Space for Grace - Keep knocking
‘your journey, your sacrifice, your desire, your space; for His grace.’
Peter knocked at the outer entrance, and a servant named Rhoda came to answer the door. When she recognized Peter’s voice, she was so overjoyed she ran back without opening it and exclaimed, “Peter is at the door!” “You’re out of your mind,” they told her. When she kept insisting that it was so, they said, “It must be his angel.” But Peter kept on knocking, and when they opened the door and saw him, they were astonished.
Peter knocked but the door didn’t open. Peter had to keep knocking. Normally we only need to knock once, but sometimes, we need to keep knocking for Peter knew the place he was knocking was a safe place.
Rhoda said Peter was at the door but they didn’t believe. Rhoda insisted even though ‘they’ said she was out of her mind. A servant girl would normally back down after being told by the masters that she was out of her mind but she insisted because she heard the voice she knew.
You know the voice of a safe space too! Return to the Lord the promises He has given you in those areas you are knocking!
