The Bethlehem Principle
Tuesday, April 3, 2018
'No room at the inn' is one of the most famous phrases from the Bible. When Yoseph and Miriam came to Bethlehem walking in the center of God's will, about to fulfill the ancient prophecies of the Hebrew Scriptures, the door slammed in their faces. So they went to a manger/lamb birthing station and there was born the Lamb of God, King of the Jews, Messiah, and the Light of the world. It doesn't matter how close you are to God or how much you walk in the center of His will, you'll still come up against closed doors. But when the door closes in your face, when the door closes on that dream, on that plan, on that hope, and you hear the words "there's no room at the inn", know for sure that God has something better. Trust the Lord. Stand in faith and persevere in hope. When the door closes to you, in the Lord know and have confidence that there's something better and more beautiful waiting to bless you as you don't give up. Persevere, because there's yet a manger in Bethlehem.
From Message #584 - No Room At The Inn
Today's Mission
Today, stand in faith, persevere in hope, and have confidence that the Lord will open the right door for you to accomplish His plans for your life.
Rabbi Jonathan Cahn
