JESUS CHRIST (GOD the Son) holds the key of David; what He opens no one can shut, and what He shuts no one can open. ~ (Revelation 3:7)

Spiritually, a key symbolizes power and authority.  Jesus Christ has the power and authority to open or shut heaven.  He decides who will be admitted into heaven and who will be in hell, since He has the key to hell as well (Revelation 1:18). 
Likewise, through Jesus Christ, the doors of blessings are open to the righteous.  The doors of victory are open to those who accept Him, and the doors of sorrow, through which they were afflicted are closed.  When you are in Christ, no force can shut the doors that He opened unto you, or open the ones that He shut.  As you seek Christ and allow Him to have His way in your life, may you find hope in knowing that God's perfect plan for your life will stand in spite of opposition.
Note:  If you have not yet surrendered your life to Jesus Christ, make a decision to do so today.  You are a new creature and no longer separated from God once you make Jesus Christ your Lord and Saviour, and remain committed to living a life of holiness.  Surrendering your life to Jesus Christ is not as complicated as you thought.

GOD is present in the company of the righteous. ~ (Psalm 14:5)

God is certainly a Friend of the righteous; He is always in our midst.  He loves so much to fellowship with us.  If you are a friend of God and you regularly spend time with Him, it is only a matter of time before satan and his emissaries realize you are untouchable.  They will experience God's wrath if they attempt to harm you. 
Similarly, you will always be a living testimony of God's existence and greatness, and by that, lead others to Jesus Christ. 
Note:
You need to surrender your life to Jesus Christ to be righteous in the eyes of God - He alone is our Righteousness (1 Corinthians 1:30). His Blood is what cleanses us of all unrighteousness.  
We can never make things right with God without Christ; not with our good deeds, generosity to others, or other righteous acts, which the Bible says are like filthy rags before Him (Isaiah 64:6).  Make a decision to accept Jesus Christ into your heart, and make Him the Lord of your life today.
Surrendering your life to JESUS is not as complicated as you thought.

GOD is called Elohim (the Eternal Creator) ~ (Genesis 1:1)

'Elohim' means 'GOD' in Hebrew. This is the first Name of God to appear in the Bible.  It expresses Him as the Eternal and Mighty One who creates all things.  The prefix 'El' means the One who is great and mighty. 


In Hebrew, 'Elohim' is grammatically plural.  This Name can then be said to signify the mystery of the Trinity (God the Father, God the Son, and God the Holy Spirit), which is implied but hidden in the Old Testament, and revealed in the New Testament. 

Note:  God alone is to be acknowledged, served, and worshipped, bearing in mind the trinity of persons in the Godhead - God the Father, God the Son, and God the Holy Spirit.  There are not three Gods, but three persons in one God.  (2 Corinthians 13:14; Matthew 28:19).
