Hades

21-Day Fast: Day 3 - Challenging the Gates of Hades Standing Against the Work of God

And I tell you that you are Peter, and on this rock I will build my church, and the gates of Hades will not overcome it
— Mathew 16:18

We know that a gate is used to provide an entry in or out of a place. Gates control or prevent entries or exists. Sometimes gates have locks on them to enforce security. Gates are made of different forms of materials. The enemy uses gates for lots of purposes; to cage people or their blessing, as well as block breakthroughs in different aspects of life. Gates can also represents spiritual forces of wickedness standing against the promises of God. Such forces have been fighting the presentation of the true word of God for long. God has given us the weapon of prayer and His word to combat these forces. God has assured us that the gates exist but they cannot prevail because Jesus already defeated the owner of the gate; Satan.

  1. Pray that gates of demonic operations against the church must scatter by fire in Jesus name.

  2. Pray against demonic gates standing against the spreading of the gospel.

  3. Call forth the God of Elijah to arise and answer by fire. May the fire of God burn down every gate of the enemy harassing the work of God.

  4. Pray that the fire of God be released upon any security agents at the gates of the enemy and may the Lord turn these satanic agents into wood that can roast in his fire in Jesus name. Jeremiah 5:14 “Therefore this is what the Lord GOD of Hosts says: "Because you have spoken this word, I will make My words a fire in your mouth and this people the wood it will consume.”

  5. Pray that God’s word which is fire should burn down every gate of the enemy standing against you and the church of God. Jeremiah 23:29 “Is not my word like fire," declares the LORD, "and like a hammer that breaks a rock in pieces?

  6. Stand on the word of God and declare that every gate, ancient doors of the enemy standing against the glory of God in the church must scatter in Jesus name. It is time for the king of glory to enter our lives and the church. Psalm 24: 7-10 “Lift up your heads, you gates; be lifted up, you ancient doors, that the King of glory may come in.  Who is this King of glory? The Lord strong and mighty, the Lord mighty in battle. Lift up your heads, you gates; lift them up, you ancient doors, that the King of glory may come in. Who is he, this King of glory? The Lord Almighty he is the King of glory.”

  7. Isaiah 45:2-3 “I will go before you and level the mountains; I will break down the gates of bronze and cut through the bars of iron. “I will give you the treasures of darkness and the hidden riches of secret places, so that you may know that I am the LORD, the God of Israel, who calls you by name”.  Pray that as promised God will go before the church and level every mountain.

  8. Pray that every bronze gates or any form of demonic reinforcement must be broken down in Jesus name.

  9. Pray that every iron bar must scatter in Jesus name.

  10. Pray that the church must recover every treasure hidden behind the gates of the enemy.

  11. Jeremiah 51:58 “This is what the LORD of Hosts says: "Babylon's thick walls will be leveled, and her high gates consumed by fire. So the labor of the people will be for nothing; the nations will exhaust themselves to fuel the flames."   Pray that every Babylonian walls preventing the work of God should catch fire and scatter in Jesus name.

  12. Acts 16:26 “and suddenly there came a great earthquake, so that the foundations of the prison house were shaken; and immediately all the doors were opened and everyone's chains were unfastened.”  Call forth the earthquake of the Lord to shake the foundations of every satanic prisons and break down every prison door of Satan over the church in Jesus name.

Add as lead by the Spirit of God for this is only a guide.
