The Narrow Gate – your Lion Bite word for today

The way ahead is like a narrow gate. Can you see it? Can you feel how  I am calling you to go through the narrow path? Look ahead not to the big open and wide gates that everyone can walk through, which bring destruction but look to that narrow gate. Look to the way I am calling you to walk; will you go through it?

It is narrow because you can not take anything with you. No pain from the past, wounds, disappointments or worries. This time as you approach the gate is for refining. The stripping away of the old wounds, the old ways and the religious mindsets which have burdened you. It is time to throw off the former things and enter into this new season, the new era with nothing but Jesus. 

Activations: Ask God what you are holding onto, stopping you from entering through the narrow gate. Then give him everything of the old and the things you can’t take through and ask God to make you narrow, ready to walk the way you haven’t gone before. 

Matthew 7:13-14 NIV

“Enter through the narrow gate. For wide is the gate and broad is the road that leads to destruction, and many enter through it. But small is the gate and narrow the road that leads to life, and only a few find it.

Luke 13:24 NIV

“Make every effort to enter through the narrow door, because many, I tell you, will try to enter and will not be able to.
