*THE HORSE GATE*

The spiritual meaning of the horse gate is spiritual warfare.
NEHEMIAH 3:28

God teaches you how to pray spiritual warfare prayers and how to fight the devil that fights you. The Bible describes the horse in these words:

I saw heaven standing open and there before me was a white horse, whose rider is called Faithful and True.With justice he judges and makes war.
REVELATION 19: 11

What sustains a believer is the ability to wage war in the spirit. You should wage war in the spirit on a daily basis

Believers must understand that their lives are not characterised by claiming and receiving, there is another side of war. The reason there is war is that there is the existence of the enemy, satan.

Satan is not the enemy of a believer,rather, the enemy of God, he tries to affect Him by fighting His children. It is therefore, this war that we engage in daily.

The Bible describes this war in EPHESIANS 6:1 and Revelation 12:7- 10

The scripture reveals the spiritual battle between Michael and his angels and satan and his angels.

It existed in the spiritual between spiritual beings angels.
The bible states that satan was cast on the earth and that was the end of the victory.

Satan came on earth and started dominating the earth,hence he was called the prince of the world ( John 12:31). However he did not hold this position for a very long time. It only lasted until Jesus came on earth.

When Jesus came on earth he defeated the enemy and took all authority from him.Today Jesus is the King of the World.

Therefore as believers we are supposed to walk in this dominion by believing in Jesus,the King. Just like Angel Michael, our war does not beocome physical, instead it focuses on the spiritual.
Hence this scripture EPHESIANS 6: 13-18

The religious attire that we have to put on reveals the kind or battle we have to fight. Without the whole amour you should not expectany victory in the spiritual world. You remain vulnerable and exposed.

The ability to engage in spiritual warfare is for the mature. It is for those who use amours effectively to gain victory.

The horse gate lands you in this state where you learn to possess by fighting for what is yours.
A mature believer should know that even though the promises of God a freely given they are not possed freely. One has to fight for their possessions.

Enter into the horse gate and start possessing what is yours by fighting the spiritual battle which is worth fighting.

PRAYERS AND DECLARATION
1. Father in the name of Jesus, i thank you for the revelation of the horse gate. I declare that i shall enter this gate today.
2. My father, my Father, stretch out your hand and fight for me today.Let all my enemies know that there is God in my life.
3. I decree and declare, by the mighty hand of Jehovah, i shall live a victorious life.
4. I decree and declare that from today onwards i shall possess my possessions
5. Every satanic force, every worker of the kingdom of darkness, occupying my territory, I cast you out right now, in the mighty name of Jesus christ.

Intercession: Levite Girlie

Psalms 100:4-5
[4] Enter his gates with thanksgiving and his courts with praise; give thanks to him and praise his name.[5] For the Lord is good and his love endures forever; his faithfulness continues through all generations

1Thessalonians5:18
[18] give thanks in all circumstances; for this is God’s will for you in Christ Jesus.

Ephesians5:20
[20] always giving thanks to God the Father for everything, in the name of our Lord Jesus.

Romans8:31-39
[31] What, then, shall we say in response to these things? If God is for us, who can be against us? [32] He who did not spare his own Son, but gave him up for us all—how will he not also, along with him, graciously give us all things? [33] Who will bring any charge against those whom God has chosen? It is God who justifies. [34] Who then is the one who condemns? No one. Christ Jesus who died—more than that, who was raised to life—is at the right hand of God and is also interceding for us. [35] Who shall separate us from the love of Christ? Shall trouble or hardship or persecution or famine or nakedness or danger or sword? [36] As it is written: “For your sake we face death all day long; we are considered as sheep to be slaughtered.” [37] No, in all these things we are more than conquerors through him who loved us. [38] For I am convinced that neither death nor life, neither angels nor demons, neither the present nor the future, nor any powers, [39] neither height nor depth, nor anything else in all creation, will be able to separate us from the love of God that is in Christ Jesus our Lord.

Isaiah 60:1-2
[1] “Arise, shine, for your light has come, and the glory of the Lord rises upon you. [2] See, darkness covers the earth and thick darkness is over the peoples, but the Lord rises upon you and his glory appears over you.

John6:68
[68] Simon Peter answered him, “Lord, to whom shall we go? You have the words of eternal life.

Romans 8:18
[18] I consider that our present sufferings are not worth comparing with the glory that will be revealed in us.

GREATNESS

Matthew 20:26-28
Greatness comes from Heavenly Father. God is calling you for greatness. For God to make you great, he seeks for you to be humble, you must have humility.

Serving others means being there for them, praying for them and loving them. It also means going all the way by doing the best for them. If you have the spirit of servanthood you will be made great.

The Bible says when Jesus died, he died for everyone. When he rose he went up to the Father, in a higher place. He now sits at the right hand of the Heavenly Father.

Greatness does not come easily. You are going to be shamed, people will fight you and spit on you, you are going to be challenged. You must pray for that greatness and you must wait patiently for it to come.

FOR GREATNESS TO COME:

-You need to work hard. You have to fast, pray and read the word of God. Greatness is not for the lazy.
-You need to confess positively about yourself. Speak good unto yourself. Declare good things into your life.

BREAK FREE FROM THE LO-DEBAR MINDSET

PROPHETIC WORD OF THE DAY:
“Then he bowed himself, and said, ‘What is your
servant, that you should look upon such a dead dog as
I?’” — 2 Samuel 9:8 (NKJV)

REVELATION:
The way you see yourself has a powerful influence on the
life you experience. When King David extended kindness to
Mephibosheth, Mephibosheth responded by calling himself a “dead dog”. Although he was the grandson of a king and the recipient of royal favor, his self-image was still shaped by rejection, limitation, and loss. Before David called him, Mephibosheth lived in Lo-Debar, a place associated with barrenness and lack. His location reflected the condition of his mindset.

Many people remain trapped in places God intends them to leave because they have accepted a small view of themselves. They focus on their weaknesses rather than God’s promises, their past failures rather than God’s purpose. God never intended His children to define themselves by their circumstances. He wants you to see yourself through His Word.

When you see yourself as blessed, favored, and called by God, your
actions, decisions, and outcomes begin to align with that truth. Faith rises when your identity agrees with what God says about you. Do not allow past experiences, people’s opinions, or present challenges to determine your worth. See yourself as God sees you; redeemed, chosen, and positioned for His purpose. A transformed life begins with a renewed mind.

GOING DEEPER:
Philippians 4:8 | Romans 12:2 | Proverbs 23:7

PROPHETIC ACTION:
Identify negative beliefs you have about yourself and replace them
with promises from God’s Word. Speak that promise over your life
every day. Renew your mind until you see yourself as God sees you.

PRAYER:
Heavenly Father, help me to see myself through Your eyes
and not through the limitations of my past. Renew my mind
and align my thoughts with Your truth. Let my identity be
rooted in who You say I am. In Jesus’ Name, Amen.

FROM THE PROPHETIC LIBRARY OF DR. SHEPHERD BUSHIRI:
“The slavery mindset occurs when a person gets accustomed to his situation. It is a preset position of the mind. If the mind is set on the wrong footing, you can guarantee that the decision will always be wrong, and often perception has nothing to do with reality.”
— “The Jesus Nation” (PSB, 2021, pg.122–123)

The Spirit of Limitation

If you have concluded that you can not have certain things in life, that they are not your portion then you have limitation.

2 Kings 4:1-3
The bible talks of a woman who's husband had died and she was in debt. She had to pay her debts and had only a jar of oil. Her creditors wanted to take her son's to be slaves in order to pay the debts. But there is a God who is able to make a way in this situation.

For you are from a chosen generation, you are coming out of the spirit of Limitation. Limitation is a demon.

You must break from your limitation. The spirit of limitation makes you lose hope, doubt God and to stop praying.

Exodus 1:11-14
The spirit of Limitation makes you think that you are not going to make it.
God wants to increase you, God wants us to branch out and break out of limitations.

Judges 16:2-3
Samson was a strong man, Samson could not be stopped by his surroundings. And just like Samson we have power to break our limitation. You should not die in your limitation. Samson broke the Gate because it was his limitation.

What was made to limit you will become your testimony.

There are signs that show limitations in your life.

1. When you have breakthrough and immediate breakdown. The spirit of almost.
2. Doors are always closed

3. Small thinking about yourself, talking down about yourself. You are fearfully and wonderfully made by God. Believe in yourself.

Mark 16:17
Limitations are devils, use the name of Jesus to break limitations.

Isaiah 54:2
Believe in the word of God by faith, and know the word of God will come to pass.

Phillipians 4:19
God will supply to all your needs.

How to break limitations?
1. Break the Gate

Psalms 24:7
Allow God to be the supplier of all your needs.
