Meaning & Inspiration
Ada Ehi's "Open Doors," released as part of the *Open Doors/On My Matter (Live) - EP* in early 2025, is a powerful declaration of faith and a testament to God's transformative power. The song centers on the profound experience of receiving divine intervention, specifically the opening of doors that were previously closed or even meant to bring ruin. The recurring phrase "Na nmeri oh," which translates to "It is victory," anchors the entire piece, establishing a foundational tone of triumph regardless of circumstance. This victory is directly attributed to God, acknowledged as the "King of Glory" and the one whose "Throne is for ever and ever." Ehi's heartfelt expression of praise stems from a place of complete reliance, as she declares, "If my only hope is Your great Name, Then it is certain that there'll be no shame." This echoes the unwavering trust found in passages like Psalm 25:2, which states, "O my God, in you I trust; let me not be put to shame."
The core message of "Open Doors" is the profound ability of God to redirect and repurpose even the most challenging situations for His glory. The lines "What was meant to bring shame, You turned it" and "King standing tall, You wipe it, You change it, For Your glory eih You turned eh it" powerfully illustrate this theme. This resonates with biblical narratives where God takes what the enemy intended for destruction and uses it for good, a concept vividly described in Genesis 50:20 when Joseph tells his brothers, "You intended to harm me, but God intended it for good to accomplish what is now being done, the saving of many lives." The repeated affirmation, "O putaram open doors," meaning "You opened doors for me," is a direct acknowledgment of divine provision and advancement, aligning with the promise in Revelation 3:7-8 that to the faithful, Christ "who holds the key of David, who opens and no one will shut, and shuts and no one will open" will open doors that no one can shut. The song's encouragement that "It's working out for my good oh, No matter the matter eh eh eh" further reinforces the believer's assurance that God's plans are always beneficial, as stated in Romans 8:28: "And we know that in all things God works for the good of those who love him, who have been called according to his purpose." Ada Ehi delivers this message with an infectious joy and unwavering conviction, making "Open Doors" an inspiring anthem of hope and divine favor.
