Possessing the Gates by Guest Laura Gagnon
There is a specific promise that God has been speaking to me about
recently. It’s found in Genesis 24:60. Abraham’s servant went in search for a
bride for Abraham’s son, Isaac. Holy Spirit led the man to just the right woman
and she agreed to come back with him to be Isaac’s wife, but before she left,
her family, household servants and friends gathered together to pronounce a
blessing upon her.
This is what they said: “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.” (Genesis 24:60 KJV)
It sounds very similar to what God told Abraham years earlier,
when He promised a miraculous birth to an older, infertile couple. “I will
bless her and will surely give you a son by her. I will bless her so that she
will be the mother of nations; kings of peoples will come from her."
(Genesis 17:16)
The promise was repeated again in the life of Isaac’s son, Jacob.
“I will surely bless you and make your descendants as numerous as the stars in
the sky and as the sand on the seashore. Your descendants will take possession
of the cities of their enemies…” (Genesis 22:17)
Allow me to call your attention to the word ‘Gates’ in Genesis
24:60. The promise to multiply and be fruitful is one part of the promise, but
possessing the gates of enemies is quite another. Some translations say ‘take
over the affairs of the city.’
The gate was where all the central activity of that city occurred. Judicial matters and court settlements occurred at the gate. The gate of the city was also where business transactions took place and messages were heralded. If a person wanted to deliver a message that would reach the masses, they announced it at the gate. It was the center of marketplace activity as well. A gate, also referred to as a door, is an entrance or an exit into something greater.

God’s intent is to give us far more victories than what we might imagine!
His desire is to give us strategies to take authority over whatever "Mountain"
may stand in our path. God has already given us a promise that it’s His desire
for us to overcome it. Whether it’s a health issue, an issue with someone on
the job, enemies in the natural such as ISIS or even our own government
agencies implementing corrupt policies; God wants us to exercise our God-given
dominion so that the Kingdom
of God
As God’s children we declare His kingdom come, His will be done
– on earth as it is in heaven.
I was talking to a woman the other night that was struggling in
her work environment. She mentioned that there were members of a witches’ coven
in her workplace. When I asked where she worked, it was a very prominent place.
Important decisions that affected everyone in our nation were made in the very
place she worked, and that was where the enemy had his people in place.
It
didn’t surprise me, but it did jolt me awake a bit to realize that we too, as
God’s ambassadors, need to be on our toes all the time, declaring
God’s kingdom in all of our circumstances. We need to declare His word over all
the power of the enemy so as to ‘possess the gates of our enemies.’ Friends,
don’t let evil go unchecked.
Set down the boundaries established by the Lord in
His word. Find the scriptures that speak to your particular situation and
enforce the King’s Law – in your home, workplace, and community. Never
underestimate the power of your declarations! You never know what evil you stop
in it’s tracks by doing so. And, by doing this, you make room for the Kingdom of God
