Synopsis "The Closed Door: The Danger of Keeping Secrets"
Many people today walk (presenting what appears to be) a perfect life. A beautiful smile can be seen, and if you ask them how they are doing, they will likely respond, “I am blessed and highly favored. I’m good. All is well.” If you look a little deeper or behind their smile, you will see the opposite of the words rolling off their tongue. Frequently, all hell is breaking loose. The devil is winning, they feel defeated and are struggling in every area of life. All is not well. There has been an onslaught against their sanity. People often have things that are transpiring behind closed doors that they do not want to be viewed by the people around them or in public. This is a place where secrets are housed. While in seclusion, the smile fades, and the tormenting spirits begin to strike at its victim. Sitting behind the door is a person filled with past heartbreaks, misery, defeats, self-hatred, anger, disappointments, depression, failures, secret frustrations and an overall emptiness, that nothing and no one can fulfill. God allows His mercy and faithfulness to hover so that the act of living is still possible.
