Closing evil portals and opening divine portals.
Revelation 12:11. Keep your testimony to overcome the devil. Your testimony is that you are saved by the blood of Jesus Christ and that you walk faithfully with God until His return. Your salvation lies in your walk in holiness and in preparing your heart, soul, and everything within you for the second coming of the Lord Jesus Christ. Your prayers and Christian life should never be focused on the world, or even on your desires, feelings, and status.
There are three sacrifices you must be aware of.
- The principal sacrifice is the voice of the blood of Jesus.
- The personal sacrifice is giving your body as a living sacrifice (Roman 12). It means living under a covenant. You cannot close the portal of hell if you do not live under a covenant.
- The power sacrifice is the act of obedience beyond your desire because God has asked for it. Every portal you close, the Lord asks an act of sacrifice; that’s the power. The sacrifice of Isaac was the power sacrifice for Abraham.
The foundation is the principal sacrifice, the personal sacrifice is living under the covenant, and the obedience to the assignment is the power sacrifice. You must know who qualifies to call forth the voice of the blood of Jesus to close portals. Ask yourself whether your covenant status is valid, working, or acceptable.
