The key of David and open doors are allegories.
Key is the emblem of authority and knowledge.
An open door is a recognised right of admittance; freedom of access.
The key of David is the legal right or authority of David to shut or open the kingdom of Israel to whom he pleased. He was not bound to leave the kingdom, even to his eldest son. He chose whom he pleased to succeed him, Solomon, and no one could annul it!
Open doors are provisions of new opportunities or possibilities. Do not waste the ones entrusted to you by God.
John the beloved, the receiver and human writer of the Book of Revelations, saw that the Gospel and the kingdom of heaven are at the disposal of Christ that He can shut against whom He wills, and can open to whom He pleases, in line with His holiness and eternal redemptive plan. If He shuts, no man can open; if He opens, no man can shut. His determinations all stand fast, and none can reverse them (Isa. 22:22).
How, then, have you been handling the authority, opportunities, privileges, and possibilities God has delegated to you, here on earth, that His eternal salvation plan for people can be fully executed? Be alert.
Whenever you come to any closed door in life, it is just because open doors are nearby. Maintain good manners, and unbroken relationships with God, to make whole your authority and opportunities in Christ. Do not fear, on any side (1 Tim. 1:6). God is working out great things for you (Jer. 29:11).
