A window shalt thou make to the ark, and in a cubit shalt thou finish it above; and the door of the ark shalt thou set in the side thereof. |

Genesis 6:16 | ||

Because it was God who shut him in (Genesis 7:16), Noah had no control over the door of the ark. But he did have control over the window. So too, I control how much illumination and understanding I have in life by how much I allow the Word of God to be in my thinking (Psalm 119:105). I can either remain in the dark, or I can gain light and insight by opening up the window of the Word. Sure, sometimes it would be easier to just watch Jeopardy. Sometimes it would be easier to sleep in and skip morning devotions. Sometimes it would be easier not to take the time to study Scripture, but I will walk in light only to the extent that I choose to open the window and allow the light of the Word to flood my soul and renew my thoughts. There was only one door in the ark. There was no back door, no emergency exit. “Why can’t you just be broad-minded? Why can’t you just say there are many ways to enter into a relationship with God?” people ask us. The reason is because Jesus said, “No man comes to the Father but by Me” (see John 14:6). And I’m real glad about that. You see, if God had five ways to enter into salvation, five ways to be able to make it to heaven, five ways to cultivate a relationship with Him, Satan would come back with twenty-five counterfeit ways. If God had ten ways, Satan would come back with ten thousand. God says, “I don’t want anyone to choose the wrong door. I’m going to keep it real simple. There’s only one.” | ||
