2. Opening doors is God's business, our job is to walk.
3. Accept the council of your spiritual advisors.
Q&A
Q. What if there are two doors that both look like they would be good? Is there something we can do to see which way we should lean?
A. Pray for God to close one door. Also, use common sense. If you can't sing you probably shouldn't go into music ministry.
Q. What about things like relationships and careers? Do the same principles apply?
A. In relationships, the believer must be yielded to God. Before any heart is wrapped around another, you mush come to the place where your emotions do not enter in and you can look at things objectively. Ask yourself if they will better your ministry.
In careers, we can specialize too quickly. I think it's good to come to education objectively. Pick a broad vocation and pick from that while listening to your advisors.
Q. What if everybody's telling you not to, but you feel it's of God?
A. Sometimes God wants you to do something, but the Godly people aren't understanding. Maybe it's something God wants you to do, but by listening to those around you, you will be able to fulfill God's long-term goal for your life.
