Your Daily Prayer - A Prayer to Praise God When He Opens a Door He Once Shut

Today’s episode is a beautiful reminder that a “no” from God is never the end of the story—it may just be a “not yet.” Chelsey DeMatteis shares a powerful testimony of how God brought full-circle redemption to a door that was once closed. As we look to Matthew 2 and reflect on God leading Mary, Joseph, and Jesus back to Egypt—a place once synonymous with captivity—we see the incredible ways God repurposes our past for His glory. Let today’s prayer renew your faith in God’s timing and goodness.

Themes explored:

• Trusting God when doors close
• Patience in waiting seasons
• Full-circle redemption
• Boldness to share testimony
• God’s sovereignty in our calling
