Shalom, everyone! This is just a whimsical way to get us away from all the bickering. What do you think the gates of pearl will look like? ENJOY!

John 9:14,16 - "And it was the sabbath day when Jesus made the clay, and opened his eyes. Therefore said some of the Pharisees, This man is not of God, because He keepeth not the sabbath day." MOST OF THE PHARISEES SPENT THEIR LIVES SERVING GOD WITHOUT EVER DISCOVERING THE FATHER'S HEART! WHILE THE PHARISEES THOUGHT GOD WAS CONCERNED ABOUT THE SABBATH, JESUS WORKED TO HELP THE ONES THE SABBATH WAS CREATED FOR. THESE LEADERS WERE ACCUSTOMED TO THE MIRACLES OF THE SCRIPTURES REMAINING IN THE PAST. BUT JESUS BROKE INTO THEIR COMFORT ZONES BY USHERING THE SUPERNATURAL INTO THEIR CITIES. 1 Samuel 17:46 - "This day will the Lord deliver thee into mine hand; and I will smite thee, and take thine head from thee; and I will give the carcases of the host of the Philistines this day unto the fowls of the air, and to the wild beasts of the earth; that all the earth may know that there is a God in Israel. And all this assembly shall know that the Lord saveth not with sword and spear: for the battle is the Lord's, and He will give you into our hands." DAVID FRAMED HIS WORLD. BEFORE HE EVER FOUGHT GOLIATH, HE CALLED OUT WHAT THE OUTCOME WOULD BE. HE CALLED THINGS THAT BE NOT AS THOUGH THEY WERE (ROMANS 4:17). BY FAITH, DAVID SAID, "THE LORD IS GOING TO GIVE YOU INTO MY HANDS TODAY, GOLIATH, AND I'M GOING TO CUT OFF YOUR HEAD!" GOD WANTS US TO BE SUCCESSFUL IN OUR PRAYING AND IN OUR SAYING. IF HE DIDN'T WANT US TO SUCCEED, HE WOULDN'T HAVE GIVEN US A PATTERN BY WHICH WE COULD FRAME OUR WORLD. Exodus 19:14 - "You have seen what I did to the Egyptians, and how I bore you on eagles' wings and brought you to Myself." In facing their threshold or brink, marching through the "GATES" out of captivity in Egypt, Israel has to make a leap of faith. If they took the leap of faith, would God come and bear them up on eagle's wings? Bold action is always motivated by faith of some kind. Faith-filled people of God take bold action, which opens a "GATE" and releases spiritual power. Paul opened up a "GATE" in Ephesus when he boldly preached the gospel in the city. Not only were people changed but the socioeconomic system of the city was transformed as well. The city transformed (see Acts 19). Bold action opens up a "GATE" of spiritual power and blessing from God. The heavens over an area are opened in a new way. It is at the "GATES" as someone steps onto the threshold that faith and perseverance are tested. It is at the threshold where either spiritual abortion or spiritual birthing occurs. Affirmations: GOD HAS A GREAT DEAL FOR ME TO POSSESS. MY TAKING POSSESSION WILL REQUIRE GREAT FAITH AND PERSEVERANCE. GOD IS CONTINUALLY PUTTING NEW CHALLENGES BEFORE ME TO DEVELOP MY FAITH AND PERSEVERANCE AT A DEEPER LEVEL. ALBERT FINCH MINISTRY

JESUS,ascended up in "Heaven"from the "Mount of Olives",which over looks the Eastern Gates to the west............................It is the " Mount of Olives" that Jesus will return,In the LAST DAYS, Eze,44:1-3)- Then he brought me back the way of the gate of the outward Sanctuary which looketh toward the east,and it ( was shut). Then said the Lord unto me,( This Gate Shall be Shut). It shall not be opened, no man shall enter in by it,Because the lord ,the God of Israel,hath entered in by it,therefore it shall be shut. It is for the prince ,The Prince.... (What is the Symbol ,of the Gate being shut?.....................Your thoughts! Scripture indicates,that Jesus passed through this gate many times while he was in Jerusalem. Jewish religious tradition teaches that the Coming of the " Messiah " will enter Jerusalem through ( This gate )..............Rev 21:25)-And the gates of it shall not be shut at all by day,for there shall be no nite there.,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,With my understanding,these scriptures tells me (This is the Location of the "New City of Jerusalem)............................... (Whats your thoughts? Zec 14:4)-And His feet shall stand in that day upon the " Mount of Olives",which is before Jerusalem on the east,and the "Mount of Olives" shal cleave in the midst thereof toward the east and towards the west,and there shall be a very great valley,and half of the mountain shall remove toward the North,and half toward the South. Acts 1:10-12)-And while they looked steadfastly toward heaven as he went up,behold,(2) men stood by them in white appearal. which also said,Ye men of galilee,why ye stand gazing up to heaven? THIS SAME JESUS ,which is taken up from you into heaven, shall so come in like manner as ye have seen Him go into heaven.Then returned they unto Jerusalem from the " Mount of Olives". The "Messiah" will come through the "Golden Gate" or (Gate of Mercy),and bring about the resurrection of the dead in the Cemetery,on the "Mount of Olives",its a Mountain side of stone. (Your thoughts?) Blessings,With Gods Grace, 7Dove77
