Prophetic Word - September 2020
Over the last month I have had a progressive sense that the church worldwide is heading towards a decisive moment in time. The words that have come to me over the last few days are, "The battles greatest encounter is about to begin !"
There is a feeling that the battle is NOT with the enemy but a battle with identity. A battle with the way the church sees itself, the way it acts, who it is listening to and where it is focusing. A battle that either triumphs in the glory of the Spirit or fades in surrender to the world.
I felt that the object of the enemy was to make every believer feel there is no time at all and that there is no place safe from destruction. I felt this was an object that has been successfully attained.
I felt the enemy strategy was to immerse believers in his work, to make us become obsessed with his work, to live and accept the reporting of all events. That the fate of everything has become our passion.
And as believers we have stood with breathless expectation waiting for things to happen around us.
But God has been constantly reminding us our our inheritance, our Sonship and our authority. He is shouting to us that we are born into a royal family. A royal family of heaven's influence and glory. He is shouting to us His aspirations so that His glory is released throughout the earth through each of us. He is reminding us that we are named after our Father and we carry the name of our Father. We are made in the image of our Father.
That God in Christ became the Great Adventurer. The heart of God is adventure not compromise. The heart of God is passion, delight and desire, not separation, passivity. The heart of God is glory, that glory of God would cover the earth.
I then heard in my heart these questions, but what can we do? For everything seems to have taken a life of its own?
As I sat and thought about these questions God started to speak this to me.
God says, "There is a scarlet column moving forward. A red army, dressed in the scarlet blood of the cross. It is a massive column. I have awakened this column and I have sharpened them to sense the power of the Holy Spirit. I have sharpened them to move in the overflow of my Spirit. I have given them the ability to jump the fences put before them and with loud cheers they will declare the day of the Lord's favour. They will declare the finished work of Christ at the cross. They will declare the unconditional love of God. "
"And I have focused my goodness on them and they will focus their eyes on me. They will not look to the right or to the left. The will not look to destruction but will focus on life. They will not focus on the fate of everything but they will focus on the promises of God in Christ. I have focused on them and they will focus on me. For where their focus is will determine the battle."
"Let your words be words of VICTORY. Let your speech be full of my victory. Let conversation by full of my victory. I have released my euphoric energy of the cross. I have given you the euphoric energy of the Holy Spirit. Let the victory of the cross be the language of life to each other and to the world. Let believer's unite with one mind and one Spirit in the victory of the cross. Let us be filled and declare my victory. "
