The Lord Will Turn Your Enemies





During my reading today The Holy Spirit began to stir in me and bring to my remembrance some very similar and powerful instances where He delivered His people and anointed from their enemies.

Even if  the enemy that is pursuing you is somebody that you are not able to lift your own hand against, or are naturally stronger than you: Trust God to deal with them. He has His ways

We see here David, who could have taken Saul easily, honoring God by not lifting his own hand against him. 


I was reading in 1 Samuel 20:



1 Samuel 19:20-24(KJV)

20 And Saul sent messengers to take David: and when they saw the company of the prophets prophesying, and Samuel standing as appointed over them, the Spirit of God was upon the messengers of Saul, and they also prophesied.
21 And when it was told Saul, he sent other messengers, and they prophesied likewise. And Saul sent messengers again the third time, and they prophesied also.
22 Then went he also to Ramah, and came to a great well that is in Sechu: and he asked and said, Where are Samuel and David? And one said, Behold, they be at Naioth in Ramah.
23 And he went thither to Naioth in Ramah: and the Spirit of God was upon him also, and he went on, and prophesied, until he came to Naioth in Ramah.
24 And he stripped off his clothes also, and prophesied before Samuel in like manner, and lay down naked all that day and all that night. Wherefore they say, Is Saul also among the prophets?

As I meditated on these verses some other instances came up in my heart. Someone besides me needs to let these verses sink into your spirit man. Trust The Lord in a time of war. Trust Him when you are pursued or face an enemy that seems to have every advantage against you and a desire to pursue and kill you.

Here are some more instances of this type of deliverance:

Take the time to study these. Chew on The WORD until you are well prepared and confident in The LORD OF HEAVENS ARMIES!!

Here we see The Prophet that could not curse Israel. Balak was so intent on destroying Israel he thought that a prophet could somehow turn God away from His people.  In these verses we catch the last two prophecies that could not curse but only bless. (Now Balaam did teach Balak how to make Israel stumble, but that is a different post, and about self will).


Numbers 24 New King James Version (NKJV)

24 Now when Balaam saw that it pleased the Lord to bless Israel, he did not go as at other times, to seek to use sorcery, but he set his face toward the wilderness. And Balaam raised his eyes, and saw Israel encamped according to their tribes; and the Spirit of God came upon him.
Then he took up his oracle and said:
“The utterance of Balaam the son of Beor,
The utterance of the man whose eyes are opened,
The utterance of him who hears the words of God,
Who sees the vision of the Almighty,
Who falls down, with eyes wide open:
“How lovely are your tents, O Jacob!
Your dwellings, O Israel!
Like valleys that stretch out,
Like gardens by the riverside,
Like aloes planted by the Lord,
Like cedars beside the waters.
He shall pour water from his buckets,
And his seed shall be in many waters.
“His king shall be higher than Agag,
And his kingdom shall be exalted.
“God brings him out of Egypt;
He has strength like a wild ox;
He shall consume the nations, his enemies;
He shall break their bones
And pierce them with his arrows.
‘He bows down, he lies down as a lion;
And as a lion, who shall rouse him?’[a]
“Blessed is he who blesses you,
And cursed is he who curses you.”
10 Then Balak’s anger was aroused against Balaam, and he struck his hands together; and Balak said to Balaam, “I called you to curse my enemies, and look, you have bountifully blessed them these three times! 11 Now therefore, flee to your place. I said I would greatly honor you, but in fact, the Lord has kept you back from honor.”
12 So Balaam said to Balak, “Did I not also speak to your messengers whom you sent to me, saying, 13 ‘If Balak were to give me his house full of silver and gold, I could not go beyond the word of the Lord, to do good or bad of my own will. What the Lord says, that I must speak’? 14 And now, indeed, I am going to my people. Come, I will advise you what this people will do to your people in the latter days.”

Balaam’s Fourth Prophecy

15 So he took up his oracle and said:
“The utterance of Balaam the son of Beor,
And the utterance of the man whose eyes are opened;
16 The utterance of him who hears the words of God,
And has the knowledge of the Most High,
Who sees the vision of the Almighty,
Who falls down, with eyes wide open:
17 “I see Him, but not now;
I behold Him, but not near;
A Star shall come out of Jacob;
A Scepter shall rise out of Israel,
And batter the brow of Moab,
And destroy all the sons of tumult.[b]
18 “And Edom shall be a possession;
Seir also, his enemies, shall be a possession,
While Israel does valiantly.
19 Out of Jacob One shall have dominion,
And destroy the remains of the city.”
20 Then he looked on Amalek, and he took up his oracle and said:
“Amalek was first among the nations,
But shall be last until he perishes.”
21 Then he looked on the Kenites, and he took up his oracle and said:
“Firm is your dwelling place,
And your nest is set in the rock;
22 Nevertheless Kain shall be burned.
How long until Asshur carries you away captive?”
23 Then he took up his oracle and said:
“Alas! Who shall live when God does this?
24 But ships shall come from the coasts of Cyprus,[c]
And they shall afflict Asshur and afflict Eber,
And so shall Amalek,[d] until he perishes.”
25 So Balaam rose and departed and returned to his place; Balak also went his way.


And here we see The Promise God made to His people. We also see the one thing that would leave them vulnerable and unprotected.(That will be another post, as mentioned above about self will and how Balaam taught Balak how to make Israel stumble).

Exodus 23:20-33(NKJV)

The Angel and the Promises

20 “Behold, I send an Angel before you to keep you in the way and to bring you into the place which I have prepared. 21 Beware of Him and obey His voice; do not provoke Him, for He will not pardon your transgressions; for My name is in Him. 22 But if you indeed obey His voice and do all that I speak, then I will be an enemy to your enemies and an adversary to your adversaries. 
23 For My Angel will go before you and bring you in to the Amorites and the Hittites and the Perizzites and the Canaanites and the Hivites and the Jebusites; and I will cut them off. 24 You shall not bow down to their gods, nor serve them, nor do according to their works; but you shall utterly overthrow them and completely break down their sacred pillars.
25 “So you shall serve the Lord your God, and He will bless your bread and your water. And I will take sickness away from the midst of you. 26 No one shall suffer miscarriage or be barren in your land; I will fulfill the number of your days.
27 “I will send My fear before you, I will cause confusion among all the people to whom you come, and will make all your enemies turn their backs to you. 28 And I will send hornets before you, which shall drive out the Hivite, the Canaanite, and the Hittite from before you. 29 I will not drive them out from before you in one year, lest the land become desolate and the beasts of the field become too numerous for you. 
30 Little by little I will drive them out from before you, until you have increased, and you inherit the land. 31 And I will set your bounds from the Red Sea to the sea, Philistia, and from the desert to the River. For I will deliver the inhabitants of the land into your hand, and you shall drive them out before you. 
32 You shall make no covenant with them, nor with their gods. 33 They shall not dwell in your land, lest they make you sin against Me. For if you serve their gods, it will surely be a snare to you.”

I want to add a couple from The New Testament. Here we see The Lord has not changed in His will or ability to deliver by His Outstretched Arm!!

John 8:48-59(NLT)

48 The people retorted, “You Samaritan devil! Didn’t we say all along that you were possessed by a demon?”
49 “No,” Jesus said, “I have no demon in me. For I honor my Father—and you dishonor me. 50 And though I have no wish to glorify myself, God is going to glorify me. He is the true judge. 51 I tell you the truth, anyone who obeys my teaching will never die!”
52 The people said, “Now we know you are possessed by a demon. Even Abraham and the prophets died, but you say, ‘Anyone who obeys my teaching will never die!’ 53 Are you greater than our father Abraham? He died, and so did the prophets. Who do you think you are?”
54 Jesus answered, “If I want glory for myself, it doesn’t count. But it is my Father who will glorify me. You say, ‘He is our God,’ 55 but you don’t even know him. I know him. If I said otherwise, I would be as great a liar as you! But I do know him and obey him.56 Your father Abraham rejoiced as he looked forward to my coming. He saw it and was glad.”
57 The people said, “You aren’t even fifty years old. How can you say you have seen Abraham?”
58 Jesus answered, “I tell you the truth, before Abraham was even born, I am!
 59 At that point they picked up stones to throw at him. But Jesus was hidden from them and left the Temple.

Here is a Double Portion! Gods Deliverance and His Judgement on His Enemies!


Acts 12 (NLT)

James Is Killed and Peter Is Imprisoned

12 About that time King Herod Agrippa began to persecute some believers in the church. He had the apostle James (John’s brother) killed with a sword. When Herod saw how much this pleased the Jewish people, he also arrested Peter. (This took place during the Passover celebration.) Then he imprisoned him, placing him under the guard of four squads of four soldiers each. Herod intended to bring Peter out for public trial after the Passover. But while Peter was in prison, the church prayed very earnestly for him.

Peter’s Miraculous Escape from Prison

The night before Peter was to be placed on trial, he was asleep, fastened with two chains between two soldiers. Others stood guard at the prison gate. Suddenly, there was a bright light in the cell, and an angel of the Lord stood before Peter. The angel struck him on the side to awaken him and said, “Quick! Get up!” And the chains fell off his wrists. Then the angel told him, “Get dressed and put on your sandals.” And he did. “Now put on your coat and follow me,” the angel ordered.
So Peter left the cell, following the angel. But all the time he thought it was a vision. He didn’t realize it was actually happening. 10 They passed the first and second guard posts and came to the iron gate leading to the city, and this opened for them all by itself. So they passed through and started walking down the street, and then the angel suddenly left him.
11 Peter finally came to his senses. “It’s really true!” he said. “The Lord has sent his angel and saved me from Herod and from what the Jewish leaders had planned to do to me!”
12 When he realized this, he went to the home of Mary, the mother of John Mark, where many were gathered for prayer. 13 He knocked at the door in the gate, and a servant girl named Rhoda came to open it. 14 When she recognized Peter’s voice, she was so overjoyed that, instead of opening the door, she ran back inside and told everyone, “Peter is standing at the door!”
15 “You’re out of your mind!” they said. When she insisted, they decided, “It must be his angel.”
16 Meanwhile, Peter continued knocking. When they finally opened the door and saw him, they were amazed. 17 He motioned for them to quiet down and told them how the Lord had led him out of prison. “Tell James and the other brothers what happened,” he said. And then he went to another place.
18 At dawn there was a great commotion among the soldiers about what had happened to Peter. 19 Herod Agrippa ordered a thorough search for him. When he couldn’t be found, Herod interrogated the guards and sentenced them to death. Afterward Herod left Judea to stay in Caesarea for a while.

The Death of Herod Agrippa

20 Now Herod was very angry with the people of Tyre and Sidon. So they sent a delegation to make peace with him because their cities were dependent upon Herod’s country for food. The delegates won the support of Blastus, Herod’s personal assistant,21 and an appointment with Herod was granted. When the day arrived, Herod put on his royal robes, sat on his throne, and made a speech to them. 22 The people gave him a great ovation, shouting, “It’s the voice of a god, not of a man!”
23 Instantly, an angel of the Lord struck Herod with a sickness, because he accepted the people’s worship instead of giving the glory to God. So he was consumed with worms and died.
24 Meanwhile, the word of God continued to spread, and there were many new believers.
25 When Barnabas and Saul had finished their mission to Jerusalem, they returned,taking John Mark with them.

One last one. Notice the result of the New Testament Deliverance's and even trouble. People were saved, the WORD Spread and Prospered. The Gospel/The Kingdom was Advanced!

Acts 16:16-34 (NLT)

Paul and Silas in Prison

16 One day as we were going down to the place of prayer, we met a slave girl who had a spirit that enabled her to tell the future. She earned a lot of money for her masters by telling fortunes. 17 She followed Paul and the rest of us, shouting, “These men are servants of the Most High God, and they have come to tell you how to be saved.”
18 This went on day after day until Paul got so exasperated that he turned and said to the demon within her, “I command you in the name of Jesus Christ to come out of her.” And instantly it left her.
19 Her masters’ hopes of wealth were now shattered, so they grabbed Paul and Silas and dragged them before the authorities at the marketplace. 20 “The whole city is in an uproar because of these Jews!” they shouted to the city officials. 21 “They are teaching customs that are illegal for us Romans to practice.”
22 A mob quickly formed against Paul and Silas, and the city officials ordered them stripped and beaten with wooden rods. 23 They were severely beaten, and then they were thrown into prison. The jailer was ordered to make sure they didn’t escape. 24 So the jailer put them into the inner dungeon and clamped their feet in the stocks.
25 Around midnight Paul and Silas were praying and singing hymns to God, and the other prisoners were listening. 26 Suddenly, there was a massive earthquake, and the prison was shaken to its foundations. All the doors immediately flew open, and the chains of every prisoner fell off! 27 The jailer woke up to see the prison doors wide open. He assumed the prisoners had escaped, so he drew his sword to kill himself. 28 But Paul shouted to him, “Stop! Don’t kill yourself! We are all here!”
29 The jailer called for lights and ran to the dungeon and fell down trembling before Paul and Silas. 30 Then he brought them out and asked, “Sirs, what must I do to be saved?”
31 They replied, “Believe in the Lord Jesus and you will be saved, along with everyone in your household.”
32 And they shared the word of the Lord with him and with all who lived in his household. 33 Even at that hour of the night, the jailer cared for them and washed their wounds. Then he and everyone in his household were immediately baptized. 34 He brought them into his house and set a meal before them, and he and his entire household rejoiced because they all believed in God.

My Friend, I pray you meditate on these verses. Allow The Lord to speak to you and encourage you.

The Missing Prayer of The Crestfallen Warrior










As I looked at our brethren being tortured and killed
My heart grew weary, my soul would not be stilled

I struggled with my heart, and was angry with The Comfortable
How can we rest, while our brethren sufferings, are so horrible

I cried out to God, to give me a prayer, that was not being prayed
To wake up The Body, for the closing of days

Give me the prayer that the saints are missing
Because they are focused on things of man, while the things of God, they are dismissing.

I see a saint being crucified, in the streets
While a pastor dressed like a king, sleeps on gold threaded sheets

I see churches burned down, and poor pastors martyred
While a preacher is broadcasting from his mansion, saying how much he has suffered

So.....
I cried out to God, to give me a prayer, that was not being prayed

To wake up The Body, for the closing of days






Give me the prayer that the saints are missing
Because they are focused on things of man, while the things of God, they are dismissing.

I see a family being burned alive

While a millionaire "prophet" offers a prophecy for 19.95

I see a child weeping in pain
While a minister, orders his servants to remove a carpet stain

So....

I cried out to God, to give me a prayer, that was not being prayed
To wake up The Body, for the closing of days

Give me the prayer that the saints are missing
Because they are focused on things of man, while the things of God, they are dismissing.....

Holy Spirit help us pray. Only YOU can give us The Prayer that is not being prayed.
ONLY YOU, through that prayer, can stir up your body, making us ready for That Day.

We know according to Your Word that the present suffering is nothing compared to The Glory that will be revealed in us!! Return Quickly Oh LORD!!



Until then, EMPOWER us to Pray The Prayers That Are Not Being Prayed!!!




Romans 8:26-28Amplified Bible (AMP)

26 So too the [Holy] Spirit comes to our aid and bears us up in our weakness; for we do not know what prayer to offer nor how to offer it worthily as we ought, but the Spirit Himself goes to meet our supplication and pleads in our behalf with unspeakable yearnings and groanings too deep for utterance.
27 And He Who searches the hearts of men knows what is in the mind of the [Holy] Spirit [what His intent is], because the Spirit intercedes and pleads [before God] in behalf of the saints according to and in harmony with God’s will.
28 We are assured and know that [God being a partner in their labor] all things work together and are [fitting into a plan] for good to and for those who love God and are called according to [His] design and purpose.

Spiritual Warfare-Prayer


This is an Iron Dome Unit and a Tomahawk Missile. Prayer can be used as a Defensive and Offensive Weapon. Let those called to advance The Kingdom of Heaven, take our place among the ranks. Like Davids Mighty Men of Valor, let us defend our fields and take the land we are called to take! 

Let us be the one that say: "Not on our watch" , to the enemies that would try and thwart Gods plan and take out His people. 






Philippians 4:6-7(NKJV)

Be anxious for nothing, but in everything by prayer and supplication, with thanksgiving, let your requests be made known to God; and the peace of God, which surpasses all understanding, will guard your hearts and minds through Christ Jesus.


2 Corinthians 10:3-5(NKJV)

For though we walk in the flesh, we do not war according to the flesh. For the weapons of our warfare are not carnal but mighty in God for pulling down strongholds,casting down arguments and every high thing that exalts itself against the knowledge of God, bringing every thought into captivity to the obedience of Christ,


Hebrews 4:12 (AMP)

12 For the Word that God speaks is alive and full of power [making it active, operative, energizing, and effective]; it is sharper than any two-edged sword, penetrating to the dividing line of the breath of life (soul) and [the immortal] spirit, and of joints and marrow [of the deepest parts of our nature], exposing and sifting and analyzing and judging the very thoughts and purposes of the heart.

The Bar and The Church




When we walk in the spirit we see things a bit differently than most people. I found myself in a bar last night night, no I have not back-slidden, I was there with family to watch my wife's Grandfather sing a song. He is in town from Florida and loves to Karaoke.

This particular bar was right down the street from the restaurant we went out to eat at in Solvay, NY.  As I stood there I could sense a spirit there, almost  watching me, not really trying to tempt me, but just hovering around wondering what I was doing there.

As I stood there I could also hear The Lord begin to speak to my heart about that place and places like it. He began to show me things about the people there, the people who have been there and many of the people who frequent bars.

I understand what He showed me doesn't fit everyone, and I am in no way judging anyone for going to a bar. However I do feel led to share what He spoke to my heart.

He began to show me this place and the church. He began to show me how many come to the bars to refresh themselves in a way. Many at the end of the week go there to shake off the pressures of life, relax, have a few drinks to relax, maybe get a little drunk and have fun.

I saw the Church as well. Those of us who know what it is like to be filled with The Spirit and sense the anointing know how refreshing it is and how The Holy Spirit comforts us and strengthens us at the end of a tough week.

He again showed me how many seek this type of thing at bars. However He then began to show me the dark side of it. He spoke to me these words:

How many have walked in here during a dry season of their marriage, whether it be a dry season sexually, emotionally, seasons all marriages will face from time to time, and destroyed their marriage in this place. How many families have been broken because a man our women sought an escape in this place.

How many lives ruined, destinies changed, and even  lives ended leaving places like this. All because they sought comfort in a place that offered a temporary comfort in the wrong place.

I am now writing from my spirit man. I see again The Church and what she is meant to be to a hurting and thirsty world. Think about some of the things Jesus said and what is said in The Word about The Lord and The Church:

"Come unto me all you who are burden, feeling the worlds pressures and feel the weight of sin and life and I will give you rest, for my burden is light and my yoke is easy."

"All who drinks of the my well will never thirst again"

"Cast all your care upon The Lord"

Throughout The Gospels and The Book of ACTS we see a demonstration of what The Church is supposed to be demonstrating to The World. A place of healing,comfort,safety and refuge.

We are to be a place, where those who The Lord draws, can come and experience His very real presence and be touched by His Holy Spirit as He continues to save, heal and set those in bondage free.

Believers should be coming,expecting The Lord to continue His ministry to them, and through them, to those He draws. Married couples who are in one of those dry seasons can come and be filled with joy and contentment in His presence and learn to love each other unconditionally, no matter if, for a time, "their needs" are not being "met".

The Church is supposed to be a place full of life and power, love and strength. The Word should be preached and taught by those who believe it and expect it to be Alive and Actively powerful, full of ability and strength, able to divide between the soul and spirit and show each person the true intents of their own hearts so God can heal and instruct them in His ways.

What does this all have to do with the few moments I spent in that little bar?? I am not sure, but The Lord will speak to somebody through this, maybe save a marriage, a family, a life. Or just use it to introduce somebody to Himself and draw them to himself.

We have a responsibility to make sure that His House stays, or in some places, returns to being a place of salvation, healing, deliverance and a place where Heaven invades Earth!!!

Your Kingdom Come by Daniel Kolenda



I had to post this book on my blog. It is one of the best books on prayer and intercession that I have read. It is simple, yet powerful, short, yet filled with so much that note takers will come away with many nuggets of wisdom.

Here is a short excerpt from the book:

"In order for us to seize the moment that God has given to our generation, it is going to require a strategic, divine alliance between soul-winners and intercessors who will unite around the agenda of Jesus- to seek and to save those who are lost."

Words of Power!




The gift of creative speech was only given to man. Our words have power. Every war was started by the words of man. Every life path whether good or bad was strongly influenced by the words spoken over that person. All teaching comes through words spoken, written or demonstrated. Creative words or destructive words are what shape lives, families, cities and nations.

Take that into account when you think about the awe inspiring gift that Christ bestowed upon us as The WORD of God made flesh. He gave all who accept Him and are washed by His Blood open access to The Throne of God. A redeemed man or woman can use their Words to stand before Gods throne, receive Gods Will in Heaven and then speak it into The Earth.

We have been given the commission to use words to preach The Gospel to every creature. We have been commanded to ask, expecting to receive. We have been drafted into an army that uses His WORD, spoken and declared by our mouths(our words) to expose, decimate the Kingdom of Darkness, by declaring Freedom to The Captives and Telling them The Kingdom of Heaven has come!!!!

Speak His WORD! Pray His WORD!! See His WORD manifest His GLORY!

Peace Of Christ




The Lord brought to my attention the scriptures below while speaking to me about having peace in a time of trouble. He showed me the importance of The Church and her leaders understanding that while the nations may rage, while governments and the world may become chaotic and fearful, He has given us all we need to meet every need in peace.

From that place of peace we will be able to be a refuge by pointing toward the One who is the Only Safe Place(Psalm 91). He also will supply all we need both naturally and supernaturally to meet every need, both spiritually and physically.


Luke 2:41-49
New King James Version

41 His parents went to Jerusalem every year at the Feast of the Passover. 42 And when He was twelve years old, they went up to Jerusalem according to the custom of the feast. 43 When they had finished the days, as they returned, the Boy Jesus lingered behind in Jerusalem. And Joseph and His mother did not know it; 44 but supposing Him to have been in the company, they went a day’s journey, and sought Him among their relatives and acquaintances.

45 So when they did not find Him, they returned to Jerusalem, seeking Him. 46 Now so it was that after three days they found Him in the temple, sitting in the midst of the teachers, both listening to them and asking them questions. 47 And all who heard Him were astonished at His understanding and answers. 48 So when they saw Him, they were amazed; and His mother said to Him, “Son, why have You done this to us? Look, Your father and I have sought You anxiously.”

49 And He said to them, “Why did you seek Me? Did you not know that I must be about My Father’s business?”


Matthew 14:25-32
New King James Version

25 Now in the fourth watch of the night Jesus went to them, walking on the sea. 26 And when the disciples saw Him walking on the sea, they were troubled, saying, “It is a ghost!” And they cried out for fear.

27 But immediately Jesus spoke to them, saying, “Be of good cheer! It is I; do not be afraid.”
28 And Peter answered Him and said, “Lord, if it is You, command me to come to You on the water.”

29 So He said, “Come.” And when Peter had come down out of the boat, he walked on the water to go to Jesus. 30 But when he saw that the wind was boisterous, he was afraid; and beginning to sink he cried out, saying, “Lord, save me!”

31 And immediately Jesus stretched out His hand and caught him, and said to him, “O you of little faith, why did you doubt?” 32 And when they got into the boat, the wind ceased.



Mark 4:35-39 New King James Version

35 On the same day, when evening had come, He said to them, “Let us cross over to the other side.” 36 Now when they had left the multitude, they took Him along in the boat as He was. And other little boats were also with Him. 37 And a great windstorm arose, and the waves beat into the boat, so that it was already filling. 38 But He was in the stern, asleep on a pillow. And they awoke Him and said to Him, “Teacher, do You not care that we are perishing?”

39 Then He arose and rebuked the wind, and said to the sea, “Peace, be still!” And the wind ceased and there was a great calm.



Mark 6:35-44
New King James Version

35 When the day was now far spent, His disciples came to Him and said, “This is a deserted place, and already the hour is late. 36 Send them away, that they may go into the surrounding country and villages and buy themselves bread;for they have nothing to eat.”

37 But He answered and said to them, “You give them something to eat.”
And they said to Him, “Shall we go and buy two hundred denarii worth of bread and give them something to eat?”

38 But He said to them, “How many loaves do you have? Go and see.”
And when they found out they said, “Five, and two fish.”

39 Then He commanded them to make them all sit down in groups on the green grass. 40 So they sat down in ranks, in hundreds and in fifties. 41 And when He had taken the five loaves and the two fish, He looked up to heaven, blessed and broke the loaves, and gave them to His disciples to set before them; and the two fish He divided among them all. 42 So they all ate and were filled. 43 And they took up twelve baskets full of fragments and of the fish. 44 Now those who had eaten the loaves were about five thousand men.


Psalm 91

New Living Translation

1 Those who live in the shelter of the Most High
will find rest in the shadow of the Almighty.

2 This I declare about the Lord:
He alone is my refuge, my place of safety;
he is my God, and I trust him.

3 For he will rescue you from every trap
and protect you from deadly disease.

4 He will cover you with his feathers.
He will shelter you with his wings.
His faithful promises are your armor and protection.

5 Do not be afraid of the terrors of the night,
nor the arrow that flies in the day.

6 Do not dread the disease that stalks in darkness,
nor the disaster that strikes at midday.

7 Though a thousand fall at your side,
though ten thousand are dying around you,
these evils will not touch you.

8 Just open your eyes,
and see how the wicked are punished.

9 If you make the Lord your refuge,
if you make the Most High your shelter,

10 no evil will conquer you;
no plague will come near your home.

11 For he will order his angels
to protect you wherever you go.

12 They will hold you up with their hands
so you won’t even hurt your foot on a stone.

13 You will trample upon lions and cobras;
you will crush fierce lions and serpents under your feet!

14 The Lord says, “I will rescue those who love me.
I will protect those who trust in my name.

15 When they call on me, I will answer;
I will be with them in trouble.
I will rescue and honor them.

16 I will reward them with a long life
and give them my salvation.”

Seeing Into The Next Age



There are times The Lord will give us a prophetic word or song and it applies to now. There are times it will apply to the near future. Then there are times when it will apply to now, the near future and the coming age.


This I believe is one of those "Words"

The Word says in Jude 1:14-15

14 Now Enoch, the seventh from Adam, prophesied about these men also, saying, “Behold, the Lord comes with ten thousands of His saints, 15 to execute judgment on all, to convict all who are ungodly among them of all their ungodly deeds which they have committed in an ungodly way, and of all the harsh things which ungodly sinners have spoken against Him.”

Rev 19:11-16 it says:

11 Now I saw heaven opened, and behold, a white horse. And He who sat on him was called Faithful and True, and in righteousness He judges and makes war. 12 His eyes were like a flame of fire, and on His head were many crowns. He had a name written that no one knew except Himself. 13 He was clothed with a robe dipped in blood, and His name is called The Word of God. 14 And the armies in heaven, clothed in fine linen, white and clean, followed Him on white horses. 15 Now out of His mouth goes a sharp sword, that with it He should strike the nations. And He Himself will rule them with a rod of iron. He Himself treads the winepress of the fierceness and wrath of Almighty God. 16 And He has on His robe and on His thigh a name written:

KING OF KINGS AND
LORD OF LORDS.


I posted this song/poem the other day: Here it is again in light of the verses above.


I see, I see, a mighty, mighty army
I see, I see, them marching in victory

I see, I see, The Name of The Lord
I see, I see, an invasion into the nations of The World

I see, I see, their uniforms dripping with His Blood
I see, I see, His Spirit sending before them a Great Flood

I see, I see, the forces bowing before The Procession
I see , I see, they can not touch Gods Precious Possessions

I see , I see, the earth quaking beneath them
I see, I see, dead stones turning into Gems

Jesus! Jesus! Jesus! Jesus! We come in His Majesty's Name

Oh what more Lord, what more, as they march in Your Name
Oh what more Lord, what more, will they heal the blind sick and lame

Oh what more Lord, what more, as they declare your will
Oh what more Lord, what more, will the raging of the nations finally be stilled

What will I see, What will I see, at the end of this Great March
What will, I see What will I see, when your troops reach the City Arch

What will I see, what will I see, for ear has not heard, nor eye seen
What glorious victories you have prepared for Your Blood Bought Redeemed!

Jesus! Jesus! Jesus! Jesus! We come in His Majesty's Name

I see, I see, a mighty, mighty army
I see, I see, them marching in victory

I see, I see, The Name of The Lord
I see, I see, an invasion into the nations of The World

I see, I see, their uniforms dripping with His Blood
I see, I see, His Spirit sending before them a Great Flood

I see, I see, the forces bowing before The Procession
I see , I see, they can not touch Gods Precious Possessions

I see , I see, the earth quaking beneath them
I see, I see, dead stones turning into Gems

Jesus! Jesus! Jesus! Jesus! We come in His Majesty's Name
