Warfare Armor
The blessing is that He maketh my way perfect, my feet like hind’s feet and setteth me upon high places. The Warning is to cleanse yourself from any unrighteousness first, and to put on your spiritual armor. Letting the high praises of the Father be in your mouth. Being a solider in the Father’s army is an honor to be able to carry out the assignments of the L-rd against His and your enemies in the spiritual realm and to restore His people back to Him for He is giving you the weapons to fight with. We are able to do this warfare only by the authority of the blood of the Messiah, the blood that covers you as a born again believer into the family of G-d. Not only does His blood cover you, but it flows thru you and out of you. You are to be a torch that is the light from His presence; breathing the air of heaven, not earth and as a torchbearer you must stay close to the Creator. No power on earth can put it out if you walk with the Father in this realm. Its brightness and power depend on the life of the torchbearer, and on how close you stay to the Creator. You will know other torchbearers by the fire that already is in them, follow the smoking footprints. They will never be content with religious practices for they yearn for the Father and the reality of His realm. Their hearts desire is His fellowship and He will be their inheritance! The symbolic significance of the sword represents the Word of the L-rd being applied against the principalities and powers caused in the heavenlies. It is the power of His redemption and the one who carries it must be in unity with His redemptive purposes. The sword emitted light and the light coming from it is many different colors; it cannot be destroyed, but will stand forever for this is the Father’s armory. There is no power on earth that is stronger than His redemption. With this sword those that you bless will be bless and will prosper. When you learn to love the most wretched and most worthless, even those who are in the grips of the deep darkness, then His Word of redemption is truly established in your heart and the power of His redemption will flow through you. Do not become discouraged by how dark it becomes, or how many rise up against you. You cannot lose if you do not retreat. We can free the captives with the truth of G-d’s love, for many have never known true love in their life and if we can love them faithfully they will be free. The sword can break any yoke, and cut through any chain for His light is stronger than any darkness. All people are His sheep even if they don’t know it yet. To fight this fight won’t be by hurting them but helping them. You are also given the cloak of humility that will be your covering and shield. Wear it with honor; feel His arms wrapped around you for you are under the shelter of His wings. When one has a part of a mantle which comes together with one who has another part, their authority will be magnified. The truth is that there is no de-militarized zone in this battle but, if you will realize the authority that you carry in His name, then and only then will you get victory over the battle. You are physically marching out your victory over the enemy. You will strike at the enemy every time you praise, dance and worship the Father. You are marching against principalities and powers and wickedness in the heavenlies. Offensive mode is attacking for you are the head and not the tail. As a Seasoned Warrior you must be ready to defeat them when they fight; destroying them completely for retreat is not an option! It is better to have a few who are in unity than many who are divided, and who do not have a single, focused vision. The Father’s truth is what we must have and love it enough to be willing to die for it! Your victory over this evil horde is to convert its soldiers. Then you must teach them to drink from the fountain of life. You must add to them others and they must go forth to conquer. If you will fight and not give up, you cannot lose. You must do more than just set them free from the bondage they are in. You must train, equip, and release them to go and recover the rivers of life that the enemy has stopped up, and heal the streams of the river that have been polluted, and buried. Do not become discouraged by how dark it becomes, or how many rise up against you. You cannot lose if you do not retreat. You can free the captives with the truth of G-d’s love, for many have never known true love in their life and if you can love them faithfully they will be free. Life which transforms experience into wisdom so when completely surrounded, your faith will give you courage to keep moving even when you are attacked and you can make it through their ranks. Do not falter to insults and ridicule for it will make you turn back for the lack of approval of people. No one can make it through who cares too much about what others think of them. The only ones who can survive and prevail in this battle are those who spend as much time making other leaders as they do leading. Remember it does not matter who is out there, but what matters is Who is in you so go with the strength He has given you instead of trying to find a weakness in the enemy. For you have learned that one can put a thousand to flight, and two can put ten thousand to flight (Deut. 32:30). Now you are going to learn that one can gather a thousand, and two of us together can gather ten thousand! You are also given a flask of oil, this oil of unity is the anointing that will cleanse your mind for where you must walk on the earth there is must dust and dirt, which will be thrown at you every day. You must learn to come to the Father to be cleansed again whenever your mind has been soiled. As often as you do this you will not be able to stand any filth in this world, but will love the purity and clear vision which comes only by this anointing of the Holy Spirit. After donning our spiritual armor the L-rd will go before you and call forth His heavenly host to fight with you as you claim back what the adversary has stolen. You conclude this battle by once again claiming G-d’s absolute victory, His wondrous intervention on behalf of the saints, you ask the L-rd to send His Holy Spirit in to inhabit and take control of that area that you have just proclaimed for Him. With all these weapons you are now dress in full armor to join the L-rd’s army. Use all the weapons wisely and march forward knowing that ‘Greater is He who is in you then he who is in the world! You were born for such a time as this - do not be afraid of what comes on the earth for you are a Seasoned Warrior in with a great commission. Blessed are those who have been chosen for the honor of fighting the L-rd’s great fight.
