Portalsgate online radio is a biblically sound platform that offers a well-balanced, prophetic leadership perspective for personal and corporate kingdom lifestyle development. The dynamics of breaking into a new proclaimed day of the coming of the kingdom of God demand a new position in the Spirit with an advanced prophetic sight that carries the courage to express the new day of the Lord in the earth with boldness and accuracy of kingdom truth representation. The Body of Christ is now being invited to wear the entire four face ministry of the Cherubim, even as we advance in light
NATION IN FOCUS AND KINGDOM DEVOTIONAL PRAYERS. INTRODUCTION. PSALM 2:7-8.
LORD, OPEN MY EYES TO THINGS IN THEIR TRUE NATURE There’s no doubt that the Saints have entered a higher dimension of the Lord’s prophetic counsel, even as the age of the kingdom-orient lifestyle dawns upon the earth. Indeed, this new era is drawing the line between two main camps. With the current global political agenda, there is hardly any middle ground or undecided territory left in the Church of the Lord. There was a time in history when people could still sit on the fence with an onlooker attitude. However, such a time is long gone. The day of lukewarmness and apathy towards the things of God is rapidly becoming a thing of the past. You are either working towards the side of light, or you are working towards the side of darkness. With the current state of things in today's society, remaining indifferent is no longer an option. The forces of darkness are currently using every tool they have to try and pull the world and weak members of the Body of Christ over to their side for obvious reasons. All the resources and systems are being deployed to serve the interests of darkness. Therefore, we need to wake up as the Church of Christ in this season, with the authority and power given to us by Christ to resist the forces of evil, as we continue to establish the reality of God's presence and kingdom within hearts across society. In the current reality, where the kingdom of darkness is pushing to frustrate the lives of humans by taking away their hope, the Father is awakening a new sense of spiritual urgency in his Body to be more resolute than ever before. As we move forward on the spiritual pathway of wisdom and revelation, we are slowly gaining a better understanding of the ways and will of the Father for us. Even though the enemy is trying to convince the world of a false story, the Father's prophetic desire and intention for this new day continue to grow and develop, due to the relentless prayer and intercession of the Saints. To stay relevant in the divine activity of this season, one of the prophetic virtues we must always possess is the quality of our intercessory mandate. For some time now, we have been saying that the focus of intercession has shifted from what we were formerly accustomed to. This is the third day of God’s prophetic activity. The way we approach the things of the kingdom in this hour is much more different from the way we understood them even just a few years ago. Therefore, it is imperative that we submit ourselves to the instruction and leadership of the Holy Spirit, so that we can be given the insight and wisdom we need to know the Lord and his ways better. --- Send in a voice message: https://podcasters.spotify.com/pod/show/isaiah-phillips-akintola/message

CALIBRATE YOUR PROPHETIC SIGHT FOR KINGDOM ADVANCEMENT.
CALIBRATE YOUR PROPHETIC SIGHT We can literally miss an important prophetic activity, which is uttering the topography of the earth when we are distracted by lesser issues and challenges that do not have significance in terms of our assignment as gatekeepers and watchmen on the wall. Secondly, we can miss a prophetic season or moment when there are several, rapid prophetic unfolding due to the nature of the season, and we become fixative by what I call minor notes. These notes or activities are important, but they are not just expedient in relating to the things they desire us to observe, we can enter the next phase of heaven’s intention. Elijah said to Elisha, you can receive what you’ve asked for WHEN YOU SEE ME GO. We can still be distracted by and even miss the speakings and comings of the Lord while we claim to be busy serving the Lord. Being precise and active in the will of God for the moment is a power art we need to learn and practice regularly if we must stay on the cutting edge of the Spirit. --- Send in a voice message: https://podcasters.spotify.com/pod/show/isaiah-phillips-akintola/message

GUIDED BY THE LEADING OF THE SPIRIT OF GOD. KINGDOM DEVOTIONAL SERRIES 54.
LORD, OPEN MY EYES TO THINGS IN THEIR TRUE NATURE I know, O LORD, that a man’s way is not his own; no one who walks directs his own steps. Jeremiah 10:21 There’s no doubt that the Saints have entered a higher dimension of the Lord’s prophetic counsel, even as the age of the kingdom-orient lifestyle dawns upon the earth. Indeed, this new era is drawing the line between two main camps. With the current global political agenda, there is hardly any middle ground or undecided territory left in the Church of the Lord.

THE MANIFESTATION OF THE DAYS OF ELIJAH. SESSION 20.
THE MANIFESTATION OF THE DAYS OF ELIJAH. THE CALL TO PRAY. SESSION 20. THERE'S AN UPGRADE OF KNOWLEDGE AND WISDOM FROM THE HOLY ONE THAT WILL CONFOUND THE OPERATIONAL PHILOSOPHY OF THE AGE; AS THE SPIRIT OF THE LORD INSTRUCTED NOAH TO BUILD WITH A HIGHER KNOWLEDGE AND WISDOM SUCH THAT THE ARK PROVIDED A WAY OF ESCAPE IN THE DAYS OF CALAMITY AND DESTRUCTION, THE LORD IS AWAKENING THE SAME OPERATION OF WISDOM WITHIN HIS SAINT IN THIS SEASON. We live in days of two profound activities, powerfully shaping both the current and future destiny of man and creation. The current groaning of the earth and creation are extreme pointers to the nearness of the kingdom of God and the closeness of the day of redemption, and this simply means that there's a need for a readjustment of our vision, wineskin, and prophetic posture. To precisely build the preferred spiritual system, capable of bringing the Saints unto the mountain of representation and governmental authority, we need to keenly adhere to the present demand of the Spirit. How we perceive this new day or season will ultimately be determined by the sound, quality, and spiritual update we’re able to effectively engage our spiritual structure. Wisdom is building a house that perfectly represents and reflects the Father’s prophetic agenda for creation. The true objective of fasting, as it is captured in the book of Acts of the Apostle, underscores the power of community. It is said the brethren had all things in common. It is clear from what the Lord was emphasizing according to the prophetic writings of Isaiah that fasting is meant to help the ecclesia live and work in the Spirit of a common kingdom agenda. Thus, the description in the entire chapter of Isaiah 58 was a clear testimony to how critical correct fasting means to God for the healing of his people. Matters of mutual faith, unity, service, compassion, and respect for each member as a society were high in God’s mind, rather than the attitude of selfishness, pride, oppression, feast fighting, and other forms of injustice seen among the Israelites. Fasting to God’s people should foster faith and a covenanted lifestyle that should accelerate the purposes of the Father. Rather, what was described by the people of Israel was the complete opposite of what the Father desires to see among them. It is clear that there is more than one reason for fasting. Yet, the foundational value of fasting should not be mistaken for, or taken for granted, which is the call to heart circumcision that produces the fruit of righteousness. --- Send in a voice message: https://podcasters.spotify.com/pod/show/isaiah-phillips-akintola/message

PRINCIPLE OF SPIRITUAL FITNESS AND THE POWER OF GOD. PART 14.
PRINCIPLE OF SPIRITUAL FITNESS AND THE POWER OF GOD. PART 14. ROMANS CHAPTER 7 AND 8 PROVIDES AN IN-DEPTH CASE STUDY THAT ANY SERIOUS FOLLOWER OF CHRIST SHOULD BE INTERESTED IN, PARTICULARLY IF WE ARE SERIOUS ABOUT THE DEVELOPMENT AND STRENGTHENING OF THE SPIRIT MAN, OR THE HIDDEN MAN OF THE HEART, AS CORRECTLY STATED BY THE KING JAMES TRANSLATION. PAUL CORRECTLY DIAGNOSED THE PROBLEM AND THE REASON WHY WE NEED TO TRAIN OUR SPIRIT IF WE ARE SERIOUS ABOUT WALKING BY THE POWER OF THE LIFE AND AUTHORITY HEAVEN HAS MADE AVAILABLE FOR US. YES, WE NEED TO ADDRESS THE ISSUE OF SPIRITUAL WEAKNESS. A LACK OF SPIRITUAL STRENGTH IS THE PRIMARY OBSTACLE THAT HAS STOPPED MANY BELIEVERS FROM LIVING THEIR LIVES TO THE FULLEST POTENTIAL AND EXPERIENCING THE POWER OF CHRIST THAT RESIDES WITHIN THEM. HE STARTED BY SHARING HIS OWN PERSONAL STORY OF SPIRITUAL WEAKNESS, AND HOW IT PREVENTED HIM FROM DOING THE THINGS HE LOVED, ACCORDING TO THE LAWS OF GOD. HE SPOKE ABOUT THE INTERNAL STRUGGLE HE CONSTANTLY FACES BETWEEN THE PART OF HIM THAT WANTS TO LIVE ACCORDING TO THE LAW OF CHRIST AND THE PART OF HIM THAT WANTS TO LIVE ACCORDING TO HIS NATURAL, SINFUL DESIRES. SO, AS WE COMMENCE THIS STUDY, I WANT TO EXPLORE THIS BACKGROUND AS A FOUNDATIONAL INTRODUCTION AND UNDERSTANDING, TO APPRECIATE WHY WE NEED SPIRITUAL FITNESS IN THE ERA OF SERIOUS SPIRITUAL WARFARE. THE MAIN ISSUE THAT MOST CHRISTIANS FACE IS NOT THAT THE DEVIL IS STRONGER, BUT THAT WE LACK THE ABILITY TO TAKE ADVANTAGE OF THE LIFE AND POWER THAT CHRIST PROVIDES US. THEREFORE, IT IS ESSENTIAL TO CONSTRUCT A ROBUST, FEARLESS SPIRITUAL PHILOSOPHY BASED ON THE GEM OF THE SPIRIT. THE NEED FOR EACH OF US TO SEE WHY WE MUST GIVE IN TO THE TRAINING OF OUR SPIRIT MAN IS SOMETHING THAT CANNOT BE UNDERSTATED. IT MUST BECOME A PRESENT PRIORITY, NOT SOMETHING TO PUSH TO LATER PROJECTS. vision for spiritual fitness. WHATEVER, WE SEEK TO CARRY OUT WITHOUT A CLEAR DEFINITE VISION THAT SETS OUT A DEFINE MISSION AND PURPOSE, WILL AT SOME POINT FIZZLE OUT, OR JUST DIE NATURALLY. VISION, FOR WHATEVER PURPOSE SUSTAINS AND HANDLES ALL PRESSURE, EVEN THE ONE THAT TEMPTS US TO QUIT BEFORE SUCCESS IS ACHIEVED. I AM LAYING THIS BACKGROUND INSIGHT AS A FRAMEWORK THAT GIVES US THE VISION FOR WHAT IS PROPHETICALLY PEND DOWN IN THIS ARTICLE, WHICH I STRONGLY BELIEVE YOU WILL CAREFULLY AND PRAYERFULLY READ BECAUSE IT CARRIES THE POTENTIAL TO STIR AND REAWAKEN YOUR PASSION AND QUEST FOR SPIRITUAL RESPONSIBILITY AND ADVANCEMENT. THOSE WHO GOES INTO STRICT TRAINING IN COMPETING FOR A SPORT CAREER UNDERSTAND WHAT IS AT STACK. WINNING A GOLD MEDAL AT A SPORT EVENT, SOMETIME COULD BE CONSIDERED AS LUCK BY SOME INDIVIDUALS WHO ALSO MIGHT HAVE PARTICIPATED. BUT IF THE SAME PERSON WHO WON DID IT FOR FIVE CONSECUTIVE YEARS IN A ROLE, THEN, THAT IS NO LONGER A WIN BY ACCIDENT OR LUCK. IT IS A PROOF THAT THAT SUCH A PERSON IS, INDEED, A CHAMPION, A MASTER OF HIS CRAFT IN WINNING HIS GAMES. LIFE IS NOT A GAME OF CHANCE, BUT ONE ESTABLISHED ON THE FOUNDATION OF VISIONARY FOCUS TO FULFIL THE BURNING MANDATE OF ONE’S EXISTENCE. SPIRITUAL FITNESS IS ALMOST THE OPPOSITE OF WHAT WE THINK AND LOOK AT THE IDEA OF FITNESS FROM A HUMAN PERSPECTIVE. EVERYTHING WE THINK ABOUT AND UNDERSTAND AS FITNESS EITHER FROM THE PHYSICAL OR MENTAL POSITION IS ALSO THE OPPOSITE OF WHAT SPIRITUAL FITNESS IS ALL ABOUT. PAUL, PUT IT THIS WAY ACCORDING TO 2 CORINTHIANS 12:10, WHEN I AM WEAK, THEN I AM STRONG. IF WE ARE TO UNDERSTAND AND OPERATE IN THE DIMENSION OF SPIRITUAL FITNESS, THEN WE MUST LOOK AT HOW THE BIBLE DEFINES SPIRITUAL FITNESS. WE CANNOT PRESUME ON THE MATTER. --- Send in a voice message: https://podcasters.spotify.com/pod/show/isaiah-phillips-akintola/message

THE PRINCIPLE AND VISION FOR SPIRITUAL FITNESS. SESSION 12.
SPIRITUAL FITNESS IS ALMOST THE OPPOSITE OF WHAT WE THINK AND LOOK AT THE IDEA OF FITNESS FROM A HUMAN PERSPECTIVE. EVERYTHING WE THINK ABOUT AND UNDERSTAND AS FITNESS EITHER FROM THE PHYSICAL OR MENTAL POSITION IS ALSO THE OPPOSITE OF WHAT SPIRITUAL FITNESS IS ALL ABOUT. PAUL, PUT IT THIS WAY ACCORDING TO 2 CORINTHIANS 12:10, WHEN I AM WEAK, THEN I AM STRONG. IF WE ARE TO UNDERSTAND AND OPERATE IN THE DIMENSION OF SPIRITUAL FITNESS, THEN WE MUST LOOK AT HOW THE BIBLE DEFINES SPIRITUAL FITNESS. WE CANNOT PRESUME ON THE MATTER. IN FACT, MANY OF US, IF NOT, ALL OF US KNOW WHAT PHYSICAL FITNESS ALL IS. AND THOSE IN THE MARKETPLACE HAVE A GREAT DEAL OF THE KNOWLEDGE AND ADVANTAGE OF MENTAL FITNESS, PARTICULARLY THOSE IN THE HIGHER LEVEL OF MANAGEMENT. AND FOR A FACT, THE LORD DESIRES US TO BE BOTH PHYSICALLY AND MENTALLY FIT, ESPECIALLY IF WE ARE ASSIGNMENT A MANDATE FROM HIM. AND WE CAN BORROW A GREAT OF LESSONS AND PATTERNS FROM THE WAY PEOPLE HAVE DEVELOPED AND APPLY THE PRINCIPLE OF FITNESS TO ACHIEVE GREAT THINGS IN LIFE. WE ALL NEED GOOD HEALTH AND POSITIVE MIND TO FUNCTION. WE ALL NEED TO DO SOME EXERCISE, BUT THAT IS JUST SOMETHING THAT AT LEAST WILL CARRY OUR BODY AND SOUL, BUT TO ENTER THE REALM OF SUCCESSFUL SPIRITUAL LIFE, WE NEED TO KNOW AND UNDERSTAND THE ART OF SPIRITUAL FITNESS. WE MUST HAVE A CLEAR, DEFINED INSIGHT AND UNDERSTANDING OF WHAT BIBLICAL FITNESS IS, AND THE BENEFITS IT HAS INSTORE FOR THOSE WHO PRACTISE IT WITH THE RIGHT DISCIPLINE. THE PROBLEM ARISES IF WE TRY TO MIX MEANING OF HOW FITNESS FUNCTION PHYSICALLY OR MENTALLY. --- Send in a voice message: https://podcasters.spotify.com/pod/show/isaiah-phillips-akintola/message
