Today’s Word

We all have times when things come to an end that we weren’t expecting. The company downsizes, and we’re let go. A friendship changes, and someone moves on.

The door suddenly closes on a dream. It’s easy to get discouraged, but God is called “the Beginning and the End.” He has designed certain things to come to an end in order to move us into a new level of our destiny. We may not understand it, but it’s a necessary ending.

Without that door closing, you wouldn’t see the greater things God has in store. The same God who opens doors closes doors. Where you saw abundance in one season may seem like a famine in another. If you don’t understand that God has necessary endings, you’ll fight every closed door and try to hold on to things that God has brought to an end. He is “the author and the finisher.”

When a door closes, take your fingers and your feelings off the door. Let it go. God never brings things to an end without having something better coming, something more rewarding, more fulfilling.

Prayer For Today

“Father, thank You that You are the Beginning and the End, that You bring necessary endings because You are always doing something new. I believe that even now You are working in ways I don’t yet see. I declare You are the author and finisher of my faith, and I look forward to great things. In Jesus’ Name, Amen.”
