Strive to enter through the narrow gate

“Strive to enter by the narrow door [force yourselves through it], for many, I tell you, will try to enter and will not be able.” Luke 13:24 AMP

The narrow door is the gateway to Heaven, to God’s heart, and to eternal salvation; those who enter through it leave legacies of blessings to many a people.  

So strive, every day, to be a blessing to everyone around you – give them a glimpse of God, so that when you are called, you will be one of the few who get to walk through the beautiful, narrow gates to Heaven.

Only God can make it happen

"... you can't force these things.  They only come about through my Spirit..." Zechariah 4:5-7 MSG

When you find yourself frustrated by trying to force something you want or need in your life to happen, then it is time to give the request(s) to God and move on.

It is written

“…It is written… “ Matthew 4:4,7,10

Want power, want confidence, want to kick the devil where it hurts?  Then we must read, pray, and meditate over the Word of God.  Like Jesus, we too can fight off all the powers and forces of Satan by verbalizing the Word of God when we come into temptation; sin!

Friends, the Word is power! The Word is force! The Word is true, and the Word will get you through all the forces of darkness.  When we repeat what is written in the Word over our lives, the Spirit comes and fills us, surrounds us, guides us, stops the devil, and brings His promises to life.  So, make it your first and foremost priority to pray always, read the Word, listen to sermons, become a regular at a Bible believing church, find someone to fellowship with… hence, power up your mind, body, and soul.  Then, you too, will find yourself stopping sin in its tracks, pushing darkness out of your life, and opening the door for blessing.  Yes, you too, will find yourself kicking the devil right where it hurts!!
