Why are closed doors important in a Christian's life?

In the sermon, it is noted that closed doors are not merely setbacks but can be seen as divine roadblocks that prevent us from engaging in actions detrimental to our spiritual well-being. Just as in David's situation where God blocked him from fighting against Israel, Christians should recognize that God's refusal to allow certain paths can be a profound form of His protection. This perspective reframes our understanding of setbacks, encouraging believers to trust in God's timing and purpose. The wisdom in Proverbs reminds us that there is a way that seems right to man, but its end is the way of death; hence, God's roadblocks are essential for our spiritual health.
