Tonight, are you experiencing intense spiritual discomfort without understanding why? Maybe all you know for sure is that you are under tremendous satanic attack and can't figure it out. It could be you are standing before a door of incredible opportunity and not recognizing it.

Paul once told the Corinthians, "...a great door for effective work has opened to me, and there are many who oppose me" (1 Corinthians 16:9, NIV). At least Paul recognized his open door, and thus knew the reason why he was under attack.

Could you be blinded to opportunities that are right before your eyes? Perhaps you have gotten a promotion; bought a computer; entered a relationship or started to learn a new skill. Suddenly Satan says to his imps, "Watch out. If Fred ever figures out how this can be used for God, we're in trouble!" He tries to keep you upset and blinded. You may not see the open door, but he does and he wants to create problems to keep you so busy fighting that you never will realize your full potential.

But God has different plans. He's telling you, "Therefore, as we have opportunity, let us do good to all people, especially to those who belong to the family of believers...make the most of every opportunity" (Galatians 6:10 and Colossians 4:5, NIV).

If the warfare is intense tonight and you don't know why, ask the Lord to show you the open door He has for you.

Heavenly Father, I thank You for the doors that are open to me now. Help me to recognize opportunities to serve You in small and big ways. My adversaries are many, but if You are for me, who can defeat me? Thank you that a door that is opened by You, no one can close it! In Jesus' Name, Amen.
