For a while now I have had the building revelation from the Lord that we are in the greatest spiritual battle we have ever been in. Where the enemy used to hide, He is now outright revealing himself and he is doing so in and through every possible way.
I also felt the onslaught against daughters of God. The enemy has been working overtime in the last year to take out those God is raising up in this hour. God has shown me that where there is no possible way to make some stop believing, the enemy has tried to overwork with “shoulds”. Where he has whispered to you about 10 different things you should be going after in order to leave you in a frenzy and derail you from what God has for you right now. I saw depression, and suicide try to convince many women to shutdown and let this spirit in and take over their lives.
For the onslaught against men, I saw a spirit of deception coming after every single office in the five-fold. It has worked and twisted its way in where it could. It has either made you stop believing or believed different things about God opposite to His nature. I also saw the enemy causing men to believe “new theology” causing them to feel like they’ve discovered what we’ve all missed when in fact this theology is not biblical but demonic and these people are beginning to build ministries on these “newfound” ideas. What’s worse, these people really love the Lord, so their “new theology” is quite convincing.
This has been super heavy and weighty. I myself have cried and prayed and felt weighted under my own spiritual attack in this last season. The enemy has tried to do every single thing to take us all out. Whether by making you sleepy, judgmental, overworked, consumed with things like jobs, appearance, money. He has bright clouds of sadness and depression and many are blinded by the truth! Our only hope is in God and His word testing every single thing with scripture and putting Him first, every single morning.
I feel the Lord saying “it is not by might, but by my spirit that you will make it through this dark hour. Stay close to me for the enemy is roaming around looking for someone to devour. I can and I will set you free from all of your attackers. You must be still and know that I am God. Don’t allow yourself to fight for yourself. I am fighting for you. Contrary to popular belief, when you rest in me you come out stronger and safer than if you were to fight your way out. You must trust and believe that I am who I say I am for you.”
“So he said to me, “This is the word of the Lord to Zerubbabel: ‘Not by might nor by power, but by my Spirit,’ says the Lord Almighty.”
Zechariah 4:6 NIV
“He says, “Be still, and know that I am God; I will be exalted among the nations, I will be exalted in the earth.””
Psalms 46:10 NIV
“Be alert and of sober mind. Your enemy the devil prowls around like a roaring lion looking for someone to devour.”
