We need trained, skilled watchmen who have courage and discernment, with the courage it will take to handle situations we may find ourselves in. When a lion is about to attack remember He who is in you is greater then he who in the world.
You are drawn to the supernatural because you are called to a supernatural life, and you are being prepared for the last battle which will be supernatural. Many of you are called as prophets. The foundation of prophetic ministry is being a watchman. We are in need of watchmen, and you are in need of the experience.
This is they year to watch what is happening and praying the Father's will in a situation. Beware of the critical spirit that is in many self-proclaimed watchmen. There are a number of reasons for this, but the main one could be that the people who have the gifts and callings have not taken their place, so others who are not called to do it fill the void.
It destroys and does not build up. I think it is rooted in unforgiveness, or having disappointment and wounds that never healed.
To become overly critical and negative is a trap set especially for those who are called to be watchmen and prophets.
Some of the good things about this calling. We are called to walk by faith, not fear, but our basic purpose is to look for the right path, not just the wrong ones. For this reason, the watchmen are usually the first to see the wonders and the glory.
We are changed into the image of what we behold, and if we're just looking at and studying the enemy all of the time we can start to take on his nature. Biblical watchmen were also to be on the lookout for the coming of the King or His messengers, to warn the people of their approach so that they could have a proper reception prepared.
It is true that critical people rarely build anything, but just tear down. If the true called ones would rise up and take their place as watchmen for the body, and learn to do it the right way.
There is a lot of danger involved. You will be in the front line, and when there is danger you will be the first to face it. It will take a lot of courage, and it will take wisdom and discernment. One has to mature quickly to do this job.
See every problem as an opportunity, that is a basic leadership principle. What they needed is to be shown respect, to be valued and given a purpose. Our deepest heart desire touches what we were created for.
From the Father's Heart.
