Personal Prayer
Praise Jesus, who is the gate of salvation (Jn. 10:7-10). Thank him for bringing you through that gate and for the security you find inside. Confess those times when you seek security in something other than Jesus. Commit yourself to being a doorkeeper in the house of God rather than dwelling in the tents of wickedness (Ps. 84:10). Ask God to use you to attract those outside of Christ to enter into a saving relationship with him.

For Your Family and Friends
Pray that those close to you will have thankful hearts in every situation.

For the Church
Pray that your church will march triumphantly against the hosts of Satan, with the assurance that the gates of hell cannot prevail against God’s church (Mt. 16:18).

For the Kingdom
Pray for the protection of God’s people throughout the world. Ask that they will strongly resist Satan’s attacks (Jas. 4:7).

For People to Know Jesus
Pray that you will open your doors of love to those outside of Christ, that some may yet gain entrance to the door of heaven.

Prayer Pointer
