Book excerpt: From the cradle to the pulpit, precious things have been taken from God's people. Somewhere, someone left a gate open; somewhere, someone failed to guard a gate and the enemy seized the opportunity to break in and run off with the good stuff. There is a growing, holy roar in the kingdom of God and amongst His people. They are awake and want their things back! God has provided a divine strategy to regain possession of the gates. That strategy is found in our radical obedience to Him. The battle begins with the reconstruction of individual gates first. Who's Guarding the Gates? is the engaging question that every person must ask and be prepared to answer.Nancy Robinson serves as an Elder at The Word Church in Cleveland, OH, which is under the leadership of Dr. R.A.
