073: Jesus is at the door knocking | Revelation 3:20

When Jesus said He was standing at the door and knocking, sadly He was speaking to His church.

Today’s One Verse is Revelation 3:20 is a famous verse. Jesus says that He is standing at the door and knocking. Maybe you’ve seen the famous painting that was based on this verse. But here is the part we usually forget: He is speaking to Christians. When we hear this verse, it’s easy to think, “Yes, I wish people who don’t believe in Jesus would open their lives to Him.” And that’s a great hope. But this verse is for us. If you are a Christian, we have a hard question to ask… Are we shutting Jesus out? He is standing outside the door of your heart, asking for you to let Him back in? Please open the door and spend some quality time with Jesus today.

One Verse is a short, daily devotional designed to help you grow closer to God through less than 5 minutes a day, 5 days a week.

We reach our major life goals through small, purposeful steps taken daily. The same is true in our spiritual lives. I truly believe you will grow closer to God by spending just 5 minutes a day with Him versus cramming in an hour once a month. The One Verse Devotional is here to help take away the barriers of spending time with God.
