Youth Pastor Kel Mitchell of Spirit Food Christian Center introduces a compelling analogy in his sermon “Open Doors,” likening the way we receive mail to how we receive messages from God. Just as the post office delivers letters that allow us to see who they’re from and what message they carry, God sends us messages that can guide and impact our lives profoundly.
Pastor Mitchell explains that while receiving mail is straightforward, discerning messages from God requires a deeper level of spiritual insight. These divine messages, unlike regular mail, do not always come with a clear indication of their origin. However, they are always in alignment with God’s Word, serving as a litmus test for their divine origin.
Highlighting the importance of discernment, Pastor Mitchell emphasizes that confusion is not from God but is a tool used by Satan to mislead us. By learning to recognize and act upon the messages God sends, believers can unlock new opportunities and pathways in their lives.
“Open Doors” is not just a sermon; it’s a guide on how to navigate the messages we receive in our spiritual walk with God. Pastor Mitchell encourages us to move forward with confidence in what God communicates to us, promising that such faith and understanding will indeed open doors to blessings and growth in our lives.
