In Matthew 16:18 we are told that the gates of hell will not prevail against the church. Despite all opposition, regardless of its source, what God has intended for us will come to pass. God has created good works in Christ, before the foundation of the world, that we should do. He called us intentionally and purposefully, He sanctified us and set us apart and He placed His glory upon us and within us, giving us all things necessary and essential to fulfilled what He has purposed, so nothing in hell, heaven, the earth or beneath the earth will prevent God’s kingdom from coming and His will being done.
