The House Next Door to The Synagogue
Monday, November 9, 2020
The Book of Acts records the ministry of the apostle Paul in Corinth. While Paul was in Corinth, he attempted to spread the Gospel in the synagogue there. His message was rejected. But it turned out that there was a man named Titus Justus who lived right next door to the synagogue. Titus opened up his house to Paul and the Gospel. And from that came the Church of Corinth, one of the most important churches in world history. And it all started right next door to the place where the Gospel was rejected. God always makes a way for His will to be accomplished. He always makes a way for His purposes, His glory, and the victory of His people. So, too, for you. The Bible never promises an obstacle-free walk or a problem-free life. You will have problems and obstacles and closed doors. But don't let them stop you. For when God closes a door, he opens a window. When God closes a synagogue door, he opens the Church of Corinth next door. Keep going, and you may find that the victory you thought was gone, was right there under your nose... next door.
