Your Place
There is an appointed place for you. It is God’s place. Man did not give it to you and man cannot take it away.
God has provided an opened door into His appointed place for you (that also means there is a door that God has closed to you that cannot be opened by you or anyone else.)
There is no need for you to strive or push hard to try and open the door into God’s given place. God will open the right door for you at the right time—you are not strong enough to open any door that God wants shut to you, and you are not wise enough to know which door He wants to open.
His open door will bring you into a place of grace, a place of faith, and a place of dependency upon Him in all things. It is the best place, the good place, the safe place, the blessed place, the anointed place.
Once God has opened the door for you, you do not need to ever be anxious about trying to keep it open. God does not want you to be in His appointed place and live with the worry that someone might steal it from you, destroy it, or ruin it.
The enemy may try to scare you out of your place or discourage you with the thought that either your place is too small for you (you deserve something greater) or that your place is too great for you and something you can’t handle.
People may try to intimidate you, harass you, mock you, tempt you, or try to talk you out of your place, but you do not need to listen to the voices that want to keep you from abiding and thriving in God’s appointed place.
Walk through His open door, step completely through it with the confident strides of faith. Stay put in His place and don’t pine for something different, thrive there and abide there. It is His perfect place for you.
