight your battles.
Prayer : My Father I thank you for Jesus Christ and the sacrifice He made on the cross for me. Thank you for the gift of eternal life in Christ. I receive from you God the strength, the grace and the wisdom I need to keep your word in my heart and obey what it says.
Confession: I am a child of God, Jesus Christ strengthens me, He opens doors for me which no-one can shut, He delivers me from the hour of temptation and fights all my battles.
