On Sunday being, August 4th, 2024, Mathew Eleojoh James of Solemn Faith International Church delivered an overwhelming sermon during the Sunday service.
Addressing the congregation at the Solemn Faith International church located at Road 21 Plot 14, Federal Housing Estate, Woji, Port Harcourt, he spoke on the topic Keys to Open Doors.
His central message was that life remains confined until the doors of destiny are unlocked by divine intervention.
Drawing from biblical texts, including Revelation 3:7-8 and 1 Corinthians 16:9, Pastor Matthew emphasized that no door is permanently shut against humanity when God decides to open it.
He stressed that God’s intervention is paramount, referencing scriptures such as Isaiah 45:1-2 and Psalm 24:7-10, which illustrate God’s power to unlock any barrier.
Pastor Matthew elaborated on the significance of the “mantle,” a metaphor for the divine authority and power that can open doors and overcome adversaries.
He cited examples from Exodus 14:15-16, 2 Kings 2:14, and Joshua 4:9-11, illustrating how biblical figures wielded the mantle to triumph over obstacles.
He reiterated that confronting adversaries is often necessary to access new levels and realms, break free from past cycles, and seize new opportunities and connections, supported by scriptures such as Acts 12:1-17, Isaiah 43:19, and 2 Corinthians 5:17.
In his message, Pastor Matthew underscored the importance of recognizing and pursuing the mantle.
He advised the congregation to keep their eyes on it, serve it, place a demand on it, and maintain an insatiable hunger for it, drawing from 2 Kings 2:0-10 and Exodus 17:9-12.
He left the congregation with thought-provoking quotes: “Until the doors of greatness are open, life and destiny remain in a cage, and as long as life remains caged, the tears of men will continue.”
He emphasized that enjoying open doors requires reliance on God, who does not need keys from man to unlock the door of destiny.
Pastor Matthew assured the congregation that no door shut against them is beyond God’s power to open.
He encouraged them to seek miracles to break free from life’s cycles and to keep life renewed through continuous divine intervention.
The service was marked by a deep sense of reflection and inspiration as Pastor Matthew’s message resonated with many, urging them to trust in God’s power to open the doors of their destiny
