blogs and articles to inform and inspire

The Gate Posts may include inspiring blogs or articles from Gate leaders and friends of The Gate as well as announcements and other informatoin to keep you informed about activities at The Gate DC.  We will be adding new information frequently so check back often.  We are always looking to see what the Lord is saying to the Church during each season we enter into and you may find contemporary words or messages here that we believe need prayerful consideration.  The Gate is a House of Prayer and Fire for the People of His Presence.     

The River of His Presence is Constantly Flowing

Recently, during intercession with a group from The Gate DC, I was struck by the love of God and how He comes both while in prayer and in the joy of living in His will. While these are two different activities, He always shows Himself as a servant lover and powerful King. He never changes, He is always the Lord of Glory, in whatever we do He seeks to draw our attention.

He is both tender and the supreme King. In the grip of His powerful love, He changes our hearts to be lik

There is a New Sound: The Sound of the Heart of God

by: Steven and Maryann

You can hear it in worship, but it's not born from worship. It's born from the heart of God and revealed through Holy Spirit. No sound of God's Love will have a worship leader's name on it, but every true worship leader will want it because that's what the Body of Christ will yearn for. It will be a sound that draws every person destined to know Jesus, the Savior of all who come to Him. They will come to the sound of His call, the voice of the Bridegroom King calling the B

Ordinary vrs Extraordinary Living (part 2)

Have you ever asked Holy Spirit to let you see what is over certain cities and nations? You will need divine revelation and strategies to know how to intercede and pray for them.

 When there were wars and many different things happening, Holy Spirit would specifically show me things to pray about and how to pray. When you know His heart concerning different situations, your prayers will be very strategic and powerful! 

 Can you hear His army gathering? Do you hear the sounds

Ordinary Living vs. Extraordinary Living

by: Jill Austin

 In the new year, do we want to be ordinary or extraordinary in our walk with God? His invitation is extended to us. Either way we choose, He loves us dearly and stands by us always!

 We can love Him with all of our hearts, obey Him and walk in His ways all of our days and do things He wants us to be and to do.

 OR

 We can embrace a deeper work of the cross in our lives that brings more sensitivity to the Holy Spirit’s leading, deeper intimacy, increased anointing with power,

Out of Our Innermost Being

by: Steven LeVine & Corey Russell

"...Adam and Eve were created for union with Jesus. This was the Divine purpose behind the creation of humanity. God desired to unite Himself with a part of His creation and, through the union, release the flow of divine life to the rest of the created order. We were made to connect with God, Spirit-to-spirit, and then release supernatural life in the natural realm. The three-part nature of humanity and the design of the human spirit is God’s statement of His desire for in

Ambassadors of Love

We pursue the love of God in ways that make a path to freedom for those who need salvation, healing and deliverance. This is the path of love that reaches out to both the lost and all those who need healing, sent by the God who seeks to release kindness and freedom for all. This freedom liberates us all from the effects of the enemy who seeks to destroy humankind and keep as many as possible from the Kingdom of God.

As we have received God's endgame, His Kingdom, let us rel

  Acts 19:8-10 - And he [Paul] went into the synagogue and spoke boldly … and this continued for two years, so that all who dwelt in Asia heard the word of the Lord Jesus, both Jews and Greeks.

 1 Corinthians 2:5 - And my speech and my preaching were not with persuasive words of human wisdom, but in demonstration of the Spirit and of power, that your faith should not be in the wisdom of men but in the power of God.

 Acts 19 is the most outstanding success story of Paul’s mis

This is a tremendous celebration ordered by the Lord through Moses to all of Israel for all of time.  Leviticus 23:33-44, Deut. 16:13-16.  All of Israel was to come up and appear before the Lord.  It is called the feast of His appearing.  It is the harvest festival and American Thanksgiving was patterned after it.  Yeshua appeared during Sukkot and shook up the religious establishment.  John 7:14-39.  Friday, September 29 at sundown begins the 7 day celebration.

Declarations During Times of Shaking

You have spoken through many or your anointed prophets that a shaking is coming.  We declare that through all things will be shaken your kingdom is an unshakeable kingdom and we will not be shaken.

It is written that in the last days men’s hearts will fail them.  Fear will grip many.  You have commanded us to not be afraid 365 times in your Word.  Our trust is in you.  Our Hope is in you. We will not be afraid.

Moses told Israel.   “Be strong and courageous.  Do not be afrai

Every family has a history they are proud of and look to for inspiration and comfort in times of significant challenges. We have a rich history in Christ, who has set the stage for our future with all its challenges and triumphs. We are His prodigy, the future church, and the residents of His House and Kingdom. Our future is His future being played out in real time in our lives. We are called into the Kingdom not as servants but as victors following Jesus, who has made us

I Know Some Giant Slayers

We meet monthly to have healing and deliverance meetings. Does that seem biblical? Yes, healing and deliverance are biblical, but should we have a regular, set-aside meeting for this purpose? Or should we expect it to be a part of our daily life, no appointment needed? It's biblical to walk in power! We have received grace to move in gifts from God given to us to heal people and even nations. Jesus is the hope, and we are the vessels that hope flows through. We are the Gia

Let The River Flow

When we come together to worship our Savior, Lord and King, Lover and Friend, we experience Him afresh. That’s what happened this past Saturday. As each one poured out the treasure received in worship, a new river began to flow. This river brings refreshing and life and has great potential for reaping a harvest because it comes from Jesus and moves by His Spirit.

 Ezekiel experienced such a river. He was led to this river by an encounter with an angel, first ankle deep, the

Cultivating a Kingdom Atmosphere

We often pray as Jesus taught us to pray, May Your Kingdom Come and Your Will Be Done on Earth as it is in Heaven. Often, we abbreviate it; On Earth as it is In Heaven or perhaps; Let your Kingdom Come. Our strongest desire if to be in the manifest presence of the King. Holy Spirit manifests His presence, the King is with us and so is His Kingdom.  We experience Him and His Kingdom! But Jesus told us the Kingdom is within and it is Righteousness, Peace and Joy in the Holy

Rights to the Kingdom

by: Steven and Maryann LeVineRuleman

06/21/2023

We have a right to the Kingdom of God because it was blood purchased by Jesus, and its citizenship was given to us. It is our Kingdom, not created by man or by some novel constitution, but declared by the scriptures and purchased by its King. The scriptures declare our ownership, rights, privileges, and citizenship to that Kingdom. While we are sojourners in this life, we are no less rightful owners and co-laborers for a Kingdom. 

 

We are at war fighting for our right to a

Intercession Brings Revival

Here we are in the middle of the Isaiah 62 Fast, and we are participating in the intercession that brings a great harvest! We pray for the nation Israel and the Jewish people who are still dispersed throughout the world to remember the everlasting covenant made with God from the days of Abraham. The prophet Hosea heard the Lord say this to Israel, “And I will betroth you forever. I will betroth you to me in righteousness and in justice, in steadfast love, and in mercy I wi
