“Possessing The Gates Of The Enemy”
Reference: 1 Chronicles Chapter 14
Genesis 24:60 “And they blessed Rebekah, and said unto her, Thou art our sister, be thou the mother of thousands of millions, and let thy seed possess the gate of those which hate them.”
David was a seed of Abraham, and he possessed the gate of his enemies.
Genesis 22:15-17 “And the angel of the LORD called unto Abraham out of heaven the second time, [16] And said, By myself have I sworn, saith the LORD, for because thou hast done this thing, and hast not withheld thy son, thine only son: [17] That in blessing I will bless thee, and in multiplying I will multiply thy seed as the stars of the heaven, and as the sand which is upon the sea shore; and thy seed shall possess the gate of his enemies.”
David was a biological seed of Abraham but the True and Spiritual Seed of Abraham was Jesus Christ.
David possessed the gates of his archenemies but could not overcome a greater enemy which is sin and death.
But the True Seed of Abraham, the Lamb of God, the Lamb Who was slain, defeated every enemy. He defeated sin, He defeated diseases, He defeated the Devil, and He defeated death itself.
David defeats his enemies.
Let’s read:
1 Chronicles 14:1-13 “Now Hiram king of Tyre sent messengers to David, and timber of cedars, with masons and carpenters, to build him an house. [2] And David perceived that the LORD had confirmed him king over Israel, for his kingdom was lifted up on high, because of his people Israel. [3] And David took more wives at Jerusalem: and David begat more sons and daughters. [4] Now these are the names of his children which he had in Jerusalem; Shammua, and Shobab, Nathan, and Solomon, [5] And Ibhar, and Elishua, and Elpalet, [6] And Nogah, and Nepheg, and Japhia, [7] And Elishama, and Beeliada, and Eliphalet. [8] And when the Philistines heard that David was anointed king over all Israel, all the Philistines went up to seek David. And David heard of it, and went out against them. [9] And the Philistines came and spread themselves in the valley of Rephaim. [10] And David enquired of God, saying, Shall I go up against the Philistines? and wilt thou deliver them into mine hand? And the LORD said unto him, Go up; for I will deliver them into thine hand. [11] So they came up to Baal–perazim; and David smote them there. Then David said, God hath broken in upon mine enemies by mine hand like the breaking forth of waters: therefore they called the name of that place Baal–perazim. [12] And when they had left their gods there, David gave a commandment, and they were burned with fire. [13] And the Philistines yet again spread themselves abroad in the valley.”
The Enemy will not stop coming to try the child of God but as long us you are indwelled by the Spirit of God,the Spirit by Whom Jesus Christ defeated every enemy, the child of God will possess the gates of sin, sickness, Satan, and death itself.
We conclude our reading:
1 Chronicles 14:14-17 “Therefore David enquired again of God; and God said unto him, Go not up after them; turn away from them, and come upon them over against the mulberry trees. [15] And it shall be, when thou shalt hear a sound of going in the tops of the mulberry trees, that then thou shalt go out to battle: for God is gone forth before thee to smite the host of the Philistines. [16] David therefore did as God commanded him: and they smote the host of the Philistines from Gibeon even to Gazer. [17] And the fame of David went out into all lands; and the LORD brought the fear of him upon all nations.”
Our Heavenly David defeated every enemy on the Cross. Therefore God has given Him a Name.
Philippians 2:8-11 “And being found in fashion as a man, he humbled himself, and became obedient unto death, even the death of the cross. [9] Wherefore God also hath highly exalted him, and given him a name which is above every name: [10] That at the name of Jesus every knee should bow, of things in heaven, and things in earth, and things under the earth; [11] And that every tongue should confess that Jesus Christ is Lord, to the glory of God the Father.”
Every disease bows to the Name Jesus Christ.
Every sin bows to the Name Jesus Christ.
Every demon and devil bow to the Name Jesus Christ.
Even death bows to the Name Jesus Christ.
There is no other Name. No other Nome. No other Name but Jesus Christ.
Let the Word of God bring you to the Name. BELIEVE and confess Christ the Word as we’ve revealed Him from the First Adam. One Name that has defeated every enemy, in Christ!
