Advancing Encouragement By:
Bishop James Jr. Hairston
Acts: 12:10: When they were past the first and the second ward, they came unto the Iron Gate that leaded unto the city; which opened to them of his own accord: and they went out, and passed on through one street; and forthwith the angel departed from him.
This historical event happened in the life of Apostle Peter when God sent an angel to rescue Peter from prison and broke the chains to set him free, verse 7. I believe in angels and God sends them to us to minister to us as protectors and guides in our lives. Hebrews: 1:13: But to which of the angels said he at any time, Sit on my right hand, until I make thine enemies thy footstool? 14: Are they not all ministering spirits, sent forth to minister for them who shall be heirs of salvation? In Hebrews 13:2 we also can entertain an angel unawares. The angel in the text after breaking the chains he opened the Iron Gate like it appeared opened automatically when they arrived to the Gate! Amazingly so they were able to pass through the Iron Gate without any complications or problems and it was set forth as an ministering angel sent by God to rescue Peter, verse 11. Peter was delivered from all of those who were trying to hold him back from doing the work God has called him to do. People will get in the way of progress and try to prevent the work of God to continue on or to inter into success. Yet, God has already ordained in your life and in mine that the expectations of others have no bearing on Gods predestination for our lives. Meaning right now as we speak the doors and Iron Gates that may have been closed on your success, by you trusting in God being patient and not giving up on God and yourself He is sending an angel, someone who has the authority to open those doors and Iron Gates in your life. Help is on the way and I declare and decree it right now in Jesus name on behave of all of those who are reading or listening to this message. Those Iron Gates are going to appear automatically open in your life but it will be up to you to walk through them. Do not worry about the opposition that maybe around you right now you will be able to pass right through them and walk into your destiny. Believe it my friend, trust in God with all your heart and lean not to your own understanding, Proverbs 3:5, He will see you through to become successful and victorious in what He has called you to do. Today my friend, trust God and say, ‘My Door Opened right now’ and I am preparing to walk through it in Jesus Name…
