Knock and use the right key

Have you ever known someone that repeated the same action over and over again and knew it was hurting them? Did ever want to just take them and shake them and until stupid falls out? Well, so have I and I'm sure I had the same affect on someone else as well. Why can't we use what I call the "right key" method, where you keep trying all the keys on the chain until you find the right one to open the door. If you find a key doesn't fit then don't use it again or you'll get the same result, an unlocked door. Discard and try a different key. There should really be only one key to each door God puts before us. There are doors we open and walk into that are not where we should be and are dangerous places to go. But we have so many doors God gives us to open but we keep using the same keys that don't work. The same can be said when God says to knock, and it shall be opened unto us. So why aren't some of us knocking and using the right keys? Why do we repeat so many bad habits that hurt us when God constantly shows us the way we should do things?

He shows us the keys to a blessed, healthy life and a holy life with peace yet we choose to walk into ungodly and unhealthy situations. God shows us what works everyday in his word and it's all written out for us. It's like finding unburied treasure or walking into an open door finding something more precious than gold.  So stop using those old rusty keys that don't work and stop going into places that we force ourselves into. Jesus is so inviting and welcoming that we don't need a key to get into heaven, we just have to knock. However, with life ups and downs, bad habits and situations we have keys called solutions and answers given by God and we seem to mingle them with our own sets of keys. When god gives us a key to a problem color code it and recognize his will so we won't choose our own.
