Prayer for Peru. 

Gates of Hades. 

Jim Anderson. Last 20 years in high valley in Peru 

Gates of Hades are spirit portals opened by areas of particular violence or occultic practices. Like a funnel for demons. 

All through the Andes peaks are Gates of Hades established by human sacrifice. Sense of crushing weight. The city and valley named ‘I am dying.”

Development of Apostles
Apostles go through long process of testing, and are finally approved by God.

1 Corinthians 4:1- entrusted by God that 

1 Thessalonians 2: 3-4 – approved, entrusted,  tested. 

The testing is to teach us how to trust.

Also tests of honesty, integrity. 

Tests in life you don’t know it’s a test

1 Peter 1:5-7… tested genuiness of your faith. 

James 5:10-11. Remain steadfast in the Lord. 

Three stages in development of an apostle 

1. Call. 
2. Time of preparation and tests. Ministry graces. 
3. Positioned to represent Christ personally. More difficult trials. Love, maturity, humility.
