“And
it shall come to pass afterward, that
I will pour out my spirit upon all flesh; and your sons and your daughters
shall prophesy, your old men shall dream dreams, your young men shall see
visions:
And also upon the servants and upon the handmaids
in those days will I pour out my spirit.
And I will shew wonders in the heavens and in the
earth, blood, and fire, and pillars of smoke.
And it shall come to pass, that whosoever shall call on the name
of the LORD shall be delivered: for in mount Zion and in Jerusalem shall be
deliverance, as the LORD hath said, and in the remnant whom the LORD shall call.”
(Joel
2:28-30, 32)
Beloved,
as the coming of Our Lord draws near, each time a desperate soul cries out
to the Lord, he/she is immediately washed clean by the precious blood that flowed
out of His broken body, the BLOOD shed for the remission of our sins. And the
Spirit of the Lord is poured out on the sinner who is now sealed by the Holy
Spirit as a son of God; a bar Yahweh.
Day
by day the denominational barriers, divisions created by the enemy, wither as
the sons and daughters of God are brought together under Grace. Daddy is pouring out His
mighty Holy Spirit on all flesh, as prophesied by the prophet Joel; the Son of
God baptizing the redeemed in the Dunamis
power of the Spirit.
The
earth today is reverberating with the sound of an army rising, as the sons and
daughters of God prophesy and old men dream dreams and young men see visions of the Day of the Lord. Hallelujah!!
“Finally, my brothers, be strong in the Lord and in the power of His
might.
Put on the whole armor of God so that you may be
able to stand against the wiles of the devil.”
(Ephesians
6:10-11)
The
Lion of Judah has roared. His breath of life, enervating the weakest saints,
the warmth of His very presence, the love in His eyes causes them to rise up
from the darkness into His perfect light, where the blood of Jesus washes away
all unrighteousness without ceasing (1 John 1:7).
The
enemy trembles at the very mention of His name. The redeemed shout, “Our Redeemer
lives”. The prison of Sin crumbles before Jehovah Sabbaoth.
“The
enemy has been defeated, the Lion of Judah has prevailed” echoes through the
camp. The weapons of our warfare are not
of this world, but are mighty through God to the pulling down of strongholds…”
(2 Corinthians 10:4); the armor of God,
as Paul mentions in the book of Ephesians, is handed out to each new recruit
who joins the ranks.
The
fiery darts of unbelief are rendered useless against the shield of Faith (Ephesians 6:16).
Blows
of deception cannot shatter the helmet
of Salvation (Ephesians 6:17).
Spears
of condemnation cannot penetrate the breastplate
of Righteousness (Ephesians 6:14).
The belt of Truth protects the honor of
the saints in battle (Ephesians 6:14).
Step
by step the army moves forward, the shoes
of Peace (Ephesians 6:15) on each soldier conquering territorial oppression
with the power of the Gospel, the gates of hell will not prevail (Matthew
16:18).
The
armor prevails against every attack of the enemy and He who is able to keep us
from falling (Jude1:24) keeps us and presents us without fault to the Father. But
there is more to this battle. The Son of
God said, “In this world you will have tribulation...” (John 16:33b). The enemy
comes at us with sorrow, discouragement and physical sickness.
But
the Holy Spirit is within us, He will never leave nor forsake us (Hebrews 13:5),
at such times He reminds us of what lies nestled in the belt of Truth and our
spirits shout out the Living Word, “..the Son of God said “….but be of good
cheer for I have overcome the World”
(John 16:33b)”; the Living Word of God, a mighty two edged sword, a weapon of
offense, glistening in true LIGHT of the world, Jesus. It is a discerner of the
truth (Hebrews 4:12) that can slice the fog of deceit; and a destroyer of every
demonic deception and oppressive influence over our lives. Jesus said in John 14:26
and 16:8-11 and 16:14-15, the Spirit will
teach us all things and remind us of
what He taught; convicting us of the
righteousness that we have received through faith in the work of the Son. Amen!!
Each
verse brought into our spirits by the Spirit of God is a powerful blow to the
enemy. Jesus said “I have given you authority to trample on snakes and
scorpions and the overcome every power of the enemy”(Luke 10:19). No demon, no
power can stand when a saint wields the SWORD
OF THE SPIRIT which is the WORD OF GOD (Ephesians 6:17)!! Hallelujah!!
For
the Word of God is living and
powerful and sharper than any two-edged sword, piercing even to the dividing apart of soul and
spirit, and of the joints and marrow, and is a discerner of the thoughts and
intents of the heart. (Hebrews 4:12)
Jesus said, “Peace I
leave with you, My peace I give to
you. Not as the world gives do I give to you. Let not your heart be troubled, neither let it be afraid.” Beloved
the war is over, we are more than conquerors in Jesus’ mighty name (Romans
8:37). All praise and adoration to the Father, Son and Holy Spirit!! Amen!!
Be
blessed in the name of Yeshua ha Maschiah!!
