Revelation 3:8
\n\u00a7\u201cI know your deeds. See, I have placed before you an open door that no one can shut. I know that you have little strength, yet you have kept my word and have not denied my name.\u201d<\/p>\n
Door #1, Sacrifice<\/p>\n
\u00a7Sacrifice is giving to God whatever He requires of us. Eg. our time, our earthly possessions, and our energies to further His work.<\/p>\n
It was sacrifice that opened the door of redemption. After Christ open the door of sacrifice on the cross, redemption came, and grace came. The holiest place in the temple could not withstand the pressure.\u00a0Matthew 27:51\u00a0<\/strong>says, \u201cBehold, the veil of the temple was torn in pieces from the top to the bottom, and the earth shook the rocks split.\u201d<\/p>\n Door #2, Diligence<\/p>\n \u00a7The biblical definition of Diligence is prompt, earnest, eager, perfect, or persistent. The habit of being persistent and making a hard-working effort in your work or duties may be a painful activity, but undergoing a significant change brings you impressive achievements<\/p>\n Proverbs 13:4\u00a0<\/strong>The soul of the slug desires and gets nothing, while the soul of the diligent is richly supplied.<\/p>\n Proverbs 12:24\u00a0<\/strong>The hand of the diligent will rule, while the slothful will be forced into labor.<\/p>\n Door #3, Tithing<\/p>\n
