Introduction: Are you going to expect “less than heaven’s best” in 2024? Or are you going to trust Jesus for “Much More in 2024?”

Where can we pray and trust our Lord for “More in 2024”?

1. More Faith! (James 1:2-4; 1Pet 1:6,7) – “My brethren, count it all joy when ye fall into divers temptations; 3Knowing this, that the trying of your faith worketh patience. 4 But let patience have her perfect work, that ye may be perfect and entire, wanting nothing.”

Who doesn’t need more faith in 2024? Are you a candidate? Truthfully, every Christian could use alittle more faith….faith in the area of finances? family? future? friends?

Why not trust the Lord for an open door of more faith in 2024?

2. More Grace! (James 4:6) – “But he giveth more grace. Wherefore he saith, God resisteth the proud, but giveth grace unto the humble.”

Grace is greatly needed. Without God’s amazing grace, available grace, and abounding grace we would be sunk and worthless.

But because of His Grace being in Place we can run the Race….Grace to forgive….Grace to let go of hurts and pain….Grace to move on without being bitten with bitterness….Grace to show love when it is not deserved….Grace to rise above the stench of the world….Grace to persevere when you feel like quitting…..Grace to stay focused when things are blurry…..Grace to stay humble when goals are accomplished….Grace to war against principalities and powers…..Grace to pray for others. Oh the GRACE of GOD that is GREATER than all our sins!!!

3. More Opportunities with an Open Door in 2024! (2Cor 2:12; Acts 14:27; 1Cor 16:9) – “Furthermore, when I came to Troas to preach Christ’s gospel, and a door was opened unto me of the Lord.”

“And when they were come, and had gathered the church together, they rehearsed all that God had done with them, and how he had opened the door of faith unto the Gentiles.”

“For a great door and effectual is opened unto me, and there are many adversaries.”

One dear lady who lived in an assisted living home used to say to this Pastor every time seeing her, “Prayer is the Key to heaven, but FAITH unlocks the door”!

Conclusion: Are you looking for an OPEN DOOR in 2024? Besides these mentioned in this brief devotion, a DOOR of more FAITH, more GRACE, and more OPPORTUNITIES, what DOORS will be set before you in 2024?
