As I stand outside on the ground, I can quickly,swing the door back and forth and water appears to come out the bottom corner of the door closest to me.
I'm guessing water is getting inside around the window of each door.
I assume water in the door is not good.
Does anyone have any tips/suggestions to stop this.
Thanks!!

It's not good. In fact it will rot the internal door frame.
You need to pull the inner garnish off, remove the glass (top and bottom if it's a double pane and apply sealant to the glass (outside side) after removing all the old sealant. I've done that before and used the 'no no' RTV silicone clear but Dicor will work if you have some.
