Upon This Rock – The Gates Will Not Prevail – Pastor Justeina Brownlee
Pastor Justeina delivered a powerful warning from the gates of Caesarea Philippi, where Jesus made His bold declaration about building His church. Standing in that ancient place of idol worship and dark practices, Jesus demonstrated that even in the midst of spiritual darkness, His authority prevails. Through vivid descriptions of both ancient and modern-day spiritual battles, Pastor Justeina revealed how we can unknowingly open doors to demonic influence through idolatry, sexual immorality, occult practices, and dark entertainment. Yet her message wasn’t one of fear, but of hope and authority – reminding us that while the devil is real, he is utterly defeated through Christ. She challenged believers to recognize these spiritual realities, close any open doors to darkness, and walk confidently in the authority Jesus has given His church. The urgent call was clear: it’s time for the church to arise, shut the doors on the enemy’s influence, and boldly declare that the gates of hell shall not prevail against Christ’s church.
