Message
Gates of adversity are seemingly insurmountable obstacles- be it an individual, kingdom or situation, obstructing the progress of a person or group of people.
Biblical examples of gates of adversity include Pharaoh with the Egyptian army, the wall of Jericho and Goliath the Philistine. Situations representative of gate of adversity include mountains, poverty, sickness, slavery, captivity, siege, and barrenness. Those who are held bound by such gates would therefore find it extremely difficult to succeed in life. These conditions have consistently proven insurmountable by human effort, but Mark 10:27 GWT
«…… It’s impossible for people [to save themselves], but it’s not impossible for God to save them. Everything is possible for God. »
God’s purpose for mankind is seen in Genesis 1:28 where God commanded us to
« ……Be fruitful, and multiply, and replenish the earth, and subdue it: and have dominion…..»
Manifestations of contrary circumstances in life are abnormalities usually brought about by sin and hidden works of the devil.
« Lift up your heads, you gates! Rise up, ancient doors! Then the King of glory will come in. »
Psalm 24:7 CSB
My Daddy- the creator of heaven and earth, the Almighty, can destroy every gate of adversity. Zechariah 4:7NLT says,
« Nothing, not even a mighty mountain, will stand in Zerubbabel’s way; it will become a level plain before him!….»
Isaiah 10:27 NLT also says
« …..and the bondage shall be destroyed because of the anointing. »
Are you troubled by any gate of adversity?
If you haven’t accepted Jesus as your Lord and Savior, do so now.
If you are born again, then commit to serving God for the rest of your life and He will fight for you.
I command every gate of adversity in your life to be destroyed now in the mighty name of Jesus.
Prayer point: Father, please uproot every gate of adversity in my life and family today, in the mighty name of Jesus.
