The Letter to the Church at Philadelphia is filled with encouragement. This is a small church. They are not highly regarded by the world’s standards, but they serve a mighty God. Jesus holds all authority and he has opened up a door of opportunity. This does not mean that it is easy to walk through the door. The church needs Jesus to help it walk through. But when Jesus opens up the door, there is nothing that can shut the door. God is for you. He has big plans for you. He has big dreams for you. He wants to encourage you to take hold of that which he has prepared for you and know that there is nothing that can hinder his plans.

Today’s reading is found at Revelation 3:7-13. Make sure to download this week’s study guide.
